Chapter 23: The Immortal in the Book



He glanced at Niu Da, went up and punched Lao Niu hard, then said nothing and stood behind Kong Hanan.

"There is a sin in this world called stupidity. Today I will convince you sincerely."

Kong Hanan ignored Ma Mian. The pretentious man never looked back. He pointed at the thatched hut and continued.

"How can your man afford to buy books when he lives in a house like this? He spends so much time reading a book. What could be in it that would make him neglect his wife?"

The series of questions startled the female ghost Xiaowan.

"An ordinary scholar, just by reading a book, can develop talent and help Niu Da improve his cultivation? Ha, have you two ever thought that there is something wrong with this book?"

"So, the one who is truly talented is not this scholar, but this book. You have all been deceived."

Kong Hanan kicked the book at his feet and said, "Why don't you come out? I happen to have a rare book in my hand. How about a comparison?"

A graceful figure in white floated out of the book and fell to the ground.

"My little fairy Yan Ruyu, I pay my respects to you, sir."

"You're just a mere worm, yet you dare to call yourself an immortal?"

Kong Hanan shook his head.

The prototype of Maiwang is the bookworm, a kind of bookworm monster. It is recorded in "Youyang Zazu": If the bookworm eats three immortal characters, it will turn into this creature, named Maiwang.

The reason why Kong Hanan knew this so clearly was because there was a time when he really wanted to catch a pulse-seeking creature.

The book says that this monster is beneficial to humans and that if you eat it, you can gain a vast amount of knowledge.

But now that he encountered it, Kong Hanan felt a little disgusted.

The records in the book are not entirely correct, this kind of monster can also harm people.

"If I'm not mistaken, the scholar's decline is related to you, right? What's the connection between you and Yinfeng Mountain?"

Yan Ruyu smiled and said, "Since you know that I have connections with Yinfeng Mountain, why do you want to ruin Yinfeng Mountain's business?"

Kong Hanan shook his head and didn't want to respond.

As early as when Kong Hanan heard the news from Li Wujiu, he already felt that something was wrong.

The female ghost is tied up with soul-catching chains, so she should not tell lies. So the question is.

The ghost cultivator from Yinfeng Mountain is at least at the Spirit Transformation Realm. Why would he care about a mere scholar?

Not only did he help him exorcise the ghost, he also kindly used Niu Da to help him prolong his life.

Moreover, how come Xiaowan just happened to hear the method of becoming a wronged spirit?

Niu is a monster from the underworld, and all his cultivation lies in his Yin energy. How could this scholar possibly withstand it? Isn't this torturing him?

Thinking of torture, Kong Hanan couldn't help but think of Gu Qiang and the evil magic that could change one's fate.

"You have been depriving people of their destiny. What are you trying to achieve?"

Kong Hanan sighed.
