The woman in the painting…
Uh-huh?
He has a crooked and grotesque appearance, very postmodern in style, so it's quite reasonable for him to come to Wujian to find this woman.
It's probably only here that you can find women with such unusual appearances.
Whose daughter has three and a half faces, one ear, and four eyes?
Oh, except for Yanxiu, she seems to have four eyes.
After looking at the painting, Su Diandian finally focused her gaze on the man's face.
What a handsome face...
But why is this person's hair covered with silver bells?
Doesn't it make noise when it walks?
The key point is that if you are fighting the enemy and can't defeat them, you'll run away with your phone ringing all the way.
Tsk, he'll be caught any minute now.
Seeing that no one answered, the man frowned slightly and asked again, "Excuse me, shopkeeper, have you seen this woman?"
At this moment, Su Diandian keenly noticed that the handsome man's eyes were dull and lifeless, suggesting that he was visually impaired.
The portly shopkeeper bowed to Lu Jian and said, "Lord Ghost Lord, I'll go and take care of this first."
Only after receiving Lu Jian's approval did he jog over to the man. "Ancient silver ornaments are also blessed with magic, they are quite valuable."
The man tilted his head, and the silver bell jingled.
Seeing that the man was about to get angry, the fat shopkeeper then leaned closer to examine the painting carefully.
"Sir, are you sure this is a girl? To me it looks like a monster that has swallowed a lot of ghosts."
With the clinking of silver ornaments, the man suddenly stepped forward and grabbed the fat shopkeeper by the neck: "She is my wife, not some monster!"
"Alright, alright, I'm not a monster." The fat shopkeeper quickly admitted his mistake. It wasn't that he was afraid of being choked; he was a ghost, so being choked wouldn't do him any harm.
He just didn't want to waste his time on such boring things.
Why not hurry up and finish this so you can go make money off Lord Ghost?
The portly shopkeeper spoke again, "I haven't seen this woman before. Sir, you'd better look for her elsewhere."
Upon hearing this, the man's face showed disappointment, and he silently released the fat shopkeeper's neck.
But he soon realized there were still people in the shop, so he picked up the scroll and turned it toward Su Diandian and Lu Jian.
"Gentlemen, have you seen this woman before?"
Su Diandian stroked her chin and muttered to herself, "I've never seen anyone look like this, but I have seen people with similar eyes."
Yanxiu has four eyes, one in front and one behind, just like in the portrait.
The man flashed in front of her and grabbed her wrist: "Please take me to find this woman."
Lu Jian frowned and slapped him away, saying, "Don't touch my wife."
"I'm sorry..." There was a hint of loneliness in the man's otherwise lifeless eyes.
Su Diandian tugged at Lu Jian and whispered, "Why don't we do something kind and take him to look for her? I think the portrait does bear some resemblance to Yan Xiu."
Lu Jian remained silent for a long time before finally saying, "I will send my men to find Yanxiu."
“Hey, that works too.” After saying that, Su Diandian told the man covered in silver ornaments, “Wait here. Someone will bring a female ghost who looks like the person in this portrait later.”
"Medicine hope," the man suddenly said.
“Hello Medicine King, I am Ga King, the King who can’t be choked off no matter what.” Su Diandian started to tease, “You’re really arrogant, calling yourself Medicine King right off the bat.”
The man explained, “My name is Yao, and my father’s name is Wang, so you can call me Yao Wang, the Wang of hope.”
“The system of paternal and son sharing the same name means this soul is from the Miao region,” Lu Jian told Su Diandian.
"A living soul?" Su Diandian was surprised and puzzled at the same time.
Is the Ghost Realm of No Return some kind of tourist attraction?
Why do they all seem to want to squeeze into this place?
Thinking of this, she nudged Lu Jian with her elbow: "If living souls can enter the Avici Hell, then can you ghost cultivators go up there too?"
Lu Jian's eyes held a deep sense of regret and helplessness.
Once a dead soul enters the Abyss, there is no return.
Unless, of course, the Ghost Realm of No Return can be blasted open.
But if that's really the case...
Ordinary people will be the ones to suffer.
"We've found Yanxiu, and she'll be sent over soon." Lu Jian didn't directly answer Su Diandian's question.
“Oh, okay.” Su Diandian raised her voice and told Yao Wang, “The female ghost who looks like the girl in your portrait will be here soon. Just wait patiently.”
Yao Wang nodded, then turned and stared blankly at the shop entrance.
Su Diandian refocused her attention on the jewelry.
It's a pity that I can't take these exquisite and beautiful little trinkets home.
Lu Jian picked up a completely translucent bracelet.
The portly shopkeeper immediately introduced, "This is the Lingxiao Mist Dream Bracelet, which is carved with a scene of surging clouds and sea. The jade is delicate and warm, and it is a rare and exquisite piece in the world."
Lu Jian took Su Diandian's hand and put the bracelet on her wrist.
Su Diandian shook her wrist: "This bracelet is really beautiful. It's a pity that I forgot all the cheesy words I learned in high school after entering college, otherwise I would definitely compose a poem."
No sooner had she finished speaking than Yanxiu was dragged into the shop by a man emanating black energy.
As soon as Yanxiu saw Su Diandian, she hurriedly cried out, "Master, Master, save me!"
At Lu Jian's signal, Yan Xiu finally regained her freedom.
Su Diandian waved to her, signaling her to come over.
After the two got close together, Su Diandian asked in a low voice, "Yanxiu, do you know that blind man? He said he's looking for his wife."
“He wants to find a wife… and me…” Yan Xiu said, but turned her head and saw Yao Wang, who was exceptionally handsome.
She changed the subject, "Of course it has something to do with me."
As she spoke, she patted her chest and declared, "I am his wife, and he is my husband."
"Really?" Su Diandian looked at the portrait, then at Yanxiu.
You know what, the more you look at it, the more it resembles it.
She shoved Yanxiu in front of Yaowang, "Yaowang, look at this woman, isn't she your wife?"
A blush rose to her cheeks, and she pouted as she threw herself into the medicine potion's arms: "Husband..."
She's really made something of herself, managing to get close to a handsome man. It's just that the silver jewelry he's wearing is a bit uncomfortable.
Just as she was thinking this, Yao Wang moved.
He conjured a scorpion-tailed short blade, raised his arm, and sliced off Yanxiu's head.
Yanxiu screamed in terror as her head hit the ground, rolling towards Su Diandian.
"Master, Master, kill the ghost! Kill the ghost!"
Su Diandian angrily stepped forward and grabbed Yan Xiu's other half of her body, scolding, "Yao Wang, how can you be so unreasonable?"
"Even if she wasn't your wife, you shouldn't have hurt a ghost."
Yao Wang's expression was ferocious, and even his blind eyes were filled with malice.
"Damn it, she deserves to die!"
Su Diandian rolled up her sleeves, unconvinced. "Yanxiu didn't impersonate me on purpose, why are you being so fierce?"
But Yao Wang ignored her and slipped out of the jewelry store.
Before leaving, he kept muttering, "Find her, kill her... kill her."
Su Diandian bent down, picked up Yanxiu's head, and placed it back on her neck.
Yanxiu moved her neck before complaining, "Why are there so many living souls coming to the Abyss lately? We don't see one for decades."
