Chapter 206: Different Paths to the Same End - Opening the Coffin
Her way of praising others is usually pretty good.
Yan Weiwan hummed twice.
"That's natural."
It was so rare for Master to praise her! She was overjoyed! She was also very satisfied with what she had done.
Yesterday she brought the token home. When her mother saw her, she was really shocked. After hearing her talk about this, she immediately sent people to come overnight and did not stop for a moment.
Nan Lezhi looked at A Yuan in the distance, whose resentment had almost dissipated and who had turned into a translucent shape.
"Now that we've avenged ourselves, I'll take you to find her. You take her with you and leave, sending her to the underworld. You two... go to the underworld together, and leave the rest to us!"
Her words were reassuring. A Yuan nodded with tears in her eyes, floated behind them, and planned to follow them.
She was going to find A Lian, finally she could be together with her and see her again.
"Thank you, Immortal."
A Yuan said goodbye to Bai Yunshu and the others. Bai Yunshu smiled and nodded, saying, "It's a small matter."
Seeing Nan Lezhi taking Yan Weiwan and A Yuan away to Ji's house, Bai Yunshu looked at Qi Ningzhu and asked her tentatively.
"My little disciple, have you had enough fun these past few days? Have you gained anything?"
"Gain? Of course I've gained a lot. I've learned a lot of techniques that I hadn't learned before, and my cultivation has also improved a lot."
She combed her hair while reading Bai Yunshu, and finally said something that Bai Yunshu liked to hear.
"The greatest reward is having a heart full of my Master."
Bai Yunshu was amused by her and asked for her opinion.
"The mission is complete. So... shall we return to the peak? There are gifts on the peak."
Hearing the word Huifeng, Qi Ningzhu nodded.
"good!"
She acted very expectant, but deep down, she was questioning Fu Sheng.
"Fusheng, are you ready? The power you promised to lend me is enough to compete with Tao Yiye."
Fusheng was confident and told her to relax.
"Of course, not only can I compete with her, but I can also surpass her. I will help you, unconditionally."
In this life, reading Baiyunshu is particularly unpleasant.
This woman Bai Yunshu! She finally managed to gather some ghost energy! And she took it out and gave it to someone else! Damn it!
At the same time, she was afraid that Qi Ningzhu would regret it again or become uncertain and be bewitched by Bai Yunshu again.
Now it seems that it shouldn't.
Qi Ningzhu went back this time for only one thing, and that was to avenge Tao Yiye for pushing her.
She has to pay it back eventually. She is not a generous person.
After hearing Qi Ningzhu's agreement, Bai Yunshu took her hand.
"Let's go. Master will take you back slowly. Don't be in a hurry. Let's take a look at the mountains and rivers along the way."
She suggested, and Qi Ningzhu nodded, thinking that it was not a big deal for the time being, so he let her hold his hand.
She felt her warm palm, and her inner anxiety was finally soothed a little.
In the Ji Mansion, when Mr. Ji heard that they were going to open the coffin and dig out the body, he refused.
"She's already been buried, why open the coffin? She's the one my son married rightfully!"
"Legitimate?"
Nan Lezhi sneered.
"Master Ji, do you want wealth? Or do you want your life?"
As she asked, Master Ji's expression changed.
Of course he wanted both, but nothing is perfect in the world. You can't have your cake and eat it too. Just like no matter how rich his family is, none of his four sons is successful.
He did not answer, but let Mrs. Ji speak first.
"Of course it's fatal. If I lose my life, what's the point of having so much money? Immortal, please give me some advice!"
Mrs. Ji cried bitterly, her heart was broken, and her words were full of fear.
Ever since this female ghost haunted the Ji family, she hasn't slept for several nights.
As soon as she closed her eyes, the female ghost stood in front of her, asking her to return her life.
Nan Lezhi glanced at Yan Weiwan, who immediately understood and spoke.
"Master Ji, your family is in turmoil. My master and I came to help, but you refused to even tell us the truth. Your daughter-in-law died unjustly and eventually turned into a ghost. If you don't open the coffin now, I'm afraid your family will be in danger."
After she finished speaking, she rolled her eyes at Master Ji, her face full of contempt.
"You used her for a ghost marriage without even asking for her opinion. Now that something's happened, you're still slandering her, saying she poisoned her. What a vicious heart you have."
After she finished speaking, Mrs. Ji quickly apologized.
"This... this matter, we are sorry. We just wanted a good reputation at the time, so we lied. Immortal, please save our Ji family."
The Ji family worked hard for a long time to gain this reputation, wanting to get rid of the impression of banditry from others. Giving out porridge and building temples were naturally also for that reputation.
Once you have money, you will naturally care more about things.
Master Ji was completely puzzled and said, "How could she have died unjustly? Although we did use her for a ghost marriage, she is dead. If she were alive, we wouldn't dare do this!"
He had already asked and it was indeed bought by a dead person.
Yan Weiwan coughed lightly.
"Whether she's dead or not, just open the coffin and take a look. She's standing behind you right now, asking you to open the coffin. If you don't believe me, look back."
She also learned bad habits from Qi Ningzhu and started talking without thinking.
However, Nan Lezhi reminded Yan Weiwan in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
"Have you become more capable? You can actually see?"
Yan Weiwan's expression changed.
"Master, I just said it casually. I don't think she's really here. Will this offend her..."
She asked in a low voice, Nan Lezhi curled his lips but said nothing, his eyes were full of guessing.
When she does this, it usually means she agrees.
Yan Weiwan didn't dare to speak casually.
She was not without any basis for her guess. After all, A Yuan's eyes were always on the back of Master Ji, so she guessed something.
Master Ji had been tortured to the point of nervous breakdown these days, so naturally he didn't dare to look back.
He immediately changed the tone of his conversation.
"What a sin! Hurry up, find someone to dig up the grave and open the coffin!"
If it's a living person, then it's over, there's no way to escape this disaster.
Several people came to the well-repaired tomb and started digging the grave.
The weather is very good today, but there are gusts of cold wind near the cemetery and no trace of the sun's warmth can be felt.
No one dared to slack off at all. They dug the soil with great effort, just wanting to go back early.
After digging about three meters down, they finally found the pitch-black coffin.
Master Ji had someone jump into the pit and have the coffin lid opened.
When the coffin was opened, the scene inside shocked everyone.
Inside were the eldest son of the Ji family and A-Lian, both wearing wedding attire.
The body of the eldest son of the Ji family had been buried for many days and had begun to decay, but A Lian's was intact.
Her posture was very strange, her eyes were wide open, indicating that she died with her eyes open, and her hands seemed to be trying to push open the coffin lid. Her nails were gone, and the coffin lid was covered with scratches.
Master Ji slumped on the ground.
This shows that she was buried while she was still alive and died with her eyes open.
