The infant spirit fell to the ground, baring its sharp teeth, which were still covered with bits of human flesh and blood.
"Be careful." Mo Yan stood protectively in front of Li Muge, his palm forming a Buddhist seal to block the infant spirits' repeated attacks and bites.
"So many children have died. This village is beyond saving. If it falls into my hands, I will make these ignorant villagers wish they were dead."
Li Muge was indignant. Everyone says that ghosts and monsters are hateful, but who knows that what is more terrifying than ghosts and monsters is the human heart?
"What, Mo Yan, are you planning to convert them?" Li Muge noticed Mo Yan's thoughts and sighed, "Don't waste your energy."
"To get rid of them and purify the resentment in these infant spirits, we must first find Wang Geyun. She has become the most threatening ghost in this village."
"How do we find them?" Mo Yan couldn't bring himself to deal with them one by one, even though they had killed people, they were still young.
He would not kill these poor infant spirits unless absolutely necessary.
These baby girls are not welcomed by their parents at birth, and even after they die, they are still burdened by their parents and left in this village, suffering resentment day after day and year after year.
In the end, he turned into a vengeful ghost without reason.
Unable to be reincarnated and corrupted into a vengeful ghost, Mo Yan thought that Wang Geyun's fate was probably the last straw that broke the camel's back for this village.
Suddenly, a strong gust of wind blew in.
Li Muge composed herself: "Be careful, Wang Geyun is here."
Wang Geyun's soul floated in mid-air, her eyes vacant and she was not wearing any clothes.
Mo Yan quickly closed his eyes. Having gotten used to being blind inside Li Muge's body, he had mastered some movement techniques for when he couldn't see.
"Li Muge, she's not wearing any clothes, what should we do?"
"What else can we do but burn it for her?" Li Muge said in a deep voice.
"What? How do I burn it?" Mo Yan thought back for a moment. Even if he wanted to burn clothes, they would have to be burned by the deceased's family so that they could receive them!
Li Muge directly took off her outer garment, revealing her smooth, fair back.
A burst of flame ignited the clothes, which were then tossed into the air.
Suddenly, clothes were draped over Wang Geyun's naked body, her eyes welled up with tears, and she briefly regained her senses.
When she died, the village chief's family locked her in a pigsty and broke one of her legs.
Even when those beasts discovered she was dead, they simply tossed her into the back of the mountain like a dead dog.
The corpse was gnawed by wild animals.
There wasn't even a complete corpse.
Wang Geyun felt a deep resentment.
Everyone in this village is dressed in human skin, yet they act worse than animals.
"Hey, you rule-abiding idiot, she's dressed now, she can open her eyes." Li Muge tapped Mo Yan's shoulder.
When Mo Yan opened his eyes, he saw the alluring lines of Li Muge's back, and his ears turned completely red. Anyone who didn't know the situation would probably think he was drunk.
Li Muge is a carefree person, but now she is focused on how to deal with Wang Geyun, this vengeful ghost.
Although Wang Geyun was just a vengeful ghost and no match for them, if a major conflict were to break out, it would be extremely difficult for them to leave the village.
How could she possibly have the mind to pay attention to the sensitive thoughts of the boy behind her?
"Wang Geyun, you want revenge. As a woman, I can understand your feelings. But have you ever thought about what would happen if you stayed here and killed these beasts one by one?"
"Where are your relatives? They may also be searching for you desperately, enduring the torment of longing and worry."
"Family." A slight ripple appeared on Wang Geyun's blank expression, and tears hung precariously on her eyelashes.
She gently gripped the clothes Li Muge had burned for her to use as a cover: "My mother, like you, has poor eyesight, and my younger brother is weak."
"The day I was abducted, I was hoping to find some work to help support my family, but it turned out like this. I hate it so much!"
"I hate it so much!"
Li Muge's lips moved, but she still managed to say what she wanted to say, which was also the condition she wanted to reach with Wang Geyun.
"Wang Geyun, if we can bring your family here, in exchange for your permission to leave, would you agree?"
“How do I know if you’re lying to me?” Wang Geyun shed tears of blood. “Besides, I look so wretched now, I’d rather they think I’m dead than let them see me.”
"No, they must have been looking for you all along. How can you bear to let your loved ones live in guilt and pain forever?"
“I brought them here so you could see them one last time. As for the people in this village, they deserved what they got, and we won’t interfere.”
Li Muge patiently persuaded him, knowing that Wang Geyun would definitely agree.
From Master Chen's words, Li Muge could almost conclude that the reason why Wang Geyun was so determined to escape was largely because there were people she cared about outside the mountains.
Li Muge hated those kidnappers and buyers to the core, because of them, Wang Geyun's life was destined to be a tragedy.
“Mother, brother, I miss you so much!” Wang Geyun’s eyes were sore. “My mother has a hard life. She gave birth to a sickly brother, which made my heartless father unhappy.”
“My father didn’t want to be a burden on his sick son, so he simply kicked me, my mother, my baby brother and me out of the house.”
“My mother raised my brother and me all by herself. It was so hard, and just when things were finally going to get better, why, why, why is God so unfair to us?”
"I just want to be with my mother and brother, to live a simple life, and to work hard to earn money so they can have a good life. Why did this happen? Why did this happen?"
Wang Geyun was lost in painful memories, and Li Muge quickly tried to comfort her.
"I know you must really want to see your mother and brother, and I'm sure your mother and brother really want to see you too."
Wang Geyun was tempted. The reason she didn't want to die after being subjected to countless inhuman tortures and was determined to escape was because she wanted to find her mother and her younger brother.
She thought.
I dream of going back to my loved ones.
"But how do I know that you'll keep your word after you leave?" Wang Geyun's dull eyes darted around strangely.
"It's simple, we'll just leave one person as a hostage for you."
Mo Yan lowered his eyes, thinking that Li Muge's plan was probably to keep him as a hostage.
Then he went to find Wang Geyun's relatives himself.
Mo Yan did not object; he was willing to trust Li Muge.
Li Muge gave a faint smile: "Miss Wang, how about I stay as a hostage and then have my friend go find your family?"
"What? Are you crazy? Sect Master, I don't agree." Mo Yan refused decisively, gripping Li Muge's arm tightly: "Of course, I'll stay as a hostage. You go and find Miss Wang's brother and mother."
