Chapter 267: Foolish Sacrifice, Bride for the River God
The female ghost grabbed Liu Haiqiao's ankle and pulled him hard.
"Ah!" He screamed in fear and kicked hard. He had never encountered a ghost in his life.
"It's not my fault. It's him. He was the one who insisted on digging up your grave."
He pointed at Manager Huang who was running away, and frightened him so much that his face turned pale instantly.
"No, it's not." Manager Huang explained with a pale face and shook his head vigorously.
"Yes, the developer asked me to dig it up. You can't blame me."
He was so frightened that he wet his pants and fainted on the spot.
The female ghost opened her mouth ferociously, and her mouth full of fangs was about to bite Liu Haiqiao's neck.
"Ah!" Lu Haiqiao's body twitched, blood spurted from his mouth, and he fell to the ground.
"Shut up!" Meng Fuling frowned and wanted to step forward to stop him but was a step too late.
Lu Haiqiao's face was covered with black marks, and the blood turned black all over his body.
His body was horribly black and blue, and he soon fell to the ground and died.
The sudden attack frightened the fans in the live broadcast room.
[Fuck, I was so scared! How come this person turned into a pitch-black corpse after he died?]
[Could she be poisoned? What is the origin of this female ghost?]
[This unscrupulous developer insisted on digging up people's graves, and now he's killed so many people.]
[Sister Sadako, don't let these evil capitalists go. They've left you with nowhere to go, so you should stop them from building your building.]
[Don't say that. Lu Haiqiao is just greedy for money, not guilty of capital punishment. It's just that he refuses to listen to advice.]
I told you not to dig graves, but this damn guy just wouldn't listen to Meng Fuling.
"What a powerful corpse poison!" Meng Fuling wanted to save him but there was no way. This corpse poison was not only poisonous to humans.
Even Meng Po would feel uncomfortable if she met one, but she didn't expect that this female ghost was so resentful.
"Woo woo woo!" The female ghost looked at the dead people around her and laughed grimly: "Go to hell!"
A corpse-guarding ghost would usually guard his own corpse tightly, but she wanted to get out of the cage more.
I watched her pounce towards Wen Xiaoli who was saving people, and her sharp claws stabbed into her face.
"Ah!" Seeing this, Officer Yao immediately pulled out a gun from his waist.
With a 'bang' sound, the bullet went straight through the ghost girl's body.
She has no body, only her soul penetrates.
The female ghost looked down at her body with holes in it and roared in anger, "Go to hell!"
Meng Fuling clasped her hands together and quickly formed a seal: "Nine Heavens Mysterious Thunder, all evil spirits and demons await destruction."
The ground cracked, and a hole appeared in the hellfire with a sound.
"Crash!" Five iron chains rushed out and tightly bound her limbs and neck.
Two two-headed wolves jumped out and bit the ghost girl's legs, their sharp teeth tearing her flesh and blood.
A painful roar was heard, and the female ghost was unable to move and could only be nailed to the spot.
"You, why? Do you want me to die too?" She stared at Meng Fuling with her scarlet eyes.
The female ghost struggled frantically and refused to stop even though her skin was torn.
What kind of pain has he experienced to resist madness so much?
Meng Fuling's fingers fell on her forehead and then entered her memory.
The scorching air hits you in the face, and the heat wave makes you feel like you are suffocating.
This was during the Republic of China more than a hundred years ago. A sudden drought left the people with no harvest.
The cracked ground was full of gullies, and all the crop seedlings had died of drought on the ground.
At this time, a person floated over from the river in a nearby village, and the woman who was carrying water by the river screamed instantly.
"Look, there's someone in the creek!"
A lot of water in the riverbed evaporated, and when people heard this, they all rushed into the river embankment.
A woman in a red wedding dress floated over from the river in the distance.
Several people dragged the woman up, and the pale-faced girl was coughing up water vigorously.
"Magpie?" When someone recognized her, instead of showing the joy of saving someone, his face turned grim.
"She was sent back. The bride was sent back by the river god!"
"The river god is angry. He's not satisfied with the bride we sent. What should we do?"
"It's over, it's over. The river god is angry, and there's no chance of rain."
The villagers angrily accused him, "Xi Que, it's all your fault! You're going to kill our entire village!"
Magpie is a villager in the village and is also the bride sent to marry the river god.
Because of years of drought, people are suffering and even the water in the rivers is almost dry.
The ignorant villagers prayed to gods and Buddhas all day long, and finally came up with a solution.
That means sending a bride to the river god, and then he will be happy and it will rain.
Any family in the village who was willing to let their daughter die would send her away early.
In the end, the villagers could only target Xi Que, an orphan girl who had been wandering around since she was a child.
She had a miserable life and was adopted by a childless couple in the village. Unfortunately, the old couple died early and she was left alone.
Now Xi Que is seventeen years old, and the villagers decided to tie her up overnight after discussing it.
Without any explanation, he threw her into the river as a sacrifice, but who knew that she would come back on her own the next morning.
"It's over, it's all over now!" The village chief also ran over to check the situation.
Seeing the magpie coming back, he pointed at her angrily and said, "You evildoer! Kill her immediately and make amends to the Dragon King."
"What?" The magpie looked at everyone in astonishment and was eventually dragged away by the villagers.
They dug a pit in the village and buried her alive. She wailed in pain before her death, but everyone looked at her indifferently.
Those kind-hearted villagers in the past now blamed all the sins on her.
The moment she was buried in the earth, she was filled with complete despair and pain.
What kills people is not only God, but also the evil in people's hearts.
After his death, the magpie turned into a fierce ghost and killed countless people in the village overnight.
The village chief finally got scared, so he invited a Maoshan Taoist priest to get rid of her.
The Taoist priest's magic power was limited and he could not defeat the magpie, so he finally had people block her grave with stones.
From then on, the magpie's soul was trapped in the cemetery, guarding its own corpse every day for a hundred years.
For hundreds of years, anyone who wanted to dig up this stone tomb would eventually lose all his relatives and die a violent death.
Until the fearless engineering team and Lu Haiqiao dug up this violent grave again.
Fans in the live broadcast room were stunned by these memories.
[Sacrificially marrying the river god? How could these villagers be so ignorant?]
[At that time, there were also water conservancy projects. Wasn't ignorance normal?]
[Even so, you can't take human life lightly. Doing this to an orphan girl is simply a beast.]
[It's not enough to die once, but they have to be buried alive. These people really deserve to die.]
[Greed is insatiable, like a snake swallowing an elephant, and ultimately it costs them their lives. The master advised them, but they didn't listen.]
"Magpie, it has been a hundred years now. Although you have committed a serious sin, you can leave here."
Meng Fuling made a hand gesture and whispered, "Three thousand worries are reduced to dust, six thousand sins cleanse this body, come to the underworld, all will be forgotten in the next life!"
"You don't have to stay in that dark soil anymore." The black evil aura on Magpie's body gradually disappeared, revealing her original appearance.
If it weren't for those selfish and foolish people, she would have lived a good life.
Finally, she transformed into a wisp of green smoke and disappeared from everyone's sight.
As for the people who were poisoned on the ground, Meng Fuling took out talismans.
After burning it, put it in water and let them drink it, and the corpse poison in their bodies will soon dissipate.
