Finally, the ghost messenger came up with a solution and excitedly went to find Old Lady Tao.
"I've found a way, but we have to try it. If it works, you'll switch bodies with Tao Ying. If it doesn't, your body will be returned to Tao Ying, and your soul will be scattered." The ghost messenger looked at Old Madam Tao, trying hard to suppress the excitement on his face.
"Okay!" Grandma Tao nodded.
So the ghost messenger began to cast a spell, and immediately Old Lady Tao felt a tearing sensation.
When I regained consciousness, I saw my middle-aged self and that little girl.
It's the face you see every day when you look in the mirror.
She felt the care and concern from her second son and daughter.
At that moment, Grandma Tao realized her failure.
Before he could even think for a moment, he was suddenly pushed out by the middle-aged man himself.
Then came the struggle for control over his middle-aged self.
Then I heard a "Amitabha Buddha" and then I saw the ghost messengers.
"What's going on?" Old Mrs. Tao hadn't returned to her body, and she felt as if her soul was getting thinner.
"There's an old monk on the other side who has already entered the ranks of half-immortals. However, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was forbidden to become a spirit, which prevented him from entering the ranks of immortals. If he hadn't been rescued by someone with military merit, he probably would have already ascended to paradise." The ghost messenger was still shaken; this man was far more powerful than himself.
"You're not even as capable as a mortal, yet you have the nerve to say that. Look at you, you hooked the wrong soul, and you couldn't even switch souls. Now you can still get this job by changing bodies. How did you pass the exam to become a ghost messenger? Could I become one too?" Old Mrs. Tao couldn't help but mock.
"I don't feel any tearing sensation anymore. Did you manage to lose me, the middle-aged woman?" Old Mrs. Tao suddenly asked the ghost messenger.
"How could she have been lost? She didn't want to come back, and then the old monk detained her," the ghost messenger said somewhat embarrassedly.
Grandma Tao said, "..."
"What can we do if we're detained?" Grandma Tao couldn't help but ask.
"What can we do? You can't come back. That's a part of your soul. Without that soul, you can't return to your body at all. After all, this is your middle-aged body." The ghost messenger's voice was somewhat soft.
"Then what should I do? Just send me to be reincarnated." Old Mrs. Tao didn't want to look at this ghost messenger at all; he had no skills whatsoever.
"You can't be reincarnated..." The ghost messenger's voice trembled slightly.
"Why? I'm going to report you." Old Mrs. Tao was completely enraged.
But now I'm in a spirit state, so I can't pick up a weapon, and punching isn't very interesting.
“Your soul is incomplete now, so there’s no way to operate it. If that old monk completely obliterates that wisp of soul, you’ll only suffer some injuries, and it will take you a thousand or eight hundred years to recover. But if he holds onto that wisp of soul, there will be no chance of reincarnation.” The ghost messenger was also very troubled.
"He's nothing." Old Mrs. Tao glanced at the ghost messenger with disdain, then turned her head away, not wanting to look at him again, afraid she would want to beat him up.
"I haven't finished yet. You can join our rescue team..."
"Don't give me that nonsense, you're definitely up to no good." Old Mrs. Tao was completely enraged.
"I'm giving you another chance. Join this group, and you'll be able to earn..."
"Can you speak like a human being? If you can't, then shut up!" Old Mrs. Tao interrupted angrily.
"Let me finish what I have to say..." the ghost messenger said, sounding somewhat aggrieved.
"Just say it already, stop dawdling!" Old Mrs. Tao couldn't help but raise her hand to slap the ghost constable, and suddenly realized that she could actually hit him, which made her excited.
So he started beating up the ghost messenger, cursing as he did so.
"You idiot, you heartless bastard! Do you even know that everything I've done is my fault? I'm already old and ready to die, but you just had to bewitch the wrong soul! If you've bewitched the wrong soul, fine, but you could have just sent that girl back. Why did you have to drag me into this? Don't you know I don't want to live anymore?" Old Mrs. Tao was truly heartbroken.
You say that in your middle age, you only have eyes for Wang Baojun, but have you ever thought that in your old age, you will also care about Wang Baojun?
In the end, I made the wrong choice. My child is unfilial, but I still failed to teach him properly.
If things had gone well, such a big thing wouldn't have happened.
"You didn't die of old age; you died a violent death," the ghost guard couldn't help but correct.
"You think you're so clever? You think you can understand everything? I'm already seventy years old!" Old Mrs. Tao became even angrier.
"this…"
"You still want me to work for you? Do you think I'm easy to bully?" Old Mrs. Tao continued her tirade.
The ghost messenger finally gave up resisting. "You work for the City God, not me. I'm lucky if I don't get beaten to death by the City God for what you did." The ghost messenger was really good at talking.
I've been dead for decades, I've forgotten my parents' names, and I finally got a government job, and now I'm going to be laid off? Who can I complain to?
As for the wrong soul-stealing act, there's really no way to undo it.
As soon as the ghost messenger spoke, Old Lady Tao stopped, listened intently to what he said, and then stared straight at him.
"Sister, don't look at me like that, you look like a ghost." The ghost guard nervously wrapped his clothes tighter.
The main reason is that this person has exuded the aura of a bandit.
"Aren't you a ghost? Who isn't a ghost!" The ghost messenger completely broke Old Madam Tao's righteous spirit.
"Who are you talking to like this with?" Old Mrs. Tao glared at the ghost messenger with a stern face, her expression full of displeasure.
"I was wrong (。﹏。*)" The ghost messenger was completely speechless.
"Then hurry up and lead the way!" Old Mrs. Tao wanted to kick the ghost messenger.
"Weren't you waiting for me?" the ghost messenger asked humbly.
"The past is the past, and the present is the present. We don't count who's a good person or not." Old Mrs. Tao rolled her eyes at the ghost messenger.
Just as he was about to leave, the ghost guards stopped him.
"You promised me, so which way are you going?" the ghost messenger asked, looking at Old Lady Tao.
"You're telling me where to go and you're not even leading the way? Didn't we agree that it would be the City God? Are you trying to take my place?" Old Mrs. Tao said, raising her hand to slap him.
"Can you please stop hitting me? I almost lost my soul because of you," the ghost said pitifully.
"Come on, I don't have time to hit you. I'm afraid I'll hurt my hand." Grandma Tao actually brought the child down right on time.
"You've hit me enough already! How many times have you hit me today?" The ghost messenger looked at Old Lady Tao with tears in his eyes.
"How can you be so weak? You're so useless, you can't even hit me." Grandma Tao's face was immediately full of disgust.
"It's all because of you that I've suffered so much loss," the ghost messenger said.
"Did I beg you? Or did I give you money? Isn't all of this because you found us?" Old Mrs. Tao rolled her eyes and said.
