Zhang Meng simply ignored the man's fierce look, smiled calmly at him, and said, "Old man, you should know clearly whether I am suspicious or not."
The old and the young just stared at each other without letting each other give way.
Only then did Zhang Meng realize that despite this old man's age, he possessed a ruthlessness that even a young woman like her couldn't match. Just as she was about to lose, the old man quickly spoke up, "You little bastard, you'd better stay out of my business. I know who you are, a witch, right? But even if you are, so what? Do you think I'm afraid of you?"
Zhang Meng was delighted to see that he finally revealed his true face. This guy would be much easier to deal with once his disguise was torn off.
"Uncle, I know you are not afraid of me, and I also know that you are very capable, otherwise you would not be doing the business of ghost trafficking. Am I right?" When Old Man He heard that she actually pointed out what he was doing directly, surprise flashed in his eyes.
Zhang Meng quickly caught the flash of surprise in his eyes, and she became even more certain that her guess was correct. This old man He was really a ghost trafficker.
Zhang Meng had heard about this profession before from Changsheng, who was a soul-catcher. Changsheng had often talked about these people in front of her.
After hearing so much about this kind of person, Zhang Meng naturally had some understanding of him. So on the way back with Zhong the Hunter, she kept thinking about the identity of this old man He. It was not until she returned to the Zhong family that she thought of the ghost traffickers.
"It seems that my guess was right. You are really a ghost dealer, and you are unscrupulous. Other ghost dealers collect the souls of people who died of natural causes, but you actually use tricks to kill people to collect their souls. Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"
Old Man He laughed heartily, his eyes full of madness. "What should I be afraid of? I have no relatives in this world, so why should I be afraid of that? If God wants to punish me, it will be the people in this village. They killed my whole family. Is it wrong for me to come back to avenge them?"
Zhang Meng's eyes narrowed suddenly, then immediately opened wide and looked at him, "Are you from this landlord's family?"
Old Man He's expression changed. "You actually know this? You must have heard it from Zhong Dayong!"
Zhang Meng was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized that this seemed to be the name of Zhong Liehu.
When Old Man He saw that she didn't say anything, he knew he was right, and his expression turned ferocious. "What right do the people in this village have to mention my family? They're not afraid. If it weren't for them, my family wouldn't be dead. I hate the people in this village. I want them to be left alone in their old age, to have their children die before them, and to be like me, haha."
Zhang Meng frowned at his expression. "You're crazy! This is all the fault of the previous generation. Is it worth it for you to blame this generation?"
"It's worth it, of course it's worth it. No matter how many generations pass, the people of this village must pay the price for what they have done."
Seeing his expression becoming increasingly frantic, Zhang Meng immediately changed the subject and asked, "Let me ask you, where did you take the souls of those young people in the village?"
Old Man He smiled mysteriously, "I'm a ghost dealer. I catch ghosts and sell them to ghosts who want to eat them."
"In that case, don't blame me for being disrespectful to the elderly." Zhang Meng said coldly with a sullen face.
Old Man He sneered, "Really? That depends on whether you have the ability. Although I, Old Man He, am quite old, I am not a pushover."
Zhang Meng curled her lips, "Really? Okay then, let's have a competition."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Meng immediately took out three talismans from his backpack and threw them around the room, chanting the spells to activate the talismans loudly, "Heaven will command, and earth will have gods. Hurry and obey the law, command."
After reciting it, the talisman paper flying in the air immediately emitted a golden Bagua circle and pressed down on the dark walls around it.
Recently, because she has been practicing drawing talismans frequently, the talisman paper she draws has become one level higher.
According to Monk Jingchen, the talisman paper she draws now is already considered high-quality talisman paper.
As soon as the three golden talisman papers were pressed against the dark walls around them, four miserable screams were immediately heard from the walls.
After a while, four injured ghosts jumped out from the wall and fell to the ground.
When Old Man He saw the four ghosts lying on the ground, his face changed drastically, and there was immediately a hint of fear in his eyes as he looked at Zhang Meng.
Zhang Meng glanced at him, smiled coldly, and immediately took out a golden sword from his backpack and stabbed it at the four ghosts that had not yet crawled up.
"No!" Old man He shouted in horror.
As soon as he finished shouting, four more voices begging for mercy were heard.
"Don't kill us!" "Great Immortal, please don't kill us. We will never dare to do it again." The four ghost shadows kowtowed to Zhang Meng and begged for mercy.
"I'll spare you, but will you spare those humans you've killed? If I'm not mistaken, the deaths of the young and middle-aged people in this village are all caused by you four ghosts." As soon as she finished speaking, the four already snow-white ghost faces became even paler.
Zhang Meng didn't understand what was going on. "It seems I guessed right. If that's the case, I can't let you off."
Without waiting for the four ghosts to react, Zhang Meng quickly attached a talisman to the Golden Money Sword, recited a spell, and quickly stabbed it into the bodies of the four ghosts.
As soon as he stabbed one, the three ghosts nearby saw what was happening and immediately showed their ferocious looks, and all three flew towards Zhang Meng.
Zhang Meng pulled the Money Sword out from the evil ghost on the ground and looked at the three ghosts flying towards him with a cold smile. "They are just three little evil ghosts. Do you think I can't do anything to you?"
