Yun Wuyao was so anxious that he immediately rushed over to block the ghost bride's attack for Xiao Shuangbao.
Xiao Shuangbao was not in a hurry. He grabbed a teacup on the table and smashed it hard at the ghost bride. It hit the ghost bride's head, causing her movements to slow down for a moment.
Seeing this, Xiao Shuangbao grabbed the red silk from Yun Wuyao's hand, wrapped it around the ghost bride, and pulled it hard!
With a "bang" sound!
The ghost bride fell to the ground awkwardly. Before she could get up, Little Frost Treasure shouted "Hey" and jumped over to ride on her. Then he swung his little iron fist and hit her on the forehead with a "bang"!
“Crack, crack…”
The ghost bride's skull was visibly cracked.
It seemed to twitch for a moment, and then began to struggle frantically.
However, just after he moved twice, Xiao Shuangbao grabbed one of his feet and threw his entire skeleton into the air, and then slammed it heavily to the ground!
"Crack..."
The ghost bride felt as if her entire frame was falling apart.
It finally realized that this little baby was not easy to bully...
No, I'm not someone to be trifled with!
"Stop hitting me, stop hitting me! I give up!" The ghost bride quickly hugged her head and begged for mercy screaming.
"If you don't want to be beaten, then tell me where the dreamer of this dream is!" Little Shuangbao threatened fiercely, "If you don't tell the truth, I will tear your entire skeleton apart and put it on a dog's body!"
"No, no, no! I'll tell you the truth!" Although the ghost bride was only a skeleton, she didn't want to be a dog, so she quickly said ingratiatingly, "The dreamer is a thousand-year-old locust tree spirit! It used me as bait to lure a grown man into marrying me, first devouring his soul, then his flesh and blood to become its own nutrients! Only a wisp of the locust tree spirit's soul remains in this dream, and its true body is not here, but in a house in the city! I can help you! But I have a request..."
"Okay, you still dare to negotiate conditions?" Upon hearing this, Little Shuangbao immediately swung his little iron fist again.
"No, I dare not! I said the wrong thing! It's not a request, it's a plea! Please help me!" The ghost bride quickly changed her words.
"That's more like it. What do you want me to help you with?" Little Shuangbao put down his little iron fist and asked in a domineering tone.
"My urn was buried by the locust tree spirit in its roots and is under its control. I beg you, little princess, to get rid of the locust tree spirit and then dig out my urn. I am sincere and kind-hearted and don't want to help the locust tree spirit continue to harm people." The ghost bride said earnestly.
"I can help you." Little Shuangbao agreed without hesitation. It was a good thing that the ghost didn't want to continue harming people. "Let me ask you, the locust tree spirit used an old woman to create this dream. Do you know where the old woman's soul is now?"
"I know, I know! I'll take you there right now!" the ghost bride said hurriedly.
Little Frost Treasure picked it up from the ground and tied the other hand of the red satin around it.
The ghost bride already knew how powerful it was and didn't dare to have any evil thoughts anymore. She took her and Yun Wuyao all the way to the room where the soul of Jiang Yao's mother was.
As soon as Xiao Shuangbao entered, he saw Brother Jiang Yao's mother sleeping on the bed.
"The locust tree spirit is very clever. Every time it constructs a dream, it will find a dying person and use the power of this person's soul to support the dream. In this way, when the dream ends, it can not only devour the soul of the person it is using without any effort, but also will not arouse suspicion at all. Because when the dying person dies after the dream, others will only think that it is a natural death from old age or a sudden acute illness." The ghost bride explained.
"I see."
Little Shuangbao thought thoughtfully, "No wonder I've never heard of such a strange thing happening in the city before."
If Brother Jiang Yao had not drawn the lot this time and asked her to tell his fortune, his mother would have died after a few days of coma like everyone else, and the neighbors would have just thought it was because of her old age and would not have thought much about it.
"Although you said you don't want to hurt people again, you have hurt people before. I can't let you go, but I won't take your life. When this is over, I will send you to the underworld, and the underworld will decide how to deal with you. I'm not discussing this with you, I'm just telling you." Xiao Shuangbao looked at the ghost bride and said again.
"Yes, yes, I know. I will just be punished in the eighteen levels of hell. As long as I can get through it, I will be able to reincarnate as a human being one day. This is better than continuing to kill people and still having a bad ending in the future." The ghost bride nodded without hesitation to show her obedience.
"What should we do next?" Yun Wuyao looked at the unconscious old woman and asked.
"You have to wake her up first. Once she wakes up, the power of the dream will weaken. The soul of the locust tree spirit will feel something is wrong and will show up to check. Then you just need to kill this soul and you can get out!" said the ghost bride.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Shuangbao stepped forward and gently pushed the old woman a few times.
However, the old woman was sleeping soundly.
She suddenly had an idea and whispered in the old woman's ear: "Grandma, Grandma, wake up quickly. Your son Jiang Yao is very worried about you. He has been cheated and his fiancée has cheated on him. If you don't wake up, he will be cheated out of everything!"
Yun Wuyao's eyes twitched when he heard this, thinking back to when Ruo'er had pointed at Jiang Yao's forehead and said he had a little green on his head the moment she saw him...
Could it be that she was right?
The next moment, the old woman suddenly woke up and opened her eyes.
"What happened? Yaoer was deceived?" She rubbed her painful forehead and sat up, but her eyes were blank.
