Chapter 91 Liang Ji
It’s just that my alchemy skills are not good enough, so I can’t make medicine that can change ghosts and gods.
In fact, the incense made by Gong Mengbi can also affect ghosts and gods, and is best used to induce hallucinations.
But Gong Mengbi had never seen Lengxiang Pills before.
But he still had to be solemn and wait: "Although my method of making Lengxiang Pills is simple and difficult to cultivate mana, it is exquisite. I learned it from Tianhu Academy and cannot teach it easily."
"If the City God is willing, I can make an exception and teach Ghost Princess, but she must swear not to pass on the magic to anyone else. Otherwise, even if I have the courage of the sky, I will not dare to let the magic of the Sky Fox Academy leak out."
The more solemnly he spoke, the more convinced the City God was.
The City God nodded repeatedly and said, "This is as it should be. Liang Ji, why don't you come and thank the Palace Fox Society?"
Liang Ji had no choice but to step forward and bow to express her gratitude, but the look she gave Gong Mengbi was filled with resentment.
Gong Mengbi was certain in his heart.
The City God was in a state of confusion, and Gong Mengbi saw that he was distracted and knew that the banquet was over.
He then offered, "Thank you for your hospitality, City God. I have things to attend to, so I can't stay any longer. Ghost Lady, please move on. I'll teach you some magic, and then I'll leave."
The City God hurriedly tried to persuade him to stay: "I'm sorry for not treating you well enough. Please have another drink."
He drank another cup, and the City God invited Gong Mengbi and Gui Ji into the quiet room and taught them the method of making Lengxiang Pills.
When they arrived at the quiet room, Gong Mengbi and Gui Ji sat opposite each other. The candlelight in the room cast their shadows on the doors and windows.
The candlelight shone on the screen, and the landscape painting on the screen seemed to be soaked in the light and seemed to be flowing.
Gong Mengbi seemed to be admiring the landscape painting, then turned his gaze and said, "Miss Liangji, I'm sorry."
Liang Ji sat opposite him, looking at his appearance, and was a little absent-minded and amazed for a moment.
In this world, if a man is born handsome, he will inevitably have a feminine air; if he is born heroic, it is inevitable that people will find it difficult to get close to him.
But Gong Mengbi is different. He is born handsome and has the appearance of a fox, but he does not have any feminine air. Instead, he gives people a feeling of being out of touch with the world and making it difficult for people to get close to him.
Once such a seemingly indifferent person speaks kindly, people will be flattered.
At this moment, Liang Ji was a little flattered to see his gentle words.
She lowered her eyes slightly, nodded gently, and said, "Please teach me the magic, Fox Fairy."
She closed her eyes, and although no resistance could be seen, her upright and tense posture revealed her stubbornness.
Gong Mengbi laughed and said, "I learned the method of making the Lengxiang Pill from the Tianhu Courtyard. Therefore, I ask Miss Liangji to swear an oath not to pass on this method to anyone else, nor to reveal the secret. Otherwise, the spirit of the Goddess of Mount Tai will appear before you and bring you bad consequences."
Liang Ji immediately swore an oath.
Gong Mengbi said: "I am a humble person, so I need to use the Pure Land method to drive away the prying eyes. If there is anything inappropriate, please forgive me."
Liang Ji said, "Lord City God is very magnanimous and will not blame you."
Gong Mengbi chanted the sacred name of the Queen Mother of Mount Tai, inducing her spiritual response and setting up an invisible barrier so that others could not hear the conversation between the two.
When the Pure Land Mantra was finished, Gong Mengbi remained expressionless. He did not immediately teach the "Lingxiang Pill Method," but instead apologized: "Earlier, I heard a sentimental song in Miss Liangji's song, revealing her longing for home and her melancholy. I understand ghosts and know that you feel helpless and wronged, unable to resolve your feelings. Therefore, I used the Lengxiang Pill as an excuse to find an opportunity to speak with you."
Liang Ji forced herself to remain calm and said, "How could the fox fairy speak like that? The City God has been so kind to me and doted on me. How could I be unhappy?"
Gong Mengbi smiled and said, "Miss, don't be afraid. What's in the Pure Land won't be spread outside. I know you're afraid of the eye in the landscape screen, but unless he breaks out and destroys my Pure Land, he won't be able to see what we're talking about."
Liang Ji looked at Gong Mengbi deeply and said, "Do you know that if I just push the door open and shout, you won't be able to walk out of here alive?"
Gong Mengbi said, "Of course I believe it, but I am even more confident. I am confident that I will not misunderstand the girl's feelings, and I am also confident that I can save her from suffering."
Liang Ji's breathing became rapid, and her chest heaved. It was clearly a dead person's heart, but it seemed to be beating again.
Gong Mengbi said: "I only have a sincere heart, otherwise I would not take the risk to try."
Liang Ji calmed down and asked, "What do you want?"
Gong Mengbi asked, "You follow the City God closely, so you must know him very well. I want to learn about him from you, his weaknesses, his plots, or perhaps, evidence of his guilt."
Liang Ji gave a bitter laugh. "You think too highly of me. I'm just a ghost concubine. Although I have some beauty and am favored by him, how can I know his weaknesses or even evidence of his guilt?"
Gong Mengbi said, "That's fine. Miss Liangji, you can tell me whatever you know. I won't embarrass you."
Liang Ji was silent for a moment, then sighed, "Well, listen to me tell a story."
Liang Ji is now the ghost concubine of the City God, the one he loves the most and always keeps her by his side. But before that, she was a daughter of the Liu family and the younger sister of Liu Sheng.
Liu Sheng was the county lieutenant of Wuning County. He was good at riding and shooting, had excellent martial arts skills, and was extremely fond of his sister.
One day, during a temple fair, Liang Ji and Liu Sheng were praying in the City God Temple. Suddenly, they heard someone inside the temple laughing, "Such a beauty exists in the world. If we don't marry her, wouldn't it be a waste of a good marriage?"
Liang Ji was frightened at the time and wanted to explain to Liu Sheng, but she couldn't open her mouth.
From that day on, she could see ghosts and evil spirits. Within half a month, she fell ill and died in bed.
Liu Sheng just thought that she died of a cold and lung heat, but who knew that she was killed by the city god and forced to be his concubine.
She wanted to ask for help, but the little ghost grabbed her throat and silenced her with evil spirit. She couldn't utter a word and died inexplicably.
Liu Sheng thought that he had failed to take good care of his sister and never recovered from his loss. On the other hand, Liang Ji was "pampered".
Although these favors were not what she wanted, she had no right to refuse and could only compromise.
On one hand, she is weak, and on the other hand, the City God threatens her family, so she is locked in this place where yin and yang meet. Even though Liang Ji misses him, she can't express her pain.
Singing such a sad song was not her subconscious desire to ask for help?
After hearing Liang Ji's story, is there anything Gong Mengbi doesn't know about the City God?
He simply revealed everything: "I will now teach you the method of making Lengxiang Pills. Remember the oath we made earlier. What I am going to tell you now is the secret method of making Lengxiang Pills. If he asks you, just tell him this. With the help of the spirit of the Goddess of Mount Tai, he will not be able to detect the oath."
Gong Mengbi said, "You've been in the City God Temple for so long that you're oblivious to the world outside. Now that the black dragon isn't leaving, the energy of heaven and earth is stagnating in the southeast. Sooner or later, it's bound to unleash itself, leading to a flood. Someone knows this, yet they're concealing the truth, watching the catastrophe unfold, causing countless lives to be decimated. I'm willing to intervene, but I need your help."
"I can support your parents and brothers, and I am willing to help you escape from hardship and stay away from the sea of suffering. I wonder if you are willing to help me."
Liang Ji said sternly, "I don't ask for escape. As long as you can save my parents and brother, I am willing to risk my life."
