Little Yu, wanting to scare Bai Yu, said with a smile, "Brother Bai Yu, feel it, it really is human skin~"
"Don't scare me!" Bai Yu was terrified.
Si Jing frowned and said, "Human skin scrolls are very rare. People in the past rarely did this."
Yes, that's right.
Seeing this, Si Jing continued, "This matter is quite serious. I have to tell my master that after being left for so long, he must have become an old monster."
"Why should I tell her?" Little Yuzu tilted her head: "She's been gone so long, she's practically an antique now."
Si Jing continued, "Isn't it said that the older the ghost, the stronger it is? We probably can't handle it."
"It's okay." Little Yuzu was very confident. "I can do it."
Over there, Bai Yu trembled as she looked at the beautiful woman in the painting.
This is a painting made of human skin! I heard the ghost is of a very high level.
Looking at the beautiful woman on the screen, Bai Yu suddenly lost her senses, as if she had been sucked in by something, and became completely absorbed in the scene.
"Jiang Lang, you've arrived."
Suddenly, a seductive female voice echoed in Bai Yu's mind.
He felt dazed, and suddenly a beautiful woman appeared in front of him.
The woman's face flashed by, and he forgot about it immediately. Everything was blurry and unclear, but he felt that the woman was very close to him.
"Jiang Lang, how cruel you are!"
"Jiang Lang, look at me."
Bai Yu felt herself sinking deeper and deeper, completely being manipulated.
"Hey!" Luo Li frowned and patted Bai Yu, bringing him back to his senses.
Luo Li frowned: "What are you doing? Which girl do you like? Look at you, all lovestruck."
"No, I just..."
“Your soul just left your body,” Si Jing said coldly.
Bai Yu scratched his head, looked bewildered, and sat down with his phone, intending to continue playing games with Luo Li.
Just then, he felt like something was watching him.
Bai Yu suddenly looked up and saw the beautiful woman in the painting meet his gaze and smile.
The smile was gentle, but Bai Yu felt a chill run down her spine.
His eyes widened instantly, and he shouted, "Little Yuzu, she just looked at me!"
"Don't be impatient."
Xiao Youzi offered Bai Yu a perfunctory consolation.
Cheng Cheng had already hidden far away, wishing she could stick her whole body to Xiao Ye.
There was no way around it; Xiao Ye was filled with righteous energy, making him impervious to all evil spirits.
"Are you going to come out on your own, or should I knock you out?" Little Yuzu ignored the two startled people and poked the beautiful girl in the picture with her little hand.
The beautiful woman laughed and slightly shifted her body to avoid Xiaoyouzi's poke.
"Ahhh, she smiled! I'm not seeing things, she really smiled!" Bai Yu stopped playing the game, threw her phone aside, and her panic was obvious.
Upon hearing Bai Yu's scream, the beautiful woman's eyes flickered, and her gaze fell on Bai Yu's face.
So Bai Yu hid behind Bai Li and said in a trembling voice, "Brother, brother, look, she's really alive, she's a ghost!"
"Stop fooling around." Bai Li glanced over there; the beautiful ghost hadn't moved, and he couldn't see anything unusual.
Seeing this, Little Pomelo rolled her eyes and stretched out her hand with a grin: "Come out and let everyone see your beauty."
"I'm not watching!" Bai Yu got up and ran upstairs, shouting as she ran: "Prosperity, democracy, civility, harmony..."
Cheng Cheng, who was standing to the side, immediately stood up and grabbed Xiao Ye's hand, leading him upstairs: "Let's go, don't join in the fun here."
"Okay, run slower."
Xiao Ye said something from behind, then strode over to catch up with Cheng Cheng.
Bai Yu ran a few steps up the stairs and started calling out, "Luo Li, brother, aren't you coming up here?"
"Ah, coming." Luo Li herself was a little apprehensive, and said to Xiao Youzi, "Take it easy, Youzi, I'm going up."
Little Yuzu nodded.
Luo Li ran a few steps, but didn't forget to pick up Bai Yu's phone and run up to him.
Bai Li nodded to Xiao Youzi and the others, then turned and left.
Soon, only Si Jing, Bai Ningyi, and Xiao Youzi remained in the hall.
Bai Ningyi shook the scroll again. "Is this alright?"
"Thank you, Master Ba."
After thanking her, Little Pomelo tapped the human skin on the painting: "Come out."
"I can use magic to summon it." Seeing that Xiaoyouzi had called twice but the person inside hadn't come out, Sijing quickly decided to give himself a chance to show off.
Bai Ningyi glared at him irritably: "Our Youbao can do it herself, you don't need to show off."
"Hmm." Si Jing couldn't say anything to Bai Ningyi, so she could only obediently remain silent.
Little Yuzu gave him a reassuring look, then said, "I'll do it, let's get started."
As she spoke, a talisman appeared out of thin air in Xiaoyouzi's hand.
The talisman doesn't need any kind of accelerant; it just burns directly.
Little Yuzu handed the talisman to the scroll and smiled at the beautiful woman in the painting. "Want one?"
"No need." The beautiful woman ran out from inside, a hint of panic on her pretty face.
With a wave of his hand, Xiaoyouzi caused the talisman and smoke to vanish.
She chuckled, "I thought you were going to stay inside a little longer."
"This humble servant greets Miss." The beautiful ghost appeared and greeted Xiaoyouzi with a gentle smile on her face.
Xiao Youzi glanced at her and said, "You don't have any malevolent aura on you; on the contrary, you seem to have a subtle connection with Buddhism?"
“Only killing can be redeemed and sent to the cycle of reincarnation,” Si Jing said earnestly.
Little Yuzu, on the other hand, didn't immediately agree with what he said. Instead, she asked the beautiful ghost, "What's your name? Why did you become like this? How long have you been here?"
"Ah?" The beautiful ghost recalled carefully.
Over there, Bai Ningyi saw that there were no figures on the scroll in her hand, and after a moment of surprise, she put the scroll down.
Little Yuzu was patient. "Take your time thinking about it."
"I remember how I died."
Ten minutes later, the beautiful ghost suddenly remembered and stood up.
"Sit down and let's talk," Little Yuzu waved her hand.
The ghost in front of him, which had already solidified into a physical form, was so clear that even Bai Ningyi could see it clearly.
He was surprised, but more than that, he was curious.
A hint of resentment appeared on the beautiful ghost's gentle face: "Jiang Lang and I were childhood sweethearts, growing up together since we were little. Our families were both quite well-off. Later, when Jiang Lang's family fell on hard times, my family didn't look down on us and let him live with us."
In the third year of Emperor Xuanhuang's reign, there was a severe drought, and it did not rain for a long time.
Our area became extremely dry with no water to drink, all the crops died, so we fled.
Jiang Lang's parents died on the way to escape famine, and he has been living with my family ever since.
My parents supported his continued studies, and Jiang Lang promised me that when he returned successful, he would marry me in grand style.
The beautiful woman still had a smile on her face as she said this.
The next second, the smile vanished: "Jiang Lang lived up to expectations and became the third-ranked scholar, but he had long forgotten our vows, turned around and married the princess, becoming the prince consort!"
"Jiang Lang, Jiang Lang, I have waited for you for so many years, but you are going to let me down!"
Anger surged across the beautiful woman's face, and a faint black aura appeared...
