"Uncle Master!"
When Wei Mian returned to Bishui Garden, Zheng Hao and Zheng Heng were both there.
Seeing her push the door open, the two of them greeted her.
"Today doesn't seem to be the day for homework. What's the matter with you two coming here?"
Wei Mian looked around the living room but didn't see Liang Haoran. It seemed that the boy didn't come.
"Master, where have you been? As soon as I heard your school was on winter vacation, I rushed to come and play with you, but you weren't at home and didn't even answer the phone!"
When talking about this, Zheng Hao couldn't help but mutter endlessly, just like a big yellow dog abandoned by its owner.
His good brother's house has a fruit greenhouse, which is specially used to grow off-season fruits, and there is an area where strawberries are planted.
Zheng Hao knew that Wei Mian loved to eat them, so he specially picked a small basket and brought it back, intending to perform well in front of his uncle. He had not done well in his homework a few days ago, so maybe his uncle would not punish him because of the strawberries.
I didn't expect that when I arrived I would find out that Wei Mian was not at home and that he had gone out on the day of the holiday.
The little paper man said that the uncle didn't bring anything with him and should be back in a day or two. The two of them had nothing to do, so they just waited here.
While playing with my phone while waiting, I stuffed the strawberries I brought with me into my mouth, and then I couldn't stop eating.
One on the left and one on the right. Even Zheng Heng, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but eat several. I have to say, the strawberries here are really sweet! And they are big!
So when Wei Mian came back, what he saw was an empty bamboo basket next to the sofa.
Zheng Hao burped and smiled awkwardly, but he had always been thick-skinned, so he immediately took credit for it as if nothing had happened.
"Uncle, my brother's family has a fruit greenhouse. The strawberries there are delicious. My brother and I have tasted them for you today. Let's go pick some strawberries tomorrow!"
Wei Mian glanced at him with a half-smile, his eyes clearly expressing the meaning of "see you continue to make up stories."
"I encountered something today, and I just want to tell you about it!"
As he spoke, Wei Mian told the two Zheng brothers what had happened to Wang Ziwen today.
"No, she's sick, right? She might have some serious illness!"
Before he could finish his words, Zheng Hao got furious. His uncle was the most awesome person in the world, and Wang Ziwen was shameless for not listening to his uncle!
"She's such a person, but she still has to stay there. What's going on? Did her husband and mother-in-law see her committing murder? How much leverage do they have on her? She did something so stupid!"
"Uncle Master, please don't bother with her. If you bother with someone like her, she'll regret it sooner or later!"
Zheng Hao never needs others to praise him when he speaks, he can just chatter endlessly.
Many times when you talk to him, he doesn't get the point at all and only listens to the part he wants to hear.
Fortunately, he was the only one in the Zheng family who was so out of touch. Zheng Heng next to him obviously knew what Wei Mian was going to say.
"Uncle Master, why did the man behind this do this? Is there any benefit for him? What is a vengeful spirit born as? Can it become a human? Is it possible for it to grow up like a normal person?"
Finally, there is someone with an online IQ. Wei Mian looked at him approvingly.
"This is what I want to tell you. I suspect the person behind this is trying to raise a ghost baby!"
"Ghost baby?"
They both said in unison, looking at each other in shock.
It's not that they haven't heard of ghost babies, but these things only appeared in some secret materials, and most of the records were about evil creatures that were rarely seen.
For example, the drought demon, the red-haired zombie, etc. may not be seen once in hundreds or thousands of years.
The reason why Wei Mian didn't think of it at first was that the way the ghost babies she encountered in her previous life were born was different from the current one, but there were also similarities between the two.
That one was raised by a disciple from a famous and upright sect. He usually liked to study some messy magic, and had a strange and cruel personality. Many of his magic techniques were tested on innocent animals, and he had no friendship at all towards his fellow disciples.
Anyone who offends him will be retaliated against double.
The number of disciples in that sect decreased year by year, and it was finally discovered that he was the culprit, so he was expelled from the sect.
But he did not stop his research. Later, he even captured the soul of a pregnant woman who died suddenly and brought it back to refine it. The process should be extremely brutal. Wei Mian only heard some things from his uncle. It seemed that they used the blood and poison of a young girl, and combined it with some magic. It took many years to cultivate one.
Afterwards, the pregnant woman gave birth to a ghost baby in the form of a soul. The baby was born with extremely powerful strength and magic power, and the Taoist priest who fed it could control it.
The ghost baby must be born from blood and can walk at birth. It feeds on living people, just like a reincarnated devil.
After the ghost baby was born, it soon caused strange phenomena in heaven and earth. The nearby heavenly masters all rushed over, ready to destroy the evil creature. Otherwise, once this thing entered the world, it would definitely cause countless people to die in vain.
At the same time, eighteen bolts of lightning fell from the sky, burning it to a crisp, leaving it on the verge of death.
The Taoist priest who arrived took advantage of this opportunity to take action, but it took him a lot of effort to eliminate it.
As for the Taoist priest who cultivated the ghost baby, he was beaten by them and escaped. There was no news about him afterwards.
Wei Mian had never seen a ghost baby, but he heard from his master that the several heavenly masters who rushed there that year were quite powerful, and it took them a lot of effort to destroy the thing after being struck by thunder, so the ghost baby should be very powerful.
But the one she caught from Wang Ziwen, although powerful, was only slightly stronger than a ghost.
So is it that the ghost baby cultivated in this way is not good, or is it because it is not formed yet?
Wei Mian had no idea for a moment, and as for Zheng Heng and Zheng Hao, it was even more nonsense. It was the first time for them to actually hear about the ghost baby. Before, they had only heard about it in the secret documents passed down from their ancestors.
Wei Mian released the vengeful spirit controlled by the red rope for the two of them to see.
As soon as it came out, it forgot the feeling of being beaten by Wei Mian and roared threateningly at several people.
The four holes on the face, which has no facial features and is covered in blood and flesh, would make people feel disgusted even without any expression, let alone the ugly grinning face.
“So ugly!”
Zheng Hao blurted out.
Wei Mian dared to guarantee that she definitely saw the thing pause in its movement, followed by an even louder roar.
Wei Mian frowned, the sound was really harsh, so he took out the talisman and took the evil spirit away again.
"Send a notice within the Dao Sect, letting everyone be on the lookout for pregnant women with unusual signs."
She felt that this was definitely not the first one, but she had never heard of a similar monster appearing anywhere. She didn't know whether it was because it had not been discovered or had never been successfully discovered. However, Wei Mian felt it necessary to spread the news internally and keep an eye on each other.
Then she realized that Taoism has its own website, called the Metaphysics Exchange Network. It is under the name of communication, but in fact it is full of Taoist people. You cannot browse the content of the website without logging in to your account.
There is a forum on the website where you can post anything you want, and you can also ask for help if you have any problems that you cannot solve.
