Chapter 235: Resentment Rising
Gu Zhifei was about to explain when a noise came from the ruins outside. Two middle-aged men came over with hoes in hand. When they saw Gu Zhifei and the others, they stood far away and asked loudly:
"Are you the guests sent by the Seven Stars Sect?"
Gu Zhifei nodded, fearing that the resentment struggle above would hurt them, and cast a barrier: "Did you invite us here?"
When the two middle-aged men saw them, tears welled up in their eyes. They dropped their hoes, trotted over, and bowed down to them:
"Living God! God, please save us!"
Gu Zhifei and others quickly helped them up: "No need to be so polite, tell us what you know, maybe it will be easier for us to act later."
One of the men with mustaches said, "This place has been haunted for a long time, and it has gotten worse these days. We really can't stand it anymore, so we asked the immortals from the Seven Stars Gate for help."
Gu Zhifei: "Have they caused any harm to you?"
The man with two mustaches said, "That's not the case. It's just that we always hear ghosts screaming at night, which makes us restless. The biggest noise is that they turn over the rubble and mud here, making this land barren and unable to build a house."
Perhaps the most important sentence he said was the last one.
It seems that even in ancient times, building a house is the most important thing in life.
Gu Zhifei joked in his heart and felt that he and the man with two mustaches had a common language.
"How long has this land been barren?" Gu Zhifei asked the man with two mustaches.
The man with two mustaches replied, "This garden has been abandoned since my grandmother was alive. I don't know how long it has been abandoned."
The man who came with him said, "I have heard a legend about this place. I wonder if it can help you."
Gu Zhifei: "I'd like to hear the details."
The man said:
“It is said that many years ago, there lived a wealthy family named Wang here. This wealthy family named Wang had only one son, and they treated him like a treasure.
When the only son was eighteen years old and it was time for him to get married, the Wang family carefully selected a satisfactory match.
"And the bride died on her wedding night?" Bai Mengmeng asked.
The man glanced at her and continued, "The daughter-in-law chosen by Wang is hardworking and capable. Everyone who knows her praises her highly. The palace is in perfect order under her management, but for some reason, there are considerable conflicts between Wang and her daughter-in-law.
It is said that a harmonious family brings prosperity. Because Wang and his wife were not on good terms and had quarreled for countless times, Mr. Wang got into trouble outside and the family gradually fell into decline.
Since then, rumors of ghosts have often spread in the palace, and later, it became like this. "
"This doesn't match what we saw before." Zhou Zhao had doubts in his heart and felt that everything he saw was not right. "This legend is probably not accurate, right?"
The man spread his hands: "I don't know about that."
The black air above the head is still evenly matched. When the resentments fight each other, one of them will be injured. I'm afraid they will not stop today unless they come to an end.
"What if one of these black spirits is Wang, and the other is her daughter-in-law?" Gong Mo said, "I think our previous illusion was also affected by their resentment. Only in this way can we explain why everything in the illusion is unreasonable."

Gu Zhifei looked at her with great appreciation, and said with a smile: "I have come up with a complete story, I wonder if you would like to listen to it."
Anyway, the resentment above my head won't be resolved so quickly, so listening to a story won't waste any time. Everyone sat down and waited for her to speak.
