In the original owner's memory, when this king was still a prince, he became the destined person of the Ghost Pavilion when he was seriously injured and on the verge of death.
At that time, the original owner, relying on his most accurate sixth sense, felt that this person was very dangerous, so he deliberately transformed into an old man to help him.
The original owner also calculated that this person had the destiny of a supreme being and would one day rule the world.
The original owner always knew that sometimes, there are some people you can mess with, and some people you can't mess with.
Unfortunately, when he became an old man, the original owner's personality was too unruly and not at all like an old man.
The king had long suspected this as well, and had even secretly sent people to investigate whether the person in the Ghost Pavilion was male or female, an old man or a young man.
However, there was no consensus on the answers; some said it was a man, others a woman, some said it was an older person, and others said it was a younger person.
Furthermore, the Ghost Pavilion is elusive, and no one can truly describe the true appearance of its leader.
The only thing we know is that there is only one master in the Ghost Pavilion, and no one else.
At that time, because it was a matter of fate, the original owner didn't think much about it and directly saved the king. He also helped recruit soldiers and horses and treated scholars with respect.
Finally, as the king's power grew stronger day by day, the original owner left behind a few brocade pouches and left.
Fortunately, the original owner left a little earlier, otherwise she might have been imprisoned.
At that time, the king secretly sought out several sorcerers, hoping to devise a method to bind the original owner of the body.
When the original owner heard the news, she broke out in a cold sweat. She was just a hair's breadth away from being able to continue living a carefree life.
After Ah Li left with Lin Mojie, she wanted to find a place to hide.
However, Lin Mojie slowly said, "Could you take me home?"
Lin Mojie's home, formerly the Lin Prince's Mansion.
He was the only prince of a different surname in the capital, and he also had a royal residence specially bestowed upon him by the king.
However, the former prosperity has been replaced by the current desolation.
Lin Mojie stumbled into the backyard of the Prince's mansion. He rushed into the master bedroom and knelt down.
The master bedroom still bears traces of blood, weathered by time, though their former vibrant red has faded, leaving them dull and worn. They resemble somber paintings, telling tales of the tragedy and helplessness of that era.
That night, every act of resistance was accompanied by dripping blood, as if telling a story of indomitable spirit.
On the wall of the master bedroom hangs a tattered portrait, from which one can vaguely discern a couple holding a child in their arms, with two other children standing beside them.
"Father, Mother, I was wrong."
Lin Mojie called out softly, biting her lower lip and sobbing silently.
The world is unjust!
He always believed that as long as he killed those people and found evidence to prove the Lin family's innocence, he could clear his name.
However, in the end, it turned out to be a power game played by those in power.
Ah Li closed her eyes and looked around. The atmosphere here was somewhat similar to that in the Ghost Pavilion.
At that moment, Ahri realized with a start that Lin Mojie had suddenly stopped breathing.
Ah Li rushed forward to check and found that Lin Mojie had a dagger stuck in his chest; he had committed suicide.
"How stupid."
Ahri waved her hand, and wisps of black mist slowly rose up, gradually gathering from all around, and then entered Lin Mojie's body through the wound on his chest.
A miniature version of the Ghost Pavilion appeared behind Ahri, and Ahri whispered, "The Ghost Pavilion should have a new master."
The miniature of the Ghost Pavilion trembled slightly, and the next moment, the entire Lin Prince's Mansion vanished.
The Lin Prince's Mansion, which should have occupied a vast area, simply disappeared in the capital.
However, none of the people coming and going felt anything strange, as if there had never been a Lin Prince's Mansion here.
Three days later
When Lin Mojie woke up, he saw his father, mother, and two older brothers.
They surrounded Lin Mojie, saying, "Silly brother, you slept really late. You're only waking up now. Have you forgotten that we're still going to Jiangnan?"
"I……"
Lin Mojie touched his chest and pinched his cheek.
It hurts so much!
Is it true?
However, when Lin Mojie, with tears streaming down his face, wanted to embrace these people, they all vanished like smoke and mist.
"Father, Mother, Brother! Don't leave Ah Jie!"
Lin Mojie tried to keep them, but found it was impossible; they vanished from his palm like phantoms.
"Father, Mother, Brother..."
Lin Mojie knelt on the ground, calling out again and again.
Ahri walked up to him at that moment and said, "Do you want to see them again?"
With red eyes, Lin Mojie raised his hand and grabbed Ah Li's hand hanging by his side, saying pitifully, "Please, help me, I really, really miss them."
Ahri said, "I can help you, but if you want to see them again, you'll have to rely on yourself."
"Tell me, what should I do?"
A light appeared in Lin Mojie's eyes.
"To become the master of the Ghost Pavilion."
"To become the master of the Ghost Pavilion?"
"Yes, become the master of the Ghost Pavilion, meet those who are destined to meet you, help them, and you will gain power. Use this power well, and you will be able to see your family. The more people you meet who are destined to meet you, the greater the power you will gain. The greater the power you gain, the more likely you are to be able to resurrect your family."
Is this really true?
“Indeed, the Ghost Pavilion never tells lies.”
"I do!"
Lin Mojie nodded solemnly, his eyes revealing a deep longing. He longed to return to the past, to the warm time when he had family.
