◎Full of ghostly energy◎
Chapter 8
"How can the ghost energy that only ghost cultivators in the ghost realm possess appears in this world?"
When Ying Huai first arrived in this world, he observed this world carefully because of the Tianyun Fruit. He wanted to connect with the Heavenly Dao of this world, so he placed the Tianyun Fruit, which had already produced seeds but was wilted, next to the Heavenly Dao, so that it could obtain some of the Heavenly Luck to germinate, and then actively practice.
But after decades of observation, Ying Huai came to the conclusion that this world is already in the Dharma Ending Age, and the Heavenly Dao has fallen into slumber due to these reasons. The Heavenly Dao has not been able to get any good things, and the Underworld is also not having an easy time.
The underworld today is like a machine produced by this world, running according to rules established tens of millions of years ago, leaving no room for ghosts to turn around.
Once it reaches the underworld, it will automatically detect everything about its life, and then a mechanical judgment will be made to determine where the soul should be reincarnated next time as quickly as possible, completing the reincarnation.
The speed of mechanization has not been fully realized in this modern world. After all, those machines always need maintenance and repair, but the underworld has become an empty shell and is not used. People work day and night, and there is no sign of damage so far.
But even with this established reincarnation process, a ghost could still escape and not be reincarnated, lingering in the human world, and even allowing Ying Huai to sense ghost energy! ?
"My goodness, it seems like the world is about to go to pieces."
Ying Huai recalled the coincidences he had discovered in the past few days. If he was very curious and confused before, now that he encountered such an obvious situation, he could no longer pretend that he had not discovered anything.
"Perhaps this will be an opportunity..."
Ying Huai said this, carefully feeling the spiritual energy in the air.
"Well, even if there were changes, they certainly wouldn't happen this quickly. Besides, it's still unclear how those changes came about."
The spiritual energy in the air was just as thin as he had felt in the previous decades.
In fact, due to the over-exploitation of the human race in recent decades and air pollution, the spiritual energy in the air is even thinner than when Ying Huai first came to this world.
If Ying Huai relied on the spiritual energy in the air to survive, he would have been lost somewhere long ago.
It is not clear what the final outcome of these inexplicable changes will be, but it is conceivable that they will definitely be beneficial to Huai.
After all, even animals are changing now, and Ying Huai can sense the ghostly aura. It’s only a matter of time before plants start changing.
After thinking this through, Ying Huai withdrew his thoughts and looked again at the place where the ghost energy appeared. After confirming that the ghost energy he had felt before had dissipated, he withdrew his gaze and no longer paid attention to it.
Since it appears now, we will definitely be able to see it in the future. Ying Huai is not in a hurry, as long as the people in Daxi Village are not hurt.
Thinking of this, Ying Huai took advantage of the moonlight and immersed himself in cultivation again.
On the other side, Tang Rufeng slowly came back to his senses shortly after he was sent home by his grandparents along with the puppy that had been following them.
The shadow he saw by the river before made him excited. He hoped so much that it was real, but looking at his current physical condition, even he himself believed that perhaps it was because of his mental and psychological problems that he saw people who had passed away in the past in a trance.
Thinking of Chu, his sanity returned. Although he would no longer seek death like before, the spirit that he had cultivated with great difficulty over this period of time began to wither again.
"What should I do?"
Tang Rufeng's condition was discovered the fastest by the old couple who stayed with him every day. Seeing their grandson's depressed look, they were both a little anxious, fearing that the condition that had been finally alleviated would worsen again.
"Let him get some sleep first. If that doesn't work, we'll take him to visit his godmother and pay him more respects."
Grandpa Tang said this, sighed, and turned to get some calming incense for his grandson.
This incense stick was bought after Tang Rufeng had health problems and had not been able to rest properly. The old couple felt that it would be bad if he did not get enough rest, so they went a long way to find an educated youth who had come here to work in the countryside when he was young to buy it for him.
Not long after the founding of the Flower Country, there was a long period of social turmoil. It was also during that period that many capable people fled the city to avoid persecution and went to the countryside.
The person he went to ask for help was an educated youth who had been sent to the countryside at that time. Their ancestors used to be in the royal spice business. Who would have thought that they would later be labeled as feudal remnants, and even their family had to disperse and hide after their wealth was dispersed.
At the beginning, because of Ying Huai's existence, Daxi Village did not want the people above to arrange anyone to come to their village. But after all, it was an arrangement by the higher-ups, and they could not resist. They could only find a remote place outside the village, farther away from Ying Huai, to set up a youth educated center.
The subsequent disturbance by some of the educated youth proved that their vigilance was correct. If this educated youth had not cured the migraines of several elderly people in the village with his superb skills, he would not have been so easily accepted by the villagers.
At the beginning, the man didn't know what kind of person Ying Huai was, but after knowing Ying Huai, he kept his mouth shut and didn't reveal anything. Only then did he successfully integrate into the village and be regarded as one of their own. Otherwise, although the villagers would not harm him, they would still find a way to get him to another village to be an educated youth.
Although the village is relatively xenophobic, as long as you are accepted by the villagers, no matter how easy the work is, if you encounter something you cannot do yourself, the villagers will lend a hand when they see it.
People have always remembered these friendships. This is also the reason why people still help them when Grandpa Tang comes to ask for the prescription even after they have left Daxi Village for so long and have now reached a height that the villagers cannot see.
Be convenient to others and be convenient to yourself.
"Fengfeng, you should get some sleep first. We will feel much better after a good sleep."
As Grandma Tang spoke, she took the incense stick from her husband's hand and gently placed it in the incense burner beside her to light it. Looking at Tang Rufeng, whose face was a little blurry behind the rising incense cloud, there was a soft light in her eyes and her eyebrows were full of kindness.
"Okay, grandpa and grandma, you should go to bed early too."
Seeing the worry hinted at in the two old men's brows, Tang Rufeng had no way to refute them. He could only lie down, close his eyes, and force his mind to empty.
Attracted by the fragrance, Tang Rufeng's breathing gradually became steady, and the frown on his brows relaxed a little.
However, this sense of relaxation was only temporary. Although the scent of the incense stick was customized according to Tang Rufeng's body, the fragrance did not last long.
Within three hours after the incense sticks burn out, the smell will gradually dissipate. If Tang Rufeng wakes up again at that time, it will be difficult for him to fall asleep again.
Fortunately, there is a small nest next to his bed where Luo Luo sleeps. As long as there is any movement on the bed, Luo Luo will definitely notice it first.
As expected, in the second half of the night, as usual, Tang Rufeng was awakened again. There was a buzzing sound in his ears and his vision was blurred. He seemed to see again his comrades trying hard to run out of the center of the explosion. Unfortunately, they were once again engulfed by flames in front of him and finally turned into ashes.
After the fire, everything was gone, not even the remaining thoughts they had could be found.
“Wuwuwu…”
Luo Luo, who was standing next to him, stood up from the nest very skillfully, jumped with his front paws and placed them on the edge of the bed, then put his head into Tang Rufeng's arms and began to rub against him, trying to divert Tang Rufeng's attention.
"I'm fine..."
Tang Rufeng said this, reaching out to rub the dog's head. He was already used to it.
But isn't his habit also a kind of numbness?
"Come on, let's go for a walk."
As Tang Rufeng spoke, he took out a small flashlight from the bedside table and walked in front to lead the way.
Although the noise from Tang Rufeng's side was very quiet, it was still heard by the old couple of the Tang family.
"What's going on? How could our grandson, who is so good, live his life like this..."
Grandma Tang covered her eyes sadly and sobbed quietly, not daring to make a sound so that her grandchildren outside could hear her.
"Hey... stop talking. Let's get up and get some food. Luo Luo was very aggressive last night. Let's get some good meat so he doesn't starve."
Grandpa Tang sighed softly, comforted his old wife, took out tobacco leaves from his small cloth bag and started to roll them. He lit them up rather boredly, and began to sit on the doorstep and smoke. However, his eyes fell on the bamboo basket that his grandson had asked him to weave, and he did not move for a long time.
"Well, I know, I won't lose anything."
As Grandma Tang said this, she stood up and walked to the kitchen to take out the frozen meat from the refrigerator to thaw it.
Their village is still some distance away from the town. Although a special rural line has been opened, it is still very troublesome for the elderly to go to the market. Therefore, every time Tang Rufeng's parents go home to see them, they will prepare meat and other things in advance.
These are what they eat on weekdays. When there are more important occasions, they will go directly to the chicken coop to take out the chickens and eat them immediately.
As soon as Ying Huai immersed himself in his cultivation, he felt the remnants of the ghostly energy coming towards him.
When I opened my eyes, I saw Tang Rufeng walking towards me with a flashlight.
To be honest, if there is still someone in the village who can't sleep like Tang Rufeng and is wandering around, I guess the two of them will scare each other to death when they meet.
Especially now, there was some ghostly aura on Tang Rufeng's body, which made his originally gentle face look inexplicably eerie in the dim light at night.
"What's going on with this kid... He wasn't there yesterday!!!"
Ying Huai was surprised and at a loss.
What kind of changes could allow this world to change little by little without increasing its spiritual energy content?!
If Ying Huai didn't know that no one in Daxi Village could hear him, he would have wanted to ask Tang Rufeng loudly in his ear what he had done!
The ghostly aura last night was obviously caused by something Tang Rufeng did, which allowed Ying Huai to sense it from such a distance.
And now, the ghost energy on Tang Rufeng's body was obviously contaminated by him, not something he carried with him himself, but judging from the amount of ghost energy around him, he was exposed to quite a lot.
If it weren't for Tang Rufeng's own instinct to not resist, the ghost energy and human yang energy are two completely contradictory forces. How could the yang energy allow the ghost energy to stay in his body for so long!
Just as Ying Huai was surprised and used his spiritual sense to look over Tang Rufeng's body, trying to identify the guy who had put the evil spirit on him, the mud lump left behind in the distance rolled twice and melted into the ground right under Ying Huai's eyes.
"Wow, the whole world is evolving, but I'm not included, right?!"
Ying Huai felt a little helpless when he said this.
He really didn't feel anything special.
Of course, it could also be because he was too strong, and this slight change was simply not enough to be seen on him.
Thinking of this, Ying Huai finally relaxed a little and thought of it as comforting himself.
Ying Huai just watched Tang Rufeng sitting under the tree in a daze again, without disturbing him, just quietly accompanying him.
But before dawn, there were a lot of things to do today, just like now, Ali was holding a mouse that looked very energetic and placed it next to Ying Huai.
It licked its lips and looked at Ying Huai with anticipation, as if it was ready to let Ying Huai see something new and then eat him in one bite.
After making sure through eye contact, it was clear that Ahri was here to show off.
