Song Yuan's father was named Song Huaide. He said he had two sons. The eldest son was named Song Wang, and the second son was Song Yuan. Song Wang was five years older than Song Yuan. However, more than a year ago, Song Wang died. Song Yuan was young and ignorant. He always missed his brother and thought that his brother was just out and would be back soon. Song Yuan often sneaked out to look for his brother when he was not paying attention.
One day, Song Huaide suddenly discovered that there was a ghost aura on Song Yuan, and found out that Song Yuan had secretly made a ghost contract when he was not paying attention.
Yi Xichen asked: "How can a child of his age know about ghost contracts?"
Song Huaide said angrily: "It's all his brother's fault! He was young and ignorant, and he thought he could find his brother in this way! He was only eleven years old, so pitiful..."
Lu Ziyao hurriedly comforted him, "My condolences."
Yi Xichen asked again: "Why blame his brother? How did his brother Song Wang die?"
Song Yuan looked up at his father and said, "Ghost Contract."
Song Huaide's expression changed slightly, and he said, "Song Wang also died from the ghost contract. I only have these two sons, one or two, both... Alas!"
When these words were spoken, people had different reactions.
Song Huaide knew that both of his sons had made a pact with a ghost, which was very suspicious, so he explained: "After Song Yuan was born, his mother died. He was young, so I loved him more and always asked Song Wang to give in to him. But Song Wang, that rebellious son, didn't know how to respect the elderly and love the young, and he even competed with his brother in everything! It was also my fault for not being able to educate my son well. He hated me for not paying enough attention to him, and said that he must become stronger to show me. But I really didn't expect that he would go down this path..."
Lu Ziyao hurriedly comforted him, "My fellow Taoist, please accept my condolences."
Yi Xichen asked again: "Then, why did those zombies attack you?"
Song Huaide hesitated for a moment and said, "It must have been done by that rebellious son."
"Oh?" Several people present raised their eyebrows, some were suspicious, and some were surprised.
Even Lu Ziyao couldn't help but ask: "Are you talking about your eldest son Song Wang? How could this be..."
Song Huaide said: "Hasn't he lost part of his soul? Many fierce ghosts only remember the hatred and resentment they had in their lifetime. He resented me for not loving him enough, and resented Song Yuan for taking away his love, so..."
Yi Xichen asked: "Are you sure that these corpses were controlled by Song Wang?"
Song Huaide said: "I don't want to believe that he would become such a thing, but... except for Song Wang, Song Yuan and I, father and son, have never offended anyone. There is really no other possibility!"
He laughed at himself and said, "After I was injured in the fight, my cultivation has stopped here and it is difficult to improve. Even if I want to offend someone, who can I offend?"
Lu Ziyao patted his shoulder again to comfort him. When he was treating Song Huaide, he found that he had old injuries. Flesh injuries caused by evil spirits can be healed with magic, but if the wounds are to the root, magic alone cannot heal, and the cultivation will stagnate. Song Huaide's injury did not seem to be caused by someone, but rather that he went astray in his cultivation and damaged the root.
Yi Xichen was silent. Song Huaide's cultivation was indeed very poor. Even if he wanted to offend someone, he probably couldn't afford to offend anyone. Moreover, the revenge of powerful ghosts was sometimes unreasonable. Not to mention that there was a grudge in life, even if they were harmonious fathers and sons, brothers, or close friends in life, when they died, they lost their non-poisonous souls, and could not remember the good things in their lives, but only remembered those trivial grudges. In the end, after cultivating the way of ghosts, they came back to kill their relatives and friends in life. Such things are not uncommon.
Lu Ziyao said in embarrassment: "If this is true, what should I do? Alas..."
At this moment, the sound that sounded like crying and laughing in the Black Forest became louder, and waves of chaotic footsteps were gathering towards them from all directions.
“Here we go again!”
This place is close to the ghost world, and there are many ferocious corpses. After they got rid of the group in Black Wind City, a new group came. It seems that the mastermind behind the scenes really hates Song Huaide and his son, and he will not stop until he kills them.
Song Huaide begged, "Can you take me to the ghost world? I want to find Song Wang. Even if I owed him in my lifetime, I will just give him my life back. But how could he treat his brother like this? Song Yuan is such a pitiful child."
Lu Ziyao had the same idea and looked at his fellow apprentices for their opinions.
Yi Xichen and the eldest grandson Zijun seemed to be thoughtful and did not express their opinions; Xiao Kui sneered and rolled his eyes to show his disdain; Gongsun Di sighed in frustration: "Senior Brother Lu, oh, Senior Brother Lu, I really don't know what to say to you. They pretend to be pitiful and you accept it all. But what they say may not be true! You are like this in Tianjianmen, and you are still like this after leaving Tianjianmen!" He looked at Song Huaide with an unfriendly look. He was always wary of people he didn't know.
"That's right!" Xiao Kui echoed, "He just said a few words and you did something for him. How could you be so easy to fool? No wonder you were always fooled by Yi Xichen... and Zhang Sun Zijun!"
Yi Xichen, who was inexplicably dragged into the battle, looked at Xiao Kui with amusement. However, he generously chose not to interrupt. The current situation was very chaotic, but chaos has its advantages. They watched from the sidelines and could more carefully observe the reactions of different people and some unknown tricks.
Lu Ziyao obviously didn't understand what Xiao Kui said: "Do things for him?"
Xiao Kui frowned and said sarcastically, "If we really find his eldest son in the ghost world, can you just watch that ghost kill Song? Instead, we have to help him get rid of that fierce ghost! He sounds so pitiful, but he actually wants to use us!"
Song Huaide was a little flustered and didn't dare to answer while holding Song Yuan.
Lu Ziyao was still a little confused: "But, isn't the purpose of our coming here to kill demons and monsters? How can we say it's for him? Do we have to ignore him if he speaks up?"
After hearing this, Xiao Kui and Gongsun Di were both stunned.
Lu Ziyao added: "Besides, if there really is a misunderstanding between them, shouldn't we help them reunite and resolve the misunderstanding?"
Xiao Kui and Gongsun Di were speechless.
Is Lu Ziyao stupid? No, he is at a different level! It's not that he doesn't understand Song Huaide's hidden meaning, but he thinks that's how things should be done. If there are demons and ghosts causing trouble, then get rid of them; if someone needs help, then help them with all your strength, even if the person seeking help is not likable.
As for Gongsun Di, he was a cautious person. If he met a suspicious person without evidence, he would stay away from him to avoid putting himself in danger. His cautious character was evident when he used the Metal Body when fighting with his eldest grandson, Zijun, at a fencing competition.
As for Xiao Kui, he had never thought about killing demons. He came to the ghost world, on the one hand, to find an opportunity to do something outstanding, and on the other hand, he had ulterior motives. He could have dealt with the evil corpse in Black Wind City by himself, but Gongsun Di and Lu Ziyao came to join in the fun, stealing his credit and making him afraid to perform. He was very unhappy.
Xiao Kui muttered, "Hurry up and shave your head and become a Buddhist practitioner! It's really unfair for you to be a sword practitioner!"
Seeing that their argument was over, the eldest grandson, Jun, jumped on the sword and said, "Let's go?"
Lu Ziyao picked up Song Yuan and said, "Let's go to the ghost world."
Since Song Wang has become a ghost cultivator, he is probably in the ghost world. Ghost cultivators will not easily leave the ghost world unless they have a special purpose, because the flow of the aura in the ghost world is more suitable for their cultivation, just like human cultivators will not go to the ghost world or the demon world for no reason, because the aura there is not beneficial to their cultivation.
Lu Ziyao hugged Song Yuan and coaxed her gently, "We are going to find your brother."
Song Yuan was very happy. However, he was always very happy. Even when facing a group of corpses, he was smiling. This child no longer knew what fear was. Therefore, when talking about his brother, he was just as excited and curious as if he had seen a ridiculous corpse.
The group of people flew towards Chimei Town with swords.
The eldest grandson, Zijun, flew to Xiao Kui's side and asked in a low voice, "What do you think of the ghost contract?"
"Ah? You're asking me?" Xiao Kui was a little flattered. Ever since the eldest grandson Jun entered the medicine pavilion, he never took the initiative to talk to Xiao Kui, let alone ask for his opinion. Xiao Kui used to be very unhappy about this, because he always regarded the eldest grandson Jun as an opponent, and he got angry when the eldest grandson Jun didn't take him seriously. Now his thoughts are a little more complicated. In short, he is quite proud that the eldest grandson Jun talked to him. In his opinion, this is the eldest grandson Jun's initiative to reconcile and show goodwill.
Xiao Kui looked at the others and found Yi Xichen walking side by side with Lu Ziyao and talking. Xiao Kui asked, "Why don't you ask Yi Xichen?"
The eldest grandson Zijun said: "Why bother asking him." He and Yi Xichen were in tune with each other and could communicate directly through telepathy, so there was no need to ask specifically.
Xiao Kui raised his eyebrows, his tone rising: "How do I view the ghost contract? What's there to view? The weak can only exchange power in this way. You deserve it!"
"Serves you right?"
"Yes," Xiao Kui deliberately glanced at Yi Xichen again, "Useless people should die early. The ghost contract can help them get rid of it."
The eldest grandson Zijun sneered secretly, said no more to him, and flew ahead.
Soon, they flew to Chimei Town.
There were many ghosts wandering around in Chimei Town, and the whole town was in ruins. Miserable laughter and crying swept over, enveloping the whole town, irritating people's eardrums and making everyone's face look bad.
In the town, several black vortices were flashing. They were the teleportation arrays connecting the ghost world and the human world. Ghosts kept coming out of the teleportation arrays and entering them.
Ghost cultivators have incomplete souls and mental retardation, most of them have low intelligence and are stubborn. Many of the ghost cultivators in Chimei Town were wandering aimlessly near the entrance and exit of the ghost world, and accidentally entered the teleportation array and were sent to Chimei Town. Although Chimei Town is also full of ghosts, it is after all part of the cultivation continent. The ghost cultivators are not as comfortable here as in the ghost world, so they go back when they encounter the teleportation array.
The positions of the teleportation arrays kept changing in the city. When a black vortex closed, a new one opened in another place.
A few people were about to stay there, but the ghosts all over the city noticed the appearance of the aliens and stopped wandering aimlessly. Several ghost shadows flew towards them in an instant!
Yi Xichen's Qi-hiding Talisman hadn't lost its effect yet, and these ghosts were clearly coming for the Song family father and son. Ghosts were mentally handicapped, so once someone stronger than them gave them an order, they would obey without discrimination. Therefore, in the ghost world, the strong were everything, and the weak could only be driven by others.
The eldest grandson Zijun looked at Xiao Kui thoughtfully.
Gongsun Di quickly protected them and felt a headache: "It will never end here. Once we get to the ghost world, won't it be even more troublesome!"
Lu Ziyao said: "Rush in quickly!"
