C16 Ghost village

I know that Zuo Mu suddenly appearing by my side would only be a fantasy of mine that would never happen. I still couldn't control my thoughts.

The more people I am, the more lonely I feel over the years.

Whenever I'm alone, I imagine in my mind what Zuo Mu would look like when I grow up.

Alone, she will follow my image of Zuo Mu's appearance and unconsciously distance herself from me.

It was said that missing someone was like drinking a glass of cold water, which then took a very long time to turn into hot tears. My yearning for Zuo Mu had hardened over a long period of time. That yearning pain carried a hint of sweetness.

I'm not clear on how I should classify my feelings towards Zuo Mu, but I am clear that Zuo Mu is my mental backer.

I sat in the doorway and stared helplessly at the window. I had no idea what to do. I didn't want to be killed by ghosts, but I was trapped in the room.

It was a long night, and every minute was torture to me, but fortunately the two ghosts did not return until dawn.

As the morning sun shone through the gaps in the curtains into the room, the wall of ghosts in my space gradually faded away, and I finally felt relieved.

Exhausted, I got up from the floor and opened the door without opening it.

After confirming that the door wasn't locked from the outside due to the illusion given by the Wall-Hitting Ghost, I went to the window and opened all the curtains. After silently tidying up the room, I sat on a stool with two tablets and waited for someone to open the door for me.

I need to find out if the two tablets on the incense table were the Aunt Tao's fault or if there was someone who intentionally locking the door from the outside.

Not long after, the sound of mixed footsteps came close to the door of my room, followed by Aunt Tao's voice. She was asking who locked my door.

I didn't hear anyone answer Aunt Tao's question, I heard Aunt Tao telling people to immediately pry open the door.

After the lock was opened, the Aunt Tao brought Yu Kexin and the others in. The rest of the s stayed outside.

I sat on the stool and looked at the Aunt Tao, silently handing over the two tablets in my hands.

Aunt Tao's forehead furrowed, she walked a few steps forward quickly and received the tablet in my hands, then asked Yu Kexin in a low voice what exactly happened.

After I passed over the tablet in my hands, Yu Kexin's face changed greatly. She immediately apologized to Aunt Tao and me, saying that she was in charge of placing the tablet, and that two tokens would appear at the same time on the table. It was due to her carelessness.

It was her fault. She was willing to accept the punishment.

Aunt Tao threw the two tablets onto the ground heavily, and after slapping Yu Kexin in the face, she angrily questioned Yu Kexin, whether she had been careless or had done it on purpose.

Yu Kexin kneeled on the ground with a thump as she covered her face and started crying. She said that she knew it was already too late to explain herself, but she was indeed careless.

Back then, it was her insensible nature that caused me and Aunt Wang to suffer. She had always felt bad for me and Aunt Wang, even if she had the time to make up for it, she wouldn't even deliberately hurt me.

The more Yu Kexin cried, the more hurt she became, the more Aunt Zhen shot me a look, telling me to settle this matter here and now.

I ignored Aunt Zhen's gaze and sat on the chair without moving. I have to get a solution today no matter what.

Yu Kexin cried as she asked Aunt Tao what she could do to help me out of this predicament.

Aunt Tao coldly snorted and stayed silent for a long time, then rubbed her temples and said, once the wedding was completed, the Underworld's wedding list would automatically appear, and there would be no other way to resolve it, unless one went to the Underworld to tear up the wedding list.

If I can't destroy the Underworld Marriage List, I will always have two Ghost Husband s.

I can't kill Ghost Husband myself, otherwise, if I provoke any discontent in the underworld, it will bring about a fatal disaster to myself.

However, Self-bunning Lady was different from ordinary people. According to the rules of the Underworld, ghosts who were matched with nether marriages couldn't disturb the nether marriage of Self-bunning Lady.

If both ghosts had come from the Underworld, things would have been much easier. If both ghosts had been stuck in the Underworld after their deaths, things would have been much more difficult.

ghost servant had always had a shortage of ghosts, so they wouldn't go to the underworld to be punished just because of the wedding.

Right now, what they can do for me is to do their utmost to find my two Ghost Husband s and kill them as quickly as possible. At the same time, they can also teach me more Ghost Path abilities.

Aunt Tao looked at me, and asked how I want to punish Yu Kexin.

When Aunt Tao asked this, Yu Kexin wiped away her tears and looked towards me, her eyes filled with remorse.

I sighed in my heart, got up from the stool to help Yu Kexin up, and said to the Aunt Tao, Luckily nothing has happened to me, so there is no need to punish Yu Kexin.

Yu Kexin's series of reactions made me feel that the two tokens on the incense table were indeed caused by her carelessness.

Furthermore, ten years ago, Aunt Tao had already admitted to me that Yu Kexin was very important to her.

Aunt Tao can even forgive Yu Kexin for causing her death, and Aunt Tao will even forgive Yu Kexin for such a small matter.

What I know about the rules that Self-bunning Lady has to follow and the punishments that anyone who disobeys must receive, are still stuck at the level of being unable to live with others and not being able to get married off.

I do not have a complete understanding of the Self-bunning Lady's rules and punishments, so I do not know what punishment Yu Kexin should bear for committing such a mistake.

The Aunt Tao looked like she was really angry, but her so-called asking for my opinion was just to be polite.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have needed to ask for my opinion and just let Yu Kexin bear the punishment she deserved.

I have already obtained a satisfactory solution, there is no need for me to make it difficult for the old Aunt Tao anymore.

Yu Kexin's tears started to fall once again, and quietly apologized to me. Aunt Tao shook her head, and told Aunt Zhen to take Yu Kexin to receive her punishment.

Aunt Zhen hesitated and did not immediately bring Yu Kexin away, saying that she was worried that Yu Kexin's body would not be able to take the punishment, while Yu Kexin dragged Aunt Zhen and quickly left the room.

I never expected that Aunt Tao would actually punish Yu Kexin.

I was stunned and prepared to tell the Aunt Zhen to stop them. The Aunt Tao stopped me and told me that the rules of the Self-bunning Lady cannot be broken.

Although Yu Kexin was important to her, but if she made a mistake, even if it was a crime of death, it would be hard to escape from it.

The words of the Aunt Tao had a lot of meaning in my heart. The Aunt Tao patted my shoulder, saying that if there was any mistake at my door, she would be held accountable and would be punished. She would wait for me in her room.

Without waiting for me to speak, Aunt Tao turned around and left.

When I changed my wedding uniform to wash up, I heard Yu Kexin's oppressive and miserable screams continuously coming out from a room within the Aunt House. Two Self-bunning Lady stood outside the door to that room, and refused to let anyone else near the room's door.

After I washed up, I directly went to Aunt Tao's room. Aunt Tao told me to tell her about what happened to me last night.

After I finished speaking truthfully, the Aunt Tao made me repeat the words to the first male ghost that entered my room last night.

After I told her again, Aunt Tao said that the method to break the Wall-Hitting Ghost was not only the same as the method she taught me previously.

After that, she will teach me the ability of the Ghost Dao for half a month, and then she will have Aunt Zhen continue to take care of me, and teach me the ability of the Ghost Dao.

After I nodded and said okay, Aunt Tao told me to take my clothes to the Ghost Village with me.

I didn't ask much and just followed Aunt Tao out of the Aunt House.

On the way, Aunt Tao told me that the Ghost Village was originally a peaceful village, but after the Japanese army massacred the village, many ghosts were gathered there.

Of all the places that are closer to the Aunt House, only the ghost village is more suitable for me to raise my Ghost Dao skills.

There are too many ghosts in the Ghost Village. If my two Ghost Husband s were to come to the Ghost Village to mess things up, it would be very troublesome.

I waited for Aunt Tao to finish speaking and told her that I didn't want her to punish me. Aunt Tao held my hand with a faint smile and said that I don't need to worry.

The location of the Ghost Village was very remote and was about half an hour away from the Aunt House.

In the shade of the old elm tree at the entrance of the village, there were many low-level ghosts.

After Aunt Tao and I appeared, those ghosts all stood on their tiptoes and glared at us like tigers stalking their prey.

Aunt Tao told me that elms are easy to attract ghosts.

Its roots often penetrate coffins and grow, and if you bury a man's grave and can't find his exact place, you find an elm tree within a meter of it.

An elm can give birth to a wooden ear, which is also called a ghost ear. A demon sect often uses it to lure their souls and turn the dead into zombies. (TL: Zombie/Zombie/Zombie/Zombie/Zombie/Zombie/Zombie/Zombie/Zombie/Zombie/Zombie/Zombie/Zombie/Zombie/Zombie

In the shade of the elm tree, ghosts that had never ingested human yang energy could easily appear in broad daylight.

At this point, the Aunt Tao stopped ten meters away from the old elm tree and asked me what kind of items I brought to deal with ghosts.

After I said that I only carried a peach wood dagger, the Aunt Tao taught me how to use a peach wood dagger to kill off a low level ghost.

Zuo Mu had also taught me how to use a peach wood dagger to deal with ghosts before, but what Zuo Mu had taught me was how to protect myself and drive ghosts away.

After teaching me, Aunt Tao told me to practice a few times, then told me to get close to the old elm tree by myself, and kill off all the ghosts in the old elm tree's shade with just my peach wood dagger.

Aunt Tao reminded me that although the ghosts gathered under the old elm tree are low level ghosts, there might be some that have absorbed human yang energy and not fear the sun. These types of ghosts are extremely difficult for me to deal with.

I must not be indecisive in the face of ghosts can not have compassion, otherwise low level ghosts can be the same as I will never be able to recover.

She won't help me until I've killed all the ghosts under the old elm tree.

I nodded my head in silence. Grabbing my mahogany dagger tightly, I walked towards the ghosts, who had become increasingly restless after coming to a halt under the locust tree.
