Taking a deep breath and biting my lip, I dug my nails into the palm of my hand. The sharp pain suddenly woke me up.
After walking a considerable distance and ensuring that no one was following, I dared to glance back.
She stood still in front of the courtyard, her cries were so faint due to the distance.
The sympathy was fading gradually, my muddled emotions were calming down, but my breath became heavier.
Old woman, could it be that you're a spirit of emotion!?
Emotions, also known as "qingzhu," are referred to as the "Seven Emotions" or "the Seven Dots of Joy and Grief." They are joy, anger, sorrow, worry, grief, fear, and surprise.
The emotion she evoked was sadness. Her cause of death must have been too much sadness. Even after her death, her attachment is also such, lasting for a long time and not dispersing!
I just barely realized why she, being just a white heart ghost, could still survive in the Qi village.
In normal circumstances, ghosts who roam after death and do not go for reincarnation are usually supported by their persistence and resentment.
Their emotions are extremely monotonous.
Once infected with another emotion, they are highly likely to forget their attachments and recall other events from their past lives, which could then threaten their own safety!
This threat may be during a dangerous moment when they cannot react and defend themselves, or it may cause them to collapse and crumble on their own.
Moreover, without the attachment, the soul body may no longer be able to coagulate. This is a kind of disintegration of the soul and essence to a certain extent!
To ordinary ghosts, the emotion-spirits are like poison.
This is even more so for those with insufficient resolve.
I recovered instantly, completely thanks to the fact that over the years, my willpower has been honed by my blood feud and Old Qin's various methods, which is not easily swayed.
At this moment, the old woman actually waved at me, indicating for me to come over.
I no longer looked at her and continued walking in the direction of southwest.
This village road is straight, but southwest is not completely straight.
Just as I felt I was about to take a wrong turn, a bamboo forest came into view. A narrow path beside the forest led exactly in the southwest direction.
Here is exactly where I came from earlier. On one side of the path, there are dense bamboo forests.
On the other side, there is a neglected and extremely dirty yard.
The ghost in that yard must have been eaten.
I followed that narrow path for about seven or eight minutes.
Another yard came into view.
The courtyard was clean and tidy, with two red lanterns hanging at the gate.
Under the lanterns, there were actually several "people" standing there, all watching the courtyard.
I carefully hid in the bamboo forest and closely observed them.
The big shoes, heels elevated, toes raised - they were all ghosts!
Moreover, their eye sockets were all blood red, indicating that they were malevolent ghosts!
Normally, these malevolent ghosts would not gather together.
It's all because of the disturbances inside the courtyard!
It's also because of those movements that they didn't even notice me hiding nearby...
……
Laughter echoed, like tinkling bells, pleasant and clear.
The ancestral hall is open, and the windows of the right side of the house are also open.
At the window, two women were sitting on the bed and whispering to each other, watching outside.
One woman exuded a natural charm from within. With a delicate, V-shaped face and skin as fair as if there were no blemishes, her hair was tied up and slanted over her shoulder.
Those fox eyes seemed to be eyes with a hint of seduction.
The other woman was equally alluring, and it was none other than Hua Ying!
When I first saw Hua Ying, I thought she was extremely beautiful. After several encounters with her in different makeup looks, along with her words and actions, it wasn't just her appearance that was stunning; she seemed to pierce through people's hearts, making it impossible for them to resist.
However, after I understood the surface, Hua Ying's charm could no longer affect me.
I also vaguely sensed that she did not use this "thing" against me. At this moment, she openly displayed her charm without any reservation.
Two women, one with fox-like charm, and one with a charming demeanor.
These ghosts outside are completely disoriented. They are eager to enter, but dare not do so.
However, a massive stone fell in my heart.
Zhao Kang is using Shi Qing's appearance, so there is no problem for Hua Ying.
I can also see his purpose at a glance.
No wonder... Old Gong said that Hua Ying attracts ghosts and has a myriad of charms!
Zhao Kang has absolutely no good intentions!
Any ghost who enters will be in for a tough time!
At this moment, Shi Qing suddenly sat up, and with this action, the clothes on her shoulders slowly slid down. Her fox-like eyes were even more alluring with the flowing water.
In the flash of her white, delicate skin, the window closed.
The laughter and chatting of the women came to an end and settled into quiet.
This silence lasted only a moment before the ghosts at the gate turned red with lust.
Suddenly, one ghost lunged at the other with a ferocious attack, biting fiercely with its mouth wide open!
In an instant, several ghosts were in a chaotic mess, their angry and malicious screams making one's scalp tingle with fear!
How ferocious are blood-vengeance ghosts? Soon, one ghost was unfortunate enough to be attacked by two other ghosts. It was quickly torn in half and quickly devoured.
Initially, there were six ghosts, and in a blink of an eye, there were only four left.
They continued to devour the remaining ghosts.
The moonlight was extremely cold, and fortunately, ghosts do not bleed. Otherwise, the yard outside would have been a scene of bloodshed!
Soon, only two ghosts remained...
They were fighting, tearing, and devouring each other!
Since they did not flee but fought head-on, soon, only the last ghost remained...
This last ghost can be seen as having eaten all the previous ghosts.
The strong ghost qi was spreading continuously, and the gray yin qi seemed like substance.
He was extremely excited, took a step into the courtyard, and with one step, he was inside the ancestral hall!
The door of the ancestral hall was open, and I could see him push open the door on the right side.
In the next second, after he entered, the door slammed shut...
Then there was silence...
There were no struggles, no fighting, and no unnecessary sounds...
Time became extremely slow, almost like living second by second.
I hid in the bamboo forest, staring for at least one or two hours.
A loud bang, followed by a burst of black gas, forced open the window.
The black qi was actually land qi!
After the window was opened, one could see Hua Ying sitting quietly on the bed.
She had a face without expression, but behind her, there was a pink mist that looked like water, flowing like a river. Although it wasn't human-shaped, it had an even stronger sense of charm.
In front of her, Shi Qing's face was constantly changing, sometimes into Zhao Lin, sometimes into Zhao Kang and a few other faces, and finally back to Shi Qing!
I was already drenched in sweat...
Using this method to make ghosts consume each other, and then consuming the last one... It's equivalent to getting supplemented several times in one go.
The character for color sits atop a knife!
Not just for humans, but for ghosts as well!
Suddenly, the pink mist on her back enveloped Huaying's body. Huaying's face, which had no expression before, became extremely seductive. Her melodious and ringing laughter, like the tinkling of silver bells, echoed far and wide...
"Shi Qing" also hummed a lively tune, echoing far and wide.
I dared not go out directly now.
I don't know what's going on with Huaying, but I am definitely not a match for Shi Qing right now!
I hesitated for a moment and retrieved the Siye jade piece.
At this moment, a ghost slowly walked over from the side of the bamboo forest.
My pupils constricted slightly, and I recognized it immediately.
This ghost had appeared in front of me earlier, trying to take Old Gong, but it was scared away by me.
At this time, he stopped in front of the courtyard and greedily looked at Huaying and Shi Qing, his expression similar to that of the previous few ghosts!
