Chapter 377: North Sea (V)
"Something extraordinary?"

Liu Fei blinked her eyes, and considering the topics discussed by the previous few people, she quickly reacted.

"You mean he found a way to break the illusion of the ruined village?"

"Breaking this illusion is not the key. The key is that he can use it to severely damage the starving ghost." Ge Hong glanced at Liu Fei and said solemnly.

"When I entered this village, my purpose was the same as his now, but I searched for a long time, and was even beaten by the Xuanhuang Hungry Ghost and became seriously injured and confused."

Ge Hong sighed, stroked his goatee and exclaimed: "If he really found the clue to break this illusion in such a short time, it would be really..."

Ge Hong shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Comparing yourself to others will only make you angry!"

"Oh no, I'm dead now, hahaha..."

As if he just realized that he was already dead, Ge Hong burst into laughter.

Madam Bai and Liu Fei looked at Ge Hong with indifference. They were not impressed by Ge Hong's dry humor.

"Cough cough~"

Seeing that both of them had expressionless faces, Ge Hong coughed twice to hide his embarrassment, and then said.

"You two should prepare yourself now, so that you won't be unable to react if something unexpected happens in the illusion."

Although Madam Bai and Liu Fei didn't seem to want to pay attention to him, Ge Hong still reminded them.

"Thank you for your kindness." Mrs. Bai tapped the ground with her cane and thanked him.

Ge Hong smiled and said nothing more. Now that he had turned into a soul, the burden in his heart was not as heavy as when he was alive.

"Aunt, why don't we go over and take a look? After all, this matter is related to us as well." Liu Fei suggested in a low voice.

"You're right. After all, this is a matter of life and death, and we can't rely entirely on others." Mrs. Bai nodded.

The two of them had a brief discussion, and then, under Ge Hong's gaze, they chased in the direction Lin Beixuan left.

……

"right here!"

Lin Beixuan raised his head and glanced at the dilapidated hut.

This hut was even more dilapidated than the scene in his mind. There were some tiny holes around the mud walls, and living in it could only barely provide shelter from wind and rain.

Lin Beixuan walked forward and pushed open the door of the hut. What appeared before him were only a few simple tables, chairs, benches and a wooden bed, and nothing else.

"This family must have been the poorest in the ruined village when they were alive."

Lin Beixuan followed the ray of Yin energy he felt and came to a corner in front of a stove in the hut.

"The Yin energy seeps out from here. Although it is very weak, it cannot escape my eyes."

Lin Beixuan has been dealing with ghost soldiers for a long time and is more familiar with the evil spirit than those demon catchers in the secular world, so he basically won't make a mistake.

At this moment, he stared at the corner, stretched out his hand and reached directly into the ground, digging out the things buried underneath.

It was the remains of a human being.

The corpse had already passed the decay stage, leaving only traces of being eaten by insects and ants.

But this was not what shocked Lin Beixuan the most. What confused him was that the corpse was that of a ten-year-old child.

And the moment he brought the corpse out of the ground, the situation outside the dilapidated village suddenly changed, and the flow of time began to become unstable and chaotic.

"Huh...huh..."

The violent gale cut through the space, making a sound like a ghost's roar.

Liu Fei and the other person who had just arrived outside the hut noticed something was wrong and looked up at the sky.

At this moment, the sky above the dilapidated village suddenly changed color, and the clouds were floating at an incredible speed.

The sky gradually darkened, but the two huge, shining suns never set.

Or rather, it was not dark at all, but something appeared in the sky, and the two suns were the eyes of a giant creature.

"It's that hungry ghost!"

Mrs. Bai immediately guessed the figure hidden behind the sky, because they had been caught up by the figure before and knew how terrifying the giant that was bigger than a mountain was.

"Did he really find the core of this village?" Mrs. Bai said in shock.

Then, her expression became uncertain, and there was a hint of madness flashing in her eyes.

"Should we take this opportunity to take away Luozhou's Earth Vein Heart?"

It is undeniable that this moment must be a great opportunity.

Now there are strange phenomena in the dilapidated village. The Xuanhuang hungry ghosts waiting outside seem to know what they are doing and will most likely take action to obstruct the terrifyingly powerful Lord of the Underworld.

This is the best time for them to seize the heart of the earth veins.

However, when Mrs. Bai turned around and looked at Liu Fei, Liu Fei seemed to know what Mrs. Bai was thinking. She was silent for a moment and then shook her head.

"Aunt, I suggest that we better not do this."

"Why? Are you scared?" Mrs. Bai looked as if she was disappointed in her son.

Liu Fei shook her head: "I just have a hunch that if we dare to mess around at this time, he will definitely kill us."

"I'm afraid I won't hold back this time!"

Liu Fei's eyes trembled slightly. When she learned of Mrs. Bai's thoughts, it seemed as if countless voices in her head were warning her not to do this.

Liu Fei took a deep breath: "It won't be long before chaos breaks out here. Although this gives us a chance, the danger is also greatly increased. Aunt, I don't want to die here yet!"

This time, Liu Fei spoke to Mrs. Bai in a very serious tone.

Since entering Luozhou, Liu Fei has basically obeyed Mrs. Bai's arrangements. She has a quiet personality and doesn't like to compete with Mrs. Bai for who is in charge.

Besides, the other person was her aunt, so she felt it was okay to give in in certain places.

But since it concerns her own life, Liu Fei does not want to hand the decision-making power to Mrs. Bai this time.

However, Mrs. Bai didn't seem to listen to Liu Fei's words and said with a frown.

"After obtaining the Earth's core, not only can we solve your father's problem, but our city and rivers and lakes gang can also use this item to become the largest official external force in Xuan Country."

"I think this risk is worth taking. Niece, are you going to go against me for an outsider?!"

Liu Fei's expression remained unchanged after hearing this. Even though Madam Bai used her father's matter as an excuse, she still did not change her mind. "The fact that the Earth Heart can delay the impact of secularization is just a guess. Even the Elders' Council has not been able to confirm it yet."

"And I think the most important thing is to return alive. If you risk your life for the sake of risking your life, it's not a worthwhile thing to do." Liu Fei said lightly.

"Aunt, I know that your body in this world is also being affected by the secularization. It may not be long before you are lying in bed like my father, relying on nutrient solution to keep you alive."

"But please remember, this is no reason for you to risk my life. I would hate it if you did that!"

After saying this, a breeze suddenly blew off Liu Fei's body, and the color of her clothes instantly turned bright red. An illusory big red veil floated from the air and gently covered her head, making her look like a bride who was about to get married.

"you……"

Mrs. Bai's whole face turned gloomy.

She was originally in her thirties, but now she looked to be in her seventies. Not only had she lost her beautiful looks, but her body had also become hunched.

So whenever she saw the slim and graceful Liu Fei appear in front of her, she couldn't help feeling jealous.

Why is it that the newcomers now have it much easier than we did back then, and don’t have to face so many dangers alone?

Why has Liu Fei been able to maintain her youthful and beautiful appearance for so long, without any sign of aging on her face?

Why was the other party chosen by the God of Happiness instead of her!

Sometimes the resentment deep in a person's heart is like a dot, which will gradually expand until it becomes a circle, and even if there is some affection between the two people, it cannot be concealed.

This is especially evident when life is about to come to an end.

Madam Bai looked at Liu Fei coldly: "Since you don't want to go, I will go by myself."

"I won't force you, but I hope you won't hinder me from fighting for my life. Otherwise, don't worry about your aunt not caring about that little bit of family relationship."

The wind blew the hem of Liu Fei's gorgeous and exquisite wedding dress. She said nothing, but just watched Mrs. Bai leave quietly.

The two people's choices diverged at this moment.

Liu Fei knew that if it was really as Mrs. Bai thought, and the other party successfully took the Heart of the Earth Vein and brought it back to the hall, then she and her family’s weddings and funerals would probably face accountability from the elders.

But she didn't want to take the chance.

Besides, apart from the premonition in her mind, she succeeded in summoning the God of Happiness very easily this time, and the other party seemed to be signaling to her.

At this time, don't take any risky actions, just follow that person.

She didn't know why the God of Happiness had such a good impression of the masked Lord of the Underworld, just as she wondered why the other party always showed mercy to her.

"Does he know me?"

As soon as this thought came to Liu Fei's mind, she saw the door of the hut opened and Lin Beixuan walked out with a corpse in his hand.

Lin Beixuan glanced at Liu Fei who was standing at the door, and frowned slightly when he saw that Mrs. Bai was not there.

However, he did not care about it, but turned his gaze to the high sky.

"Boom..."

The dull thunder resounded through the sky and earth, and the black clouds were very low to the ground, giving people a depressing and suffocating atmosphere.

The two golden suns in the sky strangely did not set, like two huge eyes, staring at Lin Beixuan.

"Haha!" Lin Beixuan sneered, "It seems that I found the right person, otherwise you wouldn't be so angry."

Lin Beixuan's right eye was burning with golden flames, and his left eye was filled with black mist. He saw through all illusions and met the eyes of the Xuanhuang hungry ghost without any sign of cowardice.

When he found the corpse, which was the source of resentment and despair in the ruined village, his fear of the Xuanhuang hungry ghost was greatly alleviated.

Looking down at the skeleton in his hand, Lin Beixuan sighed, "It really fits the old saying. The kinder and more honest people are, the more they can endure misfortunes that ordinary people cannot. When the misfortunes accumulate to a certain threshold, they will explode like a bomb..."

Lin Beixuan raised his head again and said slowly: "That endless resentment."

The prompts on the panel were jumping very fast, and the corpse that Lin Beixuan was holding tightly began to emit bursts of black smoke at some point.

[You picked up the original remains of Xuan Huang, the original hungry ghost (gold).]

[Original Relics (Gold): A good horse is often ridden by others, and a good person is often bullied. This is never a good world.

He lost his father at the age of three and his mother at the age of five. His parents taught him since childhood to be kind to others so as to accumulate merit and win people's hearts. However, people are cold and kind-hearted, so they can be bullied.

When brave kindness becomes the object of indifference and ridicule, when evil becomes a habit, then things will turn into the opposite extreme, and extreme goodness will turn into extreme evil, bringing the darkness in the world. 】

[Note: You have pieced together the Fate Fragment - Six Paths of Beings obtained from the Original Hungry Ghost - Xuan Huang, and successfully obtained the Fate Fragment - Six Paths of Beings (Gold) from the other party.]

[Six Paths of Beings (Gold): Three good paths; gods, humans, and Asuras; three evil paths; hell, hungry ghosts, and animals. Reincarnation continues in the six paths. When you abandon this aggregate, you will return to another aggregate. Good and evil will be rewarded, and you will be obsessed with cause and effect.]

[Note: You can add the fate-six paths of sentient beings-hungry ghosts into your outfit fate. ]

[Note: After fusing a special fate, the fate you have fused cannot be changed or removed.]

[Note: After integrating Fate - Six Paths of Beings - Hungry Ghosts, your incense temple will passively activate Divine Power - Hungry Ghosts of Reincarnation.]

[Note: With the integration of special fate, your residence will undergo unknown changes, your divine realm will undergo unknown changes, and your incense temple will undergo unknown changes...]

[Note: The special atlas has been opened. You have collected the information of the six realms of corpses and the six realms of hungry ghosts. After collecting all the information and opening the atlas, you will receive a lot of rewards. ]

[Note: You have collected all the twelve common ghosts in the secular world: starving ghosts, ghost mothers, infant spirits, resentful ghosts, weapon ghosts, hanged ghosts, lonely monks, house ghosts, red clothes, plague ghosts, idiot ghosts, and water ghosts.]

[Note: The Twelve Common Ghosts in the Secular World has been opened. You can choose to obtain the Fate Equipment Column +2, All Paths of the Lord of the Bai Ze Shui Jun Shrine, and the Yin God Fate - Judge (Purple). ]

……

A series of panel prompts almost filled Lin Beixuan's mind.

He didn't expect that just by picking up this corpse, he would obtain the complete life pattern of the six paths of Xuanhuang hungry ghosts, and at the same time activate the function of fusing special fates.

"Also, what does it mean that after integrating the special fate, the incense temple will passively open the divine power?"

"Reincarnation, hungry ghosts..."

Compared to obtaining the Xuanhuang Hungry Ghost Fate, Lin Beixuan no longer cares about the reward he has received for collecting the Twelve Common Ghosts Illustrations.

At his current stage, he has already opened all the paths of Baize Shuijun. The purple destiny that he once considered very precious is now dispensable. However, the added equipment column is still somewhat useful.

Lin Beixuan was thinking, but his hands did not stop moving.

The original corpse emitted bursts of black smoke in Lin Beixuan's hand, which seemed to contain the crying of a baby, the howling of a child, and the silent whispers of a slightly mature child.

No one would have thought that the source of the starving ghosts that turned Luozhou into a ghost town and killed countless people was actually just the despair and resentment that came from the death of a farm child.
