Uncle Jiu's Senior Brother

"What a beast!" Lu Li slammed the table. No matter in this life or past life, what Lu Li hated most was people who bullied women.

"Every time someone came to talk to Master Liu, and Master Liu wanted to discipline the child when he got home, he would be stopped by his wife who would cry and make a fuss. Over time, there was nothing he could do," the shopkeeper sighed.

"A loving mother often spoils her son. So this ghost is the couple who sells calligraphy?" Lu Li asked doubtfully.

"I don't know. It is said that the woman was wearing a red dress and red shoes when she died, with her eyes wide open. It was from then on that the Liu Mansion began to have troubles. First, the followers of the evil young masters died suddenly, and then the maids began to die inexplicably. Later, everyone ran away. Finally, I heard that the evil young master also had an accident. If it weren't for the Guanyin statue that he got from somewhere, the whole family would have died out long ago. Now the only person left in the Liu family is Master Liu and an old servant, and they sleep together. But the people in the town are starting to have bad luck. Alas!"

The shop owners are also victims. Now no one in the town dares to go out to eat.

“When did people start getting into trouble in our town?”

"In the past two weeks, one person dies every day, and fifteen people have died in total." The shop owner seemed to have remembered something horrible.

At this time, Su Mian came up. Lu Li thanked the shopkeeper and started to eat, but his heart was churning. It seemed that he had to go and take a look. Although the evil young man from the Liu family deserved to die, most of the people in the town were innocent. This ghost had obviously lost control and started to harm people indiscriminately. Keeping it alive would be a disaster.

Lu Li decided to visit Liu's residence after dinner. When paying the bill, he asked the owner for the direction of Liu's residence. With the owner's sympathetic look, Lu Li walked towards the south road.

The deep courtyard in front of me is the Liu Mansion. The high blue brick wall can be seen through the wall. The willow trees in the courtyard can be seen. The door of the mansion is not closed, and a white lantern is hung on it. It is obvious that an important family member has passed away. Through the crack in the door, you can see the desolation of the courtyard, with fallen leaves everywhere.

Lu Li stepped forward and knocked on the door.

"Who is it?" An old voice came, and it was obvious that the person who came was not young. This should be the old servant that the store owner mentioned.

The door creaked open a corner, and an old servant in his seventies or eighties leaned out, looking at Lu Li with cloudy eyes.

"Who are you looking for? We have something going on at home recently, so we can't entertain guests."

"Lu Li, the heir of Maoshan, heard about your family's affairs and came to pay his respects."

The old servant looked at Lu Li carefully and felt that he was too young and gave people a sense of instability. Out of kindness, he said: "Young man, I advise you to leave. Even the great monk of Yuntai Mountain lost his life. Don't waste your life in vain."

Not taking the old man's words to heart, Lu Li said calmly, "Don't worry, old man. Since I'm here, I'm sure. Introduce me to the master."

The old man did not persuade him any more: "Well, then follow me." He walked into the courtyard. Lu Li followed behind.

Entering the courtyard, there is a large screen wall in front of you, with bamboo painted on it. Beyond the screen wall is the main hall, with corridors on both sides. It is obvious that the owner is very rich and the house was built in a garden style, but now everything seems a bit gloomy.

After a while, an old man in his sixties came out, looked at Lu Li, turned around and said to the old servant: "Can he do it? He is so young."

"No matter whether it works or not, we have to see it first. You don't have any other way, right? This ghost is getting stronger and stronger, right? The Buddha statue will not be able to hold on any longer." Lu Li said calmly.

The old man's face suddenly turned grim. Indeed, the Buddha statue could only protect a small half of the room now, and it already had cracks.

"Come with me, I hope you are a capable person." The old man turned around and led the way.

He walked around the corridor, passed through an archway, entered a room in the back house, pushed open the door, and a rotten smell came in. Lu Li frowned.

Then he saw a young man lying on the bed. His face was like a skeleton, and his hands and feet were covered with only a layer of skin. If his chest had not been slightly rising and falling, he would have been thought to be a dead man. He exuded the smell of corruption.

Obviously this was the evil young man. Lu Li walked up to him and opened his eyelids, only to see that his eyes were already unfocused.

"How long has he been like this?" Lu Li turned around and asked the old man.

"It happened half a month ago. His mother was seduced away by a female ghost, and he suddenly fainted. He took all kinds of medicine, but nothing worked." The old man said dejectedly.

"This is not something that can be cured by medicine. Do you want to hear the truth? The truth may be harder for you to accept." Lu Li said in a flat tone. It can be said that this evil young man had brought this upon himself.

"What truth?" The old man raised his head and looked at Lu Li.

He is already dead, and what lies here now is just a shell. The soul is gone." Lu Li suddenly turned around and threw out an exorcism talisman, which was attached to the young man's body. A black gas emerged from the young man's body, and then his eyes widened and his chest stopped rising and falling.

"What are you doing?" the old man shouted.

"The reason your son is still breathing is because the female ghost didn't want him to die so easily, so she took away his soul and left a ghost aura to torture his body. I just exorcised the ghost aura."

The old man beat his chest and cried, "This is retribution."

Lu Li did not feel sorry for the old man. If he could discipline the child well, he would not have caused such harm to others. This time he offended a ruthless person and was killed directly, and a large number of people were implicated. This ghost killed dozens of people, and Lu Li was not sure what level of cultivation he had now.

"Where is the female corpse?" Lu Li asked.

"I'll take you there." The old servant looked at Lu Li, then turned and walked out of the room.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, they arrived at a deserted courtyard. There was actually a big locust tree in the courtyard. Pointing to the old servant under the tree, he said, "The female corpse was buried here by those people."

"Damn it!" Lu Li cursed. These people deserved to die. They buried the dead under the locust tree. The locust tree was originally a shade tree, and this deserted courtyard was in the shade. Burying the body here would make it a corpse-raising ground. How could she not be a big deal?

Lu Li picked up a shovel from the wall and started digging under the old servant's surprised look.

"Swish! Swish!" Lu Li threw aside a shovel of soil. He then shoveled another one down and hit something elastic. Lu Li knew it was a corpse.

After shoveling away the dirt on the body, the true appearance of the female corpse was finally revealed.

"How could this happen?" the old servant exclaimed with his eyes wide open.

"What's wrong?" Lu Li looked at the old servant.

"She has been buried for several months, how come she looks like she just died?" said the old servant in disbelief.

Lu Li actually discovered a long time ago that it is impossible for a person who has been dead for several months to still have elastic skin.

The female corpse was seen wearing a red dress, with her hands in claw-like positions on her abdomen, her eyes bloodshot and open with hatred. Her abdomen was flat.

"Hmm? Her belly is flat. Isn't she six months pregnant?" Lu Li asked the old servant.

"Yes, the servants said she is six months pregnant." The old servant answered truthfully.

"Lu Li stepped forward and lifted the clothes on the female corpse's abdomen, only to see a bloody hole where the abdomen should have been flat, and it seemed that something had drilled out of it.

"Mother and child blood demon!" Lu Li narrowed his eyes. This mother and child blood demon is rare. They are both top-tier red ghosts when separated, but when they are combined, they have the strength of a ghost general. If the mother and child are ghost generals, then when they are combined, they can fight against the ghost king.

Lu Li also sighed at his luck. There were only a few ghost generals out there, and he had only encountered two in the past few months.
