Wanbao Lady

That night, Chongfan, who was meditating, opened his eyes.

A ghost stood on the steps in front of the mountain gate and bowed from afar towards the vermilion gate.

"I am Li Decai, an old man. I am grateful for your kindness and have come to pay my respects to you on the occasion of your departure."

He bowed deeply.

Then he stood up.

"Your Majesty, for your kindness to the three villages on the East Coast, I can only repay you in my next life by tying the knot with you."

He bowed again.

"It is very rude to disturb you so late at night. With that, I will take my leave."

Having said that, the ghost took two steps back, then turned around and floated down the mountain.

Only when he could no longer sense the presence of that breath did Chong Fan let out a soft sigh.

"Ugh."

Then he shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

-

Seven days later.

The starling flew to the top of the mountain, looked at the monkey spirit who was standing guard voluntarily, and flew straight over.

"Brother Monkey, Brother Monkey, guess what I saw at the bottom of the mountain?"

The monkey spirit made a squeaking sound and glanced at it.

As if asking: What do you see?

The starling couldn't wait to share what it saw and heard.

"You know, I saw a ghost at the foot of the mountain!"

The monkey was stunned.

Before it could say anything, the starling continued excitedly:

"Oh my god! Ever since that fish monster came, I haven't seen a ghost in several years, right?"

It gestured with its wings, "And I saw two at once! One of them has passed the seventh day of mourning, and it's still here!"

The monkey spirit squeaked a few times.

(The fish monsters have been subdued and no longer exist to eat them. Isn’t it normal for them to remain in the human world with obsession?)

The starling was stunned and said, "Yes."

"I almost forgot that the fish demon has been subdued by the Queen, so those ghosts will not be eaten."

Then it flapped its wings and said, "Oh, I saw something strange and I want to tell you about it. But the strange thing is, why do we never see the Yin God here who only collects souls?"

Logically speaking, if there were such a ghost with obsessions that was unable to reincarnate on its own and was trapped in the human world, those ghost gods should have come long ago.

This is what Luoxia Town outside is like.

But it is not the case at the foot of Yudu Mountain.

Before the fish demon came, this place had never been set foot by the Yin God.

When people at the foot of the mountain die, if they have no obsession, their souls will directly enter reincarnation.

If you have obsession, you will be trapped in the human world until the obsession disappears and you enter reincarnation on your own.

If the obsession persists for a long time, either the soul will be destroyed in the wind and rain day after day, or the person will enter reincarnation when his life span is over.

In short, there has never been a scene of evil spirits trapping souls here.

If it weren't for the fish demon that came and ate up all the remaining souls, this place would be very lively at night.

"Oh, why do I think so much? It's none of my business."

The starling bird muttered.

Then he said hello to the monkey spirit and flew away.

He does not mean that.

Zhong Fan, who heard all this, frowned slightly.

Could it be such a coincidence?

She summoned Chong Bing and said, "Go down the mountain and bring the fish monster here."

"Yes!"

Not long after, a catfish spirit appeared on the ground.

-

"I heard that you ate a lot of dead souls in the past?"

Chongfan looked at it steadily.

When the catfish demon heard this, he was so frightened that his soul was scared to death.

It’s over, it’s over, I’ve been discovered.

Who on earth was the one who let this matter out?

"This, that, I didn't know much before, so..."

Under the pressure of Chongfan's gaze, it really didn't dare to lie.

God knows what has happened to it since it was lazy in Mule River.

The taste is so sour!

It doesn't want to experience it again.

Under the pressure from Chongfan, the catfish demon finally told the truth.

It turned out that as soon as he arrived at Mule River, he noticed that many dead souls would emerge from several villages along the shore at night.

Moreover, these dead souls are trapped in the basin under Yudu Mountain and cannot get out even if they want to.

They are too weak to have any impact on reality.

At first, the catfish demon waited for a while, waiting for those evil spirits to come and capture the souls.

But after waiting for a while, it found that there was no Yin Shen here!

It also doesn't know what the reason is.

After waiting for a while, it was really surprised when no one came to care about it even though it called itself the river god.

This is a great place!

Therefore, it used evil methods to absorb those ghosts to assist in its own cultivation.

Adding in human sacrifice, in just a few years, it went from the early stage of marrow cleansing to the middle stage of marrow cleansing.

As for the treasures offered by the residents on the east coast, he kept some of them and offered most of them to the King of Mohe.

It is considered as a way to show filial piety to King Mohe and thank him for his promotion.

After telling what he had done, the catfish demon waited tremblingly for his fate.

Chongfan looked at it in silence for a while, then said, "This sin is so serious that it is unforgivable."

The catfish spirit was frightened out of his wits at once.

It banged its head on the ground and shouted, "My God, please spare me! My God, please spare me! I won't dare to do it again!"

However, a golden light shot out and it was taken into the Demon Locking Tower.

"I will temporarily detain you in the Demon Locking Tower and escort you to the underworld for trial later."

It is said in "Miscellaneous Notes of Cultivators" that evil demons and ghosts that cause chaos will be taken to the underworld for trial and punishment.

Although she has not yet met the underworld, she believes that she will meet it in the near future.

When the time comes, just throw this fish monster there and leave it to them to deal with it.

But there is something strange about the Yudu Mountain after all.

No one cares about the evil demons causing trouble, and no one helps the stranded souls to get them out.

She suddenly understood what the catfish spirit said.

This is a godless place.

Is it because those gods don’t want to care... or is it because they can’t care?

Chongfan visualized the entire Yudu Mountain Range and the basin within it in his mind.

Suddenly she had an idea.

She wanted to verify it.

So Chongfan used the invisible ink robe to become invisible and flew to a height of a thousand meters.

Here, she can take in the big picture and see things more clearly.

-

Today the sky is cloudless and the sun is shining.

Under Chongfan's feet was the Yudu Mountain Range, which was almost circular and surrounded the central basin.

In the center of the basin, a long river meanders through, dividing the basin into east and west banks.

There are several villages scattered on the east and west banks.

This shape... this pattern...

Why does it look so much like the Tai Chi diagram?

Is it man-made?

Or is it simply the magic of nature?

But no matter what, if this is a formation, it is very likely that the formation blocks the inside and the outside.

The evil spirits outside cannot come in, and the evil spirits inside cannot leave.

Then the array eye is likely to be located at the two fish eyes.

Of course, these are all Chongfan’s speculations.

We need to explore further to find out whether it is accurate or not.

With this in mind, she lowered her altitude a bit and located the fish eye according to the direction of the river.

A fish eye was found at the location of a well on the west bank.

Another fish eye is located at a tree on the east bank.

Chongfan took a look and decided to go to the tree on the east bank first.
