In ancient times, he became a god in the mountains.

"I'm not lying." Mother Zhao interrupted, pleading with eager eyes: "Please let me see the soul of my grandson."

"can!"

Gu Yuexi pointed into the void, and Mingke's figure slowly emerged. He was wearing a coarse cloth and a short brown robe, dressed like a young farmer's man.

Mingke never thought that he would be able to meet his grandmother again.

His eyes turned red and he choked up and called out, "Grandma!"

Mother Zhao was sure that she had really seen her grandson. She ran over and hugged him, crying, "Ming Ke, my poor child!"

Unexpectedly, I got nothing.

Mother Zhao was dazed and asked, "How could this happen?"

A trace of sadness flashed across Mingke's eyes.

Gu Yuexi explained: "It is better for living people to keep some distance from ghosts, otherwise the Yin energy will invade the body and the living person will get seriously ill at best, or die at worst."

Ming Ke bowed gratefully: "Thank you, Madam!"

When the grandparents and grandchildren meet, they naturally have endless things to talk about.

"Grandma, you've been deceived. I never sent you a message in your dream, nor did I ask you to send the young lady to marry me in the afterlife."

Mother Zhao sobbed and cried: "Child, are you okay over there?"

"I am OK."

Mother Zhao asked again: "Why didn't you reincarnate?"

In order not to make her worry, Ming Ke explained: "I have only been dead for a year, and many ghosts who have been dead for more than ten years have not yet been reincarnated. I guess there are too many dead souls, so they have to wait for an opportunity."

He sighed: "Grandma, the He family has been very kind to us. How can you face the master and his wife in the future if you do something like this?"

"Fortunately, the young lady is fine. If anything had happened to her, I would not feel at ease even if I were to be reincarnated."

Mother Zhao wiped her tears and said, "On the one hand, I was too worried about you. I was afraid that you would become a wandering ghost. What would you do if you couldn't be reincarnated? On the other hand, I was worried about your father for many years, so I didn't hesitate to let the host steal the young lady's soul."

"Did I do something wrong?"

Ming Ke shook his head: "Grandma, these years, the master and his wife have treated us as family. Is there some misunderstanding about my father?"

In Mother Zhao’s memory.

Her son Minghui was a Jinshi and should have been an official to serve the people. However, despite his great contributions, he was suppressed by his master.

In order to realize his ambition, her son had to marry into the family of the former county governor. As a result, the former county governor had an affair with foreign enemies and his three clans were exterminated, and her son was implicated.

For her son's life, she knelt in the cold rain, her head was broken and blood was all over the ground, but she did not get any sympathy from the master and the mistress. She even felt that the master and the mistress owed her all these years. Now her grandson told her that it was all a misunderstanding.

Misunderstand?

Have it?

He Jinzong listened to the conversation between the grandfather and grandson, and recalled distant memories: "I want to explain Minghui's matter to you clearly!"

He sighed heavily: "Mother Zhao, everything I'm going to say next is true. If I tell even a single lie, I'll be struck by lightning."

He was lost in deep memories: "Minghui and I grew up together, we were like brothers, he was lively and intelligent, so I asked my grandfather to let him study with me. God helps those who work hard, in the third year of my tenure as county magistrate, he finally passed the imperial examination and became a Jinshi."

"He was assigned to work under me. I originally wanted to promote him to be the magistrate of the next county. He would be a local official, so that he wouldn't be wasting his years of hard work."

"He is a stubborn person, and his ideas run counter to mine. He passed the imperial examination and did not want to be a civil servant, but insisted on becoming a military commander. After he led the troops to quell the banditry in Xiping County, he was even more determined to join the military camp. At that time, the current emperor had not yet ascended the throne, and military commanders were not taken seriously."

"Plus, the military power of Xiping County was in the hands of Prince Yue, who was the late emperor's younger brother. Minghui wanted to take control of the military power. At the very least, he was competing for power with Prince Yue, and at the most, he was rebelling. In order to prevent Prince Yue from seeing him as a thorn in his side, I asked him to give up his military power and become a county school teacher, and then seek promotion later."

"Unexpectedly, one of his men raped a pregnant woman, and the woman committed suicide by jumping into a well. In order to save his men's lives, he gave the woman's husband several hundred taels of silver in public."

"This incident has caused widespread resentment among the people. In order to protect the reputation of the county school, I will let him stay at home for a few days and find a good place for him when the storm subsides."

"You know what happened next. He ran away and met the widowed sister of the former county magistrate, and later married into the county magistrate's mansion."

"The county governor had colluded with foreign enemies and his entire clan was exterminated by His Majesty. Minghui was implicated. I thought it had nothing to do with him, so I wanted to get him out. Who knew that the letters between the county governor and the foreign enemies were all written in his handwriting."

"Minghui participated in the former county magistrate's collusion with foreign enemies and left evidence. In order not to implicate the He family, I can only reluctantly abandon this friend."

"If I had really gone to save him, the He family would no longer exist, and you and Mingke would not have had a happy ending."

The truth that had been buried in his heart for many years finally came to light, and He Jinzong breathed a sigh of relief. He thought Mother Zhao would understand his intentions, but he didn't expect that he would indirectly harm his daughter.

"This is the whole truth!"

"Minghui... How could Minghui be involved in a rebellion?" When Mother Zhao heard the unbelievable truth, tears flowed unconsciously.

"Have I really hated the wrong person all these years?"

"Wuwuwu... The master has helped my son many times, but I turned my kindness into enmity and almost killed the young lady. I deserve to die!"

She bumped into the pillar, but Gu Yuexi pulled her back with her spiritual power: "If you do something wrong, you should think about making amends instead of choosing to escape."

"Well, the feud between you is over, it's time to discuss the purpose of my trip."

"Is the Golden Saint Lady going to subdue that mysterious ghost?" He Jinzong stood up nervously: "I wonder where that ghost is hiding now?"

Gu Yuexi said softly: "Madam He, what do you think?"

He Jinzong was stunned: "What's wrong, Madam?"

Mrs. He was equally confused.

Gu Yuexi raised her hand, pinched a few runes between her fingers, and threw the runes towards Mrs. He.

"what!"

Mrs. He suddenly screamed in pain.

He Jinzong felt a chill in his heart. Madam... Madam, what happened?

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I don't know what mistake my wife made that made you so angry." He knelt down and begged for mercy.

Luo Yousong pulled him away and pointed ahead in horror: "Brother He, my sister-in-law..."

"What's wrong?" He Jinzong looked at his trembling hands.

"lady!"

Mrs. He was covered with red hair, which was weird and made people feel cold all over!

He Jinzong had an idea in his mind, but he suppressed his fear and asked, "Madam...what's wrong? Could it be that she..."

"The secret art of symbiosis. No wonder other cultivators can't detect your presence!"

Gu Yuexi formed seals with his hands, and a halo enveloped Madam He. The light from the halo was soft and bright, but it made Madam He feel extremely painful.

Looking at He Jinzong, Gu Yuexi said concisely: "This is the ghost hidden in the He family!"
