My lady, don't be angry. I'm letting you touch my big tail.

Joey immediately turned around, but there was nothing behind her.

She can definitely still see ghosts, because she kissed Hanazono on the lips while taking a bath.

That means he deliberately lured them to some place.

Suddenly, a house at the far end, which had been dark, suddenly lit up with a "whoosh".

As night fell, Zhao Daxian also looked at that house.

The next moment, a bloody handprint appeared on the paper window.

Zhao Daxian immediately screamed, "Ahhh! A ghost! A vengeful ghost!"

Qiao Yi had long known from Zhao Daxian's appearance that she had the ability to see ghosts, and she had also heard that she was a lay disciple of a certain Taoist temple.

But her scream still made my ears hurt.

"Don't make any noise!"

As soon as he finished speaking, candles were lit in the two houses in front of the last house.

Bloody handprints appeared one after another, and the window was immediately covered in blood.

Zhao Daxian stood to the side, holding her head and shouting even louder.

"This...this is terrifying! I've been dealing with these kinds of things for ten years, and I've never seen such a sinister aura before!"

Joey picked at her ear.

"You've been dealing with this for ten years, what have you been dealing with?"

"Ahem...funerals and feng shui consultations..."

Joey sighed, "To put it bluntly, he's the emcee at her world's funeral home."

"Alright, alright, if you're scared, then go hide somewhere else."

"No, senior, I also have something to tell you!"

Qiao Yi pushed Zhao Daxian aside and walked directly to the door of the house at the end.

Hua Ran followed closely behind Qiao Yi, her hands behind her back, her eyes already filled with murderous intent.

Soon, the door opened by itself with a creak, as if no one had touched it.

It seems to be an invitation.

Hua Ran tugged at Qiao Yi's sleeve.

"My lady... I'll go in first."

However, as soon as he finished speaking, a fluffy white tail wrapped around Qiao Yi's waist. Fearing that Hua Ran might get hurt, Qiao Yi swatted Hua Ran away and was pulled into the room.

Before leaving, he added, "Don't worry, I'll be fine. I have my own goals. Take care of yourself!"

Then the door slammed shut, and all the candles in the room went out.

Hua Ran immediately wanted to break down the door, but he could still feel his wife's yang energy, and he remembered that his wife said she had her own purpose, so he could only clench his fists and purse his tender red lips.

As for Joey, she entered the room, which was pitch black, with occasional silvery shadows flitting about.

The room was also filled with the fragrance of lotus flowers.

Joey said, "You dragged me in here because you have something to say?"

The guy slowed down as he moved around the room and started teasing Joey every now and then with his fox tail.

Sweep across her face, brush against her neck.

Joey added, "You didn't let me in just to seduce me, did you?"

In an instant, the guy appeared behind Joey, leaned close to her ear, exhaled a breath of hot air, and said, "What if I said yes?"

The man reached out and tapped Qiao Yi's little nose before quickly disappearing.

In the end, that person's figure could be seen in front of the cabinets, desk, and bed in the room.

Her every frown and smile was indistinguishable from that of a real flower dyer.

Joey chuckled.

"What do you gain from seducing me? Everything in this world is a matter of give and take; you expect something in return for what you give. You know I'm with the real Hua Ran now. You're not so stupid as to think that the consciousness of a crippled limb can replace him, are you?"

The person finally landed in front of Joey.

Su Jiazhengfu said that this guy looks exactly like Hanazono, except for the color of his ears and tail.

But Joey looked at him and felt that what he said was wrong.

Hua Ran's features were softer than this guy's, and her alluring eyes carried a warmer quality.

Just like Hua Ran often criticizes people, but he's just sharp-tongued and soft-hearted.

The one in front of me had sharp eyes and a ruthless appearance.

He said, "If you had met me first, who do you think you would have fallen in love with?"

"If I had met you first, I probably wouldn't have fallen in love with anyone else."

The man frowned and reached out to grab Qiao Yi's neck, but Qiao Yi was prepared. She had already gathered yang energy in her two fingers and slashed the man's flesh open.

"Well!"

The man quickly fell backward and crashed to the ground.

She covered her face with her other hand, her eyes filled with tears.

"it hurts……"

"You are the embodiment of the consciousness of a severed limb, how much pain could you possibly be in?"

"you……"

The man slammed his hand on the ground in frustration, saying, "You have no mercy for women, this is not the behavior of a proper woman."

"I only cherish Hua Ran; I have no interest in showing any pity for you, a derivative product."

Upon hearing this, the man didn't get angry but laughed and got up again.

The injury on my hand disappeared instantly.

“Starting from Bianliang County, head northeast to a place called Yunxian Village, where Hua Ran’s other severed hand is suppressed. There is also a male spirit there with a red butterfly mark on his face.”

After saying that, he disappeared.

The bloody handprints on the window gradually faded until they disappeared completely.

Joey didn't understand.

Why did he tell me this?

The spirit that grew from the severed limbs should have hoped that Hua Ran would never find them all in her lifetime.

Because once all the souls are found, one body cannot give birth to two souls, and any resulting spirits or monsters will inevitably disappear.

What is he planning?

Also, isn't the male spirit with the butterfly mark on his face the same male spirit that was monitoring them in the secret realm at the bottom of the river?

The female ghost who was monitoring the movements of the entire Shiqiao Village was killed by Joey.

Finding that male spirit might also provide an opportunity to follow the clues and find the person behind it all.

It sounds like it's all beneficial to me.

But... Joey felt something was off.

What reason would that person have to help Hua Ran and him?

As soon as Qiao Yi stepped off the stairs, Hua Ran pounced on her.

"My darling, are you hurt, or does anything hurt?"

Joey shook her head.

Hua Ran was still worried.

He patted Joey's shoulders, arms, waist, and legs to make sure she was alright before he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Scared me!"

Hua Ran hugged Qiao Yi and kissed her.

Qiao Yi said, "Hua Ran, we probably won't be able to stay in this newly built house for more than a few days. We'll have to go somewhere else for now..."

She told Hua Ran what had happened inside.

Hua Ran hasn't made a statement yet.

Zhao Daxian, come over here first.

"Senior, look at you, you encountered such a powerful vengeful ghost and came out unscathed, which shows you have real skills! I want to ask for your help. In the northeast, there is a place called Yunxian Village, where my senior sister is trapped and can't get out. Can you help rescue her? I'll give you money, I can give you all my money!"

"What did you say? Yunxian Village?"

"Right, right."

Meanwhile, in the consciousness space, the system speaks.

"Baozi, a new mission has come up: go to Yunxian Village. The reward is just silver, but the price is... five thousand taels. And it's a mandatory mission; there will be a penalty if you don't accept it."

Qiao Yi thought that she would do it even without the five thousand taels.

Coincidences in the world all contain some kind of cause and effect.

It all depends on what the cause and effect of Yunxian Village is.
