A passerby in a horror movie

He knew Li Haotian was not someone to be trifled with, but the guy in red didn't want to give up; in fact, his resentment only grew stronger.

He was tortured to death by that group of evil people before he died, and after his death, his remains were used to suppress him under the building, preventing him from being reborn.

It struggles daily in the altar, enduring endless pain.

He finally arrived at the altar in the building, but due to a problem with groundwater seepage, the pressure on the altar was reduced. He then slowly released his yin energy by smuggling it out, hoping to find a destined person to possess and reincarnate with.

After waiting for decades, he finally found someone born in an unlucky year, month, day, and hour. Such a constitution was most suitable for possessing someone to smuggle them out.

These past few days he has been planning to use this person to enter his wife's womb, thereby returning to the world of the living and avoiding suffering again at the foot of the building.

After all, being a ghost isn't easy either. Ghosts have no physical body; their heavenly soul dissipates, and their human soul cannot remain. Only their earthly soul exists.

The weaker ghosts suffer unbearable pain from even the slightest exposure to wind and sun, and they have to relive the agony of their death every day.

If they are hungry and there are no offerings or incense, they will suffer from unbearable stomach pain.

Therefore, these ghosts would try every means to possess another's body and reincarnate, take the place of the dead, or kill people to increase their own power, all in order to alleviate this pain.

The guy in red was in the same boat. He was about to succeed, but unexpectedly, someone came knocking on his door at this crucial moment.

Under normal circumstances, the man in red would have torn anyone who dared to stop him to pieces and killed them long ago.

It is a vengeful ghost in red, filled with resentment. Even though its true form cannot leave now, the yin energy it leaks out is enough to kill an ordinary cultivator.

However, the man in red dared not make any rash moves against the man in front of him, because he felt unprecedented pressure from the Taoist priest in front of him.

He felt as if he would die if he dared to move even slightly, so he could only try to reason with the Taoist priest.

“Little friend, I sympathize with what you have been through, but that is no excuse for you to kill innocent people.”

“The security guards in this building have no grudge against you. Killing them will only add to your sins.”

Even if you were to be reborn through possession of a living person, you wouldn't be able to exist for long. Eventually, you would accumulate more karmic debts and sins, and you would completely lose the opportunity to be reborn.

"I'm not going to waste my breath on you. I'll give you two choices."

One option is to go to the underworld, where their merits and demerits will be judged, and then they will be reincarnated.

However, you possess a considerable amount of malevolent energy, and you will likely have to endure many years of punishment in hell before you can be reincarnated. But there is still hope for reincarnation.

Secondly, you can try to escape from me. If you can escape from me, I will not interfere in your affairs.

But if you can't escape, I will kill you outright!

Li Haotian spoke slowly and deliberately, his eyes revealing an undeniable authority.

Li Haotian did sympathize with the plight of the boy in red, but he could not tolerate the boy's indiscriminate killing of innocent people.

The other suppressed ghosts at the bottom of the building were alright; they hadn't taken any lives, but their resentment and yin energy were quite strong.

Some of them, due to their special birth charts and the blessing of the altar, became vengeful ghosts, but they were still trapped inside the altar and unable to do evil.

But this red-clad boy is different. The corner of the altar that trapped him has been destroyed. Although his true form cannot leave, he can kill people by relying on the leaked yin energy.

Moreover, Li Haotian could clearly see that this vengeful ghost possessed a great deal of sin and malevolent energy, indicating that it had obviously killed quite a few people.

Li Haotian had just asked Zhong Fabai and the captain about the Central Building. They said that a murder case involving a man in red shirts had occurred in that building decades ago.

When the building was under construction, a group of workers suddenly died. A few workers who survived said they saw a child in red, which is why the building was named "Red-Clothed Boy".

However, this happened a long time ago, and almost no one remembers it.

The building's owner also sold the building, and then the new owner had a Taoist priest perform a ritual temporarily. It took several years for the building to settle down before it reopened.

It is clear that the tragedy that happened decades ago was committed by the Red Shirt Boys.

At the time, the construction workers were simply hired to renovate the basement.

They had never met the Red-Clad Guy before and had no grudge against him. The Red-Clad Guy indiscriminately killed them, and his brutality even surpassed that of Chu Renmei.

Although Chu Renmei slaughtered the entire Huangshan Village, those villagers were more or less connected to her tragic death.

Whether they were aware of it or indirectly involved, their killing can be considered a form of karmic retribution.

Moreover, persuaded by her nephew Xiaoqiang and awakened by the sliver of humanity within her, she ultimately refrained from killing anyone and fell into silence.

Decades later, it was because the remains were dug up and thrown into the river that he harbored resentment and committed murder again.

Moreover, these people went to play the spirit communication game on their own, which is why they provoked Chu Renmei. Later, Chu Renmei even let Fa Mao and Sister Xiaoming go because of Fa Mao's loving behavior.

Unlike this guy in red, who would stop at nothing to be reincarnated and kill anyone he sees.

Of course, Li Haotian also understood that even humans have moments when they lose their temper, let alone vengeful ghosts.

Since vengeful spirits have lost their memories of both their celestial and human souls, their personalities are incomplete. It's hard to say whether they can retain any humanity, let alone expect them to be reasonable.

Although the man in red seemed calm and could speak properly, Li Haotian knew that if it weren't for his own strength, the man in red would have already attacked him.

Therefore, Li Haotian didn't waste any words and directly gave him two choices: either listen to him and go to hell, or be reduced to ashes.

The reason Li Haotian didn't take direct action was because he discovered that besides the boy in red, there were other children's ghosts under the building.

They died a very tragic death.

Moreover, Li Haotian just learned through deduction that these children were all trafficked and had all suffered inhuman torture.

Some were even forcibly molested, while others had their hands or feet cut off. After being tortured, they were used as sacrifices, their deaths were gruesome and unbearable to witness.

Therefore, Li Haotian also felt compassion.

He planned to directly send the ghosts who had not taken human lives to be reincarnated.

Those with heavy yin energy and evil aura are sent to the underworld.

As for the guy in red, Li Haotian left him a way out, not intending to kill him directly, but to send him to hell to be punished according to proper procedures.

Of course, it also depends on whether the guy in red knows what's good for him. If he still wants to die, then Li Haotian wouldn't mind sending him on his way.

"Why should I listen to whatever you say?"

Why can those bad people live so well, while I have to suffer here? Why can't I be reincarnated?

Why should those people live happily ever after, while I have to suffer in the underworld? I refuse to accept this!

The man in red seemed not to have listened to Li Haotian at all. After speaking, his anger intensified, and he roared at Li Haotian as his yin energy erupted.
