Chapter 10, The Master Elder

However, this old man is undoubtedly a master.

The old man snorted, "Not only is it mysterious, but it's also sinister. If it weren't for my sect suppressing him here with a strange object, and if he only had one soul outside, with your kind of character, a mere breath from you would be enough to make you disappear."

After steadying himself, Liu Jin walked up to the old man and said with a dry smile: "Thank you for the life-saving grace, senior."

Old Master: `` ... ... ''

Liu Jin soon discovered something different

I just said, there isn't even half a bottle of water, and with a little trick, they come out to flaunt and deceive, a person without any skills or knowledge.

"Exorcism? Can you do it?" The old man looked at Liu Jin with a mocking expression

Liu Jin glared.

Liu Jin was overjoyed and quickly followed.

Then how is it now? Liu Jin asked curiously

"Are you trying to scare me? Then go ahead and try, does this count as a scare?" the ghost bride sneered

Cough, cough, even if this kid made a mistake unintentionally, it shouldn't warrant a death sentence, right? Yan Xueqin, you have cultivated your mind and character for so many years, and you are about to transcend soon; don't let all those years of effort be ruined in an instant

A thousand people slain, this is indeed brutal

The old man glanced at Liu Jin and said: "What? Is there something else on your mind? Speak up, otherwise I have no interest in drinking."

A large group of ghosts hanging from the tree suddenly appeared before him, surrounding him in the middle.

"Do you see? These are all the troublesome things that have provoked me over the years. You will become just like them," the Ghost Bride said with a cold smile.

The ghost bride was taken aback: "What did you say?"

I just said that when I wanted to be torn apart by five horses earlier, it felt wrong

Hmm? The old man looked at the ghost bride

The old man smiled and said, "Of course, it was when I encountered my grandfather. He did not heed the advice and effortlessly suppressed it.

Liu Jingan smiled lightly and said, "It is a family tradition, and I have a basic understanding of it."

Then, a large group of hanging ghosts reached out and grabbed Liu Jin's limbs, pulling from all directions

There is nothing much to it. The young man is inexperienced and has only a superficial understanding of this matter. As you have seen today, he almost lost his life. The young man does not seek anything else; he simply wishes to hear stories to avoid being reckless and endangering his life in the future.

Alright

Oh? The old man paused his steps, looking at Liu Jin with some surprise

The century-old female ghost did not dare to let out even a single fart in front of him, which reveals a glimpse of the situation

"Master? Please, enlighten us." The old man wore a look of disdain, appearing completely unconcerned.

The relationship almost fell apart

"Alright, alright, alright, today a junior came to visit me and prepared a feast, just like the old days." The old man waved his fan, looking cheerful, completely resembling a friendly neighbor.

Are you sure? The old man suddenly changed his expression, and his gaze became sharp.

Liu Jin is speechless

The ghost bride coldly stated: "If you violate my taboo, you shall die"

Ding: Teasing successful, breath-holding + 1

"Senior, look, this encounter is destined. May I treat you to a drink?" Liu Jinxin's thoughts whirled, and she suddenly revealed a flattering smile, humbly asking.

After sitting down, the old gentleman waved a palm fan and asked, "Speak, what do you wish to know?"

Looking at what you said, how can it be called confusion? That is called affinity, as the saying goes ... ...

After speaking, seemingly worried that the impact was insufficient, he directly added: "You should have heard of him, my grandfather, Mao Xiaofang"

The ghost bride fell silent for a moment

Suddenly, a shout rang out, and then a person in the distance, seemingly strolling, arrived close after just a few steps

Hmm

Liu Jingan chuckled and said, "I was listening to the Great Compassion Mantra, but this song is truly beautiful, and it cleanses the heart; it is an exceptional song indeed"

Finally, Liu Jin felt the rope around his neck loosen, and he fell to the ground

The ghost bride glared: "Little cow's nose, this is not me breaking my promise; this brat is deliberately provoking me, taking advantage of me too much."

"I knew you would ask this, and it's fine to talk about it. Within the circle, this is not a secret." The old man spoke calmly and continued, "This hanging ghost is named Yan Xueqin, who died one hundred thirty-three years ago. She was a woman with an extremely yin fate. On the night she was hanged, she transformed into a vengeful spirit, killing over one hundred people from the family that wronged her, leaving no one alive. Less than ten years later, she gained the power of a ghost king, and the number of people who died at her hands is at least in the hundreds. Her cruelty and viciousness made the masters within the circle change color at the mention of her name, and no one dared to provoke her."

Upon arriving at a small shop, a middle-aged man hurriedly came out and called out: "Oh, Master Mao, good evening to you."

I thought you called so many hanging ghosts here for what, turns out it was to scare me? Liu Jin pouted, then twisted her body and said: "Look, we are different, I can still move, hee hee hee, I can still stick out my tongue, and I can still love you.

After waiting for a moment, Liu Jindao said: "Is this it?"

Yan Xueqin, are you out of your mind? You say, are you out of your mind? The old man waved his fan, pointing at the ghost bride, with a fierce expression, exuding an air of authority.

Liu Jin couldn't help but gasp in shock

"No, please help me, sir. I just came over to listen to music, and it wants to kill me. I am wronged." Liu Jin hurriedly pleaded for help, looking very frightened.

Such a wonderful opportunity to understand the mysterious world is indeed a gift from heaven

I did not see it coming, you young one, how could you possibly have any connection with Master Zhi Liao? How did you manage to get involved with him?

Ghost Bride : `` ... ... ''

This pretense of power, indeed, is the foremost principle of deception throughout the ages

Over there, someone is working, while Liu Jin and the old man are seated at a small table by the roadside

Liu Jinding gazed at the ghost bride

Stop

"Senior, I am not trying to show off or deceive anyone; I just suddenly saw a female ghost and felt pity for her, wanting to help her find peace." Liu Jin explained with a smile

Ghost Bride : `` ... ... ''

Liu Jin curiously asked, "Senior, what is the origin of this hanging ghost? Why does it sound so mysterious?"

You probably haven't seen me dive; dare to compete with me, and I won't hesitate to make you swell up.

Liu Jin: "... ..."

The old gentleman looked towards Liu Jin again

It is likely that this is done out of respect for that master cicada; otherwise, not only would there be no chance for a proper conversation, but one would probably also face a beating

Alright, come with me. At such a young age, you are not learning well and are only causing trouble for others. Whose disciple are you?" The old man asked while walking with his hands behind his back

Liu Jindao: "I cannot do it, but I collaborated with a master. I brought it over, and he is responsible for the spiritual elevation."

Ah, you still know how to be ambitious and have some insight. Fine, since I have some free time today, let this be a way to mentor the younger generation. Follow me.

Wow, is there really such a powerful ghost?

As one approaches, it becomes visible that this is an elderly man, with snow-white hair and a weathered face, dressed in a white undershirt, and holding a banana leaf fan in his hand

Liu Jindao: "Mingshan Zen Hidden Temple, Master Zhiliao."

The old man scoffed: "Enough, enough, enough, stop with the nonsense, I don't want to hear your drivel. For the sake of Master Zhi Liao, I won't hold it against you this time, but don't come here again in the future. Yan Xueqin is not someone you can provoke, and what's more, you've already crossed her taboo. It's a miracle you haven't met your end yet"

Following that

Liu Jin smiled and said, "Let's talk about this hanging ghost, I'm quite curious."

The ghostly bride gritted her teeth and said: "Why don't you ask him what song he listens to"

"You are given a bit of face, so just accept it. Stop being so troublesome every day. It's just a song, not like a real monk is reciting in front of you. What are you making a fuss about? Hurry up and let the person down." The old man scolded irritably.

"Hehe, you little brat, there is not a trace of fear on your face. Are you sure you really want to thank me?" The old man glanced at Liu Jin and snorted.
