Chapter 3: The Peach Talisman Displays Its Divine Power

This child's urine is indeed effective

The Taoist cooperated as well, remaining completely still while I finished pressing him, and then said: "So, do you believe I am human now?"

I immediately bent down, took the peach wood talisman, and struck it against the claw, resulting in a muffled bang; the claw also exploded.

The body of the hanging ghost twisted into a bizarre shape, resembling a twisted doughnut, reaching out with a remaining claw to grasp my ankle

The hanged female ghost has gone berserk! With a furious roar, she lunges at me

Satisfied, satisfied! I rushed forward, pinned down the hanging ghost, and struck it with the peach wood talisman.

This truly is a case of surviving great adversity, which must lead to future blessings

Looking at the size of the briefcase and weighing its heft, there must be at least four to five hundred thousand inside!

In that moment, I could not help but be filled with tears.

This person is not merely here to talk to us about rules, but rather has a definite purpose in mind

The ground was covered with the fluids of corpses, and several large, black rats that had been gnawing on the bodies were startled and quickly scurried into the corner of the storage room

I quickly picked up my phone to take a picture, and only then did I see clearly that the shadow was actually a Taoist priest

The Taoist priest coughed and said: "This evil spirit is rather troublesome, and I am currently lacking the necessary tools. Therefore, I left a mark and went back to retrieve my equipment, intending to return quickly. I never expected that you would act first. I must ask you, young brother, did your elders in the sect teach you any rules? Acting so recklessly could lead to serious consequences."

I was already so scared that I was about to wet my pants, and now I have such a bright and legitimate opportunity to relieve myself, it was an incredibly refreshing experience, I urinated so far and so much that I drenched that female ghost hanging from the ceiling from head to toe

The package was sticky all over with decayed fragments of meat and pus

As I followed the hanged ghost into the storage room, a foul odor assaulted my senses. Upon descending inside and illuminating the area with my phone's light, I couldn't help but be startled.

At that moment, my hair stood on end, and I was covered in goosebumps. Without any hesitation, I swung my fist and turned around to throw a punch.

On the floor of the storage room lay four or five corpses in disarray, all mutilated and in a state of decay, covered with writhing white maggots

As soon as I finished speaking, I suddenly heard a voice behind me say, "Wait a moment, don't kill it!"

The buns are filled with stacks of hundred-yuan bills

With a sharp crack, followed by a cry of "ouch"

Three golden characters immediately sprang to mind

It crawled back while dragging that briefcase, presenting it to me in a flattering manner, "I kindly ask the master to inspect it."

I am still filled with anger and do not wish to simply dispose of it. I took the peach wood talisman, pressed it against its head, and began to punch it vigorously, cursing as I went, "You are fierce, aren't you? You are ruthless, aren't you! Still trying to play tricks on me, still wanting to dig into my heart and consume it. Go ahead, dig! Go ahead, eat!"

The hanging ghost let out a chilling cry, raising its claw to stab into my chest.

The Taoist indeed said: "According to the rules, since I marked it first, even if the evil spirit is captured by you, it and its treasure should belong to me..."

I shouted angrily: "Spare me? When you were just about to kill me, why didn't you think about sparing my life? I will destroy you now!" I raised the peach wood piece and was about to strike it.

There is a small door there, and pushing it open reveals a staircase

This is a peach wood amulet that I made by hand, which can ward off evil spirits. If you encounter any strange occurrences on your way back, you can take out the wooden tablet, and I assure you it will be effective

Devour you, devour your heart

I forgot to mention my pants

I believed it, I believed it. Although I said this, I still did not let my guard down

With one hand dragging the hanging evil spirit and the other hand holding a peach wood talisman, I walked over and pressed it against the Taoist's forehead

Struck it rich

At the moment of straining to urinate, the hanging female ghost across suddenly let out a piercing and mournful scream

He said so much, but I took the rest as nonsense and didn't take it to heart. I only understood one thing, which raised some doubts: "Are you saying this ghost was reserved by you? Is there such a thing? Since you discovered this ghost, why didn't you catch it on the spot? What is this reservation about? Are you treating it like Taobao?"

I squeezed hard, hoping to urinate a little more, but unfortunately, I simply could not produce any more urine

I instinctively swallowed and asked, "Are these all the people you have killed?" As soon as the words left my mouth, I realized that my voice had become uncharacteristically hoarse.

I was filled with terror and wanted to block it, but suddenly my hands would not obey me, unable to lift even a little, and I could only watch helplessly as that claw descended, letting out a cry of despair.

Not a ghost

The hanged female ghost remained completely still, her entire body trembling slightly

"You, a dead ghost, still want to start anew?" I glared at it with disdain, but thinking of what it said, my heart warmed, and I replied, "Lead the way."

I couldn't help but laugh heartily at the sky

However, that claw seemed as unyielding as cast iron, no matter how hard I tried, I could not break free. It firmly grasped my little brother and dragged me back.

I could not help but feel great joy

If it weren't for Feng Tian's amulet, I would probably have become a part of the corpses here by now

The ghost hanging from the noose cried out: "Master, I realize my mistake and am willing to follow the rules and hand over the treasure to redeem my life!"

I simply took decisive action, mounting the hanged ghost without hesitation, pressing a peach wood talisman against the back of its head. Immediately, a hissing sound erupted, akin to a red-hot iron being pressed onto a block of ice, releasing a large volume of white vapor, and a significant hole was visibly pressed into the back of the hanged ghost's head

In this desolate mountain wilderness, amidst the malevolent spirits that haunt this sinister abode, the sudden appearance of an individual, even if they are alive, is undoubtedly suspicious and warrants caution

It turned out to be an underground storage room

Little did I expect, as those claws barely touched my chest, an anomaly suddenly arose

This sound is so close, it is practically resonating right against my back

He appeared to be in his forties or fifties, wearing a gray robe, adorned with a yellow Taoist crown, and carrying a cloth bag on his back. He was holding his stomach with one hand and covering his nose with the other, continuously exclaiming in distress.

The ghost hanging from the noose cried out: "In the past, I have caused the deaths of several passersby, and they all carried some wealth with them. According to the rules, all of this belongs to you, Master. I only ask that you spare me this time and grant me another chance to be reborn as a human."

The hanged ghost muttered remorsefully while crawling among the corpses, pulling out a bulging briefcase from beneath a decaying body.

However, with this arch of my back, I inadvertently exposed the vital point in front of me, and my little brother was immediately seized by a cold claw, which dragged him back.

I let out a cry and crawled forward with a thrust of my hips

A burst of yellowish light suddenly emanated from my chest

I want to kill you! I want to eat your heart!

A shadow keeps retreating

However, I dare not take it lightly, as I have often heard that these spirits are ever-changing and most adept at disguise. Who can guarantee that this entity is not a companion of the hanged ghost come to rescue it

The hanging ghost dragged its broken body forward, while I followed behind it, holding a peach wood talisman.

The hanging ghost chuckled dryly a couple of times and then asked, "Master, do you find this satisfactory?"

I forced myself to suppress my nausea, carefully unzipped it and took a look inside, instinctively holding my breath.

It truly looks like a living person

The sound was so loud and piercing that the windows all around shattered in response, sending shards of glass flying through the air as if a strange hailstorm had descended.

Before I could even get up, I felt a chill on my backside, as a cold claw pressed down, sending a sharp pain through me

The shadow retreated several meters, covering the spot where it had been kicked, and sat down on the ground with a thud, shouting: "Stop hitting me, I am a human, not a ghost!"

The long black hair, wet and hanging down without a breeze, dripped with beads of liquid. Her pale face appeared as if it had just been washed, glistening with moisture. The white dress she wore was completely soaked, clinging tightly to her body. Most notably, even the tongue she had extended outside was dripping with liquid.

This evil spirit is simply too despicable, it must not be spared!

It turns out she did not give me a good person card, but rather saw that I was in trouble and specially gave me a talisman to save my life

As soon as I heard this, I quickly stopped and exclaimed, "What do you mean by treasure?"

The hanged ghost, with a severed arm protecting its head, cried out: "No, please, Mage, no! Have mercy, Mage!"

The claws of the hanging ghost were embedded in the yellow light, producing a muffled bang, and the entire claw unexpectedly shattered into pieces on the spot

I truly cannot see that this little girl is actually a master!

This thing is really heavy, it feels as if several hundred pounds of sacks are pressing down on me, making me roll my eyes and unable to catch my breath.

However, it is a small matter of ignorance, driven by the evil thoughts in the heart to commit wrongful acts. Now awakened by the master, I will never dare to do evil again

I do not know what that thing is either, but since the fist is effective, why hesitate? I followed up with a kick, striking right at the center of that shadow.

I narrowly escaped death, still shaken, and instinctively reached for my chest. I felt something square and solid; upon picking it up, I was astonished to find it was the tangible Good Person Card that Feng Tian had given me

It seems that not only did Yan shoot, but he also accidentally had a small outburst.

Upon hearing this, the Taoist immediately straightened his back and became spirited, saying, "Young brother, it's not that I, as a senior, want to criticize you. You are new to the field and not yet familiar with the techniques, yet you choose to practice on such a malevolent spirit. Isn't that courting death? Of course, that's not the main issue. The important thing is that you must adhere to the rules. Didn't you see the mark I made at the entrance? I have already reserved this malevolent spirit. How could you just barge in and take action? This is completely against the rules. Even if your master's elders were to come out, it would still be unreasonable!"

The Taoist stood up, adjusted his clothing, and took out a tissue to wipe the nosebleed that I had just caused him. Only then did he say: "Brother, you must be new to this profession."

Since this amulet is effective, I immediately felt a surge of courage. Gripping the amulet tightly, I looked ahead and saw that the hanged ghost was actually crawling on the ground, not crawling towards me, but rather moving away, as if trying to escape.

The hanging ghost has been climbing to the back of the stairs

Little brother really hurts, I don't know if it will be able to stand up again in the future

At this moment, I could not help but feel a wave of fear.

This question left me completely baffled, and I replied ambiguously, "Yes, how did you figure it out?"

I scoffed: "I didn't see any markings. No matter how you put it, this evil spirit has been captured by me, so what do you want to do?"

My buttocks are really sore, and I don't even know how many holes I've been poked with

The hanging ghost let out a cry, tumbling down from my body and crashing heavily to the ground

This time, the ghost was surprisingly obedient. It climbed out of the classroom and into the corridor in one breath. I followed behind and noticed that the corridor had returned to normal, allowing a clear view of the main hall, the staircase, and the shattered mirror not far away.

"When did I ever agree to spare you?" I sneered, "You have caused so many deaths and still wish to live? What a delusion! Today, I shall punish you on behalf of the moon. Die!"

The hanged ghost screamed, twisting its body in an attempt to escape

I could not help but scream, covering my brother with both hands, desperately trying to pry away that ghostly claw.

The hanged ghost struggled and cried out: "Mage, you said you would spare me this once, you cannot go back on your word!"

I stood up from the hanged ghost and first adjusted my pants

The urine of a young boy is not effective

This good person card is still glowing with a faint yellow light, clearly not an ordinary item

"Master, spare me!" the ghost cried out, "Master, spare me, I am but a small one who does not recognize the great mountain. I beg you, Master, to forgive me this time."

Just now, she wanted to kill me; how could I let her escape? With a fierce laugh, I took a step forward, raised my foot to step on the back of the hanged ghost, and laughed heartily to the sky, "You dare to offend me and still think you can escape?"

Feng Tian's sweet and soft voice seemed to echo in my ears once again

I was so frightened that I turned and ran; as I turned and took a step, I fell flat on my face in a complete sprawl.

I screamed incessantly, rolling on the ground, turning from lying face down to lying on my back. Just as I was struggling, I felt a weight on my chest; the ghost of the hanged woman had actually mounted me.
