Chapter 7: Remnant Souls

Old Master Zhang then got up from the ground and asked, "What... what is the reason for this?"

Old Master Zhang hurriedly said: "How could that be! You just go with peace of mind. I will take good care of your parents."

Upon hearing this, Master Zhang said: "So it turns out that Master Wang had this intention. However, there were also female members of my family present at that time, so why..."

Wang Daxian explained: "This fragment of a soul is merely one of the seven souls and three spirits that existed before the orchid's birth. If we wish for her to enter the cycle of reincarnation soon, all three souls and seven spirits must be present. Currently, the other three souls and six spirits are certainly still within her physical body. Therefore, what we need to do now is to go to the graveyard to summon the rest of her fragmented souls, so that they can reunite with this one spirit, allowing her to reincarnate."

The soul of the orchid stared intently at Wang Yidu before her, a hint of excitement unexpectedly showing in her eyes. Wang Yidu gave her a slight nod, then raised the wild grass in his hand above her head and gave it a gentle shake, causing the green light to sprinkle down from the tip of the grass onto the soul of the orchid.

Orchid nodded slightly, then turned her gaze to Old Master Zhang and said softly: "Old Master Zhang, Orchid understands that you did not mean to force me. It is fortunate that a grave mistake was nearly made; I hope you will not hold it against me"

Wang Yi nodded and graciously accepted Orchid's kneeling. After she finished her worship, he said: "Orchid, today as you worship me, it can be considered that we have formed a bond. When you are reincarnated, we shall surely meet again. Although you may not remember me then, if you are in need, I will certainly do my utmost to assist you. Now that your three souls and seven spirits are complete, take this opportunity to hasten your reincarnation."

Upon seeing this, Wang Yidu hurriedly opened the cloth bag containing the remnants of the orchid's soul, casually broke off a wild grass, and inserted it into the bag. It seemed he muttered a few words, and when he pulled the wild grass out of the bag, the tip of the grass surprisingly glimmered with a faint green light. Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, Wang Yidu dragged the glowing grass as if it were an object, walking towards the orchid's spirit standing by the grave. Although everyone knew that Master Wang had genuine skills, they could not help but feel a sense of admiration for his courage, as he approached the ghost so closely without changing his expression or skipping a heartbeat.

At this moment, Orchid first slightly closed her eyes, seemingly adapting to her own changes. After a short while, she opened her eyes and spoke: "Master Wang, Orchid has suffered greatly. After death, I committed such foolish acts. Fortunately, with your guidance, I was able to repent in time and avoid making a grave mistake... Please accept my bow!" After saying this, she knelt down and bowed three times to Wang.

Thank you, Master Zhang, for still thinking of Orchid's parents. In this life, Orchid has no way to repay you, and can only wait for the next life to serve you as a cow or a horse in gratitude. " After saying this, Orchid bowed to Master Zhang, ... and finally said: "Orchid is leaving ..." Her voice was mixed with sorrow and helplessness ... ...

Suddenly, everyone noticed that the shadowy figure of the orchid seemed to have taken on a more tangible form, appearing much more vivid than before, almost like a living person. The pale, bluish face now bore a hint of color, no longer so unsettling.

The crowd stood at the back, not daring to breathe, staring at the burning paper talisman and the blue light emanating from the books. After a short while, a wisp of blue smoke began to rise from the grave. With this wisp of smoke, a faint figure appeared, resembling that of an orchid.

Looking at the terrified crowd, Master Wang coughed twice and said: "This matter should not have been witnessed by you, but I know that most of you were present when Orchid took her own life that day. Given the commotion caused, you are likely all somewhat frightened. If you do not see this with your own eyes, it may leave a hidden danger for the future."

The graveyard is located not far from the village, in the woods. In just half an hour, everyone arrived at the Orchid Grave. However, this grave, which is only a few months old, has already suffered significant damage; not only has half of it collapsed, but it has also been flooded. Seeing this situation, Old Master Zhang thought to himself: "No wonder Orchid came to her mother in a dream, saying the house was leaking..."

After the orchid spoke, a wisp of blue smoke emerged from beneath its feet, and its figure once again became blurred, until it turned transparent and vanished from the sight of the crowd

Except for Wang Daxian, the others seemed to have experienced a life-and-death ordeal, their bodies completely limp. However, it must be said that dealing face-to-face with ghosts is enough to unsettle anyone.

Old Master Zhang hurriedly nodded and called the eight strong men outside to the front of the door, instructing them to carry the shovels together to the cemetery

After Master Wang sealed the mouth of the cloth bag, he finally let out a long sigh and said, "Master Zhang, summon those servants and bring shovels with you to the Orchid Grave!"

Wang Yi walked to the Orchid Grave, took out three sticks of guiding incense, and as he held the incense, his hand trembled slightly, causing the guiding incense to ignite. He inserted the incense into the ground, muttering some strange incantations, and then took out a paper talisman and burned it.
