Liaozhai Great Sage

Chapter 178
As soon as Li Xiuyuan moved the baby's corpse on the beam, a dark wind blew up in the dark shop, and two gusts of wind blew from the male and female corpses, heading straight towards him.

He felt the dark wind in the house, and he could immediately guess that it must be the obsession of the baby's parents after death, and the ghost lingered here.

Unjust souls who died in vain will enter the underworld if they have no obsessions. If they have strong obsessions, they will stay in the world if their resentment persists.

And such unjust souls need ghost messengers and ghost soldiers to catch them.

If it is in a peaceful and prosperous age, within seven days, even before the person is about to die, there will be ghost soldiers, ready to seduce the soul, pick up the ghost, and prevent the ghost from causing trouble.

But right now, this world is not like a peaceful and prosperous world, with natural disasters and man-made disasters constantly. In this situation, naturally there will be no such dedicated soldiers and ghosts.

Li Xiuyuan felt two dark winds blowing towards him, but he hadn't touched his body yet. The dark wind seemed to hit an indestructible wall, and it was smashed into pieces in an instant, turning into several dark winds and scattered in all directions. Entrenched in the house, no longer as strong as before.

But the Lis and his wife are blinded now, but they don't know the current situation, and they can't recognize him.

The shattered Yin wind gathered together again, turning into a gust and rushing towards Li Xiuyuan again.

"Hoo~!"

A gust of cold wind blew by, and it completely collapsed without getting close to Li Xiuyuan. This time, the dark wind disappeared and did not condense again.

Even though the new born wronged soul, even with such deep obsession, bumped into Li Xiuyuan twice, the damage suffered was serious enough to make the two ghosts fly apart.

Li Xiuyuan's eyes moved slightly at this moment, looking at the cold baby's corpse in his hand, he fell silent for a moment.

He didn't want to deal with the Li couple, but the obsession of the Li couple drove them to pounce on him, and he was not close to gods and ghosts. Even if he had a jade belt to block his breath, once he got close to him, he would still be hurt. So in the situation just now, the Li couple rushed over like moths to a flame.

Now Li and his wife are not even qualified to be ghosts.

"Today, I, Li Xiuyuan, were reckless. I couldn't even make you ghosts, but you are also at fault for this. You are already dead. You are not humans, but ghosts. Although you are eager to protect your son, you should be a ghost if you are a ghost. Go to the underworld instead of staying here to prevent the people in the city from carrying the corpses, compared to the lives of the living people, you two ghosts are really insignificant."

Li Xiuyuan finished speaking and said: "As a repayment, I will personally choose a family for your son Zhang Yingjie to be reincarnated in, to ensure that he will be rich and prosperous in the next life."

He could feel that the baby's soul was still in the corpse and hadn't left.

Zhang Yingjie was too young before his death, he had no obsession, only the instinct of the body, so the sound of crying came from the room.

After speaking, he wrapped Zhang Yingjie's body and strode away.

No sadness, no regrets.

He has seen too much misery and death, and now, the accidental disappearance of the two ghosts of the Li family is just a small part of all the tragedies.

"Boss, what's the matter, are you okay?"

When Li Xiuyuan came out, the steward and the men who worked nearby greeted him immediately.

Li Xiuyuan said: "There are no ghosts inside, only two corpses, a couple. Take them away, dig a separate pit outside the city, and bury them together."

"Yes, Master."

Hearing that there was no ghost inside, the people nearby breathed a sigh of relief, and then they boldly walked in, and then began to carry the corpses inside.

After giving some orders, Li Xiuyuan took Zhang Yingjie's body back to the City God's Temple.

"Where are the Yin soldiers?" He shouted at the City God Hall in the temple.

"Eldest young master, the younger one is here."

A blue-faced Yin soldier and a black-faced Yin soldier came out of the darkness immediately, and saluted respectfully.

Li Xiuyuan put Zhang Yingjie's body on the ground: "Help me get the baby's soul out."

He has a special status and cannot touch ghosts. If he touches them, he will cause very serious damage to the ghosts.

"Yes, young master."

Hearing that it was so easy, the blue-faced Yin soldier immediately came out, grabbed the wrapped baby's body on the ground, and caught a white and fat baby ghost by him.

"Wow! Wow! Wow!" Zhang Yingjie was crying loudly at the moment, as if he didn't like being held by this dark soldier.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Take care of him for a few days, if something goes wrong, I'll ask you guys."

"Yes, Eldest Young Master, but Eldest Young Master, this baby's soul should be sent to the underworld. It will easily collapse in the underworld, and it is not as good as an ordinary wronged soul." Said the blue-faced Yin soldier.

"I have my plan, it's enough for you to do your thing well."

After Li Xiuyuan finished speaking, he asked, "By the way, how are you doing with the things I ordered you a few days ago?"

The black-faced Yin soldiers next to him cupped their hands and said, "The two younger brothers are fortunate to have saved their lives, and have subdued the other Yin soldiers and ghost messengers in the Town God's Temple."

"How many ghost soldiers are there in total, and how many ghost soldiers are there in total?" Li Xiuyuan asked.

The black-faced Yin soldiers replied: "Currently, the younger two have 31 Yin soldiers and [-] ghost servants, and some Yin soldiers and ghost servants ran away when they saw that the city god was gone, and went to other places. The City God has gone."

"The tree falls and the monkeys scatter, so don't bother with those who escape."

Li Xiuyuan said: "From today onwards, you will start to seduce the souls and capture all the ghosts in the city, not only inside the city, but also outside the city. I want not a single ghost left in the city today, don't tell me you can't do it." ?”

Tomorrow is the first seven days, and he doesn't want the city to be filled with grievances and panic, causing turmoil in the city that has finally settled down.

Hearing the words, the expressions of the two Yin soldiers changed slightly, and then they gritted their teeth and said, "Don't worry, Eldest Young Master, within one night, I promise to catch all the ghosts in the city."

"Very good. In addition, I have guard Tieshan and other nineteen ghosts in Guobei County. You send someone to Guobei County to check with Tieshan, report my safety, and ask about the situation in Guobei County. , if there is nothing wrong with Guobei County, let Tieshan and the others come here to assist you in arresting innocent souls."

Li Xiuyuan said again: "By the way, send a few more ghost messengers to inspect the affected areas and report to me later."

"I understand." The two Yin soldiers immediately nodded in response.

Although the flood has subsided now, and the disaster relief in the city is on the right track, now Li Xiuyuan has to pay attention to the situation outside the city.

Guo Beicheng wasn't the only one affected by the disaster.

After ordering the two Yin soldiers, he ordered Zhang Yingjie's body to be buried outside the city and buried with the Li couple.

In a sense, it is a family reunion.

But Li Xiuyuan knew that the corpses were just buried together, but the soul was separated forever.

In the afternoon, people who had taken refuge outside the city began to return to Guobei City in large numbers, which made Li Xiuyuan's pressure suddenly intensified.

But the good news is that the guards he sent out before and the subordinates in the bodyguard company also came back.

In this way, more people can be used at hand, and some things can be safely handed over to the subordinates.

The people hired temporarily in the city are somewhat inconvenient.

At night, the victims went to rest early.

Even Zhu Yu, Wang Ping, Ning Caichen and other scholars also fell asleep early after a busy day.

But Li Xiuyuan climbed up the city wall alone, and after meditating for an hour, he became sober, and then stood on the city wall to watch everything that happened in the city.

At this moment, in the city, there is a dark wind, chains, and strange screams, as if there are ghosts crying in the city, and soldiers are running rampant.

These are the ghost soldiers in the city, and the ghost messengers are arresting the innocent souls and ghosts who died because of the flood.

However, ordinary people can't see anything unusual in the city at first glance, everything is very calm, only occasionally a few strange winds howl, with a foul smell, it seems that they want to fly out of the city .

But the strange thing is that the strange winds are only scattered in the city, and there is no cloudy wind blowing out of the city. Li Xiuyuan, standing on the city wall, watched all this, watching the ghosts, and the ghosts were arrested.

Today is the first seven days, and the spirits of the ghosts began to recover one after another. If they know that they are dead and have become ghosts, they will start to cause chaos in the city when they have new grievances and obsessions.

Therefore, the ghosts in the city must be captured today.

Although there are a lot of these ghosts, Yinbing and Guichai are good ghosts. It may not be possible to deal with powerful ghosts, but it is easy to deal with these new ghosts.

But I saw the chains around the waist of a Yin soldier flying out, as if extending infinitely, a chain bound more than a dozen innocent souls, and tied them tightly.

"The young master, the young one and others are desperately arresting them, but there are too many innocent souls, and there is no place to put them. The cells in the Town God's Temple are already full."

At this time, the blue-faced Yin soldier flew near the city wall, and gave a salute out of breath.

Evidently he had been busy all night and was exhausted.

"Then send them to hell."

Li Xiuyuan said: "The underworld is so big, can't you pretend to be these innocent souls?"

"Young master, you have to have a city to receive them if you send them to the underworld. Otherwise, if you just throw them into the underworld, I'm afraid that these innocent souls will be captured by some evil things in the underworld." The blue-faced Yin soldier said.

Li Xiuyuan's eyes moved: "There are still evil things in the underworld?"

"Eldest young master doesn't know that there is danger in the underworld, otherwise the former Hades would not have built a ghost city in the underworld." Said the blue-faced Yin soldier.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Then send them to the red-haired ghost king and let him receive these wronged souls."

"Red, the red-haired ghost king?"

The blue-faced Yin soldier was shocked: "Eldest young master, that's a very vicious ghost king, the little ones don't dare to go anywhere."

"A letter from me, you take it to the red-haired ghost king, he won't do anything to you."

After Li Xiuyuan finished speaking, he said again: "Don't worry, I am friends with him, and he will still give me this little face."

The blue-faced Yin soldier said with a weeping face: "Eldest young master, you should spare the young one. If the young one meets the red-haired ghost king, he will have to eat the young one alive. For this letter, the young master should find it." Give it to someone else."

After finishing speaking, he knelt down again, looking miserable, and kept kowtowing for mercy.

Obviously, he has a heartfelt fear of the red-haired ghost king.
