The ultimate rebirth of the female cannon fodder

Chapter 22 The Contest of Souls

It was only after she calmed down that Lu Wanqing felt a bit of fear, the ghost wanted to go down that night, but fortunately she didn't have the ability to do so as soon as her head got hot...

Sitting quietly on the bed, Lu Wanqing always felt restless. This feeling was very subtle. Thinking of the last time she felt this way, she found out that Chunhua had betrayed her and almost lost her virginity... This time...could it be related to that haunted house?
Thinking of this, Lu Wanqing sank her mind, and soon, her soul came out of her body, and her body relaxed.She suddenly felt that the whole village was full of yin, and flew out to take a look, only to see the ghost that tempted her last night was wandering in the village, as if looking for something.

Lu Wanqing knew that she was also in the state of a soul now, remembering that the stinky Taoist priest in the previous life took a whisk and a gavel to shake her away, so she rushed to the side of the other party and shouted: "Hey——"

The ghost was startled, and when the black shadow was about to dissipate, Lu Wanqing suddenly reached out and grabbed the opponent's life gate.This ghost is like a human being, it also has weaknesses, as long as it catches its main soul.

The ghost screamed in horror, Lu Wanqing naturally wouldn't be so easy to fool, this guy killed so many people, and now he wants to harm himself, how can he let him escape so easily?He shouted sharply: "Say, who are you? Why are you following me?"

The ghost immediately turned into a monster with horns and fangs.Lu Wanqing was so frightened that he almost lost his soul. Fortunately, he attacked first to force the opponent, otherwise it would be difficult to deal with now.

"You let me go, or I will kill you."

"If I let you go, you won't let my soul fly away?" Lu Wanqing would not be so stupid to let the tiger go back to the mountain, but she didn't know how to deal with ghosts. It seemed that this ghost had already cultivated well.If he continues to cultivate, I am afraid that the people in the nearby villages will be killed by him.Although he is not the kind of saint who is compassionate and saves the suffering, Lu Wanqing still wants to try to get rid of the scourge that endangers his own safety and can accumulate some evil virtues at the same time.

Lu Wanqing grabbed the opponent's life gate but didn't know how to kill the opponent, and the opponent seemed to have seen this too. Although he had the ability, he was controlled by others, and the two sides remained at loggerheads.

After all, Lu Wanqing had only practiced for a short time and didn't know how to use the energy of the soul economically. After a while, she felt that the soul was a little weak, and the ghost broke away just in time and ran away.Lu Wanqing's soul returned to her place in a flash, just as the sky was getting brighter.

Lu Wanqing sat on the bed for more than two hours before feeling a little bit of strength in her body, wondering why Ye Shi and the others didn't come to call her.

When I came to the yard outside, I found that the whole village was quiet, and my heart was not good. Could it be that the ghost came last night, and these people were all attacked by Yin Qi?Lu Wanqing's head was short-circuited for a moment, these people knew it was a haunted house, and they were afraid to avoid it, but she brought the ghost here, and she caused this disaster.Thinking of the confrontation with that ghost last night, although the other party has practiced for a long time and he has no way to win, escaping for his life should not be a problem.

It's daytime now, so I should be two points stronger.

Lu Wanqing went to wake up Mrs. Ye, but the other party had sunken eyes, pale face, and a sluggish expression, "Ma'am, go and wake up everyone in the village."

Although Ye is a village woman in the mountains, she is also a very courageous person. She also felt that something was wrong. Seeing Lu Wanqing's nervous look, she quickly leaned on the wall and went back to the backyard to call her two sons and father-in-law. stand up.

Chunsheng Qiusheng is a strong guy, the situation is a little better, go and wake everyone up.Lu Wanqing asked them to bring hoes, hammers, ropes and the like to the broken hut.

When Tu Lao heard that he was going there, he hesitated for a moment, then bypassed the mountain ridge and took a shortcut.Tu Lao was getting old and was attacked by Yin Qi again, so he couldn't walk for a short distance, Lu Wanqing asked those old and weak people to stay, and took a dozen young and middle-aged people to go.

After walking for an hour, the sun came out. Lu Wanqing ordered people to dig the well, and then he took a hoe and started working.

By noon, the well had been expanded to more than two meters, and the bottom of the well could be fully seen.

Chunsheng said, "Hey, there seems to be a secret passage down there."

Seeing that it was noon and there were so many people around, Lu Wanqing regained her composure, tied two thick hemp ropes around her waist, and asked someone to put herself down.The well is only five or six meters deep, and it reaches the bottom in a short while.Suddenly, a gust of dark wind hit, and Lu Wanqing calmed down.Sure enough, at the bottom of the well, I found a secret passage half the height of a person. I took out a torch and ignited it. I took a look inside and found a black box with a length of one foot inside.Lu Wanqing picked it up, and was about to be dragged up, when his feet loosened and he sank in. A few bones were exposed in the mud, and at the same time, a foul smell came...

Lu Wanqing almost screamed out, at this moment, the other foot also sank slowly, and at the same time there was a click sound.She finally knew why the well was so shallow, and the bottom of her feelings was filled with dead bodies. Thinking of this, a chill rose from her back, and Lu Wanqing yelled: "Pull me up quickly, quickly—"

Lu Wanqing lay on the ground, her legs and feet were like noodles, and it took a long time to recover.

The villagers basked in the sun for a while in the courtyard dam, and they seemed to be in better spirits.

Lu Wanqing took the black box under the sun and opened it... Suddenly, I felt a gust of wind blowing in the yard, and it returned to calm for a while.

Lu Wanqing asked everyone to fill up the well, and then returned to Shangliang Village with tools.

After returning to the village, everyone dispersed, and just like when they were woken up in the morning, they climbed into bed and continued to sleep, and did not wake up until the next morning.Both felt a little sore and backache, and only thought that they had a long sleep and had a long dream.

One of them said: "Hey, I had a dream last night, as if I went to a haunted house..."

"Me too... I always feel like I did something there, but I just can't remember."

"I also had a dream..."

At that time, Lu Wanqing asked these villagers to go to the haunted house. Their souls were damaged or incomplete, so their memories were not complete, and it was just a dream.And when she opened the box, those imprisoned souls returned to their masters.

Naturally, Lu Wanqing would not explain these mysterious things, and if she hadn't had the experience of being a ghost, she would not dare to let so many villagers go rashly.There was another thing that surprised the villagers. Goudan's eyes, which had always been stupid, became brighter.Although Goudan's soul has returned, it is already very weak due to being imprisoned for too long, and it may take several years to recover to be like a normal person.

Tu Lao felt that Lu Wanqing, a nobleman, had brought good fortune to the villagers, and respected her a little more.Lu Wanqing took the opportunity to ask, "Old Man Tu, how do I get from here to the provincial capital?"

"Here you can take a short cut and cross two mountain ridges. I will send you out tomorrow with Ran Chunsheng." Elder Tu happily replied.Chunsheng next to him looked at Lu Wanqing with a look of searching.Lu Wanqing thought clearly, thinking, could the other party remember what happened yesterday?
"Thank you, Old Man Tu."

Inside the box was an iron ring like a bracelet, with strange characters engraved on it, and she opened it once under the sunlight to release the bound soul inside, and the ghost who was seriously injured by herself would definitely be terrified. The soul of the sun was scattered and he dared not come out.As for the souls that are still in the physical body, they have the traction and support of the main body, and they are not so easy to dissipate.

Lu Wanqingbing didn't intend to explore the origin of the bracelet in the box here, she was afraid that something would pop out of it and hurt these ordinary villagers.

Early the next morning, Mrs. Ye got up and prepared dry food and water for Lu Wanqing. Lu Wanqing knew that life in the mountains was not easy, so she left another piece of silver.It's not that she doesn't want to keep more, but that there are only three pieces of silver left in her pocket, and there are some hollow silver hairpin jewelry, which are worth more than one tael of silver at most.I still don't know how far the road ahead is, and there is nowhere to go in life, so I have to plan and use it.

The leftover dry food and what Ye Shi made for her made a big package. Lu Wanqing slung it on her back and put the clothes on her shoulders.

Lu Wanqing came and left quietly, because of the doggy incident, the villagers still had a little more affection for this little girl who broke into the village rashly.When I left the village entrance in the morning, I met several villagers who greeted me warmly.Lu Wanqing looked back at this simple and united small village, and felt an indescribable peace and emotion in her heart. She had no regrets in her heart. The matter of the haunted house was finally resolved. The villagers may still be jealous, but they can't hurt them anymore.

All the way through the mountains and ridges, Chunsheng was originally a child in the mountains, he often went out hunting with his father, and went up and down the hills like walking on flat ground, and turned back to wait for Lu Wanqing within two steps.Unexpectedly, the latter was not slower than him, and kept following him three or four steps away.

When it was almost noon, the two walked up to a ridge. Chunsheng pointed to a gray road hidden in the forest in the distance and said to Lu Wanqing, "Miss Lu, that's the official road, go up for about 20 miles. It is Guanshan Station, and more than 50 miles away is Xufeng City. Along this road is Luci County."

Lu Wanqing wrote down one by one, thanked Chunsheng, and was about to leave, Chunsheng said: "The mountain road below is steeper, I'll take you down, anyway, you've already come here, it won't be a while."

Now that people have already talked about this, it seems a bit hypocritical for Lu Wanqing to push back.The two rested for a while and continued on the road. The mountain road was indeed very steep and slippery. Chunsheng offered to help Lu Wanqing carry the package several times but was declined by the other party.

Chunsheng said suddenly: "I also had a dream the night before yesterday..."

Lu Wanqing was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Oh, yes, I am too."

"I, I dreamed of you..."
