No matter what methods she used to beg Master Hong, Master Hong was determined to use the child in her womb to save his eldest son.

At this point, Shujun couldn't help but cry, "Both of them are his children, why is he so biased!? I must use my son's life in exchange for his son! "

I silently shed tears as I watched. As expected, it was the same as my guess. Old Master Hong really wanted to use this trick to deceive the Ghost Infant in order to save Hong Haibin's life.

Shujun said that Master Hong had someone put sleeping pills in her food, and while she was asleep, he let that Taoist extract the soul of the child in her womb. Master Hong was originally afraid that the child's soul would return, so he hardened his heart and told the Taoist to directly scatter the soul of his youngest son, leaving his body for his eldest son to use.

Fortunately, the Daoist Priest had some conscience and said that he had already helped Master Hong extract the soul of the child in Lord Su's stomach. Fortunately, the Daoist Priest had some conscience and said that he had helped Master Hong extract the soul of the child in Lord Su's stomach.

Old Master Hong offered a very high price, but the Taoist was still unwilling. Thus, Old Master Hong had no choice but to send the Taoist off. Later on, he also sent someone to find Daoist Su.

After the child's soul was extracted, Patriarch Hong didn't have the ability to scatter the child's soul, so he left the child's soul behind the Hong family and buried it with Susu's child so that he could use the ghost's hand to scatter the child's soul.

However, Shujun had secretly followed Master Hong and found out that the child's soul was here. While Master Hong was not on guard, she had brought the child's soul back and hid it in the dry well in their backyard.

Shujun took out a gourd. There was even a talisman engraved on the gourd, filling it up with cinnabar.

Shujun said that the child's soul had originally been in that gourd. She had secretly released her child and placed it in a dry well, not daring to let Master Hong know. That was why she would wait until late at night to take advantage of Master Hong's sleeping time before she dared to secretly look at the child.

I just didn't expect to meet us here tonight.

I also looked towards Dao Elder Su. It was obvious that the red ropes on the top of our heads were the arrays set up by him in the backyard. I was curious as to how he knew that Shujun would come here at night.

"Masters, I beg of you, please save my child! Can you put my child's soul back in place! As long as you can save my child, you can make me do whatever you want me to do! " Shujun kneeled on the ground again and kept kowtowing to Daoist Su and me.

I helped him up. "Dao leader …"

His soul was forcibly extracted by someone. The reason that the daoist sealed his soul inside the gourd was to protect the child's soul. Unfortunately, Shujun was afraid that the ghost baby would kill her child, so she released the child's soul from the gourd.

However, after the release of the soul, he had lost his protective barrier. These days, he had become weaker and weaker. In this situation, he clearly couldn't return to his original body.

Don't worry, I'll think of a way for your child, but his soul is already very weak. It's best he put his soul into the gourd.

I looked at Dao Lord Su in surprise. The meaning of his words was that he had a way to make Shujun's child's soul return to her body.

But looking at how weak that child's soul is, I'm afraid that at dawn tomorrow, his soul would have already scattered. How could it possibly return to his body?

However, Shujun actually believed Dao Friend Su's words. She quickly picked up the gourd and begged Dao Friend Su to store her child's soul inside.

He then used a magic technique to retrieve the child's soul, and then gave the gourd to Matriarch He, telling her to keep it safe so that Master Hong would not find out. If Master Hong knew that we were helping Shujun, it might not be easy for everyone to do the same thing.

Shujun quickly nodded her head and carefully hugged the gourd to her chest.

After that, Dao Lord Su got up and told Shujun to go back first, saying that we had already stayed here for too long, and if we stayed in the backyard any longer, we might be discovered by others.

Shujun quickly thanked him and ran off, hugging her gourd.

As for Dao Elder Su, he sighed and began to collect the red ropes and bronze bells that he had previously set up the formation.

I asked him from the side, "Daoist leader, the child of Lord Su clearly can't hold on any longer. Judging from the situation, it's impossible for her soul to return to her body. But you …"

"I lied to her."

"..."

He glanced in the direction Shujun had left and said to me, "But if we tell her the truth, that she might do something to avenge her children, this Hong family is already in chaos. The dead have passed away, so let's spare the suffering of those who are still alive."

I also sighed. Although Daoist Priest Su's words were reasonable, I still felt that this was unfair to Shujun.

I tightly gripped Sujun's handkerchief in my hand as I complained, "This Old Master Hong is too biased. How can he live for his eldest son? He only wants his younger son to go and take his life."

Daoist Priest Su silently took the red ropes. After a long while, he said, "The human heart is complicated."

"..."

By the time we returned to our room, it was already two in the morning. I was sitting on the edge of my bed, absent-minded. Just now, in the backyard, Taoist Su told me that the reason he knew that Shujun would be in the backyard tonight was because during the day, Master Hong and he were in the study chatting secretly.

Old Master Hong had said that he had asked Daoist Su to come over to deal with the matter. It was just that on the surface, he had actually invited Daoist Su to deal with the Ghost Infant.

Hong Haibin's soul was hidden inside the Guanyin Image. Master Hong had carefully kept the Guanyin Image in a brocade box which was locked in the cabinet of his desk.

I asked you if you saw Hong Haibin's soul.

He was also told that he was being watched by the Ghost Soul. Before his soul left his body, the Ghost Soul was always by his side. No matter what he did, he would be able to see the Ghost Soul.

After that, he became ill until his soul was extracted. At that time, he was completely tortured by the ghost soul, but fortunately, he hid in the image. Even though the ghost soul had great abilities, it didn't dare to approach the image, allowing his soul to live to this day.

Old Master Hong said that although Hong Haibin's body had no soul, his five senses were sealed by a special secret technique. Only in a similar state to the Fasting State, could he survive until now.

The biggest problem now was that the ghost baby had yet to leave and had been secretly watching Hong Haibin. As long as Hong Haibin's soul came out of the image and returned to his body, Hong Haibin would lose his soul at any time.
