Master Lingkong smiled and said, "You are right. Doing good to others means doing good to yourself. I understand!!"
The three of them opened the Ghost Chronicles together, which recorded some rules of the underworld and strange things about ghosts. There was no record of Gu Kun's situation.
After a long time of work, it was all in vain.
Master Lingkong said: "If you want to solve the mystery of Gu Kun, you should probably go to his home first. Maybe you will find something."
Xia Yuanqiu's eyes lit up and he smiled: "Yes, why didn't I think of that? If I go to Gu Kun's house, wouldn't everything be clear?"
Master Lingkong stayed in Fuyuan Temple to receive pilgrims who asked for a child. He could not leave Fuyuan Temple empty all day long, causing the hopeful pilgrims to return disappointed again and again.
Xia Yuanqiu went to Gu Kun's home and took Zhu Yan directly to the once magnificent ancient house.
The majestic scene of the ancient house has gone forever, but within a few months, the gorgeous old house has become dilapidated, with cobwebs everywhere, thick accumulation of dust, and the yard is full of weeds. It looked like it had been uninhabited for a long time.
The two entered the inner house, and a foul smell came out of the rows of bedrooms.
Zhu Yan had been fighting on the battlefield for more than ten years and had seen mountains of corpses. He was all too familiar with this stench.
Xia Yuanqiu had also served as a prisoner. How could she not smell this kind of corpse odor
Zhu Yan walked straight to a bedroom door and kicked open the closed door.
Even though he had seen bloody and cruel scenes, he was still horrified by the scene before him.
A rotten corpse was hung on the beam, covered with disgusting maggots. Water dripped from the rotten corpse. Rats and ants were rampant in the room, eating away the rotten flesh bit by bit.
The facial contour of the rotten corpse can no longer be seen, but the wealth of this person can be seen from his clothing.
"Is it Gu Kun?" Zhu Yan asked.
Xia Yuanqiu frowned, took a handkerchief and covered his lips and nose, and nodded slightly: "It's him."
Zhu Yan said: "This man looks like he hanged himself, but if you look closely, his death is by no means simple. Look at his hands and feet."
Gu Kun crossed his hands on his chest and crossed his legs, as if sitting cross-legged. For a hanged person, this posture is really strange and illogical. A hanged person would never be hanging. This is the posture he used when he died.
Unless he was already dead before he was hung up. After dying in this strange posture, his body became stiff and then he was hung up again.
Of course, there is another possibility.
She still remembered that Han Niang had told her that if someone had a deep grudge and posed in a special posture when he died, his ghost would linger after his death.
But if Gu Kun wants to achieve this kind of death, it is obvious that he cannot do it alone. Who is helping him
Zhu Yan said: "Han Niang said at the beginning that the evil ghost and evil spirit cannot leave its body. It needs the accumulated resentment in the body to survive. Otherwise, the power of the evil ghost will be greatly weakened until its soul is gone."
In other words, as long as the rotting corpse in front of him is disposed of, Gu Kun, who is doing evil everywhere, will lose his original power, and his ghost body will gradually disintegrate until it is completely destroyed.
The best way to destroy the Infernal Corpse is undoubtedly to use fire. In the face of the flames, all evil will eventually turn into nothingness.
Just as the two were preparing to take action, a strong wind suddenly blew up behind them. The strong wind swept up the dead leaves and dust in the courtyard, blinding them.
