Hearing this, I couldn't help but be overjoyed. I didn't expect that hiding in the sewer would turn out to be a blessing in disguise, and I bumped into the secret of the jade refining descendants. At that moment, with a spell, the copper coin formation broke away from the dead woman's neck and flew back to stop between us.
"First, tell me where the Jade Refiner is, and then explain the whole story of why my father came looking for you."
“The jade refiner is in Guiming Mountain. Your father came to me just to find this clue…” The dead woman covered her neck with both hands and lay in the stinky water, gasping for breath.
I snorted coldly and asked her to tell me in detail, when did my dad come, and why did he chop her like this? Then I sat next to Shen Bing and helped her recover her vitality.
The dead woman was frightened by the torture of soul locking and told what happened at that time. Her name is Ruan Hongyu, and she is the lover of the antique shop owner. Speaking of this, I have to talk about it for a while. The antique shop owner is Ma Mingshi, who lost his wife at an early age. Because of the opposition of his children, he could not marry this young lover home, and could only have a tryst in secret.
Most of Ma Mingshi's antique business was broken jade. Everyone knows that although antique jade is valuable, once it is broken, it has no collection value. But Ma Mingshi has a jade refining expert to help him restore these broken jades to their original appearance, so there is no flaw at all. He made a lot of money from this. It was because Ma Mingshi was rich that Ruan Hongyu, who was in her twenties and in her prime, took a fancy to this old man.
It is said that this jade refining expert has been friends with the Ma family for generations, not just Ma Mingshi's generation. The Ma family has been an antique shop for hundreds of years, relying on the wealth made by the jade refining family. Ma Mingshi once took Ruan Hongyu to Guiming Mountain and handed over a batch of newly collected broken jades to the jade refiner, so she knew the whereabouts of this person.
Then I got back to the point and talked about my father's visit. That was six years ago, and he also came in winter. Hearing this, I was very confused. In the winter six years ago, my father had been dead for half a year. Why did his ghost come here to look for the whereabouts of the jade refiner
Ruan Hongyu said, my father was already dead at that time. When he came to find Ma Mingshi, someone secretly passed the message and the old man hid in Guiming Mountain in advance. My father would not have thought that she also knew the whereabouts of the jade refiner, but it was her bad luck at that time. It happened that her mother's birthday was on those days, and she had promised to give her a jade bracelet. It happened that Ma Mingshi was not there. She had secretly made a shop key and quietly went to the shop to get the jade bracelet.
As a result, she was discovered by Ma Mingshi's grandson who was watching the store. She was afraid that this matter would be known by Ma Mingshi's son. She was looked down upon by the Ma family, and if he caught her, she would never be able to fool around with Ma Mingshi again. So she had a bad idea and smashed the 14-year-old child to death with a golden Buddha.
My dad happened to see this scene. He hated evil just like me, so he stuffed her into the sewer without saying anything. This woman actually knew how to use jade to ward off evil spirits, and she wanted to use this thing to deal with my dad. At that time, a man ran out from behind my dad, took out a knife and split her head in two, and then chanted a spell to seal her soul in the sewer forever.
Damn, it turns out that it wasn't my dad who killed her, but someone else. So why did you, a dead woman, seek revenge on our Xi family? Later, I guessed that the person who killed her was Boss Gu, who came with my dad six years ago. At that time, Boss Gu was not a member of the Life and Death Sect. He was killed and made into a corpse general after my dad died, and was driven by the Life and Death Sect. However, his method was cruel enough. He directly split the dead woman's head with a knife. I would never do that.
After Ruan Hongyu died, Boss Gu forced her ghost out to interrogate Ma Mingshi's whereabouts. Ruan Hongyu hated him so much that she couldn't possibly tell the truth, so she made up a lie and got rid of them. After that, she was sealed here and never went out. Unexpectedly, Ma Mingshi was killed tonight. The ghost chased us to the sewer entrance but didn't dare to go down, so the two old lovers met. The old ghost then asked her to kill us both and then go after Xuanzhen.
After listening to her story, I scratched my nose and fell into deep thought. Why did my dad and Boss Gu come here together? Why didn't he tell me that his ghost was running around after his death? And why was his soul trapped in the Death Valley after his death
Shen Bing woke up at this time. With my recovery of the Taoist energy, she looked much better, but her face was still haggard. She didn't catch up to listen to the story, and asked me what I was talking about with this female ghost. So I told her what happened before, and Shen Bing was furious. She pinched the magic formula to activate the copper coin formation, and it was a burst of crackling bombardment on the dead woman. She lacked the fire to set up the formation, but she still had the skills to activate the formation. But when she moved her vitality, she fainted again.
Seeing that we were going to kill her, the bitch got angry too. She rushed over with a yellow light and stretched out her ghost claws to scratch Shen Bing's head. I was so shocked that I didn't have time to think too much. I pulled out the peach wood sword and stabbed her spiritual orifice. A puff of green smoke came out. The bitch screamed miserably and flew back five or six meters, then turned into wisps of green smoke and drifted away. The green light of her ghost eyeballs went out, and the sewer returned to darkness.
I quickly infused Shen Bing with Taoist energy again, and after a long time she finally let out a long breath and woke up.
The first thing she asked when she woke up was: "Is the evil ghost dead?"
"died."
"Such a vicious woman, even if she dies eighteen times, I still won't feel relieved." Shen Bing said hatefully.
"Okay, let's not talk about her anymore. Where is the sewer entrance? Let's get out."
"Oh, yes, it stinks so much. My body is covered with stinky water. How can I get it back?" Shen Bing shouted loudly and stood up with help.
We walked to the entrance of the sewer and were about to climb out when suddenly a cold and gloomy air lingered above. I was startled, could it be that old ghost Ma Mingshi was guarding there
"Xiaofeng, quickly put me into the container. I need to recover my strength..." Xuan Zhen's weak voice came from the dark cave.
I didn't expect it to be the old Taoist priest. I answered and hurriedly searched for mineral water in my bag. Shen Bing asked, "Master Taoist priest, where is that old ghost?"
"I dumped him..."
Shen Bing said, "Don't be afraid. The bumpkin has recovered. If the old ghost dares to come back, he will be scared to death."
Xuan Zhen snorted and said, "If I hadn't used my energy to help him detoxify, he would have died long ago, and I wouldn't have been chased around by an old ghost."
No wonder he couldn’t even defeat a newly dead ghost. I thought he became useless after being transformed back into a ghost by the Qingming Arrow. It turns out that this is not the case. He used up all his energy in order to detoxify me.
After putting the Taoist priest into the bottle, we climbed out of the sewer, chanted the summoning spell, and the little white flag flew back happily. When we asked the pointed ghost, he told us that he saw an old ghost friend. The ghost magic of that damn thing was very powerful, and it even bewitched the ghosts in the little white flag, even Xiao Xueduo was not spared. Fortunately, the little white flag blocked it, so that thing could not get in, and they did not suffer the poisonous hand.
I was startled and asked him what that ghost friend was. The guy said it was an old female ghost, more difficult to deal with than a vixen. I had a brief relationship with him before. By this time, it was almost dawn, so I had to let the pointed ghost return the flag.
It was already daybreak when I ran back to the hotel. I didn't have time to sleep, so I took a hot bath first, then lay down on the soft big bed, planning to sleep for a while and set off for Guiming Mountain before noon. The dead woman told me that this mountain is more than 100 kilometers north of Bazhong, not very far, and I learned that there are still descendants of jade refining, so I am not in a hurry.
But just as I fell asleep, Shen Bing knocked me awake and came in anxiously saying that she had just finished taking a shower and was watching TV when she saw the news about the antique shop owner being killed. The police retrieved the surveillance video, which showed our images. Although it was not clear, they could mobilize citizens to provide clues and we would be found soon. Because the taxi had taken us to the antique shop, the driver would definitely be able to recognize us from the images.
