C23 (2/2)
When Yi Yun said this, the old man was obviously surprised for a moment. Finally he let out a long sigh, reached out a dry hand to wipe his face, and spoke in a low voice.
Originally, the old man and his son had thought that the old lady was definitely going to die, but they hadn't thought that the old lady would wake up after being unconscious for three days and three nights. Originally, this was a joyous event, but who knew that the first thing the old lady did after waking up was to eat.
At first, this was normal, but no one could have imagined that what the old lady wanted to eat this time wasn't rice or porridge, but incense.
This frightened everyone. After discussing it with his son, they all felt that the old lady might have been unconscious for too long, so they decided to make her a bowl of porridge instead.
However, just as the old lady finished her bowl of porridge, she vomited once more. Furthermore, the thing she vomited out was actually something black and smelly with an indescribable stench.
It was only then that everyone noticed the abnormality. The old man let his daughter-in-law look at the old lady while he and his son hid to the side to discuss it.
So, there's a legend here that ghosts can only eat candles, they absolutely can't eat things normal people eat, otherwise it's no different from eating poison.
The old man and his son obviously knew about this legend, so they discussed and got a candle for the old lady. The old man and his son obviously knew about this legend, so they discussed and got a candle for the old lady.
After that is the old man's son chasing after his wife, and then the old man chasing after her until Yi Yun and I arrive.
At this point, the old man looked at Yi Yun with a pale face and asked, ”Mister, is there any way to deal with this matter?”
Yi Yun sighed, shook his head and replied, ”Things are already like this, there's no other way. Moreover, I think your son and daughter-in-law have long been buried in the mountains. The only thing I can do now is to bring your wife's soul back, lest he comes back to harm you.”
”Master, it won't happen!” The old man became anxious when he heard this and waved his hands, begging, ”I beg of you, please don't bring my wife away. Now that my son's wife is gone, how can I live by myself if you take my wife away?”
Yi Yun gave a faint smile and waved his hand, ”I only care about the dead. I don't care about the living. Besides, Yin and Yang are on different paths. If your wife comes again, you'll be the first one to die.”
The old man was already in tears, almost begging Yi Yun. However, Yi Yun seemed to have hardened his heart, and didn't have any leeway to speak, ”Even if you want to, you can't. Your wife is too stubborn, and once she's alone, it'll be fine. I'll be right here, I have to deal with this matter.”
Hearing this, the old man sat down on the ground and stared at Yi Yun with a dull expression. His lips began to tremble violently and his throat began to produce a bubbling sound. In a short moment, his face turned purple as he fell down.
When I saw this, my expression changed. I thought to myself, ”Don't be so kind as to do such a bad thing. If someone dies again, that would be troublesome.”
Yi Yun was also surprised when he saw this. He pinched his fingers and thought for a moment before nodding, ”That's how it should be, but logically speaking, their fortune in the next life should not be shallow and they should still be family. However, this old woman is a bit uncertain.”
While speaking, Yi Yun walked towards the dilapidated house. After circling around the house, he returned to the bonfire. I looked closely and saw that it was actually a cloth shoe. It seemed to belong to that old lady.
Yi Yun took the cloth shoes and looked at them for a moment before raising his hand to look at the time. He handed the cloth shoes over to me and said with a mysterious expression, ”Now is the time for you to display your abilities.”
I looked at Yi Yun with confusion. Even though he said that I had left the Yin Master's side, I honestly didn't have any clue as to what I could do or what I wanted to do.
”Read it out with me!” Yi Yun had a faint smile on his face, but there was no doubt in his eyes.
I had no choice but to hold the cloth shoes and read it out loud to Yi Yun.
”Walking Yin Mufan, four seal of great age, chasing soul for a thousand miles, holding the spirit close to it. The cloth shoes have an owner, and the spirit soul recognizes him, bind him!”
Following my shout, the word ”bind” has been stretched for a long time and was transmitted far away. At the same time, a weird aura emitted from the cloth shoe, spreading out like a huge net.
After about half a minute, my body jolted and I clearly felt the black shadow that had fled far away. I couldn't help but be overjoyed as I shouted in my mind, ”Come!”
When I came back to my senses, the black shadow had already appeared in Yi Yun's palm. He took out a piece of red paper and wrapped it around the black shadow before throwing it into the fire without hesitation.
