Chapter 210: Transmigration and Persuasion With a creak! The door behind him opened! An old man in a cotton coat walked out with a cane. The two servants immediately stepped aside. The old man also saw Lin Jue and Luo Seng walking back, as well as the ghosts and residual souls behind them. But although he was weak and not as good as the servants, he was much braver than them. Seeing this scene, he was not afraid at all. Instead, he knelt down and bowed to the ghosts behind the two men: "I used money to ask you all to help me, but I didn't expect to harm your lives. I really feel sorry for you all..." The remnant soul naturally had no reaction. The ghost surnamed Xu accepted it calmly and just said: "Get up, you're already dead, this is the only thing we need to eat, why bother talking about all that, just burn more incense for us and build a better cenotaph for us later." "It must be so!" The old man stood up shakily with the help of a cane, and then looked at the two people in front of him. The Taoist looked calm, while the warrior held a gun in one hand and a knife in the other. His clothes were a little torn and his body was stained with black blood. He couldn't help but ask: "Are Lord Luo and the real person injured?"
"It's not a big injury, Mr. Yang can rest assured. The black zombie should be the source of the unrest in the village before, and now it has been eliminated. If there is no other source of zombies in the village, or if they cause trouble again, there will be no more zombies in the future." Luo Seng said, pointing his finger at Lin Jue, "Mr. Yang must thank this Taoist priest Lin for his help." "On behalf of the people of Yangjia Village and Runze County, I would like to thank Taoist Lin. Please accept my greeting." "It's as it should be. No need to be polite." "Thank you, Mr. Luo." "You don't need to thank me for doing things for money." While everyone was talking, they saw the ghost named Xu standing nearby, as if he had no intention of leaving. "Mr. Xu..." The old man couldn't help but look at him again, thinking that he might have some unspeakable wish, so he asked the two servants, who were both frightened and surprised, to go back to the house and closed the door, and then asked: "Does Mr. Xu have any unfulfilled wishes?" But the ghost surnamed Xu replied: "Xu lost his parents when he was young, and his wife and children were eaten by monsters when he was young. Now he is alone, and he only has this life and death blood feud, what wish do he have?" "In this case, now that the zombie has been eliminated by Master Lin and Lord Luo, Lord Xu's blood feud has been avenged, you can leave early and rest in peace." "The blood feud has been avenged, but there is something else behind the blood feud." "what?" "Didn't Mr. Yang say that there is something fishy about this matter?" The ghost surnamed Xu said, and he couldn't help but snorted, as if he was a bit of a rogue. "Besides, even if I leave, where can I go? I have committed too many sins in my life. I am afraid that I will not have a good life even if I go to the underworld. It is better for me to be a ghost here with you." "But I heard that new ghosts are big and old ghosts are small. Even if Xu Gong becomes a ghost, his life span will be burned by the sun and the moon and gradually worn away." "Who did you listen to?" "I heard it from others. Mr. Xu thought, if being a ghost can last forever, then why have you never seen ghosts from a thousand years ago?" The old man said in a trembling voice, thinking for him, "Mr. Xu may think so just because he has just become a ghost and has not yet experienced the bitterness of being a lonely ghost. If he does not rest in peace, his days of suffering will be long." "What's the matter?" The ghost named Xu became a little impatient when he heard him refute him, and gradually showed his vicious look. The old man was immediately shocked.
Luo Seng also frowned, feeling something was wrong. "Not good. Although Mr. Xu has fulfilled his wish, looking at his behavior, I'm afraid he is unwilling to die in vain and is becoming stubborn." After all, the old man has lived a long life and is knowledgeable, so he said immediately. Luo Monk also persuaded the ghost named Xu: "Brother Xu, you and I both travel the world, making a living by killing demons and ghosts. How could we not know how miserable the lives of wandering ghosts in this world are? Loneliness drives people crazy and drives ghosts into demons." "This……" The ghost named Xu had great admiration and respect for Luo Seng. Hearing him say this, he couldn't help but retract his fierce look and began to hesitate. "Ghosts belong to the underworld. If Brother Xu insists on staying in the human world, I dare not stop him. However, Brother Xu will have only two choices in the end: either he will gradually fade away in the wind and frost, and become a ghost like a candle in the wild, wasting himself in loneliness, or he will turn into an evil ghost and cause chaos everywhere, becoming like the ghosts that Brother Xu has killed before." "..." The ghost named Xu was stunned for a moment, as if he had figured it out, and then said, "It's very simple to ask you to rest in peace. I need you to do me a favor." "Just say it bluntly!" "Just tell me, Mr. Xu! I will do it!" The ghost surnamed Xu hesitated for a moment before speaking: "After all, I committed too many sins in my life, and I died in vain. It is said that both of these will be punished in the underworld, so I dare not go to the underworld. You must find a master who is both virtuous and has great cultivation to perform a ritual to help me transcend, so that I can return with peace of mind." This request is reasonable. He is just a great man with great virtue and accomplishment... It’s neither easy nor difficult to find. It’s hard to find but also simple. Luo Seng and the old man pondered in their hearts, and turned their heads at the same time to look at the young Taoist priest in a gray Taoist robe beside them. Even the ghost named Xu looked over. Even the junior sister and the fox turned their heads and looked at him. "Ok?" Lin Jue was stunned: "Why are you three looking at me?" "Master, can you please ..." "You three may not know that although I am a cultivator, I only practice spiritual arts. I am far from being a person of great virtue and accomplishment, and I do not know how to perform rituals or chant sutras to liberate the dead. I only have some magical skills to exorcise demons and monsters and perform some clever transformations." Lin Jue explained for them. "This……" The two men and the ghost were all stunned. The ghost named Xu also looked disappointed. Seeing this, Lin Jue couldn't bear it after all. He looked at the ghost named Xu and said:
"But when I was in the mountain, I also heard about the rules of the underworld: although there is a saying that killing too much will be punished, it must be indiscriminate killing of innocent people. Although there is also a saying that wrongful death will be punished, it must be for committing suicide for no reason and for a small matter. The purpose is also to make people respect their own lives and act cautiously." "really?" "Xu Gong thought, ghosts were once human, so now that they are ghosts, do they no longer follow the principles of their lives? In the same way, if someone is considered guilty of killing someone because he or she exorcises evil spirits, or if someone is sentenced to death because he or she was killed by a ghost while trying to protect a place, what kind of logic is this?" Lin Jue said for a while: "Mr. Xu is a free and easy man in the martial arts world. Why does he have to be so stubborn? Even if he committed some murders during his lifetime, as long as he is true to his heart, what is there to fear?" The ghost named Xu had seen him perform magic to exorcise demons, and had long regarded him as a deity. He respected him very much and naturally believed what he said. And these words also touched his heart. Seeing this, Lin Jue added: "Besides, Xu Gong even dared to face the black zombie. In order to keep his promise and eliminate the demon, he would not retreat until his death. Why should he not dare to go to the underworld?" The ghost named Xu seemed to be thinking about something, and gradually he looked enlightened. Then he bowed to him solemnly. He turned around and took a step, and his figure slowly disappeared. The two people around him then looked at Lin Jue. "The Taoist priest still says that he can't perform a ritual to liberate the souls of the dead?" Luo Seng said. "Indeed not." Lin Jue said truthfully. "I can't perform the ritual of salvation, but Sheng can." Luo Seng said with a smile. "The same principle is also true for the scriptures for salvation." The old man couldn't help but sigh, "But the Taoist priest himself must be virtuous and convincing, so that these words can touch Mr. Xu's heart." "It was just an accident." "What about these guys?" The old man looked at the remaining soul that had followed them back. Among them were four martial artists and five constables. "These are the residual souls created by obsession. Perhaps they are unwilling to die in vain, or for other reasons, they have not become ghosts, but are unwilling to leave." Lin Jue explained to them, "They are more difficult to communicate with than ghosts, and they cannot live in the underworld like ghosts. Only by knowing what obsessions they have, maybe we can let them rest in peace." "I don't know either. I haven't known these four heroes for long." Luo Seng said to him, "However, in the past few years, there have been many demons and ghosts causing trouble in Qinzhou, harming many people. In this era, heroes who dare to make a living by fighting these demons and ghosts with just a sword or a knife, in addition to their martial arts, most of them also have some hatred and anger to support them." Then he paused: "These constables are from Yangjia Village, so they dare to come here to work. Now, five or six out of ten people in the village have gone, maybe they want to see if their family members are still here." When the old man heard this, he immediately went into the house. Not long after, someone came out. Someone else went to another wealthy family's yard to call for help. A few cries were gradually heard in the yard. "My dear heroes, now that the evil has been eliminated in the village, when the drug-absorbing stones are dried and the patients in the village are cured, you can leave now." Lin Jue tried to persuade them. The two officers slowly disappeared. The remaining four heroes and three constables were reluctant to leave, their figures swaying in the cold night.
Luo Seng and the old man had no choice but to look at Lin Jue. "If you are willing to rest in peace, then rest in peace. If you really don't want to rest in peace, you can also leave. This world is so big that you will have your own place to return to." Lin Jue said sincerely, "If you don't want to rest in peace, and don't want to leave and disappear in this world, and you still have a heart to eliminate demons, you can follow me and help me to eliminate demons and monsters, and drive out evil and uphold justice." Luo Seng was a little surprised and turned to look at him. However, the obsession of the seven residual souls really showed signs of movement, as if this was their wish. Then Lin Jue took out a small porcelain bottle. "If you want, you can go into the bottle!" "Suddenly..." Several residual souls and obsessions came one after another and entered the bottle. "I will definitely not let you down!" Lin Jue said this and put the cork in the bottle. Only then did the courtyard become quiet again. Luo Seng and the old man looked quite surprised, but the junior sister and the fox were used to it. One of them leaned against the wall and stared at them, while the other sat on the ground and scratched his head with his hind paws. "It's late at night, go back and rest." Lin Jue said, looking at the old man, "Is there any family in the village... with a vacant house? Can my two junior sisters borrow it for a few nights?" How could the old man not know what he meant. "The yard across the street is my cousin's. Everyone in his family has died, and the door is not locked. If you don't mind, you can live there." "The old man has some courage, but don't worry anymore." "Thank you, Taoist Master." "By the way, the village buffalo helped me last night and got injured. It can be considered as a contribution to the village. Please take good care of it, old man." "This is natural." The old man bowed to him sincerely. Lin Jue and his junior sister returned the greeting and went out. The moonlight was dim and cold, and the village was extremely quiet. There is a yard opposite, and the door is indeed not locked. The brother and sister went in and each found a room. Lin Jue gave the night watch light to the younger sister, while he relied on Fuyao to keep alert. Find a couch to lie down on and think. Although the black zombie tonight is powerful, it is not as powerful as the black bear monster before. Lin Jue has not taken the magic speed pill and has not dealt with it. In addition, he is no longer the same person as before, so his mood is not too fluctuating. It is a happy and honorable thing that seven more heroes are willing to follow. In addition to the inner emotions, the tangible gains are also extraordinary.
The seven heroes already exceeded the total number of bean soldiers he had at the moment. The four martial arts masters in the middle are expected to be good at martial arts. There are also three constables, and I don't know how good their martial arts are. However, for the Bean Soldier spell, it is naturally a good thing that the residual soul was good at fighting when he was alive, but the impact is not that great. Firstly, the bean soldiers themselves are not as flexible as real people, and they cannot use many physical skills. After becoming residual souls, most of their skills and experience in life will be lost, and the bonus of martial arts will also be weakened. Secondly, the reason why the martial artists in Jianghu are so powerful is that in addition to their martial arts, they also have the strength that they have painstakingly honed. However, after becoming a bean soldier, they have already changed their bodies. How powerful this body is depends only on Lin Jue's training, not on their strength before death. Therefore, the most important thing is character. Martial arts skills are a must, and the higher the better, but there is no need to be too obsessed with it. What gave Lin Jue a headache was—— Where can I find these spiritual trees? There was still half of the Li Zu Mu Xin that I got at that time left, which was enough to make two bean soldiers. Lin Jue had even carved out the outline, and the weapons and armor were also ready. It would be very simple to make more, but there was still five missing. Could it be that we are using the ash wood that we just got from Kuze County? Although this linden wood has spiritual charm, it is not a spirit after all. It can barely be used to make bean soldiers, but it is far inferior to the previous Li Zu wood heart and Dan Guo wood. And ash has other uses. Lin Jue also planned to use it to refine the Giant Spirit Pill. Using it to make bean soldiers is not only inappropriate, but also a bit of a waste. "Ugh……" Lin Jue couldn't help but sigh. The fox beside him sighed like him. Then he fell asleep thinking about it. (End of this chapter)
