This was a white lie. From the tone of the little boy, that white lotus sister must be kind and beautiful in their hearts. How could she be the female ghost who attacked us just now?
"Is that so?" The little boy seemed to have understood something. His eyes dimmed, and the laughter of the children around him disappeared. Their faces were filled with sadness.
After a long time, the little boy raised his head again. The tears in his eyes could be seen.
"Big brother, big sister, don't blame Bai Lian. She's just too lonely.”
What was going on? Were the lives that were destroyed by the female zombie not blaming her? I looked at the little boy in disbelief, hoping to find the answer from his pure eyes.
As if sensing my thoughts, the little boy smiled and told us an ancient story.
The young girl came to the Mountain God Temple alone, but she was hit by a falling stone and died on the spot. No one came to ferret her soul, so she became a lonely ghost and lived in this mountain temple without a mountain god.
Every time there was a full moon, the girl who had died for no reason would cry alone. She felt that her experience was unfair, and as time passed, she became a malicious ghost.
She would cast a spell to keep all the children and girls of the same age who came to this mountain. The young girl wanted to keep them to accompany her. However, the young girl did not know that mortals on this mountain could not live for more than a few days without eating or drinking. As a result, the children she had kept died one by one.
The girl thought that it was all her fault, and extreme regret made her resentment even heavier. She occupied this mountain and drove away the villagers who came to besiege her. She turned this place into a ghost mountain that everyone feared.
The girl left the souls of the dead children here because she was afraid of loneliness. Even if these souls hated her, she didn't want to be alone anymore.
She had always thought that the children she had killed were afraid of her and hated her. In order to make up for her sins, the girl had learned a spell. It was to find a real living person. Through this living person, these innocent souls could be liberated. Thus, she went through many hardships and finally found the girl who had disappeared recently.
This young girl was White Lotus.
What Bai Lian didn't know was that after a few hundred years, the souls that she had unintentionally killed no longer hated her. Instead, they understood her pain. They were even willing to stay here and accompany her forever.
However, their souls were getting weaker and weaker after being unable to reincarnate for a long time. They could only pray for someone to ferry them and bring White Lotus along. That's why they reacted this way when they found out that we've already eliminated White Lotus 'hostility.
"Now, it's time for us to leave.”The little boy looked at the water elementalist, his clear eyes without any impurities.
"Mhm, I'll help you guys do it.”The water elementalist nodded.
After gathering the children in an open space, the water elementalist closed his eyes and began to cast a spell. Suddenly, a clear aura appeared beside him, bringing with it an unprecedented gentleness. It surrounded the souls that were getting fainter and fainter, slowly lifting them up into the sky.
"Goodbye, big brother, big sister!”The little boy waved at us in the air." And thank you! The new sister was in the temple.”
With a cloud of white smoke, the children's souls disappeared.
I wiped the tears from the corners of my eyes and held the water elementalist's hand. I'm not sad. Although their backgrounds are pitiful, I should be happy for them to be able to reincarnate as humans.
Opening the temple door, we saw the missing girl sleeping soundly inside. The water elementalist went forward to check the girl's pulse. After confirming that she was only unconscious, he carried her on his back and we went down the mountain together.
On the way back, he looked back at the once creepy Mountain God Temple again. The same moonlight shone, and all that was left was silence.
After returning the girl to her parents, the water elementalist and I returned to Boss Zhao's paper shop. Looking at the two door gods standing leisurely outside the door, we didn't choose to barge in this time.
"Brother Door God, can you let us in to see Boss Zhao?”I shook the small medicine bottle in my hand. If one needed a token to enter, then this bottle of Breeze Pills personally given by Boss Zhao was the most suitable.
Seeing the bottle in my hand, Qin Shubao snorted disdainfully and turned his face away from us. On the other hand, Yuchi Gong maintained a smiling appearance.
"Of course, since it's a bottle given to you by Master, it's enough to show that you have a deep relationship with Master. We naturally won't stop you.”After saying that, he moved to the side to make way for me and the water elementalist.
Looking at the two door gods, whose attitudes were completely different from before, I was in a good mood. I pulled the water elementalist and swaggered in through the main door. When he passed by them, he did not forget to make a face at Qin Shubao, who had been pulling a long face.
This was the second time I entered Boss Zhao's residence. I was no longer as afraid of the strange environment around me. I easily arrived at the courtyard.
"You guys are back." Seeing the excited me and the water elementalist following behind me, Boss Zhao walked towards us with the fan in his hand.”
"Of course it's solved!" I answered before the water elementalist could say anything. "That was a young girl with a pitiful background and a child who was equally pitiful. Water elementalists and I have already ferried their souls. The missing girl has also been safely handed over to her family.”
"Mhm, very good." After hearing me out, Boss Zhao's face showed some approval." It was indeed the right decision to send you guys to solve this problem.”
"Then what is the second mission?”Before I could fully enjoy the joy of completing the mission, the water elementalist couldn't help but ask.
"Young man, don't be so impatient.”Boss Zhao opened the fan in his hand in front of us with a smile and began to fan it slowly.
At this moment, I saw the pattern on the delicate fan. The entire fan was blank. However, when he looked closer, he could see a small animal-like shape suddenly appear on the fan.
Seeing that I was curious about the fan, Boss Zhao simply handed it to me for me to observe.
"What is this?" I took the fan and used my fingers to carefully stroke the protruding animal pattern.
From the blurry shape, it was a little fox.
" Speaking of this past, it has always been a knot in my heart," Boss Zhao slowly explained to us." This is a mistake I made in my early years due to my youth.”
Then he looked at the little fox in the fan and told me a story about his youth. It probably meant that by chance, he had obtained this fan that was said to be able to subdue demons. In order to test the spiritual power of the fan, he came to the mountain and happened to see a fox and a little fox.
He instinctively felt that the mother and son were demons who were cultivating, so he planned to subdue them with the fan in his hand. Who knew that the little fox had risked her life to block his attack, creating a bloody path for the female fox to escape. In the end, he kept the little fox in the fan, and the female fox had already escaped without a trace.# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:0131201912:42PM
