Chapter 183 - Restless Female Ghosts (2)
Chapter 183 Restless Female Ghosts (2)
Mr. Zhang shuddered and subconsciously did as he was told.
When the ash was scattered on the ground, many blood-colored footprints immediately appeared on it, making Mr. and Mrs. Zhang extremely shocked.
At the same time, Tang Li took out a few talismans and threw them at the female ghosts.
The female ghosts were angry too. Wind started to blow in the room from outside. Soon, the entire room was surrounded by black smoke.
Just as Mr. and Mrs. Zhang were scared speechless, the dark smoke dissipated. They looked at Tang Li, who was standing in the middle of the temple hall, and they found that her body was still emitting specks of golden light. The memorial tablets in front of her had all turned into sawdust, and a female ghost dressed in red walked out of the smoke. At that moment, Tang Li, who had her back to them, said, “Bring the children in and kneel.”
Mr. and Mrs. Zhang hurriedly brought the children in and quickly knelt there.
Tang Li asked the female ghost, “Since the rest of the female ghosts are all gone, why are you lingering?”
“I can’t rest in peace.”
After the red female ghost finished speaking, blood tears flowed out of her eyes and her body actually emitted a red glow. Tang Li thought to herself, “Damn it.” With a wave of her hand, everyone from the Zhang family was pushed outside the door.
Then they heard her saying, “No one is allowed to come in until I come out.”
With that, the door was slammed.
The moment the door was slammed, the room was lit up with red lights. Then, Tang Li blacked out for a moment. When she came to her senses, she was already in a different world.
“I didn’t expect you to have the ability to drag me into your consciousness.”
“I just want you to see the reason I can’t rest in peace.” As the woman finished speaking, a girl in a pink cheongsam walked over.
The girl was very demure and graceful, looking like a daughter from a rich family. As expected, a voice called her from behind. “Miss, why are you here?”
Following that, a girl dressed like a servant caught up from behind.
The girl in cheongsam stopped and smiled gently. “What’s wrong, Xiaomei?” Xiaomei smiled and told her, “Young Master Jiang is here to propose marriage to you.”
“Really?” The girl’s face lit up at first. Then, as she recalled something, the surprise on her face was gone. Xiaomei followed behind her and continued, “Miss, you and Young Master Jiang were childhood sweethearts. We were all making wild guesses as to when he would come to propose marriage. We didn’t expect him to really come on the day of your coming-of-age ceremony.”
The girl said shyly. “You guys are really chatterboxes.”
“Hehe.”
The moment that girl left, the scene changed.
Tang Li was now in a hall.
At that moment, a handsome young man was chatting with a middle-aged man and a woman.
The middle-aged couple was obviously very satisfied with the young man. Both of them had smiles on their faces.
When the girl walked in, the young man immediately stood up, his eyes filled with deep love. “Yuxiu, I’m here to propose a marriage.”
The girl lowered her head shyly, but the corners of her lips curled up. “I’m only 16 years old. I still want to be with Mom and Dad for another two years.”
“You can still come back to spend time with them after we get married.”
“How is that the same?”
The girl glanced at him, but her cheeks were bright pink
The young man looked at her gently and smiled. “It’s definitely the same. Didn’t we agree on this already?”
The smile on the girl’s face widened.
The middle-aged couple sitting there looked at the two of them with smiles on their faces.
Then the scene changed again. In the pond pavilion, a young man was putting on earrings for a woman.
“I specially got someone to custom-made this agate earring for you. You really look good with it.”
The girl leaned into the young man’s arms and smiled happily. Her eyes were filled with love. The young man held the girl’s hand and said gently,
“After we’re married, we’ll have a child first. Then, I’ll take you to Beiping. Don’t you always want to study there? You can give it a try. If you can pass, I’ll transfer my business to Beiping. You study while I do business. I’ll support your study until you get bored of it.”
The girl nodded with sparkling eyes and asked shyly, “Then what about our child?”
“If our parents want to bring our child up, then we’ll leave our child to them. Otherwise, I’ll take our child to Beiping with us.”
The girl smiled in his arms.
The scene then changed again.
With the invasion of foreign enemies, chaos broke out overnight. Peace was gone and the people were burning in flames. The war affected the city where the young man and girl were.
The number of people wanting to resist the enemy increased and the young man joined in. At this time, it was only two months away before they were officially married.
The young man didn’t want her to suffer with him, so he asked her to take his family and her family to Province C.
While they were bidding farewell on the train station, the young man hugged the girl tight and promised her, “Yuxiu, wait for me. When I chase away the enemies with the others, I’ll come back and marry you.”
The girl waited for two years.
When the girl received a letter from the young man, saying that he would come back to marry her in two months, a few bandits suddenly barged into her house. They killed her elders and then abducted her.
Later, they sold her to a warlord.
The warlord wanted to sleep with her, but the moment she was about to be molested, she killed the warlord and committed suicid
After going through the girl’s life, Tang Li had mixed feelings.
At this moment, the girl turned into a red-dressed woman and asked Tang Li, “Tell me, how am I supposed to forgive them? My family has been killed by them, and the person I’m waiting for will never see me again. How can I rest in peace? How?!!!”
As the woman spoke, tears of blood flowed from the corner of her eyes.
Looking at the red glow on her body, Tang Li sighed and said, “Mr. Zhang was adopted by former madams in the Zhang family. The Zhang family has no offspring. It’s time for you to let go.”
“No, I can’t… I want to see Jingyu.”
The woman’s obsession was too deep, so deep that Tang Li could not force her to leave, or else she would take the children away with her.
Tang Li thought for a while and said, “I’ll help you find your Jingyu’s grave. If he doesn’t get married and have children, I’ll bury you with him. What do you think?”
“Really?” That was obviously what the woman wanted. She then told Tang Li where the man should be.
Tang Li nodded and asked, “Do you have any relics that you two have in common?”
“Yes.” After saying that, the woman was gone, leaving behind a red agate earring on Tang Li’s palm.
Looking at the earring in her hand, Tang Li murmured, “No wonder.”
This earring already had spiritual energy. In addition to the woman’s resentment, it was turned into a vicious weapon. That was why the children of the Zhang family were so weak and couldn’t live past ten years old.
After Tang Li put away the earring, a golden glow emitted from Tang Li’s body. In the next second, she was transported back to the Zhang family’s temple hall.
The temple hall was very quiet. All the tablets had been turned to dust. Tang Li glanced at the Bodhisattva and walked over to open the door.
