pity or charity. I want you to just listen and follow orders, hehehe..." I imagined the terms I was about to propose and couldn't help but grin foolishly.Jiang Qiyun narrowed his eyes, that alluring...The female ghost's attire did not resemble that of ordinary people.

Ming Dynasty Hanfu was the last Huaxia attire worn by the Han people before shaving their heads and changing into other garments. After a long period of development, Ming Dynasty Hanfu is beautiful, dignified, and elegant. Although it is tightly wrapped, its curves are graceful.

Her attire looked very luxurious, with a pipa sleeve blouse and pleated horse-faced skirt... like someone from a wealthy family.

But she did not have her hair in a bun, so she must not have been married yet.

From this distance, it is difficult to determine the ghost's exact age. It can only be discerned whether she is an adult, a child, or an elderly person.

A ghost is a ghost, even if it manifests clearly, it's not a flesh-and-blood living person.

Her voice was a little unsteady, her eyes lost in confusion: "Who am I..."

A single black teardrop rolled down her cheek. "Haven't I even left my name behind in this world… Who will remember me, who will know my pain…"

"Come on, you're being a pain! A bunch of men and women stripped themselves bare to serve you, and you still complain" My brother couldn't help but scold him.

When the female ghost shed blood tears, black energy erupted from the pit beneath her feet. If the formation's eye were in that pit, how could we possibly destroy the formation

We've been here for quite some time, perhaps it's already evening outside. By nightfall, when the yang energy fades and the yin energy pervades the world, maybe this female ghost will no longer be restricted.

We're not afraid of that old man who wears human skin, as long as he's still human, he'll be scared of my brother's taser, right

But this is a female ghost with four hundred years of cultivation, I wonder if she's afraid of the Universe Sword in my brother's hand.

If the White Tiger hadn't gone to bite her, perhaps the gate of the prison for punishing evil spirits wouldn't have been locked against her.

Why would Jiang Qiyun tolerate a female ghost like this, and one with such a powerful background!

Four hundred years she did not wander around her resting place, what kind of pact was this

This problem just makes me feel so disheartened!

The people of Xiling Village should have initially been a small group who came to guard the tomb of the female ghost. Over time, they gradually grew and expanded (or perhaps used coercive means to bring in more people) until it became the village with nearly a thousand inhabitants it is today.

Only this old man's relatives are loyal, the other villagers don't know what's going on.

"Brother..."

He squeezed my hand, signaling that he understood.

At this point, it all comes down to understanding each other. The female ghost was clearly more interested in me, so I became her good bait to attract her attention.

I held the small peachwood sword, and said to the female ghost, "Since there's no name for you in this world, you should honestly reincarnate. What's the point of lingering here for hundreds of years"

She curved her lips into a smile: "Reincarnation After reincarnation, memories and magical powers are gone. Becoming an ordinary person, living a mediocre life, how could that be worthy of my status Shouldn't men and women in the mundane world be my slaves"

I frowned. "That vanity box is made of blood dragon wood, which doesn't grow in Central China. The Ming Dynasty was closed off to the outside world, with only Grand Eunuch Zheng He sailing out to proclaim its military strength and... engage in national trade. Blood dragon wood should be something he brought back as a gift to the royal family... You being able to get your hands on such a vanity box suggests that you have connections to the royal people."

She was slightly taken aback, her whole body turning towards me.

"I'm really surprised... you, such a young girl, actually know so much"

I took a few steps forward, deliberately putting some distance between myself and my brother, continuing to draw the female ghost's attention.

“I understand more than you think, and I’ve read a lot of books. This era is different from the one in your mind… Ordinary people believe the Ming Dynasty was closed off from the world, but actually, the emperor just held the power of overseas trade in his hands. Otherwise, why did Eunuch Zheng He make seven voyages to the West”

Seven voyages to the West, our textbooks only briefly mention this.

Is it really just to promote national prestige Or is it to find the missing nephew

Think about it, why is there the Belt and Road Initiative in today's news Where did the Maritime Silk Road come from

The ruling class knows far more than we ordinary people ever will.

She stared straight at me, my words bringing back memories of her former glory.

"But only when the Ming Dynasty was at its peak did it have the manpower and resources to support voyages overseas. At that time, tribute from all over the world flowed into the Forbidden City. However, in the later period of the Ming Dynasty, when the Qing troops besieged the capital, the Ming Dynasty—"

She suddenly trembled all over like chaff, clutching her head in both hands and letting out a low growl of rage!

“Qing soldiers, Qing soldiers…… Tartars…… Those hideous Tartars! They are my enemies! My enemies! I will kill them all!! I will make them have their heads severed and exposed, their skins flayed and hearts ripped out! I will chop them into mincemeat, their bones ground to dust!!”

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA——!!!"

She grabbed her hair as if possessed, her eyes filled with black blood and tears!

"Master, please calm down...calm down... The Tartars are gone...they're gone..." The old man lay prostrate on the ground, weeping as he pleaded.

She laughed crazily: "Yes... gone...gone... that venerable god told me back then, my persistence meant nothing... hahaha...nothing at all..."

That deity Was she talking about Jiang Qiyun

I watched her madness with cold eyes. My brother had already seized the opportunity to move aside, quietly taking out a thick stack of charms from his waist pouch.

All the talismans were for attack and defense, stolen from the Shen family's armory. He planned to give them all to this female ghost.

I continued to provoke her, saying, "Yes, it's meaningless. You're just a ghost. I don't know what pact you have with the underworld, but even after four hundred years, or longer, you'll still be just a ghost. You can't be reborn without reincarnation. As you said, your corpse isn't even safe. How do you plan to be reborn"

"My corpse..." She was slightly taken aback.

Suddenly she roared in rage, "My body can still be reconstructed!!"

"You're the goddess' woman, aren't you Then I'll make a deal with you! Make him give me a new body!!"

“ — Why not give me your body! I've never experienced sleeping with a divine being, I wonder what it feels like to...make love with a god…Bring her to me! Now! I want her body! I want everything about her!!”

Her face contorted suddenly, her whole body twisting like a snake into a long strip. At her roar, the old man scrambled to his feet and charged towards me——

"Big Dipper Seven Star Venerable, Celestial Gang Great Sage God, Extermination Evil Dharma King, Heavenly Purity Protect Me, Clear Path of the Three Realms, Illuminate the Northern Nether Palace, I Follow Heaven and Earth's Mandate, Break Through the Nine Nether Gates, I Follow Celestial Venerable's Order, Shatter the City of Fengdu…"

I whispered the Nine Nether Profound Mantra. The Great One, Tai Yi, had once bestowed blessings upon my head at the gate of Mount Qinghua in Chang Le Realm. As his disciple, this Nine Nether Demon-Breaking Curse should be able to subdue her!

All changes happen in an instant.

My brother dissolved the talisman with the Five Elemental Fire Art, hurling a fireball into the hole. It looked like a meteor streaking across the sky!

The barrier flickered abruptly, and the little ghost attendant cried out in surprise, "Your Majesty has arrived!"

Jiang Qiyun drifted and landed beside me.

He frowned slightly, silently taking in the surrounding situation.

The female ghost's body was about to disperse, she stared blankly at Jiang Qiyun, black blood tears overflowing.

"Lord..."."Someone, definitely someone!" I patted his shoulder, raising my hand to point in that direction.Mu Wanchen suddenly reached out and grasped my palm, preventing me from pointing blindly."Don't be rid...
