Chapter 606: A Pleasant Surprise
The ghoul’s mind was filled with all kinds of talismans that the master had casted.
The bolts of lightning struck the heads of the vengeful spirits, causing sparks to fly. The already ugly scalp became even uglier, even more unsightly than his appearance!
The three vengeful spirits were initially scholars, just like him!
The life of a soul was long, and there was no telling when an accident would occur. By then, the ghoul would lose his mind. If he was lucky, he would meet the master, and after being struck by lightning, he would be able to reincarnate. If he was unlucky… he would have to be an ugly ghoul that all spirits would be disgusted of!
So, forget about longevity!
Xie Qiao never expected that the obsession of his soul would disappear!
What a pleasant surprise!
Although she had taken in many spirits previously, every single one of them was very important to her.
Now that this annoying spirit had come to his senses, he would be a customer. Of course, she had to treat his customer politely.
Xie Qiao immediately invited the spirit into the carriage. When she was looking at the face that exploded… she was still smiling. “Now that you’ve gotten over it, your luck is pretty good. Qingming Festival is coming soon, just in time for the Gate of h.e.l.l to open. When you leave, I’ll burn some more joss paper for you. House, carriage, paper figurines. You can have anything you want. Do you have any other requests?”
Xie Qiao looked perfect with her smile.
After all, the ghoul had seen Xie Qiao lose her temper. Now that he saw her being so kind, he felt even more fearful inside.
“Master, you were already great to me before. There’s no need to be so… considerate. I’m… scared.” The annoying ghoul carefully tucked his clothes away.
Xie Qiao chuckled.
She had always been considerate, no?
Xie Qiao had two lifetimes of memories, but she was born as soon as she closed her eyes and opened them, so she did not know what h.e.l.l looked like.
She guessed that there would be a queue for reincarnation. Even if he was unlucky, he would have to delay it for a while. Therefore…
It was necessary to burn more joss paper. Seeing that the spirit was so sensible, she would burn some paper servants to serve him.
She immediately asked the ghoul’s name and place of origin.
The ghoul’s grave was far away, so she could only burn the joss paper at an intersection. When the time came, she would have to say a few words to deliver the things to the ghoul.
The ghoul in front of her was uneasy, but he obediently agreed to her request.
Xie Qiao muttered in the carriage. The people outside were already used to it.
They felt a little uneasy, but hearing Master Mo’s calm tone, they knew that she was just talking to an ordinary ghoul.
The ghouls that could make Master Mo curse were the ones that they had to be afraid of.
When they returned to the capital, it was Qingming Festival.
Xie Qiao had already begun to lower her head, trying her best not to raise it.
“Master, are you feeling unwell?” Zhou Weizong and the others were very concerned about Xie Qiao when she got out of the carriage.
It was all thanks to the master’s help that the case was solved so smoothly. They had to take care of her well.
However, what was going on now?
She looked listless, like a flower bud that had not been watered under the hot sun. She did not have any energy at all.
“Nothing, it’s just that… There’s a man lying on your head. He’s very anxious and impatient. I don’t want to look at it,” Xie Qiao said faintly.
The corner of Zhou Weizong’s lips twitched.
The other guards were happy. “No way, Brother Zhou. Did you do something wicked? Did someone come to find you?”
It was just a joke.
Zhao Xuanjing snorted. That sounded quite mean.
The guard who spoke suddenly reacted…
The Taoist master said that there was always something around their master… So, did he accidentally scold the wrong person just now?
He immediately knelt.
