Chen Xi looked at the woman in the central room with a smile.
It was actually a bit inaccurate to call her a woman.
After all, Gu Yao had been dead for more than half a year, and her body had long decayed. How could she be considered a human now?
She should be a female ghost.
Chen Xi nodded toward the chair and after a polite greeting, the expression on the woman's face changed slightly. She looked no different from a real person.
Although her eye sockets were dark and she didn't even have eyeballs, there was still a hint of surprise in her eyes.
The woman stared straight at Chen Xi.
After a long while, she finally moved her lips slightly.
Immediately afterward, the woman's voice suddenly sounded in Chen Xi's mind.
"You … saw … me?"
Hearing this, Chen Xi couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.
That was interesting.
It turned out that not only did Gu Yao's soul not dissipate, but for some unknown reason, she also preserved some memories of her life while stabilizing her soul body.
No wonder Gu Yao had been staying with the twins, but the twins acted as if nothing had happened.
It was because Gu Yao was their biological mother, so even if she became a ghost, she would never hurt her children.
Chen Xi didn't answer Gu Yao's words. Instead, he stood in place and looked at her with interest.
This kind of behavior was actually very impolite.
Even animals had territorial consciousness, let alone ghosts.
Therefore, after looking at Chen Xi for a while, the darkness in Gu Yao's eye sockets became more and more intense.
It was like boiling ink, as if it could splash out of the pot at any time …
Sure enough.
After a few breaths of time, Gu Yao slowly flew up from the chair in a very strange way, and then looked down at Chen Xi condescendingly.
If one looked carefully, they would find that Gu Yao's body was not very real. It was vaguely like a projection of a 3D holographic image.
The candles in the central room were curled up with smoke.
Perhaps because the lights in the room were not turned on, the originally kind Guan Yin statue seemed to be covered with a layer of shadow. It looked a bit ferocious and terrifying …
Suddenly.
A gust of chilly wind blew past, and the sound of leaves rustling could be heard from outside the house.
The sky suddenly became a lot gloomier. It was dark and oppressive, as if a rainstorm could suddenly fall at any time.
"Leave … I won't kill you …"
Gu Yao's voice sounded again.
However.
After Chen Xi heard her words, he gently shook his head, and then thoughtfully turned to look outside the house.
After a person dies, the seven spirits disperse first. Then, the heaven soul returns to the heavens, the earth soul returns to the earth, and the life soul enters the cycle of reincarnation.
Ghosts were formed from Earthly Souls, so they lacked Heavenly Souls and Life Souls. Naturally, they could not have complete personalities and thoughts like they did when they were alive.
Therefore, if one wishes to deal with ghosts, one must first treat them as if they were mentally retarded.
They were easily angered and irritated. At the same time, they were extremely aggressive. They would chop people up in the middle of the street if they didn't agree with them.
Chen Xi didn't seem to realize what he was dealing with.
Therefore, the moment Chen Xi turned around to look outside, Gu Yao was completely enraged by his actions, and went completely berserk …
"Ah!!!"
Accompanied by an ear-piercing scream that pierced the depths of one's soul, a strong wind suddenly blew in the central room.
Gu Yao's facial expression suddenly became particularly ferocious.
Her head of black hair fluttered in the wind, and her pair of pupil-less eyes were constantly oozing black blood...
She was an evil ghost that had just crawled out of hell!
However, Chen Xi seemed to be unaware of anything, and continued to look outside the house.
Gu Yao had already issued a warning, but Chen Xi was not moved at all.
Therefore...
Gu Yao completely turned into a vengeful ghost, and fiercely pounced on Chen Xi!
...
Why would people be afraid of ghosts?
It was because the two of them were not on the same level, and there was no way to fight back.
An ordinary person holding a Guanyin Bodhisattva from the night market, or chanting a few Amitabha, wanted to subdue an evil ghost with deep resentment...
That was a plot that only existed in movies.
Everything in the world had a spirit.
From the moment Gu Yao turned into a ghost, she had already become a completely new life form.
A life form that existed in the world in the form of energy, and was very fragile.
Ghosts were more likely to come into contact with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth than humans, so ordinary people could not deal with ghost attacks at all.
This was because they had no idea how the ghosts were attacking them.
And if...
Humans also came into contact with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and learned how to use it, then would ghosts still be a match for humans?
It was like asking a mentally disabled person to fight with a normal person. How could the former win against the latter?
Unless the latter was also mentally disabled...
Chen Xi was clearly not mentally disabled.
Moreover, his understanding of the laws of heaven and earth was far beyond the imagination of ordinary immortal cultivators.
Therefore, the moment Gu Yao pounced on Chen Xi, it was as if she had crashed into a high-voltage electric net, and her entire body trembled violently.
"Chi!"
Perhaps because it was too painful, Gu Yao suddenly let out an ear-piercing scream, then suddenly turned into a cloud of gray smoke and flew back to the table in the central room at an even faster speed.
"Running?"
Seeing this, Chen Xi smiled slightly, then took out the Soul Crystal and gently waved at the cloud of gray smoke.
The gray smoke continued to churn and jump, as if it was still making its final struggle.
But under the restraint of Chen Xi's enormous True Yuan, all efforts were futile.
The Soul Crystal seemed to have turned into the purple-gold red gourd of the Golden Horned King. At Chen Xi's command, the Soul Crystal directly sucked in Gu Yao's ghost.
The cold wind came to an abrupt stop.
The sun shone again, leaving a rectangular golden spot on the ground through the door frame. This central room, which was facing the south, suddenly became much more spacious and bright.
Chen Xi picked up the Soul Crystal and looked at it. There was a cloud of gray fog inside.
And this was clearly Gu Yao's Yin Soul.
Chen Xi played with the Soul Crystal in his hand.
After a while, Gu Lao quickly walked back with a cup of tea.
"Come, have a taste of my tea. I specially brought it from other places, after the rain, it's very precious..."
Gu Lao handed the teacup to Chen Xi, then sat aside with a smile.
Chen Xi held the teacup and took a sip, then put on an intoxicated expression, and then praised very exaggeratedly, "Good! Good tea! You really have good taste! "
"Okay? Try more. I prepared a few kilograms for you, you can take some back later... "
"How can I accept it?"
"Why are you being so polite with me? Don't be polite! Just take it! "
Gu Lao waved his hand generously.
But the old man didn't know...
Not only did Chen Xi take his tea leaves, but she also took his daughter away ….
Of course.
The reason why Chen Xi did this was not to hurt Gu Yao, but to help her.
After all, the Soul Crystal was the most precious treasure in the world. Even Chen Xi used the Soul Crystal to nourish his Divine Soul, so the benefits were needless to say.
Ghosts were born after people died. Therefore, compared to people, ghosts were actually incomplete. Therefore, it wouldn't be long before they completely disappeared from this world.
