After getting rid of the male ghost with the ghost head knife, Mo Shouchen and Su Ya did not encounter any particularly strong ghosts. They soon arrived at the entrance of Ainian Town.
Passing through the archway hung with white lanterns, you will find the Town of Sorrow. There are many ghosts in the town. Walking in directly like this can easily cause unnecessary trouble, and there is a high chance that Mrs. Xiao will discover it in advance.
Therefore, Mo Shouchen could only choose to use the ghostly aura emitted by the ghost-suppressing jade pendant to cover up the living aura on his body.
"If you find any sign that I'm losing control, quickly knock down the jade pendant and then find a way to control me."
Mo Shouchen explained to Su Ya, and then took out the ghost-suppressing jade pendant.
The moment his skin came into contact with the jade pendant, he suddenly felt that the ghostly energy infiltrating his body was like a catalyst, boiling the terrifying power that had been suppressed in his body.
He hurriedly used up all his energy to fight against the surging force for control of his body.
His expression was sometimes ferocious, sometimes painful, but fortunately, after a stalemate for a while, his expression gradually calmed down, and the power was finally suppressed.
Mo Shouchen wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked a little weak. Su Ya on the side was relieved to see that he was okay.
"Let's go!"
Although he was a little tired, if he delayed for one more second, Tang Yanzhen would be in more danger, so Mo Shouchen did not stop and took Su Ya directly into the town of mourning.
Because Mo Shouchen's living aura had been masked by the ghostly aura emanating from the Ghost Suppressing Jade Pendant, Mo Shouchen did not attract the attention of other ghosts along the way.
Relying on his memory, he quickly found Mrs. Xiao's yard.
Arriving at the door of the courtyard, Mo Shouchen saw some red marks on the door, probably because the couplet he wrote had not been wiped clean.
I didn't expect the devil's blood to be so stubborn. If I had known this, I should have written a few more words and covered the entire door.
Mo Shouchen first looked around and saw that there were no other ghosts around. He carefully leaned on the door and listened carefully to the movements in the yard.
After listening for a while, and after confirming that no one was in the yard, he asked Su Ya to use a thorn to open the door bolt inside, then slowly opened the door and walked in.
Mrs. Xiao's yard looks very neat and clean, as if it has just been cleaned.
When Mo Shouchen walked into the courtyard, he naturally looked at the locked room on the far left first, because that was where Mrs. Xiao kept the living people.
But just as he was about to walk over, Tang Yanzhen's scream suddenly came from the main room facing the courtyard gate, accompanied by the sound of things falling and breaking.
No, Tang Yanzhen is in danger!
Hearing Tang Yanzhen's cry, Mo Shouchen's mind went crazy. He rushed to the door of the main room, kicked the door open, and shouted at the same time: "Stop!"
Because his body was being invaded by ghost energy, and Tang Yanzhen was in danger, the terrifying power that had been suppressed in Mo Shouchen's body surged again, and it was stronger than the previous times.
But when he saw the scene in the house, he was dumbfounded.
Tang Yanzhen was seen sitting on the Eight Immortals Chair in the hall. She was holding a black cat in both hands and a broken teacup at her feet.
It seemed that the black cat jumped on the table and knocked the tea cup off the table, so Tang Yanzhe let out a exclamation.
On the other side of the table, Mrs. Xiao was also sitting on the Eight Immortals Chair, holding a tea cup in her hand, staring unkindly at Mo Shouchen who broke in.
A faint black gradually covered Mo Shouchen's eyes, and he had begun to lose control.
Feeling the aura emanating from Mo Shouchen, Mrs. Xiao showed a confused look, while Tang Yanzhen put down the black cat and stood up and ran to him, then held his hand and said, "I'm fine, calm down!"
Tang Yanzhen's hands were a little cold, but this gentle coolness, like cool spring water, immediately cooled down the terrifying power that was boiling in Mo Shouchen's body.
The blackness in his eyes gradually dissipated. Mo Shouchen looked cautiously at Mrs. Xiao, who was sitting on the chair of the Eight Immortals, and then asked Tang Yanzhen softly: "Did she hurt you?"
Tang Yanzhen shook his head: "No, Mrs. Xiao is very good to me. We were drinking tea and chatting."
"Have tea and chat?"
Mo Shouchen couldn't believe his ears. In his mind, Mrs. Xiao was an evil ghost who killed without blinking an eye. If it hadn't been for the fruit of the Ice Spirit Tree, he and several other ghosts would have been wiped out.
"Yes, there were some red ghosts trying to attack me in the elevator. Thanks to Mrs. Xiao, she arrived in time and helped me out."
As he spoke, Tang Yanzhen pointed to the little black cat that was rubbing her shoes and said: "Mrs. Xiao brought me here. I saw that her kitten had some problems, so I helped cure it. To express her gratitude, she asked
I drink tea."
Although he found it incredible, Mo Shouchen felt that with Mrs. Xiao's strength, there was no need to play any tricks, so she might not really intend to hurt Tang Yanzhen.
Mo Shouchen pulled Tang Yanzhen behind him, then cupped his hands to Mrs. Xiao, and said politely: "Thank you very much for your hospitality, we won't disturb you and say goodbye!"
Just as he was pulling Tang Yanzhen to go out, Mrs. Xiao waved her hand and a gust of wind directly closed the door.
Mrs. Xiao said in a cold tone: "What kind of place do you think I am, where I can come and leave whenever I want?"
Mo Shouchen frowned, turned around and looked at Mrs. Xiao warily, and asked at the same time: "What do you want?"
Mrs. Xiao snorted coldly and said: "Do you still remember the words you wrote on my door? Now I want you to clean up the traces of those words no matter what method you use, otherwise
You can never leave the Forgotten River!"
Mo Shouchen thought that Mrs. Xiao would make some unreasonable demands, but he didn't expect that she would just ask him to wipe away the marks on the door.
Judging from the experience of being almost wiped out by the group, Mo Shouchen felt that Mrs. Xiao's request was really not excessive at all.
"Okay, I'll wipe it now!"
Mo Shouchen turned around and walked outside. Tang Yanzhen and Su Ya also wanted to follow him to help, but Mrs. Xiao stopped them.
"Come back, you two drink tea with me and let him wipe it by himself!"
Mo Shouchen found a rag and then came outside the door. He spat on the rag and then wiped the red marks on the door hard.
However, after wiping for a long time, the marks did not change at all. It seems that these marks have been completely integrated with the door panel.
It couldn't be wiped off with a cloth, so Mo Shouchen had no choice but to use other methods. He looked around and found a rough stone, and then tried to rub it hard on the red mark twice, and the mark really faded.
After finding an effective method, he began to rub the marks on the door little by little with stones.
While he was rubbing it, he was complaining in his mind about what he did wrong in the first place, insisting on writing on the door. He really shot himself in the foot.
It took almost two hours to rub off all the red marks on the door. Mo Shouchen felt that his back was sore and he was even more tired than fighting an evil ghost.
After throwing away the stone, he returned to the main room and found Mrs. Xiao and Tang Yanzhen talking and laughing, and even Su Ya would occasionally say a few words.
I feel tired outside alone.
Mo Shouchen said to Mrs. Xiao depressedly: "I have wiped off the marks on the door, can we leave now?"
"no!"
Mo Shouchen gritted his teeth and said, "What else do you want?"
Mrs. Xiao picked up the tea cup and took a sip, and then said leisurely: "I ordered two wooden doors, but the craftsman was injured by a guy with a ghost-head knife, so he can't install the door for me for the time being. You go and fix those two doors now."
Replace the door for me."
Mo Shouchen was shaking with anger, and he said dissatisfiedly: "Since you want to replace the door, why do you ask me to remove the marks on the door?"
Mrs. Xiao smiled jokingly and said: "I can do whatever I want with my own door. You'd better move faster. If you miss the time and can't go back, you can't blame me."
Mo Shouchen knew that Mrs. Xiao was deliberately trying to trouble him, but in order to take Tang Yanzhen away, he could only swallow his anger and change the door.
After working for more than an hour, the two doors were finally replaced. This time, Mrs. Xiao did not embarrass him any more and allowed them to leave.
After leaving Ainian Town, Mo Shouchen looked back from time to time. He was worried that Mrs. Xiao would not let them go easily.
But after walking a long way, Mrs. Xiao didn't catch up, so it seemed that she was really safe.
Recalling Mrs. Xiao's murderous methods, Mo Shouchen felt scared. He felt that if Tang Yanzhen hadn't cured Mrs. Xiao's cat, they might not have been able to escape so easily.
And the culprit who almost killed them was his former good brother Liu Lei.
Thinking of the possibility of being plotted by Liu Lei in the future, Mo Shouchen couldn't help but said angrily: "Liu Lei, I must catch you and make an end with you!"
But at this time, Tang Yanzhen beside him said: "I think Liu Lei may not be as bad as you think..."
