I survive in the weird Liaozhai

Chapter 27: Mother and Child Ghost

"It's just that when they actually saw the thing that committed the crime, they were all a little dumbfounded."

"The murderer is not a human being at all, but a baby with bruises all over his body and not yet fully grown."

"That group of people were also quite frightened at the time and didn't dare to take action immediately."

"But later, under the dual pressure from the county magistrate and the Song family, I had no choice but to go ahead."

"But they regretted it after the fight. That thing is simply not something that ordinary people can deal with."

"That thing is not only invulnerable to swords and guns, but also surrounded by a thick cold evil spirit. After a few rounds of fighting, the blood and qi in the body of an ordinary warrior will almost coagulate, and it will be impossible to fight."

"As for running away, haha, do you think the county magistrate and the Song family are vegetarians?"

"Under the circumstances at the time, anyone who dared to flee would have his entire family thrown into jail the next day."

"A group of people stubbornly held out until dawn, and were only saved after that evil thing voluntarily gave in."

"But that fatal fight really surprised the Song family and the county magistrate."

"That devil slaughtered more than half of the entire team of several hundred people. The rest were almost all injured and few were able to fight."

"But it's impossible for the Song family's grandson not to look for him. At least find the body. Otherwise, no one will be able to explain."

"Later, a wandering Taoist priest passed by Qionghua County. He heard about this and took the initiative to contact the Song family. With his help, we were able to eliminate the ghost baby through some means."

"Afterwards, under the guidance of the wandering Taoist priest, they found the ghost mother in the village where the bandits had previously ravaged. After a fight, they burned the ghost mother to ashes. Only then did the matter come to a successful conclusion."

"Old Taoist, I just thought that the image of the ghost mother is somewhat similar to the woman in the red coffin you just described."

"There is a wound on the abdomen, and black blood is flowing. This is caused by the ghost baby breaking out of the abdomen."

"As for the scar on the heart, I heard that the mother and child are connected by heart. Once the ghost baby is born, the ghost mother will cut open her chest and take out her heart, and let the child swallow it to increase its strength."

"Moreover, it is extremely difficult for a mother-child ghost to be born. A woman must have been tortured inhumanely before her death and must be pregnant for there to be a very small chance of her being born."

Gu Nian'an just listened to the old Taoist's story in silence. He didn't ask until the old Taoist finished speaking and drank a sip of tea.

"Master, do you know what happened to that group of bandits?"

"Ugh!"

Taoist Qi Yuan sighed

"As long as these border bandits don't raise the banner of rebellion, the government won't launch a large-scale suppression campaign, and in the end, nothing will be done about it."

Gu Nian'an was not surprised by the old Taoist's answer, he just wanted to ask for clarification.

Is it Du Biao, the tiger coming down from the mountain? He remembered the name. If he had the chance to meet him, he would kill him. Such a conscienceless person does not deserve to live in this world.

"Then Master, do you know how the wandering Taoist priest eliminated the ghost mother and the ghost baby?"

Taoist Qi Yuan poured himself a cup of tea and thought for a while before answering this question.

"This incident caused a big stir in Muzhou at the time. Your uncle and I only heard about it but didn't experience it ourselves."

"There are several versions of this story circulating. I think the more reliable one is what I heard from a storyteller in a teahouse."

"It is said that the wandering Taoist priests at that time used the "Blood of a Hundred Infants" to lure out the ghost baby, and then used the Three Yang Ropes to make a net, and then everyone worked together to trap the ghost thing, and then managed to drag the ghost baby out to the sun to dry, and finally used the evil spirit-tainted vicious soldiers to directly dismember the body to get rid of the ghost thing."

"As for the ghost mother, she was almost half useless after giving birth to the ghost baby."

"The birth of a ghost baby requires a large amount of Yin Sha Qi. Only under special circumstances, coupled with 80% to 90% of the ghost mother's own Yin Qi, can the ghost baby be born successfully."

"So after the ghost baby is born, the ghost mother will spend almost half of her life. As long as the right method is used, it won't be a problem for the ghost mother to deal with it."

"Master, do you know what "Hundred Infants' Blood" and "Three Yang Rope" are?"

"Master really knows about the "Blood of Hundred Infants" and the "Three Yang Rope."

"Old Taoist, I have read about this in a book called 'Qu Ling Gui Tan Bi Lu'."

"The so-called 'Blood of a Hundred Infants' is a special bait made by taking a little blood from hundreds of children under the age of ten and blending it with the blood of five poisonous creatures: venomous snakes, scorpions, toads, spiders, geckos, etc."

"This thing has a fatal attraction to some evil things. As long as you place it within a certain range, you will definitely catch one."

"As for the San Yang Rope, it's actually quite simple. It's made by soaking an ordinary rope in black dog blood and rooster blood, adding some cinnabar, and then exposing it to the sun for a few days to make an extremely yang item."

"This thing has a certain restraining effect on general evil things."

"But these are just what I have read in books. I cannot guarantee whether they will be effective or not."

After listening to the Taoist's explanation, Gu Nian'an felt that there was a possibility that Sister Red Coffin was the ghost mother, but he couldn't be completely sure.

After all, he would not be surprised if any strange things appeared in this world of Liao Zhai where ghosts and monsters are rampant.

And if Sister Red Coffin is really the ghost mother, then where did the ghost baby go?

That thing is much more difficult to deal with than the ghost mother.

Fortunately, the master and disciple encountered a half-crippled ghost mother this time, if they had encountered a ghost baby.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk”

It is estimated that both the master and his disciples will be wiped out.

However, for the three masters and disciples of Qingyang Temple, this matter has come to an end.

As for whether Sister Red Coffin goes out to seek revenge or to find her child, it has nothing to do with them.

They are just small people, and small people should have the status of small people.

Don't meddle in other people's business. Just living your life peacefully is better than anything else.
