Chapter 710: Resolving knots and resolving obsessions
The reason why everyone in the camp felt that the night suddenly became darker was because the night parade lowered the night curtain.
This is a spell that comes with the Night Patrol Priesthood. It can only be used at night. It can affect the five senses of the people around you, causing them to unknowingly encounter a ghost-like experience:
Obviously there is nothing wrong with his consciousness, etc., but he just can't see clearly and understand the things around him.
Qin Shaoyou did this because he still didn't want to reveal his identity.
For this reason, he did not use mirage beads.
People in the Demon Division of Luocheng City, and even many residents of Luocheng City, all know that when he took office in Mianyuan County, Qin Shaoyou 'borrowed' a large number of supernatural items from the Spiritual Object Room.
Mirage beads are one of them.
If he used it, Zhao Xiaoqi, his night watchmen, and even some better-informed soldiers would probably recognize or notice that something was wrong.
By then, even if these people would not suspect that he was from Xibei, they would know that Qin Shaoyou had returned to Luocheng.
Qin Shaoyou naturally trusts Zhao Xiaoqi and other night watchmen, but the people in the refugee camp are complicated. Although everyone admitted has gone through a round of screening, it is to check whether they have been cursed by voodoo, and whether they are humans or demons.
If there are followers of the Black Lotus who have suppressed their aura and are mingling among the refugees, it will be very difficult to distinguish and catch them.
If Zhao Xiaoqi and others reveal their flaws after recognizing themselves, and are discovered by the lurking Black Lotus Sect followers, and quietly pass on the news, no one can guarantee that those cunning Bodhisattvas and Arhats in the Black Lotus Sect will not
Speculations and doubts.
When it’s time to be cautious, you can’t be reckless.
Under the curtain of night, Qin Shaoyou sighed softly as he looked at the female body with a ferocious expression, roaring and struggling, trying to break away from the bonds of his blood and energy, while protecting the child in his arms for fear of being snatched away.
Turning people into ghosts... This world is so fucking damned!
Seeing the female corpse's obsession and emotions getting the better of her, Qin Shaoyou knew that even if he said something, the other party wouldn't listen.
He simply turned around and ordered: "Monk, where is your iron bowl? Bring it and use it, chant sutras for her to stabilize her mood."
The horse monk said "Hello" and took out a dark iron bowl from the horse's back.
This was the reward he received when he went to Yizhou Demon Suppression Division to report on his duties.
It can be regarded as a supernatural item. It is said that it was once used by a certain Buddhist monk. It can not only help people calm down, but also has the effect of enhancing scriptures.
Even at certain times, it can be used as a weapon or a hidden weapon.
Monk Ma held the iron bowl in his left hand and put his right hand clasped together on his chest. As the blood flowed in, the iron bowl immediately made a crisp "buzz", "buzz" sound.
At the same time, Monk Ma recited scriptures to calm the female corpse's emotions and obsessions.
During this process, Qin Shaoyou was not idle either. He quietly activated the Ten Thousand People Umbrella and let the power of the people's wishes envelope the female corpse.
The power of people's wishes is peaceful and full of affinity, and is most suitable for soothing emotions.
With the efforts of Qin Shaoyou and Ma Monk, the mood of the female corpse quickly returned to normal.
The obsessions above were also suppressed, and they were no longer hostile to Qin Shaoyou and Monk Ma.
However, when she heard two people say that her child was dead, she couldn't accept it.
"I know I'm dead, but my child is still alive. You are lying to me! You are all lying to me! You just want to harm my child. Oh oh oh, baby, don't cry, don't be afraid, with your mother here, absolutely
I won’t allow anyone to hurt you!”
The female corpse's mood became excited again, and her obsession and corpse energy were soaring rapidly, even more than before.
Qin Shaoyou saw that something was wrong. This female corpse was too obsessed with words. Even with the help of iron bowls, scriptures and the Wanmin Umbrella, it was difficult to persuade her.
You have to think of another way.
Since the female corpse's heart and obsession lies with her child, her child must be used to solve the problem.
Although Qin Shaoyou didn't know how to summon spirits, he was surrounded by various talents. He immediately called Ye Xuanyou out and asked, "Can you summon the soul of his child?"
"Sir, look at what you are saying. Isn't it our duty to summon and capture souls? What's more, this child's body is right in front of us, so it's not difficult to summon his soul."
"Then act quickly."
"yes!"
Ye Xuanyou accepted the order, and his figure turned into a puff of smoke and disappeared in front of Qin Shaoyou's eyes.
It's just a pity that Qiu Rong's lost soul cannot be found even by the underworld and the city god.
In all likelihood, it was swallowed by the Fuso ghost tree.
As for the Fusang ghost tree, not long after it was brought back to Jincheng by Zuo Qianhu, the emperor sent someone to escort it to Beijing.
Qin Shaoyou and the others want to help Qiu Rong find her lost soul, but I'm afraid it won't be easy.
Fortunately, Qiurong is now a ghost cultivator and is quite happy every day.
Ye Xuanyou was not bragging. When he returned to Qin Shaoyou's side, he actually had a child in his hand.
Judging from the appearance and body shape, they were exactly the same as the corpse of a child held tightly in the arms of the female corpse.
Of course, people outside the curtain of night saw nothing.
In their eyes, Qin Shaoyou... No, it should be General Xu Qi and his cronies who have been talking to the female corpse.
This confused them very much.
Could it be that Mr. Xu’s solution is to be reasonable?
If this could work, they wouldn't have been without progress just now.
Zhao Xiaoqi was a careful person, so he immediately made a few gestures and arranged for his night watchmen to disperse in all directions, in case the female corpse would escape after Mr. Xu's persuasion failed.
But inside the night curtain, there is another scene:
After the child's soul was brought back to the world by the Night Parade, he saw his mother for the first time.
After death, most of the memories will disappear, and only some memories imprinted deep in the mind will be brought to the soul.
It may be family affection, it may be love, or it may be hatred.
As time goes by, these last memories will eventually be forgotten.
Unless you give birth to obsession and turn into a ghost, you will stay in the human world without leaving the underworld.
For this child, what he remembers most deeply is his parents.
So not only did he recognize the female corpse immediately, he also shouted "Mother" and rushed towards her.
"My child, my child."
The female corpse hurriedly knelt down and wanted to hug him, but then she realized something was wrong.
This child is a soul, and although she is a walking corpse, she has never practiced spiritual practice, so naturally she cannot touch the soul.
So this hug was empty.
The female corpse was stunned, and the first thought that came to her mind was that these people had lied to her again.
But she soon gave up the idea.
Because although she couldn't hold the child in front of her, the special connection between mother and child made her very sure that this was her child and not some false illusion.
But if this is really her child, then what is she holding in her arms?
In a daze, the female corpse felt as if something was broken inside her head.
She lowered her head subconsciously.
This time there was no obsession blocking her eyes, and she could see clearly.
What she was holding in her arms was not a child that could walk, jump, and talk, but a corpse of a child who had been dead for many days, with a bruised complexion and a stiff and cold body.
"How could this happen...how could this happen?"
The female corpse murmured to herself, almost breaking down, unable to believe that this was true.
"After you died, you didn't want to go to the underworld, but insisted on staying and taking care of your child. This was your love for him. But you forgot one thing, there is a difference between yin and yang between humans and ghosts. Unless you are practicing
Otherwise, no one can withstand the erosion of Yang Qi and blood by Yin ghosts..."
Although Qin Shaoyou did not explain clearly how the child died, the female corpse understood it as soon as she heard it.
She knelt down and wanted to hold the child and cry bitterly, but she only hugged herself: "My child, it was my mother who harmed you. It's all my mother's fault..."
"It's not your fault, I can only blame the world."
Qin Shaoyou sighed, and took this opportunity to work with Monk Ma to completely eliminate the obsession on the female corpse and save her.
Once the obsession is gone, the cage on the female corpse will naturally lose its effect.
She fell to the ground with a 'pop', but her soul flew out.
After her soul left her body, the first thing this woman did was hug her child tightly.
Qin Shaoyou sighed: "You can go with peace of mind. If there is an afterlife, join a peaceful world and live a stable life."
The woman took the child and bowed to Mr. Qin.
But they did not leave in a hurry, but made a request: "Sir, my husband is also dead. I dare to ask you to show mercy and call him up so that our family can reunite and go to hell together..."
Qin Shaoyou turned his head and glanced at Ye Xuanyou.
Ye Xuan understood the idea and immediately asked: "What is your husband's name and place of origin? Do you have his belongings on you?"
The woman hurriedly reported her husband's place of origin and name, and pointed to the bundle carried on her body: "There are my husband's clothes in it."
Night Patrol did not waste time, and immediately followed the clues given by the female ghost to find her husband in the underworld.
After a while, Night Parade returned alone.
He handed over his hand and reported to Qin Shaoyou: "Sir, there is no soul of her husband in the underworld."
"Why not?"
"There are three possibilities: either this person is not dead yet; or he is not only dead, but also has his soul scattered; or his soul has been taken away by some powerful demon and evil spirit!"
Qin Shaoyou frowned slightly, turned around and asked the woman, "How did your husband die?"
The woman shook her head: "Actually, I don't know whether my husband is dead or not. My husband was a commander in the border army guarding Qingtang. A few months ago, they received a mission to escort a group of people with the army.
The team went to Qingtang. But after they went there, there was no news. In addition, the Qingtang barbarians came to kill again, so I guessed that he might be dead..."
