"It's an old friend." Hua Xi's gaze swept across the group of white souls.
They all gathered together and stood in the corner, afraid of the dazzling starlight.
They are just low-level ghosts. They are not very powerful, so they are sent out by leeches to trick the passing humans into coming in.
Those spirits are all women, so the legend of female ghosts has been very popular in the past dynasties.
Because it is by no means groundless.
Zi Shi and the others also came in afterwards. As soon as he saw those souls, Zi Shi was also very scared. Thinking of his mother, he plucked up the courage.
"Mother, I am Zi Shi, are you here?" Zi Shi looked at those souls and asked sadly.
The souls looked at them blankly, and seemed to have no reaction.
Meng Xiaoling floated in lightly and said strangely: "Sisters, Xiaoling is back! You don't have to be afraid. The old monster has been killed by them, and you are free!"
After hearing her words, those souls had a little reaction and looked at each other, but didn't know what to say.
"Mother! I am Zi Shi!" Zi Shi still refused to give up and approached those souls step by step.
Suddenly, in the corner, a soul stood up slowly, with a thin figure, and murmured: "Zi Shi?"
Zi Shi looked over and wiped the tears from his eyes so that he could see better.
"Mom!" she choked and rushed over.
Sun opened her hand, but could only watch helplessly as Zi Shi passed through her body.
Zi Shi turned around and knelt on the ground, "I haven't been back for so many years. I don't know if my mother will suffer like this again."
Mrs. Sun shook her head and said kindly: "Death is like a lamp going out. There is nothing you can do about what happens after death."
Zi Shi sniffed. Mother and daughter were reunited, and naturally they had endless things to say. But Sun paused for a moment, then looked up at Hua Xi: "Who did you say you were looking for when you came in just now?"
"Zhao Ke." Hua Xi said.
"You are..." Mrs. Sun looked at her, very strange, they had never seen her before.
"Fifteen years ago, someone took a little girl away from the Zhao family..."
Before he finished speaking, a huddled soul behind Mr. Sun suddenly stood up with a hiss.
"Baby! My baby!"
The light of the stars is very bright, and each of those souls is illuminated very clearly.
This was the first time Hua Xi saw Zhao Ke. Her pale face, deep-set eye sockets, and disheveled hair were terrifying. However, when he looked at her, there was warmth in his eyes that could not be ignored.
"My child, my baby..." She walked towards Hua Xi step by step.
Jia Ruo stood in front of her, but Hua Xi gently pushed him away, allowing Zhao Ke to walk straight in front of her.
"I..." She came to apologize for Dugu Feng. The crimes committed fifteen years ago were all caused by her.
The child died tragically, but she survived.
Today, she was asked to kneel down to apologize to Zhao Ke, and she did not complain.
"When you grow up, in fifteen years, I know you will be very beautiful." However, Zhao Ke looked at her lovingly, raised his hand, and gently stroked Hua Xi's cheek.
Her hands were cold and without any warmth.
Zi Shi stood up and said, "Cousin, Hua Xi..."
Hua Xi raised her hand gently to stop her from speaking, and then said to Zhao Ke: "I have worried you for so many years."
If ghosts could shed tears, Zhao Ke would be in tears right now.
