Coffin of the Nether World - C39
Hearing Zhou Xingcai’s words, I finally understood. It turned out that Master had saved Zhou Xingcai’s life back then, and as the village elder, Zhou Xingcai had allowed Master to live in the village.
“I also didn’t expect that you would be such a rich person. When I helped you with the divination, wasn’t it wrong for you to give me your own age?” And it’s my fault, I actually chose to believe you, and didn’t even bother to calculate whether what you said was true or false. ”
Zhou Xingcai laughed coldly, and said to his Master: “So what? “No matter what happened in the past, it is still a matter of the past. Right now, I am about to become the richest person, and the Five Ghost Birds’ Wealth Formation is about to be completed, hmph!”
The master yawned and said, “Since I’m here, do you think I’ll let you complete this task? And you don’t know that if it weren’t for me, you would have already died twice. ”
“What do you mean?” Zhou Xingcai didn’t understand what Master said, and neither did I.
“Since you are doing this, you should know about the Demon Tong Chou sealed in the mountain, right? This thing will be able to kill you once, and you always thought that it would be able to help you accomplish your dream of becoming rich, do you know … ”
“Zhou, how dare you!”
The mysterious man roared and interrupted his master, as if he was afraid his master would say what he wanted to say next.
His Master then turned to look at the mysterious person and said: “As a cultivator, you don’t have to painstakingly learn to help others. Instead, for the sake of your own selfish desires, don’t expect me to let you off! Furthermore, these little tricks of yours are just to trick outsiders. The essence of the Five Devils making money is something that since you’re using it, you should know it better than me. ”
“Humph, you sure have a strong tone. Of course I know better than you how much weight I have. Don’t pretend to be a big shot here right now, or else you will lose face later on.”
“Is there something you didn’t tell me?” Zhou Xingcai was not stupid, he had obviously heard that this man still had something that he had not told him.
“Let me tell you, the Five Devils are a demonic method to make money. Simply put, it is to drive ghosts to steal other people’s money, but to drive ghosts is an extremely dangerous thing. If it was that simple, wouldn’t people in the cultivation world become rich?”
“When you first set up the formation, you must have dripped your own blood into it. Hmph, from then on, these five ghosts have been connected to you, relying on your mental and physical strength to survive. Look at you now, you’re in your forties or fifties, yet you’ve managed to forcefully live up to sixty years old, haven’t you noticed that yourself?”
“If this goes on, you’ll be able to get into the coffin in at most five years. At that time, he’ll be able to slowly take away all your money and take the Five Devils to find the next target.”
“And from the looks of it, it’s going to be difficult for him to control the Five Devils. Or else, he wouldn’t drive all of them away, and even drive away a disciple like me who doesn’t know anything.”
“And the most interesting thing is that he still wants to control the demon child Grief, to be the leader of the five ghosts, and then let the five ghosts evolve into Five Children Concentricity Devil s. At that time, the Five Children Concentricity Devil will directly suck you dry, and from several kilometers away from your Lotus Village, don’t even think about surviving.
“Make a fortune?” From the beginning to the end, you’ve been dreaming about your money, that’s all. ”
After master finished speaking, he looked at Zhou Xingcai with a cold smile.
Zhou Xingcai’s face darkened as he slowly turned his head to look at the man.
He said: “He’s right, you are just a puppet from the beginning to the end. If not for the fact that your body is useful to my ghost, I would have already killed you long ago. Do you think you could still live till now?”
At this time, the master actually ignored the two people who were grabbing each other and turned around to look at the woman.
I also saw it clearly. Just as I had guessed, this person was really Widow Li who had disappeared for a long time. I hadn’t thought that he would be buried in a coffin.
“Master, is she alright?”
“I’m not sure yet, but I was so shocked that I had already fainted. Miss Xiaowen, can I trouble you to look after her first? From start to finish, her current condition was caused by Zhou Xingcai and this person.” As she spoke, Master took off the cloth Zhou Xingcai had stuffed into her mouth.
Sister Xiaowen replied “Oh” and went to help Widow Li up.
“So what if you can save her?” That person said, “Just now, I’ve drawn the last soul. Now, the final soul of the Five Devils is in my hands, hehe!”
While speaking, the mysterious man was tossing a bottle in his hand and chuckling to my master.
“You’re still calling it the Five Devils Producing Wealth?” There was a strange smile on his master’s lips as he said: “The Five Devils making money is not some offensive formation, but you are a reduced version of the Five Children Concentricity Devil, if I am to die I remember it correctly. This thing is forbidden by the law, once it is used, everyone will be executed, what’s called the ‘Five Child Blood Evil’, right?”
“Humph!” It seems that you know quite a lot, but you will have to pay the price for knowing too much today. Do you think that the Five Child Blood Evil can only be used to refine it after forty-nine days, so I didn’t send it to deal with you right now? ”
“I have long prepared something that could allow the fifth son Blood Evil to quickly reveal its bloodthirsty nature. Today, don’t even think about leaving!”
Suddenly, from the side of the ground, a “bang bang bang” sound rang out. I opened my Nether Path’s eyes and saw four ghosts of different ages suddenly appear beside him!
At this moment, I don’t know if this is the Five Devils making money or if it is the so-called fifth son Blood Evil that my master mentioned just now. In my eyes, these things are all called Ghost Infant s or perverts!
The younger one looked like a baby, while the older one was around three to four years old. But none of them came close to us. These four Ghost Infant bared their fangs at us, as if they wanted to eat us alive.
I looked at the four ghosts, trying to see if I could spot the one I hadn’t even looked at, but I couldn’t tell.
His Master had just said that all of Widow Li’s possessions were caused by Zhou Xingcai’s greed, which meant that the oldest three-four year old ghost was very likely the son of Widow Li who had mysteriously died in the well.
And it was because of the death of her son that Widow Li began to lose her mind in the village, becoming what everyone called a lunatic.
Because I couldn’t see the man’s face, I didn’t know if he was the old man or not. If it really was him, even I wouldn’t be able to imagine what kind of ghastly appearance I would have. It probably wouldn’t be much better than the Zhou Li who was kneeling with his head lowered right now.
“There are four of them. Look carefully, this is the fifth one.”
After saying that, the man placed the bottle in his hand into the last unbroken jar at the back.
In a situation that none of us noticed, he actually took out a blade from his waist and slashed across Zhou Xingcai’s thigh.
Ah!
Zhou Xingcai screamed in pain, he hugged his leg for a moment and crouched down, blood flowing all over the place.
“Father!”
Zhou Li was obviously frightened, he went up and immediately untied his own belt, tying it tightly around Zhou Xingcai’s thighs to help him stop the bleeding.
Zhou Xingcai’s entire body was trembling, he could not say a single word, and only breathed heavily.
His Master frowned, obviously angry.
The mysterious man said evilly, “I’m sorry, but my fifth ghost needs some fresh food. As he spoke, he dripped some of the blood on the blade into that jar.”
“Bam!” There was another crack.
I didn’t expect it to be so fast!
“The fifth ghost!” Hehe, the one with the surname Li, go ahead and die. As long as you all are dead, no one will know what happened here tonight! “
