51 Granny Ghost

r body stained red with blood. He walked stiffly towards me, his voice sounding like my brother's: "Xiao Qiao, don't come closer~~"I am surrounded by a bone-chilling cold. This kind of ghost is beyond..."The old master said faintly, 'They've heard me arrive at the window. I'll ask them to come over later.' "

At this point, my curiosity had surpassed my fear. I wondered who this female ghost was and why she knew my name.

My brother couldn't hold back any longer. He shouted directly at the old man: "Grandpa, we didn't mean to do this. Someone locked us in here... Please forgive us this once, we didn't hear anything!"

I heard Grandpa scold, "You stinky kid," and then there was a soft giggle.

After a while, the old master said, "Come down."

Below is also a tomb, the air is heavy and stifling. The patriarch sits in his coffin inside the tomb, with a beautiful woman nestled in his arms.

That gaze held a profound love and longing. Her time seemed to freeze at the moment of her death. Perhaps her body had long since turned to dust, but her affection for Grandpa remained undiminished.

My brother was stunned. He stammered, "T-that... that beautiful lady, why would you want to… cling onto my grandpa like this…"

“Little beast!” The old man roared angrily, “This is your great-grandmother!”

I looked closely, and the woman had a long, jet-black braid. Her hairstyle resembled that of a well-bred young lady from the old times. Her smile was gentle and captivating, without the slightest hint of the sluggishness and lifelessness one would expect from a ghost. Her bright eyes sparkled with life, making her appear as real and vibrant as if she had never passed away.

Only when I got closer did I realize that this ghost wasn't only visible and touchable to my grandfather. We could all see her, her body was real, even plump with flesh and blood.

Inside her coffin lay a finely crafted seven-tiered bronze pagoda, each tier adorned with eight copper bells the size of melon seeds. The workmanship was exquisite.

"Bro... isn't this tower..." I pointed at the tower and asked.

The previous sorcerer had sent Hou Shaowen to my house asking for an octagonal glazed bronze pagoda. Could this be it Jiang Qiyun said that the pagoda was used for refining souls, and it turns out my grandfather hid it here!

Grandfather glared at us displeased, we seemed to have disrupted the elder's affairs. We lowered our heads and dared not speak. Great-grandmother had passed away many years ago, but I never expected Grandfather to use this artifact to bring her back to life in this way.

"Little Qiao…" The female ghost softly emerged from the coffin, "You've grown so much… Do you still cry when you sleep at night When you were little, your crying was adorable."

Originally, the gentle aunt when I was little wasn't a nanny, but my grandmother.

Grandpa sighed: "It seems the secret is about to be revealed...our time together is coming to an end... Once a person dies, all past memories fade. Where will I find you then..."

"Perhaps we've transgressed too many taboos, and will both be scattered to the winds" The female ghost laughed, returning to Grandpa's embrace. "It would be quite alright if we both perished together, no one would be left burdened."

The contrast between the grandfather's aged face and the female ghost's delicate beauty was striking, we couldn't bear to look directly at them, so we could only huddle aside and listen silently.

"Xiao Qiao, for the ancestral shrine's ceremony on September 9th, you should go as the acting head of the family." Grandpa suddenly said.

"Me! No way, no way, I'm definitely going to lose out!" I quickly shook my head.

“Well… Yun Fan, you rascal, as acting head of the family, you and Xiao Qiao should go together.” The grandfather frowned. “I don’t trust anyone else; I’m worried it might be harmful to Xiao Qiao.”

"No problem! But you have to answer a few questions of mine first." My brother nodded, not worried at all about being questioned by others.

"What do you want to know" Grandfather frowned, clearly unwilling to say much.

"What's wrong with Chen Su Xin Is she from the Lu family Last night, she floated into my room and almost scared me to death!" My brother said with lingering fear.

The grandfather frowned and said, "She's out of her body. We've always used the red thread to press down on her neck and stabilize her soul. Last night, I don't know what happened to this child, she took off the red thread herself..."

I bit my lip, remembering last night's bath. I had casually said something like: "It's so long, isn't it a bother" Apparently, this little girl is in her rebellious phase. Hearing me say that, she tossed aside what the elders had told her and took it off herself.

"There's one more thing...Grandpa, can my dad recover" That's what I care about most.

This time, it was the old female ghost who replied to me: "Back then, Chengtao took this pagoda away, wanting your mother to continue living. But his magic power wasn't enough, so he made some deals with the Ghost King. At that time...it was probably his own choice, to avoid becoming the Ghost King's puppet."

“The Sealing Evil Array is crucial. If Huangdao Village opens the Gates of Hell, the realms of Yin and Yang will be in utter chaos. This time, our Mu family’s stance during the Venerable God Ritual is to cooperate wholeheartedly, providing both manpower and artifacts.” The Patriarch stated.

My brother nodded. "Grandpa, you tell us how to get out, it's getting late, and we wouldn't want to disturb your rest."

"There are nine flying stars in the upper ear chamber. If you press them according to the nine palaces of your birth year, you can get out." Even grandpa was too lazy to explain more to us.

My older brother strode forward and gave our great-grandmother a big hug. A glimmer of surprise appeared in her eyes, "If we had known Grandma lived here, we would have come to visit every day." He said respectfully.

I also hugged my great-grandmother. Her body was ice-cold, just like Jiang Qiyun's.

Grandma smiled and shook her head. "You shouldn't come too often, although I do miss you all very much. Spending time with me will deplete your yang energy... Your grandpa is special to me, so he won't be affected."

The Nine Star Flying Star Chart is a very important theory in geomancy. This year, the White one Greedy Wolf star is located in the center palace. I followed the order and went through it once, and I vaguely heard the sound of a mechanism opening.

As we emerged from the underground, just as we breathed a sigh of relief, we saw a dark shadow moving in the distance. My brother, like a wolf seeing a rabbit, sprang after it.

"Damn it, stand up for me! You want to lock me in here, there's no way!" My brother shouted as he chased after them.

I watched my brother's back in silence, turned around and closed the wooden door, just as I was about to stand up straight, a hand suddenly covered my mouth and nose, and then everything went black—I was bagged!

A heavy blow landed on the back of my neck, making me scream in pain. I cursed inwardly, wondering who this idiot was and how someone with such terrible skills could dare to kidnap me!

"Well, are you dizzy" a strange male voice sounded.

"It should be...run, it'll be bad when Mu Yunfan comes back." That voice was Mu Yunliang!

What's this guy trying to do! I bit my lip and kept quiet, feigning unconsciousness.

I was lifted up and carried toward the back mountain. Then, that unfamiliar male voice said to get a car, telling Mu Yunliang to keep an eye on me.

Silence fell for a moment, and I heard Mu Yunliang's breathing gradually becoming heavier. Through the sack, his breath lingered before me...his emotions."My lord, the shaman is so busy. You just wait here. He said he'd be back as soon as possible. Hee hee, what a loving couple…"Slap! She was slapped by her cousin again.I peeked out at the...
