After the ghost-hunting master descended the mountain, his fame spread throughout the capital.

Everyone in Changling City knew that the eldest daughter of the Minister of Rites was born with a tragic fate. She was sent to Nanchansi Temple at birth and raised there for eighteen years.
The temple doesn't chant Buddhist scriptures; it only teaches how to catch ghosts and draw talismans.
At first, her family would visit her, but later her mother even forgot to inform them when she gave birth to her youngest daughter; the prince she was betrothed to since birth also turned around and asked to marry her sister.
The master waved his sleeve: "Disciple, your karmic entanglement—bah, your karmic entanglement has come to an end. Go down the mountain."
Everyone laughed at the eldest daughter of the Minister's mansion, calling her a charlatan.
Until the palace banquet, a hundred ghosts roamed the night, and red lanterns turned to blood.
The crowd saw the woman holding a bone flute, with cinnabar as a blade, capable of sealing a soul with a single flute.
From then on, the name Jiang Dusheng resounded throughout Changling City.
That day, my younger sister rushed to me with tears in her eyes, saying, "Sister, please don't blame me..."
Jiang Dusheng glanced at her indifferently:
"I guide the living, the dead, the afflicted, the souls, and all living beings, but I will never guide mindless idiots."
She prided herself on being able to predict the future, but she failed to foresee that jinx.
Originally, I wanted to borrow his pure yang evil energy to prolong my life.
On the night of their success, she packed her small bundle, ready to flee, but he trapped her before the cinnabar table, his eyes filled with madness and obstinacy:
"Jiang Dusheng, you save all living beings, could you—save me too?"
"I come from the ashes, not seeking Buddhahood, but only asking you to guide me through the rest of my life."
Later, when his robes were stained with blood, he whispered a desperate murmur in her ear: "Jiang Dusheng, you calculated everything under heaven, but did you ever foresee that I would be your karmic calamity?"
If I cannot earn a place in your heart, I am willing to... be a ghost for eternity, sealed away by you.
