I was forced to cultivate immortality when I just wanted to lie down

Chapter 124 Bai Xiangu, Madam Xu

"Since you want to confess, then tell us everything about how you acted as an immortal, how you took people's lives, and how you deceived people!"

Seeing that Xu Qing had the intention to kill, the female ghost's body became unstable and she had to tell the truth.

As for the specific details of this matter, we have to start from the twelfth month of last year.

At that time, Chen Mancang used the nightmare technique to bewitch a person in Qushui Village, and was happened to be seen by the female ghost in red.

This female ghost was not a proper immortal. She had just taken over the shrine of Qushui Village, which only had incense but no gods or immortals.

However, if you want to become an immortal, it is not enough to have a shrine tablet. You also have to make a request and find other immortals to act as guarantors.

In order to justify her actions, the female ghost in red hooked up with the Beixian Hall in another village.

People say ghost stories are endless. This female ghost described herself as extremely pitiful, with a gambling father, a mother who died young, a brother who was seriously ill and died young, and a beautiful woman with a tragic fate. She was already broken.
After just a few words, she managed to fool those old ghosts into becoming confused and making them testify for her in a daze, guaranteeing that she had become an immortal in Qushui Village.

Xu Qing had seen dogs licking dogs before, but this was the first time he had heard of an old ghost licking ghost.

Holding the talisman to ward off evil spirits in his hand, Xu Qing was like the King of Hell appearing in the world. In front of all the immortals, he continued to judge the case in the underworld and interrogated the female ghost in front of him.

The sad immortals around wanted to step forward to stop it, but were scared back by Xuan Yu's eyes.

Seeing this, several gray fairies pulled the broken sad fairy back.

"My dear, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me this time."

With the appearance of the Sad Immortal, the female ghost seemed to feel better again. She raised her chin, and her ghost eyes became charming again.

Xu Qing narrowed his eyes and decisively slapped the talisman in his hand. The next moment, the ghost girl's charming eyes became clear.

After the shrill scream, the female ghost continued to confess honestly.

After becoming the Sad Fairy, the female ghost did no good deeds. She only made promises to the villagers in their dreams at night, saying that as long as they offered her offerings, gold, silver, treasures, luxury cars and beautiful women would no longer be a luxury.

At first, the villagers believed it, and the incense offerings to the female ghost really became very popular for a while. But after a few months, the villagers found that their wishes had not been fulfilled, so they stopped offering sacrifices to the female ghost.

The female ghost's appetite has been whetted, and now that the incense has suddenly disappeared, how can she feel balanced?
If you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust!

That day, Chen Mancang used the nightmare technique to lure a child out of the village and turned him into a lamb.

The female ghost in red not only watched and did nothing, she even followed them secretly. While thinking about how to take revenge on the villagers, she also had evil thoughts about the lambs.

Even without incense, she still has to go on with this horrible life. Since the villagers don't offer her sacrifices, she will eat human essence and swallow human souls, and her Taoism skills will still increase!

So is there any way to eat the sheep and harm the villagers at the same time?

The female ghost held it in for the entire journey, and finally let out all the evil thoughts in her heart.

She came up with a win-win idea, which was to become a broker.

What is a broker? It's a middleman who helps people find jobs.

It just so happened that she was familiar with the old nun in the Temple of Childbirth. She knew that the temple was in a hurry to have a child, and the lambs here from the shepherd were just the right supply, right?

The female ghost was delighted. After thinking about it all the way, she finally came up with a way to get the sheep for free while also causing trouble for the villagers.

After hearing what the female ghost said, the shepherd made a promise on the spot, just like a client looking for a brothel meets a prostitute. He gave the female ghost a sheep as an introduction fee.

The matchmaker ghost, the shepherd boy, and the temple of childbirth.
This entire black industry chain was established by the female ghost in front of us.

In the open space in the forest, all the immortals were silent.

The red-clothed female ghost is still tempting Xu Qing:

"Without my help, the Temple of Sending Children wouldn't have asked the old shepherd for lambs, and the old shepherd wouldn't have kidnapped so many lambs. Without me, you wouldn't have done so many good deeds today, nor would you have earned so many incense offerings."

The female ghost didn't notice Xu Qing's increasingly gloomy look.

She was not trying to deceive Xu Qing, she was clearly accumulating anger for the zombie in front of her.

"The incense offered by the spirit beast is not even enough to fill the gaps between our teeth. If the villagers don't have any troubles, why would they think of us immortals?"

“Only when the time comes will they offer us incense and offerings.”

"Shut up!"

Xu Qing reached out and grabbed the ghost girl's neck, then looked around at the surrounding immortals.

Huang Laoxu's body trembled, and he was the first to speak: "What nonsense! What is an immortal? Only those who accumulate merits and go out to help the world are immortals."

"According to the rules passed down by our ancestors, even a disciple can only receive enough money to fill his stomach after a mission. If even a disciple can do this, how can we immortals go against the laws of nature and our ancestors and do such despicable things?"

At this time, a python fairy who had been secretly observing the situation at the scene came out from the forest.

A fishy wind and a sinister fog filled the air, and the white python uttered a clear female voice:
"Raising the enemy to gain power and deceiving others to gain divine power are the actions of lewd temples and lewd worshippers. If you are not afraid of losing your past virtues overnight, you can give it a try."

"Bai Xian Gu (Bai Xian Gu)."

All the immortals turned around to pay their respects.

Xu Qing glanced sideways and saw a giant snake-like creature lurking in the mist. When he looked at the white python, the other was also looking at him.

Two lantern-like vertical pupils paused on him for a moment, and Bai Xiangu's tone became noticeably softer.

"Thank you, fellow Daoist, for eliminating the villains and saving these people. Thank you also for helping us investigate the matter and uncover this scum of the immortal family."

Xu Qing's face, which had been full of resentment, relaxed a little. Xuan Yu, who was standing up for him not far away, was tense all over, looking as if he was facing a great enemy.

"This is the order that my Cat Fairy Hall has taken on. My Cat Fairy Hall will do its best to solve it. There is no need to thank me, fellow Daoist." Xu Qing also felt the oppression brought by the Python Immortal in front of him, but he did not follow the other party's words and accept the good guy hat that the other party put on him.

It’s hard to be a good person these days, and it’s also hard to be a good immortal.

Bai Xiangu was silent for a moment, and then disappeared into the forest accompanied by thick fog.

Before leaving, a voice that could not be distinguished between joy and anger was heard:

"I am practicing in Baicao Cave on Yuehua Mountain. If you have time in the future, you can come to visit my Baixian Hall."

The mountain breeze blew and the fog in the forest dissipated.

Xu Qing retracted his gaze and looked at the trembling female ghost in his arms.

He let go of the ghost girl's neck, grabbed her hair, and dragged her towards the stream.

When they saw Huang Laoxu and the crows from Luanshi Mountain following out of the forest, the other immortals looked at each other and followed silently.

The female ghost begged for mercy and cursed at others, until Xu Qing dragged him to the stream, and she could no longer control the fear in her heart.

"What do you want to do to me?"

Seeing Xu Qing piling the sheepskins shed by the villagers next to her, the female ghost began to tremble.

Xu Qing borrowed Huang Laoxu's pipe, and a little smoldering fire fell, and hundreds of sheepskins began to burn.

After a moment, the shrill screams faded away, but the piled sheepskins still had not burned out.

"He who sows the seeds shall reap the fruits. He who sees the shaving of his head shall be shaved."

Xu Qing looked at the burning flames and suddenly said these words.

Huang Laoxu caught the pipe thrown from the air and turned around to say, "Did you hear that? From now on, don't even think about those crooked and unorthodox things. We immortals should act like immortals!"

The voice and appearance of the female ghost were still in front of their eyes. All the immortals took it as a warning and nodded in agreement.

Huang Laoxu nodded in satisfaction, but when he turned around, Xu Qing and Xuan Yu were no longer behind him.

The sun sets and the crows dim in the old trees.

Xu Qing put on his gorgeous robe again and rode his colorful horse to the outskirts of Huangping Township.

After putting away the five-colored horse, a black cat followed him and spoke in human language, "When do you plan to go in, Xu Xianjia?" "Wait until dark." Xu Qing smiled faintly and said, "The evil spirit in the Songzi Temple is not afraid of dark, because it is at its strongest at that time."

"We are immortals, and we are not afraid of the dark either. When the time comes, it will depend on who has the stronger energy."

After saying that, Xu Qing raised his hand and blew a whistle. The next moment, the black crow circling in the air fell down.

"Xu Wazi, once you enter Huangping Township and walk ten miles in, you'll find the Temple of Childbirth. Have you thought it through?"

Xu Qing chuckled, "They're just some rats hiding in the sewers. If they were truly capable, why would they be so secretive and use the pretense of delivering a child to murder others?"

He might still be wary of people of the righteous path, but if it is an evil path...
"Master, I want to trouble you with something."

"Just say it." The old crow was still open-minded.

Xu Qing took out a wolf-hair brush, drew a bird-eye talisman and stuck it on his forehead. Then he pinched his fingers and chanted an incantation, and used a secret technique to drive away the mountain on the black crow.

"This is the Bird's Eye Technique. Within half a day, I can use this technique to see everything that Lord Crow sees. Afterwards, I will go to the Temple of Sending Children. Please trouble Lord Crow to act as a scout in the sky to help us prevent those evil thieves from escaping."

Black Crow nodded, then asked with some confusion, "Why does the talisman brush you used to draw the talisman just now have the aura of Huang Laoxu?"

"."

When Xu Qing was wondering how to respond, Xuan Yu beside him subconsciously said, "Aren't human wolf-hair brushes made from the tail hair of yellow foxes? Hasn't Master Xiao heard of this?"

The black crow suddenly realized: "No wonder Huang Laoxu's tail is bald. I asked him what happened to his tail before, and he said it was time for him to shed his fur."

Xu Qing was about to open his mouth to explain, but the next moment he heard Black Crow say:
"It turns out that it gave its shed fur to Xu Wazi."

"."

Xu Qing silently took back the words.

Crows are noisy by nature. Even if they become spiritual and can speak human language, they still cannot change their chatterbox habit.

It is getting dark now, and it is not time to add lights yet.

Black Crow stood on Xu Qing's shoulder and chattered non-stop.

"Xu boy, do you want crow feathers? Crow feathers often fall on my Rocky Mountain. If you want, I can help you keep an eye out for them."

"By the way, has Xu Wazi ever been married at his age?"

"I remember there was a female spirit medium disciple who was quite good-looking. However, secular people were somewhat wary of spirit medium disciples, so she was still unmarried in her twenties. If Xu Wazi is interested..."

Xu Qing responded to Black Crow's words in a disjointed manner. When the black crow on his shoulder and the black cat beside him completely blended into the night, he stopped talking.

"Master, thank you for your help."

The black crow flapped its wings and flew high into the sky.

The bird-eye rune on Xu Qing's forehead flickered. When he closed his eyes, his perspective shifted from the ground to the sky, and the sparse lights of Huangping Township were faintly visible.

Most rural residents are frugal, so the lights are not as dense as those near the river at night.

But about ten miles north of Huangping Township, there is a brightly lit temple standing halfway up the mountain.

Xu Qing opened his eyes, and the view he was looking down at disappeared, leaving only the country dirt road winding into the night.

Beside him, Xuan Yu was looking up at his face in a trance.

Xu Qing knew what Xuan Yu was thinking.

He reached out and removed the bird-eye symbol from his forehead, then leaned over and placed it on the black cat's head.

Xuan Yu opened his eyes wide and stared at the yellow talisman on his forehead.

"Close your eyes, I can walk with Xuanyu Xianjia in my arms."

Xuan Yu looked thoughtful when he heard that, but before he could respond, he felt his body lighten and a pair of big hands picked him up by the waist.

The texture of the cloak was dense and smooth to the touch. Xuan Yu struggled for a moment and was unwilling to move anymore.

It lowered its head to look at the wide sleeves of Xu Qingqing covering its body.

The red cuffs were embroidered with phoenixes, and the stitches were finely embroidered on the silk. When it touched the body, it felt as smooth as fat, making it want to lower its head and scratch it.

Xu Qing seemed to know what it was thinking. He raised his hand and flicked his sleeve, gently kissing it twice.

Seeing the cat in his arms close its eyes and lie quietly in the crook of his arms, Xu Qing's mouth corners unconsciously rose.

This mountain-driving technique is really good!

After finding out the location of the Songzi Temple through the bird's eye method, Xu Qing walked over there slowly, holding the cat.

Many people in the mountains keep dogs, and Huangping Township is no exception.

But today Huangping Township is unusually quiet.

When Xu Qing passed by, the alert guard dogs seemed to have taken a mute drug, with their mouths tightly closed, for fear of making any noise.

In the past, Xu Qing would probably have to follow the methods in the Thirty-Six Corpse-Driving Spells and chant the Mute Dog Spell to achieve such an effect. But now, with the blessing of the Cat Fairy Hall, ordinary animals would not dare to offend easily.

Feeling more and more incense coming, Xu Qing was lost in thought.

During the day, he sent his disciples from all over to send the villagers back home. Now it seems that these people have returned home, so there are so many incense sticks suddenly gathering here.

Xuanyu also sensed something. It opened its eyes and was about to speak, but found that the two had already arrived in front of the Songzi Temple.

Xu Qing activated his Qi-gazing technique, and various mists intertwined above the Songzi Temple. Two of the mists were the strongest, one was the white scent of incense, and the other was the dark purple scent of resentment.

These resentful and evil auras are different from those on General Chang.

The Chisha will be dark red, and the purple one will be
Purple represents infant, and these are all infant evil spirits.

I knocked on the temple door and heard the voice of an old nun.

"It's late at night. I wonder which distinguished guest is visiting? If you want to pay your respects, please come back tomorrow."

Xu Qing was about to speak, but then he remembered that he was a man.

It was a bit awkward for a grown man to visit a nunnery in the middle of the night.

Xu Qing pondered for a moment, then patted the cat in his arms.

Xuan Yu understood immediately, and he opened his lips slightly, and a voice as clear as a little girl's rang out.

"I have come here to offer my incense, but unfortunately I was delayed on the way. Now that it is late, I hope you will open the temple gate and allow me to stay for one night."

There was silence for a moment inside the temple gate, and then the sound of the bolt being removed and the door being opened was heard.

Xu Qing and Xuan Yu stared at the temple door intently. They heard a creaking sound, and a gap opened at the temple door that was only wide enough for one person to pass through. A shiny head popped out from inside.

It was dark, and the old nun looked around. After seeing Xu Qing in a red wedding dress, she opened the temple door again.

"Ma'am, please come in."

Xu Qing nodded without answering, and walked into the temple gate with a tense face.

"Madam, are you here to have a child too?" The old nun led the way and asked as they walked.

"Yeah." Xu Qing was very frugal with his words.

"Madam, do you plan to go to the temple today, or stay overnight and worship tomorrow?"

"Today is the day for incense offering. Please take me to the main hall for a tour."

The old nun looked at Xu Qing in surprise when she heard this. Why did this lady's voice suddenly become so deep?
