The water ghost's neck was immediately bitten off by Qingli, and the yin energy in his body disappeared in an instant like snow meeting the sun.

Zheng Que was stunned. Qingli's head was not under his control. It was Qingli who moved her hands... her head!

His mind raced as he looked at the water ghost that he had hung in the air. The hemp rope around its neck tightened rapidly under his control, like a rope saw. In the blink of an eye, he had strangled the water ghost's entire neck.

The moment the head fell, the yin energy of the body dissipated. As the headless corpse fell, the head and body turned into clear water and quickly merged into the well and disappeared.

Zheng Que withdrew both arms from the well at the same time. With his right hand, he pulled up a dying girl, while with his left hand, he pinched a water ghost with an unidentified face.

The girl's face was pale and her body was soaked. Her eyes were closed and she was unconscious.

The water ghost was still struggling desperately, with a look of resentment between its brows. However, after it escaped from the well water, its strength was obviously greatly reduced, and it was even weaker than an ordinary ghost in the second level of [Tongue-Pulling Prison]. It was unable to break free from Zheng Que's hands.

Zheng Que quickly put the girl on the ground, and then repeated the same trick. The hemp rope dropped from mid-air and instantly strangled the neck of the remaining water ghost.

The rope tightened, hanging up the water ghost, as if it were a sandbag suspended in the air. Zheng Que's fist smashed hard at the water ghost.

Bang bang bang!
After three consecutive punches, the water ghost's head tilted and its entire head fell off its neck.

The evil energy that wrapped around his body began to dissipate rapidly as if a switch had been pressed.

The water ghost's body turned into clear water and sank into the mud.

In the blink of an eye, the remaining three water ghosts were all dealt with!

Zheng Que took a deep breath. There were four water ghosts in total, all of them were in the second level of [Tongue-Pulling Prison]. Under normal circumstances, it would be very difficult for him to fight against even one of them. However, under the effect of [Spirit Descent Technique], these water ghosts were no match for him at all.

More importantly, during the "spirit descent", he does not need to use spiritual blood to directly hurt the ghosts!
[Spiritual Descent Technique] is really useful!

While thinking, Zheng Que looked at the unconscious girl lying on the ground.

The girl had thick bones and slightly thick lips, and looked quite similar to Cui Fugui. She was Cui Fugui's daughter, Cui Nier. At this moment, her chest had stopped moving and she was completely motionless. It was obvious that her condition was critical.

Zheng Que knew in his heart that although Cui Ni'er had been rescued from the well by him, she had been drowning for some time and was estimated to be no longer breathing. If she was not treated quickly, she would probably die.

So, he quickly walked to Cui Ni'er, pushed her body up, made her lie on her side, and passed a trace of spiritual power into her body, draining out the well water that she had just choked on.

"Cough cough cough... cough cough..."

Soon, Trinier burst into a violent coughing fit, and clear water mixed with mucus kept coming out of the corners of her mouth. Her breathing and heartbeat gradually recovered.

Zheng Que observed from the side and confirmed that the other party was no longer in danger of death. Then he said to the person behind him, "Uncle Cui, this time it was four water ghosts causing trouble, and they have all been dealt with now."

"Your daughter is fine now. She just needs to rest well..."

Before he could finish his words, he suddenly saw Cui Fugui lying on the ground unconscious at some point.

Zheng Que frowned and immediately stood up to check on Cui Fugui. After a quick inspection, he found that Cui Fugui was fine. It seemed that he had just fainted due to some shock...

Zheng Que turned his head and glanced at Qingli's head on his neck, and immediately said, "Qingli, he fainted from frightening you."

Qingli snorted coldly and was about to speak when Zheng Que had already cast a strange and complicated spell.

The [Spiritual Descent Technique] was lifted in an instant.

Qingli rolled down from Zheng Que's shoulder like a ripe fruit, and regained its shape in mid-air. However, the Yin energy around her had become much thinner. The female dancer was extremely weak at this moment and could not utter a word.

Zheng Que did not delay and immediately used the [Ghost Controlling Technique] to take it into his palm.

Then he moved Cui Fugui and his daughter into the house separately.

He found a shoulder pole to replace the broken door bolt, closed the gate, and then climbed over the wall to leave.

※※※The golden sun sets in the west, and the reflected light of dusk coats the entire town with a thin layer of gold.

As dusk fell, Zheng Que returned to his home and closed the door.

He walked to the bed and sat down, habitually placed his shoes, one right side up and one inside out, and immediately began to practice.

I just killed four water ghosts, and I need to quickly improve Qingli's cultivation.

As the technique was practiced, he absorbed more and more Yin energy into his body.

When he opened his eyes again, Zheng Que saw the familiar underworld.

[Book of Life and Death], like before, continued to absorb the black energy emerging from between his eyebrows.

Zheng Que looked at the volume in front of him and saw four more names on it.

"...He Dazhu. Birthplace: Tuzhou, Dali Dynasty... Life span: seven years, eight months, and two days. He drowned at 3:30 pm on the morning of the 11th."

"...Li Gen'er. Birthplace: Tuzhou, Dali Dynasty... Life span: eight years, eleven months, and twenty-seven days. Died by drowning at the hour of the Chou."

"...Liu Ya. Birthplace: Tuzhou, Dali Dynasty... Lifespan: nine years, four months, and fifteen days. Died by drowning at the beginning of the morning."

"...Hu's second daughter. Birthplace: Tuzhou, Dali Dynasty... Life span: nine years and six months, died by drowning at 1:05 pm."

Looking at the records of these four names, Zheng Que nodded slightly.

He felt that the appearance and voices of these four water ghosts were somewhat familiar.

Now that he thinks about it carefully, it seems that it was those children he caught a glimpse of out of the corner of his eye on the day when he had just successfully become a disciple on his way home.

At that time, the four water ghosts were standing outside the courtyard wall of Zhao Laoer's house. They had not appeared for the next few days, but this time they appeared at the Cui family's house. They must have taken a fancy to the Cui family's well, and then everything happened...

Thinking of this, Zheng Que did not delay and released Qingli immediately.

He loosened his hand, and a flash of blood escaped and landed in the hall, revealing the figure of the woman hanging.

Just like the previous times he came in, Qingli stood there with a dazed look and distracted eyes.

Zheng Que moved quickly, immediately raising his hand with the word "Ling" on it and pointing it at Qingli.

The next moment, in Zheng Que's vision, the originally calm Yin energy in Qingli's body began to boil and then surged wildly like bamboo shoots emerging from the ground in spring!

The raging Yin energy wrapped around the white-dressed, black-haired woman, and she spun rapidly, transforming into a huge vortex funnel in the blink of an eye.

Qingli's originally hazy consciousness suddenly came to her senses. After realizing she was in the underworld, she immediately knelt down and saluted: "Commoner, I pay my respects to you, my Lord!"

As she spoke, she suddenly realized that her strength was growing!

She was immediately overjoyed.

It seems that it was the same as last time. As long as I kill another ghost, the adult in the hall will reward me with the ghost's yin energy!

I really have great luck!
snort!
That human kid is so lazy!
As a cultivator, you don't kill the monsters properly and delay my improvement of cultivation. This is simply treasonous and you deserve to go to the eighteenth level of hell!
Suppressing the excitement in her heart, Qingli kowtowed hurriedly and said, "Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir!"

"Your Excellency is perceptive, upright, just, and impartial. You uphold justice and uphold the truth. You are honest and just. You are fair and impartial..."

For a moment, Qingli was full of flattery, but what she said was exactly the same as last time.

Zheng Que listened for a long time and quickly determined that Qingli only used these few words to flatter...
