Chapter 191 Imprisoning the Ghost Messenger
Li Xuan was particularly sensitive to the words "ghost messenger," and thus firmly remembered this character who appeared for only a few minutes.

Seeing Huang Yongfa's tense expression, he softened his tone and said, "Although you were a bit unruly before you turned twenty, that's normal youthful rebellion, nothing to worry about. Since you turned twenty, you've been doing good deeds, helping wandering ghosts fulfill their wishes in the mortal world so they can be reincarnated, appeasing their resentment, and avoiding trouble. That's already very good."

Huang Yongfa's curiosity was piqued, and he said, "You've investigated me?"

Li Xuan paused for a moment and then said, "I'm practically in the same line of work as you, but we usually deal with judging demons and monsters, so I know a little about many things. You're just one of them."

I'll say it again: as long as you haven't done anything evil, and neither has that female ghost named Jiang Xue. She may have violated some rules, but after being punished according to procedure, she can still be reincarnated smoothly. You don't need to be so wary of me.”

Seeing Li Xuan release his hand, Huang Yongfa felt relieved and said, "We knew we had violated the order of Yin and Yang, so Jiang Xue voluntarily went to the underworld to be reincarnated."

Li Xuan didn't pursue this further. He didn't even know where the ghost was. The most important thing was to find the ghost messenger!

He asked, "Your brother Acong seems to know a fortune teller, could you give him a call?"

Huang Yongfa asked, "Do you want an address?"

Li Xuan nodded.

As evening approached and darkness began to fall, he dialed Ah Cong's phone number and said, "Give me the address of the New Territories fortune teller, I have... a friend of mine who wants to go to the fortune teller's place to ask her something."

Ah Cong's voice came through the receiver: "Oh? I'm going to Grandma's place later too. I'll send you the address. Tell him to mention my name when he gets there, and he'll get a discount!"

After hanging up the phone, a message with an address arrived.

Huang Yongfa showed the address to Li Xuan: "Grandma is a good person; fortune telling is her only livelihood."

Li Xuan glanced at Huang Yongfa and smiled, "I'm not a serial killer, don't worry..."

If Huang Yongfa hadn't seen that intense murderous aura yesterday, he would have believed Li Xuan's words.

Li Xuan glanced at the time on his phone and said, "It's almost dinner time. Let's grab something to eat; it's on me."

Huang Yongfa just wanted to get away from this person as soon as possible, so he waved his hand and said, "I've already eaten and want to go back and rest early. Let's meet another day."

After he finished speaking, he turned and left, disappearing into the alley. He turned left and right several times, hailed a taxi and drove to an unfamiliar place. After circling around twice more, he changed taxis again and returned to a remote location in the New Territories. Then he walked to Ah Cong's house...

My main concern is that Li Xuan will follow us.

In reality, Li Xuan abandoned the idea of ​​tracking them and only wanted to find the ghost messenger as soon as possible to complete this mission.

He had already written down the address, hailed a car and headed straight to the destination. The location wasn't far; it only took half an hour to get there. The old lady lived in a courtyard house.

The environment was terrible; electrical wires were haphazardly strung outside, children were playing and making noise in the hallway, and adults were constantly yelling at them…

Li Xuan raised his hand and knocked on the door, saying, "Excuse me, is this Granny Zhou who asks about divination?"

A voice came from inside: "Come in."

He pushed open the door and went inside. The house was very crowded, with curtains on almost every door. In the small living room, there was a table with several bowls of raw rice and pieces of paper covered with various birth dates and times. There was a newspaper on the side of the table.

Behind the table sat an elderly woman in her fifties, wearing glasses and scrolling through her phone. Hearing the voice, she put it down, looked up, and said, "Is there a relative you need to call up and ask?"

Li Xuan said, "I would like to ask you to summon the ghost messengers."

The old woman was stunned. In all her years of fortune telling, this was the first time she had encountered a customer who wanted to see a ghost messenger.

She asked, somewhat puzzled, "Ghost messengers, do you have any relatives who are ghost messengers? They usually don't leave the underworld casually. Even when they send ghosts up, they leave immediately after sending them up." Li Xuan took out a stack of 100 yuan bills and placed them on the table: "Thank you for your trouble. I have something I'd like to ask the ghost messengers about the underworld."

The old woman looked at the thickness of the hundred-yuan bill, hesitated for a moment, sighed and said, "Alright, I'll give it a try, but the ghost messengers don't have good tempers. If you mess it up, you'll lose a year of life."

Li Xuan smiled and said, "Okay."

The old woman picked up a piece of white paper, wrote a passage and an incomprehensible talisman on it, and then muttered incantations.

In Li Xuan's eyes, white light was constantly flowing from the old woman's dantian (lower abdomen) and gathering in her mouth, resembling magic power yet not quite, but it was quite pure...

Two minutes passed...

The two candles in the incense burner on the table suddenly burst into green flames, the lights in the entire living room turned cold and dim, and the temperature continued to drop.

The old woman trembled, then suddenly looked up, her pupils gleaming with black light, and spoke in a man's voice: "You summoned the ghost messenger! What do you want? Whether I answer or not, you will pay with ten years of your lifespan!"

Are you so domineering?

Li Xuan was somewhat surprised, but still asked, "Excuse me, where is the office of the underworld? I've been to the underworld, why are there only ruins and wandering ghosts everywhere?"

The ghost messenger's expression turned strange: "What do you want to do?"

Li Xuan said, "I've heard that some ghosts make deals with ghost messengers, giving the lifespan of their next life to people who are already dead. This seems to go against the order of Yin and Yang reincarnation, so I want to go to the office to see what's going on."

The ghost messenger's face darkened. Trading lifespans is a common occurrence, and it often does such things. What's wrong with charging a small commission as a reward?

It placed its hands on the table, brought its face close to Li Xuan's cheek, and sneered, "What are you, daring to meddle in the affairs of the underworld!"

Li Xuan looked at it and said, "I am Li Xuan, the Left Judge of the General Records Office of Fengdu, in charge of the affairs of the ghosts and gods of the Six Heavenly Palaces."

As he spoke, his pupils split in two and rotated a few times.

The ghost messenger saw it clearly and was immediately shocked: "What the hell is this?!"

It didn't know what the Right Judge of the General Records Office of Fengdu was, and what the affairs of the ghosts and gods of the Six Heavenly Palaces were, but the young man in front of it exuded a very dangerous aura!
Let's run away!

Li Xuan grabbed the ghost messenger's wrist, gathered his magic power in his right index finger, and quickly drew a talisman on the messenger's brow, chanting: "Heaven is clear and earth is at peace, the Dao Qi manifests its power. The three souls are bound, the seven spirits are suppressed. The Supreme One commands, quickly bind the ghost's form. Evil spirits, do not move, stiffen as ice. Hasten, hasten, as the law commands!"

Immobilization and Soul-Locking Spell.

The ghost messenger was horrified to discover that it couldn't escape the old woman's body at all; the ghost body barely managed to break free before being pulled back by a tremendous force.

The old woman's body became a cage tailor-made for it, and its struggles from side to side were useless.

It immediately realized it had encountered a legendary master, and its pride vanished. It conceded and said, "Master, please forgive my ignorance. If I have offended you in any way, I am willing to apologize..."

Although I cooperated with this old woman to bring ghosts to the mortal realm, I was actually resolving the ghosts' obsessions and enlightening the minds of the living, which is an act of accumulating merit. I hope a wise person will show mercy and let me go!

Li Xuan said, "Take me to the underworld, to your office, how about that?"

The ghost messenger hesitated for a moment, his eyes darting around. This person did have some skills, but there were countless ghosts and wandering spirits in the underworld. If he could call on other ghost messengers to help, taking down this person would be a piece of cake. So he said, "Alright, you can go wherever you want, master! It's just that this special location in the underworld only opens once every three days. If you want to go in again, you'll have to wait until the day after tomorrow."
