Chapter 305 Mr. Spiritual Illusion
In a remote place without surveillance, Li Xuan used the Nine Springs Command to summon the Chief Clerk and explained the situation. The Chief Clerk nodded and said that with the current rank of a mid-level judge, this matter was entirely within his power to handle.

In the myriad realms, many worlds lack an underworld. Therefore, before the establishment of the underworld, some ghosts could be moved to the existing Fengdu Hell for resettlement.

The sound of chains rang out as the clerk locked up all four ghosts released by Li Xuan and sent them into the Nine Springs Command.

While the three ghosts in the company were crying and wailing, Liu Anning looked at Li Xuan deeply and said, "Li Xuan, the happiest thing in my life is being able to write down everything about you on paper."

After she finished speaking, she was dragged into the underworld by chains.

The empty street was left with only Li Xuan standing quietly. He picked up his phone and sent a message to Liu Anning's mother: "Auntie, I just went to see Anning. I think she can rest in peace now."

A reply came quickly from the phone: "Thank you, thank you so much."

Li Xuan didn't like these tragic stories. He exhaled a breath of stale air, looked in the direction of home, and said, "Let's start the mission. The multiverse is more suitable for me."

As soon as he finished speaking, a green light rose from the horizon and then reflected back!
Li Xuan spread his arms, green light entered his body, a gentle breeze surrounded him, and with a whoosh, he vanished into the wind...

……

At midnight, in a small town in Guangdong, a house was brightly lit, and many people stood there, staring in horror at a plaque that read "Cuiya Residence"...

Several servants placed a table covered with a yellow cloth in the courtyard, directly opposite the gate.

A man in his early forties, dressed in brocade robes, looked worried as he listened to a cunning Taoist priest with a thin face and a protruding chin describe the situation inside the house.

The man, a wealthy man from Taishan named Tan Baiwan, bought a house here. However, strange things began to happen to his family after only a few days of living there...

Whenever I sleep in bed at night, I find myself lying on the floor during the day. This has been going on for half a month, and no amount of Taoist priests or monks have been able to help me.

During the day, a Taoist priest claiming to be from Maoshan came and said that the house was filled with ghostly energy and that he could handle it.

Maoshan Ming then recited the situation in a tongue twister: "Carrying someone onto the table means they are an evil person; carrying someone off the bed means they are an evil ghost. You should be afraid of evil people, but as for evil ghosts, I'm here!"

Tan Baiwan said with little interest, "You're the tenth Taoist priest to say that to me."

Seeing that he didn't trust him, Maoshanming exclaimed, "I am the tenth one!"

Tan Baiwan didn't know what to say, so he took out a stack of silver notes, counted them for a while, and then handed a small red envelope to Mao Shanming: "It's just a small token of my appreciation."

Maoshan Ming took the red envelope, turned his back, opened it, and saw that there was only one silver dollar. He sighed and began to perform the ritual.

He chanted incantations, threaded copper coins together, threw out talismans, and, after a show of courtesy, used two umbrellas representing the underworld and the living world to throw into the opened door of Cuiya Residence.

The next second, news came that both umbrellas had been thrown away.

Enraged, he stormed in with a peach wood sword and a soul-suppressing bell. The door closed automatically, and a ghost, a young man and a child dressed in Qing Dynasty official attire, appeared inside.

Mao Shanming, having been tricked, immediately became furious: "What are you doing? What are you doing! I told you to take it seriously, not seriously. Hurry up and go out and scam some money..."

It turns out that all of this was orchestrated by Maoshan Ming himself, who conspired with two ghosts to swindle money from everyone. Recently, he heard that a man named Tan Baiwan's entire family had been tormented by ghosts, so he came up with a plan to get some money from them. Who knew that Tan Baiwan was so stingy, only giving them a single silver dollar...

Just as he was about to pretend to finish work,

Ghosts really did appear in Cuiya Residence, and they were a complete family of more than ten people. Judging from their clothes, they were indeed officials in life. The ghosts explained the situation.

Originally, this land was a cemetery, but someone built a house there, and the Tan family moved in. The yang energy of the living gathered there, and it was naturally very uncomfortable for them to be pressed down on them all day long. So they moved them to the ground to scare them away... Maoshan Ming tried to mediate, but he ended up angering the family and almost died inside. He ran away with the big and small ghosts, covered in dust.

He ran into the street, panting, "Looks like we can't stay in this village anymore. Let's go to another village to fish."

Maoshan Ming always adhered to the principle of "hit and run" to avoid being caught.

Since this village really has so many ghosts, he's already struggling to protect himself with his limited Maoshan magic. As for subduing them, that's someone else's problem...

He turned his Taoist robe inside out and put it on. It turned out that the garment had two sides: the front was a Taoist robe, and the back was a dark blue long gown. It was convenient to wear two clothes at once.

And so, the one man and the two ghosts slipped away from the village.

Inside Cuiya Residence, Tan Baiwan's family, covered in dust and dirt, slowly gathered back from afar. Having just been frightened by the ghost, they had all run around in a panic, and some had even fallen into the latrine, only managing to drink half their fill before climbing out.

Tan Baiwan's expression was complicated. In this world, even Taoist priests are so treacherous. What is real anymore?

The wife said, "Why don't we sell the house and go back to Taishan?"

Tan Baiwan hesitated for a moment before saying, "Taishan is just where I made my fortune, but my ancestral home is still here. I'm almost fifty years old now. My old home has become a mass grave. I should rebuild it so that when I go to the underworld, I can have something to say to my ancestors..."

He's very good at business, but he has no way to deal with ghosts.

Just then, a person walked out of the street, attracting the attention of everyone present.

The man was wearing a gray shirt, cloth trousers, and casual sneakers. He had short hair, delicate features, and fair skin that looked even smoother than a woman's...

Where did this rich young master come from?

Tan Baiwan noticed that the women were staring blankly at the strange visitor in the middle of the night, so he coughed twice and said, "Aren't you scared enough by the ghost in the house?"

The moment the word "ghost" was uttered, the women immediately regained their senses.

Yes.

Where did such a handsome young man come from so late at night?

The material of those clothes is so good, it doesn't seem real at all. Is it an illusion or a trick of the eye?
Everyone instinctively backed away.

Tan Baiwan's heart was pounding, but he mustered his courage and shouted, "This is Cuiya Residence, my place, Tan Baiwan's place. Who are you? What is your purpose? Tell me..."

Hope is in people; where there's a need, there's a way!

The young man said, "Your name is Tan Baiwan?"

Tan Baiwan recognized the voice as strong and resonant, unlike the ethereal and echoing voice of a ghost. He immediately felt more confident, and it seemed that the person in front of him knew him.

He puffed out his chest slightly and said, "Indeed, what brings you here so late at night, friend?"

The young man stood there motionless and silent, which made Tan Baiwan's heart pound. Although there were seven or eight servants, anyone who dared to come out at night must have some skill.

I've heard there are bandits active near Baiyun Village, and they've already plundered many villages at night. Some say the bandit leader is a woman with a powerful witchcraft that makes the bandits invulnerable to weapons...
