The real heiress is a fortune teller; her divinations are worth a fortune, and the whole internet is

"Am I not good to you? What do you want that I haven't given you? We can break free from the constraints of being a puppet and go anywhere we can. Why would you rather be with your parents than stay with me?"

The child ghost questioned him sharply, scaring Pipi so much that he shrank back into his parents' arms. Not to mention Pipi, the four ghosts also retreated in fear.

"Dude, listen to what you're saying! Those are their biological parents. Isn't it natural for them to be together?"

I advised the little ghost not to be too possessive of his friends; you're not the only one in his life.

[This kid ghost seems to have some mental issues. A normal person, or rather, a normal ghost, knows that a child has more than one friend, so how come he's so possessive that he'd want to kill someone?]

[The minds of the perverted are always incomprehensible; if we were to understand them, things would get very complicated.]

"I think you need to get your head checked out," he said, referring to how drunk he got after eating just a few dishes.

Chang Xi tightened the red rope and swung it away, "At your age, your mind hasn't matured at all. What are you doing playing at imprisonment? Here you go!"

A red rope is wrapped around the child ghost, with the other end around the doll's neck.

Chang Xi held the red rope in the middle, tightened it, and chanted, "Heaven and earth, nature, dispel the foul air; divine power from all directions, make me natural. Change!"

The soul of Pippi was thrown out of the doll, and then the child ghost was sucked back into the doll by a powerful suction force.

The child ghost pounded on the transparent walls around them, squeezing out a hoarse, aged voice from its throat, "Let me out! Let me out!"

"Quiet, this is so annoying," Chang Xi slapped the dolls, then looked up and said, "Should I send you to be reincarnated?"

"Thank you, Master!" the group said gratefully.

Chang Xi patted Pipi's head. "How about I send you and this older sister to be reincarnated first?"

Pipi shook her head, "No, I want to go with Mommy and Daddy!"

The parents exchanged a glance, seemingly sensing what Changxi was about to say, and gently comforted Pipi, "Baby, why don't you go first? Mom and Dad still have some things to do. We'll come find you when we're done."

"No, no!" Pipi had been separated from her parents for too long and refused to be alone no matter what.

Chang Xi sighed, "Then I'll be frank. Because of your involvement in murder, the sins you've committed will prevent you from being reincarnated immediately. You'll be punished first."

"But they were forced," Lu Wenli pleaded, bound and gagged. "Isn't there a better way?"

"Paying back debts is a matter of course," Chang Xi said dismissively. Just because you were forced doesn't mean you can escape punishment. "The three of you should be glad that you were just accomplices and didn't eat the souls of the dead, otherwise your fate would have been much worse."

Pipi was a child and didn't participate, and the female ghost in the Xiuhe dress didn't manage to kill Changxi and the others, so naturally nothing happened to them.

However, the couple helped guide the male ghost to jump off the building, and since the male ghost had bitten the female ghost's soul, they would both suffer after going down.

I was just thinking of sending the child and the female ghost away because I didn't want the image of parents to collapse in front of the child.

Seeing the bewildered expressions on their faces, Chang Xi came up with a compromise: "I can write a petition explaining your situation. Take it with you and you can try to negotiate with the officials in the underworld for a lighter punishment. You'll likely not suffer too much."

The group relaxed, bowed in gratitude, and said, "Thank you, Master!"

Chang Xi made a hand seal with one hand and muttered unintelligible words. Two yellow letters appeared in the ghost's hand.

An ancient and solemn door behind them slowly opened.

Is this the legendary Ghost Gate?

[No offense intended!]

【+1】

【+2】

[+...]

The ghosts entered the door, and the gate vanished in an instant.

Lu Wenli stepped forward and waved, "It's really gone! Can you even open the gates of hell?"

"No problem," Chang Xi said, coming back to deal with the ghost child in his hands. "Tsk, this is a problem."

The ghost child struggled inside the doll, wishing it could jump out and tear Chang Xi to pieces. The doll itself twitched as if it were having an epileptic seizure.

"You're going to kill it?" Lu Wenli asked curiously.

Chang Xi sat down on the sofa and casually placed the doll in the middle. "Shall we sit down and chat?"

Lu Wenli plopped down on the other side.

[I wasn't telling you to sit down, my silly roe deer.]

"It wasn't me?" he belatedly asked.

"What's there to talk about with you? Go play somewhere else," Chang Xi poked the doll. "Let's talk."

"I'm not talking!" The doll tilted its head, and became even angrier when it saw that Lu Wenli was still broadcasting its miserable state.

"Let's chat for two dollars."

"No way! Whatever you want to know from me, I'm not telling you!"

"Fine, if you don't want to talk, I'll kill you. Tell me, should I cut off your hands first or your legs? Or I'll tear off your toes one by one, okay?" Chang Xi raised the corners of his mouth slightly, his smile chilling.

Lu Wenli swallowed hard and shrank back, phone and all.

Chang Xi's smile looks like a villain's.

"Mom, I'm scared."

[Chang Xi, that despicable woman, is at it again, trying to attract attention! Chang Xi, come out here! You've ruined Si Ting's reputation; you deserve to die a horrible death!]

Who is this?

[Xu Siting's fans.]

[Xu Siting? The one trending on social media for stealing someone else's painting? What an idiot! Go back to your own turf.]

[Don't you even know whose territory you're on? Your own idol is so shameless, covered in scandals, yet you have the nerve to come to someone else's place and cause trouble? Do you think Lu Wenli is some nobody like Chang Xi, with no fans at all?]

[If you dare to speak disrespectfully in the deer's territory again, I'll slaughter your already precarious plaza.]

[You, you all side with that slut Chang Xi! Your real master isn't any better!]

Yes, yes, you're a good thing, just like your original owner, nothing worth throwing in the trash.

Lu Wenli's fans are quite capable.

The child ghost was terrified, "Aren't you a Taoist practitioner? Where is your benevolence and compassion?"

"It was eaten by a dog," Chang Xi never demanded high moral standards of herself. After all, it was very difficult to be a purely good person. As long as she had no morals, no one could morally blackmail her.

I have never seen such a shameless person!

The child ghost's chest heaved violently, and he almost fainted. "Whether I answer your question or not depends on my mood."

"What's your name?"

"Didn't Pipi say that my name is Bean Sprout?"

"Bean Sprout was the name Pipi gave you after she picked you up and brought you home, right? What was your name before that?"

The child ghost's eyes were filled with desolation. He gave a self-deprecating laugh, "What name can an ugly thing like me, tossed around like this, have? They all call me Ugly Thing. Call me that if you want, then."

"You weren't originally a doll, were you? Why is your soul trapped inside this doll after you die?" Chang Xi could tell from the first moment she saw him that he was a human soul, and according to common sense, he wouldn't be trapped inside a doll.

"I don't remember," the child ghost seemed lost in some memory.
