For ten years I practiced Gu poison in Southeast Asia; all living beings revered me as a deity.

【you are dead】

[Intervention in "Panupong's Reincarnation Fragment" failed; you have 8 chances left.]

[Evaluation: Despite your best efforts, the result is still unsatisfactory.]

[Reward: Considering your efforts, although you did not refine a suitable 'Gu material', you have received a 'Black Magic Candle'.]

"call!"

Luo Feng exhaled a breath of stale air.

The death in the second cycle of reincarnation was not unacceptable to him.

"Trial and error is necessary."

Luo Feng muttered to himself.

Since the reincarnation fragments do not actually die, it is crucial to obtain information through trial and error.

He examined his haul this time.

It was a candle.

It was the magic candle that Wuchai had given him before.

He took it out from the Reincarnation Gu mark in his palm and examined it closely.

Immediately, a line of information popped up in front of me.

[Black Magic Candle: A magic candle crafted using Lanna sorcery methods, its materials including animal bone ash, grave soil, ash from the bottom of the crematorium furnace, and fragments of shrouds. This magic candle can ward off evil spirits and exorcise ghosts, and can also be used as a material for casting spells (this item cannot be used in the cycle of reincarnation)]

"Lanna witchcraft?"

Luo Feng was taken aback.

He is from Chiang Mai, which is in northern Thailand.

This area was once home to an ancient kingdom called the Lanna Kingdom, a powerful early regime in northern Thailand. Its origins can be traced back to the Chiang Saen Kingdom.

Chiang Mai was once the capital of the Lanna Kingdom. The Lanna Kingdom and the Tai people in China are very similar in language, culture and customs. However, it was later destroyed by the Toungoo Kingdom in Myanmar.

Later, northern Thailand came under the control of the Bangkok Dynasty. However, the Lanna Kingdom had a profound influence on this land, especially on its culture and customs. The so-called Lanna witchcraft has a very deep connection with the Dai people of Yunnan, and its witchcraft culture is quite complex.

"However, I heard that this kind of witchcraft has almost been lost in northern Thailand, but there are still some Shan witchcraft practitioners from Myanmar who still possess some of the witchcraft traditions."

Luo Feng heard about it from his uncle, who knew several dealers in Hong Kong and was quite knowledgeable about the subject.

Suddenly, the swirling lines on my palm felt slightly warm.

The feedback from the Reincarnation Gu reappeared.

Having experienced two cycles of reincarnation and been impacted and cleansed by the evil energy, you can unlock the 'Constitution' option. Upon first unlocking this feature, you can choose from three different 'temporary constitutions': 1. Child Body; 2. Yin Transcendence; 3. Gu Master.

"...Temporary constitution?"

Luo Feng was startled and continued reading carefully.

The information fed back by the Reincarnation Gu is not limited to what has been mentioned above, but also includes the mechanism of this temporary constitution and the differences between these three constitutions.

Temporary constitution is a trait that can be strengthened and replaced.

From a certain perspective, it can be considered an unconventional talent, only one that is more biased.

The first type: spirit medium. This involves invoking spirits and ascending an altar to invite immortals.

The characteristics of a spirit medium are the ability to invoke spirits and summon spirits. In addition, spirit mediums can also communicate with spirits and ghosts.

However, the greatest advantage of a spirit medium is that it can "use the opponent's strength against them," such as relying on the power of temple gods and the gods it worships to do things.

The second type: Crossing the Yin. This involves traversing the Yin and Yang realms, drawing the soul along a thread.

Those who communicate with spirits are considered mediums or spiritual mediums. They have a keen sensitivity to spirits and are characterized by their ability to summon souls, read incense, consult divination sticks, summon the dead, and communicate with the deceased to obtain various information.

It is worth mentioning that those who pass through the underworld are also very sensitive to threats from spirits, which enhances their ability to escape.

The third type: Gu practitioners. They use witchcraft and sorcery to cast spells and curse insects.

A Gu practitioner is essentially a half-shaman, as witchcraft and Gu magic have been inextricably linked since ancient times. The "medicine curse" and "insect curse" popular in Southeast Asia are fundamentally derived from Gu magic. Furthermore, cultivating advanced Gu magic requires the involvement of witchcraft incantations and other techniques…

"Of these three temporary constitutions, the Gu Master constitution is definitely the most suitable for me. After all, the Reincarnation Gu I obtained is also a type of Gu."

However, what is most important to him is this current segment of reincarnation, so he decided to choose the temporary constitution of "passing through the Yin".

"The servant body and the Gu master seem to be useless in this cycle of reincarnation. Moreover, these things are called temporary constitutions, which means they have a trial period. These three constitutions can be replaced by themselves before entering each cycle of reincarnation... until the end of this cycle of reincarnation, one of them can be chosen."

Once he completes this cycle of reincarnation, he can then choose the "Gu Master" physique.

"I choose the 'yin' constitution."

He chose this physique without hesitation.

[Temporary constitution 'Transcendence' loading...]

After a line of information flashed, Luo Feng immediately felt a cool sensation flow into his body, and a strange feeling spread throughout his body.

At that moment, for some unknown reason, the colors of the surrounding scenery he saw became more rounded.

"Has the Yin-type constitution loading been completed?"

Temporary physical constitution and basic talents seem to be usable in reality as well.

"However, wouldn't this constitution mean I'll see ghosts in real life...?"

He was a little puzzled.

"Never mind, if there are any problems, we can just change this constitution."

Luo Feng took a deep breath and decided to enter the cycle of reincarnation for the third time.

hum...

The Reincarnation Gu was activated, and in a daze, the surrounding scenery changed rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, he returned to the cycle of reincarnation.

At the same time, Wuchai's voice rang in my ears again.

"Hey... Panupong, are you still thinking straight?!"

"I'm fine."

Luo Feng was already used to this scene.

"That's good."

Wuchai continued to lead the way.

"The number has changed to '7'."

Luo Feng confirmed the change in the numbers on his palm and quickly followed.

……

……

Everything is the same as before.

Luo Feng and Wu Cai returned to the graveyard.

The two men dug up the body and began to roast the corpse oil.

However, this time, Luo Feng had a new idea.

"This time, I should try to rescue Wuchai as well. To leave the graveyard, his help is probably essential, because I can't escape the vengeful ghosts' pursuit alone."

Thinking of this, he quickly asked Wuchai.

"Witchcraft, if the ghosts in the graveyard can kill people, is there a type of ghost that can kill by stuffing hair down a person's throat, causing them to choke to death?"

"Of course ghosts can kill people."

Wuchai responded calmly, "However, the kind of death you described should not be the work of an ordinary ghost. The true nature of that thing should be called a 'phi pop,' a possessing ghost."

"The birth of 'Pippa' is mostly due to people who practice witchcraft, violate taboos, or go mad and are transformed after death. It can also be controlled, becoming a black magic ghost, and is controlled by a witch with profound magic power."

"With just a command from the sorcerer, this kind of cursed spirit will possess the person. The person possessed by this cursed spirit will exhibit hysterical states such as mental confusion, dizziness, crying and screaming. In the most severe cases, the possessed person's internal organs will be devoured by this evil spirit, leading to death."

Wuchai also said that the Dai people in China call this kind of ghost "Pipa Ghost" or "Pipa". In various parts of Thailand, there are nearly sixty kinds of ghosts called "Pi", which are generally classified into this category.

"The kind you're talking about is probably a leather strap that kills people with its hair."

A cursed spirit?

Luo Feng had a guess in his mind.

"In other words, the reason why this kind of monster, the Pippa, attacks people is because a sorcerer is casting a curse."

"almost."

Wuchai said leisurely, "Pippasus usually possess women. If such a ghost possesses a man, it must be under the orders of a sorcerer to harm him."

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng had already come to a conclusion: he and Wu Cai had both been killed by a cursed spirit.

"Could this female corpse have been turned into a skin-twisting ghost?"

A thought struck him, and he asked another question.

"So, could the leather bag have been hidden on the corpse?"

"Only corpse keepers stay on corpses. Skinflint prefers blood and will mostly possess people, feeding on raw flesh and animal blood..."

Wu Cai was speaking of calm and nonchalant attitude.

However, Luo Feng was not so calm.

"Furthermore, what methods can ordinary people use to fight against these skin-wielding demons that kill with their hair?"

"Ordinary people are no match for this kind of thing."

Wuchai said calmly, "However, hair is very flammable; burning it might actually work."

"fire?"

Luo Feng's eyes lit up.

Just then, a gust of wind blew by, carrying with it a woman's voice.

……here we go again!
