Chapter 42 The Hanged Ghost
The place where the hanged man's feet were hanging corresponded exactly to the place where Cheng Ze's desk was.
Usually when Cheng Ze sat at the desk, the hanged man's feet would rub against his neck.
If you stay in the same room with ghosts for a long time, you will be infected by the ghost's aura over time.
Scratches from the hanged man's toenails began to appear on Cheng Ze's neck.
The reason why Cheng Ze's face turned purple and congested and he had difficulty breathing was because of this.
Because the ghost was no longer just rubbing its feet against his neck.
Instead, he wanted to kill Cheng Ze and make him the bound spirit trapped in this study room.
Whenever Cheng Ze appeared in the study, he would clamp his neck tightly with his feet, trying to suffocate him to death.
The ghost energy penetrated into Cheng Ze's body more and more, and a ghost energy kept lingering around his neck.
The hanged man had bulging eyes and a long tongue hanging from the beam.
Seeing Shen Xia Xia stopped at the door of the study, the two big men hid behind her and said in trembling voices: "How is it, Master Shen? Is there something dirty here?"
Shen Xia Xia said calmly: "It's a hanged ghost."
"Ah!" The Cheng family's father and son's legs suddenly went weak and they almost fell to the ground.
Father Cheng's voice trembled: "Why do I feel weird every time I enter this study? I heard strange noises coming from inside several times, but I didn't take it seriously."
Cheng Ze was so scared that he couldn't speak: "Every time I'm in the study, I feel like someone is pinching my neck. Please help me, Master Shen."
The hanged ghost's voice was miserable and sharp: "Damn metaphysician, I advise you not to ruin my good deeds!"
Shen Xia Xia sneered: "It's your bad luck to meet me, Shen Xia Xia, and you dare to threaten me."
After saying that, Shen Xia Xia took out a talisman to slay evil spirits and avoid ghosts from her bag.
He secretly gathered spiritual power in his hands and cast the talisman on the hanged ghost.
"Ahhhhhhh!" Wisps of green smoke were emitted from the burns on the hanged ghost's body by the talismans, and the howling of ghosts and wolves resounded through the sky.
The ghost energy weakened, and Cheng Ze clearly felt a lot more comfortable on his neck.
The hanged ghost floated down from the beam, ready to fight to the death with Shen Xia Xia.
But as soon as the ghost landed on the ground, Shen Xia Xia bound it with a soul-binding talisman.
It was a fierce ghost after all, but it was being beaten by a little girl. The hanged ghost had a hideous face, with a long tongue exposed and bulging eyeballs dripping with bright red blood.
The previous owner of the house had asked a master to take a look, but those so-called masters were scared away by him.
Later, the homeowner had no choice but to sell the house at a low price.
A ghost is still a ghost. In a short while, the hanged ghost broke free from the soul-binding talisman.
The ghost energy reached its peak and the magnetic field of the entire room was changed.
Books on the shelves began to fall.
The Cheng father and son were so scared that they curled up behind Shen Xia Xia and closed their eyes.
"You bitch, I don't think you'll cry until you see the coffin." The hanged ghost turned into a ball of black gas and pounced on Shen Xia Xia.
Shen Xia Xia crossed her fingers and bent them: "When facing the enemy, they should line up and march forward."
A golden light illuminated behind Shen Xia Xia.
The ghost energy was dispersed instantly.
This time, even the Cheng family father and son could see the golden light.
Father Cheng was dumbfounded: "This is truly an expert!"
Cheng Ze had an admiring look on his face: "As expected, Lu Yaohui was not lying to me. His sister-in-law is really capable."
The hanged man returned to his original appearance, holding his head and running around: "Stop hitting me, stop hitting me."
The magnetic field in the study instantly returned to calm, and the bookcase that had been shaking restlessly also became exquisite.
Shen Xia Xia shouted: "Humans and ghosts have different paths. You are already dead, why are you still staying in the world of the living?"
The scapegoat looked aggrieved: "Do you think I don't want to? The key is that I can't leave. I'm trapped in this damn place. The only way for me to leave is to find a scapegoat. I finally found one, but you messed it up."
This is a difficult matter to deal with. The evil ghosts who died unjustly will not be accepted in the underworld and will not be kept in the world of the living. They have to survive in the gap between yin and yang time and space.
The only way is to go to the underworld to find the judge.
When a living person goes to the underworld next time, his vitality and spiritual energy are greatly depleted, and there is even a risk of not being able to return.
Even if you give her several hundred million, she will still think twice.
After all, it is possible that she may earn money but not spend it. She has no children or relatives, so who will spend the money after she dies?
Besides, even though the Cheng family has some wealth, it is impossible for them to come up with so much money.
Shen Xia Xia weighed the list and felt it was not worth it for her to do this.
"No, you should move to another house." Shen Xia Xia turned to the Cheng family father and son and said, "Let this hanged man continue to live here."
Father Cheng frowned, "Is there any other way? This house is not easy to sell now. We have already invested most of our belongings in this house, and it will be difficult to find another house of the same price and type."
Shen Xia Xia: "Yes, but you can't afford it."
Father Cheng thought for a moment and said, "We may not have that much money, but we have a family heirloom. If Master Shen helps us get rid of this evil spirit, I can give it to you."
"What magic weapon?" Shen Xia Xia was a little interested.
“A South China Sea pineapple statue of Guanyin blessed by the Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara.”
Hearing this, Shen Xia Xia's eyes lit up.
This is one of the four magical weapons that can break the Seven Evils Formation, and there is only one such weapon in the world.
"Okay!" Shen Xia Xia agreed without hesitation: "But I want to inspect the goods first."
"Come with me." Father Cheng took Shen Xia Xia to an incense room.
On the main seat, the statue of Guanyin made of red rosewood is made of South China Yellow Pear.
The statue of Guanyin is very spiritual and Shen Xia Xia is sure that it is the real thing.
Shen Xiaxia frowned slightly: "Logically, since the Nanhai Pineapple Guanyin statue is here, that hanged ghost shouldn't dare to do anything rash. Why is he still so active?"
The ghost's sobbing voice came from the study room: "I can only stay in the study room far away from it. What else do you want me to do? Without this Guanyin statue, I can move around the house."
Father Cheng said: "This Guanyin statue has some spiritual power sealed temporarily. You can unseal it if you need it. After all, a statue with too much spiritual power will disturb the ancestors of the family."
"The Guanyin statue is meant to save those who are destined to be saved. It would be a waste to keep it in our house. It would be better to give it to Master Shen. Maybe it can do something great."
"So that's it." Shen Xia Xia suddenly realized.
"I've accepted this business, and this matter is on me."
"Then I'll have to trouble Master Shen."
