Chapter 45 Little Red the Female Ghost
Chapter 45 Little Red the Female Ghost
"hehe!"
"Although he's not Uncle Nine, he's still a master!"
Zhao Yi couldn't help but smile when he heard what his seventh uncle said inside.
"I was just passing by and had no intention of disturbing you!"
He said it out loud, then turned and left.
He wasn't very interested in Hong Xiaobao and his apprentices.
The purpose of coming to Shijia Town was simply to deal with that evil cultivator.
"However, I remember there is a female ghost in this town who has never harmed anyone. She could have been reincarnated, but she forced herself to stay in the human world to fulfill her filial duty to her blind mother."
"Perhaps this kind of female ghost has accumulated some good karma."
Zhao Yi was curious and, following the information in the movie, headed towards the ghost's house.
When Hong Xiaobao's master saw Zhao Yi leave, a hint of seriousness flashed in his eyes.
"He's truly an unfathomable person!" Uncle Qi thought to himself, but he didn't chase after him.
Based on information about the movie and after making several inquiries, Zhao Yi...
Half an hour later, Zhao Yi found the female ghost's house.
"Open the Dharma Eye, connect Yin and Yang!"
Zhao Yi instantly activated his Divine Eye.
"Who are you?"
As soon as Zhao Yi entered the room, he saw a blind middle-aged woman. The woman seemed to have heard the noise and asked a question.
The female ghost, Xiao Hong, seems to be hiding inside the house.
"It seems they dare not come out easily during the day!" Zhao Yi understood.
"I'm a good friend of Awen's. He had to go to work in the Northwest Province a couple of days ago. Before he left, he asked me to look after you."
Zhao Yi said with a smile.
Swish!
As soon as Zhao Yi finished speaking, he noticed that the female ghost Xiao Hong inside the house instantly flew to the window of the room, seemingly peeking at him cautiously.
"So you're Awen's friend. Come in quickly. My Xiaohong isn't home; she's gone to work. She'll be back tonight," the middle-aged woman said with a smile.
"Not at home?" Zhao Yi knew the answer.
The female ghost, Xiao Hong, never dared to tell the blind old woman about her death.
The female ghost would hide during the day and come out at night.
Zhao Yi's eyes sharpened, and he instantly looked at the female ghost, Xiao Hong.
"He...he...he found me?" The female ghost trembled instantly.
After all, she's using a concealment technique, so how could she be discovered?
"We can talk!"
Zhao Yi opened his mouth, but no sound came out; however, the female ghost saw it.
After saying that, Zhao Yi ignored the female ghost and chatted with the blind old woman for a while. Before leaving, he left her more than a dozen silver dollars.
However, before leaving, he took out a jade pendant from the bronze granary and threw it at the female ghost's feet.
This jade pendant can nurture the soul and can serve as a hiding place for female ghosts.
After a moment of silence, the female ghost entered the jade pendant.
Upon seeing this, Zhao Yi smiled.
Ah Da took the jade pendant with him.
......
In a hotel room, Zhao Yi casually tossed the jade pendant to the ground.
"Let's talk!"
Zhao Yi said with a smile.
"Little Red greets Young Master!" The female ghost instantly floated out of the jade pendant and first bowed to Zhao Yi.
"I wonder what business you have with me, young master?" the female ghost asked sweetly.
"Although you are very filial and take care of your mother every day in accordance with the law, humans and ghosts are different after all. If you stay by your mother's side every day, she will be tainted by yin energy and ghost energy, which will harm her health."
"Has your mother been getting sick a lot lately?"
"That's because you're by her side every day!" Zhao Yi said calmly.
"Young master, are you trying to capture me?" The female ghost's expression changed instantly, and she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Taking care of her mother was Xiao Hong's only remaining thought in the world.
"The Eye of Sin!"
[1 strand of merit (a small amount of merit, no loss of unseen virtue)]
[Sin Value: 0 (Nothing special)]
[Defeating the enemy will grant 0 strands of merit.]
"Indeed, there is no sin, and even a little merit."
"Looks like a kind person!"
Zhao Yi thought to himself.
"You have no sins to commit and even some merits, so I'm naturally not here to arrest you," Zhao Yi said.
"Then, young master, what do you mean?" The female ghost was taken aback and asked subconsciously.
"Come be my maid, and I'll take care of your mother for you."
"Humans and ghosts are different. Your presence by your mother's side is more of a curse than a blessing."
"But if you become my maid, I will find someone to take care of your mother, ensuring she has enough to eat and drink for the rest of her life and enjoys a peaceful old age," Zhao Yi said casually.
He now owns the Mingyue Grand Restaurant, which is doing good business every day, so he's not short of money at all.
Hiring someone to take care of the female ghost mother is nothing unusual.
"Arrange for them to stay in the mortuary, and also hire two people to take care of the female ghost mother and her master. One salary for two things is not bad."
"Moreover, although Wencai is unreliable, he's not a bad person at heart. With him watching over the blind old woman, plus two helpers, that should be enough," Zhao Yi thought to himself.
"This..." The female ghost was stunned for a moment, not expecting Zhao Yi to say that.
"You only get one chance, I think you know how to choose," Zhao Yi said calmly.
"I...this..." The female ghost panicked.
"You have no sins and even some merits. Be my maid, and when I no longer need you, I will help you enter the underworld. This is much better than you going directly to reincarnation." Zhao Yi dropped another bombshell.
In fact, he could also subdue the female ghost using forceful methods.
But that would make you just like a villain.
Anyway, I'm just here to "talk". If this female ghost doesn't know what's good for her, then so be it.
If he agrees, it will be just as Zhao Yi wishes.
After all, finding a female ghost is less troublesome than finding a person, and besides, female ghosts do what needs to be done when there's something to do, and they do nothing when there's nothing to do...
"Xiao Hong is willing to be the young master's maid and serve him at his side."
A moment later, the female ghost bowed deeply.
"Haha, Little Red, you made a good choice."
"You can keep this jade pendant for now. As for your mother, I'll bring her back to Renjia Town with me when I return." Zhao Yi was immediately in a good mood.
"Yes, young master!"
Little Red immediately disappeared into the jade pendant.
"We've found the maid; now it's time to go see that Young Master Shi!"
Zhao Yi casually put the jade pendant in his pocket, then got up and left the room.
He didn't know exactly where the heretical cultivator was, but if he wasn't mistaken, he was definitely with Young Master Shi.
Therefore, as long as Zhao Yi finds Young Master Shi, he will most likely be able to find that evil sorcerer.
Finding Young Master Shi is simple; just go to town and ask around, and you'll find the Shi family.
The town is called Shijia Town, so Shijia must be easy to find.
It's like going to Renjia Town to find the Ren family; you can find them with just a few inquiries.
Sure enough, when Zhao Yi inquired, almost everyone knew about it.
Zhao Yi went straight there, but unfortunately the young master of the Shi family was not home. He said he had gone out and would not be back until evening.
"This is a bit troublesome; we'll just have to wait."
"Go and wait at the inn where you agreed to meet your master!" Zhao Yi immediately left the Shi family.
He chose a window seat, drinking tea and watching the pedestrians below while waiting.
About an hour and a half later, Uncle Nine hurriedly entered the inn from the street.
"Master, over here!"
