Chapter 184 Delegated tasks
"Can you still retain your consciousness in this village?"
After hearing the voice of the woman in the room, Su Peng couldn't help but be surprised.
Immediately, he returned to normal and said outside the door of the room: "Are you a human or a ghost? What is your identity? Why should I listen to you?"
He said to the house, but did not refuse. In Su Peng's opinion, having intelligence and being able to communicate is at least better than those wronged souls who only have resentment.
"I am not a human body, but at least I maintain my consciousness. Seeing that the young master killed a lot in the village...the souls of many poor people have some hurt their kindness. However, I am restricted and unable to leave this house. If the young master is worried, I have no special way to dispel it, but I hope I can listen to my words."
When Su Peng listened to this language, he seemed to ask for soft words and was well organized. It seemed that the other party was still very smart.
Moreover, Su Peng estimated that there would be no danger for the time being. If the female ghost could do anything to him, she would have done it long ago.
After thinking about it, Su Peng slowly walked forward and opened the door of the house with the scabbard of the Wufeng Sword with his left hand.
With the effect of the cow's tears, Su Peng arrived. In the house, a woman with a faint light was in the room.
"Thank you for your willingness to see me... My movements in this village are restricted and I cannot leave this room, so I am not very polite."
The woman inside bowed slightly and said to Su Peng.
"You seem to be thinking clearly. Tell me, what's the matter? Also, seeing you doing it here... the time you're doing it is like a ghost is constantly. Tell me what's going on in this village?"
Su Peng said to the faint female figure.
"Even if the young master doesn't ask, I'll say it...Young master listens slowly to me."
"My original surname is Tian, and I am from Liangzhou. I traveled to the world with my brother, and I also knew some magic tricks to exorcise ghosts and communicate with spirits. The reason is that my father... My missing father was addicted to Taoism and had been obsessed with for many years. When I was still in my infancy, I abandoned my brother and I and became Taoist priests. I have not heard from for more than ten years, and my mother died early. It was my brother who pulled me up. The hardships of the two orphans, I think the young master could imagine.
"But when I was thirteen years old, a Taoist priest from Youfang came to beg for food. We had nothing at home, but we also invited him and our brother and sister to have coarse grains. When the Taoist priest left, he demonstrated several Taoist methods to us and left two other secret techniques for spiritual communication. Ten taels of gold disappeared... My brother recognized the words, understood the secret techniques of spiritual communication, and learned some extraordinary methods. He also taught me."
Su Peng nodded and said, "That Taoist is yours..."
"That's right, my brother and I thought about it later. But I realized that Taoist You Fang was a little like my missing father... He didn't recognize us. He came back with these methods and abandoned us."
"After my skills were successful, by chance, I got another medical scripture, learned some medical skills, followed my brother in the world, but had some small ways to diagnose diseases. My life was a little bumpy, but it was quite satisfactory, but I didn't expect that when I was in the mountains and forests near Zhangjia Village, I was caught by a robber. My brother was caught off guard and was shot to death by a cold arrow. The robbers wanted to insult me, but I was unwilling to be insulted, so I jumped off the cliff and wanted to die, but I didn't expect that I was seriously injured and saved by Zhang Musheng from Zhangjia Village."
"Apart from a father with unknown whereabouts, I only have my brother and relatives. My brother died. I have no support in the world. I was a little worried, but I was moved by Zhang Musheng's careful care. After he healed, I married him and settled in this Zhangjia Village."
"But, I found something unusual in this Zhangjia Village..."
When Su Peng heard the female ghost say this, he thought to himself, and said, "You keep talking."
"Well... the cause was that when the villagers of Zhangjia Village were farming, they accidentally discovered a single-footed stone man in the field, and seven stone coffins..."
"I already know some Feng Shui techniques, but after listening to this setting, I felt something was wrong."
"A single-eyed stone man with seven-mouthed stone coffin, according to my knowledge, should be a setting to suppress Feng Shui. The stone man should have the meaning of suppressing the seven evil spirits above the stone coffin. This pattern should have been a pattern to suppress the extremely evil places."
"After this reminder, I looked at the pattern of Zhangjia Village and found that Zhangjia Village was actually an extremely evil place where the seven evil spirits gathered!"
"According to this pattern, this place should be a deserted mountain, with no grass growing, and it is easy to raise evil spirits. If the ancestors are buried here, the back should be plagued by evil spirits for a lifetime, and the descendants must be cut off."
"But the people in Zhangjia Village have lived here for generations, but no abnormalities have been found. Many family cemeteries are here, but nothing happened. I guess it is because some experts use sarcophagus and stone people to suppress this effect."
"And, a stone man with seven sarcophagus is definitely not enough, it should be seven times the number."
"I told my husband this, but because he was not believed by the village chief because he was a little slight person. I am another woman..."
"At this time, a group of people came to the village and threatened to buy the stone man's sarcophagus at a high price."
"Oh?" Su Peng heard this and vaguely guessed something, saying, "Maybe this group of people caused the later..."
"My benefactor is keen. I felt that they were wrong at that time, but I was unable to stop them. With a heavy reward, all the villages in Zhangjia Village began to look for stone man sarcophagus, and finally, they found two other places."
Su Peng shook his head and said, "Three of the seven suppression objects were discovered, and no matter how high the master is, it is not easy to use."
"Yes, at this time, an abnormality suddenly appeared in the village."
"For no reason, a plague broke out in all three villages. The disease was particularly severe. If you get infected for less than two days, you will be bedridden and die in seven days."
"I have learned medical skills and cannot bear to see the trouble of my fellow villagers, so I did some treatment. But the plague was too severe and I fell ill soon. My psychic skills couldn't help me. After seven days,..."
"The people in the village burned the bodies of all the dead people, and my body was cremated... My ashes were placed at home by my husband, and a jade pendant I wore during my lifetime was placed in the urn. However, I didn't expect that although the psychic technique could not save me, my soul and intelligence were not destroyed after death, and gradually became clear."
"I wanted to say my last farewell to my husband, so I entered the samsara, but I was in the village, but I was shocked to find that at some point, the village was filled with evil spirits. My soul could not enter the samsara at all. Instead, I was impressed by a fierce evil spirit and turned into an unjust soul!"
After hearing this, Su Peng raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is it the Feng Shui pattern of the Yinsha Land?"
"Not that, it's **... After I became a spirit body, I witnessed the entire Zhangjia Village. In a month, everyone suffered from plague and became a dead land. The souls of the dead villagers could not enter the cycle of reincarnation. Instead, they were constantly affected by the evil spirit, lost their spiritual wisdom, turned into ghosts, wandering in the village. Even my husband died of illness."
"In a real village, I am the only one who maintains consciousness because of practicing secret techniques. The jade pendant in the urn was left by the Taoist priest of the Youfang that year, and it has magical effects. It allows my spiritual body to escape the disaster."
"When the entire Zhangjia Village was about to die, the people who once purchased the stone man's sarcophagus at high prices came again... This time, they revealed their true purpose."
After hearing this, Su Peng said, "Is it the poison they used?"
"It is... they actually set up a vicious magic array in the entire Zhangjia Village. Under the influence of the vicious magic array, all souls could not leave the village. In addition, they could also refine the power of the Yin Evil into a fierce aura, which was extremely vicious. If they succeed, a large number of ghosts that cannot enter the cycle of reincarnation in the entire Zhangjia Village will turn into evil spirits."
"I had Baoyu's protection, but they didn't notice it. But I heard some of their conversations. I realized that it was them who put the Huo Epidemic virus in the well in the village. I bought the stone man before, with the purpose of breaking the formation pattern of the masters who protected the village, and using the power of the seven evil spirits here to turn the dead people in the village into fierce evil spirits, so that they can catch them and help them abuse them."
"It's a pity that I could do nothing after I knew it... These people set up vicious magic circles and left. It may take three or five years to achieve success. They cannot stay here, but they have added some Qimen magic circles, which can make Zhangjia Village, which has become a ghost domain at night, a dead place that will never be avoided."
Hearing this, Su Peng nodded and said, "I have encountered this Qimen magic circle now. However, for so many years, why hasn't the wronged souls here been transformed into that fierce evil?"
"I'm sorry to see... I was trapped in this village by this vicious magic circle... The souls of the villagers in the village are becoming more and more fierce. It is logical that they should have turned into evil spirits long ago, but the suppression method left by the master back then had a backup plan. When the Yinsha power here became more and more powerful, I felt that there was a counter-force nearby, which was unexpected by those evil people, and they restrained the Yinsha power."
"The protective effect of my treasure jade is only about a meter. If I go out, I will be attacked by the unjust soul who has lost my intelligence. In this way... I have been trapped here for three years and have seen many people who accidentally broke into the village die tragically, but I have no choice but to know when it will be a relief."
"But, just now, I saw the young master, not only could I see the spirit body, but also had the means to kill and dissipate. So I took the initiative to invite the young master to listen to my statement, just to ask the young master for something, can I break the vicious magic array in this village?"
This female ghost of the Tian family finally explained the causes and consequences clearly.
In the lower left corner of Su Peng's vision, a line of prompts appeared: "Do you take over the task of Zhang Tian's entrusting the 'rescue of the unjust soul of Zhangjia Village'?"
When Su Peng saw this, he felt aroused and thought in his heart.
"Although there is a saying that goes, the female ghost said quite in line with the causes and consequences. And I feel that the aura on her body has indeed more spiritual energy, which seems to be a Taoist method, and what she says is not like a lie. What needs to be paid attention to is only some consequences."
Thinking of this, Su Peng asked the female ghost: "I ask you, if I destroy the vicious magic circle, what will happen to the wronged souls in this village? Without restrictions, wouldn't they wander everywhere?"
"Without the control of the vicious magic array, the souls of the villagers will feel the power of reincarnation. In addition, there is also a broken method to suppress Yinsha. It is very likely that it will resist the power of Yinsha and directly enter the reincarnation."
The female ghost Zhang Tian said, Su Peng pondered for a while after hearing this. At least hundreds of unjust souls in these villages are all experience values...
Seeing Su Peng's appearance, the female ghost said again: "Young Master, if the souls of the villagers can rest in peace, I am willing to pass on the secret technique I practiced to the young master. And I will also ask the young master to take the precious jade in my urn. I have been a ghost for so long, and I have been lonely enough. If the young master can break through the vicious magic circle in the mountain village, I will enter the cycle of reincarnation with my husband's wronged soul."
After hearing this, Su Peng thought about it in his heart.
"The mission reward is very obvious, it is the two volumes of psychic secret techniques and a jade pendant with mysterious functions. It seems to be a little thin. If I kill those unjust souls, I can get at least about 100,000 practical experience, which seems not very cost-effective..."
From the perspective of income, there are two volumes of psychic secret techniques that do not know the specific purpose... I heard from Zhang Tianshi that she and her brother died so simply, it should not be a psychic technique to attack thunder... In addition, a potentially useful treasure is indeed not affordable by 100,000 practical experience.
"But the account cannot be calculated like this... According to previous mission experience, the task rewards in this game will not at least not cause the player to suffer losses. After hearing what the female ghost said, the current task triggering conditions for rescuing the wronged souls in Zhangjia Village are also very strict. At least you must be able to deal with ordinary wronged souls to get here. You must also be able to see the female ghost of Zhang Tian before you can go ahead. Generally speaking, the rewards for this situation are more than the rewards for killing monsters directly..."
According to Su Peng's game experience, the more harsh the trigger conditions are, the more reason it has. The more tortuous the tasks, the richer the rewards are, especially for some continuous tasks.
Su Peng thought, and suddenly, his eyes lit up.
"If I change my thinking, I may not be able to kill monsters if I have experience... If I really break the vicious formation in this village and hundreds of wronged souls re-enter the cycle of reincarnation, this can be regarded as a kind of purification... If I purify hundreds of wronged souls, will I give me experience as a practical operator? And the person who sets up the formation has unknown origins, or will not inspire other tasks?"
After thinking of this, Su Peng felt that his thoughts were instantly clear.
Taking a deep breath, Su Peng looked at the Zhang Tian's spirit body and said, "It's not that simple to do this. Tell me, what are the dangers and resistances?"
I heard Zhang Tian’s spiritual body say: “Although I am trapped here, the spiritual eyes can observe the nearby villages. “I thanked the young master for his righteousness before… The evil magic array is very complicated, but the array eyes are the thirteen sarcophagus brought back to the village by the evil people. They are in the three villages, each with three at both ends, and seven sarcophagus in the middle. This is where the array eyes are located, but benefactor is careful. Over the years, although most of the souls of the villagers have only become unjust souls, there are still several souls that have obtained the power of the evil spirit and become evil. It is very difficult to deal with. The young master is more careful.”
"How about the wronged soul?"
"It is faster and more tenacious than the wronged soul, and can affect people's spiritual consciousness at a certain distance, making people fall into a terrifying nightmare... However, the young master seems to have a special physique. I feel that the yang energy in the young master is extremely strong and hyperactive. As far as I know, the young master's physique is extremely resistant to the evil spirits' capturing skills, and more than 90% will not be controlled. With the young master's strange swordsmanship, it can be firmly defeated by a single evil spirit, and two can also deal with it, and more than three can be bad."
"But don't worry, the evil spirit is different from ordinary unjust souls. They only live in magic weapons hidden in the array eye sarcophagus. As long as they don't destroy too many sarcophagus at one time, they will not encounter more than two."
Su Peng thought about it and compared the abilities of the wronged souls, the abilities of the evil spirits that are in the same area and most exist in the same area will not be too outrageous. After calculating the gains and losses, he felt that the hidden rewards of this task were worth taking a risk and had a great success.
Thinking of this, he:
"In this way, it's not necessary to help you once. How can I destroy the vicious magic circles among the three villages?"
"I have some small spells to tell the young master the location of the array eye."
Zhang Tian's spiritual body said, and as he said, a ray of light shot out from her body and fell on Su Peng.
Su Peng instantly felt that he knew the location of the thirteen sarcophagus in his consciousness and knew the method of cracking it.
Su Peng nodded and said, "I will be careful."
After saying that, Su Peng took a deep breath and headed towards the formation in the village.
There are three sarcophagus in the village where Zhang Tian is located. According to the information she conveyed to Su Peng, the three sarcophagus are two exits in the early village and the middle of the village.
Su Peng had cleaned the exit close to this side, and there were not many unjust souls. Su Peng easily found the first sarcophagus.
The sarcophagus was placed in the first house in the village. After Su Peng entered, he found that this was the magic circle.
I saw a coffin two and a half meters long and wide, lying quietly in the middle of the house. Around the sarcophagus, there was a circular magic array. I don’t know how to arrange the magic array. A circle on the ground was all symbols that Su Peng couldn’t understand.
“Huh?”
Looking at the symbols on the ground, Su Peng couldn't understand them, but he felt a little familiar.
Recalling the memories in his mind, the book that was suspected to be possessed by the evil spirit that Gu Jian asked for suddenly collapsed from the secret room in Gu Jian Villa, and the tattoos with the same words as those of Gu Jian himself.
Seeing this, Su Peng believed what Zhang Tian said again.
"Is this... the masterpiece of that group of people? It's their technique..." Looking at the magic circle runes on the ground, Su Peng thought so in his mind.
