Chapter 35 The Zhang Family!
Lu Yuan's pupils contracted again as his gaze shifted downwards.
Her lips were sewn shut with a dark red thread.
That's not a line.
Upon closer inspection, the silk threads revealed subtle shimmers of five colors: blue, red, white, black, and yellow.
It is a "Five Elements Soul Sealing Thread" soaked in black dog blood and crow feather ash, and made by kneading corpse oil.
The direction of the stitches forms a reverse-written "silence symbol".
On either side of the corner of the mouth, there is a black dot made of a mixture of coffin nail rust and mercury sand.
Dumb door nail.
With coffin nails, the acupoints that could produce sound were permanently nailed shut.
Even more insidious was her noticeably concave mouth.
The tongue was cut off at the root.
Lu Yuan could even imagine the scene at that time...
Several years after her death, her body was exhumed, and she was first given a potion to make her mute. Then her tongue was cut off to ensure that she would be forever mute from the world of the living to the world of the dead.
This is not finished.
A thin, gossamer-thin silencing cloth was still pressed against her lips.
This silk was made from the lining of the burial garment of an unmarried girl who died young. Twisted incantations were written on it using rusted coffin nails, fish glue, and centipede venom from the tomb.
The eerie wind cannot blow it away, nor can the ghosts and gods be questioned.
This prevented her from uttering a single word of grievance in the face of any being.
The entire process is called "Throat Lock and Mouth Closure Prison".
Seeing this horrifying scene, for some reason, Lu Yuan didn't feel disgust, fear, or terror...
On the contrary... I feel sorry for her.
What...what crime has she committed to deserve this?!
Did she commit some heinous crime?
Did she do something truly outrageous?
Wasn't she just a kind-hearted 20-year-old girl who was washing clothes by the river when she saw a child fall into the water and jumped in to save him?
She saved the child, but she died.
It's just doing a good deed!
Why...why was she treated like this after she died?
It should be noted that this ghost marriage was not arranged when she died.
They only came to her door two or three years after her death.
Therefore, this insidious act of gouging out eyes and severing ties was done two or three years after her death, by digging up her grave and opening her coffin.
She was already dead by then!
He's been dead for two or three years!
Why resort to such insidious tactics?!
Lu Yuan's eyes no longer held fear or disgust, but only endless pity.
And... a burning, searing... rage.
Looking down at the scene below, Lu Yuan let out a weak, melancholy sigh...
Her legs were cleanly severed from the mid-thigh down.
The cross-section was unusually smooth, covered with a thick layer of "Zhenzu San" (a traditional Chinese medicine formula) consisting of lime mixed with iron sand and soot from the bottom of a pot.
Before cutting it off, a red rope soaked in children's urine and talisman water is used to bind the area above the knees seven times, corresponding to the "seven souls".
This is a technique that "cuts off all paths," eliminating her chance to "run back to her parents' home" and file a complaint.
This also meant that in the underworld, she could only rely on and follow her husband's soul-guiding banner to "walk".
In reality, she is being held back by her husband's soul power, and will never be able to control herself.
Her major acupoints include the center of her forehead, throat, chest, dantian, and the cut surface of her severed limb.
Each of them was pressed down with a "talismanic coin" that had been soaked in corpse oil and engraved with the husband's birth date and time.
Beneath her bright red wedding dress, her undergarments were all worn inside out, and all the buttons were knotted tightly.
The right hand is twisted into a strange position, with the thumb tightly clenched in the palm and the four fingers curled up. This is the "broom-holding technique".
It symbolizes that she will forever hold a broom in the underworld and serve her husband's family.
The entire interior of the coffin resembled a meticulously designed and cruelly executed "underworld slave-making ritual."
Every detail is imbued with the ultimate fear, control, and objectification of Gu Qingwan's soul.
They attempted to achieve the "submission" she could not fulfill in the mortal realm through the most cruel physical mutilation and the most vicious witchcraft spells.
Eternity is etched upon the form of her soul.
In the night breeze, the cold moonlight in the night sky made the scene inside the coffin appear even more eerie.
The shadows of withered mulberry branches swayed on the coffin, like countless hands trying to grasp something.
call--!
A cold wind howled past.
Then a blood-red figure silently landed behind Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan turned around and looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar blood-red figure.
That was how she originally looked.
That breathtakingly beautiful yet icy face reappeared before Lu Yuan.
She is so beautiful.
Even after becoming a super-fierce 20-star monster, she was still incredibly beautiful.
Even if an ordinary person becomes an evil spirit, their soul will still look sinister and terrifying because they have become an evil spirit.
But apart from her eerie, scarlet eyes, she was still beautiful.
Such a beautiful and kind-hearted girl.
But this woman died at the age of twenty.
He died saving someone else.
And there are no stories of good people being rewarded.
Then, right after her death, her home was gone too.
My younger brother was murdered, and my parents became mentally unstable.
Lu Yuan looked at Gu Qingwan with a face full of pity.
Gu Qingwan floated in mid-air, quietly scrutinizing Lu Yuan.
When Lu Yuan first met Gu Qingwan, he was filled with a mix of emotions: fear, doubt, curiosity...
But now there is only one.
Distressed.
Lu Yuan had previously said that one should not discuss feelings with evil spirits.
Lu Yuan had previously said that her current "goodness" was not genuine, but rather that she was a super-fierce woman who could erupt at any moment and become ruthless towards her family.
Lu Yuan understands everything, Lu Yuan knows everything.
But Lu Yuan just felt sorry for him.
After staring at Gu Qingwan for a few seconds, Lu Yuan took a deep breath.
He forcibly suppressed the surging pity and righteous indignation in his heart.
He resolutely turned his head to look at Gu Qingwan herself inside the coffin.
His gaze became focused and sharp again.
First, wipe away that most venomous curse from your forehead!
Then break all these insidious tricks!
Finally, they gave Gu Qingwan eyes, a new tongue, and a new leg!
Lu Yuan composed himself and took out a flat jade box from his satchel.
Upon opening, inside is a small ball of "Jinglingzhi," which is warm and smooth like ointment and emits a faint fragrance.
This product is made with Tian Shan snow lotus stamens, rootless morning dew, and glutinous rice paste aged for more than three years.
It is made with the essence of 49 kinds of herbs that calm the mind and soothe the nerves.
It is the best choice for purifying filth, calming resentment, and gently dissolving negative energy, making it the first choice for dealing with this type of negative seal.
This is also what Lu Yuan can be most proud of right now!
Lu Yuan carefully picked up a small piece of Pure Spirit Oil with silver tweezers, held his breath and concentrated, and slowly injected a trace of his gentle true Qi into it.
When the oil is stimulated by the Qi, a soft, milky-white halo appears on its surface.
It exudes a fresher, more natural scent, even dispelling some of the cloying, rotten smell of decay in the surroundings.
With an extremely steady wrist, Lu Yuan gently touched the shimmering, purifying essence to the core of the talisman on the female corpse's forehead.
The first stroke of the character "永".
The moment the cream touches the skin.
A sudden change has occurred!
The characters, which had already turned black, suddenly seemed to come alive and burst forth!
Countless fine blood vessels burst forth from the strokes of the brush.
It wasn't a hand rushing towards Lu Yuan, but rather like a living root, it firmly "bite" onto that bit of Pure Spirit Fat!
"laugh--!"
A violent corrosive sound rang out, and the milky white halo was instantly stained red and swallowed up!
The fragrant purifying resin turned charred and hard in the blink of an eye, turning into a clump of foul-smelling black ash that fell from the tip of the tweezers.
Lu Yuan took a half step back with the tweezers in his hand, his face slightly pale, his eyes filled with shock and solemnity.
this?!!
This spell... can actually devour the thing that broke his spell!
The underworld incantations, bloodline bindings, and earth vein connections contained within it are almost heretical!
This spell...
With his current level of cultivation, this spell...
It can't be wiped off.
It cannot be shaken in the slightest.
The cold moonlight shone on a person, a ghost, and a coffin, silently facing each other before the lonely grave.
Lu Yuan stood with his back to the blood-red figure, remaining silent for a long time.
Suddenly, Lu Yuan stood up.
Come back home!
Go home and find your old man!
