I rely on length to cultivate immortality

It would have been better if Li Xiuchang hadn't asked. As soon as he asked, a trace of blood flowed from the corner of Zhang Wanzhi's mouth.

Li Xiuchang took a look, and the guilt in his heart suddenly dissipated a lot.

I just asked politely, are you really acting?

You are pretending too exaggeratedly, do you want to make me feel more guilty?

Just based on the feeling of the punch on Zhang Wanzhi just now, and the fact that his finger bones are still painful, Li Xiuchang dared to conclude that Zhang Wanzhi must be fine.

Senior Brother Zhang Wanzhi's body feels harder than his!

Zhang Wanzhi may have seen something from Li Xiuchang's expression, and sucked the blood from the corner of his mouth back, saying nonchalantly: "It's okay."

Li Xiuchang also put away the Vajra Dharma behind him as if nothing had happened just now.

The two looked at each other, as if they were both saying: "I know you have a problem."

Then they looked away at the same time, tacitly understanding each other, everything was unspoken.

Li Xiuchang asked first, "Why is Senior Brother here?"

Zhang Wanzhi casually threw the pig demon on the ground, pointed his finger at it and froze it, then replied, "Your Senior Brother Gui calculated that you would be in danger, so I followed you."

"I see, thank you for your trouble, Senior Brothers." Li Xiuchang did not doubt Zhang Wanzhi's words.

But he looked at the pig demon on the ground, and then at the ghost in Zhang Wanzhi's hand...

The pig demon is in the late first stage, and the ghost is in the middle first stage.

What kind of threat can these two things pose to him?

Li Xiuchang is sure that even if Zhang Wanzhi did not take action, his strength as a second-level physical cultivator is enough to suppress these two guys.

When the protective light is turned on, the first-level ghost cannot get close to him, and even a sneak attack cannot succeed.

He can suppress this pig demon with just a flip of his hand.

"It seems that Senior Brother Gui's calculation is not accurate, and he did not calculate my hidden strength at all." Li Xiuchang thought to himself.

At this time, Zhang Wanzhi was also complaining about Gui Wuyan in his heart. From the punch that Li Xiuchang hit him, he could be sure that Li Xiuchang was fully capable of dealing with the pig demon and the ghost, and he didn't need to do anything at all.

What kind of "robbery" is this?

However... Li Xiuchang looked at the ghost in Zhang Wanzhi's hand.

The appearance of the ghost often remains the same as when it died. It was an old man in a Confucian robe, full of bookish air, and looked very knowledgeable.

However, the old man's face at this time had a bit more fierceness, which destroyed his overall elegant temperament.

"This ghost has stayed in the world for too long, and has been gradually eroded by the fierce instincts of the ghost, and its self-awareness has gradually been lost."

Li Xiuchang is at least a half-baked soul master, and he can still see something.

Those who can avoid reincarnation after death and turn into ghosts all have strong obsessions in their lifetime.

If you want these ghosts to reincarnate, you can only help them eliminate their obsessions.

But in fact, most of the obsessions of ghosts cannot be eliminated.

The obsession of ghosts comes from the regrets of their lives.

Regrets that cannot be made up when alive will be even more difficult to make up after death.

For example, the ghost couple next to Li Xiuchang, their regret is that they could not stay together for a long time when they were alive.

Although the ghosts they turned into finally got their wish after death and could stay together day and night, they could no longer have children, grow old together, and enjoy their old age like living people.

This regret can never be made up.

Even if they were allowed to reincarnate, they would not be able to leave each other.

So they can only be ghosts forever, unless one day they can figure it out and have a harmonious state of mind, so that they can enter the reincarnation.

And this is the ghost who follows the soul master. If it is a lonely ghost outside, the fate will be different.

If the ghost stays in the world for a long time, the instinct of the ghost will gradually erode its consciousness until it is swallowed by the evil spirit and completely loses itself.

At that time, it will become a fierce ghost that brings disaster to the world.

Only by following the soul master and relying on the soul master's "raising ghosts" method to regularly clear the evil spirit for them can they maintain self-awareness for a long time.

The ghost that Senior Brother Zhang Wanzhi caught has shown signs of being corroded by evil spirits, and it seems that its self-awareness has gradually become blurred.

Li Xiuchang has already guessed the identity of this ghost, which should be the owner of the pig demon, Mr. Su Qingchun.

"Strange, why can this ghost hide from my perception?" Li Xiuchang wondered.

As a soul control master, Li Xiuchang is more sensitive to the breath of ghosts and evil things than ordinary cultivators. A ghost with a lower realm than him should be able to detect it immediately once it approaches him.

But he didn't notice any evil spirit at all at that time.

Zhang Wanzhi: "This ghost read a lot of sage books during his lifetime, and he has cultivated a righteous spirit. The ghost he turned into after death is therefore purer, without the evil spirit of ordinary ghosts."

Li Xiuchang suddenly realized that it seems that Mr. Su Qingchun is also a man of real talent and knowledge, but he still can't resist the instinctive erosion of ghosts after death.

At this point, Zhang Wanzhi sighed and said, "He is a good candidate for Confucianism, but unfortunately Confucianism has completely declined, and the inheritance has been cut off, making it difficult to find the way."

Zhang Wanzhi handed Su Qingchun's ghost to Li Xiuchang: "You can deal with it."

Li Xiuchang took the ghost and saw that the ghost was in a daze, seemed to be awake and not awake, and seemed difficult to communicate.

The pig demon that was pinned to the ground struggled hard: "What are you going to do with my master? He is a good man, you can't kill him!"

"He is dead." Li Xiuchang said lightly, "Do you know what he was obsessed with before he died?"

The pig demon was stunned for a moment, and said, "The master has many regrets in his life. He failed to pass the imperial examination, failed to realize his ambitions, failed to find a path to Confucianism, and failed to start a family when he was young in order to establish a career. In the end, he failed to establish a career and a family, and when he was old, he had no children to serve him..."

"Okay, no need to continue." Li Xiuchang interrupted.

"It seems that there is no way to send him into reincarnation. He will stay with me in the future. I will clear his evil spirit and maintain his consciousness."

"How can I believe you?"

"Whether you believe me or not, what does it have to do with me?"

Li Xiuchang stepped on the soft belly of the pig demon. The meat felt very good to the touch. He looked down and said:

"Next, tell me about your story so that I can decide how to deal with you."

"What can I say? I am a pig. If I become a demon, I am also a pig demon. I have mainly eaten and slept in my life. In short, I have never killed or eaten anyone. If you think If you think I'm a good demon, you'll let me go."

"Tell me about you and your master. Tell me why you didn't go far away and stayed in Baiyun City to bully the people?"

"There's nothing much to say. I'm just a pig. My master's house is quiet and no one talks to him. He talks to me about family matters every day. Every year at the end of the year, he says he will kill me for the New Year, but every year he says one person can't eat all that pork, so he keeps me, year after year... Later, I accidentally swallowed a spiritual herb and became a demon..."

"In the end, I wasn't served on the table, but my master died of old age first."
