To know a word is to works

Expensive car accident

    

was friend or foe. They might not even know about my relationship with Mu Wanchen, so it's best to say less for now."What are you doing" he asked, staring at me."I met two people from the two differe...The old woman frowned at the moment she heard the three words "corpse refiners."

"Don't lump us together with those who raise the dead, we are different… The bodies we collect are ownerless, and we treat them with respect. We don't use them to harm people, and we care for them well... Even Xiao Jiao'er was only allowed to serve my son after he properly married her in death." The old woman spoke slowly.

Actually, whether it's raising corpses or ghosts, refining corpses or souls, they are all entanglements between the living and the dead.

The old woman raised her hand towards the female corpse, and the corpse strained to bend its knee and kneel at her legs.

"What does it matter if she's alive... She's not as considerate as my dead daughter... My foolish son often hurts the little girl, but the little girl hasn't even left a scratch on him, even though she's much stronger. Such a fool, unable to speak, you wouldn't hurt him..." The old woman lovingly patted the corpse-woman's head.

"Look, we live with corpses all day long. Isn't that the same as being dead"

"We raise corpses to allow ourselves to be tainted by corpse qi, thus protecting ourselves. After all, our family is in the business of dealing with corpses, and my husband also has a spirit wife he made a pact with since childhood. However, that spirit woman was burned when she broke away from the old ways… Ah, if she hadn't been burned, my husband could have lived for several more years."

I swallowed nervously, how did the plot take such a turn It's obviously a disgusting thing, yet it sounds kind of tragic and beautiful

My brother secretly pinched me and, turning his head, whispered, "Listen only to half of what he says, don't believe it all. Let's get to the real business."

Yes, yes, yes, people say ghost stories are endless and can't be trusted. These people who have been in the Yin-Yang world their whole lives, most of them are more cunning than ghosts themselves, so you can't believe everything they say.

My brother meant for me to play the victim. He, a little greasy guy, wouldn't have much effect playing the victim. This is where I, his partner with negative acting skills, come in to save the day.

"That... grandma." I poked my head out from behind my brother and tried to butter up the old woman.

The old woman's eyes flickered obviously, she was up to something!

"Grandma, two zombies hurt my brother before and tried to take me away to give birth to a child for their "corpse king"... Later, two more zombies used the skull of a stillborn baby to harm people. I captured the spirit of the fetus... We have a big grudge against them now, and their village is planning to capture us. But we know nothing about them, not even how to deal with zombies. You're an expert in raising corpses, could you teach us"

The old woman squinted at me and asked, “Is your dead husband quite a formidable ghost”

I nodded.

"Didn't he teach you"

Jiang Qiyun teach me This kind of thing I wouldn't even dare to think about. That guy only speaks when he scolds me, saying a few more words than usual. When we normally talk, I have to listen half the time and guess the other half.

Look at me shaking my head like a rattle, the old woman smiled smugly: “Boy, girl, you both understand some Taoism, so you should know that the fastest way to turn a ghost into an evil spirit is to torture him… The same goes for refining corpses. Use sorcery repeatedly to torture the body and fill it with resentment. If the soul hasn't dissipated, then even better.”

I couldn't help but ask, "Why is it better"

"As long as the soul is present, evil spirits can be forged to inhabit the skeletal remains. And with the spirit, the flexibility and strength of the corpse become even more perfect."

The soul and spirit are one of the main topics discussed within this circle.

There's a saying called "hun fei po san" (魂飛魄散), why isn't it "po fei hun san" (魄飛魂散)

Taoism refers to the three souls as *Tai Guang*, *Shuang Ling*, and *You Jing*, which can also be simply called Heaven Soul, Earth Soul, and Life Soul. Of these, Heaven and Earth Souls are always outside the body, while only the Life Soul resides within. Even after leaving the body, the Life Soul can still wander about. However, the Seven Poes gradually dissipate as bodily functions cease until a new body forms, at which point the Poes will gather again. Therefore, there is also the saying that the soul belongs to Yin and the Poes belong to Yang.

There was a vengeful, sky-piercing spirit of an aborted fetus on the previous skeletal remains. Wherever it went, it caused people to feel agitated and irritable, leading to conflicts and bloodshed. Even police officers in their uniforms were overwhelmed by its resentment and fainted.

“The most effective way to deal with zombies is to destroy their bodies… Common methods include the Palm Thunder Technique, Peach Wood Sword, and Universe-Shifting Sword. You can also use some mundane methods like virgin boy urine and black dog blood… Hey, kid, are you a virgin” she suddenly asked my brother.

My brother was stunned for a moment, then shook his head quickly and said: "Of course not! I'm twenty-three years old this year, am I still a virgin Are you cursing me Even if I were a virgin, I wouldn't marry your 'youngest daughter'. Give up on this idea!"

The old lady huffed and puffed, my brother this little slick fellow was simply impervious to everything.

“Some sects like to use glutinous rice to ward off evil spirits, ink and garlic, as well as Buddhist artifacts and Taoist amulets… These can all deal with the walking corpses. You get used to them, so you won’t be afraid.” The old woman coughed lightly and said, “My son came back today, gave me some money, and moved a lot of grain and rice flour. He said he was going out to avoid the limelight… This stinky boy, even while running for his life, still doesn't forget to take advantage of his little sweetheart… Do you know why he ran away”

“You see… those zombies suspected him of being with us and they fought with him, even throwing him out of the car. His injuries are all from them.” I quickly distanced myself, afraid this old woman would blame us.

The old woman let out a cold snort: "You useless little brats... Let me tell you, there are people manipulating these zombies behind the scenes. They must be very influential, otherwise how could they get so many corpses! Those corpses processed with Nine Aperture Jade are signals. The hospital director knows it all! You'd better just take care of yourselves and keep your lives. Don't even think about going against them!"

My brother and I looked at each other, our little Mu family had no social standing. Besides, they were in the shadows while we were out in the open. We could easily dodge a bullet, but it's hard to guard against a hidden arrow. What should we do

Before my brother and Da Bao left, they helped move all the jars back into their storage containers. The old lady watched them work diligently and slowly said: "Next time you come, remember to ring the doorbell three long rings and two short ones, I'll know it's you."

Three long, two short That signal is really ominous.

On the way back, my brother was a little spaced out from what we had seen tonight. Dabao was also scared and too quiet to talk. The atmosphere in the car was heavy and somber.

Under the influence of this negative emotion, we unfortunately got into a car accident!

To say the accident was a bit exaggerated is an understatement. There was this black, extended luxury sedan in front of me that suddenly changed lanes. My brother was spaced out at the time, looking like he'd been defiled by frozen pork, completely lifeless and unmoving. He just froze and crashed into it.

The taillights of the long car were smashed, and my brother was also startled.

Da Bao took one look at the car and exclaimed, "Chrysler lengthened version! This must be a custom-imported car! Young Master, your kick is worth at least 200,000 yuan!"

My brother, with tears in his eyes but unable to cry, helplessly said: "There's no other way. I can only rely on my handsomeness and wit... to cry poor. Rich people like this shouldn't mind this little money, right"

He got out of the car and walked toward the driver's side, politely tapping on the window.

I saw the car window slowly lower a slit.

A gaping black maw appeared — them Not too many, not too few, right""Oh, and the tongue I heard that some kids have 'tongue-tie', they have to cut that little piece of flesh, otherwise their tongues will be big later...""And—"Mu...
