Liao Zhai's Refining God

Chapter 40 The Water Ghost
The next day, Wang Lin went to the Earth Temple to burn a copybook for the God of the Land, and at the same time told her that she wanted to start cleaning up the ghosts. That night, the God of the Land replied to Wang Lin through sound transmission in her dream, saying that she would do it in three days , He is meeting old friends these few days and has no time.Naturally, Wang Lin didn't have any objections. After all, these ghosts were all earth-bound spirits and couldn't leave.

Through the sound transmission in the dream of the God of Land, Wang Lin knew that this was a kind of magic technique he used. He didn't come here, but he could only use it within his jurisdiction.

"Hmm, my son, how can you survive as a mother. Huh!" But Wang Lin was studying in the study, when she heard heart-piercing cries from outside.

"What's going on?" Wang Lin couldn't help but walk out of the study to ask Aunt Cui in the courtyard when she heard such heart-wrenching cries.

"Poor thing, that's the widow Qin in the East Lane of the village. Although she's a bit disobedient and likes to attract bees and butterflies, it's not for her own life. The second baby passed away early, leaving orphans and widows behind. There is still hope for the half-year-old, who would have thought that at noon today, her half-year-old secretly went ice skating in Hutou Lake, but the ice layer broke, sank into the pool and drowned. Oh, what a crime!" Aunt Cui burst into tears Whirling Road.

Wang Lin's heart trembled when she heard this, and she walked out of the small courtyard and walked along the downhill road in the village. At this time, a group of people were surrounded under the big mulberry tree. Throwing on the cold body of the child and crying, he passed out several times, and the people beside him pinched and beat his chest in a hurry to wake him up, and tried to persuade him, but the woman kept crying .

"Oh, what a crime. This is the ninth one. Whoever dares to go to Hutoutan must be the victim of the water ghost." Someone muttered in a low voice.

"Yes, that night I dreamed about the Earth Lord, saying don't let the children play there, there are water ghosts that will harm people." Someone immediately echoed.

"It's the daughter of the family at the west end of the village, who died injustice and haunts the Hutou Lake. But you have to watch out for your baby, you can't go there during the day, and you can't get close at night." Someone said.

Wang Lin listened with a heavy heart, and even felt guilty. There is no doubt that this was caused by some water ghost. If she had done it in advance, maybe such a thing would not have happened.Today's weather is still relatively cold. The sun at Hutoutan can't shine, and it is relatively cold. The ice layer should be very thick, and it will definitely not be able to bear the weight of a child. Why does the ice layer crack? Absolutely not natural phenomenon.Wang Lin bypassed the crowd and walked along the Qingsang River towards Hutoutan.

Hutoutan is in the lower reaches of Qingsang River, more than three miles away from Qingsang Village. Qingsang River flows down the mountain stream. Because of a certain slope, the flow speed is relatively fast. Even in this season, you can still see the murmur Water flows over the ice that covers the stone walls.Hutoutan is located at the first pass where the stream passes through the plains. When the summer rains are heavy, the river rushes down and cuts a deep pool. Because the rocks on one side protrude like a tiger's head, it is called Hutoutan.

The water surface of Hutou Lake is small, half the size of a basketball court, but the water rushes in very fast, and you can tell from the sound that the pool is extremely deep.Wang Lin walked here along the mountain road, and turned east from here to pass the intersection of Zhaojia Village. At this time, you can see that the thick ice layer in the middle of the pool has broken a part, and there are still many footprints left on the ice layer. It is estimated that someone just now Go down and fish out the half-sized child that floated up.

Wang Lin strolled onto the ice layer, looked around, and suddenly stepped on the ice with the soles of her feet and shouted softly: "Evil barrier, court death."

Following Wang Lin's words, the Wind and Cloud Steps unfolded, and the blood energy burst out through the soles of the feet, and the true yang energy contained in the blood energy penetrated the ice layer and crashed into the black shadow sneaking under Wang Lin's feet, and the black shadow suddenly let out a scream. , Dissipated in an instant.Of course, ordinary people cannot see all this.

But immediately after, the ice layer cracked in a large area for no reason, and the water surged towards Wang Lin without any wind or waves.Wang Lin tapped the ice surface lightly with her toes, her body instantly rose two meters, and she slid three meters away with the help of a volley and landed on the shore.At this time, the ice layer of the entire pool has been completely broken, and the water waves surged half a meter high. If ordinary people saw this situation, they would be scared to death.

"Evil barrier, you are not afraid of losing your mind if you act so recklessly!" Wang Lin stared at the turbulent water waves and said in a deep voice.Under the observation of Qi Watching Technique, a female ghost can be seen standing on top of the water waves.At this time, the water surface was completely blocked by the cliffs on both sides, and it was in shadow, but even so, the ghost body appeared in broad daylight, which showed that this ghost was already extremely ferocious.

"Hehehe, this territory is mine. I only take one life today, which is already an extrajudicial favor." The female ghost shouted.At this time, his face has become extremely ferocious, looking extremely scary.

"I used to feel pity for you, but today it seems that you are unpardonable!" Wang Lin said coldly.

"What a big tone, even the local land can do nothing to me." The female ghost sternly said.

"Hmph!" Wang Lin didn't say much, and turned to leave.The time to kill this ghost has not yet come, Wang Lin does not have this ability now, unless the pool of water is completely dried, and its inner aura is completely wiped out, but this is very difficult, after all, the Qingsang River is not small Difficult to kill it.It would be difficult to kill her unless the river was diverted and the pool dried up forcing her to show up and kill her.Nowadays, it is difficult to complete with the cultivation base of the land god.

"Little bastard of Master Juren's house, when you admit your weakness, you have the guts to let me down, and we will fight fairly." The female ghost yelled in the pool.

Wang Lin knew that she recognized her, but she ignored her and continued to go back.

"Little brat, I will go to your house sooner or later and devour the souls of your whole family, so that you have no chance of reincarnation!" Seeing that Wang Lin ignored her, the female ghost continued to shout wildly from behind.According to Wang Lin's analysis, his hatred for her family was probably the main reason why she became a ghost. It was probably because of the suppression of the land god that she didn't dare to go to Qingsang Village to make trouble.

"That brat from the widow's house really ruined my big deal!" That night, while Wang Lin was meditating with her eyes closed, a scent of incense came from the room. Wang Lin slowly opened her eyes and saw the distraught Land God. Shi Zheng cursed loudly.

"Old Ancestor, everyone is dead. If you hadn't been playful, you wouldn't have lost your life. Let's make good deeds!" Wang Lin said.

"Damn it, this female ghost has devoured the soul of this child. She has already been promoted to a real ghost at this time. It is even more difficult to kill her in the water. Besides, Qingsang Village is so close, she may come to retaliate at any time, and I am afraid that there will be troubles in the future. At this moment, the God of Earth said dejectedly, ignoring Wang Lin's cynicism.

"Don't worry, she will be eliminated tonight!" Wang Lin said.
