Chapter 375: Chapter 375 Bao Guang (Last Month’s Bonus Chapter for Monthly Tickets)

"Is this... a coffin?"

Heihe Daoist clenched the horsetail whisk Magic Artifact, his voice trembling, "Why... why is it so... eerie?"

Thud thud!

Thud thud!

A series of muffled knocks pulled everyone’s thoughts back to reality.

Yuan Kong Monk looked dazed, as if he had seen the Buddha, continuously kowtowing.

His bald head heavily hit the stone tiles, making a dull sound, like a bell being struck.

In just an instant, his forehead was bloody and mangled, showing stark white bone.

"Giggle, giggle!"

Zhong Shenxiu heard the sound of teeth chattering.

He glanced sideways and saw Lu Jianping’s face had turned pale with fear, but suddenly he gritted his teeth and shouted, "The world has righteous energy!"

Scholars possessed a scholarly aura, and if one truly understood a classic text and grasped its three essences, he could cultivate a vast and righteous energy.

Such energy, when shouted, could effortlessly deal with ordinary wicked yin ghosts.

But at this moment, Yuan Kong Monk’s movements did not stop for even a fraction, which made Heihe Daoist’s scalp tingle.

Zhong Shenxiu could awaken them both with the true Daoist Thunder Sound.

Although this scholar also had a bit of that vast and righteous energy, how could a drop of water extinguish a large fire, or a flame burn an ocean?

Bang!

After another heavy strike, Yuan Kong Monk remained in his kowtowing posture, frozen in place and motionless.

"He’s dead..."

Heihe Daoist’s expression suddenly turned resolute, and he waved his horsetail whisk.

Thousands of fine threads suddenly expanded, trapping everything around like a spider web.

Threads of silver appeared, trapping the coffin.

"This poor Daoist’s Dragon-Breaking Horsetail Whisk, made from the skin of a hundred-year-old python and the silk of a demonic spider, specializes in conquering yin ghostly entities!"

Heihe Daoist had just spoken a few words when he suddenly shut his mouth.

He saw his horsetail whisk breaking inch by inch until only a bare handle was left, his face suddenly becoming extremely contorted, "Damn this coffin, all of my worldly possessions were in that!"

Thud thud!

At this moment, that strange knocking sound started again.

Zhong Shenxiu pulled Lu Jianping, shook the white banner, and a puff of black smoke immediately emerged, blocking out the external sounds.

"This fellow Daoist... I didn’t expect you to be so wealthy, this Magic Artifact, having been imbued with at least three layers of prohibitions, is truly a fine piece."

After his mana broke down, Heihe Daoist quickly came over seeking protection.

Zhong Shenxiu wrapped the surroundings with the black smoke, his expression extremely ’solemn’.

Boom!

The next moment, a shockwave hit the black smoke, distorting it and dispersing some of it.

It was as if a fierce beast from outside was attempting to break through this shaky layer of protection.

"It’s going to break, it’s going to break."

Lu Jianping watched as the black fog thinned, his face showing a look of panic.

"Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid."

Zhong Shenxiu laughed loudly and shook the broken-mouthed white banner in his hand, immediately producing another puff of black smoke to fill the gap, "Let’s go."

Four had come, but now only three were fleeing the courtyard in disarray.

Snap!

After the door closed, Heihe Daoist, with a speed akin to a ravenous dog, picked up the torn yellow talismans from the ground and slapped one on the door, muttering under his breath, "Please forgive me, Master, if there’s any blame, please don’t blame your disciple, don’t blame your disciple!"

Snap!

The fierce impact came.

The next moment, the talisman combusted spontaneously, the door burst open, striking Heihe Daoist’s forehead, sending him flying backwards, his head bleeding profusely.

"Ouch... it hurts your poor old Daoist to death."

Heihe Daoist scrambled and crawled, hiding behind Zhong Shenxiu, "Fellow Daoist, save me."

"This coffin’s resentment is concentrated and does not dissipate, it’s extraordinary... It doesn’t seem like a natural coincidence, rather it seems intentionally arranged."

Zhong Shenxiu shook his banner, speaking solemnly, "What ’flower-picking thief Yin God entering dreams,’ there is a major issue here."

"To resolve the resentment, the best method is to find the real culprit!"

Lu Jianping’s eyes lit up, "What Daoist Xianyun said, could it be implying that the real culprit is still within this manor? It makes sense... Only someone close could have caused Miss Mei Rui to conceive in secret."

He quickly turned his brain, recalling the scenes from before, the image of He Weng, Zhang Tiezhong, and faces of various shapes and colors surfaced one after another.

"Who is the real culprit?!"

"If we don’t find out soon, I fear this coffin will destroy the entire manor, even the whole village..."

"He Weng is old and frail, unlikely... Could it be Zhang Tiezhong? This man, as the protector, has martial arts, vigorous and forceful..."

"Besides him, any adult male who could have come into contact with the young lady, all are suspects..."

Lu Jianping inwardly cursed his lack of talent as a constable, unable to figure out who the real culprit was in such a short time.

"Why bother finding the real culprit?"

Until now having coldly observed, Zhong Shenxiu suddenly sneered, "I see that within this house, there is no one who is not wronged!"

"What did you say?"

Lu Jianping stared at Zhong Shenxiu in shock, just as he saw Daoist Xianyun shake his banner, a stream of dark smoke soared into the sky, spreading rapidly in all directions.

Dark chains shot out like venomous snakes, precisely striking each of the servants, maids, and even various masters and mistresses.

Instantly, multitudes of yin souls were directly grasped and absorbed into the banner, transforming into countless faces.

Some screamed in pain, some pleaded, and others cursed, a variety of responses.

"This... this..."

Lu Jianping and Heihe Daoist were both frightened silly.

At a stroke, to capture the souls of everyone in the manor, what level of cultivation was that?

Zhong Shenxiu ignored them, directly inputting a spell, a layer of dark flames emerged on the banner surface, burning these souls.

"No..."

"Damn it..."

"Spare us..."

"It was all the old master’s doing, it has nothing to do with us..."

Zhong Shenxiu looked on indifferently as Zhang Tiezhong’s face went from pleading to fierce, then disappeared...

He then saw the elder-like He Weng, who clearly possessed some cultivation, but that bit of mana was as negligible as a firefly, easily crushed.

In a moment, the entire estate was extinguished.

Zhong Shenxiu unemotionally dispelled the black smoke and, unsurprisingly, saw that same coffin, still lingering around, unwilling to leave.

"The resentment persists, you killed the wrong person."

Lu Jianping clasped his wrist and sighed.

"Being wrong doesn’t matter, just keep killing."

Zhong Shenxiu, with a smile playing on his lips, glanced around, muttering to himself, "This family has connections to the master of Heihe Daoist, in that case, Daoist, you can’t escape responsibility."

No sooner had the words left his mouth than Heihe Daoist thought of running.

But Zhong Shenxiu reached out and grabbed him, five streams of dark energy formed into a giant hand, directly seizing Heihe Daoist, pulling out his soul.

With a slight refinement, it also scattered to nothingness.

Lu Jianping, watching this scene, collapsed to the ground in fright.

Just then, he saw the coffin suddenly stop its movements, no longer ferocious.

Suddenly, it seemed like a chorus of Buddha echoed in his ears:

"Suffering is boundless, turn back the shore!"

Suddenly, the surroundings turned hazy, buildings dissolved, and the area turned into a jungle.

Among the dense foliage, the corner of a yellow-roofed temple slowly came into sight.

It was a ruined temple, with a plaque that unmistakably read—’Baoguang Temple’!
