649 Flowers in Bloom

ough things weren't much better, there were definitely plenty of girls in his clan who liked him. I could feel a lot of cold stares cutting into me.I leaned against his shoulder, peeking back at the c...As soon as I uttered the word "miscarriage," the mischievous Greed Wolf quickly stepped in front of me. This little guy is a staunch admirer of Jiang Qiyun!

I patted the glutton's arm, gesturing for him to move over.

“Hiding inside the statue, you’re quite brave aren't you Is there something you want to convey Tell me properly, don't disturb the master.” I raised my hand and pinched a seal, pinching the exorcism talisman to dissipate it. Then, with the Three Mountains Seal, I tapped the base of the statue.

The statue itself is fine, the problem lies with the base.

I have personally seen what "old copper" is like. Old copper refers to antique copperware with a surface covered in patina, turning a pale green color. Beneath the pale green lies a dark, almost black layer.

This base is made of copper, and the wooden sculpture is inlaid into it. Judging by the color, it's at least a hundred years old.

Teacher Zhou looked at me in horror and asked, "Who are you talking to! Is there a ghost here!"

The Grey Wolf made a "shh" sound to her.

I gave the Wolf a wink, and he stopped Mr. Zhou, asking him to go to the kitchen and make some tea.

Teacher Zhou patted her head and said, “Right right, you see I got too excited and didn't even offer you a glass of water…”

She rushed to the kitchen, and the glutton was guarding the doorway.

I looked at the bronze base before me, a withered “hand” reaching out from within—

This scene was very strange, like a cat had squeezed out of a mouse hole and gotten its body stuck at the opening.

That arm was withered and thin, immediately followed by a smooth, shriveled head.

It looked like a pile of broken limbs scattered across the TV stand.

The person's face was pale and gaunt, with sunken cheeks, resembling a corpse.

"...Hiding under the base of the statue, what do you think you're doing" I asked, frowning.

This thing doesn't speak, it just stares at me, then pulls out a terrifying smile: "...You look more delicious..."

Aha

I smiled and asked, "Do you want to eat me"

"...I... have been hungry for many years... I finally caught a child's ghost around here... but it's not enough... not enough..."

Well... With your slender frame, you wouldn't even fill the mouth of a malevolent spirit when you enter that realm. It wouldn't even be enough to wedge between his teeth.

"Do you want to kill this family" I asked.

He retracted his neck, looking a little timid: "I was just looking for food... This family's house has a lot of food..."

"What's your favorite food" I prompted him to continue.

"...I love eating both souls and spirits."

"Shall I take you out for a good meal Don't frighten the master here, or you won't end well either if you harm anyone."

This ghost gave me a strange look: "What kind of stupid mage are you I used to eat people in life, and after death, I reside here, able to consume souls and still cultivate… What good ending How many ghosts have been taken to the underworld, what good endings do they have Only I am free…"

I stuck a talisman for warding off evil spirits onto his forehead. He was stunned for a moment, then laughed maniacally: "Is that all you've got — Ouch! It hurts! It really hurts!"

Just me

This deadbeat is underestimating me.

“Spare me, Master! Spare me, Master!” The incantation burned on his head, his form shattered by the impact. Suddenly, he roared and flew out from the base, taking the statue with him. "Bang!" it crashed into the television.

"What's going on! What happened!"

"Shut up, don't make a fuss!" The Wolf turned and yelled at her.

Now, now, that's your teacher! Don't you want to keep your head down, little rascal

A heart-wrenching howl echoed through the room, burning talismans swirling everywhere, nearly fainting Master Zhou.

She clung tightly to the Greed Wolf's arm, hiding behind him.

I helplessly shook my head, pinching the seal to summon the little ghost messenger. The adorable little ghost messenger immediately appeared and hid behind me, clutching his head and saying, "Greetings, Your Highness!"

I find your current pose quite unique.

The silly little ghost couldn't dodge, and got knocked off his hat by the restless spirit crashing around inside the house.

A-Meng poked her head out from behind me with a hint of smugness: "See, I told you. Little Princess only summons us in emergencies, so the first thing we do is hide!"

“You’re quite clever, aren’t you Hiding behind me You think you can help me capture this ghost Get to work! Or I’ll have the Emperor punish you!” I glared at him.

The little imp giggled and said, "Our kind mistress wouldn't bully us. Everyone knows that!"

The master's… Looks like I have to learn how to be evil, otherwise, even the lowest-ranking demons won't fear me!

He rattled his chain like he had a wild boar on it!

"Ouch... This guy's got some real skill!" He was tripped by the hungry ghost and landed on the ground with a thud.

The little ghostbuster frantically slapped the hungry ghost with a summoning talisman. His movements resembled pounding a mole...

I propped my chin up and said, "You two got promoted, but your skills are still so mediocre If I had known this, I would have directly imprisoned you both and eliminated the evil. I wouldn't have given you a chance to make meritorious service."

"No! Little Empress! Let's catch him! This one we can catch!" The adorable little ghost catcher picked up his hat and put it on, scrambling to help Ah Da bind the soul.

I reached out to take the statue, and found that it was hollow inside, with a wooden panel. I opened it and shook it, and a pile of tattered silk strips, almost reduced to dust, fell out.

The worst part is that there were also a few blackened teeth inside these strips.

"These are yours" I asked the ghost.

He nodded with effort: “When I was alive, I was a wealthy tycoon. Once, after drinking too much, I got into a contest of wealth with someone and killed a female slave to eat her flesh. I became addicted to it…Later, I was caught by the authorities, starved for a long time, and then executed…My wife hid my lost teeth in a statue and asked a master to summon my soul, so I was able to remain.”

Wow, he used to be a big shot, now he's caught and can only be a grindstone for the ruler.

"Take him to the City God's temple for judgment, and the credit will go to you," I said to the little ghost messenger.

The little imp laughed radiantly: "Thank you, Little Lady! Next time we encounter a ghost with some skill but not particularly ferocious, remember to take care of us! The little ones are incredibly grateful!"

I scorned him, the fellow. From the first time he was summoned until now, he's been nothing but a joke.

Tai Lang shook off Master Zhou's hand and ran to my side, whispering, "Little Uncle, let me take it. You should stay away from such heavy, dirty things with negative energy…"

This little guy, he's got a bit of manliness to him. No wonder so many young girls like him.

"Teacher Zhou, are there any children who have had accidents around here" I turned my head and asked.

Mr. Zhou was stunned for a moment, patted his head and said, "Yes, yes, yes! A few days ago, in our neighborhood's pond, the water was very shallow! Maybe just ankle-deep! A little boy drowned like that... Neighbors whispered that his parents had done too much evil and retribution fell on their child, alas... The child drowned face down… It was terrifying…"

That child's soul is probably completely devoured by this hungry ghost... Teacher Zhou saw a child's little foot while she was doing laundry. It was probably the hungry ghost deliberately showing itself to scare her.

"What does this statue do for us I'll clear the oppressive energy from your house." be carrying an empty sack.This feeling was a bit terrifying, having a living "person" stuck to my back.I'm not familiar with the roads here and wouldn't dare to venture through the dense forest blind...
