Chapter 144 Jiulipo Hometown
In fact, Liu Xiaoting was dubious about the so-called **** at first.
It’s just that her obsession with Zhou Jiayi was too deep. Although she was not sure whether there were real gods, she still went to pray, and then everything happened.
Shen Yueran couldn’t help but sneer after hearing the whole story:
“Where are the gods in the world?”
“This so-called **** god, in my opinion, is just a villain hiding in the dark who specializes in doing bad things.”
“If this is your way of fulfilling your wishes, then I think other people in your village must have done a lot of evil, right?”
Liu Xiaoting was ridiculed and could only remain silent.
After hearing these words, Pei Anzhu sighed. There are gods in this world, otherwise she wouldn't have worked so hard to cultivate and ascend.
It’s just that gods don’t care about these trivial matters, and everyone’s fate is determined. If gods really interfere randomly, they will be burdened with cause and effect, which will harm the Taoist heart.
But what Shen Yueran said later was right. There must be something wrong with the gods in Liu Xiaoting's village.
Pei Anzhu thought of this and said to Liu Xiaoting:
“Your body should be in your hometown, right?”
"Yes." Liu Xiaoting nodded, "I am the only one left at home. No one will find me in there."
When the living soul leaves the body, the physical body looks as if it is dead, with no breathing or heartbeat.
If there is someone in the family, and if she cannot be saved, she will be treated as a sudden death, and a funeral will be held for her, or she will be directly cremated. If it comes to that, she will really not be able to go back.
Fortunately, there was no one at home, and no one would find her hiding there. Moreover, there was a time limit for the soul to leave the body. She would go back every once in a while to ensure that there was no problem with her physical body.
Pei Anzhu nodded and said:
“This time, I will personally send you back, and then break the soul-regenerating and body-removing technique in your body.”
It cuts off Liu Xiaoting's way of turning into a ghost and allows her to live in this world as a human being.
As long as she is a human being, Zhou Jiayi has a way to prevent her from doing something excessive.
Liu Xiaoting knew that as long as she could return to her body and survive, that would be the best outcome.
"Stay one night first, and we'll set off early tomorrow morning." Pei Anzhu said, and asked for the address of Liu Xiaoting's hometown, and then put her into the talisman.
Then she turned to Shen Yueran and said:
“Liu Xiaoting’s hometown village doesn’t look like a good place, so don’t come with me. I’ll take you to the airport early tomorrow morning and you can go back to Yuncheng.”
When Shen Yueran heard this, he immediately looked at her with a pitiful expression, gently pulled her sleeves and said coquettishly:
“Sister Pei, I want to go with you! Just let me follow you. I promise to be obedient and not cause trouble. I just want to see it with my own eyes, okay?”
"But if you stay with me, I have to ensure your safety." Pei Anzhu frowned.
It’s not that she is not confident in her own strength. She is sure that she can protect Shen Yueran. It’s just that it’s not as convenient as having someone by her side.
"I don't need your protection. I'll call Xiao Hong to accompany me, and then ask you to give me an amulet." Shen Yueran said the solution, "Please, Sister Pei, just promise me!"
Pei Anzhu couldn't stand her persuasion, so he had no choice but to agree.
Shen Yueran immediately called back and asked someone to bring the Fox Fairy Chi Yan over to her, and they would take them to the village together.
So the Shen family sent someone to send the fox over overnight.
The Shen family is absolutely assured of Pei Anzhu. Even if Shen Yueran wanted to take the risk, Shen Qinghe and the others would not stop him because they believed in Pei Anzhu.
Late at night.
The two of them finished washing and found their own rooms to sleep. Early in the morning, after having breakfast, they set off.
Liu Xiaoting’s hometown is in Songcheng, which is just a remote small county under the jurisdiction of Songcheng.
Pei Anzhu and the others took the little fox with them and it was difficult to take public transportation, so they found a place to rent a car, and the two of them, one fox and one ghost, set off towards their destination.
From prosperous places to remote places, from cities to counties, from towns to villages, from people coming and going to inaccessible places.
After five hours of driving, we arrived at Liu Xiaoting’s hometown, a place called Jiulipo.
The place names here are very random. Different villages are named by numbers according to their distance from the town. From One Mile Slope to Thirty-Three Mile Slope, they extend deep into the mountains, as if there is no end in sight.
The straight-line distance between Jiulipo and the town is close, but the road is not easy to walk. The mountain road has many twists and turns. At first, you can hear the voices of passers-by, but in the end, there are only the chirping of insects and the chirping of birds, and you don’t know where you are in the deep forest.
Finally arriving at the place, Pei Anzhu released Liu Xiaoting and asked her to show the way:
“I’ll go to your house first and let you return to your soul.”
“The independent house on the west side, on the far edge, is my family’s house.” Liu Xiaoting pointed.
Everyone walked towards the house.
The layout of the houses in Jiulipo is very messy and irregular. It seems that when people first built the house, they didn't plan it carefully. They just allocated the land they liked and used it directly.
In any case, there are abundant land resources in the mountains, and no one cares about using them as you like. You can build the house as you like, and build it as big as you want.
Therefore, there is no straight and horizontal road in the village. When entering from the outside, there are all kinds of paths, and almost every section can lead to the door of a certain house.
Liu Xiaoting’s home is no exception. Led by Liu Xiaoting, they avoided almost all the gates of every house and arrived at their destination without seeing any other villagers along the way.
No wonder Liu Xiaoting was able to hide here for so long. Although it is a village, the residents are sparse, and she deliberately avoided it, so almost no one knew that she was back.
Three people entered Liu Xiaoting's house.
The house is old and the environment is not very good, but it is clean and tidy. It seems that Liu Xiaoting has taken care of it.
At this time, her body was lying in the bedroom on the second floor.
Pei Anzhu went to check it out and found that her physical body was still full of vitality, and her soul was not sluggish because she had been away from her body for too long. She was immediately relieved.
She let Liu Xiaoting return to her body, and placed a restriction on her body so that she could no longer leave her soul. At the same time, it was also a kind of surveillance on her, so that she could not inform the so-called god.
Shen Yueran was a little reluctant when she saw Liu Xiaoting regaining consciousness:
“She caused so many troubles around Zhou Jiayi, and yet she escaped unscathed and could not be punished. It’s so unfair!”
Liu Xiaoting was delighted when she heard this.
She knew that nothing would happen. After returning to the body, who could prove that she pretended to be a system sabotage? The police couldn't convict her!
"Who said she won't be punished?" Pei Anzhu smiled reassuringly, "What she received was invisible punishment."
Liu Xiaoting's face turned pale: "You are talking nonsense!"
Pei Anzhu laughed at her naivety:
"You don't really think that you don't have to pay the price for living as a soul and leaving the body, do you? If it were so easy, everyone would run away from the soul, and then use the soul body to do bad things without being seen by others, wouldn't the world be like that? A mess?"
“It seems like there is nothing wrong with you now, but in fact there are two major hidden dangers.”
“First, after your soul leaves your body once, it is not as stable as before. If you are frightened or injured, it is easy for your soul to leave again, but at that time, you may not still retain your consciousness.”
“People have three souls and seven souls. If any soul is lost, it may not be recovered. Then the person will have problems. He may become dementia, he may become irritable, in short, he will not be normal or healthy.”
“Second, although you did not kill anyone, what you did ultimately had a bad impact on other people, and in this way you bear the sin of bad karma.”
“Your merits and virtues will also be reduced, your luck will become worse, your body will become weak, and your life will be miserable. Even if you should have smooth sailing for the rest of your life, you will become unlucky after that.”
“Of course, these are all under the premise that you are alive. If you die, the debt will have to be settled separately. You must pay off this debt of karma before you are eligible to be reincarnated.”
“In short, if you make one mistake, you will lose everything. From birth to death, it is not up to you.”
After hearing these words, Shen Yueran was finally happy. If you do something wrong, you have to pay the price. This has been a truth since ancient times.
Liu Xiaoting's face looked very ugly. She didn't want to be like Pei Anzhu said, but she had no choice.
No, maybe there is a way.
She can go to the gods for help. The gods are so powerful that they can help anyone realize their wishes. Maybe they can deal with this Qingzhu Immortal Lord?
As long as Qingzhu Immortal Lord is dead or disabled, she no longer has to be afraid, and maybe she can still be with Zhou Jiayi.
Thinking of this, Liu Xiaoting lowered her head and hid the look in her eyes, not wanting others to find out what she was thinking.
After a long time, she raised her head:
"There is no one living in the house all year round, and there is very little food. I brought some when I came back last time, but it was not enough for three people. You need to go out and find food by yourself."
“Where to find it?” Shen Yueran asked.
"On the mountain." Liu Xiaoting said, "There are wild vegetables on the mountain, you can also hunt, and there are also fruits. What you can find depends on your luck."
Pei Anzhu didn't need to eat, but Shen Yueran was an ordinary person, so after counting the food stored in Liu Xiaoting's home, they decided to go find food.
However, it was very tiring for them to travel all the way, so they did not go out for the time being. Instead, they made do with the ingredients in the house and made some simple food.
After the three of them shared their meal, they took another nap to recharge their batteries. It was around three o'clock in the afternoon before they went out under the leadership of Liu Xiaoting.
Liu Xiaoting led the way, but there were no accidents. The village was sparsely populated, and it seemed that no one liked to go out. They didn’t meet anyone else along the way.
After arriving at the mountain, Liu Xiaoting said:
“This forest is very big, and the distribution of food ingredients is also very scattered. If you want to find more things, it’s best to go separately.”
Shen Yueran was about to speak out to object, but was stopped by Pei Anzhu:
“Okay, let’s split up.”
“Then I’ll dig wild vegetables over there.” After Liu Xiaoting finished speaking, she turned around and left.
When she was far away, Shen Yueran spoke:
“Sister Pei, why do you let her act alone? What if she is not honest and goes to complain to that **** **** in the mountains? Aren’t we going to catch her by surprise?”
"What I want is for her to complain." Pei Anzhu smiled, "Follow her and you can find the location of the evil god, right?"
Pei Anzhu is here to slay demons, not to have fun in the countryside.
If this matter can be resolved today, she can take Shen Yueran to the town for a good meal in the evening.
Why do we need to dig wild vegetables here?
Shen Yueran understood what she meant, felt happy and said quickly:
“Then let’s catch up quickly, she’s already gone far away, and we’ll lose her soon!”
