Chapter 182： The woman in red at the bottom of the well

The villagers didn't know that Pei Anzhu was awake and listening to them, so they seemed unscrupulous when talking outside -

“Mrs. Liu, she didn’t find any problem, right?” the village chief asked.

"No, don't you still believe in my methods?" The old woman who received Pei Anzhu last night, Mrs. Liu, said, "As soon as she came, I led her to the room and lit the corpse oil lamp with mixed incense. Make sure she falls asleep and dies comfortably in her dream."

After hearing this, the village chief was silent for a moment, nodded and said:

"That's fine. Although this is unkind, we can't do anything about it. Once we sacrifice one of her, our village will be free."

After saying that, he called a few strong men to go in and carry Pei Anzhu out.

Carry it all the way to a well on the east side of the village.

Beside the well, there were incense tables and altars, and some plates with some **** meat and some unknown wild fruits on them.

There is an incense burner at the front, full of incense, and I don’t know who is worshiping.

Pei Anzhu was being carried, and through his spiritual consciousness, he saw Mrs. Liu standing in front of the incense table, muttering something unknown, then lighting the incense and saying:

“That’s it, just throw it down and press the mouth of the well with stones. After seven days, everything will be over.”

After saying this, the people carrying Pei Anzhu were about to throw her into the well.

She quickly drew a water-proof charm for herself and let the villagers throw her into the well. With a bang, everyone lifted stones to press down on the well mouth, blocking the light above their heads.

Pei Anzhu fell into the water and opened her eyes. There was a water-proof charm. She was not wet at all in the water. She carried her bag and sank down until she reached the bottom of the well.

It was dark all around, but Pei Anzhu was not an ordinary person, she could see—

At first glance, the bottom of the well is full of corpses.

It seems that they were all thrown down from above, then the exit was blocked, suffocated to death in the water, and finally sunk to the bottom of the well.

Bodies were scattered everywhere, and there was almost no place to stay.

Looking further away, you can see dense yellow talismans on the stone wall at the bottom of the well. These yellow talismans should have been painted by Taoist priests with good cultivation. They can not get wet when exposed to water and will not rot all year round.

Yellow symbols are basically used for suppression, detention, and obstruction.

It seems like there should be something else remarkable at the bottom of the well.

Pei Anzhu pushed her palm, causing waves in the water to separate the bones on the ground, making a way for her, and she walked forward.

It was then discovered that there was not just a small area at the bottom of the well, but there was another stone chamber connected to the bottom of the well.

In the stone chamber, there was a suppression formation. In the middle of the formation lay a long-haired woman in red clothes. Her long hair covered her face, so her appearance could not be seen clearly.

The woman in red is still covered with talismans, and the outermost layer is tied with iron chains, as if to trap her here and never come out.

As a Taoist practitioner, Pei Anzhu could tell at a glance that these formations and talismans were all made by the orthodox Taoist sect, and they suppressed evil spirits that did not care about human life.

Even in order to prevent the evil spirits here from being accidentally released, bans have been placed on the talismans and formations. If ordinary people encounter them, they will suffer backlash and die.

Simply put, if your cultivation level is not strong enough, don’t even think about touching these.

"Come out." Pei Anzhu looked at the woman in red on the ground and spoke loudly.

She seemed to know that there were others in this stone room.

As expected, a figure walked out of the shadows, wearing a long red dress, with long hair, and a pale face. He walked up to Pei Anzhu step by step:

“You are not an ordinary person, you are a member of Xuanmen.”

“I am.” Pei Anzhu nodded.

Hearing this, the woman in red sneered and asked:

"What? The group of people above have come up with such a way to deal with me after twenty years? Find a little Xuanmen girl?"

"Don't get me wrong, I am not the same group as that group of people." Pei Anzhu said with a smile, "I was thrown down by them. They don't know that I am a member of Xuanmen."

Upon hearing this, the woman in red suddenly giggled:

“So you are a sacrifice! Hahaha, then they are really blind!”

Pei Anzhu was full of curiosity about the woman in red. Her body was lying on the ground, and her ghost appeared in front of him.

She could tell that the ghost of the woman in red was very powerful, but due to the formations and talismans here, she was always trapped in the small world at the bottom of the well and could not get out.

"It seems that you are very disdainful of those villagers. Are you interested in telling me your story?" Pei Anzhu asked.

“Why should I tell you?” the woman in red sneered disdainfully.

"Because I am the first person who has walked up to you alive and can even talk to you freely since you have been suppressed for so many years." Pei Anzhu looked calm, "You are unwilling, maybe I can help you?"

“Just you?”

"It's up to me." Pei Anzhu nodded, then waved his hand and unveiled a talisman on the corpse's forehead.

The light movements seemed like she was not uncovering a forbidden talisman that would kill anyone who touched it, but took a sip of water.

The woman in red’s face changed and her voice trembled:

“You can uncover those talismans, and you can let me out!”

"It's not impossible, it just depends on whether your story can impress me." Pei Anzhu said, "You should know that people in Xuanmen kill demons and protect the common people, and you are not of my race. If you don't have reasonable For this reason, not only will I not let you go, but I will kill you."

The woman in red, oh no, to be precise, the female ghost in red, looked at Pei Anzhu intently for a long time, a complicated expression flashed across her face. There is anger, excitement, and sadness, and eventually it turns into strong hatred:

"Okay, you have to listen, and I will tell you how despicable, shameless, bloodthirsty and cruel the people you protect are!"

Pei Anzhu found a random place to sit down beside the formation and listened to the story—

The village above was not originally called a living village.

The original name is unknown, but according to the story of the female ghost in red, before the Living Village, the village was called Liucun.

It’s not because every household in this village has the surname Liu, but because many years ago, the village believed in Liu Xian.

Liu Xian, also known as Snake Fairy, is a kind of family fairy just like the Shen family’s little fox.

It is said that the ancestors of this village accidentally rescued a white python when they were out hunting. The white python was three hundred years old and had already developed spiritual intelligence.

After being rescued, the white python repaid his kindness and became the family fairy, the Liuxian.

Later, the village encountered several natural disasters.

Either there is a drought and no rain, resulting in no grain harvest, or continuous heavy rains wash away the earth and rocks in the back mountains, causing mudslides to the village.

But because of Liu Xian's presence, the village was saved and the villagers' lives were safe.

The villagers were so shocked by Liu Xian's supernatural powers that they renamed the village Liu Village in order to better worship Liu Xian, and the villagers here also spontaneously changed their surname to Liu.

This kind of worship to family immortals is passed down from generation to generation.

In other words, this village is a village with its own beliefs and a strong belief in metaphysics. Under the constraints of Liu Xian, the villagers, no matter how ignorant they are, are wholeheartedly doing good.

But as time passed, Liu Xian’s lifespan came to an end.

No matter how powerful and capable it is, as a demon cultivator with enlightened spiritual intelligence, if it cannot find the opportunity to transform, there will be no hope of advancement and one day it will eventually perish.

Liu Xian picked a suitable moment to inform the villagers that his end was approaching, and then left the village. Before leaving, he also warned the villagers to continue to do good deeds.

The villagers had always followed Liu Xian's instructions, not daring to take a step beyond the realm of possibility, and could only live a peaceful life.

But one day, a Taoist priest came to the village, and everything changed.

Although this Taoist priest came from an orthodox Taoist sect, he was very greedy. He noticed that there had been Liu Xian's atmosphere in this village, so he lived here and wanted to find out where Liu Xian was.

The Liuxian who has opened up his spiritual wisdom is a great treasure.

If the Willow Fairy is alive and can be subdued, the Taoist priest will have an extra helper; even if the Willow Fairy is really dead, its skin and teeth can be used.

The Taoist priest said to the villagers at that time:

"The Willow Immortal is a gift from God. It lives in your village and with your worship and belief, it should have become an immortal."

“But the feng shui of your village is not good, and it has been consuming Liu Xian’s power to protect you. It was you who killed Liu Xian, not only unable to become an immortal, but also dying prematurely.”

"But Pindao has a way to bring Liu Xian back to life and continue to protect you. The premise is that you have to find Liu Xian's bones."

Under the deception of the Taoist priests, the villagers stopped doing farm work and planting crops. They carried hoes and shovels and went all over the mountains and fields in search of Liuxian's bones.

However, they did not find Liu Xian, but instead dug up something else:

A tomb.

It was a small tomb, not as large as the Imperial Tomb. There was only one coffin in it.

After the coffin was opened, there was a woman in ancient costume inside.

I don’t know how long that woman has been dead. Judging from the clothes she was wearing, she must have been dead for at least two hundred years. But for some reason, her face was still lifelike and her face was rosy.

He looked like he was asleep, not like a dead person at all.

The villagers were shocked. They looked at the gorgeous silk and satin on the female body and the jewelry on her head, and they felt greedy in their hearts.

If these jewelry pieces were sold, wouldn't the village become more developed?

With this thought in mind, the villagers carried the entire coffin back to the village and found an empty house to place it.

They took away all the belongings in the coffin, and some villagers even suspected that there were other treasures in the tomb, so they carried hoes to dig there every day.

Originally, the Taoist priest didn't know about this. He wanted to find Liu Xian's remains.

But suddenly he discovered that there was a black air hanging over the village. In today's terms, it was the shadow of death hanging over the sky.

The Taoist priest did some fortune-telling and discovered that the village had provoked a being that should not be offended and that a disaster was imminent. He asked the villagers what had happened:

"Has anything special happened recently? You need to tell the truth truthfully so that I can save you, otherwise you will just wait to see the King of Hell!"

Although the villagers were afraid, they could not resist the greed in their hearts and did not want others to share the treasure, so they kept it secret at first.

But if you hide it, something will happen.

People began to die in the village, and those who died were all people who had taken jewelry from the coffins. These people died miserably, as if their whole bodies had been sucked dry, and turned into mummies.

This frightened everyone, and they quickly found the Taoist priest, explained the cause and effect, and wanted to ask him for help.
