Chapter 254 Chapter 254: Unable to Collect Souls

Zhenbeihou now has the blessing of the talisman array, and still has a little strength.

He took a breath, and said: "I have been hiding this matter, just because I am afraid that you will have such thoughts."

When Empress Xie learned that her elder brother had been hiding such an important matter for so many years, her heart was tightly locked together.

She asked: "Brother, the matter has come to this point, do you still want to hide it? What happened, and why did your soul suffer such damage?"

Zhenbei Hou finally sighed, he inspected the people in the house, and finally called Ye Siheng and Nan Li to come over.

His face was haggard, and his voice was even weaker: "The prince is in the court hall, all civil and military officials submit to him, and the princess is also highly skilled in Taoism and is very reliable. I really should tell you about this matter."

The night was quiet, and no one made a sound, so as not to disturb Zhenbeihou.

Zhenbei Hou continued: "More than 20 years ago, an evil spirit appeared in the palace. The evil spirit was so powerful that it killed many people in the palace overnight. Only when the strength is weak, can the talisman array be used to trap it."

Nan Li regained her spirits all of a sudden.

Although the national teacher is gone, there are still legends about him in the palace and in the capital.

After all, the feng shui array he set up in the imperial palace and imperial city is still impeccable until now, and Nan Li admires it.

It must be very powerful to make the national teacher spend a lot of effort to catch the evil spirits.

Xie Beihan had already asked: "Father, didn't you get hurt by that evil spirit?"

Zhenbeihou shook his head lightly, "No, that evil spirit is too powerful, the national teacher can't eliminate it at all, and finally can only decide to seal it up. But it is not easy to seal this evil spirit, it needs the national teacher and disciples to sacrifice To set up the magic circle, two people with horoscopes that generate and restrain each other are needed to suppress the formation."

Ye Siheng heard it, and said, "Master Hou, is that one of the people who are in charge?"

"That's right." Zhenbeihou nodded, "The late emperor called me into the palace, how could I refuse. This evil spirit is indeed ferocious, it tore me apart from another person's soul, and I wanted to break the forbidden formation, thanks to the Taoism of the national teacher Gao Shen, we succeeded in turning the tide. But the two of us who were in charge of the battle also hurt their souls, and the national teacher can only use talismans and elixir to repair one or two."

Nan Li couldn't help sighing: "The national teacher's talisman is really powerful. It can make you live for more than 20 years, and it can also hide your soul damage. I have seen Lord Hou so many times, but I didn't find it once."

Zhenbei Hou snorted: "That's right. It's a pity that the heavens are jealous of talents, and the national teacher passed away within a few years."

Hearing this, Empress Xie had some memories.

At that time, Marquis Zhenbei went to the palace, and when he came back, he was bedridden for half a year.

Her eyes were red again and again: "Brother, why didn't you say something about such a big deal?"

"The national teacher said that I can live for more than ten or twenty years. What's there to say?" Zhenbeihou smiled at his sister, but the smile was weak, "I am definitely good enough to live up to now. North John, don't blame me for forcing you to get married in a hurry, it's really... I can't wait any longer..."

Xie Beihan was too sad to speak.

No wonder my aunt was chosen as the princess.

No wonder the late emperor didn't punish him severely for all the misfortunes he caused when he was young.

This is what my father sacrificed his life for!

Zhenbei Hou knew that the end was approaching, and looked at Fan Yunqian again, "Qian'er, others say that Bei Han is simple-minded, but in fact, to put it bluntly, he is just stupid. You two are married today, you must understand and support each other."

Fan Yunqian met Zhenbeihou's cloudy gaze, and there seemed to be a huge wave in her heart, not knowing whether she should tell the truth.

However, Xie Beihan had already taken a quick step, firmly grasping Fan Yunqian's hand, and said, "Father, don't worry, we will have a good life, you don't have to worry."

When Zhenbeihou heard this, his expression relaxed a little.

He looked at Nanli again, and begged: "I don't ask the princess to save me, but I just hope that the princess can do me a little favor. Today is Beihan's wedding, if I..."

Nan Li understood the meaning, "Although I can't let the prince live for a few more days, it's still possible to keep the soul in the body and keep the body from decaying."

Zhenbei Hou can be regarded as using a bitter conscience.

If bad news came out of Zhenbeihou's mansion tonight, outsiders would only say that Fan Yunqian was hit with evil spirits and killed her father-in-law as soon as she entered the door.

But she was still wronged for Fan Yunqian.

Zhenbeihou knew that his time was short and wanted to see his son get married, so he hastily settled on this marriage and asked Fan Yunqian to marry him.

Others think that Fan Yunqian is high-ranking, but she thinks that Fan Yunqian has married into a den of tigers and wolves.

But now it is a foregone conclusion, I only hope that Xie Beihan will take responsibility in the future and treat Fan Yunqian with sincerity.

Zhenbeihou was relieved at this time.

The effect of the talisman array gradually weakened, and his aura became weaker and weaker.

With a flash of inspiration, Nan Li asked, "Master Hou, who was the one who fought with you back then?"

Probably this matter is too weird, and there is no record of this matter.

"It's King Rongyang." Zhenbeihou replied.

His eyelids could no longer stand up, and as soon as he finished speaking, his body tilted to the side.

Xie Beihan rushed to support him, already feeling that his father had lost his breath...

Nan Li had sharp eyes and quick hands, and a few copper coins flew out, and then quickly formed a seal, temporarily pressing Zhenbeihou's soul back into his body.

There was a gust of wind, blowing the candles in the house to flicker.

Ye Siheng rolled his eyes and said in a low voice, "Is it a ghost?"

Nanli looked over, and sure enough there was a ghost messenger appearing in a dark corner, and she was an old acquaintance, she had helped him collect ghosts.

"How can you see me?" The ghost guard looked surprised, and wanted to take a closer look at Ye Siheng's eyes, but when he was three or four steps away, he felt a burst of coercion, so that he didn't dare to get any closer.

He swallowed, wanting to finish his errand and leave quickly.

But when he got to the bed, he saw Zhenbei Hou pressing his soul with a copper coin on his face, and the ghost guard looked up at Nan Li: "My lord ancestor, this man's life span is over, and his soul is seriously damaged, so he must be taken back to the underworld immediately. Still forcibly keeping his soul? It will do him no good at all."

Nan Li said: "This is his own wish, so I will help him. After half a month, I will personally send him to the underworld. Please make it easier for me."

The ghost officer quickly refused: "If I can't take back my soul, I will be negligent, but I will be punished. My ancestor, please don't embarrass me."

Nan Li didn't step forward to stop her, she just hooked the corner of her mouth, "Then you can try."

Seeing that he was underestimated so much, the ghost messenger was also annoyed, "Try it!"

He took out the magic weapon for collecting souls, threw out a rope to bind ghosts, and attacked Zhenbeihou.

Xie Beihan was still sitting on the edge of the bed, he couldn't see anything, he only felt a gust of cold wind blowing, and he shivered abruptly.

The ghost rope can tie the soul out of the human body, but the rope is completely empty.

The ghost messenger was slightly startled, and took a look at Nanli, but he was still unwilling to control the ghost rope and put it on again.

But Zhenbeihou's soul was crushed to death by the copper coins and fingerprints, and the ghost rope would not work at all!
