I become a god in another world

Chapter 467 Fateful Choice
Chapter 467

Meng Po was still standing in the main seat, as if she had lost awareness of everything around her.

She lowered her head and concentrated on cooking that special pot of soup, waiting for the 'person' she wanted to wait for to come.

Zhao Fusheng shouted again and again, and Kuai Manzhou finally turned around.

The child's eyes were half bloodshot and half black.

Human nature and devilish nature are struggling, despair and weak hope are mixed in the child's eyes.

"Fusheng——" the little girl blinked and murmured.

As soon as she finished shouting, her consciousness suddenly became much clearer and her staggering steps stopped immediately.

Kuai Manzhou is not very old, but being born in Kuailiang Village and growing up in such a complex and difficult environment has cultivated her precocious character that makes her very good at observing people's words and expressions.

"I'm suffering so much, Fusheng." After Kuai Manzhou said this, his eyes were already filled with tears.

The tears that should have been transparent appeared a light red color under the reflection of the blood-red pupils and the red candlelight.

Since the village incident, she has become cold and autistic after controlling the ghost. She rarely talks to anyone except Zhao Fusheng and no longer cries. The innocence and childishness of the child ended after the death of the people in Kuailiang Village.

This was the first time she cried in front of everyone.

Zhao Fusheng was immediately stunned.

She experienced the Kuailiangcun case, figured out the causes and consequences of the case, and understood what Kuai Manzhou had been enduring.

It was too cruel to ask a child to endure such painful torture, and this kind of suffering could not be relieved by her few words of comfort.

Human life is too fragile. Death is easy, but living is a process of mental torture.

The reason why Kuai Manzhou abused the power of evil spirits, did not restrain his own power every time he handled a ghost case, and was not afraid of the revival of evil spirits was that he was actually seeking self-destruction in the process of living - Zhao Fusheng saw all of this.

There is no doubt that she cares about Kuai Manzhou, but should she ignore the child's feelings and force her to stay by her side, or should she respect Kuai Manzhou's choice and let go with pain?
The two, one big and one small, looked at each other, and they could understand each other's confusion.

Zhao Fusheng's hesitation made Kuai Manzhou pause.

The inheritance of fate took effect at this moment.

After the incident in Kuailiang Village, she once resented herself and her mother in her heart - if she had not gone to pick white basil that day and had not wanted to see her mother off, would Mrs. Zhuang Si have boarded the boat that left the village and never returned?
If Madam Zhuang Si had not turned back, she would not have died. If she had not died, the evil ghost would not have revived, and Kuailiang Village would not have been extinct. Uncle Kuai Liu and the uncles, aunts and relatives who had taken care of her would all have lived well.

She felt regret and pain, and these emotions were like poisonous maggots that gnawed at Kuai Manzhou's heart.

The little girl thought more than once: If only there was a regret pill in this world, if she took it, she would definitely urge her mother to leave quickly and never look back, and everything would change in another direction...

……

But now it's her turn to make a choice.

Zhao Fusheng called her for the first time, trying to persuade her not to leave.

But when the two looked at each other, Zhao Fusheng understood her, and she understood the love behind Zhao Fusheng's hesitation.

Precisely because they understood each other too well, Kuai Manzhou began to hesitate.

Wan'an County is just getting started.

As a ghost rider, Kuai Manzhou knows only too well how terrifying evil spirits are.

Zhao Fusheng has to face a large number of ghost cases, and he doesn't know when it will end.

She is now on her way to the capital, and has encountered so many ghost disasters on the way. If I am not with her, who can save her if she is in danger in the future?
After drinking Meng Po soup, you will forget the past, all the pain and worries will be eliminated, and you can achieve eternal peace.

But at the same time, when the pain is erased, love and emotion will also disappear without a trace.

Kuai Manzhou was influenced by the ghost and his emotions gradually became cold.

But she would always remember that in Kuailiang Village, it was Zhao Fusheng who pulled her out of the cold well, held her in his arms, coldly stuffed the special "flower" made of ghost nails into her hands, and tried his best to help her resolve her worries.

These memories often came to her mind. When Kuai Manzhou was on the verge of losing control due to pain, they were like an anchor that kept her clear-headed and prevented her from losing consciousness and being completely affected and controlled by the evil spirit's resentment.

The good memories outweighed the pain, and Kuai Manzhou began to hesitate.

Love is always greater than hate, and Kuai Manzhou's mood at this moment is strangely combined with that of Madam Zhuang Si.

She vaguely felt the complicated thoughts in her mother's mind when she turned around, and in the moment she hesitated, her body made a choice before her consciousness - Kuai Manzhou began to turn around and walk back.

Just as Madam Zhuang Si chose to turn back, she knew that turning back was a road that would still be filled with pain and torture, but she still had concerns and could not walk with peace of mind.

"Fusheng, I don't want to forget you."

The child spoke softly, his eyes gradually becoming firm.

Meng Po soup's appeal to her decreased.

She retraced her steps and walked back into the circle of the ghost gate board.

Zhao Fusheng opened his arms and held her tightly in his arms. He was overwhelmed with emotions and didn't know what to say.

Zhao Fusheng couldn't bear to force Kuai Manzhou to stay because of love, and the child also turned back because of love.

……

'Gululu.'

Meng Po's soup was still cooking, and a strange smell spread, attracting all the ghosts to make a move.

The people from the Demon Suppression Division who were under the protection of the door gods were still relatively calm.

The living are afraid of death. Although Liu Yizhen, the Fan brothers and Chen Duozi swallowed their saliva frequently, they did not dare to take a step.

Meng Po looked down at the "boiler" seriously, concentrating on boiling the soup, waiting for the person she was waiting for, and paying no attention to anything around her.

The ghost minions of the Sun Mansion were lured by her and began to slowly move towards her direction.

But the ghost that had been hiding outside the cycle of reincarnation from beginning to end did not show up - its obsession was so strong that it even overwhelmed the temptation of Meng Po soup.

It is waiting for the person it never met in its lifetime.

'Woooo-'

The cold wind blew, bringing with it the smell of blood and death, along with a bone-chilling chill that made people shiver uncontrollably.

The red lanterns around slowly lit up.

Shen Yishu, who had left the house earlier, walked out of the ghost realm and stood at the door of the house.

The red mist submerged the feet of the evil ghost, forming a special sea of ​​blood mist, which carried it in it. It was attracted by Meng Po's soup.

People have obsessions, and when they die, evil spirits will be resurrected.

During her lifetime, Shen Yishu regretted not being able to see her mother and not being able to send the letter home to report her safety. After her death, she wandered around the world, asking ghosts to deliver letters, hoping to deliver the letter stained with her blood to her mother.

It also wanted to see its mother, to embrace her, and to eat the candies that her mother had prepared.

Meng Po's soup is extremely tempting to ghosts, and the "person" she most wants to drink this bowl of soup has finally arrived.

The ghost was slowly approaching, leaving behind a trail of bright red bloody footprints wherever it passed.

Shen Yishu stood in front of Meng Po. Meng Po's body trembled slightly, but she did not look up.

"She's here, why don't you show up? What are you waiting for?"

Meng Po talked to herself.

As soon as she finished speaking, blood began to shine on her body.

The blood moon shining above her head slowly rose into the sky, and the roof of the Sun Mansion began to decay silently under the moonlight.

Under the blood-red moonlight, the ghost disappeared slowly like a shadow with nowhere to hide.

The furniture lost its fresh color one by one and began to look stale and old.

A tall, strange ghost figure slowly appeared in the moonlight.

It was an extremely terrifying ghost. Its body seemed to have been torn apart by some terrifying force, and then sewn back together.

The head was torn apart and stitches were visible on the neck.

The evil ghost's face was swollen and blue, and it was no longer possible to recognize his original appearance before he was born.

The elegant and neat dark blue shroud robe seemed to be ill-fitting on its body.

The ghost's shoulders were twisted and deformed, but the shroud was too loose. As it walked forward with its two feet, one long and one short, the sleeves of the shroud trembled.

"..."

Meng Po looked up in horror and looked at the scene in disbelief.

The ghost stood beside Shen Yishu and looked to be a head shorter than Shen Yishu.

A thin blood-red thread emerged from its cuffs. The thread seemed like a living thing, climbing towards Shen Yishu's ghost corpse and tied to its fingertips.

The evil spirit has found its bride.

"Is this Sun, Sun Shaoyin?!"

Liu Yizhen cried out in disbelief as he watched the evil ghost reveal itself.

He couldn't connect the deformed corpse in front of him with the warm, gentle male voice he heard when he entered the mansion earlier.

If this is Sun Shaoyin, what exactly happened to him back then?
The appearance of an evil ghost after death silently accuses the pain it suffered in life.

Shen Yishu no longer remembers his former partner or the vows they made to each other. All he sees is the bowl of Meng Po soup.

After her initial shock, Meng Po hesitated for a moment, reached out to pick up the pot, looked at her daughter, and asked in a gentle voice:
"This pot of soup is ready, do you want some?"

The ghost took the soup and slowly drank it into his mouth.

Delicate red smoke escaped from its lips and wrapped around its head. As soon as the soup entered its stomach, Shen Yishu's ghost body turned from solid to virtual, and then from virtual to nothing.

A small piece of black object was left at the location where the evil ghost was, wrapped in a blood mist and floating in the air.

Meng Po reached out and grabbed the thing in her hand.

It was a black pill cut into the size of a date, and its taste had gradually faded due to its age.

But if you look closely, you can see the fold marks left by the candy wrapper. If you smell it close to your nose, you can also smell a faint bitter taste of medicinal herbs mixed with sweetness.

This is the medicinal candy left by Shen Yishu before his death.

In the fragments captured by time, she once said to Sun Shaoyin: Shaoyin, I still have a few pills of candy, do you want to take them?

……

Meng Po burst into tears:

"Shao Yin, she said she wanted to give you this medicinal candy, but I can't bear to give it to you. I'll eat this candy, and I'll make soup for you in the future."

After she finished speaking, she put the candy into her mouth.

Meng Po's emotions chewed and swallowed this special candy that carried the life of the evil spirit, and it turned into cold blood and flowed into her abdominal cavity.

The huge hole in the chest flashed red light and was immediately partially repaired.

As Meng Po swallowed Shen Yishu, who had turned into a medicinal candy, the red thread in the hand of the evil ghost whose body was broken into pieces and reassembled was immediately cut off.

The ghost has lost its target, and the law is about to be activated again.

Meng Po raised her head to look at it, the moonlight was pouring down, she stretched out her hand and scooped it up, and smoke began to rise from the boiler made of human bones again.

When she was about to give the pot of soup to the evil spirit in front of her, Zhao Fu came to life.

"Wait."

Zhao Fusheng turned his eyes, walked out of the ghost door, and strode towards the direction of the evil ghost.

Liu Yizhen and others didn't understand why she stopped Meng Po from sending the ghost away.

But the ghost disaster in the Sun Mansion can be said to have been temporarily suppressed. The ghost minions disappeared, and the law of reincarnation of the evil spirits was controlled by Meng Po as the ghosts appeared - this also means that the current crisis has been resolved.

Everyone followed Zhao Fusheng out from the protection of the door god.

Meng Po looked up in confusion.

She ate the ghost candy and watched the hole in her chest being repaired a lot, but she had less human aura and more ghost aura. When she looked at people, her eyes were less gentle and kind than before, and instead there was a chilling coldness hidden in them.

"Sir, why are you waiting?"

she asked.

As she spoke, her hands moved, as if she was trying hard not to pass the soup in her hand to Zhao Fusheng.

"The ghost disaster in the Sun Mansion has not been completely resolved. We cannot send Sun Shaoyin away completely at this time."

Zhao Fusheng explained.

As soon as she finished speaking, Meng Po finally couldn't control her instinct and pushed the "boiler" in her hand towards Zhao Fusheng:
"Sir, would you like some soup? It's freshly made soup—"

"..."

"..."

"..."

The Fan brothers, Liu Yizhen and Chen Duozi were all silent.

At this moment, Meng Po's ghost nature was greater than her human nature, and she actually started to sell soup to Zhao Fusheng - she was simply going crazy.

"Thank you, I'm not thirsty." Zhao Fusheng stretched out his hand to refuse.

But the moment her hand touched the soup pot, the reminder of the Conferred God List sounded in her sea of ​​consciousness:

This is a bowl of Mengpo soup that no one in the world can resist. After drinking it, one can forget the past, old memories, and erase all pain and joy.

We all have to go through this journey in life. Host, would you like to drink this bowl of special Meng Po soup?
As soon as the reminder of the List of Gods fell, Zhao Fusheng, who thought that his iron will had melted instantly under the influence of the evil spirit law.

An uncontrollable impulse surged into her mind, and she almost lost control as she reached out to take the "boiler", then picked it up without hesitation, intending to drink it all in one gulp!

Tips for the list of gods:
You will drink Meng Po soup!
Do you want to consume 3000 merit points to suppress the temptation of Meng Po soup?

Zhao Fusheng's lips touched the dead ghost's bones. After hearing the hint from the List of Gods, he made a choice without hesitation: Yes!

3000 merit points are deducted.

The temptation of Meng Po soup to her was immediately cut off.

Zhao Fusheng, still in shock, held the ghost head and pulled it away from her mouth. The two brothers Liu Yizhen and Fan Bisi beside her looked at her in horror.

Chen Duozi's lips were trembling, and he was so frightened that he couldn't even make a sound.

Kuai Manzhou's hands were tightly grasping her arms, and a look of panic appeared on his expressionless little face.

……

"Hey, I'm just teasing you guys."

Zhao Fusheng stiffened his face and forced a smile.

"...Don't make such jokes next time!"

Liu Yizhen was so anxious that he was sweating and his mouth was twitching:
"It's scary."

Zhao Fusheng handed the soup back to Meng Po:

"Keep this soup for yourself. I won't drink it, and neither will the people in the Demon Suppression Division. Don't give it away—"

After saying this, he remembered that Meng Po usually liked to make soup and feed it to Zhang Chuanshi, and warned her again:

"Don't give it to Lao Zhang either."
