Gu Immortal Returns

The witch quickly dodged, and the other villagers looked at Lan Xiang and ran away in fear.

The clan leader accidentally fell to the ground. Lanxiang did not attack the miko again. The miko dodged and ran towards the door.

Lan Xiang stepped on the fallen patriarch.

"oops--"

"The patriarch—"

The witch quickly walked towards the clan leader. The clan leader clutched his painful waist and kept moaning.

"Hurry up and chase her. Don't let her run away. Burn her after you catch her."

Several villagers who were very respectful to the clan leader immediately went after Lan Xiang who had escaped.

After Lan Xiang escaped, several villagers gathered around and helped the patriarch up.

"You people, you just care about running for your lives. You don't care about the life of the clan leader. Go after Lan Xiang."

The miko said
"Clan leader, don't be angry. This Lan Xiang is just a walking corpse now. Don't worry too much."

The witch said to the people around her: "Go to the doctor and carry the clan leader home."

"No, there is something going on in the village now, and I, the leader of the clan, have to stay in the village."

"Don't worry! I can handle the things here."

The clan leader was carried home by the villagers. The clan leader's injury was not serious. The doctor went to apply plaster and then let the clan leader stay in bed to recuperate for a few days.

The villagers soon heard about Lan Xiang's corpse fraud, and everyone was worried that the Gu Immortal was backlash.

The witch did not explain anything, and Lanxiang was quickly found by the villagers. The villagers tied Lanxiang back with a large net stained with the blood of a cinnabar rooster.

Lan Xiang's body was trapped in front of a collapsed house in the village.

The witch led people to the broken house and prepared to burn Lanxiang to death.

Chen Dong spent all the moon's gift money and returned to the village from outside.

When she returned home, she discovered that no one had lived in her home for a long time.

Chen Dong thought Tian Qing couldn't stand being with her and ran away.

He didn't clean up the house, but went directly to Aunt Wang's house, wanting to ask Yue Yue if she knew where her mother had gone.

Chen Dong walked in the village, which was empty at this time.

People went to the shabby house outside the village to see the corpse of Lan Xiang burned by the witch.

Chen Dong also felt strange. Early in the morning, no one in the village went anywhere.

Arriving at the door of Aunt Wang's house, no one has closed the broken door since it was knocked open by Lan Xiang.

"Moon, come out - where did your mother go? Why is there no one at home?"

Chen Dong shouted and walked into Aunt Wang's yard.

Chen Dong entered the house directly and saw no one. The things in the room that people usually use were all covered with dust.

In all the rooms, clothes, quilts and other things were gone.

Chen Dong felt strange and came to Granny Cai's house next door.

Granny Cai was taking care of her children at home. She heard shouting outside. She walked out of the door and saw Chen Dong standing at the door.

"Grandma Cai, where did Yue Yue and Jizong go? Why are all the things in Yue Yue's house gone?"

"Chen Dong, where have you been during this time? Don't you even know something big happened in your family?"

"I just came back. What happened to my family?"

Granny Cai told Chen Dong about the death of Aunt Wang's family. Chen Dong became anxious after hearing this.

He never thought that someone at home would die suddenly, so he ran outside.

Chen Dong ran directly to the witch's house. There was no one at the witch's house, so he ran to the patriarch's house.

The clan leader was recuperating at home. When he saw Chen Dong coming back, he said angrily: "You still have the nerve to come back?"

"Chief, tell me, are Yue Yue and my wife really dead?"

"It's not because of your drinking. You deserve this. Chen Dong, I will gather the villagers in the past few days and drive you out of the village. We don't have people like you in our village."

Chen Dong was so sad and at a loss. He originally wanted to come back and ask for money from the moon, but he didn't expect that when he came back, his family was gone.

Chen Dong walked out of the patriarch's house in despair. He suddenly thought of Matchmaker Xu. He felt that the reason why their family was like this was because of Matchmaker Xu.Chen Ping quickly ran to Matchmaker Xu's house. Matchmaker Xu was a widow, and there was usually no one else at home except Matchmaker Xu.

Matchmaker Xu also went to the shabby house outside the village with other people in the village to see the corpse of the witch burning orchid incense.

Chen Ping was sitting at the door of Matchmaker Xu's house, waiting.

The miko looked at Lanxiang who was tied up in the broken house.

Lan Xiang was not a liar, but her body was controlled by a poisonous insect. Perhaps it was Lan Xiang's obsession and resentment that made her return to the village.

The witch asked people to pile dry firewood outside the shabby house
The Gu insect on Lan Xiang's body seemed to be aware of the danger and was preparing to crawl out of the broken house.

"ignition!"

As the witch shouted, the villagers threw their torches at the firewood.

The dry firewood burned quickly, and a rotten smell came from the broken house.

Lan Xiang kept struggling in the fire, and the villagers looked around the broken house.

The witch's face was very ugly. The villagers wanted to come forward and ask about the Gu Immortal. Seeing the witch's appearance, no one dared to step forward rashly.

Watching the fire in front of me engulf the entire broken house.

"Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, Lan Xiang, this is your destiny. If you leave, don't come back."

The witch waited until the fire was completely burned out and she saw the orchid incense turned into ashes before she could leave with peace of mind.

After the fire burned, the villagers returned to the village one after another.

Matchmaker Xu was about to go home. As soon as she walked to the door, Chen Dong was sitting at the door.

When Chen Dong saw Matchmaker Xu coming back, he came over immediately
"Xu Matchmaker, you are finally back. Give me back the moon and my wife."

"Chen Ping, what are you talking about? I didn't kill Yue Yue and your wife. Your Yue Yue died of illness and Tian Qing committed suicide. What does it have to do with me?"

"It's because of you that we arranged this marriage for Yue Yue, so my Yue Yue died of illness at a young age."

Matchmaker Xu naturally ignored Chen Ping's nonsense, walked directly to the door, opened it and prepared to enter the yard.

Chen Dong stopped Matchmaker Xu, "Chen Dong, you drunkard, if you want to reason, go to the clan leader. As long as the clan leader says I am guilty, I will plead guilty. Don't pester me here."

Although Chen Dong was a man, he was very weak due to alcoholism. Matchmaker Xu easily pushed Chen Dong aside and closed the door. She ignored any attempts by Chen Dong to knock on the door.

Chen Dong could only go to the patriarch's house and sue Matchmaker Xu.

The patriarch naturally ignored Chen Dong and had people drive Chen Dong out of his home.

Chen Dong returned home, looked at the poverty-stricken home, and burst into tears in despair.

After the fire burned out, the witch went into the ashes and looked at Lanxiang's burned corpse.

The bones were collected and buried outside the village.

The witch was also worried, and when burying Lanxiang, she set up a formation at Lanxiang's grave.

The witch returned to the village and heard the villagers say that the villagers were now concentrated at the Gu Immortal Temple, and they were worried about the Gu Immortal's backlash.

After the events of the past few days, the miko was very tired, but she could not ignore this matter.

Arriving outside the Gu Immortal Temple, the villagers were chattering outside.

The patriarch became ill, and these people began to become unruly.

As soon as the miko arrived, they stopped talking.

The witch asked someone to open the door of the Gu Immortal Temple.

"Let me say it again, this matter has nothing to do with the Gu Immortal. The Gu Immortal is in the temple now, and everyone can go in and worship the Gu Immortal."

People entered the Gu Immortal Temple one after another.

I was awakened early by the noise outside.

Just when the witch lit the torch, I actually discovered Niandi's aura again.

Niandi appeared in my mind again. This time she asked me to save her. Now that her mother is dead, she has gotten her revenge, and now she just wants to leave here.

I didn't answer Niandi. I wanted to leave here more than Niandi. I couldn't even leave. Is there anything I could do to help Niandi leave?
