Dreaming for 10,000 years

Chapter 184 A Family of Ghosts
After leaving Yucheng, Shi Fei headed towards Qiri Mountain.

Passing a small town halfway, Shi Fei heard a commotion coming from afar. He walked closer and saw a man in a yellow Taoist robe being chased out of the town by a group of people, looking very embarrassed.

"What's going on?" Shi Fei curiously stopped a passerby and asked.

The passerby looked as if he was used to it, and explained the matter in a few words: "Mr. Zheng's new house was haunted, so he invited a wizard to exorcise the ghost. However, the wizard's magic power was not enough to suppress the ghost, so he was driven out."

"The new house is haunted?" Shi Fei frowned and murmured in a low voice, "Why are there ghosts everywhere!"

Why is this world filled with either zombies, evil spirits, or evil gods?
The passerby laughed and said in a relaxed tone: "When a person dies, he becomes a ghost. Don't people have ghosts? What's so strange about this?"

"Well said!" Shi Fei nodded, and couldn't help but look at the passerby a few more times. At this glance, he found that this passerby was somewhat extraordinary.

Although he was wearing a coarse cloth, it was clean without a single stain. His face was ordinary and unremarkable at first glance, but his eyes occasionally flashed a gleam of brilliance.

"What's your name?" Shi Fei clasped his fists and said, "My name is Shi Fei."

He almost misjudged that the person in front of him was a master.

It can be said that the person in front of him is the most powerful person he has ever met in this world!

"Hmm?" The man also looked at Shi Fei carefully, with a hint of surprise in his eyes. Obviously, he also noticed that Shi Fei was extraordinary.

"Your last name is also Shi?" The man smiled slightly, with a hint of nostalgia in his tone, "I have a friend whose last name is also Shi. Unfortunately..."

He paused, and did not continue speaking. Instead, he clasped his fists and said, "My name is Hu Tianshao."

"My name is Hu Tianshao!" he said with a fist.

"Nice to meet you! Nice to meet you!" Shi Fei asked, "You are here to watch the fun, are you going to help get rid of the ghost?"

"Me?" Hu Tianshao pointed at himself, shook his head and laughed, "I'm not a magician, how can I get rid of any ghosts?"

He looked up at the sky and said in a leisurely tone: "The laws of nature are clear and there is a destiny. There are reasons for ghosts. When the golden wind and jade dew meet, it is better to get drunk in the world!"

After saying this, he turned and left calmly, heading towards Yucheng.

Shi Fei looked at his figure and said nothing.

This place is not far from Qiri Mountain. Could this person have come down from Qiri Mountain?
Seeing the commotion ahead, Shi Feiyang said, "I'll try to get rid of the ghost."

In the few days since he came to this world, he had only seen Mr. Lin hire someone to kill his driver, but he had seen many demons and monsters harming people.

Since he had encountered a ghost, he naturally wanted to find out the truth. If the ghost had any grievances, he would kill the ghost and redress its grievances. If it was unreasonable, he would kill it directly without mercy.

"Can you... do it?" A middle-aged fat man dressed in brocade clothes - Mr. Zheng, looked Shi Fei up and down, with a hint of hesitation in his tone.

It's no wonder. He had invited many wizards, but all of them came back empty-handed. The matter became a bigger sensation.

He worked so hard to build a house, but couldn't live in it because it was haunted. For him, this was more painful than killing himself.

"Why not give it a try?" Shi Fei glanced at him calmly and said.

Master Zheng's heart trembled when he saw Shi Fei's look. He felt that the young man in front of him was of extraordinary bearing. He hurriedly bowed his head and respectfully welcomed Shi Fei in.

Walking into the courtyard, you will see an exquisite two-story building. The exterior wall of the building is made of blue bricks, with slightly raised eaves, and a touch of ancient charm between the carved beams and painted buildings. The courtyard in front of the building is paved with neat bluestone slabs, and there are several green bamboos planted on both sides. The breeze blows, and the bamboo leaves rustle, which makes it look particularly quiet.

However, such a house that should be full of vitality is now shrouded in a gloomy atmosphere, as if even the sunlight cannot penetrate.

"It's right here!" Mr. Zheng pointed at the two-story building with its door wide open and said distressedly, "It's a pity that I worked so hard to build it, but it's already haunted before I even had a night to live in it!"

"I'll go take a look!" Shi Fei saw signs of fighting inside the small building and knew that it was caused by the Taoist who had just been driven away.

Shi Fei didn't say much. He glanced around the small building and noticed obvious signs of a fight inside, which were obviously left by the Taoist priest who had been driven away before.

He walked into the small building, and as soon as he stepped in, he felt a cold breath blowing towards him, as if even the air had solidified.

The temperature inside the building suddenly dropped, just like the haunted building I had seen before.

The interior decoration of the small building is quite exquisite, with neatly arranged mahogany furniture and several landscape paintings hanging on the wall, giving it an antique feel.

However, at this moment, these exquisite furnishings were covered with a gray hue, as if shrouded by something invisible.

A layer of light white mist rose quietly from nowhere, filling the entire room and covering the originally exquisite mahogany furniture with a hazy veil.

In the mist, a white figure slowly emerged and stood on the mahogany chair in the middle.

It was a female ghost, wearing a plain white dress, with long hair that fell to her chest. Her face was pretty, but as pale as paper, and her eyes were fierce, as if they could pierce through people's hearts.

The female ghost stared at Shi Fei coldly, her voice as chilling as ice: "You are no match for me, so leave as soon as possible! Otherwise you will lose your life in vain!"

Her tone was fierce, but she did not take any action, and it was obvious that she was threatening.

Shi Fei looked at the female ghost and said, "Since you don't want to do anything, why don't you tell me about your grievances. If you have any unfulfilled wishes, I can help you!"

"Although I have enemies, that was hundreds of years ago!" The ghost girl said with a cold smile: "My enemies have all turned to ashes! I have no grievances!"

"...Since you have no grievances, why are you entangled with this family?" Shi Fei asked puzzled.

"Because this is my home!" said the female ghost as a matter of course.

"Yes! This is our home too!" Along with this voice, several figures appeared around the female ghost.

They were old and young, male and female, obviously a big family. They all looked pale and stared at Shi Fei with gloomy eyes.

Shi Fei understood now that Master Zheng had built his house on top of someone else's family. No wonder the ghosts were entangled with Master Deng. No wonder ordinary Taoists and wizards couldn't understand how one person could beat a group of people.
When a family of evil ghosts fight together, two fists are no match for four hands, and an ordinary Taoist priest really cannot defeat them.

However, when the house was being built, these ghosts did not come to cause trouble. After the house was built, the ghosts came out to scare people.

Obviously, this family is planning to buy this house for free.

"You said this land is your home, and the Zheng family built it over your house. Do you have any evidence?" Shi Fei looked at the family of evil ghosts and decided to reason with them since they did not hurt anyone.

"Don't our bones count?" said the female ghost with a cold smile.

Shi Fei shook his head and said, "Of course not! Because there are more than just your bones underground!"
