Chapter 86: The Forbidden Land in the Deep Mountains, White Dragon Pool (3)
"What's going on with the mermaids in the White Dragon Pond?"
"There is a passage in the White Dragon Pond that leads directly to the sea. Often mermaids accidentally enter this place. Being trapped by dragon ghosts, the mermaids can no longer return to their hometown. They feel resentful and turn into corpse ghosts after their death. One of them has a high magic power and fights with dragon ghosts. As a result, they are covered in bruises and die of pus, causing a great plague."
"Why do dragon ghosts trap mermaids?"
"If you ask me why, why, why should I guess again." Fang Xiaomei was determined to see how smart Mu Changfeng was and deliberately asked another problem.
Mu Changfeng thought for a while, and suddenly remembered that when he was young, the family was roasting fire by the fire. His younger sister Mu Wanlian held "Folk Talk" in her hand, telling the story of the mermaid repaying her kindness with her childish voice.
There was a man whose family was very poor. He fell in love with a rich daughter. His father, who had no lover, despised the poor and loved the rich, and always disagreed with the marriage. The man sighed sadly and frowned for this.
At this moment, a mermaid who the man saved many years ago turned into an ordinary woman and went ashore. He found his home. When he learned that his benefactor and his lover could not finally get married, he immediately burst into tears and tears turned into huge and round pearls. The man used the pearls as a betrothal gift and finally got married to his beloved girl.
"The mermaid weeps and tears into pearls." No one has seen it with his own eyes, but only exists in various strange and strange things. Mu Changfeng originally thought that it was an ancient man who was so poor that he had a dream of spring and autumn, and he made up a story and passed it down.
Now it seems that this story is not groundless, and not seeing it does not mean it does not exist.
"I thought there were pearls everywhere at the bottom of the White Dragon Pond." Mu Changfeng was very confident, "The dragon ghost trapped the mermaids just to get the pearls."
Fang Xiaomei said, "Okay, it's true that there are two tricks."
Mu Changfeng said: "There are black mandalas everywhere around the pond, and the wisdom of dragon ghosts will be used well. By creating hallucinations, the mermaids will be even more painful. They cry non-stop every day, and there are more and more pearls."
Fang Xiaomei's expression changed slightly. No wonder Mu Changfeng was always so confident. This person has no ability to remember everything and does not have outstanding knowledge. But he seems to have a brilliant heart that can see the depths of other people's souls at a glance.
"Did I guess right again?" Mu Changfeng laughed, "I can always guess other people's vicious thoughts."
"Yes, yes, you are very smart, just like a worm in other people's stomachs. As far as I know, Lao Ma will also lose his hooves. When Xin Li appeared in Yiai Temple, you recognized her as having ulterior motives and nailed her bones with the mood of "performing the way for heaven". At that time, you thought your concept was very accurate, right?"
"It's not me who defended myself. Senior Sister Xin's behavior is indeed very strange. She plotted against me first and refused to reveal her true face and spoke in a false voice. How could I not doubt it?" Mu Changfeng's face looked like earth, and sealing Xin Li was always a hidden pain in his heart.
Fang Xiaomei looked cold and said angrily: "Xin Li plotted against you because she had no other way to let you arrive at Yiai Temple before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. Xin Li was wearing a mask because the God's Purposer once said that you would fall in love for her. Xin Li was worried that you would be moved and suffered a lifetime. And I tell you that she had a throat injury before she died, and she didn't use false voice to talk to you at that time. It was you who were randomly suspicious."
Mu Changfeng said: "Why didn't she tell me directly about her identity? Senior Sister Xin never said that she was Xin Li from beginning to end. She didn't say that the one sealed in the coffin was her corpse."
"You know now, have your ideas changed? Xin Li hopes that you can save her by the life-saving grace that year. I hope you don't realize that she has turned into a monster. Mu Changfeng, for twenty years, your parents thought she did not exist at all, and even told a big lie in the letter, denying the cemetery that year. You personally sealed her with five mysterious stone nails. Your family destroyed her only remaining friendship with Yulong Pavilion. No matter what you encounter in the future, it will be your retribution. If you owe the debt, you will have to repay it."
"I..." Mu Changfeng's lips trembled, "I have been prepared to be cut into pieces by Senior Sister Xin. I know that I can't repay the debt I owed her in my life."
Fang Xiaomei's cold face showed a soft look and said, "Forget it, everything is a foregone conclusion, why bother to care about who is right and who is wrong? Some disasters cannot be avoided."
Mu Changfeng lowered his head guiltily, remained silent for a long time, pulled out the Chixiao Sword, and said, "You are waiting patiently, I will destroy all the mandalas."
"As such a big piece, when do you want to be busy?" Fang Xiaomei's expressionless face, "It is the only way to remove the firewood from the cauldron. The black mandala is provided by the Yin Qi in the pond. After solving the dragon ghost and all the infant spirits, it will wither."
Mu Changfeng said "Oh" and said, "I guess Miss Fang has already had a complete plan."
Fang Xiaomei suddenly "shush" and said, "Someone is here."
Mu Changfeng listened carefully, but did not hear the footsteps. After waiting for about a fragrant tree, he finally heard the rustling sound. He couldn't help but admire Fang Xiaomei's excellent hearing.
Fang Xiaomei grabbed Mu Changfeng and hid in the flowers. After a rustling sound, a short, fat middle-aged man appeared, holding a heavy small package in his hand.
Mu Changfeng whispered: "Who is this person? Is it also here to offer sacrifices? Why didn't he bring a baby? What would he carry in his hand?"
Fang Xiaomei said: "This person is Wu De, the governor of Suzhou, and his official seal is in the package."
Mu Changfeng went with a surprised and puzzled look. Fang Xiaomei smiled softly, both charming and weird. "I wanted to remove Wang Er without knowing it, but suddenly I thought that this person was the prefect in Suzhou twenty years ago. If he continued to be the prefect in front of the prefect, he might as well arrange a good show."
"What a good show?"
"After I found Wu De, I immediately controlled his thoughts and told him that he would make a wrongful case in the near future, and that the wronged ghost would seek his life every night. I had to throw the official seal into the White Dragon Pond, which not only could comfort the spirit of the wronged ghost in heaven, but also impress the dragon ghost in the pool, and give him endless gold, silver and treasures to spend in life. Only by giving up sesame seeds can he get watermelon, and from then on, he will have a prosperous official career and become the prime minister. Hahaha... I also specifically told a date that he must arrive at Bailong Pond today."
"Why did you lead him to the White Dragon Pool? Is it Wu De..." Mu Changfeng guessed the truth and became angry.
