Chapter 252: Mental Power +36
After a long time, Loach narrated almost his entire life story. He spoke until his mouth was dry and his tongue was parched. No sound came into his mind for a long time, and he suddenly felt indescribable excitement in his heart.

I guess the paper man didn’t take him seriously and just let him go as if it were a fart!
When he thought of this, Niu Qiu suppressed the excitement in his heart and slowly raised his head which was almost buried in his crotch. His eyes immediately saw the paper man. The excitement on his face immediately disappeared and was replaced by fear again.

Loach really wanted to ask what was going on with the paper man, whether to kill it or let it go, so just ask and stop threatening him.

But even if he had the courage to say this, he wouldn't have the guts to say it out loud.

It was because Fan Hongwei’s miserable death was constantly appearing in his mind.

He didn't know what the paper man would do to him, but even if he wanted to kill him, he would rather live for every second.

Just as Loach was feeling miserable and not knowing what to do, he took a furtive look and suddenly discovered a strange phenomenon appearing in front of the paper man.

In an instant.

A big door appeared in front of the paper man. As the door slowly opened, he had an urge in his heart to rush into the door.

just.

Before he could take any action, he saw some unknown words on the gate, but as soon as he took a look, he immediately understood.

I understand that what is written above is “Gates of Hell”!
Loach's face changed drastically. He hung out in the streets and heard a lot of gossip. How could he not know what the Gate of Hell was?

That's the gate to hell!
If he dared to go in, he would really die.

Loach resisted the urge to get up from the ground and run into the gates of hell. However, his willpower was weak and it was difficult for him to resist the temptation from the gates of hell. He was about to lower his head and dared not look at the gates of hell for even a second.

Then I saw Fan Hongwei getting up from the ground...

No, it was not Fan Hongwei who crawled up from the ground. His body was still lying on the ground. What crawled up from the ground was - it was Fan Hongwei's soul.

Seeing this scene, Loach's face turned pale, without a trace of blood, and he was trembling all over. If he hadn't been worried, he would have fainted.

It is very likely that you will die for no apparent reason at the hands of the paper man and lose your life.

Even if he dies, he must die clearly!

of course.

He still didn't want to die and hoped for a miracle to happen. If he fainted like this, he was afraid that even if a miracle could happen, it would not happen to him.

I could only resist the urge to faint!
"Could it be that the murderer who killed Master Fan is trying to save Master Fan's soul?"

A flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in Loach's mind.

The gate of hell next to the paper man could not have appeared for no reason. In all likelihood, it was summoned by the paper man.

He recalled an incident he had heard at a funeral of a wealthy family. He was doing odd jobs at the time and was eating and drinking for free. The food at that wealthy family, even the food for the servants, was richer than his.

and so.

If a wealthy family has any odd jobs, there will be many people willing to do them, even if there is no salary, just a meal is provided.

He is also included!
period.

When I was taking some free time, I happened to meet a wealthy family. I don’t know which Taoist temple they invited a master from to help them liberate the souls of the dead.

Compared to the wealthy families who were extremely respectful when the masters were performing rituals to liberate the souls of the dead, these people who came to do odd jobs were just doing things in passing and were not respectful at all.

At most, it is just superficial respect!
It's not their ancestors who are being saved, and if they weren't afraid of offending the wealthy families, they would have wanted to make sarcastic remarks.

They were so grand when they were alive and they were so grand when they died. Unlike them, they might live their whole lives and never die with the same grandness as others. I am full of jealousy in my heart.

among them.

There is an older person who said that some truly enlightened masters would call out the gate of hell - Ghost Gate - when they are saving the souls of the dead.

Of course, what’s even more powerful is that there will be ghost messengers from the underworld and ox-headed and horse-faced demons to lead the way.

just.

He thought this was just a rumor. Whether he lived in Hutougou or Qingyang County, he had attended countless funerals, and nine out of ten times, Taoist priests would be invited to pray for the souls of the dead.

Not to mention seeing the Ox-Head and Horse-Faced Demons leading the way, he had never even seen the gates of hell.

Not even once!

How could it not be a false rumor?

Until then, Loach took a sneak peek at the open door next to the paper man, and realized that it was not a rumor, but that the masters who were invited did not have real skills.

I can’t summon the gates of hell!

"This bastard is really generous. He did all kinds of bad things in his life and enjoyed a lot. Now that he is dead, there are even masters who can help him to be reborn and summon the gates of hell. If I could be as generous as him, even if I am dead..."

Loach opened his mouth subconsciously, and before he finished speaking, he wanted to slap himself.

He wondered if he was scared silly. He hadn't even lived enough, so why was he thinking about what would happen after death?

although.

Judging from the paper man’s current actions, after his death, the paper man will most likely also save his soul, summon him out of the ghost gate, and send him to hell.

But he would rather live a simple life than die with such a bang.

"no……"

Just as Loach was praying in his heart and the paper man had finished helping Fan Hongwei to reincarnate and let him go as if he had farted, Fan Hongwei's soul floated out from the corpse. It did not float towards the gates of hell, but instead pounced towards Wang Ping'an with a ferocious face and bared fangs and claws.

Obviously.

Fan Hongwei could not let go of Wang Pingan, the murderer who killed him, even until his death. Even if he became a ghost, he would seek revenge on Wang Pingan.

Loach really wanted to sneer, thinking that Fan Hongwei was not a match for Wang Ping'an when he was alive, so how could he be a match for Wang Ping'an after his death? He was very curious about what means Wang Ping'an would use to deal with Fan Hongwei's ghost.

Then a cloud of black mist emerged from Wang Ping'an's body!
The next moment, it transformed into a ferocious black tiger, and when it saw the ghost of Fan Hongwei flying towards it with bared fangs and claws, it suddenly opened its bloody mouth.

Under his and Fan Hongwei's panicked gaze, Hei Hu swallowed Fan Hongwei's ghost in one gulp.

"what!"

Seeing such a horrifying scene, the loach, which was already on the brink of collapse, could no longer hold on. It screamed and fell straight to the ground.

Life and death are unknown!

I don’t know if he was scared to death!

"Ding! You used the skill Soul Devourer to devour the soul of a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage. Congratulations, you received the reward: Spiritual Power +36!"

A cold, mechanical voice sounded in his mind, and Wang Ping'an's eyes suddenly lit up.

Skill: Soul Devourer. This skill was acquired when he killed an evil cultivator who wanted to revive by using his corpse to devour his soul and control his body, but he countered the evil cultivator.

By devouring the soul of that evil cultivator at that time, he gained a large amount of mental power as a reward.

After devouring all the soul fragments of the evil cultivator, he never used it again. This time, he unexpectedly gained thirty-six points of mental power all at once.

This was a good thing that he had never expected!
