With the chilling breeze blowing, a deep and eerie atmosphere instantly enveloped the entire old house. Lin Xinhui felt Xiao Mei trembling nervously in her arms, and she hugged her daughter tightly, trying to comfort her.
The Taoist master walked steadily towards the sealed stone, his eyes deep and solemn, the talisman in his hand swaying gently in the wind. He began to recite some ancient incantation in a low voice, and the atmosphere became even more solemn.
Professor Wu stood aside, his gaze fixed on the seal stone, seemingly pondering a crucial question. Lin Tianming and his team members remained vigilant, observing their surroundings to ensure the safety of the scene.
Suddenly, the runes on the seal stone began to glow faintly, as if a mysterious and powerful force was emanating from the stone. The chanting of the Taoist master grew louder, and as he recited, the light gradually intensified.
Lin Xinhui felt a chilling presence permeating the air, causing her to tightly embrace Xiao Mei. Xiao Mei had a pale face, with a fearful expression in her eyes.
Chen Hanlin stood nervously on the side, his eyes revealing concern and curiosity. He knew they were possibly facing a supernatural phenomenon beyond ordinary understanding.
"This sealing stone may be the reason why Liu Chengzhi is protected from being found by He Jiao," Professor Wu said in a low voice to Lin Tianming. "We may need to find a way to break this seal. Once the seal is broken, it may be able to calm the grudge of He Jiao's spirit."
Lin Tianming nodded, his expression serious, realizing the seriousness of the situation. He turned to his team members, signaling them to stay alert and be prepared for any possible abnormal situations.
The priest's chanting grew louder, and the light on the sealing stone became more intense. Professor Wu focused on observing every change in the sealing stone, seemingly searching for the key to unlocking it.
Lin Xinhui felt the increasing pressure in the air and held Xiao Mei tightly, trying to keep herself and her daughter calm. Xiao Mei's eyes were filled with confusion and fear as she clung tightly to Lin Xinhui's clothes.
Chen Hanlin stood aside, his eyes fixed on the sealing stone, filled with curiosity and concern. He knew that what they were dealing with far exceeded the usual scope of understanding.
At that moment, a powerful energy burst forth from the sealing stone, causing the entire graveyard to tremble under its force.
Lin Tianming and his teammates, as well as the guards and servants from The Liu Family present at the scene, watched nervously as this might be the collision of energy between the Taoist and Professor Wu with the seal.
"Now is the time, hurry!" Professor Wu shouted loudly, signaling the Taoist master to speed up the chanting of the spell.
The priest's chanting became more urgent and powerful, while he continuously waved talismans in his hand, creating a radiant light that intertwined with the light on the sealing stone.
A sudden gust of wind blew, causing everyone's hair and clothes to dance wildly. Lin Xinhui held Xiao Mei tightly, feeling an invisible force swirling in the air, as if the whole world had come to a standstill in that moment.
As time passed, the light on the sealing stone suddenly burst out, revealing a fragmented scene. When everyone saw clearly, they found Liu Chengzhi and a Taoist priest whispering to each other.
Originally, Liu Chengzhi not only abandoned the mother and child He Jiao, but also used a powerful Taoist priest to sacrifice the two to Mosina Goblinoid for wealth. On the night when He Jiao was to be burned, the Taoist he found had already secretly set up the altar.
Taoist: "Young Master Liu, are you sure you want to do this? After all, this is your own flesh and blood. Although sacrificing to Mosina Goblinoid must be done by a member of The Liu Family, once the sacrifice is made, this infant will never have a chance at rebirth, and the area within a kilometer radius of the place of death will become a cursed land, difficult for people to live in, with deaths occurring every year. Furthermore, the mother will become a vengeful spirit seeking vengeance."
Liu Chengzhi: "I've made up my mind. Once I marry Zhang Qianjin in a little while, our whole family will move away from here. After that, with the great fortune bestowed by Mosina Goblinoid, with his life in exchange, my descendants of The Liu Family will be wealthy and prosperous for generations to come. We won't need to search for any feng shui treasures anymore. Besides, even if we find one, we have to worry about its effectiveness expiring, just like the "Zhu Chan Yin Quan Xue" is almost useless now."
The scene on the sealed stone, along with the light, suddenly dissipated, and everything returned to calm.
Professor Wu and the Taoist master exchanged a glance, their faces showing a hint of complex emotions.
"We have finally broken the seal on this stone and now understand the reasons behind what happened all those years ago," Professor Wu said in a low voice, but with a hint of uncertainty in his tone. "The seal has been released, but what will happen next, we cannot predict."
Lin Tianming and his teammates looked around vigilantly, ready to respond to any potential situations.
Lin Xinhui and Chen Hanlin stood quietly on the side, their eyes filled with unease.
In this solemn atmosphere, Xiao Mei suddenly shuddered, her eyes becoming vacant and distant. Sensing her daughter's change, Lin Xinhui quickly embraced her, but was horrified to find Xiao Mei's voice becoming cold and unfamiliar.
"Liu Chengzhi, you unfaithful person! How could I, He Jiao, forgive your actions!" Xiao Mei spoke with He Jiao's voice, her eyes filled with resentment and anger.
Everyone present was shocked by this sudden change. Professor Wu and the Taoist master quickly stepped forward, trying to calm He Jiao's spirit.
"He Jiao, please calm down. It's all over now," Professor Wu said softly, trying to soothe her restless spirit.
"Over? How can my hatred end like this? He sacrificed me and my child for his wealth and status!" He Jiao's voice came through Xiao Mei, filled with endless sorrow and anger.
The Taoist master began chanting soothing incantations to calm the restless spirit, while waving talismans in an attempt to appease He Jiao's angry ghost.
Lin Xinhui embraced Xiao Mei, tears welling in her eyes. "He Jiao, I understand your pain, but you cannot seek revenge by harming innocent children. Please spare my daughter."
Xiao Mei's body began to tremble violently, as if He Jiao's resentful spirit was struggling within her. Through the shouts of Lin Xinhui and the efforts of Professor Wu and the Taoist master, He Jiao's resentful spirit gradually calmed down.
Finally, He Jiao's voice faded away, Xiao Mei's body relaxed, and her eyes regained clarity. Lin Xinhui hugged her daughter tightly, looking gratefully at Professor Wu and the Taoist master.
"Thank you for saving my daughter," Lin Xinhui's voice choked with emotion.
As Lin Tianming watched this scene, he deeply felt a kind of power that far exceeded his understanding. His eyes revealed a new understanding of supernatural phenomena.
Professor Wu looked at the sky and murmured, "All this tragedy is due to human greed and selfishness. I hope He Jiao's soul can rest now."
The Taoist master quietly put away his talismans, a hint of sadness in his eyes. This experience is a profound lesson for everyone.
