Chapter 39 - 39: Min River Region, Lu Shan Sect’s Blessed Land



“Uncle, auntie.”

Xu Yang got up and quickly greeted them, surprised to ask, “A haunted construction site? What’s going on?”

He and Ma Long had a great relationship, often hanging out at Ma Long’s house during high school, and naturally got to know Ma Long’s parents.

Ma Long’s parents also knew Xu Yang.

They had known for a long time that Xu Yang had a funeral shop, and even during the Qingming Festival, they would specifically come to the shop to buy things and support the business, but they never knew Xu Yang had “real abilities”.

After hearing a detailed account of last night’s events at the construction site from Ma Long, they came over this morning.

Ma Long’s father explained the situation at the construction site with a bitter smile.

As it turned out, a week ago, rumors of a “haunted” construction site began to spread.

It was said that one of the workers saw a red-clothed female ghost floating past the window while working overtime at night.

Since then, things had spiraled out of control.

Every night, someone would “encounter ghosts.”

Even a master was stuffed into a latrine while going to the bathroom at night.

Ghost-hitting walls and mouthfuls of dirt had happened several times, and although no injuries were caused, the workers were very scared.

“Xu Yang, Uncle heard from Ma Long that you are a descendant of the Daoist Heavenly Master with extraordinary abilities in catching ghosts and exorcising demons… so I want to ask you for help in performing a ritual at my construction site.”

Ma Long’s father is named Ma Zhongguo.

These few days, he had been worrying to the point his hair turned white, bitterly saying, “The construction industry hasn’t been easy these recent years, and our family’s company has been losing money. We finally got this big project and were ready to make money… but then this happened!”

“If we can’t solve it and the workers are too scared to work, causing delays in the project progress, we won’t get any subsequent payments and will have to pay a large amount of compensation… By then, I’ll truly be bankrupt!”

These days, Ma Zhongguo had been so worried that he couldn’t eat.

“A red-clothed female ghost?”

Xu Yang thought for a moment and said, “Uncle Ma, don’t worry. How about this… tonight, 1’11 go take a look at your construction site and deal with that ghost, all right?”

Ma Zhongguo was overjoyed and immediately pulled out five bundles of hundred yuan bills from his bag.

“Thank you, Xu Yang!”

“This little money is not much, but it’s a token of my respect for the Daoist rituals.”

Of course, Xu Yang couldn’t accept Ma Long’s father’s money.

But he also couldn’t refuse it.

There are rules for each business, especially for catching ghosts and dispelling evil, which has many taboos.

Symbolically accepting 200 dollars, Xu Yang said, “I need to prepare for a bit, but after it gets dark, 1’11 be at the construction site as planned.”

Ma Zhongguo said a few words of gratitude.

Xu Yang laughed, “Uncle, what’s my relationship with Ma Long? We’re family, so there’s no need for formalities… By the way, have you had lunch? There’s a newly opened restaurant on the next street. The food is pretty good, let me treat you to a meal.”

These years, Ma Long’s family had taken good care of Xu Yang.

Xu Yang was well aware of this.

After treating Ma Long’s family to a homemade meal, Xu Yang packed up some leftovers for the lady at home and returned to the shop at noon.

He went to the second floor, put the leftovers on the table, and laughed, “Lady Ghost, time for lunch!”

The female ghost floated out in a flash, sniffed each dish with satisfaction, and said, “Not bad, the food from this restaurant is good… From now on, let’s order takeout from this place for all three meals a day.”

“This food is expensive, ordering takeout occasionally is fine, but 1 can’t afford it for three meals every day!”

Xu Yang muttered under his breath.

The female ghost glanced at Xu Yang and said calmly, “Money is just an external thing. We don’t bring it into life nor take it with us in death, so why care so much about it… Here’s what we’ll do: you prepare a big car, and in three days, I will take you to dig up my burial items, guaranteeing that you’ll get rich overnight.”

Xu Yang was overjoyed and quickly agreed.

He then asked, “By the way, Lady Ghost, you’ve been at home all day today… How about going out with me tonight?”

How could the female ghost not know Xu Yang’s thoughts?

Although she didn’t go downstairs, she knew exactly what had happened. She asked, “You want me to help you deal with the red-clothed female ghost, right?”

“Yes.”

“Red-clothed fierce ghosts aren’t easy to deal with!”

“I have many treasures, but my own cultivation is too weak, and there are too many people on the construction site. I’m worried that accidents will happen and harm innocent people.”

Xu Yang nodded, expressing his concern.

However, the female ghost said, “Who told you that wearing red clothes necessarily means it’s a red-clothed fierce ghost?”

She flicked her finger, and a blood-red light flew from her fingertip and landed on Xu Yang.

She began speaking, “This is my life essence, which can protect you from harm… 1 still have dramas to catch up on tonight, so I don’t want to run around.”

Xu Yang:”…”

Don’t want to run around?

What about when you followed me day and night, even when I went to the bathroom?

However.

What the female ghost said seemed to make sense.

Does wearing red clothes necessarily mean it’s a “red-clothed fierce ghost”?

Red clothes can represent the level of ghosts, but they can also simply refer to the color of clothing… For example, the one at home wears red every day and has never been seen changing clothes.

Changing clothes?

Suddenly, an idea came to Xu Yang’s mind, and he tentatively asked, “Lady Ghost, do you want new clothes? If you want new clothes, just say so, and I’ll personally make you a few sets and burn them for you.”

Meanwhile.

In the southeastern coastal area of Da Xia, Min River.

The Min River is the largest river in Min Province, and there are many beautiful myths about it.

It is said that at the bottom of the Min River lies the mysterious Lu Shan, which ordinary people cannot see with the naked eye, and only those who have achieved a certain level of cultivation can see it.

This is where the Lu Shan Sect originated.

The Lu Shan Sect was formed during the Tang and Song dynasties, and is one of the lineages of the Miraculous Salvation True Lord Miaoji passed down by Celestial Master Xu. It worships the gods of Qi Lang of Meng Mountain, Zhao Hou, Zhang and Zhao, and other divine mages, making it one of the most important sects in the southern part of Da Xia.

There are two branches within the Lu Shan Sect.

One is the Aconite Sect that venerates the witchcraft of “Wu Fa”, and their Grandmaster worships the Divine Master whose role is mainly to handle funerals and exorcise demons.

The other is the “Red Head Sect”, also known as the “Three Goddesses Sect”, which worships the three female goddesses from the Lin, Li, and Chen families. Their main practice is the Daoist Jingming Sect’s teachings.

Master Chen is an elder of the “Red Head Sect” branch of the Lu Shan Sect, a blood descendant of the three ladies’ lineage of “Holy Mother Who Facilitates Natural Birth Chen Jinggu.”

After returning from Lingzhou City,

Master Chen hurried to Min River and entered the legendary “Lu Shan.”

Although called “Lu Shan”, it is actually an island covered in clouds and mist, with many Daoist palaces like a paradise on earth… In fact, it is a “heavenly paradise” for humans.

In ancient times, Lu Shan was known as a “cave of supernatural blessings.”
