Chapter 207 Reincarnation
Chapter 207 Reincarnation
The smell of death in the air became stronger and stronger, and the red light flashing in the murderous aura was like the fire of hell, dazzling and terrifying.
Gu Weiyi raised his head with difficulty, staring at the thick dark clouds above his head, feeling his vitality slipping away bit by bit like the sand in an hourglass.
He tried to press his chest, but found that even this simple action was extremely difficult. An unprecedented feeling of powerlessness surged in his heart - this journey might really be doomed.
At this moment, the evil spirit above his head was growing thicker and thicker, carrying with it a terrifying force that was enough to shake the world, and it seemed that it would devour him in the next moment.
Thousands of words surged in Gu Weiyi's heart, but they could only turn into silent shouts. It was as if his throat was strangled by an invisible hand and he couldn't utter a word.
There was a bitter smile on the corner of his mouth, which was a self-mockery of the fate and a sadness for the life that was about to end.
Just as Gu Weiyi was about to accept the verdict of death, an ethereal and distant female voice suddenly sounded: "Although I don't want to save this foolish man, if you take his life, your hands will be stained with innocent blood. Then, you will lose the chance of reincarnation and rebirth, and my help will be far away from you."
These words seemed to possess magical power, instantly solidifying the raging evil spirit, and the entire space seemed to be still at this moment.
However, there was only a moment of silence before the destructive force began to stir again, carrying an even greater ferocity than before and rushing towards Gu Weiyi again.
"What I said was indeed inappropriate, but it was not life-threatening."
Sheng Junwei sighed softly. Her appearance was silent, like a light breeze that did not stir up any dust.
Before everyone's eyes were focused, she had already stood gracefully beside Gu Weiyi. She waved her slender white hands gently, easily dispelling the terrifying evil spirit, as if all the evil thoughts in the world seemed pale and powerless in front of her.
Gu Weiyi escaped death, his astonishment was beyond words, his eyes were wide open, he could hardly believe that he was still alive.
In front of me, the woman easily controlled the terrifying evil spirit with just two fingers. The scene was simply unbelievable.
Sheng Junwei gently twisted her wrist, and the evil spirit seemed to be guided by something and slowly retreated to the surface of the river, turning back into the image of the peasant girl with a damaged head, with indescribable sadness in her eyes.
"Why... do you want to stop me..."
Its voice was cold and broken, revealing deep confusion and resentment.
"I thought you were different from those cold-blooded people in the world..."
The ghost girl's voice was low and full of disappointment.
"I am not here to be your enemy, but I hope to lead you out of hatred, so I have to stop you."
Sheng Junwei spoke calmly, but every word was firm: "Those people's deaths back then were certainly their own fault, and your indifference and indifference was also a kind of cause and effect. But if you take his life now, you will bear new sins, and your path to reincarnation will be cut off."
"Reincarnation..."
The female ghost suddenly sneered, and the laugh was more mournful than crying, piercing the heart.
"What's the benefit of reincarnation? What's the benefit of being a human being?"
There was doubt and desperation in her voice.
The smile froze instantly, and as her mood fluctuated violently, the evil spirit around her surged and trembled, as if expressing her unwillingness and resentment: "If I really had a choice, I would rather never set foot in this dirty world!"
Sheng Junwei sighed for the third time, her voice full of compassion and understanding: "Your name is Jiang Zhaodi, and you are the daughter of the land of Nanping Village."
"As the eldest daughter in the family, due to the prejudice of the old times and the concept of favoring boys over girls, after you were born, two daughters were born in succession, until finally a boy was born."
"In the years when there were no male heirs, you endured endless blame from your parents and were considered a burden to the family. You didn't have enough food or warm clothes. All the misfortunes were attributed to your existence. It was believed that it was because of you that male heirs were unwilling to enter the family."
"You thought that the birth of your brother meant that your parents' wish had come true and that you would no longer be blamed or criticized."
"Unexpectedly, your brother's arrival pushed you from a nightmare into a deeper abyss."
"Although we were poor in the past, we could at least make ends meet. But since your brother was born, all the family resources and love have been poured into this youngest child. And you, the girl who was regarded as a 'money-loser', have been deprived of even the most basic survival needs. Your life has fallen into an unprecedented predicament."
"You are forced to do more labor, and the food you eat is pitifully small. You struggle with hunger and exhaustion every day."
The female ghost stood there quietly, seemingly immersed in distant memories, without saying a word.
Her existence was like a ghost in the middle of the night. If it weren't for the occasional, hard-to-conceal emotional fluctuations that emanated from the dark evil aura lingering around her, no one would think that this silent figure posed any threat.
The air around them seemed to freeze. Pei Yu and the others were deeply attracted by the story that suddenly unfolded. The atmosphere was tense and subtle.
Fan Ruoxuan's weak voice broke the silence. He asked with difficulty, "But even if you are unwilling, you should let go of your resentment after death and stop harming innocent lives."
At the moment this sentence came out, a loud bang was heard all around, as if something suddenly broke, and then all the sounds around disappeared without a trace, everything was silent, and the only sound in the world was the conversation between them and the female ghost.
Sheng Junwei's voice sounded again, with a barely perceptible sadness: "How can someone who has never tasted sweetness truly understand what pain is? At most, it's just numbness from getting used to life. But in the twelfth year of your life, in that corner forgotten by fate, you finally touched something called 'sweetness'."
"That day, a pair of wealthy siblings from a distant place secretly traveled here without telling their family. They were attracted by the beautiful scenery and simple folk customs of Nanping Village and decided to stay temporarily in this place far away from the hustle and bustle."
"The elder sister is only fifteen years old, in the prime of her life. Her family has already arranged a marriage for her, and she will be married when she returns home. The younger brother is only thirteen years old, but he has already shown innocence, justice, and wealth beyond his age."
"By the clear stream, my brother accidentally found you. Seeing that you were pale and thin, he felt pity for you and gave you some exquisite cakes."
"Although he was born in a wealthy family, he was well-educated at a young age. He was not prejudiced against people because of their poverty and treated everyone with gentleness like a spring breeze."
"After helping you, he realized the predicament you were in, so he made a promise before leaving that he would find a way to take you away from this place full of suffering after returning home."
"Those two seemingly ordinary cakes were the first rays of warm sunshine in your life after you had lived in darkness for twelve years. They became the sweetest and most unforgettable memories of your life."
