Curse of the Burial Scripture

Chapter 80 Concealed

On the way back to Hu's house, I saw a vendor selling candied haws on a stick. I was so greedy that I bought a bunch of them and ate them while thinking of ways to deal with Hu Xiang in the future. Naturally, one must fulfill one's promise when entrusted by others, but I also have to admit that the situation facing the Hu family is indeed unclear now. First of all, the Hu family has no backbone except Hu Xiang. Both the Hu family and his wife fell ill, and their health condition deteriorated day by day. Hu Xiang did as much business as Hu Dabao. If this trend continues, it is expected that Hu Xiang will gradually take over all the business from Hu Dabao. As far as the current situation is concerned, the easiest way is to kill Hu Xiang directly - it is no exaggeration to say that as long as I have enough materials, I have a hundred and one ways to kill Hu Xiang. But I definitely can't do this. One of the most important reasons is that what I have now is not my own body. This is Hu Hui's body, not my own. Using the spells in the Burial Scripture to deal with Hu Xiang in this state will damage my moral integrity. It is impossible for me to live in the state of being possessed by Hu Hui. Sooner or later, I will have to find my own body. Although I survived this way, it was not a long-term solution. And if I have lost my moral character when I get my body back, I will be severely punished. The reason is also very simple, because Hu Hui is not an underground burial master, and there is no blood of the descendants of underground burial masters flowing in her body. Although the underground burial master is a profession among demon slayers, its particularity determines that outsiders cannot become the underground burial master through acquired efforts. Almost all underground burial masters have become underground burial masters through family blood inheritance. Anyway, I have never heard of a person who became an underground burial master through hard work. "I definitely can't do it myself first, I definitely have to think of other ways..." I was trapped in the distress of dealing with Hu Xiang, and unknowingly I had arrived at the Hu family compound. I glanced at the courtyard. There were only a few people there, and few people seemed to have noticed me. After sorting out my mentality, I walked into the yard for the first time in a long time. Just as I expected, when I returned home, everyone had almost the same reaction when they saw me. He was stunned for three seconds at first, and then his eyes widened and he began to scream in terror, his face almost devoid of human color.Even if I wanted to explain, these guys didn't give me the slightest chance. After a long time of trouble, Hu Dabao was finally called out. After he came, I finally got help. Among this group of people, only Hu Dabao was not surprised by his daughter's "return". Hu Dabao followed his grandfather's words and buried his daughter in Nanshan Ridge, and his grandfather did not deceive him - Hu Hui, his daughter, did return to him again. It's just that he doesn't know that it's me inside Hu Hui's body now. Hu Dabao, who was in tears, ran out of the crowd and hugged me tightly with his thin and old body. I am not unfamiliar with Hu Dabao. After all, I have read almost all of his life's deeds in my precognitive dream. But being hugged like this by an old man still felt weird. I guess it will take me a long time to adapt to the fact that I have become a woman. Anyway, I feel uncomfortable now and I really can't treat Hu Dabao as my father. Amidst the embarrassment, I ended this warm scene as soon as possible. After finding an excuse to talk to Hu Dabao about something privately, I came to Hu Dabao's bedroom. Hu Dabao's complexion was still a little blue, and between his eyebrows, there was a faint black color. Seeing this phenomenon, I couldn't help but frown. Most people would definitely not be able to detect this phenomenon. At most, they would think that Hu Dabao's complexion was a little bad. After all, Hu Dabao has been ill for too long, and the curse has no solution. But I can find that Hu Dabao's current state is already very dangerous. If he continues to let things go like this, he will probably reach the end soon. At that time, under the punishment of the curse, the gods will come down to earth to save Hu Dabao. It is also difficult to reach the sky. I worried for a long time, thinking about whether I should tell Hu Dabao that Hu Hui was now in someone else's body. But seeing the relief on Hu Dabao's face and the weakness and exhaustion that couldn't be hidden in his eyes, I felt soft and thought I'd better forget it. For this old man, the backlog of worries in his heart is not small now. There is no need to add trouble to him. It will not be too late to tell him after I have solved everything. With this in mind, I also started talking to Hu Dabao. Hu Dabao told Hu Dabao the lie he had thought about before coming to Hu's house about coming back to life. Since I also knew a lot about Hu Dabao and Hu Hui, Hu Dabao naturally believed my words. That night, the Hu family seemed to be lively after a long time, but the atmosphere was somewhat strange, because although Hu Dabao personally hosted and held the dinner, the protagonist was his daughter who had come back from the dead, which felt very strange. After getting the news, Hu Dabao's wife quickly found me and pulled me to look left and right, looking very shocked. In the beginning, like everyone else, she was somewhat afraid of me.But after asking me a few very cryptic questions, I noticed them all in time, and cleverly avoided the important ones and answered them lightly. She completely believed that I was Hu Hui. Although I was the protagonist of the dinner this time, I failed to enjoy the warm and harmonious atmosphere that should have been harmonious - I don’t know how Hu Xiang knew. As far as I know, Hu Xiang was supposed to be out of town because of business, but not long after the dinner was held, Hu Xiang actually appeared at the Hu family, and when she saw me, the expression on her face was... How wonderful. After not seeing him for a few days, Hu Xiang's appearance has completely changed. If Hu Xiang was like a coquettish little fox before, now she is like a queen with thorns all over her body. From Hu Xiang's eyes, I couldn't see a trace of warmth, only a deep hidden indifference, but she was still stunned for a while, then ran towards me crying and hugged me hard. I seem to have suffered greatly because of Hu Hui's death. If you want to deal with such a cruel woman, you have no other way, you have to be even more cruel than her. I thought about Hu Hui, who was kept in the dark by Hu Xiang almost until his death, and I sneered in my heart. Then I smiled calmly and hugged Hu Xiang deeply. Hu Xiang's voice was choked with sobs. She said, sister, there is hardly a day when I don't dream about you these days. I always think that you are not dead yet, and you will definitely come back to me. I didn't expect that... The dream really did come true. I just kept a calm smile and responded to her - when Hu Xiang came in, I saw two people in different clothes following her. One of them was wearing a shabby light green linen robe. He seemed to be blind and rolled his eyes. There was a shocking red scar on his face and his curly hair was messy. He looked more like a beggar than a beggar. The other one had a more indifferent atmosphere, wearing a dark blue robe and a big bamboo hat on his head, almost covering his entire face. If Hu Hui saw these two people, he probably wouldn't have any doubts, just like the rest of the Hu family now. But I saw the true identity of these two people. That beggar-like man is an old wizard. I have seen this old guy in my precognitive dream. The other one is also a demon slayer, but it is a rare profession. The profession of exorcist is different from that of Taoist priests and mages. If the first two are mainstream professions, then exorcist is of the same nature as the Xiangxi corpse exorcism school. This genre has very few descendants and has a long history. If it can be traced back, it can probably be traced directly back to the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties. But after the spread to this day, even among people in the circle, very few people understand the history of the exorcist profession. The vast amount of knowledge contained in the burial scriptures allowed me to understand his identity as an exorcist from his clothing. The most critical thing was the glove he wore on his right hand. There was a red figure carved on the glove. Yin and Yang array. Most people wouldn't understand what's special about this, but in fact, this red yin-yang array is the exclusive symbol of the Exorcist. I thought that as soon as he took off his gloves, there would be a huge bloody hole in the palm of his right hand. And this blood hole has a very terrifying effect. Although I don’t know where he heard it from, Hu Xiang came here overnight after knowing about my resurrection from the dead, and brought an old wizard and an exorcist with him. From this behavior, I could tell how extreme and deep the resentment accumulated in Hu Xiang's heart was at this moment. However, nothing unusual happened that night. After Hu Xiang greeted me and performed a scene of sisterly love with me, he excused himself from the banquet because he was busy with work. However, after Hu Xiang left, Hu Dabao and his wife called me into their bedroom and warned me that I must never have a heart-to-heart relationship with Hu Xiang again. Although they, as parents, felt really ashamed when they told me this kind of thing in person, they still hoped that I would be careful. Especially Hu Dabao's wife, when she said these words, her face was full of sadness, and the fatigue in her eyes seemed to explain everything. I think if Hu Dabao's wife was even 10 years younger, she would come forward to solve everything for me. But people have to obey old age after all. Hu Xiang is in his prime, and Hu Dabao's wife will be 60 years old in two years. She is really no match for young people. I promised them that I would be careful and returned to my room. The first day was spent peacefully. Early the next morning, before six o'clock in the morning, there was a rapid knock on the door. I stood up in a daze and opened the door. I found Hu Xiang and the two people I had met yesterday. The old wizard and exorcist appeared at the door. When Hu Xiang saw me, he first showed a sweet smile and said that his sister was still sleeping and hadn't gotten up. I was already a little angry when I got up, and the person I saw was Hu Xiang so early in the morning, I was in a very bad mood, so I told her angrily that it was not six o'clock yet. However, Hu Xiang didn't listen to me at all. With a smile on his face, he led two people into my house without authorization, and immediately closed the door tightly without saying a word. Upon seeing this, I immediately cheered up and looked at Hu Xiang warily.
