Zhang Haoran stood at the door, lifted a corner of the curtain, and watched his operation.

Mao Shanming picked and chose, but didn't know which wine jar to put Dabao and Xiaobao in. In the end, he just relied on guessing and picked one at random from the wine jars.

At this time, Zhang Haoran heard footsteps behind him, turned around and found it was Uncle Jiu.

He pointed inside, indicating to Uncle Jiu that something was going on inside, and Uncle Jiu nodded to show that he understood.

Zhang Haoran turned his head and looked inside again, and found that Mao Shanming had already peeled off the talisman paper on the jar.

But after a while, a strong yin energy emerged from the wine jar, and a beautiful female ghost in black clothes emerged and sat there.

The female ghost used her charm and bewitched Mao Shanming with just a few words.

Mao Shanming has been bewitched by her beauty and wants to spend the night with her.

Seeing this, Uncle Jiu lifted the door curtain and walked in.

When the female ghost saw Uncle Jiu, she screamed and escaped through the open window.

"Master, I'll go after him!" Zhang Haoran said, and ran out without waiting for Uncle Jiu to say anything.

The spiritual energy gathered in his eyes, and the dark world suddenly became colorful.

Seeing the direction the figure was floating in, Zhang Haoran followed.

The female ghost seemed to have noticed someone chasing her and suddenly sped up.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Haoran took out a violent talisman from his arms. As the name suggests, when activated, a ball of scorching flame will suddenly erupt. It carries the attributes of extreme yang and strength. As long as the ghost is contaminated by one star, it will be inextinguishable until it turns into ashes.

"The Supreme Command, go!"

The talisman paper turned into a meteor and shot towards the front of the female ghost.

"Bang~!"

The moment it landed, a ball of light suddenly burst out, piercing people's eyes like a small sun.

But it only lasted for a moment, the light disappeared, and the world became dark again.

The female ghost was frightened. The horrifying aura that burst out made her feel palpitations. She collapsed on the ground, not daring to move.

Zhang Haoran had no intention of destroying her directly, otherwise the talisman would have fallen directly on her.

"Master, please spare my life. I will never dare to do it again." The female ghost saw Zhang Hao and kowtowed and begged for mercy.

"Stand up and talk first. I don't mean to get rid of you." The reason why Zhang Haoran chased him out so actively was that he wanted to see if he could convert him and earn some merit points.

Zhang Haoran knew that the female ghost in front of him was not an evil ghost, because he could see that she had no karma, only resentment.

Furthermore, if it was an evil ghost, Uncle Jiu would not have kept it alive. He would have probably beaten it to death on the spot.

The female ghost stood up with some fear.

Zhang Haoran took a look at her and to be honest, she was indeed very beautiful, especially when she looked frightened now, which really made him feel pity for her.

But he just looked at it appreciatively and quickly regained his attention.

"What's your name?"

"Master Taoist, my name in life was Yu Xiaolian. You can just call me Xiaolian." The female ghost replied.

"Well, Xiaolian, let me ask you, do you want to reincarnate? If you do, I can help you." Zhang Haoran nodded and got straight to the point.

According to what he thought, when he said that he could help her reincarnate, she would thank him profusely and cry bitterly.

But who would have thought that Yu Xiaolian would just shake her head and say, "Master, I don't want to be reincarnated?"

This answer surprised Zhang Haoran. He asked, "Can you tell me why?"

“Master, I have been wandering in the world for hundreds of years. Whether it is what I encountered in my life or what I saw and heard after my death, they all told me one truth, that is, people’s hearts are treacherous, there is no fairness, and life is tiring.

So I don’t want to be reborn as a human being again, and come back to this world to struggle for a few grains of rice.” Yu Xiaolian’s face was gloomy, as if she had seen through the world.

Zhang Haoran couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly after hearing this: "You really see through everything in the world.

Although I admit that you are right, it is better to be a human being than for me to capture you and put you in that dark jar, right? "

"Xiao Lian has been accustomed to loneliness for hundreds of years. For me, it's the same wherever I stay. Although it's a little stuffy in the jar, it's not unbearable." Yu Xiaolian said.

"Haha, you leave me speechless." Zhang Haoran looked up at the night sky. The weather was clear, and the moon was bright.

"Since we have nothing to do, let's chat for a while." He casually took out some food from the space, and took out a stick of incense, lit it and stuck it into the ground: "It's been a long time since you have eaten incense offerings, you're welcome."

Zhang Haoran took out a bottle of wine, poured himself a glass and started drinking.

"Thank you, Taoist priest. You are such a good person." Yu Xiaolian was delighted and hurried forward and squatted on the ground to enjoy it.

"Pfft~cough cough..."

Xiaolian looked up at Zhang Haoran with a bewildered look on her face: "What's wrong, Taoist priest? Are you okay?"

"Uh~ It's okay, I just choked on the wine, that's all. And, Xiaolian, don't use the word 'good person' to describe other people casually in the future." Zhang Haoran felt very depressed after being given the 'good person' card.

"Why?" Xiaolian looked puzzled.

"Well, in our parents' opinion, if you say someone is a good person, it's easy for others to misunderstand you..." Zhang Haoran told Xiaolian another meaning of a good person in reality while chatting.

Yu Xiaolian found it very interesting and laughed: "The people in your hometown are really weird. It's obviously a very good compliment, but they turned it into a way for bad women to abandon crazy men."

"Haha, there are many more, I am too lazy to talk about them. But speaking of which, what are you going to do in the future?

Even if I don't accept you and let you wander around in the world, what if you meet some powerful person who beats you to death without asking why, or what if you meet some powerful evil ghost who turns you into nutrients to increase its strength? "Zhang Haoran said.

"Well... I don't know. If you, Taoist priest, really let me go, then I can only continue to be a lonely ghost. If I really encounter something like what you said, that is my fate." Xiaolian was very open-minded and said nonchalantly.

Hearing this, Zhang Haoran was very envious of her open-minded character.

From what she said before, we can guess that she is a person with a tragic fate.

"Xiao Lian, can you tell me your story?" Zhang Haoran asked after taking a sip of wine.

"As for me, I don't have much to say. When I was alive, I was just a girl from an ordinary farm family. My father was a gambler and he lost everything in the house. My mother died early, and I was left alone. I could only make a living by doing sewing for others and picking wild vegetables in the mountains."

As she spoke, Yu Xiaolian's thoughts seemed to be pulled back to everything she had experienced, and her expression became somewhat sad.
