Chapter 963: It’s Quite Troublesome

Xie Qiao somewhat understood what this old ghoul was worried about.

If he had left when he had just died, he would have been able to come up and take a breather during the festival in the future.

However, if he had missed that opportunity, it would really be difficult to go down later.

“You just said that there were fewer ghouls in your family. What’s going on?” Xie Qiao asked in detail.

“After all, the ghouls of my Baili family are all gathered together and often discuss with each other, so it’s not as easy to drift away as those ghouls outside who don’t know where they are. All these years, we’ve been living in the old house of the Baili family. The place is almost deserted, but in the eyes of

our ghouls, it’s the same as it was in the past.

“Everything was fine, but a month ago, there were suddenly five people missing. I first sent other children to look around, but when they were out looking, another three went missing. I thought that we could be considered as the more powerful ones among the ghouls. Back then, your great-grandmaster

also told me that a ghoul like me, who has lived for a long time and is still not confused, is very powerful. If I’m targeted by witchcraft, they would take me and keep me to do bad things.

“Twas afraid that something would happen to the other children in the family, so I had them hiding. I heard that you are proficient in both worlds and that you came from the Water Moon Temple, so I asked you for a favor.”

Actually, he had wanted to look for her for a long time.

Ever since the young lady had spread the name of the Water Moon Temple, he had been thinking whether or not he should ask her for help and send all the descendants of the family down.

However, with more people, there were more opinions.

For instance, even if the husband and wife died, they would still be a ghoul couple. They could still stay together, but if they went down and reincarnated in the future, they would really… not know each other anymore.

After so many years of being together, they could not bear to part with each other.

“Now that I think about it, as a ghoul, I’ve wandered enough. After we find them, regardless of whether they are willing or not, they will go down. They would still listen to me,” Baili Ji said.

Xie Qiao nodded. “If we can find them, we can talk about this later. It’s just that… These ghouls are elusive and difficult to find. If we really want to find them… we need to open the coffins.”

“Open the coffins?” Baili Ji was a little confused.

“That’s right, you guys are ghouls. I’ve never seen them before, so how can I find them easily? The only way is to see if we can find the bones. If we can find hair or bones, just give me a random piece of bone. I can perform a ritual to determine the location.”

This method was easy to say, but it was difficult to do, and it would consume a lot of energy.

Coincidentally, the blood reishi mushroom that she had obtained earlier was used to search for souls, and it was just right.

“My Baili family… My entire family was beheaded, and… my bones were crushed and scattered. Although there are my ancestral graves in the outskirts of the capital now, it’s a pity that most of them are just cenotaphs without bones…”

The previous emperor was too ruthless.

Not only did he crush the bones and scatter the ashes of the Baili family members at that time, he also dug up their ancestral graves in order to search for the world map.

Therefore, the name of the Baili family was well known throughout the world, but the things that others gave them as sacrifices were not detailed enough… So many of them could not be obtained. As a result, after becoming ghouls, they were quite poor.

Baili Ji looked at the clothes on his body and sighed.

It had been a long time since someone had burned new clothes for him. The clothes on his body were all worn.

However, after the matter was settled, perhaps this young lady could call out his family members’ names and the date of his death, and then burn things to them. This way, without any problems, he could wear a new set of clothes.

At the moment, the most important thing was still their bones

Baili Ji scratched his head, somewhat worried and uneasy.

He thought carefully again, and after a while, he said again, “Among the descendants that disappeared, perhaps there is one… that has bones left behind… But, it’s quite troublesome…”
