After a while of searching, Li Mazi found something. Zhang Xuecheng, the commander of the Northeastern Army during the resistance war against the Japanese army – also Zhang Xueliang’s cousin – once redeemed a Japanese woman from the Great Eight Streets. That woman was named Koasa Masako.
This was the only useful clue we had learned until now.
However, the names didn’t match. I searched the secret website for the name Masako. The moment I saw that her Chinese name was Bai Xiya, I was so excited that my hands shook.
It was her!
I hadn’t expected that the ghost in red was Japanese!
It turned out that when she was living in the Eight Great Streets, she only sold her talent and not her body. However, since she was incredibly beautiful, many young men in Beijing desired her.
One day, General Zhang Xuecheng from the Northeastern Army went to Beijing. Both their hearts raced when they first saw each other. Zhang Xuecheng paid a lot of money to redeem her.
Since the relationship between China and Japan was really tense and sensitive at that time, Koasa Masako changed her name to Bai Xiya before she married General Zhang Xuecheng.
Unfortunately, the happy days didn’t last long. After the fall of the Northeastern Army, Zhang Xuecheng changed greatly. He bowed to the enemy and became a traitor. The Japanese army made him the General Commander of the traitor army, where he became the oppressor to people living in Northeastern areas. In the end, he had to repay for his sin. His cousin, Zhang Xueliang, sent troops to kill him.
To show her loyalty to her husband, Bai Xiya hung herself in front of his grave.
The two of them had died bearing grudges. One took possession of an otherworldly item, while the other one reincarnated without ever forgetting her deceased husband.
With great luck, the couple had met again in this villa.
After I got all of the information, I was no longer worried about this case. However, I pitied this couple.
Zhang Xuecheng was an ambitious man. However, he was in his cousin’s shadow all of his life. In the end, he changed, which made him walk down the wrong path.
Everybody else cursed him for being a traitor. Only Bai Xiya understood him.
As Senior Shu had told me, as long as I could get rid of the obsession the spirits had, they would vanish by themselves.
Compared to Zhang Xueliang, it was easier to deal with Bai Xiya. Although she had strong resentful energy, it was about love.
As for Zhang Xuecheng, if Bai Xiya went to reincarnate, he would let everything go. In the worst case, I could forcefully kill him. I had never felt mercy towards traitors.
I had an idea. I asked Li Mazi to go to the flea market and get me two Northeastern Army uniforms. To feel assured, I even asked Yin Xinyue to tell us how to wrap Li Mazi in Zhang Xueliang’s style.
Zhang Xuecheng had been under Zhang Xueliang’s shadow his whole life. In the end, he even died in his hands, so he had to be afraid of him!
I spent the entire afternoon in Xiao Li’s study room, drawing talismans. It wasn’t that I couldn’t draw the right patterns; I just felt in the mood to draw.
Normally, it wasn’t bad if one of the ten talismans I drew worked. But after receiving Senior Shu’s guidance, my state of mind improved. Today, my success rate was close to 20%!
Li Mazi understood that drawing talismans was an energy-draining activity. He kept urging me to stop. “Hey brother, stop drawing. If you waste too much of your energy now, you won’t be able to do anything tonight.”
In the end, he snatched the remaining yellow papers from me, which forced me to stop. I counted and found that I had drawn around ten successful talismans. I nodded, feeling satisfied.
It was around twilight, and I decided to take a nap. When Li Mazi woke me up, it was already late at night. I rubbed my eyes and looked at the bedroom on the second floor. The black mist at the door had grown thicker.
I didn’t know why, but I suddenly remembered Xiao Li’s ancestor. Perhaps the black mist was there to prevent her from entering the room.
Normal people couldn’t see the black mist, and spirits wouldn’t usually give warnings to living people.
While thinking of this, I kept an eye on it. If I had a chance, I would break that mist and let Xiao Li’s ancestor go in to help us.
At midnight, I asked Xiao Li to hide in the toilet and told her not to go out unless I call her.
With her hiding, Li Mazi and I didn’t need to worry about protecting her. It was also to prevent the ghosts from bewitching us.
Not long after Xiao Li hid in the toilet, we heard Yuan Datou’s voice from the second floor. “Xiya, you should go and reincarnate! You don’t need to keep missing me. I hope that you will have a good family in your next life and get a good husband. Forget about me. I’m just a traitor.”
“General, please don’t talk like that. It was so hard for me to meet up with you again. I don’t want to leave you!” Bai Xiya sounded resolute.
“Little Brother Zhang, now is not the right time for us to go in there, right?” Even Li Mazi, a blunt and careless fellow, looked touched. How could I not be moved?
However, I didn’t have a choice. It was a good time for us to take action. I took the lead and went straight upstairs. Li Mazi followed after me.
This time, I didn’t hesitate and kicked the room open. Before the two ghosts in the room could react, I shouted, “Reporting to the Young Warlord! Zhang Xuecheng has betrayed our country! He’s a traitor for the Japanese! He shames the Zhang family. How should we punish him?”
While talking, I carefully gazed at Yuan Datou. Instantly, his eyes turned bloodshot. He clenched his jaw and looked as if he wanted to tear me apart.
My heart raced, but I had to pretend that I wasn’t scared.
The moment Yuan Datou was about to burst, Li Mazi stepped in, wearing the uniform of Kuomintang with a cool coat. He talked coldly, “I have always treated you as my good brother, hoping that you would bring glory to our Zhang family. I never expected that you would go so far. Sigh! I, Zhang Xueliang, will exterminate this traitor to protect our country! No mercy!”
I had to admit that Li Mazi’s domineering speech had the style of the Young Warlord. I thought if we didn’t succeed this time, luck wasn’t on our side.
Luckily for us, after Li Mazi spoke, Yuan Datou’s face paled. He shook off Bai Xiya’s hand and prepared to flee.
I had been waiting for this chance. The moment he started to run, I stormed forward and read the Big Dipper Sirius Spell. I wielded my Sirius Whip and lashed at Yuan Datou’s arm.
Yuan Datou screeched, and smoke rose from his arm. He was scared, and his courage was gone. He didn’t resist at all. He let go of Bai Xiya and ran out of the room.
He must have thought that Li Mazi and I would chase after him. That was why he left Bai Xiya.
Too bad that he was wrong. Everything was going according to my plan!
After he left the room, I closed the door and stuck a few talismans on it. After I confirmed that he couldn’t enter the room, I turned to see Bai Xiya.
I thought that she would roll her eyes, bare her teeth, and take revenge on me and Li Mazi. However, she maintained her formal sitting posture on the bed. When she saw me, she gave me a deep bow, the most respectful greeting form in Japanese culture.
Then, she got off the bed and slowly walked toward us.
I didn’t understand what she meant by her actions. However, my mind told me that I shouldn’t be careless. She hadn’t taken action yet because she was afraid of us.
Li Mazi had just performed beyond his normal capacity, but when he saw the ghost approaching us, he was frightened. He dumbly asked me, “What should we do now?”
I cursed under my breath.
Bai Xiya was surprised for a while. Then, she beamed evilly. Her beautiful face turned into the appearance of a ghost that had hung herself. She reached her hands and tried to strangle Li Mazi. Her long fingernails sparkled in the cold light.
“Why the heck are you standing idle there? Use the talismans!” I screamed and lashed the Sirius Whip at her shoulder.
Bai Xiya’s shoulder sizzled, and black smoke rose from it.
She screamed horribly, and her hostile eyes gazed at me. She ignored Li Mazi and stormed toward me.
My heart raced. I used all of my strength to lash the Sirius Whip at her. After each whip, she would screech in pain. However, she didn’t dodge, not even once, and did her best to shorten the distance between us.
I lashed the whip seven times, and after its power was exhausted, I reluctantly put it away and used the talismans to attack her.
Unfortunately, my cultivation wasn’t high enough. Even when I used the talismans, the ghost was merely slowed down. My talismans didn’t work well on her.
I soon used all the talismans I had with me. The ghost laughed crazily and grabbed my neck tightly.
Li Mazi roared. He stormed forward and grabbed Bai Xiao from behind, crazily sticking the talismans on her body.
Under our double attack, she could no longer keep her calm. Her figure became translucent.
I fell to the ground and seized the time to look at the door. The black mist there was dispersing. I realized that the female ghost was the one behind that black mist.
As soon as I understood it, I turned and screamed at Li Mazi, “Don’t mind her! Attack the black mist!”
I guessed that Xiao Li’s ancestor would come to help us. Before, she didn’t dare to show up. But now, only Bai Xiya was here, and we had hurt her a lot. As such, it was likely that she would appear.
Li Mazi turned and ran toward the door. Unexpectedly, Bai Xiya stopped attacking me and turned around to chase after Li Mazi.
She was flustered. My assumption was correct. I got up, used all of my strength to grab her, and held her back. I wanted to make more time for Li Mazi.
Bai Xiya was completely frantic. She roared and tried to shake me off. She shook me so much that my head went blank. Instinctively, I let go of her.
At this critical moment, Li Mazi cried, “The black mist is gone!”
