Chapter 20: The Change in the Imperial Capital, Right Eye Palm Life Left Eye Palm Death

  "Heaven... Heaven Master, spare my life! I know the whereabouts of a batch of old Buddha's treasures. If you spare me from death, little ghost will offer them all to you." The struggling Qing dynasty old ghost felt that the suction force coming from Xiao Yu's mouth was getting stronger and stronger, and he opened his mouth to beg for mercy. However, Xiao Yu had no intention of letting him go. Absorbing a living person's yang energy to cut off their lifespan was a great taboo. Moreover, after merging with Zhong Kui's memories, Xiao Yu's personality was also influenced by some aspects, and could be described as "gold, silver, power, and prestige are like floating clouds, only leaving the righteous energy in one's heart".

  Xiao Yu's right hand held a brush in the void, and a strand of golden light gathered at the tip of the brush. As Xiao Yu's hand moved the brush in the void, a point of golden light on the tip of the brush brought out a golden line that wandered in the pitch-black void. In an instant, a '镇' character composed of golden lines appeared in the void, and it was exceptionally dazzling in this dark and cloudy cave.

  In the instant that the golden character "town" took shape, swift as lightning, it struck the old ghost's forehead. In an instant, the struggling old ghost came to a stop in mid-air, its pair of eyes rapidly dimming.

  The old ghost stopped struggling and was sucked into Xiao Yu's belly by his big mouth.

  "Hmm……" Xiao Yu, restored to his original state, let out a loud belch. The lone ghosts and wild demons in his abdomen were quickly digested, and a refreshing energy surged towards his limbs and bones as the ghostly objects were being digested. Xiao Yu's yin soul was rapidly strengthened.

  No wonder, in the legend of Zhong Kui, it is said that Zhong Kui spent his whole life eating ghosts, especially evil ones. Every day he would not be happy if he didn't eat a ghost. It turns out that eating ghosts has such benefits, but after coming back to life, one must exercise their body well, otherwise the yin soul will become too strong and the physical strength won't keep up, the yin soul can't return to its rightful place, isn't it just being stuck as a ghost?

  Zhong Kui died in front of the Golden Temple, losing his physical body. Otherwise, with Zhong Kui's innate talent and the capital of a ghostly body cultivating the vast and righteous energy of heaven and earth, he would not have lost his life in the great calamity of heaven and earth.

  The empty tunnel space, the dark clouds dispersed, but everywhere was shrouded in mystery. The old ghost died, and the motionless train started to move again. Xiao Yu stood in mid-air, gazing at this mysterious space, but unfortunately, the train had already started moving, so he could only leave it for now and come back to explore later. With a thought, Xiao Yu's soul returned to his body, and he opened the bathroom door and walked out.

  The people on the bus remained unchanged, still unaware of the shocking scene that had just occurred. The couple sitting across from him was still chattering away, "What a disappointment, we didn't even see any ghosts." All Xiao Yu could do was smile wryly at this, truly ignorant people fear nothing. If they had really seen how the vengeful spirits had just rampaged through the bus, who knows what they would have thought.

  On the seat, the little boy had already poked his face out from behind his mother's back, and the look of fear on his face had slightly reduced. When he looked at Xiao Yu, there was a hint of admiration in his eyes.

  "Xiao Yu, don't you want to go to school like other kids?" Xiao Yu's face was pinched by Xiao Wei, who said with a warm smile.

  "Huh?" The little boy looked at Xiao Yu with a bewildered expression. Xiao Yu took out his brush and, just as the train emerged from the tunnel, people instinctively closed their eyes for an instant due to the sudden brightness after being in the dark for so long. At that moment, Xiao Yu waved his brush in front of the little boy's eyes.

  Seal

  Xiao Yu's low voice suddenly rang out, the pen tip flashed a burst of golden light and disappeared between the little boy's eyebrows.

  As the golden light disappeared in an instant, Xiao Yu's body swayed and leaned against the back of the seat, his face pale as a sheet, with beads of sweat the size of beans rolling down his forehead. In his heart, he sighed: "After all, the physical body can't compare to the yin soul. The yin soul, after being strengthened by Zhong Kui's true spirit fragments, can cast some low-level secret spells without any pressure, but the physical body can't. Without training and cultivation, even drawing a simple seal in mid-air would cause dizziness. It seems that before reaching a certain level of cultivation, I can only rely on auxiliary tools like yellow paper and cinnabar. Otherwise, the yin soul would escape, and escaping yin soul is too dangerous. If something goes wrong, the physical body would be destroyed, what a pity. Just like Iron Crutch Li in the Eight Immortals, originally with a handsome appearance, comparable to Pan An, but unfortunately his yin soul escaped and his physical body was destroyed. In desperation, he possessed the body of a beggar.

  After a brief adaptation, people's vision gradually recovered. Zhou Ruoying saw Xiao Yu's face turn pale and sweaty, and asked with concern: "Little brother, are you okay?"

  "It's nothing, thank you, sister." Xiao Yu shook his head and said.

  After a brief rest, Xiao Yu's spirit recovered somewhat, and he reopened his Yin-Yang eyes. Suddenly, Xiao Yu was taken aback as the two stripes connected to his eyes completely severed their connection with the mysterious stripes, becoming independent entities stored within his eyes. These two mysterious stripes could disperse along with the black-and-white world in Xiao Yu's Yin-Yang eyes, but this dispersion also had distance limitations. Xiao Yu experimented and found that dispersing two meters was already his limit.

  It's also unclear how long the experiment lasted, but Xiao Yu basically figured out some properties of the mysterious patterns in his eyes. First, these mysterious patterns exhibit different properties in different eyes. The black lines appear in the left black eye, while the white color appears in the right white eye.

  In addition, these two mysterious patterns can only be seen when one opens their yin-yang eyes. If the yin-yang eyes are not opened, the two patterns remain still and motionless within the eyes.

  Xiao Yu's eyes scanned the black and white world in the carriage, suddenly Xiao Yu's face was shocked and he stood there.

  It turned out that in front of Xiao Yu, there was a person with a large amount of black mist condensed on his body. This was a seriously ill patient who had likely gone to Beijing for medical treatment. After all, Beijing is the capital city and its medical conditions are not comparable to those in the deep sea. However, as soon as the white stripes that appeared in Xiao Yu's right eye in the black-and-white world came into contact with this patient, the black mist above him rapidly dissipated at a speed visible to the naked eye.

  As Xiao Yu tried to touch the patient with the black air from his left eye, the black air above the patient rapidly increased. In an instant, the black air on top of the patient's head was about to take shape. Xiao Yu suddenly retracted the black thread pattern in shock and confusion - what was going on?

  Xiao Yu once again used the white pattern on his right eye to make contact with the patient, and the black mist that was about to take shape on the patient's body quickly dissipated. In a moment, only a thin layer of black mist remained on the patient's head. Suddenly, Xiao Yu felt a wave of dizziness and blurred vision, which scared him into hastily cutting off the connection between the white pattern and the patient.

  He cut off the connection, Xiao You's mind was a bit tired, leaning on the seat with his eyes closed, but he was very excited in his heart: "This... this... can white lines save lives, and black lines can kill people?"
