Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Qi Shuangshuang couldn’t care about the people escaping because the Flame Rope from the main house had already surged into the courtyard and was chasing after everyone, clearly unwilling to let it go.

Qi Shuangshuang raised her hand, and the red talismans swiftly formed in her palm, the talismans drawn in the void took only an instant.

This time, the talismans left Qi Shuangshuang’s palm and transformed into a large net emitting a red glow, which directly ensnared those Flame Ropes along with the fire.

The netted Flame Ropes twisted and struggled for a while, finally transforming into a graceful Middle-aged man in ancient attire. As soon as the Middle-aged man appeared, he looked at the people in the courtyard with angry eyes.

The people in the courtyard were shocked by this turn of events, realizing that ghosts did indeed exist in this world. At the same time, their gaze at Qi Shuangshuang changed; this young girl could actually catch ghosts! No one knew her origin.

At this moment, the Evil Spirit trapped by Qi Shuangshuang was glaring angrily at her, ”Let me go. You came to my house to rest, and I didn’t chase you away, yet you are helping these rude people who insulted my wife?”

Qi Shuangshuang looked at the people behind who were scared like startled birds, with puzzled expressions on their faces, and sighed helplessly.

”Sir, there may be some misunderstanding here. Why don’t you tell us how they insulted your wife? If it’s indeed their fault, I won’t take their side.”

The Evil Spirit, seeing he was no match for Qi Shuangshuang and knowing that he couldn’t deal with those people with her in the way, could only glare at them unwillingly.

Then he looked at Qi Shuangshuang and said angrily, ”These people barged into my home, and chopped up all my furniture for firewood.

That can’t be helped, I’m dead anyway; I don’t need those things anymore. But they shouldn’t have gone so far as to chop my wife’s memorial tablet for firewood as well!”

As he spoke, the Evil Spirit’s voice grew louder, and his face was full of resentment, clearly infuriated by these people’s actions!

Qi Shuangshuang remained silent. Memorial tablets are extremely important, whether for the living or the dead. For the living, they are spiritual anchors, the root of a family.

For the dead, hearing the words of the younger generations’ worship and enjoying their offerings and incense all depend on the memorial tablet, making them more important than tombstones. No wonder this Evil Spirit was so angry.

Qi Shuangshuang turned back to the people, whose faces were still quite grim, and they all looked towards the person responsible for chopping wood.

The one responsible for chopping wood was almost in tears, and with a mournful expression said, ”I, I didn’t know. It was pitch-black at the time, and I was chopping firewood by feel. I really didn’t see what I was chopping at.”

Qi Shuangshuang’s mouth twitched. She had warned them beforehand not to stay in the main house, to avoid angering the Evil Spirit there.

As it turned out, not only did they not listen, but they also chopped up the memorial tablet of the wife, which surely wouldn’t be let go by the Evil Spirit. On the other hand, Qi Shuangshuang couldn’t just let the Evil Spirit kill them.

Qi Shuangshuang looked at the leading man and directly said, ”You’ve heard the whole story, what do you intend to do about it?”

Qi Shuangshuang’s words were also probing. If the man wanted her to suppress the Evil Spirit, she would release him and leave the matter alone.

To Qi Shuangshuang, humans and ghosts are equal, without distinction of status. If humans make mistakes and think they can eliminate ghosts because the other party is a ghost, without needing to compensate for their mistakes, Qi Shuangshuang would not care whether they live or die.

Fortunately, this man was decent and didn’t have such thoughts. He directly said, ”This matter is indeed our fault, we admit it, but it wasn’t intentional.

Could the master please mediate for us with this gentleman and see if there’s another way to compensate him, as long as no lives are taken or anything against divine or human principles, we won’t refuse any price.”

The man’s attitude was rather good, which satisfied Qi Shuangshuang, so she released the Evil Spirit’s restraints and said to him, ”Since they didn’t mean it, don’t be so ruthless.

You have been here for a long time and haven’t harmed anyone, showing your good character. Presumably, you linger here because your wish remains unfulfilled.

Why not tell them your wish and let them fulfill it, as compensation for their wrongs?”

The Evil Spirit indeed was a reasonable person. Hearing their words, there was already some hesitance in his manner.

Moreover, being controlled by Qi Shuangshuang, he couldn’t continue to do anything to those people, and his remaining here was indeed tied to his unfulfilled desires.

Qi Shuangshuang noticed the Evil Spirit’s attitude had softened and continued, ”You died here, and because of your strong attachments, you’re bound and unable to leave.

If you try to fulfill your wish by yourself, it may be a long shot. Why not let others help you, so you can soon fulfill your wish and find liberation.”

The leading man also quickly expressed his stance, ”Today’s event is indeed our fault. If you are willing, we will do our utmost to fulfill your wish and relieve your attachment.”

Perhaps the waiting had been too long, and the Evil Spirit grew tired of it. Now that someone was willing to help, he hesitated for a moment and agreed.

It was cold outside, and everyone re-entered the main house, lit a fire to keep warm, and this time the flames were normal in color and warmth.

However, the previous scare was too intense, so as soon as they entered the main house, everyone was nervous.

No one dared to sit around the fire, opting to stand scattered by the windows and doors, keeping them open in case they needed to escape.

Only Qi Shuangshuang and the gutsy leading man sat by the fire, listening to the Evil Spirit recount his wish.

The Evil Spirit was named Pei Shaosen, whose father began with nothing, earning a large fortune through commerce.

However, once wealth was acquired, the desire to elevate social status arose, as businessmen were at the bottom of the social hierarchy, facing discrimination despite their wealth, which was unacceptable to Pei Shaosen’s father.

Resolutely, he ended his money-making business, returned to his hometown, acquired a large amount of fertile land, and focused on educating his son Pei Shaosen, determined to change his family’s standing through his son’s success.

For a good reputation, Pei Shaosen’s father never hesitated to spend money, generously helping neighboring villagers in need, even reducing the rent by ten percent for leased land.

As a result, the reputation of the Pei Family spread quickly, praised by everyone, with only good words spoken about them.
