"Then how come the ghosts here don't know they are ghosts?"
Gongfu glanced at the corpse of Duan Guanshi on the ground and said, "It's all the mischief of the Yellow Weasel Demon. She is a subordinate of Ji Yuan, secretly offering tribute to the deity of the Ghost Mother Goddess. The Yellow Weasel Demon is the craftiest. The people of the town accepted her. She pretended to be an ignorant outsider and turned around asking the townsfolk whether they were human or ghost. The townsfolk did not dare reveal they were ghosts, so they said they were human... Consequently, no one knew they were ghosts."
It turns out the Yellow Weasel pleaded for a title, making all the ghosts here believe they were human.
The truth was completely revealed, and many doubts were dispelled simultaneously. Chen Yi should have felt relieved, but his brow somehow remained furrowed.
Having fewer doubts is good, but they are deeper now.
