t's likely that it sold out early."Xiao Qiao, what are you looking at" Song Wei walked over and asked.I shook my head and said, "This house has bad feng shui. The shape is pointing straight at you, a...My scalp went numb, I shrank behind Jiang Qiyun and acted like a turtle, too afraid to make a move.
My brother winked at the eldest and said, "All who come in are just Soul Gatherers. Let's strike first! Whoever they are, beat them up first and then talk! Capture them and interrogate them! It'll save us a lot of trouble searching."
Jiang Qiyun drew a barrier to cover me and him. My brother and Da Bao heard the noise and walked to the door. The two immediately jumped out—
The people outside were prepared too. I heard the clash of two copper swords, and a man's voice roared: "Who are you! How did you get in—"
My older brother growled with a gruff, menacing tone: "Come in through the front door! What kind of demon or evil spirit are you Setting up this spooky house here and thinking you can get away with it Get my family's things back right now!"
My brother has an exceptional mindset. I admire him deeply. Whether it's digging up graves, picking locks, or scaling walls, he does it with a straight face and unwavering conviction. He's inherited his family's talent for having thick skin and a black heart perfectly.
He was arrogant, so the other party naturally felt apprehensive—after all, his secret room had been invaded and thoroughly explored. The other party must have felt guilty!
If someone unfamiliar with the place were to enter this house at other times, they would only feel a spooky, haunted atmosphere and wouldn't be able to see with their own eyes the source of the Hou family's nightmares.
We're here because we're the experts, and they're afraid.
Besides, my brother and Da Bao were both imposing figures. The man blocked my brother's sword and turned to run.
Dabo was lean and agile, leaping onto the decorated table with a single jump. He discarded his peachwood sword and charged directly at the man!
The man was rather plump. Dabao pounced on his back and pressed down hard, sending him tumbling down the stairs!
"Whoa, big bro! You little dude playing with fire like that Don't kill yourself!" My brother rushed down to grab the man.
Dabao was pressed so hard he could barely breathe, cursing, "My god, is Po's this heavy! This guy is a pig!"
“How did you get in here! This place has been requisitioned by our Xuanxuan Society! You have the guts to provoke our Xuanxuan Society! Aren't you afraid of being hunted down by thousands of our members!” The man was a bit panicked. When he saw my brother, his eyes flickered noticeably.
“Hmph, you're kidding! The Xuanyuan Society, such a loose bounty organization, would actually come after me Aren't they supposed to be the righteous path What you've done is considered righteous Spill it! Otherwise, young master—”
Every time my brother utters threats, Jiang Qiyun takes action.
He pulled me with one hand and, with the other, he pinched a formula to summon a yin official and several ghost messengers.
Those ghosts weren't cute little ghost servants, but rather had long limbs, large bellies, four sharp horns on their foreheads, and hideous faces.
Officer!
I've seen this kind of executioner before, they are specialized in carrying out executions and torture.
The Yin official, Chao Jiang, rose from his position and respectfully bowed: “Imperial Lord, do you have any commands”
Jiang Qiyun pointed his chin at the man: “ … This deity has no time to waste with him, immediately extract the location of Mingzhang’s hiding place.”
The jailer and executioners immediately swooped down on the man, chaining his head, neck, and limbs.
My brother and Da Bao quickly dodged out of the way: "The professional ghost inquisitor is here… Go easy on him, don't scatter his soul completely!"
The man, upon seeing the Yin official and ghost messenger, trembled with fear and cried out, "You... you are who What honored deity is this Please spare my life! I was only following orders!"
The constable pulled out a bone knife, the tip gently inserted into the top of his head at the Baihui point. "Don't move," he warned, "or I'll damage your skin and it'll be hard to stitch back up properly later!"
"Ahhhh—no, no! I'll talk, I'll talk! Don't skin me alive! I'll say anything!" He peed his pants in terror.
He originally thought it was only his brother and the eldest who broke in, intending to resist stubbornly or escape. Unexpectedly, there was a deity hidden somewhere else. Seeing the yin officials and ghosts, he knew he couldn't escape.
The light was too dim, and this person's face was pale with fear. I stared at him for a long time and whispered, "This person seems to be surnamed Liu The Hou family once hired him to exorcise ghosts, but when he saw me holding the Yu Xun Ji, he said that I was Shen Jia Kun Dao, and then left in a huff."
When Mr. Liu heard this, his face turned even paler. My brother smiled and said, “No wonder you ran away when you saw the young master! You recognized me You’re brave, daring to hide things from my house! You dare to bully the Mu family but not the Shen family”
"No, no... Mu's family is joking. We all know the relationship between the Shen and Mu families is close now... Neither family dares to provoke or touch the other!" He said weakly, contradicting himself.
"Shut up and get to the point!" my brother kicked him.
Liu, begging for his life, explained the grudge he had against the Hou family. It turned out that the corpse under the old master Hou in the living room downstairs was his ex-wife. They had colluded and tricked the old master Hou into getting him to make a mistake. His ex-wife then demanded a divorce. After the divorce, she obediently followed him.
But his ex-wife was bold and wanted to usurp the throne, so she was killed by Old Master Hou. He found someone to take the blame, and Old Master Hou continued to live a life of impunity.
He bore a grudge, ran to another place to change his appearance, and from a martial arts master he learned some sorcery and geomancy. He began to plot against the Hou family, intending to use these methods for revenge.
Indeed, this method harms people insidiously. And over the years, its cumulative effect has contributed to the current state of dilapidation of the Hou family.
"Don't try to evade the question. Who cares about your petty problems What kind of person led you to create such a method at the Hou residence And who told you to hide the seal here"
"Yes... yes..."
His eyes darted around, his heart wavering, and Xing Gui immediately plunged a blade into his waist.
Liu was screaming in agony, his body trembling violently. His voice nearly shattered the roof.
I couldn't help but turn my head to avoid the scene.
The jailer was very perceptive. He slapped the constable on the head, sending the rotund officer staggering and nearly toppling over.
"Miss, you're here! How dare you hit so hard! Fool!"
The executioner patted his own head in grievance, retreating to the side and no longer daring to brandish his blade.
My brother laughed and said, “It’s okay, it’s okay. We just need some solid evidence! Otherwise, this slippery and shady guy won't confess honestly!”
"I said, I said...it's, it's Chairman Situ! He gave me the lock! And he instructed me to hide it in a secluded place!! If you have grievances, go find him! Please let me go! I'll lead you to get it..."
The executioner and the underling led him to retrieve the hidden lock.
I nervously told Jiang Qiyun, "Si Tu Lin's father is now the Head of the Dao Association. He has immense power. In the human world, he possesses both Dao techniques and authority, and he is also controlled by Si Tu Lin. How can we possibly deal with this"for this restless and apprehensive feeling, so I might as well pour out my discontent to him.He chuckled softly, pushing me down onto the pillow and whispering, “I've seen the ups and downs of life, t...
