Soon, it was the day of the dinner party.
Gu Wuji found a hidden place to use the disguise props, and prepared for a quick solution tonight. After all, his disguise props can only last for a while. If his identity is revealed on the scene, it will definitely become a scandal!
Something like a male star who has been in the limelight recently disguised himself as a woman at a banquet will definitely make headlines.
In the car, Xia Yangshuo was very nervous because of the banquet that followed. Even if he had full confidence in Gu Wuji's strength, his psychological quality was not bad, but he couldn't help but face such a major event that could affect the trajectory of his entire life. perturbed.
Gu Wuji began to recall the information Xia Yangshuo had shown him before. It is said that the Xia family is a relatively rich family in this city. But in fact, a few decades ago, there was a period of sluggishness, and the owner of the family at that time chose to let the heir at that time, that is, the old man who was going to choose the heir, marry the daughter of a nouveau riche to make a business marriage and save his life. The family's financial situation, coupled with the heir himself, has made the family business prosperous.
After that, things are more bloody, making Gu Wuji feel that it is really good for him to look at other people's past gossip like this.
In fact, the heir has a green plum who really loves, so he is very indifferent to his wife after marriage, and there is a faint tendency to rekindle his old love with the green plum. The green plum is even pregnant to provoke the other party. And this wife was a strong woman, and she committed suicide out of anger. It is said that the death was very miserable, leaving a psychological shadow on the people in the old house.
Of course, the news at the time was suppressed, but as long as you really wanted to investigate, you could find it, not to mention that Xia Yangshuo himself belonged to this family.
After that, rumors of haunting appeared in the old house, and the green plum died mysteriously on the night she married. Since then, I don't know whether it was because of guilt or fear, that the old man has never remarried, and he has not left any descendants who can inherit the family.
And now it seems that he finally can't bear this, so he held this banquet, it seems that he wants to make this old house calm again when he leaves.
Gu Wuji shook his head and said in a low voice, "This is also a bit immoral. At first, he relied on others to revive his family business, and then he even cheated."
People with two boats like this have always looked down on Gu Wuji the most. Although he said that he accidentally met two ghosts in the Shura field... but Gu Wuji can honestly say that he doesn't mean anything to everyone.
"Yeah." Xia Yangshuo seemed a little embarrassed. After all, this was his family's business. "The old man and the others looked down on him at first, which caused the tragedy like this. Master Gu, do you have a solution?"
"You have to actually go and see it to find out." Gu Wuji said.
It's impossible for the Xia family to have not found someone to exorcise or do something for so many years, but the female ghost is still staying well, and it can be seen that this matter is not simple.
Of course, Gu Wuji was actually trying to persuade this poor woman not to hang herself on a tree all the time when she died, but to pursue her new life, such as starting a new relationship or something.
Xia Yangshuo didn't know Gu Wuji's thoughts at all, and he said worriedly, "Last time there was such a big incident in the bar, I suspect it has something to do with this banquet, and I don't know what the situation will be."
"If it really happens, there is nothing we can do, even if we are unlucky, we just need to find a way to escape." Gu Wuji is very open to this kind of thing.
"That's right, with Master Gu here, I can rest assured." Xia Yangshuo made up his mind to make good use of the spell that Gu Wuji gave earlier this time.
While they were talking, the two had already arrived at the Xia family's ancestral home.
This is a luxurious mansion built on the hillside. At this time, it is already night and it is still brilliant. There are luxury cars parked around, and servants receive guests in it.
When Xia Yangshuo got out of the car, a servant came up immediately and led them into the banquet scene.
If you don't know the situation, you can't see what the purpose of this banquet is, after all, it looks too normal. There were even invited celebrities from all walks of life and some stars to support the scene.
It made Gu Wuji more and more glad that he was Yi Rong here, otherwise the atmosphere would be too subtle.
After entering the arena, Xia Yangshuo immediately attracted the attention of many people. While greeting him, they also began to wonder who the woman beside him who looked good but had a very ordinary appearance.
Could it be that Xia Yangshuo has such a taste? After all, even if he had any scandals in the past, he never came out and said it. As for bringing a female companion at the banquet, it was even rarer.
Everyone's gossip was picked up for a while.
Xia Yangshuo immediately opened his mouth to explain, what a joke, how could he have the right to have a partner with Master Gu, it would be bad if Master Gu was displeased because of this.
But at this time, several other cousins of the Xia family who had not dealt with him in the past came over.
The surrounding onlookers suddenly entered a state of nothing to do with themselves. After all, they all knew that these people would quarrel when they met in the past, and they could coexist peacefully only a few times. This is also the matter of the young masters of their Xia family.
Then everyone noticed that the eyes of these cousins fell on Gu Wuji, and their hearts immediately pinched the sweat for this woman. When she met these arrogant young masters of the Xia family, she would still be able to please her, right?
The atmosphere seemed to be stiff for a while. Afterwards, these proud young masters of the Xia family instantly became very kind, no, when their eyes fell on Gu Wuji.
Everyone who eats melons is shocked. Who is this woman who doesn't look amazing! Not only can she become Xia Yangshuo's female companion, but even the other young masters of the Xia family have such a respectful attitude towards her. Could it be that she is the daughter of some wealthy family from somewhere else
…
Completely different from other people's brain comprehension, the content of these Xia family and Gu Wuji's greetings at this time is...
xiaoshuting.org
"Master Gu, you are finally here. After what happened last time, I always wanted to thank you formally. But Xia Yangshuo has been hiding your news. I don't know if this is your inspiration."
"I really don't want to thank you for fidgeting, please be sure to let me pay you!"
When these people talked, they did not forget to provoke the relationship between Gu Wuji and Xia Yangshuo. It would be better if Master Gu could turn to them, although this kind of thing is obviously impossible... They are all jealous. Where did Xia Yangshuo invite such a powerful master
As for Xia Pengyun, who had humiliated Gu Wuji several times in the bar last time, he simply didn't come this time. He felt that he had no chance if he came, and he offended Gu Wuji so badly last time, and he was immediately frightened.
Xia Yangshuo's face was ugly when he heard their words, and he actually wanted to pry at the corner. Is he Xia Yangshuo so easy to bully? He immediately sneered and said, "Master Gu is the kind of person who sees money as something outside himself..."
Gu Wuji turned to look at him.
"Of course, if you insist on making money, you can transfer it to me first, and I will naturally transfer it to Master Gu." Xia Yangshuo immediately changed his tone.
And the masters they brought with them before are all here this time. After all, although it seemed unreliable in the bar last time, they are all experienced and professional people, maybe they can come in handy.
The eyes of these masters looking at Gu Wuji are like looking at seniors. When they speak, their words are with respect. They even suspect that Gu Wuji looks young after training, but in fact his age is already amazing. cultivator.
Gu Wuji: "…"
But from what they said, after the last incident, the bar was thoroughly investigated, but nothing could be found. In the end, the bar was closed, and the boss died inexplicably in the office, and the cause of death is still unknown.
The people behind it are still quite deep, and even they can't detect it at all.
In fact, other people have already vaguely guessed, but because there is no evidence, they can't speak rashly.
Immediately, Ning Yang and Xia Wu also walked in. Among these two, Ning Yang seemed more like a young master, while Xia Wu followed behind him somewhat submissively. He didn't know how to clean up for Ning Yang these days. How much mess, it's really exhausting.
Especially a few days ago, Ning Yang was inexplicably going to see a certain star's filming site, which scared him to think that the other party still wanted unspoken male stars... But it seemed that the other party was still single-minded about that Master Gu.
When Ning Yang saw Gu Wuji, his eyes lit up and he hurried forward. It can be seen that he is still well-dressed today, and his appearance is more handsome, so that people around him can't help but look at him.
Xia Wu remembered how long Young Master Ning had been tossing around for styling today, and he had lingering fears. In fact, he felt that Master Gu didn't look like such a person at all, no, maybe he was not interested in men at all. But Ning Yang insisted on tossing him like this and there was nothing he could do.
Ning Yang and Gu Wuji chatted enthusiastically.
In fact, it should be said that it was an awkward chat. It was Ning Yang who kept talking over there and nodded occasionally without thinking.
Xia Yangshuo couldn't help feeling sympathy again.
It took a long time for the topic to finally get to the point, Ning Yang said: "Master Gu, you left in a hurry last time. As for the ghosts at the scene, I actually have something to ask..."
Gu Wuji's attitude changed immediately, "Do you have any thoughts on the people behind the scenes?"
Ning Yang watched Gu Wuji say so many words to himself, and was so moved that he said, "I'm just guessing. From the techniques and arrangements on the scene... There are not many people who can do such a thing and be so ruthless. already."
Gu Wuji felt that the Ning family was not innocent enough to be able to come out with the kind of Master Ning. He had suspected that the incident at the bar might have been done by the Ning family, but Ning Yang's attitude made him a little confused.
The next moment, there was an uproar from the door, and I saw two people walking in from the outside world.
In front is a young man who looks easy-going, but with a bit of violence in his eyebrows, and behind him is a man with a strange mask, who can only be vaguely seen as a tall man, and nothing else. Can't see it anymore.
At this moment, the servant was chasing the two of them with cold sweat on his face, "Master Xia Xi, those who enter the banquet are not allowed to wear masks, please invite this guest..."
The man called Xia Xi stopped and looked at the servant with a half-smile, "Oh, are you talking to me?"
The servant's face became paler and paler, and then he said bravely: "This is the rule of the ancestral house, please abide by it."
"Of course I know the rules of the ancestral house, but I can't help it now." Xia Xi sighed and looked at the person behind him. After all, my friend's appearance is very scary, and anyone who has seen it will be frightened. It is also for everyone's sake that I wear a mask. "
The people around looked at the person wearing the mask, and the more they looked, the more strange they felt, and they did not doubt the authenticity of Xia Xi's words.
"If you're really worried, let him take off the mask and show it to you alone, how about it?" Xia Xi's tone was still very kind, as if he had finally come up with a suitable idea, and smiled at the servant.
The servant immediately nodded in relief, and brought the masked man and Xia Xi into the room beside him.
Just when everyone thought it was over, Gu Wuji saw Xia Yangshuo shaking his head with a bit of vigilance on his face, "That servant is so naive, how can Xia Xi be such a good person to deal with? ."
Gu Wuji had also seen this Xia Xi in the materials given by Xia Yangshuo, but these materials were not very detailed, so he only knew that the branch where the other party belonged was developing very well, and he was already vaguely regarded as the Xia family. the heirs of this matter.
Seeing Gu Wuji turn his head, Xia Yangshuo immediately pulled him aside and whispered, "This Xia Xi is very strange, I suspect that there is something wrong with him."
"Although I'm not familiar with Xia Xi, I met him a few years ago. At that time, he was still a sick child, and his personality was very introverted... But when I saw him again recently, it seemed like a different person. If it was just a big temperament It’s okay to change, and even other aspects have become completely different.”
Xia Yangshuo thought that the other party might just be stimulated, but after meeting Gu Wuji, he became more and more aware of what was wrong with the other party.
"In addition to other aspects, his personality is also very strange. He seems to be easy to get along with, but in fact it is uncertain." Xia Yangshuo shook his head, "Even those who were close to him now dare not approach him any more. "
Gu Wuji nodded. In fact, he felt a little weird from Xia Xi before, but considering that this mansion was already haunted, he didn't think too much about it.
But maybe it's really because the other party's temperament has changed dramatically because of any stimulation.
Ning Yang, who was next to him, saw that Xia Yangshuo could be so close to Gu Wuji, how it was not pleasing to the eye, and immediately said: "Master Gu, those who wear masks are the people of the Bai family. Of course, I think you must know this kind of thing. of."
Gu Wuji: "..." He doesn't know! How could he know!
Everyone else showed a clear look, with fear and a bit of unease in their eyes, "This Bai family has always acted out of common sense, and the methods are extremely cruel. I don't know what they will do today."
"I heard that the Bai family trains heirs to live with ghosts for decades, and even raise ghosts in their own bodies. Only the last surviving person can become the heir, and the dead have become their Bai family. The driven ghosts..."
"It's so terrifying, I didn't expect such a family to exist in this age."
In fact, everyone almost thinks that the last thing was done by the Bai family, but the Bai family is not easy to deal with, and although the reputation spread is not very good, in fact, they have never been caught to do too much harm to the world. things that no one else can say.
Like the matter of the Ning family tossing the ghosts secretly before, in fact, only some people in the family know about it.
It didn't take long for the servant to come out with Xia Xi and the masked Bai family safe and sound. When he spoke to the Bai family, his face was apologetic, "I'm so sorry for offending you before, I knew you..."
The Bai family just shook their heads, it seemed inconvenient to speak.
Xia Xi said with a smile, "It's okay, he won't mind this kind of thing."
The servant left gratefully.
Others were a little surprised to see that this servant came out without incident, but considering that this is the ancestral home of the Xia family, it is estimated that Xia Xi did not dare to do anything, and felt a little disappointed.
Only Gu Wuji felt something strange about the servant, so he couldn't help but look at the other party a few more times, but if he looked closely, he couldn't see anything.
And the masked Bai family also seemed to have noticed something, turned their heads and glanced at Gu Wuji, but his sight disappeared so quickly that almost no one noticed.
By this time, everyone was almost there, the hall was very lively, and everyone was chatting and communicating.
On the second floor, there were two figures standing in a hidden place, looking at the people downstairs coldly, with mocking expressions on their faces.
"Are we really going to do this? Isn't this too risky..." One person said nervously.
"Of course, is it really possible to hand over the wealth of the Xia family to these little bastards? We have worked hard for the Xia family for so many years, and this property should be ours!"
"But if there are ghosts in the ancestral house, wouldn't we be like this..."
"How is it possible, the old man is just a bad man and he is only hallucinating when he is old and not awake. The woman has been dead for decades, and the body is turned into ashes. What else can be done? It's a charlatan."
"That's right, where there are ghosts in the world, I'm also scaring myself."
"In short, everything is going according to plan, and you have to act fast, don't let people find out, while they are all paying attention to that female ghost."
"Yes."
…
…
While the others were chatting, Gu Wuji secretly began to look at the interior of the building.
After all, it is a building of some years, just like the Cheng family, it has a simple and heavy atmosphere, and the surrounding furniture is very stylish. At first glance, it is a family with deep roots.
On the wall in the center of the hall is a huge oil painting depicting a man and a woman. The man looked somewhat similar to Xia Yangshuo, while the woman was a beauty.
According to the information provided by Xia Yangshuo, the woman in the oil painting is the original wife of the old man who died. It is said that the ancestral house was haunted after her death. Here, it was barely suppressed.
Gu Wuji: "..." This expert is really an ordinary expert, is there any problem
I always felt that there might be a hole in the matter. After all, the master hired by the Cheng family had already made such a big deal.
What's more, the matter of the Xia family seems to be related to the portrait, since Gu Wuji has experienced the two copies of the world in the previous paintings, he has already started to paint.
After taking a few more glances, Gu Wuji seemed to see a sneer on the face of the woman in the portrait, but after a closer look, it turned into a gentle color.
Gu Wuji thought, "Is that true..."
He made up his mind that if he wants to solve it, he will directly summon the ghost of this lady, and then influence the other party to pursue a new life, but it shouldn't be easy to convince him to succeed.
Others were shocked when they saw Master Gu's solemn expression. The last time it was so terrifying in the bar, Master Gu always looked calm, but now his expression is so dignified. Could it be that the Specters here are so powerful
Everyone immediately became nervous, and Xia Yangshuo squeezed the spell Gu Wuji gave him, and the whole person became suspicious, for fear of another accident.
At this time, the most important person in this banquet finally appeared.
The wheelchair was pushed out by a middle-aged woman. An old man who looked very old but in good spirits was sitting on the wheelchair. There were many people around, apparently to rescue the old man in time in case of any accident.
The arena suddenly fell silent. Other unrelated people stepped back one after another, and those who stayed at the forefront were those who might become the heirs of the Xia family branch.
"I think everyone has understood the purpose of coming here." The old man Xia said, "The person who can fulfill my request is the heir of the entire Xia family. Everyone present will be witnesses."
Other passersby talked a lot. Because of the confidentiality of this matter to outsiders, they didn't know what the Xia family was doing, and they were all curious.
Everyone was extremely excited. Even though they had a lot of wealth now, they were still far from the main line of the Xia family. This was an opportunity to reach the sky in one step.
"However, all I want you to do is to find her, not to hurt her." Mr. Xia seemed to speak with a bit of melancholy, "I just want to see her."
Everyone was immediately dumbfounded.
They all knew what happened back then. Now, when they heard what Mr. Xia said, they made up more stories about the relationship between the rich and powerful. This matter is far more complicated than they thought.
But more important than this kind of dog blood story...
At first, what they thought was just to come here to exorcise the ghost or simply drive away the ghost, but the request of the old man Xia was to bring the ghost to him intact
The difficulty is soaring. If it is said that the masters of ordinary ghost exorcism are very experienced, but it is too difficult to restrain a ghost without injury... It is better to say that they may have their own lives. How can they have any ability? Go and restrain that ghost!
Gu Wuji was also shocked.
Are things so simple
