Believe It Or Not, I Already Caught You

Chapter 7: The evil spirit of the third master

Views:

In the study on the second floor, Lou Ming took the compass handed by his assistant, and carefully looked at it in his hand, frowning slightly.

"San Shao, I think we need to investigate this Chen Yu again." Lou Ming's third assistant Cheng Peng said solemnly.

Lou Ming did not speak, but still focused on observing the compass in his hand. The pure black compass is not big, the size of a palm, lying quietly in the palm of his hand, there seems to be nothing special.

"Three young masters?" Cheng Peng asked when Lou Ming hadn't spoken.

Lou Ming put the compass in his hand on the table, looked up at Cheng Peng and asked, "I remember, the old man who adopted the little girl is a half-sick, right?"

When Chen Yu appeared in the courtyard for the first time, He Qi, one of the assistants, reported Chen Yu's life experience to Lou Ming, but He Qi was not talking about half immortals but god sticks.

"Yes."

"Then... She will have a compass, which is very reasonable, right?" Lou Ming continued to ask.

"Yes, but..." Cheng Peng said with his suspicion, "After all, the compass is a metaphysical thing. Chen Yu only came back three days, and he has been here twice with the compass. Tonight even secretly buried the compass. Under the courtyard wall, she must have done this for a certain purpose."

"What's the purpose?" Lou Ming asked.

"I don't understand metaphysics, but there is a formation arranged by Master Mao in the yard, which may be related to this." Cheng Peng doubted.

"You mean... the little girl of the Chen family wants to destroy the formation?" Lou Ming looked a little surprised.

Cheng Peng nodded.

"What can we do if the formation is destroyed?" Lou Ming began to hypothesize the problem, and the result of the hypothesis was not imagined.

Thinking of the result, Lou Ming's expression suddenly began to become lonely, as if there was a hint of relief besides being lonely.

"San Shao!" Perceiving the change in Lou Ming's mood, Cheng Peng felt a little distressed. He wanted to be comforted but didn't know what to say. In the end, he could only promise again and again, "With us, we will never let anyone else. Destroy the formation in the yard."

Lou Ming realized that he had lost his temper. He quickly adjusted his mentality, and said with a slight smile to Cheng Peng: "Don't be so nervous, if the formation is broken, Master Mao will naturally come to repair it again. In fact, it's not a big deal."

"How can it be no big deal? Now that Master Mao is abroad, he won't be able to catch up for a while, and your evil spirit is extremely unstable." Cheng Peng excitedly said, "If you suddenly lose control..."

When Cheng Peng talked about losing control, his hands suddenly clenched into fists, and the muscles on his face trembled.

"Out of control..." Lou Ming said disapprovingly, "Then I will trouble you."

Cheng Peng, who was still able to control himself, heard Lou Ming's words, turned around and walked outside: "I'm going to bring Chen Yu here now."

"Stop." Lou Ming immediately called out Cheng Peng.

"The Third Young Master." Cheng Peng turned around and looked at Lou Ming stubbornly. He knew he was excited, but when he thought of the consequences of the Third Young Master's outrage, Cheng Peng couldn't control himself.

"You..." Lou Ming knew very well that everyone in this yard was more concerned about his safety than he himself.

"But..." Cheng Peng still felt that all unstable factors must be controlled in advance, even if they were suspected.

"Cheng Peng, do I stop talking now?" Lou Ming stared at Cheng Peng with a hint of coldness in his voice.

After staying with Sanshao for three years, Cheng Peng knew better than anyone that the Sanshao was not easy. Because of the evil spirit, the third master has almost no friends, he can't go to crowded places, and even his family has to take the initiative to avoid it. Simply put, the more you care about who, the more you have to stay away from whom.

After receiving the task to protect the three young masters, the first thing Cheng Peng did was to read the precautions of the task. The last item of precautions is that if the floor inscription is out of control, it needs to be cleared immediately.

When he first saw this order, as a soldier who was accustomed to obeying orders, he was not too touched. Cheng Peng is a special soldier who has killed many people. For the safety of the country, whether it is a man, a woman, an elderly or a child, he can do it for the country.

What really surprised him was that when Lou Ming saw him, he asked him straightforwardly: "Have you seen the precautions?"

Cheng Peng nodded blankly.

"Then I will trouble you when I lose control." Lou Ming said with a slight apology in his tone. As if to say again, I'm really sorry to trouble you with this kind of thing.

Cheng Peng was slightly surprised, and while admiring it, he didn't have much emotion.

It was not until half a year later that he knew that Lou Ming had added this precaution. It turned out that when Lou Ming was 18 years old, the evil spirit had lost control once. Qi Hao, the personal assistant at the time, was unwilling to hurt Lou Ming, and feared that the evil spirit would affect ordinary people after he went out, so he handcuffed himself and Lou Ming. Together, locked in the room. Although Master Mao quickly rushed over, suppressed his evil spirits, and let Lou Ming calm down, Qi Hao, who was locked in the room with him at the time to prevent Lou Ming from leaving, had already been beaten by the crazy Lou Ming. It's dying.

When he was sent to the hospital, Qi Hao's body quickly recovered thanks to the strong physical qualities of the special forces, but his spirit had completely collapsed due to the strong erosion of the evil spirit. After Qi Hao woke up, he turned into a grumpy and irrational killing machine, and was locked in a mental hospital forever.

The evil spirit in Lou Ming has existed since birth, and became stronger with age, reaching its peak when he was fifteen years old. Anyone who is unstable or weak can not appear inside Lou Ming's evil spirit. Otherwise, ordinary people with weak willpower will be affected by evil spirits, become irritable, and become mentally disordered in the long term. Ordinary people who are physically weak will become seriously ill due to the erosion of evil spirits.

Before the age of fifteen, Lou Ming never dared to stay in one place for more than two hours. After the age of fifteen, Lou Ming was trapped in this small courtyard, using the formations arranged by Master Mao to suppress the growth of evil spirits, and then passed Special method for weakening. In the three years of being in jail, the evil spirits have been controlled very well, until that time it suddenly got out of control.

Lou Ming went to the hospital to see Qi Hao after waking up, and added this to the precautions when he came back. In just half an hour, a determined special soldier became mentally ill by him. Lou Ming couldn't believe how much panic would be caused by running out after he lost control. He felt like a humanoid weapon. He doesn't want to hurt others, but he also knows that the country will not let him give up easily.

Lou Ming is the country's most cutting-edge weapons expert. Because of the weapons he designed, China's status in the world is unshakable. Because of the weapons he designed, Chinese soldiers on the battlefield can reduce casualties. To some extent, Lou Ming is the patron saint of China.

No matter how many people like Qi Hao were sacrificed, the country would keep Lou Ming. Lou Ming knew this too well, but he obviously didn't agree with it. After he came back, he talked with his father Minister Lou for a long time, but Minister Lou always disagreed. In the end, Lou Ming said directly: If there is such a thing again, if you don't kill me, then I will do it myself.

"Cheng Peng?" Lou Ming was a little upset when he saw Cheng Peng's delay in replying to him.

"I must protect your safety." Cheng Peng returned to his senses. He gritted his teeth, even if the Third Young Master hated him, he could not let anyone threaten the Third Young Master.

Lou Ming stared at Cheng Peng coldly, and Cheng Peng also looked back at Lou Ming, his face full of guilt and anxiety, but he persisted.

"Fine." Lou Ming sighed, took the mobile phone on the side, clicked on WeChat, found Master Mao's number, and started the video call.

The video was quickly connected, and an old man with a fairy style appeared on the other side of the video.

"Lou Ming, can you find me something?" Master Mao asked kindly.

"Master Mao, I didn't bother you." Lou Ming said.

"It's okay, it's just a break now, what's the matter?" Master Mao knew that Lou Ming had always been the master of the Three Treasures Palace.

Lou Ming picked up the compass on the table, showed it to Master Mao, and asked, "Master Mao, look at this."

Master Mao squinted his eyes for a moment, and said, "This is a compass. It looks like it is some years old. Where did it come from?"

Lou Ming looked at Cheng Peng and saw that he was listening with his ears erected, so he continued to ask: "Someone is buried outside the courtyard wall."

"Outside the courtyard wall?" Master Mao frowned when he heard it.

"What? Does this compass have any effect on the formation?" Lou Ming asked.

Cheng Peng was even more nervous, as long as Master Mao said that there was a slight impact on him, he could immediately rush to the Chen family and arrest him.

"That's not true. If there is a problem with the formation, I will feel it immediately." Master Mao asked after finishing speaking, "Who is buried outside the courtyard wall and in which direction?"

"A little girl, buried in the southeast corner." Lou Ming thought for a while and added, "By the way, this little girl's grandfather is a half immortal."

"That's it." Master Mao thought for a while and said, "Then this girl should have come here to steal aura."

"Stealing spiritual energy?" Lou Ming raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"The yard where you live is the place where the imperial city has the most aura, and the aura is what the celestial master needs most." Master Mao explained, "You said that girl's grandfather is a half fairy. I guess she found that your yard is full of aura. , So I want her spirit treasure to absorb some aura. But she should also be aware of the formation in the yard, so she just steals some aura that leaked from the formation outside the yard."

"In other words... what he does will not have any effect on me?" Lou Ming grasped the point.

"As long as she doesn't enter the yard, how she tosses outside will not affect the formation." Master Mao chuckled, "Besides, the formation I set up is so easy to be broken by a little girl. "

At this moment, someone on the other side of the video seemed to be calling Master Mao. Lou Ming saw it and thought about asking about it, so he said, "Master Mao, then you are busy, don't bother."

Lou Ming hung up the video, looked up at Cheng Peng and said, "You have heard it too, so don't worry."

"Even so, I can't let her come again. I still insist on telling Mayor Chen to let her take care of my daughter." Cheng Peng said.

"Cheng Peng." Lou Ming put down the phone and said earnestly, "Do you know? Mayor Chen is a very talented official. But you only need to tell this matter, even if this matter will not be to me at all. Cause any impact. Mayor Chen will soon be transferred from the imperial capital, and my father will not let him go one step further."

Cheng Peng was taken aback.

"A good person can only help a limited number of people around him, and a good official can benefit one party, even the country." Lou Ming was not talking here, he knew Cheng Peng could understand.

"I listen to the Third Young Master." Cheng Peng said after a moment of indulgence.

Lou Ming smiled slightly, and the heavy atmosphere instantly dissipated. He pushed the compass in his hand forward and said, "Put the compass back."

"You intend to..." Cheng Peng was a little incredulous.

"Didn't Master Mao say it, it has no effect." Lou Ming said, "Furthermore, if we don't ask ourselves, it can be regarded as stealing. This is not good..."

Cheng Peng hesitated for a moment, and finally accepted the compass with his fate, and was buried in it again. It was only secretly decided that in the future, Chen Yu must not be allowed one step closer to Three Less.
