Discovered!
The moment their eyes met, Ning Buwen knew that he couldn't go on like this, he had to turn from being passive to active.
Ning Buwen jumped down from the beam subconsciously, and pounced towards Xing Fangfang the next second after she screamed.
Xing Fangfang wanted to dodge, but she was no match for Ning Buwen who moved in an instant. In just one breath, she was restrained.
Xing Fangfang's skin is still warm, so she is definitely alive.
Ning Buwen felt a little relieved. It would be scary if he strangled her neck and found that she was already dead.
"Shh." Ning Buwen placed his left hand on Xing Fangfang's neck and covered her mouth with his other hand.
Ning Buwen lowered his voice and said, "If you want to live, don't speak."
Xing Fangfang was still struggling violently, and even bit Ning Buyen directly.
He bit me so hard that I even bled.
I wish Shin-chan could bite with this much strength.
Ning Buwen suddenly had such a thought in his mind. Who knows where that stupid dog ran off to. It would be interesting if it really became a dog meat hotpot.
Hiss, it hurts.
Oh my god, she really is not afraid of death.
Ning Buwen quickly pulled his hand away, but Xing Fangfang surprisingly did not scream. Instead, she shouted to the empty space behind her, "Kill him."
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, Ning Buwen felt the air suddenly become heavy.
There is really something here.
Ning Buwen felt his body suddenly go cold. This strange and cold feeling was exactly the same as when he was possessed by Zhao Shutong.
We can't fight to the end.
Ning Bu Wen patted his chest lightly, and the heat emitted from the talisman on his chest temporarily suppressed the eerie feeling.
He wanted to run, but the strange Buddha statue appeared in front of the door at some point and forced Ning Buwen to retreat.
The expression on the Buddha's face seemed to have undergone a subtle change, but it was too dark at night, and having been bewitched before, he neither asked nor dared to look at it any further.
Oh no.
There is the invisible monster behind and the Buddha statue in front, and it depends on which way of death is easier.
If you don't do it, you won't die.
"Miss Xing, I didn't expect you to worship evil gods and raise ghosts at home." At this tense moment, Ning Buwen pretended to be unfathomable. "It's your family's ancestor worship day soon. I wonder if these things you raise will be discovered when the time comes, and whether they will be suppressed by your family's Feng Shui?"
The Buddha took another step forward.
Ning Bu Wen was ready to pull out the talisman from his chest and attack at any time.
If possible, this talisman would be his only powerful attack item in this game copy, and it would be a pity to use it up now.
He doesn't even know where the Xing family's Feng Shui treasure cave is!
"Buddha, wait a minute." Xing Fangfang finally spoke, "Who are you and why are you here?"
"Why am I looking for you? Miss, don't you know?" Ning Buwen didn't answer the question. "Your Xing family's Feng Shui is so special. Not only me, but everyone in the underworld is curious. It's just that my luck is a little bad. I finally got caught by you after sneaking in."
"On the street?" Xing Fangfang gritted her teeth. "Are you here to covet my family's Feng Shui treasure cave?"
"Besides that, is there anything else in the Xing family that is worth mobilizing our forces?" Ning Bu Wen did not admit it, but he did not deny it either. "You may not be able to kill me now, but the commotion you will cause will definitely be huge. I'm telling you the truth, young lady. Not only are our gang members, but even the nearby warlords are watching you. Your Xing family has been prosperous for a hundred years and has a lot of wealth. Who wouldn't want to get a piece of the pie?"
I would rather not ask and start talking nonsense. No, it cannot be said to be nonsense.
It is now the Republic of China, with constant wars and warlords everywhere. In order to raise military funds, the warlords can do anything, and tomb robbing is nothing. With such a mysterious legend and such wealth, it would be a lie if the Xing family was not targeted by warlords.
But apparently, such nonsense is useful.
In just a few words, in Xing Fangfang's eyes, he changed from a petty thief to a powerful Taoist priest hired by a warlord.
After all, the person who is more concerned is Xing Fangfang, not Ning Buwen.
"Aliang, don't do anything yet." Xing Fangfang whispered to the things around her, "We can't kill him."
If we kill him, the next time they send us might be a fully equipped army.
Can these mysterious skills really withstand hail of bullets
"Miss, this is the right way." Ning Buwen laughed, "If you let me go today, I promise not to tell anyone about what happened here."
"Why should I believe you!"
"I can't beat you." Ning Wen said without hesitation, "To be honest, many of our Taoist magics have been lost, and your ability to control gods and ghosts is better than ours. Since we can't beat you, we won't bother you again. If you can catch me once, you can catch me twice. Rather than all perishing together, it's better to let me go, don't you think?"
Xing Fangfang looked a little hesitant.
"Miss, you have to think quickly." Ning Buwen's voice was a little urgent, "Wait a little longer, my companions will find out something is wrong and come in to find me."
Xing Fangfang gritted her teeth slightly, "Buddha, let him go, I will give you a new offering tomorrow."
"The young lady is a smart person." Ning Buwen felt relieved. "Please, Buddha, please make way."
The Buddha statue moved away unwillingly.
"It's getting late and the dew is heavy. I won't disturb you." Ning Bu Wen walked out of the room, bowed slightly, and put on airs.
He climbed over the wall and burned all the restraints on his body. After changing back into a waiter, Ning Buwen sneaked back.
When he returned to the room, Ning Buwen found that his back was wet with cold sweat.
"Thanks to this talisman." Ning Buwen exhaled deeply, "You still can't commit suicide so easily. There is no way to fight against something that you can't see at all."
So, can't game copies be scientific? It's really annoying to deal with all these weird things.
Xing Fangfang in the room suddenly came to her senses, "He's lying to me!"
If she was really someone sent by the warlord, the first person to be investigated could not be her. There are so many people in the Xing family, and she is not noticeable at all. Moreover, the other party did not even notice Aliang's existence at first, which proves that he is definitely not a Taoist as he claimed.
At this moment, a piece of cloth slowly floated in the air.
"Aliang, what is this?" Xing Fangfang asked curiously, holding the cloth in her hand.
"Hmm? You said this fell off that person?" Xing Fangfang touched the piece of cloth carefully. "It looks like it must have been caught by something. The material is somewhat similar to what our servants wear. Before I married you, I helped to manage the household for a few days. I know the materials of the servants' clothes very well."
Xing Fangfang said as she clutched the cloth, "He must be in our house. Don't worry, Aliang. I will find him and will never let even a single drop of your existence be revealed!"
I slept soundly even though I didn't want to ask.
"Are you still sleeping?" Mother-in-law pushed the door open.
"Yes, it's grandma." Ning Buwen saw grandma and quickly got up and put on his clothes. "Is it because I delayed the cleaning time? I'll get up right away. I was a little nervous yesterday and didn't fall asleep until late at night. I'm really sorry."
"It's okay, you don't have to clean today." Mother-in-law said casually.
"Hey, why?" Ning Buwen was stunned for a moment, "I didn't finish cleaning the yard yesterday."
"The eldest lady's room was robbed yesterday. Several precious dowries collected by the young lady were stolen. One of them was a gift from her son-in-law in the past. It was very meaningful." The mother-in-law said angrily, "Did you hear any noise last night?"
"No." Ning Buwen thought about it and shook his head, "Is the young lady very sad now? Why don't we report it to the police?"
"It's a thief in the family, why report it to the authorities?" The mother-in-law stopped her. "The police only take money and can't do anything else. Besides, if the news gets out, it will affect the young lady's reputation. A widow has enough gossip to begin with."
"Yeah, that's right." Ning Bu Wen said dejectedly.
"My tone was a little harsh just now." The mother-in-law seemed a little embarrassed and stepped forward to hold Ning Buwen's hand. "I am also concerned about the young lady. Don't say anything when you go out, okay?"
"Don't worry, mother-in-law, I know." Ning Buwen nodded.
"Your hands are calloused." Grandma let go of Ning Buwen's hand and said, "I have some good ointments. I'll bring them to you later."
"Thank you, mother-in-law." Ning Buwen smiled more sincerely, "Actually, it's okay if you don't use it. People in the country live a rough life."
"I'll get it for you right away." Mother-in-law turned and walked out.
Ning Buwen looked at his left hand and breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that Xing Fangfang has begun to doubt him. That's right, after all, she is new here.
However, the piece of cloth that I threw away should be able to help me fish in troubled waters.
Ning Buwen knew last night that he would be inspected, so he spent most of the night disguising the bitten back of his hand.
In fact, it is very simple. You just need to use a little glue to cover a thin film, and then apply some black powder. Xing Fangfang is a woman in her prime, and it is impossible for her to come and check him in person. She has to avoid suspicion. In this way, the only person who can come to check his hands is his mother-in-law.
After all, my mother-in-law is old and her eyesight is not as good as I imagined.
"You really can't make any mistakes at all." Ning Buwen muttered to himself, "It's just that an unappreciated young lady can make these things at home. I wonder what those respected people are doing in private?"
On the other side, after Xing Fangfang finished talking to her father, the Xing family quickly started to clear out the people.
The cloth in Xing Fangfang's hand was indeed the clothes worn by the servants, and the number of clothes distributed to the servants every month was limited. She could tell who the cloth belonged to by simply comparing them.
Guozhu was caught at this time.
Ning Buwen also went to watch the fun.
"Master, Master, I really didn't steal this." Guo Zhu cried with snot and tears, "I was on guard last night, everyone saw it."
"Just because you didn't steal it doesn't mean you didn't let the thief in." The head of the Xing family was a middle-aged man with a serious face. Even though it was the Republic of China, he was still wearing a long gown. If his hair wasn't cut short, he would look like a typical old rich man from the Qing Dynasty.
The master of the Xing family is a conservative middle-aged man, but the concubines around him are more fashionable than each other, wearing cheongsams with high slits and wavy curls, and none of them are left behind.
Ning Buwen lowered his head silently, thinking that the old man of the Xing family was far from being as serious as he dressed up. If he didn't like his concubine's dressing like this, how could she dare to wear it like this!
"If you tell the truth, I might be able to spare your life. Otherwise, I will punish you according to the family rules." The master of the Xing family said sternly.
"Master, it really wasn't me." Guo Zhu kowtowed on the ground, "Master, I have been in the Xing family since I was a child, and I have never stolen anything. Recently, I have been busy worshiping the ancestors, and I always bring people with me wherever I go. I am rarely alone. How can I contact the people outside?"
"Master, what he said makes sense." The housekeeper said, "Maybe the little thief deliberately framed him so that he could slip away. Otherwise, the clothes made of this family's clothes are not expensive, so he could just buy another one. How could he be caught red-handed?"
"Why did that little thief frame him instead of someone else?" Although the master of the Xing family felt that what the housekeeper said made sense, he still did not let him go easily. "Anyway, he can't stay. Beat him with a few sticks and throw him out. We in the Xing family don't want such a traitorous servant."
"Why don't you thank the master?" The housekeeper said to Guo Zhu, "I just beat you with a few sticks. The master has let you go."
Guo Zhu also knew that if he continued arguing, there would be no good result, so he could only respond with grief and anger.
"You are useless too. You can't even take care of your own dowry." Master Xing couldn't help scolding his daughter. "After the ancestor worship, I will ask your mother to find a few families for you."
Xing Fangfang still looked miserable. She stood beside Master Xing with her head down, and didn't say a word even after being scolded.
"Hey, uncle, sister, why are you all here?" At this moment, another voice sounded.
When the servants heard the voice, they automatically divided into two rows and made way for the owner of the voice to come over.
Walking towards us from a distance was a young man wearing a suit, vest, hat, leather shoes and a watch.
It was Xing Tianyou, the only male in the Xing family.
Xing Tianyou looked to be in his early twenties, with a heroic look between his brows. He was a real handsome man.
The children of the Xing family are all better looking than each other. If you only look at their looks, each of them is a rare talent. No wonder people outside say that the Xing family has a good feng shui.
Xing Tianyou was followed by several young men, all of whom were about the same age as him, but they were said to be relatives of the concubines. After all, Xing Tianyou was the future master of the Xing family, and they had no children, so they naturally had to please Xing Tianyou, so all the brothers of the same age were pulled over to play with Xing Tianyou as playmates.
"What are you still doing here? Why don't you go down to work?" When the housekeeper saw Xing Tianyou coming, the master's expression eased a lot and he immediately urged the servants to leave.
Ning Bu asked nothing and had to leave with the servants.
Halfway through the walk, someone caught up with me.
Ning Buwen thought about it and continued walking forward as if he didn't notice anything, but slowly increased his speed.
"Wait a minute." The person behind shouted when he saw that he was about to catch up.
Ning Buwen stopped only then.
"Hello, are you calling me?" Ning Buwen turned around and saw one of the group of young people who had followed Xing Tianyou before standing behind him.
"Ahem, it's me, Liang Fei." The man immediately revealed his identity. "I've been observing you for a few days. Are you going to ignore me or ask me?"
Liang Fei
Ning Bu Wen breathed a sigh of relief and walked up slowly. "I'm Ning Bu Wen. How did you find me?"
Liang Fei smiled a little, "We all came here at the same time, so the newcomers to the Xing family these days are very likely my companions. You pretended to be so similar that I didn't recognize you at first. If that Guozhu hadn't been beaten with a stick and driven out, I wouldn't be sure that you were my companion."
That's right.
Ning Buwen looked around and said, "It's not convenient to talk here. Come with me."
"good."
They walked all the way to Ning Buwen's room, and only then did they feel relieved.
"What is your current identity?" Ning Bu Wen asked immediately.
He was worrying about how to deal with Xing Fangfang. Xing Fangfang would definitely not be fooled a second time after being fooled once. It was not impossible for one person to investigate, but it would definitely be slow.
Ning Buwen subconsciously didn't want to delay the matter until the ancestor worship ceremony.
Xing Fangfang was already so strange, if he really waited until the ancestor worship, things would definitely get worse. He had to clear the customs in advance before things progressed to an irreversible state, so that it would be the safest.
Liang Fei's arrival was undoubtedly a timely help.
"My current identity is the third concubine's younger brother." Liang Fei sighed, "Because Xing Tianyou is coming back, he brought me here to be his right-hand man. I have been observing Xing Tianyou for a few days, and he is definitely not a player. In this kind of plot-based dungeon, the possibility that the key character is a player can be ignored. I originally wanted to find Xing Fangfang to start with, but my identity is too embarrassing and there is no reason."
"There's something wrong with Xing Fangfang." Ning Buwen said, and then he recounted in detail what he had discovered last night.
Liang Fei also fell into deep thought.
"According to what you said, the Ah Liang that Xing Fangfang mentioned should be her husband, and the evil god she worshipped might be her helper. It is impossible for ordinary people to communicate with ghosts. For example, if we don't have props to help us, it will be difficult to see ghosts." Liang Fei analyzed, "You were right not to take action yesterday. The prop cards of the talisman type are rare, and we must use them wisely."
"What about you? How are you doing here?" Ning Bu Wen asked curiously.
"Xing Tianyou doesn't know anything, but I got some information from the third concubine." Liang Fei also exchanged the information he knew, "The third concubine said that every year, the family would invite Taoist priests from the Wuyang Temple to preside over the ancestor worship ceremony, but female family members were not allowed to participate. It is also said that the Xing family has a Feng Shui treasure cave, but no one knows where this place is except the master of the Xing family. Even she was beaten for asking one more question once."
"So mysterious?" Ning Buwen was a little surprised, "Doesn't anyone know where it is?"
"No one knows that the original wife of the Xing family master has died, and the second concubine is the one who is in charge of the family now." Liang Fei affirmed, "It is said that this position only appears during ancestor worship."
"We absolutely cannot wait until then." Ning Buwen said immediately, "Xing Fangfang alone is difficult to deal with. If the ancestor worship ceremony officially begins, I'm afraid we will be in danger."
"I think so too." Liang Fei nodded, "Also, have you noticed that some servants have started coughing recently?"
What
If you don't ask, you really don't know.
He had a very quiet time at the eldest lady's place, and no servants came over at all.
"Some people have already been quarantined." Liang Fei's face was solemn. "I'll find an excuse to investigate in the afternoon. You should keep an eye on Xing Fangfang. She is the oldest daughter in the Xing family and must know something."
