"This incident happened two weeks ago," Hu Yuanwai sighed, and began to tell: "Two weeks ago at night, I suddenly heard a woman singing in my sleep.
I didn't pay much attention at first, until early the next morning, the captain of the house guard died suddenly.
The appearance of death was particularly ferocious. He seemed to have encountered something very terrifying, and he seemed to be scared to death.
Since then, every night in our Hu family, a woman's singing will be heard.
However, no matter how I searched with people, I couldn't find where the singing sound came from.
Every morning, someone in the mansion will die, even if I gather everyone together and everyone stays up all night.
There will still be people missing and dying the next day. Up to now, nearly 20 people have died in our Hu family.
Many servants resigned and left, and many people said that I was cursed. "
"There are no ghosts in this world, it must be caused by some villains," Wang Tao said disdainfully, "Don't worry about members of Hu, I will personally patrol Hu's mansion tonight and promise to catch the murderer."
"Okay, those Tianjiao be careful, if you need anything, just ask," Hu Yuanwai said hastily.
"Gather all the rest of the mansion tonight, and no one is allowed to leave. I want to see who is causing the trouble," Wang Tao said sharply.
"No problem, then I'll leave it to the geniuses," Hu Yuanwai nodded.
Seeing Wang Tao's arrogant promise, Xu Zimo didn't say a word, he just smiled faintly.
It doesn't matter to him whether the sect's mission is completed or not, and he came here just to take something away.
He even wished that all these people would die. The more that thing devoured, the stronger it would be, and the greater its effect on Xu Zimo in the future.
Several people were chatting and laughing happily, and suddenly saw a little girl running in from outside.
"Daddy, are there any guests at home?" The little girl had two pigtails, her voice was childish, and she looked only four or five years old.
"Ying'er, come to Dad." Hu Yuanwai seemed to love his daughter very much, and quickly hugged the little guy in his arms, and introduced to everyone: "This is my daughter, Hu Yingying, who had a serious illness some time ago. , Fortunately, this curse did not strike my daughter."
After a few people finished their meal, the sky gradually darkened, and the drizzle seemed to be getting heavier and heavier.
Raindrops began to fall drop by drop along the eaves, and the whole Hu family was shrouded in a thin layer of mist.
Then Hu Yuanwai called all the servants in the mansion to the side hall, but in fact there were not many people left in the mansion.
As the servants died and left, there were actually less than twenty people in the entire Hu Mansion.
"We are responsible for patrolling the east courtyard, how about you patrolling the west courtyard?" Wang Tao looked at Xu Zimo and the others and asked.
"Boy, do you still want to be beaten up? It's not your turn to tell me what to do," Xiao Guizi said while looking at the other party.
Then he turned his gaze to Xu Zimo, waiting for Xu Zimo's order.
"Go and patrol, I'll stay in the hall to protect the people outside the barbarians," Xu Zimo stretched his waist and said in a dull voice.
"Okay," Wang Tao didn't dare to say anything, so he left with the people from the Holy Sun Sect.
"Brother, let's go patrol the west courtyard," Xiao Guizi said from the side.
Xu Zimo looked up, the rain in the sky seemed to be getting heavier and heavier, and the darkness of the sky gave people a particularly weird feeling.
"What is there to patrol, go back and rest early," Xu Zimo said indifferently, and then went to the side hall.
Xiao Guizi and Lin Ruhu were left with bewildered faces.
... ...
Ren Pingsheng hurried home all the way, and after taking the elixir given by Xu Zimo, his injuries were mostly healed.
Now his mind is full of the inheritance of his ancestor Tunri the Great.
Finally, when the sky was getting dark, he also rushed to the ancestral hall of his Ren family.
Since their Ren family fell down, few people came to the ancestral hall anymore.
He opened the small wooden door that had been eroded by time, the lights in the ancestral hall were dim, and the air inside was stuffy.
Right in front of him is the statue of his ancestor Tunri, covered with dust and cobwebs.
This statue was carved by later generations based on the portraits of the ancestors, but no matter how skilled craftsmen they hired at that time, they could not restore the appearance of the ancestors 100%.
In the end, later generations only carved a statue of the back.
Ren Pingsheng walked in front of the statue, knelt down and kowtowed three times, and then bowed three more times.
After arriving in front of the statue, Ren Pingsheng moved the statue away little by little, and then Ren Pingsheng searched on the altar and found a dark brick that could be moved.
He pushed the brick aside, revealing a dark groove, the shape of which was exactly the same as that of a flute.
Ren Pingsheng's breathing became heavier, his mind went blank, and he put the flute into the dark groove with trembling hands.
Afterwards, the entire ancestral hall began to vibrate, endless spiritual energy began to condense above the ancestral hall, and an extremely deep vortex appeared in front of Ren Pingsheng.
The moment the vortex appeared, the space collapsed, and countless air was squeezed and exploded, turning into air arrows scattered around.
Ren Pingsheng looked at the scene in front of him, his heart was filled with excitement, he muttered to himself: "Yue Buli, you wait, when I return, I will crush your Heavenly Sword Sect."
Ren Pingsheng walked into the vortex with a surge of emotion, and then the vortex closed, and the surroundings returned to normal, as if nothing had happened.
...
At this time in the Zhenwu Sacred Sect, Baili Xiao was sitting in a white lotus on top of the Miaoliu Peak where the Sixth Elder lived.
This white lotus was inherited from Empress Hongtian, Bailixiao's face was indifferent, and a lock of hair fluttered in the breeze.
There is spiritual energy condensed on the white lotus, nourishing her body all the time, and the white mist is floating around her, she is like a fairy who descended from the sky.
The white clothes fluttered, the skin was better than snow, and the lips and teeth were bright, as if looking at her was a blasphemy.
Long time no see, she seems to have more and more fairy spirit.
All of a sudden, with a "bang", the vein door of the mysterious bone in Bailixiao's right hand was opened, and she broke through to the pulse condensing state, and boundless spiritual energy washed her body.
She stood up slowly and walked out from the white lotus, taking lotus steps, while the two maids beside her had already guarded her for a long time.
These two maids are exactly the two twins Xu Zimo met during the freshman trial, Xue Qianxue and Xue Mengmeng.
"Sister Xiao, you have broken through the Pulse Condensation Realm," Xue Mengmeng asked in surprise, blinking her lovely big eyes.
"Just broke through, you guys have to work hard," Baili Xiao smiled and said softly.
