The old man knew that his words were wrong, so he coughed dryly to cover up his embarrassment, and said in a deep voice: "Since the patriarch invited you, then come with me!"
When he turned around, there was a sneer on the old man's lips, and there was a sinister look in his eyes.
He led the five people out of the main courtyard and came to a side courtyard next to the main courtyard. Compared to the main courtyard, the side courtyard looked very desolate, as if it had not been lived in for a long time and no one had taken care of it. Fallen leaves were piled up everywhere. , there were piles of rocks on the ground, and there was even a stench that hit everyone's nostrils.
This stench was obviously that of rotting corpses, and it was nauseating.
Zhu Yan frowned and said, "Does the patriarch of your dignified Gongliang clan live in a place like this?"
The old man did not look back, with a sinister sneer on his face: "What's wrong with a place like this? You will soon know the beauty of this place."
Obviously, the old man was digging a hole for them, but he didn't know if the hole he dug was big enough and exciting enough.
The old man came to the door of the main hall and turned to everyone: "Everyone, please wait for a moment. I will go and report it right away."
He pushed open the hall door casually, stepped in sideways, and quickly closed the door again mysteriously.
"There must be some fraud in this ghost place!" Jiang Wuyou looked around.
Wen Rentuo nodded: "There is indeed something wrong, let's take a look first and then talk!"
Xia Yuanqiu looked around and found that there was a thick pillar on the left and right of where they were standing. Chains were tied to the pillar. The wrist-thick iron chain hung down from the pillar to the ground and penetrated into the soil.
It’s the same in all four directions!
Xia Yuanqiu said: "Everyone, follow me and take a few steps back."
"What's wrong?" Zhu Yan asked, following Xia Yuanqiu obediently.
Wen Rentuo and Jiang Wuyou also walked away a few steps.
Xia Yuanqiu pointed to the stone pillar in front of them and said: "I guess there was a net underneath where we were standing just now. As long as someone pulls the mechanism, the net will pull us into it."
As soon as Xia Yuanqiu finished speaking, there was a sudden burst of dust in front of his eyes. Where they had been standing before, as Xia Yuanqiu expected, a net appeared, made of iron chains.
Yuan Jun frowned and waved his hand, and a strong stream of air surged out from his sleeves, sweeping away the flying dust in front of his eyes.
He has always loved to be clean, and hates it when he looks gray and dusty.
The door opened, and the old man in green clothes came out. He took a mouthful of ashes and choked with tears.
Seeing that everyone had not fallen into his so-called legal net, he gritted his teeth and said angrily: "You may be lucky once, but you may not be lucky twice." After saying this, he took out a small black ball from his arms and put it into the small ball. The ball hit the ground in front of him hard.
A burst of thick smoke came out when the ball hit the ground, and the smell spread quickly.
Zhu Yan covered his mouth and nose and asked Xia Yuanqiu: "Poisonous?"
Xia Yuanqiu shook his head: "It's not poisonous. It should be a scent used to wake up some sleeping substance."
Wenrentuo was used to seeing people. As soon as he smelled this strange fragrance, he immediately knew what was going on. He couldn't help frowning and said: "I didn't expect that the formerly famous and well-known family has now become so vile and dishonest. Inhumane!”
Hearing what Rentuo meant, did he know something
Xia Yuanqiu hurriedly asked: "Senior, what is this fragrance used for?"
Wen Rentuo said: "This is the corpse awakening incense, an evil thing used to control dead corpses. I never expected that this kind of thing would appear in the Gongliang clan."
