The next morning, Zeng Laojin and his wife returned to Donghe Village with their two children and brought us a sad and angry news: Pipi still couldn't escape the disaster and died last night!
They went back home and everything was fine, but in the middle of the night, Pippi screamed, and everyone ran to his room and saw that the child had been killed, with a fatal wound being a stab in the chest. The window was open, and before they rushed to Pippi's room, the murderer had already fled.
Dong Xuejuan lived on the second floor, so the murderer could come and go freely. At that time, Dong Xuejuan was shocked and went crazy!
No one could bear the tragic death of her husband and son. Moreover, she had been in agony for the past two days, and the continuous blows finally made her collapse.
I sighed inwardly and lowered my head. After all, this child could not escape fate and was destined to die young. However, this was too cruel to Dong Xuejuan. And Ruyu, that damn woman, if she knew about Pipi's death, I wonder how she would react. Alas, that was better than Dong Xuejuan. Anyway, they would meet in the underworld, and she could watch her son reincarnate, but Dong Xuejuan could only accept the painful company.
Zeng Laojin could go home, but we followed them anyway. I first burned a talisman and threw it into the house. Only when I found nothing unusual did I dare to let everyone in. Zeng Laojin put the child down and burned three incense sticks in front of the shrine of the guardian god. Old Yan actually showed up in the smoke.
"All of you please go out. I want to talk to this gentleman alone." Old Yan said with a sullen face as he drove them all out.
Shen Bing and I have never told each other our names since we got here, and Old Yan also knows that I am wanted by the underworld, so he didn't mention my name either, and only addressed me as Mr., which is quite conscientious of him.
Shen Bing pouted and asked, "Should I go out too?"
Old Yan hung his face and nodded like Changbai Mountain.
Shen Bing snorted and pulled the Second King of Hell out. I knew what she meant. In the end, she still found out from me what we talked about.
I sat down on the chair, stared at Old Yan and asked, "What do you want to tell me?"
Old Yan sighed and said, "You used the thunder and fire from heaven and earth the night before last, and the underworld already knows your identity. If it weren't for me and Old Qian helping you to cover up your lie, the ghost messenger would have come to arrest you last night. So, you must leave here with your girlfriend and stay away from this place of trouble."
Damn it, you actually helped me to cover up my lie, this is really a lie. I sneered and said, "So you still treat me as a friend, so you help me, right?"
"Yes!" Old Yan nodded and continued, "I have always treated you as a friend, but this is the last piece of advice. Because this place, like Death Valley, is a thorn in the eyes of the underworld, and no one is allowed to mess around!"
Hearing him say that, I believe it a little. Whether it is the arrangement of the underworld traitor or the real dispatch of the underworld, so many famous dead ghosts are here to be the guardian gods, which shows that this piece of land is extraordinary. It should be for the old guy in the tomb, so that it can't crawl out of the tomb.
For this reason, the surrounding area is extremely poor and backward, and there is a group of Five Ghosts who have been guarding here for generations. I guess it's not just the Five Ghosts, the Bailing Sect must also have disciples stationed here, and the righteous path will not lag behind.
Seeing that I remained silent, Old Yan continued, "In fact, some people are cautious when making moves here, but with you, the water is muddied and a huge wave will be set off. If you hadn't helped to move the graves, the things that happened in the past few days wouldn't have happened. Your appearance has caused a tragedy that shouldn't have happened. If you don't leave, this will bring even greater disasters to the village!"
His words hit my sore spot again. My buddy is indeed an ominous person. Disasters will happen wherever he goes. This is really not a coincidence, because my arrival will cause fear among evil people and evil spirits, which will lead to a series of disasters.
I sighed. Grandpa Taizu advised me not to meddle in other people's business, but I didn't listen, which brought disaster to the people. Well, if I listened to him, it would be considered as following Grandpa Taizu's teachings. Let's withdraw. But no matter what the skeleton evil here is, I must find out who the traitor in the underworld is, so that I can return to the town and open a shop with peace of mind in the future.
But it would be harder to get the truth out of Old Yan, so I could only try to get the truth out of him. I touched my nose and nodded, saying, "I'll leave in a minute."
"Well, I'll go back then. This may be the last time we meet." Old Yan said and was about to disappear.
"Wait." I waved my hand at him and said to the old man with a question mark on his face, "I know who the traitor in the underworld is?"
Old Yan's face changed suddenly after hearing this, but then returned to normal, revealing a surprising smile, which made his face look both awesome and weird.
"I don't understand what you're talking about." He was actually pretending to be ignorant with me.
"You are all under the control of the genuine Long Shaohui, aren't you?" I crossed my legs and smiled at him leisurely.
He should understand what this authentic Long Shaohui means, that is, the ghost of the real Long Shaohui who died in Huangshan long ago.
Old Yan's expression immediately relaxed a lot, and he replied to me: "You guessed right, he is controlling us."
Damn, judging by his expression, I realized that my guess was wrong, but it doesn't matter, I was just testing him. Because the information I got was too little, I only knew Long Shaohui, and I couldn't think of any other big boss among this bunch of dead ghosts.
I laughed and said, "You are so honest, but he is just a small leader, and he has a boss above him. You and I know each other very well, so there is no need to hide anything."
This time, Old Yan's cheek twitched again. It seemed that I was right. Long Shaohui was not the big boss. But who the hell was he? My heart was like a pile of shit. It was a mirror.
"Now that you know that, you should beg him for mercy. One word from him can help you turn things around." Old Yan stared at me and said.
My heart was immediately shocked. What he meant was that I knew their boss. Damn it, this clue is too valuable. Although my heart was as thunderous as thunder, he appeared calm on the outside. I smiled sarcastically and said, "We have a deep hatred. Do you think he can give me a way out?"
This is pure speculation. If he didn't have a deep hatred for me, he wouldn't have forced several generations of our Xi family into a dead end. How come I can't figure out who this bastard is
"Yes, there is hatred between you, but I think he will let you go for one person's sake!" After saying this, Old Yan suddenly disappeared, leaving only a puff of cigarette floating in front of my eyes, like a cloud of fog, wrapping me in it.
He would let me go for the sake of one person. Who is this person? He must be someone I know, and he must be a relative of the traitor in the underworld, and he has also received my kindness.
Is it Zhao Chengshi? No, he died not long ago, it definitely can't be him. And this traitor in the underworld can't have been around for long, because at that time all the forces in the underworld were controlled by Master Feng, and there was no way for other forces to survive. That means that after Master Feng was sent to the realm of the underworld, this group of forces split into two factions. I vaguely caught a clue in my heart!
