Chapter 47 Oh no! It's coming for me!!
Chapter 47 Oh no! It's coming for me!!
Something strange has happened?
Lu Yuan was taken aback at first, then said somewhat strangely:
"What's wrong?"
Aunt Qin waved her hand lightly, seemingly troubled by the messy rumors.
"There are a lot of them, all sorts of random things, they all came out during this period."
"First, the big butcher shop in the west of the city reported it to the authorities."
"They say that overnight, all the fresh pork and mutton in the warehouse were covered with a strange grayish-white frost that couldn't be wiped off no matter how hard you tried."
She paused, lowering her voice slightly.
"The meat smelled terrible, even worse than rotten meat."
"What's even stranger is that all the workers who went into the warehouse developed a high fever that day and started talking nonsense."
A butcher shop?
Lu Yuan frowned in thought, but remained silent.
Aunt Qin pursed her full, red lips and said as she reminisced:
"Some small business owners say they can hear a series of knocks on the door in the middle of the night, like people are queuing up outside."
"The knocking on the door was accompanied by the clattering of abacus beads."
"The next day, these merchants either had errors in their accounts or customers came to return goods."
"Or the employees might fall and get injured; in short, nothing goes smoothly."
Listening to these descriptions, Lu Yuan fell into deep thought.
These things all sound like they're inextricably linked to the word "luck".
Aunt Qin looked at Lu Yuan, her charming eyes now showing a hint of seriousness.
"Many of these strange things have happened in the city, and they all started to erupt around the time Zhao Qiao'er returned."
"Although on the surface it has nothing to do with her, but... this is just too much of a coincidence."
There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.
Lu Yuan deeply agreed with Aunt Qin's words, and he looked up and asked:
"Didn't Baiyun Temple send a Taoist priest to check on it?"
Aunt Qin nodded immediately, her voice soft yet clear.
"Of course I looked for it."
"But these things only happened recently, and the Taoist priests at Baiyun Temple are investigating, but..."
She shook her head.
"I haven't heard anything about what they found out."
Lu Yuan fell silent again.
that……
Is that related to Aunt Qiao'er's matter?
At present, it's really hard to tell.
Furthermore, these strange things happened so suddenly that if it wasn't a coincidence, then someone must be up to something behind the scenes.
But judging from these two things, it shouldn't be the work of a fortune teller, right?
It's like something a fortune teller would do...
The Master of Destiny is in charge of observing and fine-tuning one's fate and destiny.
What is all this nonsense?!
As Lu Yuan's thoughts were in complete disarray, a biting night wind swept by, and the piercing chill brought him back to his senses.
He turned around and saw Aunt Qin's face was red from the cold wind, and she was rubbing her hands while breathing out white breath.
Lu Yuan then noticed that she was dressed far too scantily.
He was only wearing a gray cloak that barely covered his hips.
Her upper body looked warm, but her plump, beautiful legs, wrapped in glossy black stockings, were completely exposed to the cold wind.
Especially those open-toe high heels, they were clearly a summer style.
"hiss!"
Lu Yuan felt cold just looking at her.
"Auntie, go back now. Wear more layers next time you go out!"
"In the dead of winter, don't they know it's cold or warm?"
Aunt Qin, instead of appreciating his gesture, gave him a charming sidelong glance, her voice full of coquettish reproach.
"It's all because of you, you little rascal."
"Hmph, he doesn't even know how to praise his aunt."
"I dressed up especially for you; my legs are freezing!"
These words left Lu Yuan completely bewildered.
"What does this have to do with me?"
Song Meiqin immediately stamped her foot, her beautiful flesh trembling slightly, and said coquettishly:
"Of course it's because of you!"
"You little rascal, you love seeing your auntie dressed like this!"
"Back in the summer, whenever Auntie dressed like this, your eyes would be glued to my legs, you couldn't take them off!"
Lu Yuan: "..."
The embarrassment of being caught red-handed left Lu Yuan speechless.
Good heavens!
I thought I had hidden it well!
So this beautiful auntie knows exactly what's going on!
But Lu Yuan felt that he couldn't be blamed for this.
Who could resist taking a second look at Aunt Qin's beautiful, white skin?
Even a mature woman as stunning as Aunt Qin would grow taller if a eunuch came along!
Lu Yuan was about to say something, but suddenly sensed something was wrong, and immediately raised an eyebrow and said:
"Nonsense!"
"You had no idea I was here today!"
Seeing his expression, Aunt Qin immediately revealed a sly smile like a little fox, her voice soft and charming.
"How come Auntie didn't know?"
"We'll be arriving at the Zhao family's house almost simultaneously!"
"As soon as my aunt's car turned into this street, she saw you talking to Wang Fu at the door."
She proudly raised her chin.
"As soon as your aunt saw you, she went back and changed into this outfit."
"Why would Auntie go out in the dead of winter wearing that whole outfit?!"
After saying that, Aunt Qin gently tugged at the glossy black stockings on her plump thigh with her jade-like hand, which was painted with a bewitching purple nail polish, and then suddenly let go.
"Snapped!"
With a soft click, the black stockings snapped back taut, making the beautiful flesh of her thighs tremble.
"Is Auntie sexy?"
Aunt Qin squinted, smiling as she looked at Lu Yuan, her breath sweet as orchids.
Lu Yuan: "???"
Seeing that Lu Yuan remained silent, Aunt Qin persisted, moving closer and speaking with a reluctant yet coquettish tone:
"Go ahead and tell me~"
"What can't we talk about?"
The old man once said that one should be honest.
Lu Yuan met Song Meiqin's expectant gaze, his eyes sincere, and nodded heavily.
"Slutty!"
Upon hearing those two words, Song Meiqin was not annoyed at all; instead, she burst into laughter.
She leaned close to Lu Yuan's ear and whispered in a voice only the two of them could hear:
"Being sexy is just right."
"This outfit is an imported item that I specially bought this autumn when my brother and I went to Lushunkou."
"I bought it so you, my little one, could wear it!"
At this point, Aunt Qin's tone became slightly resentful.
"And yet, you just waited and waited, but you never came."
"Now Auntie's new clothes are all out of season!"
Lu Yuan couldn't help but curl his lip and say:
"I'll wear it next year; it won't break if I just leave it."
Aunt Qin, however, refused, her voice sickeningly sweet.
"What are we going to do next year?"
"Whenever you come to my house, I'll wear this for you every day."
"My aunt's family has even more outrageous stuff. Lushunkou is full of Western gadgets..."
A blush rose to her stunning face, and her voice lowered.
"Those Western women are shameless; they only have one string for their underwear!"
Lu Yuan: "..."
If we keep talking about this, something bad might happen.
He quickly stopped.
"Alright, alright, you're standing at the main gate, aren't you cold?"
"You should go back now, I have important business to attend to!"
Upon hearing about serious matters and thinking of the sickly Zhao Qiao'er in the bedroom, Aunt Qin stopped her nonsense.
She lightly touched her delicate chin and said seriously:
"Then be careful in everything you do. Auntie will send someone to let you know if there are any new updates from the security team."
"When I get back, I'll have my brother send a team of men to guard outside the Zhao residence."
Lu Yuan nodded without saying anything, but in his heart he was just wondering if it was Squad Leader Awei who had come.
Then, under Lu Yuan's watchful gaze, Aunt Qin swayed her large, seductive buttocks as she boarded the carriage.
Lu Yuan turned and went back to the Zhao residence, his relaxed expression instantly vanishing.
The strange occurrences in the city are no accident.
Lu Yuan didn't go back to his room to eat; instead, he called Xu Erxiao and Wang Chengan over.
"No more waiting, let's investigate now!"
The three men, armed with compasses, Bagua mirrors, and other magical implements, conducted a thorough search of the vast Zhao mansion, from the front yard to the back.
Night was falling, around 7 p.m.
After working for more than two hours, Lu Yuan and his two companions had finished searching the entire Zhao mansion.
The result was shocking.
Besides the "illness caused by illness" in Zhao Qiao'er's room.
Several insidious and malicious filthy items were also found under the bed boards in the servants' quarters, at the bottom of the water tank in the kitchen, and even in the crevices of the artificial hill in the garden.
As for who did it...
Being able to freely enter and exit the backyard, and even tamper with the beams of Aunt Qiao'er's bedroom, means the target area is already very small.
Soon, all the maids in the backyard of the Zhao residence were taken away by Wang Fu and interrogated overnight.
Lu Yuan no longer cared about these trivial matters.
He only cares about two things now.
One of them is the backlash from the broken magic that will begin at midnight.
Another strange thing... is the series of strange events that happened in Fengtian City really related to the Duanming Wang family?
If it relates to...
So what exactly is the Wang family, who are known for their ruthless methods, up to?
……
The Zhao residence, backyard, main house.
Lu Yuan sat at the table, holding a spoon in one hand, mechanically shoveling food into his mouth.
With his other hand, he quickly flipped through the yellowed handwritten copy the old man had given him.
His eyes flashed like lightning as he scanned all the records about the "Death-Severing Royal Family" at a glance.
Aunt Qiao'er was tormented by the talisman for seven days, and her body was extremely weak.
Lu Yuan personally fed her the porridge, and only after she fell into a deep sleep did he have a chance to sit down.
All the maids in the mansion were taken away for questioning, so he had to do all the serving work himself.
When the rice in the bowl was almost gone, Lu Yuan's hand holding the spoon suddenly froze in mid-air.
His gaze was fixed on a line of text on the page.
Ok?
The Book of Evil Spirits!
The Wang family, known for their life-severing magic weapons!
The book made of human skin records information about all those cursed to death and can nurture their remaining malevolent energy...
If necessary, all the evil energy in the "Book of Evil Spirits" can be released!
Wait……
Wait……
The two things Aunt Qin just mentioned...
Could it be luck...?
Rather... the Wang family, known for their ability to kill, is raising malevolent spirits?!
Why did they suddenly start raising evil spirits these days after Aunt Qiao'er came back?
What is the purpose of raising evil spirits...?
Lu Yuan pondered...
Soon, Lu Yuan's pupils contracted sharply.
broken! !
It's because of myself!!
The Wang family, known for their cruelty and ruthlessness, are after me!
