I want to say a rolling word... Lao Gong is becoming more and more over the top.
With the strength of a true expert, one can indeed ignore and dismiss far too many dangers.
It's like Song Fang, who controls ghosts like Wei Youming and so many green ghosts.
If it weren't for Tang Wu being here, Song Fang's danger level is definitely not lower than that of the plague ghost. I couldn't beat him, let alone a narrow victory.
With Tang Wu's dimensional reduction-style attack against the other green ghosts, preventing them from even participating in the battle, it was precisely because of this that Song Fang didn't have enough time to carefully study Wei Youming's abilities, nor did he realize that Lao Liu's control had vulnerabilities. If given enough time, Song Fang certainly wouldn't have been dramatically seriously injured by Lao Liu, allowing me to find an opportunity to pull him out of the perilous prison.
Strength is extremely important.
The car headed into the city, and since it was just starting to get dark, there was still traffic congestion on the road. When our car reached the vicinity of Xu's house, there were still quite a few pedestrians walking along the ancient commercial street. Many shops were also open for business, making it impossible to immediately act. We could only wait continuously.
Tang Wu sat cross-legged in meditation, continually nurturing his spirit.
I repeatedly pondered the method he described - to take someone's life when you see them.
This method, while being too direct and losing critical information, ensures absolute safety. We are certain that we will not be injured by their rear tactics.
Of course, with Tang Wu here, the possibility of death is minimal.
Time slowly passed, the streets became increasingly quiet, and after almost ten o'clock at night, there were almost no pedestrians left. Most shops were closed.
Tang Wu opened his eyes and suddenly said, "Sheng Shen, you said they repeatedly invited you to their door, right?"
"Yes," I nodded.
"Mhm, then knock on the door openly and I'll follow you," Tang Wu smiled and said, "Not many people know my identity."
Lao Gong's eyes were wide open, and he licked his lips again, saying, "Alright! They have knives hidden in their smiles, and we just put our swords right in front of their faces!"
"The first wave of fighters were infiltrators in Xu's house. I don't know if it's due to some feng shui issue or a hidden ambush, but in any case, there was no one to come out and send a message." Fei Fang mentioned this just in time.
"No problem, no problem. Even if he brings a mountain of good feng shui, the one who should die will still die. Just a small pest." Lao Gong had a confident look on his face.
"Hmm, Xu Jian, you still follow Daoist Luo," Fei Fang said.
"I don't have any other thoughts. The one-strike, ten-confrontation method is very good, but we must always be on guard against the three corpse bugs."
If what Fei Fang says is true, and if my guess aligns with his statement, the body of Old Qin's head must not be in Qu's hands. Killing him would still have the method of questioning his soul.
Although, it's highly probable that there's no need to ask anymore.
After getting off the car, I walked straight towards Xu's main gate.
Lao Gong didn't make such a grand display on my shoulder.
To my left was Xu Jian, and to my right was Tang Wu. One had a tiger's robust frame, the other had a slender shoulder, and one was old while the other was young. It made quite a striking pair.
Reach out and knock on Xu's door, twice.
Approximately one to two minutes later, the door opened.
The security guard hesitated for a moment, staring at me blankly.
"Luo... Luo Xianshen?"
I vaguely recognized the security guard. When I first arrived in Jin Yang, my first stop was Xu's house, and at that time, this security guard was full of suspicion and indifference towards me. It was Xu Fangnian who directly took me inside.
Now, his gaze contained a trace of fear.
"Master of the family... Luo Xianshen!"
The security guard spoke again, running in a panic towards the main hall.
"Hmph!" Xu Jian's hands landed heavily on the door, and he pushed it back with force!
With a rumble, the two door panels hit the wall heavily.
We then went inside.
Xu Jian grumbled, "When the Daoist Luo isn't here, you Xu family people come knocking on the door to invite him. But now that Daoist Luo is here, you all run around in a panic. What a waste of a family!"
I didn't respond, maintaining a calm demeanor. However, I carefully examined every detail around me to avoid any traps.
Just as the security guard ran into the main hall, we walked past the garden and saw Xu Fangnian, Xu Nuannuan, and Mr. Qu in the main hall!
The security guard looked extremely anxious, and he didn't even have time to speak.
I noticed that there were four bodies lying on the ground, all with their eyes closed tightly and their lips darkened.
Even if I didn't understand facial features, I could tell at a glance that they had died of poison.
"Xianshen!?" Xu Fangnian's face immediately showed a look of surprise.
Mr. Qu, on the other hand, was slightly squinting his eyes and keeping his expression neutral.
As for Xu Nuannuan, her face showed some uncertainty.
Xu Fangnian is the most insincere, Mr. Qu is the most calm, and Xu Nuannuan is the one who can't control her emotions the most, with a mix of unpredictability, a hint of coldness, and a trace of killing intent.
"Ha ha! Xianshen, I knew you would come to Xu's house!"
"You are, after all, someone who values sentiment. Just like your parents."
Xu Fangnian's face was filled with smiles.
However, his smile began to take on an eerie tone. Especially when his eyelids slightly drooped, there was a terrifying expression of enmity.
To be honest, Xu Fangnian usually greets with a smile. This sudden ominous expression of his did indeed create a slightly bone-chilling sensation.
The transition from amicable to eerie was completed in an instant!
"Don't hurt me, Xu Uncle. You sent people to beat me up in the front, then had them come kill me, didn't you?"
"Still, how could Xu's house be so easily entered?"
Xu Fangnian stopped pretending. He widened his eyes, and his eyes seemed almost to pop out of their sockets.
"I've been waiting for you for so long, Xianshen!"
"But really, I've been waiting for so long!"
"Mr. Qu, don't kill that big guy. I want to torture him well. Xianshen Luo can't stay long; kill him to avoid any trouble. And this old man, whoever he is that you brought, is probably just like these useless ones!"
Xu Fangnian's tone was extremely fast and sharp. His eyes turned fierce!
Xu Nuannuan's unpredictable mood finally eased up, and she let out a scornful look of endless contempt in her eyes.
"Xianshen Luo, I really wanted you to know the kind of person I've chosen. Unfortunately, you're too bad, too cunning, and too crafty. Wait until after you die."
"I've always been curious about why you, Xu Family, keep inviting me. And I'm even more curious about why you sent people to try and kill me, but they failed. Once you step into our house, you can never leave alive."
Xu Nuannuan burst out into laughter.
Her voice was sharp, loud, and defiant.
At the same time, Mr. Qu suddenly pulled out a clay figurine.
The clay figure was wearing tiny clothing, which looked like a Daoist robe. There were numerous characters inscribed on it.
"Hmph!" Without hesitation, Mr. Qu used his other hand to snap the figurine's head off!
A sudden sense of numbness spread over my body!
Initially, I thought the danger to Xu's house was the three corpse bugs.
But I hadn't expected there to be another method!
It wasn't just the numbness, but I felt like my body was being tightly clamped by an invisible hand!
The ground seemed to be the ground, but it was far different from normal land!
It seemed that with me at the center, the entire courtyard was a strange Bagua pattern!
I happen to be standing right here?
Is that really a coincidence? Or did Mr. Qu calculate this precisely?
Or could he control me in a similar or identical way, no matter where I stood!?
Yin-yang magic!?
Lao Gong roared loudly, "Old Tang! He's breaking off the figure's head!"
The chilling feeling spread across my head, and I felt like something invisible was about to envelop my head!
In that instant.
Tang Wu moved!
