Set up the situation. 1039
"...Are you sure she's suitable for the Female Gu"I sighed.Heaven and earth, the Purple Palace of the Underworld.Can anyone definitively determine a person's futureThe two qi of yin and yang give birt...My house has a cellar underground. It's a remnant of an old building, and I know that.
But how did a hole appear in the floor If it leads to outside the walls, my front door and security cameras are useless.
This is no ordinary cellar. The cold light from my phone reveals walls covered in blue bricks, each brick etched with the image of a wrathful golden king.
A furious Arhat My family cultivates Daoist healers, how could there be something so inappropriate appear here
And it's huge here, my phone light can't reach the dark corners. I imagine the whole courtyard's underground has been hollowed out.
The person who built this underground chamber must have been very familiar with the layout of my house, they didn't dig at all towards the side of the underground garage.
"Click." A soft click echoed through the darkness, causing me to instinctively clutch Bai Ni's "neck," almost forgetting that she was the most terrifying thing here.
I shone my phone's light into the distance, and in the far corner, a white, hazy figure flickered.
"Ah!" I was startled, is this a human or a ghost!
That phantom shifted towards me, as if turning its head to look at me.
"What's your name" the figure muttered impatiently.
Damn, it's Long Ge!
"You, I was worried something happened to you, so I came to check. And you were here playing pranks and scaring me!" I said angrily.
Upon hearing my exclamation, Shang Mian Mu Wan Chen immediately opened a magical portal behind me and pulled me back.
Long Xiao stood in the shadows, his thin frame and white clothes making him look like a ghost.
He whispered, "There are some things here, I don't understand what they're for..."
Hearing him say that, I curiously looked out from Mu Wanchen's arms. The light from my phone swept across the surroundings, and I discovered that there were quite a few things piled here.
And... it's strange.
There are children's clothes, children's toys, and children's bottles, etc.
Those clothes have turned yellow, and the toys are damaged. Some dolls have their cotton stuffing showing, and there are Barbie dolls missing arms or legs.
These things that look like junk, how could they be placed in an underground vault
The strangest thing was the crib, but it didn't look like a normal crib. It didn't have bars, just a few wooden planks surrounding it.
It's more like a coffin than a bed.
"What are these things, magic artifacts" I walked speechless towards these objects.
In the dark basement, so many broken and old items were piled up. Could someone have lived here before
"Old items often carry the breath of life, even if they are not artifacts. But in the hands of a discerning person, they can become 'useful' things." Mu Wanchen picked up a teddy bear with cotton wool sticking out from its head and said with a frown.
Long Xiaogē pointed at the ceiling: "This is a courtyard above, but a secret room below. The shadow I saw disappeared, whether it was a person or a scarecrow paper horse, I don't know. Anyway, it disappeared up there. This secret room is definitely not an ordinary storage room."
I was at a loss and raised my hand, saying, "I'll call Brother Jun and Father now. I might as well check on Madam Mu's condition."
"Madam Mu…" Mu Wanchen suddenly repeated softly.
Brother Long seemed to understand something, and he frowned: "Someone used this method to worship the dead"
Ancestor worship I was startled and hurriedly asked, "How do you perform ancestor worship Isn't ancestor worship about using red thread and burning paper"
Mu Wanchen shook his head and said, "That's a method used on living people. But for a child in the womb who hasn't been born yet and whose three souls and seven spirits are unstable, using objects with a childish aura to lure their soul is also a form of sorcery."
"These things look strange and eerie, with a touch of evil. They haven't attracted any malevolent spirits here, which must be due to the special environment. Your Taoist home worships many holy ancestors, and this secret room uses murals of the wrathful gaze of Vajrapani. This is probably meant to prevent the evil from spreading outside and clashing with the deities you revere."
"So, are these things for Mrs. Mu The only one who's pregnant in my house is her. These items that smell like a child are used to summon souls with rituals, which led to her illness Then we've committed a grave sin! How could I possibly know there was such a place as this in my home—" I frantically scratched my head.
Matters of the esoteric are truly profound and enigmatic. How can one possibly know the full extent of their influence on Madam Mu and her child
And this kind of chronic poison-like soul-calling method, it is unknown how long it has existed, and who would want to harm people in such a way.
"Since something like this appeared in your home, it must have been done by someone within your family. Who else would have the ability to do this without attracting attention" Long Xiao frowned: "I haven't met everyone in your family yet. Who among them is carrying evil energy"
"If there's evil spirit on anyone in my family, wouldn't my eldest brother know"
“No, maybe it’s because we’re too familiar that we can’t notice these subtle abnormalities. After all, we all know how to cover them up.” Long Xiao said with the air of someone who had been through this before: “Betrayal often happens right beside us. Outsiders and enemies don't have the ability to betray you. The closer and more understanding they are, the easier it is to betray…”
I held my phone, feeling a bit flustered.
If Mrs. Mu were to be murdered by "someone" in my family, how could I possibly explain it to Master Yunfan
Master Yunfan was originally going to confront the Dragon King himself. Since Madam Mu would be alone at home, she could be harmed by some malicious people within our circle, so I took her in.
My home is known for its wisdom and skilled physicians. There are many people here, and we have no enemies. This place seems very safe on the surface, but one must always be vigilant, as even close ones can betray you.
We need to inform Master Jun's senior brother as soon as possible.
There was no signal on my phone at all.
“I, I’ll go make a phone call. You guys check around here for any buried dangerous items…” I ordered, winking at Bai Ni.
Bai Ni's body was coiled below the entrance, allowing me to step onto it.
I heaved open the flipped stone slab and clambered out with effort.
The house was dark, the air cold, and lifeless.
I stepped out of the house, and the courtyard was bathed in cold moonlight. I lowered my head and prepared to make a phone call.
A figure silently approached me. In the hazy moonlight, I saw the shadow on the ground and reflexively looked up and asked, "Who—"
"Little apprentice sister, what are you doing here" The senior apprentice sister crossed her arms and stood in front of me, staring with wide eyes. "It's so dark here, why don't you turn on the light"
"I, I…" I couldn't react for a moment. How did Senior Sister get here
This courtyard is prepared for the eldest sister. Could it be that she thinks I've trespassed on her territory
"What are you, you mischievous little thing, so unruly..." she muttered in a reproachful tone.
“Well, I’ll go back to my room now.” Oh no, oh no, Mu Wanchen and Brother Long are still inside.
I want to take my elder sister away, but she doesn't show any signs of leaving, it seems like she wants to lock the door.
"That, Senior Sister—" I turned my head and hurriedly called out.
The senior sister turned back and gave me a slight smile: "What's all the fuss about"
"Well, I think we should get someone to clean the house, haha, it seems kind of dusty..."
The elder sister narrowed her eyes and suddenly evoked a somewhat strange smile: "You...didn't you get into mischief again, did you..."sired the vastness of the primordial wilderness.I want the Nine States and the Four Seas.I want exotic flowers and strange grasses, rare birds and beasts.
