"This happened two weeks ago," Hu Yuanwai sighed and began to tell: "Two weeks ago at night, I suddenly heard a woman singing in my sleep.
I didn't pay much attention at first, until early the next morning, the captain of the mansion's guard suddenly died.
The appearance of his death was particularly ferocious. He seemed to have encountered something very terrifying, and he seemed to have been frightened to death.
From then on, a woman's singing voice would be heard every night in our Hu family.
However, no matter how hard I led people to search, I could not find where the singing voice came from.
Every morning, someone dies in the house, even if I gather everyone together, everyone will stay up all night.
There will still be people missing and dying the next day. Until now, nearly twenty people in our Hu Mansion have died.
Many servants resigned and left, and many people said I was cursed."
"There are no ghosts in this world. They must be caused by some villains," Wang Tao said disdainfully: "Don't worry, Mr. Hu, I will personally patrol the Hu Mansion tonight and ensure that the murderer is caught."
"Okay, those geniuses, please be careful. If you need anything, just ask," Hu Yuanwai said quickly.
"Gather everyone left in the mansion tonight. No one is allowed to leave. I want to see who is causing trouble," Wang Tao said sternly.
"No problem, then I'll leave it to the geniuses," Hu Yuanwai nodded.
Seeing Wang Tao's arrogant assurance, Xu Zimo didn't say a word, he just smiled faintly.
Whether the sect's mission was completed or not was of no significance to him. He came here just to take something away.
He even wished that all these people would die. The more the thing swallowed, the stronger it would be, and the greater its effect on Xu Zimo would be in the future.
A few people were chatting and laughing happily when they suddenly saw a little girl running in from outside.
"Daddy, are there any guests at home?" The little girl had two pigtails and a babyish voice. She looked like she was only four or five years old.
"Ying'er, come to daddy." Hu Yuanwai seemed to love his daughter very much. He quickly held the little girl in his arms and introduced to everyone: "This is my daughter, Hu Yingying. She was seriously ill some time ago.
,Fortunately, this curse did not attack my daughter."
After several people finished eating, the sky gradually darkened, and the drizzle seemed to be getting heavier and heavier.
Raindrops began to fall down one by one along the eaves, and the entire Hu family was shrouded in a light mist.
Then Hu Yuanwai called all the servants in the mansion to the side hall. In fact, there were not many people left in the mansion.
As the servants kept dying and walking, the number of people in the entire huge Hu Mansion turned out to be less than twenty.
"We are responsible for patrolling the east courtyard, how about you patrol the west courtyard?" Wang Tao looked at Xu Zimo and the others and asked.
"Boy, do you still want to be beaten? It's not your turn to tell me what to do," Xiao Guizi looked at the other person and said.
Then he looked at Xu Zimo, waiting for Xu Zimo's instructions.
"You guys go on patrol, I'll stay in the hall to protect these people except Mr. Hu," Xu Zimo stretched out and said somewhat boringly.
"Okay," Wang Tao didn't dare to say anything more, so he left with the people from the Shenri Holy Sect.
"Senior brother, let's go patrol the west courtyard," Xiao Guizi said from the side.
Xu Zimo looked up and saw that the rain in the sky seemed to be getting heavier and heavier, and the darkness of the sky gave people a particularly strange feeling.
"If there is anything to patrol, go back and rest early," Xu Zimo said nonchalantly, and then went to the side hall.
Xiao Guizi and Lin Ruhu were left with confused faces.

Ren Pingsheng hurried home all the way, and after taking the elixir given by Xu Zimo, his injuries were almost healed.
His mind is now filled with the inheritance of his ancestor, Emperor Tunri.
Finally, when the sky gradually darkened, he rushed to the ancestral temple of his family.
Since the fall of the Ren family, few people have come to the ancestral temple anymore.
He opened the small wooden door that had been eroded by time. The lights in the ancestral temple were dim and the air inside was stuffy.
Directly in front is the statue of his ancestor, Emperor Tunri, which is covered with dust and cobwebs.
This statue was carved by later generations based on the portrait of their ancestor, but no matter how skilled craftsmen they hired at that time, they could not completely restore the appearance of their ancestor.
In the end, only a back statue was carved by later generations.
Ren Pingsheng walked to the statue, knelt down and kowtowed three times, and then bowed three times.
Then he came to the statue and moved the statue away little by little. Then Ren Pingsheng searched on the altar and found a dark brick that could be moved.
He pushed the brick aside, revealing a hidden groove. The shape of the hidden groove was exactly the same as the shape of the flute.
Ren Shengsheng's breathing became heavier, his mind went blank, and he put the flute into the dark slot with trembling hands.
Then the entire ancestral temple began to shake, endless spiritual energy began to condense in the sky above the ancestral temple, and an extremely deep vortex appeared in front of Ren Pingsheng's eyes.
The moment this vortex appeared, the space collapsed, and countless air was squeezed and exploded, turning into air arrows scattered around.
Ren Pingsheng looked at the scene in front of him and was filled with excitement. He murmured to himself: "Yue Buli, just wait. When I come back, I will crush your Tianjian Sect."
Ren Pingsheng walked into the vortex with excitement, and then the vortex closed, and the surroundings returned to normal, as if nothing had happened.

At this time, in the Zhenwu Holy Sect, on Miaoliu Peak where the six elders lived, Baili Xiao was sitting among the white lotus flowers.
This white lotus is the inheritance of Empress Hongtian. Bailixiao's face is indifferent, and a lock of hair is fluttering in the breeze.
There is spiritual energy condensed on the white lotus, which nourishes her body all the time. The white mist floats around her, and she is like a fairy descending from the sky.
Her white clothes are fluttering, her skin is as good as snow, and she has bright lips and white teeth, as if just one look at her is a blasphemy.
After not seeing her for a long time, she seems to have more and more fairy spirit in her body.
Suddenly, with a "bang" sound, the pulse gate of Baili Xiao's right Xuan Gu opened, she broke through to the pulse condensation realm, and boundless spiritual energy washed her body.
She stood up slowly and walked out of the white lotus, walking in lotus steps. The two maids beside her had been guarding her for a long time.
These two maids were the twins Xu Zimo had met during the freshman trial, Xue Qianxue and Xue Mengmeng.
"Sister Xiao, have you broken through the Pulse Condensation Realm?" Xue Mengmeng on the side blinked her cute big eyes and asked in surprise.
"We just made a breakthrough, you guys have to work hard," Bailixiao smiled and said softly.
