14 Mistress

At around 10 a.m., we returned to Yuquan Mountain.

After arriving at home, I just drank a glass of water and the doorbell rang.

Xiaojun and I came to the door and opened it and saw that there was a young woman outside, behind her was He Liansheng and an old man.

The woman is not tall, slender, and beautiful, looking only twenty-six or twenty-seven years old, but in fact, she is over three hundred years old.

Seeing that we were out, He Liansheng immediately introduced us, "Master Wu Zheng, this is our mistress. Sister-in-law, this is Master Wu Zheng."

"Miss Mother?" I looked at the woman.

"Hello, Mr. Wu Zheng, my name is Chen Xi." The woman took the initiative to extend her hand to me.

"Hello," I said lightly.

Chen Xi then shook hands with Xiao Jun, "Hello Miss Jun."

"Do you know me?" Xiaojun was stunned.

"Miss Jun is a famous lady in Beijing. I naturally know your name," Chen Xi said, looking at me, "My husband He Lianyu is the head of the He family in Bashu. He should have come in person this time. But it is not convenient for him and our son now, and neither father nor son can come to visit the young master. According to the rules of the He family, the head of the family and the young master cannot take care of the matter, so the mistress temporarily takes over the power and takes charge of the family affairs. So, I took the liberty to come, hoping that the young master, Miss Jun will not mind."

"Understand", I nodded, "Miss Chen, please!"

"Please!" Chen Xi said.

She looked at He Liansheng and the old man behind her, "You are waiting outside."

"Yes, mistress!" the two of them said respectfully.

We invited Chen Xi into the living room and sat down. Xiaojun went to brew three cups of tea and brought it over.

"Thank you Miss Jun," Chen Xi said.

"You are polite," Xiaojun smiled, put the tea, and then sat down next to me.

Chen Xi took a sip of tea, put down the tea bowl, and let out a gentle breath, looking at me, "Master Wu Zheng, you must have known my intention. My husband knew what He Liansheng did before, and he did not stop it. It was him wrong. I apologize to you in this generation. The He family is in a critical situation now, so please let the young master ignore his past grudges and help us."

In fact, this is a scene. When the He family’s mistress spoke, my face was enough.

I nodded and asked her, "What happened to the He family?"

"In the past half a month, the heads of the six branches of the He family, including my husband and son, have all lost their cultivation overnight," she said, "We are the demon clan. Without cultivation, it means that we have no qualifications to survive. Not to mention that there may be changes within the family, if it is spread, other demon clans will also be ready to move us. In order not to disturb the entire clan, my husband issued an order to summon all the heads of the six branches to the mountain, and said to the outside world that it was a meeting of elders. In fact, it was trying to solve this problem."

"Yeah," I nodded, "And what?"

"This matter is very strange. We basically ruled out that it was done by other demons," she said. "Short after the accident, we received a report that a strange phenomenon appeared in the He family's spiritual tomb. That night, red light filled the sky, and a large amount of black air surged out of the spiritual tomb. Where the black air passed, fish and birds died, and plants died. Not to mention humans, even if the demons approached, they would die in an instant. Overnight, there was a dead domain in the car."

"Spiritual Tomb?" Xiaojun was puzzled.

"Oh, Lingzhong is a mountain, located in the southwest of Bashu, about 700 miles from Rongcheng," Chen Xi explained, "There is an underground palace in the mountain, where the coffins of the ancestors of the He family have been buried. The He family calls it Lingzhong, which is the ancestral tomb of our family."

"The He family is a demon clan, and their descendants basically transform into fetals." I looked at her, "Even if you cannot become a saint in your body, you can re-transform into fetals after impermanence. How can the He family have a spiritual tomb?"

"Our He family is different from other demon races," Chen Xi said, "Our descendants of my family, unless they can cultivate to become immortals, will no longer be able to transform into a fetus once they are impermanent. If they are not buried in the spiritual tomb, they will sooner or later be lost. There are many descendants of the He family, but not many of them can enter the spiritual tomb. Only the heads, mistresses, elders and their wives of the past dynasties have this qualification. Of course, those who have made great contributions to the He family will be buried in the spiritual tomb after their death."

I nodded silently.

"After the abnormality of the Lingzhong, my husband and elders realized that this was a Feng Shui problem," Chen Xi said, "We are a demon clan, and we don't understand Feng Shui geomantic technique. So we wanted to ask the Feng Shui master to solve this problem for us. After screening, we finally decided to invite you. But He Liansheng said that He Xiaoxiao had a last word at the end of his life, asking him to kill the shadow and avenge her. He said that someone from the Chu family gave him news and said that Master Wu Zheng, you are the shadow. He felt that you had a good relationship with Chu Linglong, the head of the Chu family, and was on her side. The matter of the Chu family before... I don't need to say it, you guessed that the He family was also involved. He was worried that you would take this opportunity to revenge the He family for Chu Linglong, so..."

I smiled, "I understand."

She sighed and looked at me, "Young Master, what my husband did is indeed wrong in this matter, and I can only ask you to understand. Some things may not be understood. The relationship between our He family and the Chu family is very complicated, and many of the things involved are too many. Chu Linglong has just taken over the leadership of the Chu family, and it is her aunt Chu Tao who is in charge of the real power of the Chu family. If she knew the current situation of the He family, she would definitely not miss this opportunity. So my husband had to worry about this..."

"I understand this," I said, "Chu Linglong and I are friends, so it is normal for you to be worried about me."

"Actually, I'm quite ashamed," she smiled helplessly, "We have heard of your reputation, but I still think a little bit more, so I've caused these misunderstandings."

"No need to say this," I looked at her, "You invited others later, what did they see?"

"I didn't see anything," she hesitated for a moment, "These two people were killed, and I still don't know who the murderer is."

"I was killed?" I frowned.

"Yeah," she nodded, "The first one is Huang Ziqiao, the master of Fengshui in Guangdong. He was killed on the way to the spiritual tomb; the second one is that the local Fengshui master in Bashu is called Li Chaochen. He arrived at the spiritual tomb. We also sent many people to protect him, but they were still killed. They died miserably, and their deaths were exactly the same, and they were all..."

She looked at us and didn't say anything.

Xiaojun took it and "open the heart."

Chen Xi was stunned, "Miss Jun knows?"

Xiaojun let out a light sigh and looked at me, "Someone doesn't want them to get close to the spiritual tomb."

"Who?" Chen Xi frowned.

Xiaojun glanced at her, "Your own people."

"Own family?" Chen Xi was puzzled, "Who is it?"

Xiaojun didn't say anything and turned to look at me.

Chen Xi saw it and asked me quickly, "Young Master, do you know who it is?"

"Is there a person named He Lianwu in your He family?" I asked.
