Knowing the cause and effect from the fat man Sun Zhengde, and looking at the coincidence of things now, Chen Yuan naturally thought of the zombies he encountered at the inn five years ago, and the bandit gang, but if he really wanted to say that he had something to do with them,
It's uncertain right now. What's certain is that there must be something wrong with the Qin family.
"Master Qin, please get up quickly, the zombie is gone." Chen Yuan used some mana to stabilize Feihe's internal injuries, and went straight to the guard over there where the servants hugged each other in fear. Among them, Qin Tongshan looked at
After looking around and making sure that there was no danger, he slowly got up from behind the servant and hurriedly raised his hands to thank the handsome man in front of him.
"You're welcome, but I have a question that I would like to ask. Can you give me an answer?"
Chen Yuan held her fingers and waved her sleeves to sweep away the air. The rain that fell was deflected and fell a few inches above the heads of several people, making everyone amazed and even more awed by the dull-looking man in front of them.
"This... this gentleman, if you have anything to ask, I... as long as I can answer it, I will tell you all." Qin Tongshan stood up and bowed his head respectfully. Just now, the Taoist Priest of Tianshi Mansion had shown his magic, and in front of him was this
He even used a flying sword to split the zombie into two pieces. He was probably a member of the Immortal Family.
Here, Chen Yuan never liked to talk in circles, and he didn't care about the Qin family servants next to him. He nodded and asked: "How many times has your family moved tombs? Do you have any impressions?"
"Just this once..." Qin Tongshan thought he would ask him something, but it turned out to be something like this. He answered casually, but when he saw the master staring straight at him, he hesitated and twisted his neck, feeling a little hesitant.
frowned.
"It seems...not just once."
He rubbed his fingers and tried to remember. Suddenly his eyes lit up and he quickly raised his face: "I remembered. I remember that when I was young, about six or seven years old, I seemed to have moved the grave once. My second uncle was still there at that time.
I remember what he said to my father, and soon he moved the ancestor's grave to the previous location, but...from that time on, I seem to have never seen my second uncle."
Qin Tongshan was about 23 or 24 years old, and his grave had been moved seventeen years ago. When Chen Yuan came to Ling County, he had actually heard some things about the Qin family. It was during these ten years that the Qin family became prosperous.
"Then do you know the identity of your ancestor of the Qin family? How many years has he been buried?"
When asked about this, Qin Tongshan shook his head in confusion, "I don't know about this. Maybe my father mentioned it before, but I didn't remember it."
"Well, right now this zombie is escaping during a thunderstorm, and after that it sucks human blood. I'm afraid it will become a disaster. It might even find its way to your home. You should go back and tell your father and brother."
"Really...really?" Qin Tongshan was so shocked that he couldn't speak. The corpse just now was so horribly tight that ordinary people could not stop it. He immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Chen Yuan, "Mr.
, please save my family, please.”
"You go back first, Taoist Master Feihe and I will come later."
"Okay, okay, thank you, Master, and the two Taoist priests!"
Qin Tongshan kept bowing, and quickly called his servant to guard the courtyard, mounted his horse and galloped towards the county town. Feihe here nursed his injuries and slowly stood up, frowning: "Fellow Daoist Chen, why did you let him go back alone?
"
"Yes, if you encounter that zombie on the road, you may die." The fat Taoist also nodded in agreement.
"I did it on purpose."
Chen Yuan turned around and walked towards the half body of the body on the ground. He poked the wrinkled flesh twice with his fingertips. It was as hard as iron. If the Moon Sword wasn't the magic weapon of the Canglan Sword Sect, he probably wouldn't have been able to use it.
"Brother Feihe, don't you realize that things are too coincidental? Thunderstorm, relocation of graves, and an heir of the Qin family."
Chen Yuan looked at the half-cut corpse, slowly raised his face, tilted his head to look at the two of them, and continued: "I have a bold guess that the flying corpse is not the ancestor of the Qin family at all, but the missing second uncle of Qin Tongshan.
.”
"What?!"
Feihe has been practicing Taoism for many years and has seen a lot of things, but things like this are rare. In shock, he thought of the word "human sacrifice" that Chen Yuan said just now, and a terrifying idea came into his mind.
"What do you mean, fellow Taoist, Master Qin killed his brother and built a grave to increase the family's fortune?"
"This is a guess."
Chen Yuan twisted his fingertips and when the dirt faded away by itself, he stood up and said, "Go to the Qin family and have a look. If the old man of the Qin family and his eldest son are missing, it means that our guess is true."
"good."
Having sorted out the cause and effect, Feihe felt confident. He took out the talisman, used the five-talisman fire, burned the half-body body on the ground and disposed of it properly, and then returned to Ling County with Chen Yuan.
…
"Dad! Brother!"
The rain fell on the roof and formed bead curtains on the eaves.
In the steaming water, Qin Tongshan didn't have time to wait for the horse to stop, so he turned over, pushed away the old servant who came to meet him, and hurriedly walked into the courtyard. He called a few times, but his father and brother were nowhere to be seen. He pulled a maid who was passing by, and then
Seeing his embarrassed and ferocious look, the reporter shook his head in fear: "Second Young Master, I don't know where the Master and the Eldest Young Master are. I only saw them going to the backyard before."
Qin Tongshan let go of the maid and hurried to the yard. He was somewhat worried about the safety of his father and brother. But when he arrived in the backyard, not only did he not see his father and brother, he even went to the house of his son Qin Xu, who played in the yard every day, and there were people watching over him.
His wife was nowhere to be seen.
The only ones who were still there were his sister-in-law and three nephews who came out of the side room when they heard him calling. The woman was not beautiful in appearance, but she was quiet, elegant and virtuous, and she had the air of a lady in every gesture.
"What's wrong with you, Tongshan? What's the urgency of calling your father and brother?"
"Tongshan has seen my sister-in-law." Qin Tongshan was still considerate in his courtesy to his family. He did not forget to salute, and then asked: "Father and brother, have you seen your sister-in-law? And where are my wife and extended family?"
"Not in the house?"
The woman was also a little confused, "You were playing in the yard just now. As for your father and brother, they came to the backyard, and then they went to nowhere."
Hearing these words, Qin Tongshan felt an inexplicable panic in his heart and had a bad premonition. After all, he was a young man in his twenties or thirties who had grown up under the wings of his father and brother all year round. He couldn't calm down.
Now he felt anxious and said: "Sister-in-law, find a way to find father and brother quickly, our family is in great trouble."
"What a big disaster, don't scare a woman like me."
"Didn't I go to help move the grave today? But suddenly there was thunder, and our ancestor jumped out of the coffin!" He was anxious for a while, and there was no one to discuss it, so he told the woman about the move of the grave.
Some people thought he was joking but didn't take it seriously. After all, his uncle was usually out of tune.
"Really, sister-in-law believes me! All the servants who came with me can testify that we will find my father and brother soon. Something big is going to happen!"
Seeing her uncle waving his hands and stamping his feet anxiously, the woman immediately knew that it might be true as he said. She became anxious and squeezed her handkerchief: "Where can I find your father and brother? They were still in the courtyard just now, quietly.
It disappeared, I thought it went to the front yard."
"Is something going to happen?"
Qin Tongshan didn't know what to do, so he quickly asked the housekeeper to prepare a sumptuous meal and place it in the front yard. He stood at the door of the yard, waiting left and right, looking out.
Waiting for the two Taoist priests and the master who drives the bullock cart to come over.
Soon, the sky turned westward and the rain became heavier.
In the mist of mist, I could hear the sound of cow hooves and axles at the end of the street, approaching from far and near.
"Are they the second young master waiting for you?" The manager, who was used to being arrogant in the city, saw his own young master personally greeting him outside the door. He thought he was some dignitary, but what came was a strange ox cart and a man in a well-dressed suit.
An ordinary man couldn't help but say something, and was glared at by Qin Tongshan next to him.
"Get away."
With that said, he walked out of the eaves in the heavy rain, and raised his hands as he walked: "Sir, you are finally here. Come on, it's raining and it's cold. There are drinks and food in the house. Please enjoy it, sir."
In the car, Chen Yuan returned the salute with a smile, helped the master out of the car, and looked around.
"Are your father and brother here?"
"Not here." Qin Tongshan invited the master to enter the house with him. As he walked, he said: "I was gone when I came back, and my wife and children were also missing. Sir, did something really happen? I...I was thinking
I’m panicking, please sir, please cast a spell to save me.”
Entering the front hall, Qin Tongshan discovered that there were two people missing.
"Where are the other two Taoist priests?"
"They have something to do, I'll come over first." Chen Yuan was not polite. He lifted up his robe and sat down at the table. He picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and put it into the master's bowl. He then said: "By the way, let the courtyard
Everyone from top to bottom is gathered in this room, no matter what happens later, don’t go out.”
"Yes Yes."
Knowing that the flying half of the corpse might be coming, how could Qin Tongshan not listen? He immediately asked the supervisor to inform him, but he couldn't help but ask: "Sir, what about my wife, children, father and brother..."
"We'll find out later."
The lampshade was dimly yellow, and moths kept hitting it.
Chen Yuan picked up a glass of wine, took a sip, looked at the heavy rain falling, and said softly: "...I hope you can hold on after knowing this."
On the side, Qin Tongshan was stunned, not knowing what the expert meant.
Soon, the servants and maids in the courtyard, the brothers and sisters in the backyard, and the three nephews were all invited to the hall. The woman was already confused when she came all the way, but when she saw the old man and the young man eating and drinking as if there was no one around, she couldn't help but frown.
.
"Uncle, who are these two people?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the sound of rain outside suddenly became louder, and the sound of the rain overwhelmed everything else. The night wind squeezed in through the doors and windows, causing the lights and candles in the hall to flicker and flicker, leaving a hint of blue.
At this time, the courtyard door directly opposite seemed to be blown by the wind, and was slightly pushed inward a few times.
