Funerary Lady Jin Xiu 34180K 2022-07-20

Just as I finished speaking, Liu Qing suddenly turned and looked out the window, smiling bitterly:

”Actually, I had a lot of questions I wanted to ask you a few days ago, but I found out later that you don't know anything that I want to know.

What you want to know, I don't think I know anything.

Right now, I'm only doing what my father told me before he died. As for my father's motive, he said that I will find out in the future.

I know a lot about this village, but... I'm sorry.

”I'm also investigating the clues right now. I can't help you.”

After saying this and seeing me fall silent, Liu Qing continued to speak:

”There are some things I know, but I can't tell you.

It won't do you any good to know it too early. That's what my father told me.

”The two of us are the same, we are both in the dark. You don't know if our father is a friend or an enemy, and neither do I.”

As he said that, Liu Qing took another glance at the window, then asked me:

”Last night, you cast a mystical technique that was truly evil. Do you know what those symbols mean?”

I shook my head.

”At the beginning, I drew those symbols myself, but later on, it was as if there was some sort of special power driving me.”

Liu Qing also saw my situation last night, so he wasn't surprised to hear me say this, he only sighed:

”What happened last night might leave behind a large hidden danger.

The Yin Yang Art already has Qian Tianhe. With your ability, you shouldn't be able to control so much Yin Qi.

He must have paid some sort of price … Pay attention to yourself...

”If you hadn't practiced this kind of demonic technique to perfection, you wouldn't have been able to use it.”

Liu Qing said to me with a hint of worry in his voice.

Now I know that although Liu Qing was sloppy when he talked to me, he was still wary of me.

I was suspicious of him, and he of me.

But despite my suspicions, she still saved me time and time again …

”It's dark. I'm going to leave.

Let me tell you one more thing, my father told me before about the death of Aunt Zhang.

The recent deaths in the village were all caused by the ghosts of the Aunt Zhang.

The few people who were involved in her death all died.

Of course, other than you, your luck is better. ”

”Will the Aunt Zhang continue looking for me?”

I asked after a moment.

I had suspected long ago that from the moment I was in Funerary Lady, those people who died might have had something to do with Aunt Zhang's death.

Or slander, or spread, and I should be the culprit.

But who would have thought that I would be the only one left after Aunt Zhang killed so many people.

And what did this adoptive father have to do with it?

”No, I don't think so. It has been over since last night.”

”Aunt Zhang... Have you lost your soul? ”

I asked.

”Aunt Zhang's soul is fine, the problem is you, your body has undergone some kind of change, I won't let Aunt Zhang get involved to you anymore.”

”Then, has this matter come to an end?”

I asked.

”Aunt Zhang's matter has come to an end, but it has ended … But it's not the end. My father told me to do something else, but there should be more things that will happen. ”

Thinking about it, there were still many doubts that he had yet to clarify. How could it end so easily?

When it was dark, Liu Qing left. After all, the village knew him, he could not stay in the village for long, and he could not be seen by others.

It was only after he had gone that I remembered that he had looked at the handprint on my calf while I was asleep.

How did he know of the existence of these handprints? And after I woke up, he didn't mention the handprint, did he forget it, didn't want to talk about it, or didn't care?

That night, I stood outside the big gate and looked at the thin moonlight in the sky. Suddenly, I saw a person standing at the entrance of Aunt Zhang's house.
