678 Blood Red

forcefully dragging the old man out of the hole."As expected of a cunning old fox, those who practice evil arts don't understand the concept of trust." My brother stomped hard on the old man's back.T...The guardian deity of our neighborhood is particularly kind and takes good care of us. Perhaps it's because Jiang Qiyun, a prominent leader, used to live here Anyway, there are hardly any ants in the courtyard.

Don't worry about any ant infestations or water damage and theft.

Mr. Chen and Da Bao incense the Earth God every day to thank him for his protection, and they have not lost their respect because there is a large statue of a god in their home.

Things have been pretty calm lately — except for the drama with my brother, which has been a complete mess…

We needn't explain too much about the Shen and Mu families, they are all our own kin. Besides, these fellows even boasted about attending the engagement banquet, only to encounter a major incident and end up fainting! They were lucky to escape with their lives!

Honor!

The wise elders were very low-key and didn't speak out of turn. The younger generation, however, couldn't contain their excitement and exaggerated the story!

After going through such an event, I definitely have bragging rights.

The Lin family's people are a bit more troublesome, most of their minds are like Lin Yanqin's aunt.

The Mu family were, in their eyes, nothing but nouveau riche lowlifes.

But this nouveau riche also has magic, they've secretly cursed us countless times and sent people to investigate our family. Our hometown suddenly has a lot of suspicious characters.

My ancestral home has my great-grandfather as its guardian, steadfast and immovable like a mountain.

Anyone who tries to offend our family has been "invited" out of town by our fellow villagers.

I'm also hiding in the shop and not going out. My brother and Lin Yanqin are more carefree. They know that explaining this matter is too troublesome, so they simply seek peace and quiet, driving out to be carefree.

Their actions fully illustrated what it means to "turn a deaf ear to outside affairs and only focus on love," completely ignoring all of Lin's relatives.

Be angry Curious Want to show off Want to break up a couple

Sorry, we'll be back to you later.

Actually, it only took a few days for the Lin family to be worn out.

Lin Yanqin's affair ultimately only mattered to her father, her mother, Lin Yanhuan, and herself. No matter how indignant the relatives were, in the end, it was just a commotion.

My brother and Lin Yanqin's strategy is to remain unchanged in the face of all changes, and they don't stay home, so as to avoid being disturbed by anyone.

I'm going on a road trip, no set schedule or route. Driving with my location on WeChat, come chase me if you want!

The Lins are all from wealthy and noble families. How many of them could run around the countryside every day

Lin Yanhuan also called to tell me that this kind of thing should be handled with a cold shoulder. The more you explain, the more unreasonable the Lin family becomes.

So we pretended to be deaf and dumb, learning from Grandpa what it meant to be as immovable as a mountain.

But today, this young man clearly wasn't here to pick a fight with the Lin family. How could the Lin family have someone so gloomy and with such an unknown past

Jiang Qiyun listened to my entire report, his brows furrowed slightly as he asked, "What was in his pocket"

I shook my head. Dad was very tense at the time and absolutely refused to let him take it out.

I didn't see it clearly, but I caught a glimpse of it. It seemed to be some kind of gray object As soon as he opened the zipper on his waist bag, my father sternly told him to leave, saying that we don't accept this kind of thing in our house.

I was just talking with Jiang Qiyun when the window suddenly rattled in the wind— some dark presence had come to pay me a visit.

The little spirit that appeared outside the window was the night wanderer under the jurisdiction of the local City God.

"My Lord Emperor, the Yin soldiers have returned with news. They've found out who left the Little Lady's manor today... That person is very skilled, he managed to lose the pursuing Yin soldiers twice." Yé Yóu Shén said from outside the window.

I wanted to go over and open the window for him, but he waved his hand hurriedly and said, “My lady, please don’t come closer. My appearance is unsightly, I’m afraid it would frighten you.”

What Can it even be uglier than this

I'm a little curious, but they don't want me to see it. I still respect that and go back to sit on the bed myself.

After the night patrol reported the location and direction of the divine general, he disappeared. Jiang Qiyun turned his head to look at me: "…Do you want to go take a look"

Of course, I'm very curious to know who the other party is and why they specifically came looking for me.

The moon was hidden by clouds, and the wind howled through the trees. This kind of weather seemed to be deliberately highlighting the terrifying atmosphere surrounding them.

When I came out of the Dharma Gate, I inexplicably felt that this place was a little familiar.

I seem to have been here before.

"Qiyun, this place seems so familiar, haven't we been here before"

It's so cold here, and there are messy woods, but it doesn't feel deserted at all. You can even see power lines in the distance.

Jiang Qiyun frowned and said, "Of course I know you. This is your school."

What!

School... Me, who's been on leave of absence for so long, is actually able to come back to school. Wow, sweat...

I've never been here before, which is why I feel a strange sense of familiarity.

This is the restricted area behind our school.

Because the city planned a university town, our school, being the most famous one, got the biggest plot of land first. The area behind and beside it is still a large undeveloped zone.

There's a pond and high-voltage transmission towers here, so the school is fenced off with barbed wire and students are absolutely not allowed to enter.

"...It's a wild boar forest, after all." I murmured softly.

Jiang Qiyun frowned slightly: "What"

"Wild Boar Forest, ah, we call the area right in front of our school Wild Boar Forest. There's a fence behind it, but that doesn't stop adventurous students from sneaking in. The fence even has a hole somewhere..."

"Why is it called Wild Boar Forest Are there wild boars" Jiang Qiyun frowned, asking seriously.

Uh...

According to Song Wei's explanation, students often sneak here to have sex. When they let loose, they make some indescribable noises, which is why they are teased by other students as being like pigs being slaughtered. Because it's in the wilderness, it's called "Wild Pig Forest".

>

Here the grass was tall, but as Jiang Qiyun walked, the Yin soldiers parted the grass before him, creating a clear path for us.

The area around high-voltage towers has a chaotic energy field and magnetic field, which some things seem to prefer. They like these dark and chaotic environments.

In the depths of the forest stood an abandoned wooden hut, likely built by hunters or gatherers decades ago.

The hut was covered in vines and leaked both rain and wind. Its door panels were also rotten.

Jiang Qiyun surrounded us with a barrier and walked straight toward the hut.

A heavy breathing echoed from within, a raspy male voice choked out with the dying struggle of unwillingness: "...I have completed my mission, let me die."

"Complete the mission You didn't even touch Mu Xiao Qiao, and you call that completing the mission" Another sharp voice sneered dismissively.

What's coming at me

Jiang Qiyun frowned when he heard my name. My brother and I are now high-profile targets, and I don't know which ambitious person is eyeing us again.

Under the protection of Jiang Qiyun's barrier, I stealthily peeked inside through the broken window.

A young man sat on the ground, gasping for breath. Another dark figure stood before him, a human skin mask clutched in its hand...

< to come here"I nodded, jumped out of the car, and set up a small altar by the roadside. I burned paper talismans and recited incantations with a pinch of luck.A gust of gloomy wind blew, lifting dust...
