Chapter 926: Gaojiazhuang Suffered a Series of Disasters and the Corpse-Reincarnating Immortal Died in Heisongling (Part 1)

Duanmu Huai and Sun Wukong were about to say goodbye and leave when they suddenly heard the steward wailing. When they listened carefully, they saw the steward throwing himself to the ground and crying loudly.

"Madam, the groom is dead and the eldest lady is also missing!"

Hearing this, Mrs. Gao's expression changed drastically, and she immediately collapsed and passed out. The frightened people rushed forward, pinching and pinching people, and this made Mrs. Gao come back to his senses. But seeing the lady composed herself, she asked.

"What's going on? Tell me in detail!"

"Yes, ma'am."

The steward also stood up now, his face was pale, and he spoke tremblingly.

"Just now, I wanted to wake my uncle up. After all, it was already afternoon, and there were still many things to do. But no one answered the door no matter how hard I knocked, so I asked my maid to open the door to check. I saw that After the maid entered the room, she screamed and lost her voice. She felt something was wrong, so she hurriedly went in to check, and then she saw my uncle...my uncle..."

"What's wrong with him? Tell me quickly."

Seeing the hesitant look on the steward's part, Mrs. Gao also hurriedly urged. After hearing what Mr. Gao said, the steward also gritted his teeth and spoke.

"My uncle, his entire chest and abdomen were cut open, and even his brain was smashed. He is no longer human."

"ah-----!"

Hearing this, Mrs. Gao screamed and then... fainted.

Fortunately, the people around her now had experience, and they hurriedly supported Gao and skillfully woke her up again. With tears in his eyes, Mr. Gao looked at Duanmu Huai and Sun Wukong and bowed again.

"Unfortunately, the Gao family suffered such a disaster. It must be the work of monsters. I heard that the two elders are very good at subduing monsters. Please save me."

"this……………"

Seeing Mrs. Gao's pleading, Duanmu Huai and Sun Wukong looked at each other helplessly. After all, they had a banquet and took money...

What else can be done? Just go and have a look?

"Okay, let the two of us take a look and find out what's going on."

While talking, Duanmu Huai asked the steward to lead the way, and he and Sun Wukong followed behind and arrived at the new house. The new house looks festive, with bright red words of joy on the windows. At this moment, the door of the room was wide open, and the strong smell of blood came from it. When the steward arrived at the door, he dared not go in without saying anything. Duanmuhuai didn't bother to pay attention to him and walked directly into the room.

Then I saw the groom lying on the bed in a large shape. His entire chest and abdomen were broken open, his internal organs were spilled on the floor, and his head was smashed, and the brain inside was beaten into a ball of paste. .

"Good guy...this is really..."

Seeing this scene, Duanmu Huai was a little speechless. Originally, he was wondering if he was on a business trip to the set of Bao Qingtian or Conan. But now that he saw it - well, he was quarreling with Hannibal. Already?

By the way, is there such a heart-and-lung-eating monster in Journey to the West?

Duanmuhuai remembered that there were many stories about monsters eating people in novels. He remembered that when Sun Wukong was angry, there was a monster that was eating dead people and drinking wine at the same time. But after reading too much, the words densely packed in the lines only said about eating people. As for how to eat them - it didn't say anything.

"Monkey, what do you think?"

After all, Monkey Sun is familiar with all kinds of gods and monsters in the world, so he might have some ideas. But I saw the monkey scratching his head and ears, thinking for a moment, and then shook his head.

"Master? In my opinion, this may not be the work of monsters."

"Oh? Why?"

"Every monster must have evil aura, even if it takes the form of a human. As long as I look up at the sky, I can see that it is the flow of black clouds and evil aura. But last night, it was pure, there were no monsters at all, and there are no monsters here. Angry, so in my opinion, this doesn’t look like a monster’s method.”

"You wouldn't say this was done by humans, would you?"

Duanmu Huai pointed at the disemboweled corpse with his mind blown. Although it was not impossible, the set he was on was Journey to the West. Don't get me a Bao Qingtian. We can't play with this thing. change.

"Master, don't be impatient. I will let you know when I go and ask."

Fortunately, Sun Wukong had great magical powers, and he turned around and disappeared. Duanmu Huai also knew that he had many ideas, so he stopped talking nonsense and just stood at the window and waited. At this time, there were more and more servants outside, and they all dared to lie in the crack of the door, not daring to make a sound.

After a while, the monkey flashed out again and returned to Duanmu Huai's side.

"Master, I have it!"

"What's up? Do you have a child?"

"No, I, Old Sun, just searched for nearby land and inquired about the city gods here. Then I found out something. They all said that the Gao family has a destiny."

"Immortal fate?"

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai's heart moved, and he suddenly remembered what he said at yesterday's banquet. At that time, the merchant said that when Gao Jianan died early, the Gao family's industry was in turmoil. At that time, everyone thought it was going to be bad, but in the end, the Gao family took action and it fell steadily. After that, the family business grew bigger and bigger.

At that time, everyone thought this was a good trick of the Gao family. Now that I think about it...could it be that she was involved with the gods?

If you think about it carefully, it's not impossible. In the New Legend of White Snake, Bai Suzhen and a snake demon can make Xu Xian's medical clinic prosperous. If he were a real immortal, wouldn't it be easy to bring such a medical clinic back to life? It's just that... this god can also engage in strange killings?

Duanmu Huai scratched his head. To be honest, he was not very familiar with the system of Xianxia. He had only watched some weird TV series such as Journey to the West, Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio, or Legend of Jigong and Justice Bao. Of course, there are many Xianxia in online literature, such as Honghuang and this and that... But I don't think it's possible for me to find a Shushan Sect in Journey to the West and make a Zhuxian Sword Formation.

They are not the same setting.

Although there are immortals who eat people in Journey to the West, they are all immortals transformed from monsters. The genuine immortals still have some reason... Well, it doesn't seem right.

Thinking about the two Luohans who guarded the gate and asked for bribes in the West, Duanmu Huai snorted lightly.

Is it funny that he made a lot of black history when he went to the West this time?

"In short, go ask Gao and you will know."

Duanmu Huai was also resolute and made a decision. He walked out of the new house and came to the wing room. At this time, Gao was lying on the couch, looking like she didn't have much time left. Seeing Duanmu Huai and Sun Wukong, she also hurriedly forced herself to sit up.

"May I ask the two elders, have you found anything?"

"Not really."

Duanmu Huai stepped forward and stared at Gao.

"I heard that... Madam Gao seems to have some immortal fate... I wonder if I can ask for your advice?"

Hearing Duanmu Huai's words, Gao's face changed slightly, and then she immediately dispersed the people around her, and waited for others to leave the room before she collapsed on the couch.

"Ah, this is what I'm afraid of..."

Gao also shed tears and whispered.

"To be honest, it's not that I have an immortal fate, but that my Gao family has an immortal fate."

"Oh? What do you mean?"

"Please look, both of you."

At this moment, Gao also stood up, walked to the Buddhist shrine and opened it, only to see that the one enshrined inside was neither the Three Pure Ones nor the Tathagata, neither Guanyin nor the City God, but a portrait of a white-clothed scholar. The scholar in the portrait was dressed in a white robe, holding a scroll in his hand, looking up at the sky, which looked like a good painting.

"What is this......?"

"My Gao family has been selling cloth for generations. Thanks to everyone's support, we are also quite famous. When my great grandfather was out delivering goods one day, a flood broke out in the mountains, and the entire caravan was trapped and was about to die. That night, my great grandfather met a white-robed scholar in his dream. He said that he was a messenger from the sky who turned into a star. He had a predestined relationship with my great grandfather, so he came down to earth to save him.

He and my great grandfather also made three rules, saying that he could fulfill the three wishes of the Gao family, but he would pay for it. At that time, my great grandfather begged him to save his life......"

Speaking of this, Gao sighed.

"According to my great grandfather, when he woke up again, he had this painting in his arms. The flood and heavy rain outside stopped at some point, so my great grandfather happily led the caravan to deliver the goods. Because of the weather at that time, cloth from all over the country was not available, and my great grandfather made a lot of money. However, when my great grandfather returned home, he was told that on the day he left the mountain, my great grandmother suddenly fell ill and passed away. At that time, my great grandfather was also very sad and cried. In the haze, I saw the white-robed scholar reappear, saying that the reward had been received and asked my great grandfather to take care of himself."

"Oh........."

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai snorted lightly. This routine was very familiar.

"Grandfather also suspected that this was an evil god, but he couldn't beat him. He wanted to burn or throw away the portrait, but no matter what he did, the portrait would appear again. So Grandfather could only lock the portrait in the warehouse and pass it on to his descendants before he died. He said that the man in white robes would indeed fulfill your wish, but he would use your closest person as a reward..."

"Hmm? So your husband..."

Duanmu Huai seemed to understand something, and Gao nodded.

"That's right, just as the saintly monk thought, by my generation, the Gao family's industry had begun to decline. Although my husband was a son-in-law, he also worked hard, but unfortunately there was no good result. At that time, my family received a large order, but it was framed by a villain and could not be completed. My husband was so angry that he fainted. I thought that the Gao family's century-old foundation must not be destroyed in my hands, so..."

"So you asked for the portrait?"

"Yes..."

Gao lowered her head and nodded.

"I took the portrait out of the warehouse, lit incense and prayed, then fell into a deep sleep. In my dream, I also saw the white-clothed scholar, who said that he would do what I wanted. When I woke up, the empty warehouse was already filled with fine cloth. Thanks to the white-clothed scholar, my Gao family was able to complete the transaction in time..."

"I say, you are too weird."

At this moment, Sun Wukong was scratching his head and asked curiously.

"Anyone can do this kind of thing, why do you have to go in person? Find an unmarried person and see how he treats it?"

"I have tried it before. I found people from the Gao family, as well as the steward and servants to kneel down, but there was no result. Only the head of the Gao family has this ability..."

"Well... I understand."

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai nodded. Good guy, this is really a plot of a museum.

Hmm? But it's not right?

"Then according to your statement, how about the groom being killed last night?"

"This............"

Faced with Duanmu Huai's question, Gao said nothing, with a hint of panic on her face.

Hmm?

Seeing this, Duanmu Huai was stunned.

Then he looked at the widow in front of him meaningfully. Although she was a little old, she was still graceful. And it’s not as the saying goes, thirty is like a tiger and forty is like a wolf...

“Excuse me, who is the groom?”

“He was originally a servant who took care of the flowers and plants in my family...”

“…………………”

Keywords: gardener, widow, wealthy family.

Good guy, the license plate number popped up immediately.

Duanmu Huai almost guessed what was going on.
