The Lay of the Fellow Travelers

o deal with corpses. Yin soldiers are probably ineffective against the Corpse King. Last time I cut off a piece of the Corpse Demon's tongue, it was also using Liu Ding Liu Jia.Is he planning to take...I know the Shen family is renowned in the circle, and I also know that women of the Shen family are more domineering than men, but I didn't expect Shen Qingrui to fly over by helicopter just for Jiang Qiyun's words.

My brother and I looked at each other silently: look, this kind of pomp and circumstance, our family doesn't even have a decent car, let alone a helicopter.

Shen Qingrui couldn't see Jiang Qiyun. She rushed straight toward me and asked in a low voice, "Where is the Emperor"

I glanced at my side, without speaking.

She dared not show too much disdain for me in front of Jiang Qiyun, she just rolled her eyes at me and turned slightly to face the air beside me.

"Lord Emperor, what commands do you have for us" she asked softly.

"A ghost swarm has opened here. Have your people from the Shen family set up a barrier in this area to prevent the formation from tilting and allowing ghosts to leak out and harm people," Jiang Qiyun instructed in a low voice. "What about your grandmother"

"The old woman went to Huangdao Village for an inspection and hasn't returned yet."

"Then you should take charge of this. If any ghosts leak out, send them back as quickly as possible."

"Yes!" She clicked her heels and turned back to instruct the several Taoists who followed her.

Look at the power of other families' rule, then look at our Mu family. We basically don't interact with each other. Besides the grandfather who can issue orders, whether it's the main branch or the branch families, everyone lives their own lives. Family affection is very thin.

In the yard, black mist was swirling around. The open door looked like a black hole that swallowed everything. In a daze, I seemed to see many hands reaching out from inside the door. Some were white bones, some swollen and gray.

I thought I must have misread it. I rubbed my eyes and looked again, but there was only a sheet of black mist.

Jiang Qiyun's side profile was a bit somber, his eyes worried, clutching my hand tightly.

"...If a ghost portal was really opened here, how could we possibly seal it Would this place become the second Huangdao Village" I asked him nervously.

He shook his head: “It’s not that bad. Huangdao Village has a special historical reason for its formation, but it can be quite troublesome here as well. The eight hells are where the wicked ghosts who have no hope of reincarnation are punished. Once they escape, they would pose a great danger to the human world.”

"What shall we do about it"

"The monk came to seal it, then found the culprit behind the ghost tide, he was the spellcaster. As long as he dies, this place will be controlled... It would be best to disperse everyone here, or simply raze this place."

This is almost impossible. This densely populated area is home to many people, and the homeowners are all waiting for relocation and enrichment. The government also has a step-by-step development plan. How could it be possible to immediately disperse or demolish it

Although Shen Qingrui dresses like a typical office white-collar beauty, she doesn't hold back when it comes to spending money.

She walked alone into the courtyard, pulled out a peach wood hairpin from her bun and pinched it to force back the black mist. She pasted talismans on the door of the house, and the black air that permeated the entire courtyard was confined inside the room. From the outside, things looked much better.

"Someone needs to be stationed here day and night. No one can enter until the problem is solved, and the Shen family will also take turns guarding it." Shen Qingrui told my uncle.

My uncle frowned and asked, "Who are you to the Shen family"

"Shen Qingrui, the next head of the family." She replied arrogantly.

Old Madam Shen had already designated her successor, just to prevent trouble from arising in Huangdao Village and her inability to return. Although the old woman was disagreeable, she still possessed some grace in this matter.

"Alright." My uncle nodded and told someone to inform the landlord that this little courtyard and the hut opposite, where that woman lived, were requisitioned.

The landlord, afraid of being held liable, readily agreed with a simple nod.

When we got home, Old Man Chen, who was cleaning the backyard, casually asked, "Where did you young masters go"

"Hui Long Village... Damn, I need to take an aloe bath immediately."

"Huh Where to" Old Man Chen was taken aback: "What are you going to Huilong Village for"

“You know this place” I heard the surprise in his voice.

"Um, um...I, I know..." Old Man Chen stammered.

This definitely suggests something is amiss, could there be a mole among us!

"Old geezer, come clean! How did you know about Huilong Village We've never even heard of it. How could an outsider like you possibly know" I pressed him.

"Old Man Chen chuckled and said, “Lady Hero, I just heard it from the villagers…”

"Have you been there!"

"Go, gone..." His voice was so small, like a mosquito.

"Where are you going If you don't tell the truth, I'll throw you out right now!" My brother grabbed him by the back of his neck.

Old Chen hunched his neck and muttered, "...that is, I, I didn't find a woman to give birth to a child for me before... I came here from my hometown, that woman said she wasn't comfortable being alone in the countryside, so she asked me to find her a place to live, letting her give birth to the child here...I, I was also afraid my wife would go and beat her up, so I agreed."

"Then what" I looked at the old geezer with disdain. I'd kick him out when my dad got back.

Then I learned from a fellow villager that the place was cheap, only 200 yuan a month in rent. I still needed to save money for her hard work, so I settled her there. Anyway, she didn't mind living in a rundown place.

"...You live with her" I glared at Old Chen.

"No! No! There's no way I could live with her! She'd just be asking me for money all day long! I'm already crammed in a work shed with a fellow villager!" Old Man Chen waved his hands frantically.

My brother rolled his eyes and dismissed Old Chen, saying: "You old fool, are you really serious Would you dare raise a child born from this woman Don't even think about it! The kid would be sick from birth! She doesn't want your money, so how does she make a living Plenty of other men are out there, idiot!"

Old Chen frowned and said, "Well, no one else is willing to have a child for me…"

"You might just be a cheapskate dad." I rolled my eyes at him and pulled Jiang Qiyun upstairs.

I was just teasing him, but it turns out Old Chen was actually worried about this too. He stood outside my back alley for a while, smoked two cigarettes, then hurried off.

My brother said not to worry about him, that old geezer is definitely going back to live with that woman. But he'd be lucky if she took him! What a cheap little thing, how many men does she see in a day! Who knows which one of them got her pregnant first

When I was soaking in the bath, I touched my little belly. Other people are so eager to have children, but my child is going to be treated as a sacrifice, what a wretch!

When I came out of the shower, Jiang Qiyun was gone. My phone on the bedside table vibrated incessantly with an unknown number.

"Hello"

"Hey…hey! Miss Heroine! You you you, you're the kindest one! Please, come quickly and save me!" Old Man Chen's voice rang out over there.

"...Where are you Call 110 or 120 yourself."

"No, it's me, I'm in Dongxiang, Huilong Village—" Before he could finish his sentence, the phone suddenly rang loudly. I held it to my ear for a long time, but there was no answer from the other end.t hurt someone and abandon their body in the wilderness, did you""Hee hee... You can just see for yourselves..." The village head pointed forward, and I saw from between the trees a patch of glistenin...
