Su Tiantian is only five years old, so it's normal that such a young child can't understand much.

Therefore, no one suspected Lin the Blind's words. Seeing that they couldn't get any information out of him, they stopped asking. When the stretcher and the car arrived, the village chief came in person and together with about ten men from the village, they took Fu Qingqiu and the other three to a hospital in the province.

Some people also called Bo En.

Soon the old Bo family house was deserted.

Su Tiantian and Lin Xiazi returned to the hotel.

"Go to sleep for a while, we'll move out when it gets dark."

Lin the Blind knew that Su Tiantian was tired and had already gone to sleep after Bai Meng returned.

Su Tiantian fell asleep holding Bai Meng.

She didn't know how long she had slept. When Lin the Blind woke her up, it was already dark. All around was quiet, obviously it was the middle of the night, everyone was asleep, and all was silent.

Bai Meng opened her eyes, but even moving her foot caused excruciating pain, and she still couldn't stand up.

“Sweetie, I’m too old. I won’t go if this old man is around.”

Bai Meng brushed Su Tiantian's little hand with her tail.

Su Tiantian nodded: "Aunt Mengmeng, you should rest well. I'll take out that scoundrel snake's inner core to help you recover!"

She wasn't stupid; she knew Bai Meng must be injured.

But all of this is not a problem for her except for the black snake, whose thousand-year-old inner core is a great tonic for Bai Meng.

Bai Meng smiled as soon as she heard this, feeling a warm glow in her heart.

"Okay, I'll wait."

Bai Meng couldn't help but press her head against Su Tiantian's again, thinking, "Sweetie, you're such a good baby."

Su Tiantian and Blind Lin left the hotel, and Su Tiantian led Blind Lin toward the old Bo family house.

The only sounds in the quiet night are the chirping of insects, but even that disappears on the road leading to the old Bo family house.

The room was closed.

Lin the Blind took out a talisman and burned it. The smoke circled the Bo family's house, but a wisp of smoke, thinner than a hair, separated and went into the darkness.

"Nobody here?"

"This is impossible! I can't find any viewers," Lin the Blind Man said, his face filled with disbelief.

Bo Baozhu must be in this old house.

Judging from the age of the house, it is indeed an old house.

But how could it be possible without people?

"The person isn't here; they're on the mountain."

Su Tiantian used her divine sense to smell, and only then could she detect a faint trace of human presence, but the scent headed into the mountains.

"Let's go up the mountain."

Lin the Blind made his decision without hesitation.

Bo Lai and Yang Juan don't have much time left to live, and Bo Baozhu certainly doesn't have many days left either.

The stronger the aura of death on a person, the more difficult it is to find them.

A moment earlier or a moment later could lead to significant changes.

They were using an S-grade missing person talisman, yet he couldn't smell or sense it. It was only through Su Tiantian's extraordinary senses that he discovered the clue. He had no doubt that even Su Tiantian wouldn't be able to sense it by dawn.

The master and his apprentice slowly climbed the mountain.

Unbeknownst to them, a hunched, ghostly figure slowly followed behind them.

Yang Juan's journey was arduous; she didn't arrive until it was dark.

My mother-in-law should be asleep by now, but for some reason, tonight seems a little different.

When Blind Lin and his apprentice arrived, Yang Juan had been observing them from the shadows.

Seeing them light a talisman, Yang Juan couldn't help but feel hopeful. They hadn't lied to her; they really had come to find her Baozhu.

God, open your eyes! Where is my precious pearl?

Yang Juan didn't dare to blink, but she soon noticed that the master and apprentice whispered something to each other and then actually went up the mountain.

Yang Juan's legs were trembling, but she gritted her teeth and followed.

In the past, whenever they were scammed, these two would personally follow them. But this time, even though they had clearly refused, the two still came here to look for Bo Baozhu.

The road up the mountain is well-maintained and not difficult to walk, but visibility is obstructed after dark, making the road more challenging.

Yang Juan couldn't keep up, but she firmly remembered the direction they were going. Suddenly, Yang Juan stopped.

That place... that's the direction of the Bo family's old graves.

...

"This place is getting increasingly gloomy."

Lin the Blind spoke in a low voice.

"Yes, we passed many graves all around, but the presence of the graves kept lingering ahead, almost disappearing."

Su Tiantian's eyesight is unaffected; she can see the tombstones on the roadside very clearly.

"There are many graves belonging to the Bo family. It seems there's something wrong with the Bo family's ancestral graves."

Lin the Blind Man quickly connected the dots to one of the attractions the hotel owner had mentioned.

The old graves of the Bo family.

This place has excellent feng shui for burial sites; the graves of the Bo family's ancestors must have the best feng shui.

After walking for a while, Su Tiantian said, "Master, it's just ahead. I see that tree shaped like a human. It really looks like a person."

In the darkness, the tree was very tall, its canopy like a large umbrella, and its trunk like a three-meter-tall giant with a round head. Two branches grew down from below, hanging down like arms, and the roots split into two, like a person's legs digging into the soil.

"How strange, I can't sense anything here, all the presence is gone."

Su Tiantian could neither smell nor sense it anymore, but she had clearly been watching the trail of that wisp of blue smoke just moments before.

“The Bo family’s bloodline could not have gone to another family. It’s okay that we can’t see it now. It must be related to that grave.”

Once he got here, Blind Lin was no longer worried about not being able to find his way.

Bo Baozhu wasn't hidden in the old Bo family house, but actually in this cemetery. Even Blind Lin couldn't imagine what that situation would be like.

As they drew closer, they were less than twenty meters away from the Bo family's old grave.

Su Tiantian suddenly grabbed Lin the Blind: "Master, wait, that tree moved."

That peculiar human-shaped tree did indeed move.

The paper strips in his hands stretched out strangely and stabbed fiercely towards Su Tiantian and Blind Lin.

"Boom!"

A thunderclap boomed and struck the tree branch.

Purple lightning ignited the branches, and the purple flames burned along the branches toward the tree trunk.

The human-shaped tree was instantly engulfed in flames.

"ah--"

A piercing scream rang out, and Su Tiantian's eyes widened.

"Master, I used Purple Heavenly Lightning to burn the tree, and burned out a soul!"

Surprised, Su Tiantian immediately blew out a breath of spiritual energy to extinguish the flames on the soul's body. She felt no guilt in burning him, which meant that this soul was inherently sinful. She was punishing him on behalf of Heaven, but this soul must know the truth, and Su Tiantian didn't want to burn him to ashes.

Ask him clearly first before dealing with him.

The flames died down, the humanoid tree was destroyed, and the wisp of soul glared angrily at Blind Lin and Su Tiantian, letting out a shriek: "Who are you?"

In the past, everyone who came here met the same fate: they were drained of their life force and driven mad by fear. He protected the lifeblood of the Bo family and never made a mistake.

When he saw people coming today, and they kept staring at him, he immediately knew that they wanted to destroy the Bo family's energy. So he took action, but he didn't expect that a purple lightning bolt would appear out of nowhere, burning him painfully. The Zero Tree had already been burned down, and he was both angry and wary!

"And who are you? Why are you trapped here? I saved you and you didn't even say thank you. How rude!"

Su Tiantian retorted and condemned with righteous indignation.
