My emotions were actually shaken a little at this moment; I wasn't like this before.

They gradually developed some of their own emotions, just like normal people.

At this moment, I thought of many people. I missed Master Jin, I missed Lao Luo, I missed Su Mingyang, and most importantly, I missed my grandfather.

When Zhang Yongnian turned around and saw me like this, he couldn't help but laugh.

"It seems your emotions have recovered a bit!"

Zhang Yongnian commented.

I also find it a bit unbelievable. I really didn't expect that my emotions would recover to some extent one day. Does that mean that my earth spirit will also return?

"It's not that simple! It will take a very, very long time to restore the Earth Soul!"

Zhang Yongnian immediately saw through my thoughts and poured cold water on them.

"Take this compass and go inside. Cooperate with me if necessary!"

Zhang Yongnian didn't even look up before giving me orders.

What surprised me was that Zhang Yongnian didn't seem to be trying to avoid the nanny at all.

He said all of these things in front of the nanny.

"Senior! What happened to this family? Why did you have to make such a fuss?"

As I followed closely behind, I whispered a question to Zhang Yongnian.

This family doesn't look ordinary either.

There must be a reason why Zhang Yongnian went to such lengths to come.

"Wang Ma, please speak to this Master Chen!"

Zhang Yongnian called out to the nanny, who had been holding clothes, and immediately stopped when she heard what Zhang Yongnian said.

Zhang Yongnian didn't introduce me earlier, so the nanny's attitude towards me was lukewarm.

This time, when Zhang Yongnian called me "Master," the nanny's attitude immediately changed.

"So it's Master Chen! You don't know this, but our house is haunted!"

Every night around nine o'clock, I can hear ghostly sounds; it's really creepy!

When Wang Ma mentioned the ghost, her voice trembled slightly, and her expression became stiff.

In other words, Wang Ma must have met her before, or at least had indirect contact with her.

"So, senior, you sent me and Old Knife here so that I could help you get rid of this ghost, is that right?"

I didn't continue what Wang Ma was saying, but instead asked Zhang Yongnian.

That old bastard's got a good plan; he actually wants me and Lao Dao to do the hard labor for him.

"I need your help to suppress this! My strength alone is not enough!"

Zhang Yongnian's tone was solemn.

Seeing how calm Zhang Yongnian was, I also put away my playful attitude.

"Is the thing inside that powerful?"

I find it a bit unbelievable. Before I came here, I could handle all kinds of ghosts, big and small, but now that I'm here, I can't handle any of them.

"We'll know once we investigate. I have no idea about the specifics right now!"

Zhang Yongnian's deadpan expression of "I have nothing to say" made me want to stomp my feet in frustration.

I had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow Zhang Yongnian inside.

At that moment, I suddenly felt an extremely powerful obsession directly impacting my compass.

This obsession is also tinged with a faint aura of death, which must be because someone had some unfulfilled wish before they died.

This family is really something else.

My mother continued to lead the way, and when Wang Ma was some distance away from us, Zhang Yongnian began to explain things to us.

"I just took on this task myself. I don't know the specifics yet, but it feels a bit eerie, and I can't handle it alone!"

I don't believe a single punctuation mark of Zhang Yongnian's reasoning.

What a joke! I had no idea he was so well-prepared, and that he drove for over an hour to get here.

“I just sensed a strong obsession and resentment. Someone must have died in this courtyard, and they must have been wrongfully killed.”

After thinking for a moment, I told Zhang Yongnian everything I had perceived.

Before Zhang Yongnian could speak, Lao Dao, who was standing to the side, started to jump in surprise.

"Damn, Brother Chen, you said it's some kind of obsession, could it be because a bunch of people died underground?"

Although Lao Dao is blind, it doesn't affect his ability to urinate.

I glanced at Lao Dao's pants, and wow, they were wet again after just one moment.

"There are quite a few obsessions; what you're saying is actually quite possible!"

I closed my eyes and sensed it; the obsession I had just experienced was a combination of many obsessions, an enhanced version.

What Old Dao said might actually be true.

Wang Ma was like a puppet, leading the way without taking care of the three of us. There was a huge courtyard as soon as we entered through the gate.

This courtyard is teeming with flowers and birds, lush with trees, and most importantly, it is a huge garden in a Western style.

However, the room's structure is Chinese-style, as is the main entrance.

I activated my third eye and carefully observed the garden in the courtyard, but to my surprise, there was nothing unusual about it.

This courtyard is eerily harmonious.

Zhang Yongnian and I quickened our pace and hurried into the stairwell to catch up with Wang Ma.

Finally, we arrived at the second floor. In the lobby, we saw a middle-aged man wearing a Zhongshan suit. This retro style is quite rare.

"We've finally managed to invite you here, Master Zhang!"

Upon seeing Zhang Yongnian approach, the middle-aged man in the Zhongshan suit quickly removed his top hat and bowed deeply to Zhang Yongnian.

"Let me introduce you. This is our big spender this time, Cao... you can call him Old Cao!"

Zhang Yongnian clearly didn't remember Lao Cao's name, but Lao Cao next to him didn't seem embarrassed at all.

"Hello, Lao Cao! Hello, Lao Cao! Just call me Lao Cao!"

Old Cao chuckled and said, then looked at me and Old Dao: "Oh my, these two are masters too!"

With that one "Aiyo wei," he immediately brought out the Beijing accent.

I can't help but give it a thumbs up and say it's truly authentic!

Old Dao, on the other hand, straightened his neck and pretended to be a master.

Suddenly I remembered my third eye, so I used it to look at Lao Cao.

You wouldn't believe it until you see it, and what you find is shocking—it's on Old Cao.

There was a pale-skinned young woman lying there, who looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old.

Besides this girl, Lao Cao also had many severed arms and legs.

Seeing this, I couldn't help but gasp.

Don't let Old Cao's respectable appearance fool you; you'd never guess he was doing this kind of work behind the scenes.

"Old Cao, do you feel like you can't breathe when you sleep at night?"

I suddenly spoke up.

After listening, Lao Cao looked at me with doubt: "No, Master! I feel that I can breathe very smoothly, and I sleep quite well every day!"

I found it a bit unbelievable because the girl was holding Lao Cao's neck tightly with her hand.

At this rate, they'll definitely suffocate!
