Chapter 109 109 Please...save me.
Painting and system actions are separated.
The system went to look for the trace of the second son of the Wei family, while Shi Hua observed around the Wei family to see if he could find any clues.
Although the Wei family's house was large, it was empty, making it convenient for her to search.
The rear house was almost deserted. Father Wei only had Madam Wei, and the Wei family only had two sons, Wei Shizhou and the second son of Wei. Now that the Wei couple had passed away and Wei Shizhou had become a disciple to cultivate immortality, the huge Wei family was left with only the second son of Wei.
Shi Hua used his spiritual sense to explore everywhere, but found nothing unusual.
It seems that I still need to go to the main hall to find out.
[Immortal Venerable, I can't find Master Wei Er. It's as if he disappeared out of thin air, and the system can't detect his location.]
The system's detection function is almost impossible to avoid.
How did Master Wei Er do it, even the system couldn't find his trace?
Shi Hua frowned.
[Give me a little more time, Immortal Lord. I don't believe I can't catch him!]
The Immortal Lord finally gave it a task to do, but it couldn't even find anyone. How embarrassing!
It just doesn't believe it can't find anyone!
Shi Hua responded and went to the main hall.
She remembered that the coffins of the Wei couple were still placed in the main hall.
According to the account of the Second Young Master of Wei, the two elders had passed away many days ago, and even though the time for the vigil had passed, the coffins were still not buried.
Before coming to the Wei family, the people in the town seemed to be embarrassed. When they saw her stop at the gate of the Wei family, their faces changed drastically and they hid back home.
Funerals are always taboo, but this kind of taboo is too abnormal.
There is an evil aura everywhere in the Wei family.
Shi Hua walked into the main courtyard and looked up to see the red lanterns hanging under the eaves.
The fiery red candlelight reflected the night, emitting an eerie glow.
There are still white lanterns here during the day.
Shi Hua ignored it, walked to the spirit tablet, and looked carefully at the words engraved on it. The font was crooked and there were scratches on the edge, which was caused by a mistake.
Obviously, this tablet was not specially carved by someone, and it is very likely that the words were carved by the second son of the Wei family himself.
The Wei family is not short of money, but for taboo things like memorial tablets, most people would ask someone to carve words on them.
Shi Hua lowered his head and moved closer to the incense on the table.
Very ordinary fragrance, no problem.
After checking everywhere, only the two coffins in the main hall were left.
Shi Hua whispered "I'm sorry" and prepared to open the coffin.
[Immortal Lord, I found him. He is right in front of you!]
A chill ran up from the soles of my feet.
The danger alarm sounded.
Shi Hua's eyes suddenly darkened. He quickly retreated to distance himself from the two coffins and retreated into the empty yard.
And where she had just stood, a dark mass of liquid-like substance appeared.
"Second Master Wei."
A human-shaped liquid emerged from the black mass.
The face of Master Wei Er appeared in the black liquid.
"Miss Shi Hua, why aren't you sleeping so late?"
He seemed unaware, his face still maintaining the smile he had during the day, but his body was covered in black, sticky liquid.
Shi Hua stared at the black liquid and felt that it looked familiar.
She had only seen this disgusting, sticky, liquid-like substance on one person—Tu Ye.
Isn’t that guy in the Fox Clan?
She did not feel Tu Ye's presence in the Wei family.
"Miss Shi Hua, why don't you speak?"
The Second Young Master Wei looked at her kindly.
"Second Master Wei, why aren't you asleep so late?"
His right hand was quietly behind his back.
A strand of almost transparent silk thread flowed out from the fingertips, quickly left the Wei family, and flew towards Yun Yao.
Young Master Wei Er moved his lower body towards her.
"I should sleep, but Miss Shi Hua didn't listen to me and was still running around at night."
Shi Hua held the Qingshuang Sword and frowned coldly: "Second Master Wei, now that things have come to this, there is no need to pretend."
The power of the Qingshuang Sword is so frightening even when it is not moving.
Young Master Wei Er was afraid of it and stopped where he was. He glared at her fiercely and his lower body returned to its original appearance.
"Who are you?"
Shi Hua was surprised: "Didn't the person behind you tell you about me?"
Knowing her name but not her identity is not like Tu Ye's style.
If it was really related to Tu Ye, he would want to tell others how much he hated Shi Hua and wanted to get rid of him.
Did she guess wrong?
"What do you mean by someone behind the scenes?" Young Master Wei's eyes darkened. "I treat you with courtesy because I consider you my brother's sweetheart. If you don't understand, don't blame me for being rude!"
Wei Shizhou is indeed at the Wei family!
"Where is Wei Shizhou?"
The Second Young Master Wei immediately became alert: "Don't even think about taking my brother away!"
When talking about Wei Shizhou, his expression became strange, with signs of going crazy, and the evil aura became even stronger.
There is only one possibility for a mortal body to be possessed by evil spirits - after death, the obsession will not dissipate, the soul will be possessed by evil spirits, and will be trapped in a small space, unable to reincarnate forever.
[Immortal Venerable means that the Second Young Master Wei is already dead?]
It's very likely.
He was influenced by Tu Ye's demonic power and might have come into contact with Tu Ye before his death.
[So what should we do now? Kill him? ]
Shi Hua dodged his attack by turning sideways, turned his wrist and swung out a sword to block the attack of Master Wei Er, and with the help of his strength, he pried open the coffins on both sides with one sword.
Bang!
The coffin lid fell to the ground, raising a cloud of gray smoke.
In an instant, the disgusting smell of decay and stench filled the air. The second son of the Wei family was furious. He rushed to the side of the coffin, staggered to his knees, and his eyes were terribly red.
"No!"
"You deserve to die! I'm going to kill you!"
The system took the opportunity to take a look.
[Eh, what is this? It's disgusting. It doesn't look like a corpse.]
It was indeed not a corpse, but the internal organs of a monster.
The wood used for the coffin can cover up the fishy and rotten smell of the internal organs. If Shi Hua hadn't opened the coffin lid, no one would have thought that the coffin would contain the internal organs of a monster.
Shi Hua frowned: "Isn't this a cenotaph?"
The second son of the Wei family had tears in his eyes. He stared at the two coffins and burst into tears.
"Why... why... can't you just let us go... I can't find my father and mother's bodies, and these beasts must have eaten them... Then I have no choice but to kill them and take their organs to offer sacrifice to my father and mother."
The death of the Wei couple was similar to what he had said before, the only difference was the cause of death.
The caravan was attacked by their colleagues. They were jealous of Wei's father for getting such a lucrative deal, and driven by profit, they teamed up to tamper with the caravan's vehicles.
Butterfly powder is difficult to detect, so they smeared it on the car and calculated the time so that they would be on their way home when the butterfly powder would have almost evaporated and would attract monsters.
The attacking monster was not the Hundred-Faced Ape, it was just a cover.
Those who killed my father and mother, Master Wei II has personally sent them to hell, and no one will have an easy life!
Shi Hua raised his hand and closed the coffin.
"The monsters summoned by the butterfly powder are almost in groups. How can a mere mortal like you fight against them?"
Young Master Wei Er smiled foolishly, his tear-red eyes filled with despair, and his lower body began to liquefy again, curling into a ball.
"How can I gamble? I can't kill them at all, so I won't be willing to die..."
Tears and snot mixed on the pale face.
Later, he did lead a team to look for the two elders of the Wei family. The place where the caravan was attacked was still there, with broken wheel tracks and dark red soil, but there was no corpse, only scattered scraps of cloth.
Monsters eat people.
When attacked by hordes of monsters, not a single drop of dust will be left.
Shi Hua listened to his statement quietly.
"So you're dead? You haven't seen Tu Ye?"
"Who is Tu Ye? I don't remember. Those who killed my father and mother are dead. I'm completely desperate. Why would I want to live anymore? At worst, I'll die, and I can die with them..."
The second son of the Wei family knew very well that he and Wei Shizhou were from two different worlds.
When I grew up, I learned to keep my obsession with my brother deep in my heart.
Faced with the death of his loved ones, he chose to commit suicide.
The moment the monster's sharp teeth pierced through his chest, the breath of death enveloped him, but he only felt refreshed, thinking that he would soon be reunited with his father and mother.
However, the monster died.
He died unexpectedly in front of him.
The second young master of Wei was stunned.
Someone kicked away the monster that was pressing on him. Against the light, the face was blurry, but he clearly remembered that the other party seemed to have a pair of ears on its head.
"Hey, is he dead?"
He was in so much pain that he couldn't speak. Tu Ye scratched his ears irritably, "It stinks! These guys really deserve to be punished. I said I want to eat people, so get out of here!"
At that moment, the second son of the Wei family inexplicably had the urge to live.
"Please...save me."
"Huh? Save you? I'm a fox demon. I can only kill people, not save them. You mortals are really funny. You might as well ask me to kill you."
Tu Ye opened his five fingers, and the sticky demonic power flowed into his body, quickly controlling his limbs.
"Tsk, why does your face look so familiar to me... Yes! Like that damn Wei Shizhou's face! I've changed my mind. I want your body. I want to make you my puppet and disgust them to death!"
When he suddenly heard his brother's name, a faint hope appeared in the eyes of Master Wei Er.
"I can give you my body... Just give me some time to bury my father and mother..."
Tu Ye frowned in annoyance. He didn't want his puppet to retain even a trace of consciousness. It was obvious that Young Master Wei Er was too obsessed, and even killing him would be of no use.
So it was rare for him to be kind.
"Okay, I'll give you some time. You're inside my body and my demonic power is affecting you. You can't escape. Come back here after you're done."
Young Master Wei Er’s last consciousness stopped here.
Then it fell into endless darkness.
Shi Hua was certain that the man was Tu Ye. If it weren't for the influence of Tu Ye's demonic power, Young Master Wei would have died long ago with the fatal injuries on his body.
Tu Ye did a half-good thing.
"Your obsession is to bury them, so why did you attack Wei Shizhou?"
"Attack...brother?"
The second son of the Wei family looked confused. "Brother is back? Where is he? No! You lied to me! Brother can't be back! He won't come back!"
The viscous black liquid spurted out radially.
Crackling and shooting through the surrounding ornaments.
The more excited he became, the more the black liquid would get out of control and attack indiscriminately and unconsciously.
Shi Hua touched the ground with his toes, turned over and jumped onto the roof.
When mortals are affected by powerful demonic powers, they will gradually lose their minds. The condition of Master Wei Er is the beginning of losing their minds.
[Immortal Venerable, I found the location of the male protagonist! ]
Young Master Wei Er broke down emotionally, and the thing that was covering up his breath disappeared.
Wei Shizhou's location was under a huge banyan tree in the center of the backyard!
