In the gray fog.
Steward Liu, Master Tianji, and their senior brother were all on the verge of death.
They have been trapped in the gray fog for more than ten days.
Although they had no shortage of food and plenty of time to rest.
However, for more than ten days, there was no sunlight, no light, and nothing could be seen around us. There was no electricity, no sound, no signal, and no internet...
Such an environment and lifestyle are enough to completely wear down their spirit and energy...
They also tried exercising in the fog.
But that's only a temporary solution; it won't work forever...
“Master, I can’t take it anymore…” The usually optimistic senior brother cried. “If this continues, I’m going to break down.”
"Please think of a way, I'll do anything to get me out of here..."
After a moment of silence, Master Tianji said, "Didn't President Sheng say that before?"
"If we are seriously injured or seriously ill, Miss Wu may let us go out for treatment."
"Why don't you make yourself more sick and see if you can leave..."
The senior brother gritted his teeth, a ruthless glint flashing in his eyes.
"I...I stabbed myself, severely injuring myself..."
"If I can get out, Master, you can learn from me again..."
After saying that, he pulled out a small knife and stabbed it into his left abdomen.
"so……"
"Should we be able to get out now?"
Butler Liu closed his eyes and said calmly, "Why doesn't the master tell my senior brother's fortune and see what his fate will be?"
Master Tianji has been trapped in the gray fog for so long, his condition is already terrible.
Correspondingly, his fortune-telling ability also declined.
Therefore, he rarely told fortunes for Steward Liu and his senior brother during this period.
At this moment, he mustered his strength, took out the tortoise shell, sat on the ground, counted on his fingers with one hand and played with the tortoise shell with the other, muttering incantations...
Then he threw the tortoise shell on the ground...
"well……"
He sighed deeply.
"I still can't see anything..."
During this period, he consulted several fortune tellers, and the results were always the same.
This means that my senior's fate will probably not change much.
The senior brother clutched the wound on his stomach and cried, "Am I really going to die here?"
"Not necessarily." Master Tianji shook his head. "If your fate is death, I should be able to see your death."
"But I didn't see it..."
Butler Liu spoke up again: "There's another way."
"This method should be more effective than injury or illness."
Hope ignited in the senior's eyes: "Please tell me."
Butler Liu: "Miss Fifth has always been law-abiding and has no understanding of illegal or criminal behavior."
"If we break the law and commit crimes, as long as we are willing to turn ourselves in, Miss Wu should let us go."
Master Tianji and his senior brother exchanged a complex look...
"But...but if I do this, I'll go to jail, right?" the senior brother stammered. "I...I don't want to go to jail..."
Butler Liu said calmly, "Then let me go to jail."
After saying that, he pulled out the small knife from his senior brother's left abdomen and stabbed it fiercely into the right chest of the Taoist Master Tianji.
He didn't stab very deeply.
But he stabbed her three times in a row.
Every cut draws blood...
The pain was so intense that Master Tianji almost fainted.
Not only that.
Butler Liu also snatched the jade pendant that Master Tianji always wore, threw it on the ground, and stomped on it until it was smashed to pieces.
Master Tianji looked at it with heartache: "My jade pendant! This is a sacred object of metaphysics, it has been with me for nearly a hundred years..."
Butler Liu showed no remorse whatsoever. He simply raised his hand and loudly proclaimed, "Fifth Miss, I deliberately stabbed Master Tianji and damaged his treasures."
"It can be said that I have committed the crimes of intentional injury and damage to other people's property, which are not minor offenses."
"I'm going to turn myself in!"
"Please let me out."
"In addition, Master Tianji and my senior brother are both seriously injured and need treatment. I hope you will let me out."
The words had barely left his mouth.
The fog before his eyes slowly dissipated, revealing a narrow path.
The path seemed to lead to the villa's gate...
Master Tianji and his senior brother were both stunned. They helped each other and quickly followed him out.
The trip went very smoothly...
They found the exit, saw the gate, and saw the astonished police officers outside the gate.
Butler Liu raised his hands, walked out the door, confessed his crimes, and asked the police officers to take him to the police station.
Master Tianji and his senior brother also stepped out of the gate, thanks to his influence.
only……
Master Tianji and his senior brother were shrouded in a faint gray mist, as if Sheng Ai was still watching them...
They were horrified, knowing that Sheng Ai had no intention of letting them go.
In his fear, the senior apprentice recalled the divination his master had just performed for him, and seeing that Steward Liu was free of the gray mist, a ruthless thought arose in his heart.
To completely get rid of Sheng Ai, he went all out...
"Steward Liu, you've injured my master so badly, I won't let you get away with this!"
After saying that, he grabbed the pot of mung bean soup that the police officer had just boiled on the table and splashed it on Butler Liu's neck and back...
Butler Liu let out a painful scream and fell to the ground, the skin on his neck turning completely red...
Seeing this, Master Tianji was inspired. He took out a pair of scissors from his magic bag and plunged them into Steward Liu's thigh...
Because it happened suddenly.
He stabbed twice before being subdued by the police.
He must have punctured a major blood vessel; Steward Liu bled profusely and quickly fell into a coma…
Instead of feeling remorse, Master Tianji burst into laughter: "Steward Liu, you bastard, I've had my eye on you for a long time!"
"If I don't cripple you, I'm not a master..."
Judging from the outcome, he will likely be sentenced.
My senior brother is the same...
Then the master and apprentice looked at each other, both with victorious smiles on their faces.
Because the gray mist that had been clinging to them had disappeared...
The police officers looked at the group of people and kept shaking their heads.
This is insane!
All three of them have gone mad!
Sure enough, who wouldn't go crazy after spending so many days in such a bizarre fog?
The housekeeper and two others got into an ambulance and were taken to the hospital for emergency treatment.
What awaits them after their injuries heal is arrest, interrogation, sentencing, and imprisonment...
Shortly after the three were taken away.
A black SUV sped towards us.
Shi Jiu got out of the car and stepped into the villa gate alone.
He walked slowly through the fog, without getting lost, until he reached the main building entrance and pressed the doorbell.
"Miss Ai—"
He said gently, "I have something important to discuss with you. May I come in?"
Logically speaking...
No one will open the door for him.
However, a moment later...
The front door slowly opened.
Sheng Ai, with long hair flowing down her shoulders, barefoot, and wearing a white dress, appeared behind the door with a faint smile on her face, just as she had in life: "So it's Mr. Shi, please come in."
Shi Jiu stepped into the Sheng family hall, following behind Sheng Ai.
Sheng Ai looks exactly like a living person.
But she had no shadow...
Under the light, its body appeared translucent...
