The guard was hit hard on the chest and fell backward to the ground.
In an instant, Qin Yuesheng didn't know whether it was due to dizziness or what, but he saw a blurry white face suddenly float out of the security guard's head, then entered the body of a woman passing by, and then quickly disappeared in the crowd. Even if Qin Yuesheng wanted to find it, there was no way.
"What is that thing?"
Du Beilun asked hurriedly, "Yuesheng, are you okay? Are you not hurt? Why don't we go in in the carriage? It's too dangerous to walk. We might even lose our lives."
Qin Yuesheng had no time to pay attention to him. This incident had only happened for a few dozen breaths, but there were continuous strange changes. It was obvious that there was definitely some problem in the dark.
He believed in the loyalty of the Qin Mansion's guards, and the reason why they suddenly drew their swords against him was probably largely because of the white face just now.
"After that skinny man was killed, the security guards started having problems. And after I knocked the security guards down, that face attached itself to someone else." Qin Yuesheng touched the jade pendant on his waist and thought to himself, "It seems they're all possessed by that face."
Although Qin Yuesheng had long known that the world was probably not very peaceful behind the scenes, he was still shocked when the strange events actually happened before his eyes.
"What's wrong with me?" The security guard who was knocked to the ground by Qin Yuesheng looked confused, but he had no idea what he had just done.
"Zhang Quan, are you crazy? What made you so brave that you attacked the young master just now?" The guard next to him shouted angrily.
"Hit the young master? I, I didn't. How could it be possible? Don't talk nonsense. How could I do such a thing?"
"You're still saying no, but everyone saw it just now. If the young master hadn't been so skilled and dodged quickly, you would have already injured him."
Qin Yuesheng waved his hand: "That's enough, don't say any more, this matter has nothing to do with him. Remember, after returning to the Qin Mansion, no one is allowed to tell anyone about this incident today. Just the few of you know it in your hearts. Do you understand? This is an order."
"Yes." Several guards responded immediately.
Considering that the white-faced person seemed to have the ability to possess and control other people's minds, Qin Yuesheng had no choice but to agree with Du Beilun's opinion. The two of them got into the carriage and used it for transportation.
There was only a maid from the Du family and Du Beilun in the carriage. Qin Yuesheng felt relieved because he thought that even if these two were possessed, they could not be his opponents.
On the way to Nanyan Baozhai, Du Beilun finally couldn't help but ask, "Yuesheng, what exactly happened just now? And when did your skills become so good that you could even knock down a guard?"
"Don't ask. If you ask, I'll just say I've practiced it before." Qin Yuesheng reached out to lift the carriage curtain and looked outside. "Do you know about the Lu family incident? I heard from the servants that a young master of the Lu family went to Fu'an Hutong at night and disappeared."
This topic immediately caught Du Beilun's curiosity, so much so that he put aside everything he had just said. He excitedly said, "Of course I know. It's Lu Cheng, the third son of the Lu family. He does nothing every day but likes to wander around Qingyang City with his vicious dog. You should know him, right?"
"No impression. Have I ever had a drink with him before?"
"Probably not. This guy likes dogs more than women. His family built him a large courtyard just for him, all for raising dogs. Since he smells strongly of urine, I've never really liked asking him to join the group."
"Is the reason for the disappearance because of Fu'an Hutong? Is that hutong really that evil?" Qin Yuesheng asked curiously.
Du Belen immediately pursed his lips, his face excited, and smacked his lips, saying, "Of course not. Fu'an Hutong is a well-known evil place in Qingyang City. Few people dare to go there during the day, and at night, people are always found dead. The government office has invited many Taoist priests and monks to perform rituals there before, but they never seem to have any real effect. On the contrary, some Taoist priests refused to believe in evil and insisted on performing rituals at night, and as a result, people were found dead again the next day."
Qin Yuesheng asked, "Was the alley so strange from the beginning, or did something happen later that made it so strange?"
"Then I'm not sure. It seems no one can really say for sure. I haven't heard any news about this."
Qin Yuesheng sighed: "This world is not peaceful."
Relying on a horse-drawn carriage, the group quickly arrived at Nanyan Baozhai, the restaurant run by Du Tankang, the second son of the Du family.
As expected of a rich family kid, the three-story Baozhai he opened has an elegant and refined exterior architectural style. The simple black and white colors look like ink paintings, and also contain the principles of Tai Chi Yin and Yang. It is obvious that he paid someone to design it.
Combined with the name Nanyan Baozhai, they seem to echo each other.
As soon as he got off the car, he saw that there were already many guests in the treasure house. Qin Yuesheng was late, so he walked into the house with Du Beilun. Without Du Beilun's greeting, a young man in a pure white robe with gold edges and black bamboo patterns came up with a smile. It was Du Beilun's second brother, Du Tankang.
"Yuesheng, I've been waiting for you for a long time. Now I finally see you. It's no exaggeration to say that if you hadn't come to Nanyan Baozhai today, my shop would have been open for nothing on the first day."
The guests nearby glanced over here briefly, but when they heard Du Tankang's words, their expressions didn't change, as if they were already used to it.
"You're welcome, Brother Tan Kang, you know I always deal with things objectively, not people. If there isn't anything I like in your store today, I will turn around and leave even though I'm here." Qin Yuesheng said with a smile.
