Even though Fan Zhiyi still had many things he wanted to ask, Qian Hu obviously didn't want to say anything more to him. Or rather, he had already said everything he wanted to say and knew everything he wanted to know, so he said goodbye to Fan Zhiyi and left.
The night was unusually peaceful and nothing happened.
Early the next morning, everyone from Tianyunmen gathered together to discuss how to deal with the situation. Of course, they could not remain in this passive state and wait for the possessed person to appear, and do nothing else.
In addition to discussing Qian Hu yesterday, they also checked the death list here in the past month, including suicides, homicides, and various accidental deaths, but no matter how they investigated, the deaths of these people had nothing to do with Qian Hu.
At that time, Lu Changfu and others used magic to search very quickly. Before Fan Zhiyi had finished flipping through one record book, they had already read several.
During this period, they did not ask or pay any attention to Fan Zhiyi, and even read the book that Fan Zhiyi had already looked up again. They did not hide their targeting and distrust of Fan Zhiyi, and Lu Changfu did not stop them. Xu Qing might have been a little unable to bear it and wanted to say something, but in the end she did not speak.
In this case, Fan Zhiyi felt that there was no point in staying here any longer. He couldn't help much anyway, so he went back to Qian's house early yesterday.
Today, under the arrangement of Lu Changfu, they went to ask the possessed women about some specific circumstances, and then summarized them to Lu Changfu. Before dark, they finally found some clues. They drew the walking paths of these women after being possessed on the map and found that they all came to the Qian Mansion from the same route.
In short, there is only one route from being possessed to walking to the Qian Mansion, so if they want to see ghosts, they logically need to pay more attention to this route.
After the summary, the time was just right, and Lu Changfu immediately arranged to secretly block the route forward and backward. Xu Qing, the only girl in the team, was used as bait, wandering back and forth on the road, trying to lure out the ghost, but there was still no movement.
They continued for three days without any progress, and the incident of the possessed person causing trouble at the door did not happen again. The ghost seemed to know they were coming and deliberately hid away.
When they were on standby again tonight, the others were fine as cultivators, but Fan Zhiyi was an ordinary person who couldn't sleep well during the day and stayed up late at night. His body couldn't bear it at all. There was a big dark circle under his eyelids, he yawned constantly, and he looked haggard, looking dozens of years older.
In order not to hold others back, Fan Zhiyi didn't say anything. If he didn't say anything, then naturally others wouldn't say something considerate to let him rest. And even if Fan Zhiyi did say something, these people would most likely choose to ignore him.
But in the end, Xu Qing couldn't bear it anymore. Perhaps it was because Fan Zhiyi's dying state was too annoying, so Xu Qing took the initiative to speak to Fan Zhiyi for the first time before setting off as bait: "Fan Zhiyi, you should go back and rest tonight."
Fan Zhiyi also wanted to, but his physical condition was so weak now. If he went back alone, he might be targeted by ghosts in minutes.
Fan Zhiyi waved his hand, politely declining. One of the other disciples said unhappily, "You look half dead. If a fight breaks out, will you be able to escape? If anything really happens, Senior Brother will probably blame us. I don't know why Senior Brother is suddenly so interested in you."
Fan Zhiyi has heard a lot of such remarks. When others treat him with malice, he responds with a smile. He is really a good person.
So Fan Zhiyi raised the corners of his mouth and gave them a sinister smile. With his current appearance, it really seemed like that, as if he was a mentally unstable guy who might go crazy at any time. The man was so frightened that he didn't say anything.
However, based on Bing Nandong's request, Lu Changfu decided: "Junior sister, you and Fan Zhiyi should go together. It's convenient for you to send him back."
"Okay." Xu Qing responded.
Since Mr. Lu had spoken, and Fan Zhiyi was indeed upset, he didn't refuse this time.
The streets were deserted and the weather was getting colder. Fan Zhiyi sniffed his nose and shivered with cold. He seriously suspected that he had caught a cold because he had lacked exercise recently.
But... Fan Zhiyi glanced at Xu Qing. The opportunity to be alone was hard to come by, and his physical discomfort was not a big problem!
So Fan Zhiyi tried to test it out first: "Um, Miss Xu."
Xu Qing thought the name was strange and looked at him without saying anything, waiting for Fan Zhiyi's next words.
Fan Zhiyi then continued, "Do you know..." Fan Zhiyi subconsciously touched his ear, feeling that no matter how he asked, it would be strange. He carefully considered his words, "Senior Brother once went to the cliff behind the bamboo forest..." He glanced at Xu Qing's expression as he spoke.
Fan Zhiyi didn't know how many people went to the back cliff of the bamboo forest every day, but it shouldn't be a big deal for Bing Nandong to go there occasionally, so perhaps he should have made it clearer.
But what was both unexpected and reasonable was that Xu Qing, who had been expressionless, suddenly frowned, a hint of anger on her face: "Why bring this up again? Senior Brother clearly said that this matter is over and will not be mentioned again."
It seems that something really happened, and it must be related to me. What did the original body do to Bing Nandong at that time?
If he continued to ask, Xu Qing would probably get angry, but he had missed this opportunity and didn't know when they would be alone together again. He really wanted to know, his damn curiosity was too strong.
Fan Zhiyi decided to take a chance: "I want to know what happened when I made an appointment with Senior Brother..."
"It's you!" Xu Qing's attitude changed drastically, hostility rising in her eyes, and she stopped in her tracks. "The incident of Senior Brother falling off the cliff back then was already suspicious. Everyone knew who was involved, but Senior Brother didn't mention a single word and forbade us to ask any more questions!"
The more Xu Qing spoke, the angrier and more helpless she seemed to feel. She closed her eyes slightly to smooth her breathing, and then she didn't want to look at Fan Zhiyi anymore, nor did she want to talk to him anymore.
Falling off a cliff? Was it pushed by the original body?
It seems that Xu Qing doesn't know what exactly happened and the details. I'm afraid that only the original body and Bing Nandong who were present know.
As expected, he shouldn't have asked this question at this time. Fan Zhiyi suddenly felt that Xu Qing, Bing Nandong's little tail, was too kind not to abandon him and leave in anger.
When they reached the door of Qian's house, Xu Qing turned around and left. Fan Zhiyi sighed and knocked on the door of Qian's house himself.
The moment the door opened, Fan Zhiyi's eyes widened slightly: "Master Qian? Why is Master Qian here in the middle of the night?"
"I feel anxious and can't sleep tonight, so I thought of coming here to wait for you immortals." Qian Hu answered with ease.
