Whoosh!
The sound of wind breaking through the air was clearly audible in the cold, damp atmosphere.
but--
Just as the long snake attacked Achen, the guard Amei beside him made a move.
"court death!"
"Even insects living outside the mountains dare to be so arrogant."
slap slap--
Siwei Amei twitched her knuckles with one hand and slapped out with the other.
The next second, the black snakes that had been sprang up were sent flying.
Not only that, but even other insects that came from the ground were instantly wiped out by the guards.
As for those in the distance, they quickly dodged, seemingly having encountered their nemesis.
This scene was clearly seen by Ge Jun in front of him, which frightened him so much that he trembled all over, looked like he had seen a ghost, and his face became even paler.
Ah Chen glanced around, his gaze finally settling on the entrance of the old house.
It was pitch black inside, but the yin energy seemed even stronger than outside.
Not only that, but there were also several thicker black snakes on the stone steps, though these black snakes were already dead.
"Amo--"
Ah Chen called out softly.
Amo knew what was going on simply by pinching the knuckles behind her back.
"After being attacked by the backlash, Granny Ge was probably thinking of escaping, but she was stopped by the old woman in the shadows."
Sure enough, as soon as Ah Mo finished speaking, the lights in the mansion came on.
After that, Qingmiao's grandmother came out.
The old woman's originally cold and gloomy expression changed when she saw Ah Chen; she smiled.
"Miao'er, come in quickly, I have good news."
"Who are you? What are you doing here?"
It would have been better if Ge Jun had kept quiet, because Granny Qingmiao didn't take him seriously at all.
And when he spoke, the old woman just stared at him coldly.
The next second, a golden silkworm appeared silently on Ge Jun's neck.
laugh--
Ge Jun collapsed to the ground before he could even react.
"Grandma, don't touch him yet, he's still useful."
Amo tried to stop her, but the old woman said, "This Han man has too much yin energy on him; even if he's useful, he won't live long."
"Let him live for now! There are some things we still need him to sign."
After the sound fell, Amo flicked his finger.
The burly man, Ge Jun, had just felt a slight pain in his chest when he fainted the next second.
Inside the Western-style house.
When Amo accompanied Achen in, the room was filled with dead insects.
The scene was shocking.
"Miao'er, go to the basement, that half-baked old woman is down there."
It turned out that Granny Ge had just had the idea of escaping, but before she could even leave the basement, she was dealt with by Granny Qingmiao.
But this basement--
When Ah Chen entered, he felt a chill.
The space is less than 30 square meters. There are many containers on the wooden shelves next to it, and there are other bottles and jars on the lower level.
This is clearly a place for raising insects, but--
Many insect species have been destroyed.
On the ground beside them lay an old woman with disheveled, gray hair.
"Is she the 'Sixth Master'?" Ah Chen asked.
"It's that old hag who's bad at her craft but insists on raising insects." Granny Qingmiao said with a face full of disdain.
Ah Chen looked around. When he arrived at Granny Ge's side, he found that Granny Ge's sunken eyes were tightly closed, her face was deathly pale, and there were insects crawling in her loose muscles. He asked Granny Qingmiao:
"What's wrong with her?"
"Miao'er, don't blame Grandma! Grandma didn't expect this half-baked guy to be so weak. I hit him a little too hard and made him stupid."
Forehead--
A witch doctor who could remotely control others was surprisingly no match for Granny Qingmiao.
Ah Chen was extremely frustrated!
I was thinking to myself, "Grandma, I still have questions for you. Why didn't you leave me a moment to think clearly?"
"Miao'er--"
Although the basement lights were dim, the old woman still saw Ah Chen's bewildered expression.
She quickly stepped forward and said, "Miao'er, Grandma has already asked around. This half-baked guy is the one who attacked your classmate and controlled your teacher. She also sent people to search for treasure in our deep mountains. The person who shot you was also sent by her adopted son."
"Grandma, I haven't asked her where she got my portrait yet."
"I asked, I asked. It was given to her by someone surnamed Guan. Look, there are a few more here."
Grandma pulled Ah Chen to the wooden frame on the side.
There were indeed a few portraits on the wooden shelf, and they did look like me, but--
There seem to be some differences.
“Ah Chen, this portrait must have been drawn based on someone else’s description. It doesn’t look like the subject up close, but it does look about 50-60% like him from a distance.”
Amo picked up the hand-drawn portrait and compared it with Achen's.
“The Holy Maiden is right, it doesn’t look like it. Our Miao’er is not that ugly.”
cough cough--
Suddenly, Ah Chen was taken aback by what the old woman said.
His cough made Amo, who was standing next to him, laugh.
"Miao'er, there's a secret here. Come here."
The old woman pulled Ah Chen to the side wall and pointed to the almost invisible crack in the stone wall.
“Look, doesn’t this look like the mark of a door? Holy Maiden, look too.”
Amo leaned closer and, after examining it, said, "It does indeed resemble a stone gate."
"Amo. Could it be—"
Ah Chen's first thought was of what Ah Mo had said on the way here.
Amo also suspected that the information about the treasure that Granny Ge, who had gone mad, had obtained from the old man of the Guan family back then was probably here.
then--
Just as Amo was about to check how to open the stone door, Granny Qingmiao pressed hard against the marked section of the wall on the side, and the next second—
