"That old man, he always knows he'll be back for dinner by this time. It's almost dark now, why hasn't he come back yet? Has he been bewitched by that little vixen?" an old woman muttered in the kitchen.
"Mother, hasn't Father come back yet? I'm hungry." A boy of about half a year came into the kitchen and asked the old woman.
"Not yet! Go check under the locust tree at the village entrance. What is that son of a bitch doing there? It's so late and he still hasn't come back. Has he been bewitched by the locust tree spirit?" the old woman cursed.
The little guy left the kitchen and ran quickly towards the locust tree at the entrance of his village to call his father for dinner.
"Daddy! Mommy's calling you home for dinner, I'm starving!" The boy, panting, arrived under the locust tree and saw his father still swaying back and forth in the rocking chair. He called out to him.
But her father seemed to be asleep and didn't hear her calls at all. The child smiled and quietly went to her father. She took out a foxtail grass that she had picked from the side, squatted down at her father's feet, and gently tickled the soles of her father's feet with the foxtail grass.
"Huh? Something's not right. Why do my father's feet look strange? They don't seem as bloodless as before. Now they look pale, and there are purplish-red patches on the insteps!"
"Daddy, get up and eat! Mommy's calling us home for dinner!" the child called softly, but his father didn't respond.
She then went to her father's head and slowly removed the palm-leaf fan that was covering his head!
A hideous and terrifying face suddenly appeared in front of the child. The child saw a face that had no skin, completely gnawed and mangled by something. At first, his mind went blank, and then he fell straight back to the ground, staring blankly at the sky. The sky gradually darkened, and the terrifying face he had just seen appeared. The face was still blinking at him and smiling eerily at him...
Light Water City
Inside the Liu Family Ancestral Hall,
Two very heavy and luxurious coffins sat alone inside, filled with paper figures and horses, and incense smoke, but no one was seen offering sacrifices there.
On the other side
Inside the Liu family compound,
A group of old men were arguing heatedly, their faces flushed! They seemed to be refusing to back down over something, and it looked like they were about to come to blows at the slightest provocation!
Inside the Liu family ancestral hall, the coffin that had already been sealed suddenly stirred, as if something inside wanted to come out!
"Boom boom boom!"
The thumping sounds from inside the coffin grew louder and louder! It sounded like someone inside was pounding hard on the coffin lid with something!
With a loud "boom!"
The coffin lid, nailed shut with long spikes, was flung off by a tremendous force! A pair of speckled hands slowly reached out and grabbed the edges of the coffin on both sides...
"Why do you get so much more? We're all from the Liu family, why do I get so little?"
"I'm taking so much because I've served the Liu family wholeheartedly, working myself to the bone until my dying breath! And you, you do nothing all day long, wandering around, indulging in sensual pleasures. I've already been generous enough to give you parasites who are Liu family servants this much!"
"You? You want to serve us wholeheartedly, even unto death? Hahaha... Aren't you afraid we'll laugh at you? Don't you know your own limitations? You want to take all of the Liu family's assets? You're not even close!"
“Yes! Now that our eldest brother is dead and Hanbao has not left any heirs, we uncles and brothers can divide up all of our eldest brother’s belongings and servants. But can we first bury our eldest brother’s father and son and then discuss how to divide the inheritance?”
"Don't worry, they're very quiet in the ancestral hall. Besides, what difference does it make whether these two things are guarded or buried? They're not going to be stolen."
Inside the Liu family compound, apart from the noisy people, it was deathly silent. After hearing the news that Old Man Liu had died, the servants inside the Liu family compound, before the Liu family members arrived, all began to secretly take what they thought were valuable items from the compound and scattered like birds and beasts, going off to make a living on their own.
There isn't a single servant in this huge mansion now, and the Liu family members inside are still arguing incessantly! Everyone knows that no one will want this house in the future; it will be sold off immediately.
Just as they were arguing and preparing to fight, a young man suddenly rushed into the house in a panic. He whispered something in the ear of the second son of the Liu family. The second son of the Liu family turned pale and slammed his hand on the table next to him in anger!
"Damn it, this is outrageous! Are they taking advantage of the fact that the Liu family has no one left?" The second son of the Liu family cursed loudly.
"Second brother, what's wrong? What's the matter that made you so angry?"
"Hey, second brother, what are you doing? We're discussing how to divide the family property right now, what's wrong with you?"
"You're still dividing up the family property here? Does the Liu family even have any property left? What property left? The steward of Qingshui City said that our eldest son of the Liu family was reported by concerned citizens for engaging in some illegal businesses in the Great Yu Dynasty. Now they want to confiscate all of the eldest son's property! And then the whole family's assets will be confiscated!" The second son said with a ferocious expression.
"What? Who does he think he is? How dare he treat our Liu family like this? If our Liu family hadn't been supporting him for so long, he wouldn't be a thing!"
"How could our Liu family's property fall into the hands of an outsider? We must take it back!"
"Yes! We must take it back!"
The Liu family members, who were fighting amongst themselves just moments ago, have now all united as one, filled with righteous indignation and sharing a common hatred for the enemy!
Just as the Liu family members were preparing to discuss how to fight against the steward of Qingshui City, the gate of the Liu family mansion was suddenly flung open by a tremendous force!
"Who's outside? Why is the door opening so loudly?"
"Could it be that damned manager sent people here to strike first and pin us all down here?!"
"Quick, quick, everyone grab your weapons and go out to check. If it really is someone sent by the manager, then beat them to a pulp!"
"Yes! Kill them all! Otherwise, do you think that just because the Liu family no longer has a leader, we Liu family members can be manipulated at will? Not a chance!"
A group of people carrying all sorts of weapons walked menacingly out of the inner room, ready to fight the people who came in from the opposite side!
"Tap...tap...tap",
The footsteps outside grew closer and closer, as if each step was treading on the hearts of these people!
"That's not right! Why is it just one person? Could it be someone sent by that corrupt official?"
"You guys go out and see how many of them there are?"
"Then why don't you go out and look? Why do you make us go out and look?"
"What the hell is going on? Still fighting amongst yourselves? Everyone get ready, I have a feeling this guy outside is no ordinary person!"
The entire Liu family stood guard not far from the second gate inside the mansion, weapons in hand, their expressions varied as they watched the gate approach, listening to the unhurried footsteps slowly drawing near!
A deafening roar!
The second gate of the Liu family mansion was violently flung open!
A very strong gust of cold wind blew in from outside, causing the Liu family members inside to stagger and be unable to open their eyes!
"Ah! A ghost!"
"This...this...isn't this the boss's corpse? How did it end up here?"
"Help! Boss Liu has come back to life!"
"Brother, it wasn't me who wanted a share of your inheritance. It was them, the second brother, who brought it up first, and that's when we joined in. We never wanted your inheritance at all!"
"Yes, yes, yes! It was the second brother who said it first. We just had no choice. Otherwise, your family fortune would have been swallowed up by the second brother all by himself. We just wanted to... wanted to help you protect your family fortune!"
"Yes, yes, we just want to protect your family fortune from being taken over by the second son alone!"
"Brother! I have my reasons! Look, now that you're gone, that corrupt official wants to seize our Liu family's property. If I hadn't done this, our Liu family would have been doomed!" The second son of the Liu family knelt down on the ground with a thud, and a strong smell of urine was already emanating from his crotch!
It wasn't just the second son of the Liu family; countless members of the Liu family were terrified when they saw their eldest son like this!
Liu Laoda didn't speak, he just stood straight in front of his former brothers. Because he could no longer speak, there were now more than a dozen fleshy stalks dangling from his neck, and a section of his cervical vertebrae protruding! He looked very strange and creepy!
"Meow"!
Just then, a three-legged cat, completely black, walked over from a distance and came to Liu Laoda's headless corpse. It circled the corpse once, its tail sweeping back and forth over Liu Laoda's calves, which were covered in his burial clothes.
Suddenly, this pitch-black, three-legged cat leaped lightly and landed directly on Boss Liu's neck! It stared at the terrified crowd opposite it with extremely cold eyes.
"Purr... Meow..."
The black cat meowed at the Liu family members below, then opened its mouth and began licking the exposed cervical spine of the eldest Liu!
Everyone watched this scene with trepidation, and some people couldn't help but vomit!
"I'm not quite dead yet, and you're already so impatient? You want my fortune?" Suddenly, a cold voice rang out, sounding no different from Boss Liu's!
"Big brother, it's none of our business! It was all the second brother's doing. If you want to kill someone, kill the second brother. It really has nothing to do with us!"
"Yes, yes, yes! We really didn't want your family fortune. We were all misled by the second son. Please, let us go!"
"Hmph! A bunch of cowards. Since they dare to do it but not to admit it, no wonder the Liu family scattered as soon as their father died. Not a single one of them is any good!" said the black cat on Liu's neck.
"We know we are not as capable as you, brother. But now that you have returned, our Liu family is saved! All of us in the Liu family will follow your lead and make the Liu family bigger and stronger, creating new glories!"
"Heh! You still love to flatter. Alright, go and summon the steward of Qingshui City here. Tell him I'm waiting for him here, and we'll see what methods he can use to take my property!" Black Cat said.
"Yes! We'll go right away!" The Liu family members scrambled out of the Liu family compound.
"Sigh... This place used to be bustling with people, but in just a few days, it has become so desolate!" The headless corpse of Boss Liu looked at the Liu family mansion he had built with his own hands and felt very emotional.
"What? The Liu family sent you a message saying that you need to go to the Liu family residence in person, saying that the eldest son of the Liu family is waiting for you inside!"
"What? Wasn't Liu's eldest son already dead? Wasn't he beaten to death by Chen Dahe with a hoe? How could he still be sending me a message?"
"My lord! You don't know this, do you? This is a warning from the Liu family! It means that if you dare to touch the Liu family's property, they will make sure you suffer the same fate as their own boss!" one of the steward's advisors analyzed.
"Hmph! They've gone too far! I don't believe they really dare to kill me! I refuse to believe in evil spirits and I'm going to see what kind of feast these Liu family members have prepared for me!"
"Then I will immediately gather my men and prepare to go to Old Master Liu's house!" the strategist said.
"Yes, we need to bring more people. When we get to the Liu family's residence, we'll just pin a trumped-up charge on them and wipe out the entire Liu family in one fell swoop. Wouldn't all of the Liu family's property be ours?" the steward said.
"Hehe, the steward's move was brilliant!" the strategist said, giving the steward a thumbs-up.
"Heh heh, apart from the eldest son of the Liu family, everyone else in the Liu family is a bunch of good-for-nothings, including his idiot son. Sometimes I really feel sorry for the eldest son of the Liu family. He worked so hard to build this business, but as soon as he falls, his business collapses too!" The steward sighed.
"My lord, our men are ready and can depart at any time!"
"Alright! Let's go to the Liu family mansion now and see what kind of grand gift these Liu family members have given us, hahaha..."! The steward, dressed in his heavy armor, walked out of his mansion and led his men in a grand procession toward the Liu family mansion...
"Where are the Liu family members? Are they all dead? Our steward has arrived, why haven't you come out to pay your respects?" The strategist standing at the gate shouted at the Liu family mansion with its gate wide open.
But no one responded from inside; it was as lifeless as a tomb!
"Take a team in and investigate the situation!" the strategist said, looking at his subordinate.
"Yes!" The subordinates immediately accepted the order and led their team into the Liu family mansion. Ostensibly, they were going to investigate, but in reality, they were going to loot the Liu family mansion!
Everyone would be willing to do this kind of work! A group of ravenous soldiers stormed into the Liu family compound and began looting every room inside!
For a time, footsteps echoed throughout the Liu family mansion, along with the sounds of porcelain shattering and tables and chairs being moved around.
The two teams had been inside for almost half an hour when the steward discovered that his subordinates had not been ambushed. He then sent two more teams in and began to continue looting the second floor of the Liu family mansion!
After the four groups went inside, some people started pushing and shoving each other in order to grab the treasures inside. Gradually, the verbal dispute turned into a fight, and the scene became very chaotic!
Seeing his subordinates like this, the steward cursed and followed the rest of his men into the Liu family mansion. Of course, the mansion was already surrounded by his men, so that not even a fly could get out!
The steward ignored his subordinates who were still fighting over the treasures and led his trusted confidants and strategists to the innermost part of the Liu family mansion, which was the third floor!
The steward's confidant opened the main gate of the Liu family mansion's innermost level! A very strong gust of cold wind blew out from inside, making the steward and his subordinates feel a chill all over their bodies, almost blowing them to the ground, and they couldn't even open their eyes!
"Damn it! What the hell is that wind! It's making me feel really uncomfortable!" The steward cursed inwardly, then looked at the courtyard inside, which gave off a very eerie feeling!
"You've arrived? Come in!"
Suddenly a voice rang out from inside.
"This... isn't that Boss Liu's voice? Could it be that he really didn't die, or has he come back to life?" The steward and his subordinates felt a chill run down their spines, looking inside with fear, none of them wanting to go in first.
"My lord, this voice sounds like Boss Liu's at first glance, but Boss Liu has so many brothers, wouldn't they find someone to impersonate Boss Liu and scare us away?" the strategist beside him said calmly.
"That's right! How come I didn't think of that? Hmm, you're absolutely right, sir. I almost got fooled by these scoundrels! Then I'll trouble you to take your men inside and arrest all these Liu family charlatans. Don't worry! I won't steal your credit; I'll report the truth." The steward said with a smile.
The strategist's face turned pale, and he wished he could slap himself a few times. He could tell that the atmosphere inside was a bit gloomy, but he said that to encourage his muddle-headed manager.
Unexpectedly, this idiot didn't follow the rules and wanted to go in himself to take the risk for him!
"You few, follow me! Prepare your shields and weapons, and be constantly alert to any movement around you. You must protect me well, understand?" The strategist rambled on for a long time, and then, surrounded by the shields of these soldiers, he stepped across the threshold of the last level of the Liu family mansion and walked inside!
Aside from being a bit colder inside than outside, there didn't seem to be any danger. It also seemed like no one was hiding inside. We walked through most of the courtyard, but found no ambush at all!
"Oh? I remember now, everyone disperse, we'll be fine!" the strategist suddenly said with a relieved expression.
"What do you mean by that, sir?" the officers and soldiers asked, looking puzzled. At first, this guy seemed more afraid of death than anyone else, but now he wasn't. Did he know the secret behind this?
"We're just here to observe! The main family is still outside, so we're not in any real danger. There's no need for us to be so timid or hesitant. You all go and explore. I'll also take a look at the grandeur and layout of the innermost part of the Liu family mansion!" The strategist finished speaking calmly and stepped out from behind the all-encompassing shield.
The strategist stood with his hands behind his back, looking around in amazement at the pavilions, towers, rockeries, and lotus ponds. All the beautiful scenery was breathtaking, and he felt that the mansion that Boss Liu had built at great expense was truly extraordinary.
Seeing that their strategist was not in any danger, the officers and soldiers lowered their guard and began to enter any house they could find, looting all the valuables inside!
After seeing that his strategist was safe once he went inside, the steward felt that the strategist's words made sense. He then led his men to surround him, and they crossed the stone bridge over the lotus pond, passed through the pavilions and towers, and arrived at the innermost place, which was where Boss Liu had lived before his death!
"Go open the door!"
The steward looked at the row of tightly closed doors and ordered his subordinates to open them. The subordinates, holding knives, tiptoed and carefully made their way to the front doors.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!"
Before the soldiers even reached the gates, the gates suddenly opened by themselves without any wind! Startled, the soldiers all drew their swords, ready for battle!
"Master Steward, it seems you're not very bold. Since you dare to take my Liu family's property, then be bolder and more assertive. Don't make me look down on you, okay?"
Inside the house, Boss Liu's voice was full of mockery, as if he had personally witnessed the steward cowering in his own courtyard, seeing enemies everywhere, and acting like a frightened bird.
"Hmph! A bunch of charlatans pretending to be gods and ghosts. You think you can scare me away like this? Even if Boss Liu were alive, I would never be afraid of him! Not to mention he's already dead, and he died a terrible death, he doesn't even have a head! Hahaha..."! The steward laughed arrogantly.
"Oh? How do you know I'm not Boss Liu? Then do you dare come in and see for yourself? Am I just playing a trick on you?"
"Come on then! Do you think I'm afraid of you?!" The steward and his soldiers had already surrounded the entire courtyard, preventing anyone inside from escaping!
The steward stepped onto the stone steps and arrived at the gate. He saw that the gate was full of Liu family members, all of whom were pale-faced and looking at the steward with fear.
The steward looked around at the large main hall, which was filled with members of the Liu family on both sides. The center of the hall was covered by a black curtain, and a person could be vaguely seen sitting inside, with voices coming from inside. There was also an empty seat next to him.
"Hehe! You guys are very talented actors; your expressions look so realistic!"
The steward looked at the Liu family members inside and gave them a look that said, "I've seen through you all. Stop pretending."
"Steward, come sit here next to me!"
"Hehe, you guys are quite something, your formation is really starting to scare me!" The steward looked at the Liu family members on both sides, then strode towards the stool next to the black curtain!
The soldiers behind them had already surrounded all the members of the Liu family, and all of them had drawn their knives! It was as if any member of the Liu family would be beheaded if they dared to make a move!
"Alright, I'm already seated. Didn't you say Boss Liu called me here? Where is he? Hurry up and call him out. I'm very busy right now. As the magistrate of such a big city as Qingshui, I don't have time to play along with your charade!" The steward said, crossing his legs and shaking them slightly.
"Hehe! Hahaha..."!
Just then, the person inside the black curtain suddenly burst into laughter!
"What are you laughing at? I don't want to expose you now. If you come out obediently, I will treat you leniently. But if you continue to play tricks, I will punish you along with these unruly people, behead you like them, and hang your corpse on the gate for half a month!" the steward said.
"Hahaha... Steward, what an imposing official air, what a heavy killing intent! I, Boss Liu, have always treated you well, and now that I'm dead, you want to exterminate my Liu family? Aren't you being a little ungrateful?"
"Ungrateful? Back when you were alive, you were always pointing fingers at me. If I didn't obey you, you threatened me with my family."
Just like last time, none of my managers gave orders to arrest those four thugs, but you gave orders to my subordinates right in front of me. I just glared at you, and that very afternoon, my son's leg was inexplicably broken. Was that your doing too?
"Who told you to disobey me! I fed you, built you a mansion, provided you with the best food and drink, and even helped your family with their business and mining! And this is how you repay me?"
I built you the best doghouse, fed you the best meat, and gave you everything that was the best in Qingshui City! And you? You couldn't change your shit-eating nature, and you insisted on trying to break free of the chain I put on you, trying to bite me back! A dog like you who doesn't even recognize its master, might as well be killed!" A very strong murderous aura emanated from the black curtain, and the steward's crossed legs were a little too loose!
"Master! Now that you've come, why hide? I don't blame you for my son's failure to come back to life, and you don't need to feel guilty towards me. Perhaps this is just fate that cannot be defied!"
"Brother Liu, when a person dies, it's like a lamp going out. Why be so persistent? Go! Leave this world and go where you belong!"
"Master, you've seen the situation, and I'm really worried!"
"You have already died, and your past is over. The future will be arranged by cause and effect. Don't be too attached to the present situation!"
"Hahaha... karma has its own way of catching up with me? But I can't wait any longer! I want all these scoundrels who covet my wealth to die before my very eyes!"
“I say, Master, you don’t need to act anymore. I’ve seen through your tricks. You should just relax and sit down and have a proper discussion about how to deal with these Liu family members!”
"Boundless Heaven and Earth! Steward, didn't you take a count of the Liu family members when you came in? Check if any members of the Liu family are still here. And think about who else is in here?"
"Hahaha... I saw it a long time ago. Sure enough, the entire Liu family is here. And then what? You mean the person sitting inside is Liu the Elder himself? You want me to believe that a headless corpse ran out of the Liu family ancestral hall and came here to chat and talk nonsense with me?"
"Believe it or not! I will no longer be involved in this matter. You'd better take care of yourselves. I'll take my leave now!"
After the monk finished speaking, he wanted to turn around and leave. This Boss Liu was full of resentment, and he had no way to subdue him here. He might as well die here. It would be better to leave as soon as possible! But before he reached the gate, he was blocked by six soldiers!
"Master Steward, what do you mean by this?" the monk asked, turning to the steward.
"Hehe, didn't you say that the real Boss Liu is inside this black curtain? I was thinking, how do you know that the person pretending to be a ghost inside is Boss Liu without even looking? Why don't you wait here for a bit, and I'll drag this ghost out so we can see what Boss Liu really looks like, okay?"
The steward looked at the sorcerer with a smile, feeling that the sorcerer was also in cahoots with the Liu family members, trying to use Boss Liu's remaining influence to intimidate him! He was also very curious about who was playing Boss Liu behind the black curtain. The sorcerer seemed to have almost the same aura as Boss Liu!
"The steward is courting death, and I cannot stop him. However, I do not wish to die yet, so I beg the steward to spare my life. Perhaps I will return here in the future to retrieve your remains and bury you in a propitious burial place!" The monk's tone turned cold.
"Hahaha... Well then, I'll thank you in advance, Master. But Liu, I've been sitting here for so long, what's the meaning of hiding behind the black curtain? Are you shy or ashamed? Come on, take down that black curtain!" the steward shouted sternly!
"Hehe... Master Steward, I advise you not to remove the black veil. It's not that I don't want to come out and face you, but I'm afraid I'll scare you to death if I come out, and that would really be a sin!" Liu, the eldest brother, said with a sneer from inside the black veil.
"Hahaha... What haven't I seen in the world? What big scenes haven't I experienced? You? You're trying to scare me to death? Just don't make me laugh to death!"
"Sigh... alright! Since the steward insists, there's nothing I can do. Let's be frank with each other!" After saying this, Liu Laoda, who was sitting inside the black curtain, didn't even need the soldiers to remove it. Suddenly, a gust of wind swept up from inside, blowing the black curtain aside and revealing Liu Laoda sitting inside to everyone!
The air in the main hall suddenly seemed to freeze, and a pungent stench spread throughout the entire hall! Apart from the Liu family members who were trembling more and more violently, everyone else who saw Liu Laoda's current state was stunned for several seconds!
"Thump!"
One of the soldiers fell straight backward, scared to death by Liu Laoda's appearance!
"Hahaha... this look is really good. If I didn't know you were an imposter, I almost would have been fooled!" The steward laughed heartily, trying to stand up and leave, but his legs were as weak as boiled noodles, completely unresponsive! He couldn't stand up! The surrounding soldiers were so frightened that some collapsed to the ground, some fainted, and others lost control of their bladders!
"Alright! Now that you've seen me, let's talk about how to divide my property, shall we, my steward?" Boss Liu ignored the soldiers' expressions, walked up to the steward, and bent down, the black cat on his neck staring intently at the steward with its cold eyes!
A suffocating, oppressive feeling, accompanied by a stench that could knock a person unconscious, assaulted their senses! The steward gripped the armrests of his chair tightly, determined not to collapse to the floor, clinging to the last shred of his dignity and self-respect!
Seeing that the steward didn't dare to look up at him, Boss Liu squatted down and placed his hands, covered in lividity, on the steward's shoulders!
"Ah...you monster, don't touch me! Please don't touch me!" The steward completely broke down, no longer able to remain calm! He stared in terror at the headless creature in front of him, with a strange three-legged cat perched on top of it!
"Hahaha... Now I want to ask my steward, do I look like someone else in disguise? Am I the real Boss Liu? Come on, feel it for yourself and see if I'm an imposter?"
After saying that, Boss Liu grabbed the steward's hand and pulled it forcefully towards his neck!
"Ah... I believe you, you are the real Boss Liu, please let me go! I will be obedient from now on, I will be your dog, you can make me eat meat, I will eat meat, I will never eat shit again!" The steward had completely lost control, talking nonsense. If Boss Liu did something else, this steward would definitely become a complete madman!
"Alright, now that you've all confirmed my identity, Master, you will act as my witness. I'm going to announce the distribution of my assets!" Boss Liu sat back down in his seat and said.
"Alright! Go ahead, I'm listening!" The mage looked at Boss Liu with a solemn expression. Boss Liu was extremely fierce now, and he was no match for him at all, so he should try his best not to provoke him!
"Hehe! The steward is here now, and so are my Liu family members. I'll make things clear to you now. You all know how I died and how my son died! So if you want my property, I can give it to you, as long as one of you can kill Chen Dahe and his daughter, as well as the murderer who killed my son, I will hand over all my property with both hands!"
Killing Chen Dahe and his daughter, two ordinary people, is an easy task for you. So, as long as you bring Chen Dahe's head and his lively daughter to me, I will give you all my property!
The other four thugs are more troublesome. If you can kill one of them, I can tell you about one of my secret treasure locations! If you bring me all four of their heads, then I will tell you about all my treasure locations!
"The things in my treasure trove are far more than all my public assets. Alas... it's a pity that my son was useless and died, leaving no heir. So all this wealth can only be used as money for revenge!" Old Liu said in a very dejected and lonely tone.
"You're already so powerful, why don't you take revenge yourself?" the mage asked, looking at Boss Liu.
"You think I don't want to? My current condition is very unstable! I can't travel far, otherwise, why would I place my hopes on a bunch of good-for-nothings like you?"
After hearing this, none of these people uttered a sound, because in front of Boss Liu, they were truly less than ants! So they could only accept that they were trash in Boss Liu's eyes!
"Hehe! Of course, you can't compare to them, you're just a little bit better than these good-for-nothings!" Boss Liu didn't even spare the monk who had promised to be his notary.
"Alright, I've made myself clear! You can leave now. I'll stay here and guard my property and treasures, waiting for your triumphant return! Alright, you can get lost!" After saying this, Boss Liu slowly disappeared from everyone's sight...
Inside the Liu family mansion, countless people tumbled and crawled out, as if evil spirits were chasing them. Those who survived the ordeal returned home, some of them went insane, some became mentally unstable, and some became listless and sickly, as if their energy had been drained.
However, some people with strong willpower and inner strength began to plot and inquire about the whereabouts of Chen Dahe and his daughter, as well as the other four thugs, preparing to seize Liu Laoda's enormous wealth...
"Master, let's take a rest. Look, they seem to be at their limit," the white wolf said, looking at Chen Dahe and his daughter, who were drenched in sweat.
"Let's rest at that teahouse by the roadside!" the little guy said.
"Alright!" White Wolf looked at Chen Dahe and his daughter with some pity, then walked towards the teahouse in front.
Chen Dahe and his daughter looked at the white wolf with gratitude, and then followed after him with great difficulty.
"Hmph! You're quite the chivalrous one, aren't you?" Green Snake snorted coldly, her tone laced with a strong sourness! All along the way, this Green Lotus called him "Brother White Wolf" from left to right, making White Wolf overjoyed and taking extra care of this human little sister.
They completely ignored the Green Snake, as if they had forgotten about her, and kept making Cui Lian laugh all the way, which made the Green Snake grit her teeth in anger...
