Chapter 170 Yun Shu: Don't worry, I've summoned someone from the underworld.
This old woman's original name was Nie Baohua. She died more than seventy years ago. She was once a bandit leader. Later, during the chaotic times, she established a caravan and accumulated a lot of wealth. During her lifetime, she was considered a well-known strong woman.
But being a bandit by origin, she committed many evil deeds while building her fortune, including arson, murder, and robbery. She was not a good person and should have been cast into hell after her death.
Before she died, she found a master to help her evade the underworld officials' attempts to take her soul. After the underworld discovered this, she even had a junior member of the Nie family impersonate her and be captured by the underworld officials.
Nie Baohua has been dead for over seventy years, and for over a hundred years she has been evading capture by the underworld.
Because she had killed many people in her lifetime, she had a strong aura of malevolence. Even after she died, she became a very fierce ghost, and soon became a powerful Qinggui.
Just as Yun Shu finished reviewing the information, Chu Xingnan sent another message.
Not long ago, some underworld officials found Nie Baohua. When they went to arrest her, they were beaten to a pulp by Nie Baohua. We deduce that her cultivation level may be about to break through to become a ghost general.
She collects these antique treasures, most of which contain spiritual energy. She probably wants to absorb this energy to break through and become a Ghost General in one fell swoop!
Yun Shu's expression turned serious upon seeing the message.
If that old woman really succeeds in becoming a ghost general, then things will get complicated. Most of the underworld's officials can't handle her; it'll probably require the Black and White Impermanence to intervene personally.
"Could it be that she's clinging to Fu Yuezhong's daughter also in order to improve her cultivation level?"
Yun Shu suddenly understood.
Fu Yuezhong's daughter was born in an auspicious year, month, day, and hour, and being a girl, she was considered a great tonic for most ghosts.
Now that old woman Nie Baohua's scheme has been exposed and she can no longer deceive Fu Yuezhong, she is very likely to directly target Yuezhong's daughter!
Yun Shu also told Chu Xingnan about this, and then gave her Fu Yuezhong's address.
Chu Xingnan: [Don't worry, I'll get a colleague to keep an eye on things. We absolutely won't let that little girl get carried away by a ghost!]
Seeing Chu Xingnan's reply, Yun Shu felt a little relieved, but still reminded her, "It's best not to disrupt their normal lives or frighten the children."
Fu Yuezhong's daughter is still in elementary school. If she is frightened by something like this, she might be traumatized.
Chu Xingnan replied with an "ok".
After Yun Shu finished talking with Chu Xingnan, she went straight out and took a taxi to the Fu family's house.
On her way there, Fu Yuezhong sent her many more messages, urging her to come over. It was clear that he was very anxious.
Before long, she finally arrived at the Fu family's door. Before Yun Shu even got out of the car, she saw Fu Yuezhong pacing back and forth in front of the house.
"Master Yun!"
Seeing Yun Shu get out of the car, Fu Yuezhong hurriedly walked over to her and said anxiously, "Why does that thing in my dream keep haunting my daughter? We've already given her all the things in our house, isn't that enough? Why does it have to hurt us, father and daughter!"
Last night's dream terrified him so much that he couldn't fall asleep all night after waking up.
Even during the day, I have no motivation to go to work; I'm just paranoid at home.
Seeing his panic, Yun Shu hesitated for a moment and said, "I've already explained to you why she's targeting you and your daughter, but you probably don't understand, so I won't explain it again. However, I've found some friends to protect your family, so don't worry, she can't hurt you."
Upon hearing this, Fu Yuezhong's expression immediately lit up with joy. "Master Yun, you are truly a man of great loyalty! Now that you say so, I can finally rest assured."
After he finished speaking, he glanced behind Yun Shu and asked, "When are your friends arriving? I'll have the servants prepare some delicious food and drinks to treat them well. Thank you for your help this time!"
Yun Shu, however, looked toward the Fu family villa.
Before she arrived by taxi, Chu Xingnan and the other underworld officials had already arrived. Chu Xingnan's flashy sports car was parked in the yard, but Fu Yuezhong couldn't see it.
Meanwhile, Chu Xingnan and the other underworld officials were inspecting the villa and setting traps.
If Nie Baohua dares to show herself here, they will immediately arrest her and send her to hell to be punished.
Yun Shu then told Yue Zhong, "They arrived a long time ago and are already at your house. As for the food and drinks, forget about it. They are all public officials and cannot accept bribes."
"ah?"
Fu Yuezhong was completely dumbfounded.
He turned to look at his villa, but he didn't see anyone at all; the only people in his house were the servants who had always been there.
At this moment, Yun Shu saw Chu Xingnan come out, so she started walking towards the villa, and Fu Yuezhong quickly followed her.
Chu Xingnan approached Yun Shu and asked, "Where's the child you mentioned? I haven't seen him."
She was referring to Fu Yuezhong's daughter.
Yun Shu asked in surprise, "His daughter isn't home?"
"Um."
Upon receiving an affirmative answer, Yun Shu frowned and looked at Fu Yuezhong, "Why isn't your daughter home? At this hour, how can you let your daughter go out so freely?"
Fu Yuezhong sighed, "It's all because of my wife. She insisted on sending my daughter to tutoring classes. I told her this morning that a ghost was watching my daughter, but she didn't believe me and even called me crazy. In the end, I still sent my daughter to tutoring classes."
After Fu Yuezhong finished speaking, seeing that Yun Shu looked somewhat displeased, he quickly added, "But that tutoring class requires parents to sit in on the classes, which means my wife will have to accompany my daughter the whole time. This... this shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Yun Shu gave him a speechless look. "Your wife can't catch ghosts, what's the point of her keeping you company?"
As Yun Shu finished speaking, Chu Xingnan added, "When we checked just now, we found that the array you set up in the children's room was broken. That old woman probably found out that you wanted to capture her, and she probably won't come back here. She might make her move outside."
"The formation has been broken?"
Yun Shu had previously set up a ghost-suppressing formation under the bed in the children's room, which would trap any ghosts that appeared. She never expected that it would be broken.
Yun Shu's expression grew increasingly solemn. It seemed that Nie Baohua's strength was even greater than she had imagined.
She quickly asked Fu Yuezhong, "Where is your daughter taking tutoring? Take us there right away, it would be terrible if something happened to her there!"
"Alright, alright, I'll take you there right away."
Fu Yuezhong was about to drive his car when he suddenly realized something was wrong after taking only a few steps.
He looked at Yun Shu with a terrified expression, "Master Yun, it's just the two of us here! Who were you talking to just now? And what did you mean by 'you two'? Who else is here?!"
Yun Shu then realized that Fu Yuezhong couldn't see those underworld messengers. She was about to explain when she saw Fu Yuezhong frantically moving away from her.
He stumbled back several steps, his expression growing increasingly terrified as he looked at her. "You...you're too strange! You're not Master Yun, you're a ghost in disguise! Don't try to fool me again!"
Yun Shu: "..."
