It was also unexpected that the old man of the Sun family was so repulsive.
Even if he felt resentful about being expelled, it shouldn't have been so intense. Or rather, he had been hostile and extremely wary since the strangers appeared here, and this hostility reached its peak after he knew their identities.
Such a reaction cannot help but arouse suspicion.
Xie Chen looked at Mo Qin, and seeing that she was not at all uncomfortable with Mr. Sun's angry shouting, he continued:
"We also heard that you are quite prestigious here, and guessed that you must be concerned about the people of Fuliu Town, so we rashly came to you to seek your help, but we didn't expect..."
What you hear is not as good as what you see.
It turns out to be just a name.
The rest of the words were not spoken, but Mr. Sun also understood what was meant.
He now realized that his attitude had been too extreme. He frowned and pondered for a few seconds before returning to his seat.
"I'm sorry, I just thought of my father when I heard that name, so I lost my composure."
No one from the department has been to Fuliu Town for fifty or sixty years, and there has been nothing worth their visit in the town recently, so he couldn't help but think too much.
His cloudy eyes moved slightly, and his gaze swept over the two young men.
Probably not.
There is no way that two young kids could know what happened back then.
Mr. Sun sorted out his thoughts and sighed:
"My father served the ministry diligently, but in the end, he was stigmatized and completely expelled. I feel... ashamed, ashamed."
The subsequent conversation went smoothly, but it was mainly Xie Chen and Old Man Sun who were talking. Mo Qin just sat there without saying a word, listening attentively. It was not until more than an hour later that the two of them stood up and said goodbye.
After leaving the Sun family's gate, the two still felt that there was a pair of eyes watching them from behind.
That feeling completely disappeared until no trace of the Sun family's roof could be seen.
Mo Qin and Xie Chen had dinner outside before returning to the hotel. It was already afternoon.
Mo Qin took out a piece of white paper and placed it on the table, writing and drawing on it with a pen.
"From the time we entered the Sun House until we left, we only went to the living room closest to the main door. We had never seen the rest of the place."
Mo Qin finished drawing the last stroke on the paper, and a map of the Sun family's old house was completed.
"The most likely places are these two."
Mo Qin circled two places on the map with a red pen.
This is the main purpose of the two people going to the Sun family today. If they can find clues from the two elders of the Sun family during the day, it would be better. If not, they will get the terrain map and explore at night.
However, the gaze the two of them felt later did not feel like the gaze of a living person at all.
Although the Sun family has tried their best to cover it up, the cold and gloomy atmosphere is still impossible to ignore. There are probably some other things in the house besides three people.

night.
Old Master Sun sat sideways on the edge of the bed, his wrinkled feet soaked in hot water.
Old Mrs. Sun wiped his feet with a towel and quietly looked up at Old Mr. Sun who was resting.
"Those two young men who came today, didn't they discover something?"
Mr. Sun didn't even raise his eyelids, and his hoarse voice was filled with contempt:
"Tsk~ What can two little brats, wet behind the ears, do?"
"Are you still afraid that they will come back to kill you?"
"If you dare to come back, you won't be afraid of not coming back."
The old man's energy is always in fits and starts, he gets tired easily, but he sleeps lightly at night.
Late at night.
Old man Sun was suddenly awakened by a few sharp noises. It was pitch black around him without a trace of light. Only the occasional snoring beside him was hammering at his nerves.
He listened attentively for a while, and heard a loud noise coming from the ancestral hall, probably because of some uninvited guests.
Thinking of the small statues guarding the ancestral hall, a slight cold arc appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Come on, come on.
It's just some food that will fill your teeth.
When he was in a good mood, even the air seemed to become fresher. He seemed to smell a very pleasant scent, and then fell into a deep sleep.

Crunch——
The wooden door of the bedroom was pushed open from the outside.
Two slender figures came in from outside the door. After confirming that the people in the house showed no signs of waking up, the two figures gradually gained courage.
Although she knew that the two people in the room would not wake up so easily, in such an environment, Mo Qin still subconsciously lowered her voice.
"I didn't expect that this old man Sun actually raised so many good things in the ancestral hall. It's really a huge surprise."
The two most suspicious places are the ancestral hall and the bedroom.
If you have to choose between the two, of course you would go to the empty ancestral hall first.
Other people's ancestral halls enshrine their ancestors, but the Sun family's is different. There is a group of tablets in the middle, and on both sides are small clay statues that seal evil spirits.
Fortunately, they were well prepared, and the small statues were broken by the two men before they could last more than a few rounds.
What Old Man Sun heard just now was just a recording, mixed with the fragrance of his dream, and he was now sleeping soundly.
The bedroom is quite large, and the furnishings inside are very exquisite, very much in line with Feng Shui.
The entire wall on the left is made into a wardrobe, but only half of the wardrobe is filled with clothes, while the other half is empty with a secret door inside.
The two of them opened the secret door and went in as if they were in an empty place.
Behind the secret door is a windowless room.
There was only a table inside, with two white candles as thick as wrists lit on the table. The yellow flames were tinged with a hint of blue and burned quietly.
There was a square box placed in the center of the table, with talisman paper pasted all around the box, but the runes were already fading.
On the wall behind the table hung a painting of a handsome man wearing a sky-blue robe.
It was none other than Hao Yinjun, whom Mo Qin had met not long ago.
Mo Qin walked forward and looked at the line of small words on the painting, which contained some information about Hao Yinjun.
You don’t know until you see it, and you’ll be shocked when you see it.
Hao Yinjun was actually the husband of a girl from the Sun family hundreds of years ago!
Then I thought that Hao Yinjun would be with Sun Yiling in the future, and live happily with the man of her ancestor.
Bullfrog.
And what was in that box was a part of Hao Yinjun's body. According to the records...
It's a skull.
Mo Qin shifted his gaze to the box containing the skull. The black box was spotless, and the old wood was solid and a little cold.
"We're taking this away, right?"
It is actually quite troublesome to kill Hao Yinjun completely.
If the skull is destroyed directly, Hao Yinjun will be seriously injured, but he will be able to escape.
If the skull is not destroyed, Hao Yinjun will be almost immortal. When his life is hanging by a thread, he will be forcibly teleported to where the skull is.
If we want to solve the problem completely, we need to take action on both sides at the same time and leave Hao Yinjun with no way to retreat.
