Chapter 42 The Power of the Bad Luck Talisman

"Since everything is under your control, I won't say much and will leave first."

"Don't worry! There will be absolutely no accidents."

Aunt Xu covered her mouth, but she still made a promise.

The mysterious man thought Aunt Xu was a little strange tonight, but he didn't think much about it.

Aunt Xu was cultivated by him, and she was willing to sacrifice her life for him, so how could he doubt her!

Besides, he still had grand ambitions in his heart, so naturally he had no time to look at the face of a chess piece.

The mysterious man got the information he wanted and left.

Qiao Niannian brushed her palm across the water, and the water surface returned to normal.

She took out the teleportation talisman, flashed behind the mysterious man, hid a piece of talisman paper into the mysterious man's body, and then passed through the wall and left.

The mysterious man's running figure paused, and he felt as if there was something on his back.

The mysterious man turned his head suddenly, and there was nothing behind him. He frowned and left the mansion quickly.

At the moment he left the mansion, his toes touched the wall and he could fly out of the mansion directly.

At the moment he touched the wall, the distance was only a fist away, and the mysterious man missed his step and fell from mid-air. He fell

to the ground with a "bang", followed by a scream.

The scream was quick and short.

He might have been caught off guard at first, so he screamed, and then he covered his mouth immediately because he was afraid of being discovered.

But the sound still alarmed the people in the mansion.

The next moment, torches were lit in the yard.

The mysterious man's face turned green.

Who on earth put so many mousetraps under the wall? He just fell down and was caught by seven or eight mousetraps at once.

His fingers were almost broken.

The mysterious man had three mousetraps in his two hands.

He moved a little, and his fingers seemed to be broken.

Seeing the guards in the mansion rushing over here, the mysterious man did not dare to stay and immediately turned over to leave.

He didn't care about the mousetraps in his hands, nor the mousetraps on his butt and feet. He

jumped up directly, grabbed the wall with one hand, and was about to flip over.

Unfortunately, the stone on the wall loosened for some reason. He endured the pain and grabbed it, and broke the stone off directly. He

fell to the ground again, his hands, feet, and butt hurt.

Then, the stone fell down, paused for a moment after landing on the man's head, and then rolled down from the man's head.

The mysterious man was hit and screamed "Ah...".

The next moment, he felt something flowing down. He

reached out and wiped it, and it was bleeding.

The mysterious man regretted it.

Why did he sneak into the Marquis' Mansion for no reason? The Marquis' Mansion must have been beset by the plague god, causing him so much misfortune.

From a distance, Qiao Niannian watched this scene in a good mood.

This man thought her Marquis' Mansion was a place where he could come and go as he pleased. It

was wishful thinking.

She wanted him to think of the Marquis' Mansion in the future, and that would scare him!

The snake demon lying on Qiao Niannian's arm looked at the miserable state of the man and couldn't help but speak: "What did you put on him just now?"

"Nothing, just a bad luck talisman."

The snake demon laughed in his heart and swore that he would never mess with this woman again in his life.

In the distance, the guards of the Marquis' Mansion had already rushed over with torches.

The mysterious man had no time to deal with the wound on his head. He used Qinggong again and tapped his toes lightly.

At this point, his toes were almost broken.

I don't know where this mousetrap was bought from. The mousetrap is big and the teeth are big. It pierced into the bone through the shoes. Every time he moved, it was painful.

The mysterious man suspected that his foot was useless.

But did he dare to delay?

I dare not.

Compared to losing my life, the pain of a broken toe is not unbearable. He

endured the pain, jumped up, and grabbed the wall with both hands.

The mysterious man was afraid that the stone would fall off again, so this time he not only used both hands, but also used a lot of strength.

This force allowed him to hold the wall firmly, but also made the mousetrap in his hand pierce into the bone a little.

The mysterious man was sweating coldly.

He endured the pain and was about to turn over and leave the mansion.

The wall made the mysterious man feel like he had walked out of the end of the world.

At this moment, the gate of the courtyard was kicked open.

The guards rushed in.

Seeing the man in black climbing the wall, he raised his knife and chopped at him without saying a word.

"Swish swish" two knives, both chopped on the mysterious man's legs.

The mysterious man gritted his teeth and climbed out of the mansion.

When the guards saw the man running away, they immediately waved their hands: "Brothers, chase him for me."

The guards split into two groups, seven or eight of them climbed the wall and chased him away, and the rest left through the main gate.

The mysterious man jumped down from the wall of the mansion. He immediately sealed his acupuncture points to stop the bleeding on his legs, and then stumbled out of the alley.

Perhaps it was because of the noise here, Qiao Chushan and Huo followed him out.

The two saw Qiao Niannian and immediately stepped forward.

"Niannian, why are you still outside? A thief just broke into the mansion. Are you okay?"

Qiao Niannian smiled and shook her head, but she felt cold in her heart.

[What thief, Dad, that's the one who cheated on you. ]

Qiao Chushan: ...

What green hat, don't talk nonsense.

He never liked Xu.

Mrs. Huo was trying not to laugh.

She suddenly felt it was a pity.

It would be nice if Qiao Chushan could also hear her daughter's thoughts.

She really wanted to see how aggrieved this bastard would be when he heard her daughter's thoughts.

Unfortunately, this bastard is not so lucky and cannot hear.

Qiao Niannian did not think too much about it. She looked at her mother and raised her eyebrows slightly.

[This mysterious man has decided to get rid of my mother after meeting Xu, so my mother's bloody disaster should be related to this mysterious man. ]

[But the guards have already chased him out, and my mother's bloody disaster has not changed. Could it be that they didn't catch the person? ]

[Let me think about what happened! ]

Qiao Niannian recalled the plot.

This happened too long ago, and she almost forgot it.

In the novel, the scene where Xu met the mysterious man was only mentioned in a few words. The

mysterious man was very good at Qinggong and could come and go freely in the Marquis' Mansion.

She remembered that the mysterious man had been hiding in Baihua Tower, one of the four brothels in the capital.

Although Baihua Tower was a brothel, it was supported by the Duke's Mansion. The women in Baihua Tower were all carefully selected and were good at reciting poems, composing couplets, playing musical instruments and singing.

The guests who patronized the brothel were also prominent nobles.

It was said that some people even kept their mistresses in Baihua Tower. They only needed to pay a fixed amount of money every month and the other party would worship the women as their ancestors.

This led to a complex power network in Baihua Tower, and no one dared to offend him easily. The guards chased the mysterious man, but due to the majesty of Baihua Tower, they could not break in to investigate.

[No wonder the guards couldn't catch the mysterious man, it turns out that the man hid in Baihua Tower.]

[What should we do? If we can't catch him, my mother will be in danger.]

Qiao Niannian knows the mysterious arts and can easily catch the mysterious man, but if she forcibly changes the fate of her relatives, she will be retaliated by the way of heaven.

If she catches the mysterious man, she can temporarily relieve the blood disaster of the Huo family, but then the Huo family will face greater danger.

This is a check and balance for people of metaphysics.

If people of metaphysics can just do whatever they want and directly change the fortunes of the family, isn't this going to mess things up!

Ordinary people can still remind their parents that they are in danger.

Qiao Niannian is stuck with a bug.

As long as it is about things written in the book, she can't say it.

This is very uncomfortable.

Qiao Chushan heard this and narrowed his eyes.

He didn't mind if this man cheated on him.

But if he dared to hurt his wife, he would not do that.

Qiao Chushan summoned all the guards to gather, then took the knife and led the people to kill.
