"At this point, the old lady still has the mind to make up stories?!" Hu Da was somewhat surprised by the Lin family's reaction. After all, this was no small matter; nine of their great-grandchildren had already died young…
The entire Lin family is facing the prospect of being wiped out!
As an elder, she actually harbored wishful thinking, believing she could get away with it. Isn't that a bit too much...?
"Judging from what Hu Yue said, it seems that she asked her master to come down the mountain to handle this matter." Song Mengmeng lazily lay back on the back of the seat. Seeing that Yan Di had already put away his computer, she went over to snuggle up to him.
Yan Di reached out to shield the seemingly boneless little girl, making her more comfortable leaning against him. He wasn't actually that interested in the Lin family's affairs, but since the little girl had gotten involved, he didn't mind helping to keep an eye on things.
"Hu Yue's master?" Hu Da frowned slightly. She thought for a moment before speaking, "That's quite rare. Lin Xushan, the hermit of Qingcheng Mountain, hasn't come down the mountain for many years. It's really rare for him to come down for this matter!"
Having lived in this world for quite some time, Hu Da knew a thing or two about the so-called powerful exorcists of China. So when the topic came up, she had some recollection of them.
"Then let them handle it themselves." Emperor Yan reached out and ruffled the little girl's hair, chuckling, "Now that we're in the capital, shall I take you out to play?!"
"Where to?!" Song Mengmeng's eyes sparkled as she looked at Yan Di with anticipation. "I heard that Peking duck and hot pot in Beijing are really delicious!"
"How about we go get something nice to eat?"
"Go anywhere is fine, it's up to you." Emperor Yan was very easy to talk to; as long as the little girl was happy, he didn't care what she did.
Yan Di and Song Mengmeng had a completely relaxing two or three days in Beijing. They originally planned to leave on the fourth day and return to Beijing, but on the third night, when they were about to go to sleep, Yan Di received a call from Hu Yue.
Hu Yue's tone was somewhat heavy. She immediately brought Song Mengmeng some very unexpected news: Lin Jiaxian, the second son of the Lin family who was currently serving in the military, had encountered an accident and injured his leg in a car accident while on a mission; when the eldest son and his wife went to visit their son after receiving the news, their car slid down a valley...
"Now the whole family of three is lying in the hospital." Hu Yue sighed and whispered to Song Mengmeng about what had happened in the past few days: "The master came and asked about the Lin family, but the old lady insisted that what she said before was true."
Seeing that he couldn't get any results from the old lady, the master, in order to prevent things from getting worse, had no choice but to try to find a way to alleviate the power of the love spell. However, for some reason, the master's ritual failed, and he even suffered a backlash..."
Hu Yue hadn't expected the love spell to be so powerful, that even her master couldn't break it.
"I told you before, unless we can figure out the truth and find the right solution, it will be impossible to end this disaster by any other means!"
You probably know the old saying, "Those who do evil will not live long!"
What exactly happened to the Lin family? If that old lady is still trying to get away with it, then she can only wait for her children and grandchildren to perish one by one!
Song Mengmeng was not surprised at all by what happened to the Lin family after she left. Her tone was very calm, which was in stark contrast to Hu Yue's attitude on the other end of the phone.
Hu Yue remained silent for a while on the other end of the phone before speaking in a low voice: "I just asked the old lady from the Lin family again, and her attitude is still the same as before. She insists that she has not hidden any facts from us."
Regardless, I think the rest of the Lin family are innocent.
"Every wrong has its perpetrator, and every debt its debtor; you can't just take your anger out on strangers!"
"Whether they are outsiders or not is not something we can decide. To break the love spell, we must know what kind of vow that person from the Lin family made back then!"
If someone were to truly utter words like "breaking the oath and having no descendants," then if they were to take the oath now, every member of the Lin family would face certain death!
Song Mengmeng calmly interrupted Hu Yue's plea, and at the same time, she laid bare the cruelty of the situation in front of her.
As for how to choose next, that's a matter for the Lin family!
After hearing Song Mengmeng's warning, Hu Yue knew that there was no point in saying anything more. She sighed, chatted with Song Mengmeng for a few more minutes, and then hung up the phone.
Less than ten minutes after the call ended, Hu Yue called again!
It was obvious that Hu Yue was in a hurry this time. Song Mengmeng hadn't taken her phone with her when she went to the small kitchen to make juice, and when she came back, there were already seven or eight missed calls on her phone.
Just as she was wondering whether she should call Hu Yue, the phone vibrated again.
"Mengmeng, something has happened to the Lin family." As soon as the call connected, Hu Yue spoke urgently on the other end of the line without even hesitating: "A maid has died. If this maid hadn't instinctively pushed the Second Madam away, the Second Madam would be the one who got hit on the head by the flowerpot."
“There’s nothing we can do about it.” Song Mengmeng took a sip of juice and frowned slightly. “Instead of calling me, you should go find that old lady who’s full of lies.”
Let her tell the truth so we can address the problem effectively! Otherwise, even more people will die!
Song Mengmeng's words were not an exaggeration.
The environment around Hu Yue was a bit noisy, and it was unclear what Hu Yue was saying to that side. When she turned back to Song Mengmeng, she had regained her composure: "Mengmeng, the old lady said she's willing to tell the truth and asked if you can come over now?!"
If possible, I'll come pick you up.
Song Mengmeng stood up, tiptoed to the study door and peeked inside. She saw that Emperor Yan seemed to be in a meeting. After thinking for a moment, she quietly returned and said to Hu Yue, "I'll tell Emperor Yan, and then I'll come over with Hu Da."
Hu Yue gave her a few more instructions to be careful, and then hung up the phone.
Song Mengmeng first informed Hu Da that she was going out, then pulled out a sticky note, left a note for Yan Di, changed her clothes, and skipped out the door.
Hu Da picked up Song Mengmeng and drove straight to the Lin family's old house on the outskirts of Beijing.
It was already past 9:30 p.m., but from the outside, the Lin family's old house was still brightly lit and bustling with people coming and going.
