"Isn't it said that this place is filled with ghosts at night? What on earth were you thinking? Why did you have to come at night? Do you know how bad my luck is?"
Gu Yunni and the Imperial Master remained very calm in this situation and said nothing.
Sheng Mingyu glanced at him and said, "Be brave. Don't you believe in Yun Ni's ability? You should have found out everything before going to Kyoto. Yun Ni is not the kind of person who talks big."
Qin Yanchen was unconvinced. "I believe it, but I'm afraid in my heart. I'm afraid of whatever you say."
"Coward!" Sheng Mingyu muttered and stopped arguing with Qin Yanchen.
Not only Qin Yanchen was nervous, Sheng Mingyu was also uneasy, mainly because he did not know any mysterious arts.
"Yun Ni, it's dark outside. I can't see the road clearly, so I might cause you trouble."
Gu Yunni shook her head. "It's okay. Just follow me. I can protect you. There aren't that many ghosts in the west of the city. I think someone is causing trouble."
She had been very nervous just now, but now she felt much more relaxed when talking to Sheng Mingyu.
The Imperial Master also took a deep breath. He had thought it would be a big problem, but now it seemed that it was nothing more than this.
Gu Yunni had no way to discuss these things with Sheng Mingyu, so she could only ask the Imperial Master, "What do you think? Can you really believe what that auntie said? Could it be that someone behind the scenes deliberately let her leak it? There's not much of a problem in the west of the city. I haven't sensed any ghost presence yet."
She wanted to ask the imperial teacher for his opinion.
The Imperial Master shook his head, he still believed in his own judgment.
"I don't think so. These past few days, the people and I have heard roughly the same thing. He can bribe one person, but he can't bribe everyone."
Gu Yunni discussed the Imperial Master's words, "Then tell me, why didn't we hear any sound this time? We couldn't even sense a single presence. Could it be that the person knew we were coming to the west of the city and moved everything out?"
According to the national teacher's idea, there should be someone watching them all the time.
It’s creepy to think about it.
I hadn't even noticed it the whole time.
This guy is quite capable, at least he has a lot of informants.
"That's probably the case. There's another possibility. That person has withdrawn since we arrived in Anyuan County and hasn't continued to cause trouble in the west of the city."
What Gu Yunni said made a lot of sense, and the Imperial Master agreed.
Even if they are not sharp, the people under Sheng Mingyu should be sharp, and probably no one is watching them.
It's just that the person behind this is too cautious. Since they set foot in Anyuan County, this place has no longer been haunted.
Gu Yunni curled her lips. She thought that she came to Anyuan County to show her skills, but she had been busy for many days and still hadn't seen the other party.
Are they cowards? Why are they hiding so well?
"I remember that lady mentioned this morning that there's a City God Temple in the west of the city, and that's where the noise is the loudest. Why don't we go check it out? We're already here, so we can't miss this clue."
The Imperial Master nodded, agreeing with Gu Yunni's suggestion. "Alright, let's go check it out. That's the last place we should go. If we don't find anything there, we'll probably have to go somewhere else."
He was not as relaxed as Gu Yunni. The more tightly the person behind him hid, the bigger his ambition was.
Qin Yanchen wanted to say something but hesitated, but was embarrassed to disturb Gu Yunni's interest, so he had to bite the bullet and follow along.
"This place is a little different. It has a strong yin energy and I can even feel the presence of ghosts. I guess these people just left before we arrived."
This time it was not a complete failure, I still got some information.
Although it was not particularly important, at least they were sure that the person behind it was still in the city.
"They really just left. Touch the teacup next to you; it's still warm. How could a deserted City God Temple be decorated so magnificently?"
Gu Yunni suddenly became excited. Finally, she had something to do.
"Should we go after them? They just left, so they're probably not far away. If the four of us split up, we might be able to find them."
The Imperial Master shook his head, feeling concerned. "Let's not go. It doesn't matter if we catch up to them, but what about them? We are most powerful together. If we separate, we will be in danger."
Since we brought Sheng Mingyu and Qin Yanchen out, of course we have to ensure their safety.
After thinking about it, Gu Yunni nodded and said, "Then let's take a look inside the house. They were able to retreat so quickly, so there must be a passage. Let's check if there is a secret passage."
"Okay." Sheng Mingyu and Qin Yanchen did not lag behind. After listening to Gu Yunni's words, they walked around the house to check if there was an underground passage.
After searching for a long time, even Sheng Mingyu was wondering if he had made a wrong judgment, but then he heard a sound coming from Gu Yunni's side.
"Here it is! Hard work pays off, I finally found the passage, but there's no one there."
Gu Yunni's tone was excited. If they hurt the people, they would have to pay the price.
When the Imperial Master heard this, he immediately stopped them, "Don't go down! Do you know what those people are thinking? What if they plant some hidden dangers for you? Stay away from them, don't go down without even getting on the ground."
Gu Yunni was helpless. Why did she feel that the Imperial Master always treated her like a child?
"Don't worry, I'm not stupid. How could I possibly go down there? I'm just a little curious. Why are they running so fast? Could someone be following us?"
The Imperial Master was very perceptive and had been feeling uneasy ever since he arrived in Anyuan County.
The master of the mysterious arts behind this is related to him. If he doesn't solve this trouble, he will not be able to sleep.
"No, I can't sense any aura around me, and he can only control ghosts. You can sense the aura of ghosts, so how could someone follow you?"
Gu Yunni nodded. "That makes sense. What about now? If we don't go down, what else can we do? I don't want to stagnate and miss these clues."
She also wanted to know this person. How powerful was he? He could actually replace the Imperial Master and become the favorite of His Majesty.
The atmosphere fell silent, and Sheng Mingyu and Qin Yanchen didn't dare to speak.
The atmosphere became increasingly heavy, and just when Sheng Mingyu was about to speak to persuade them, a little ghost suddenly appeared beside him.
"Everyone, don't be so entangled. Our boss asked me to come here and tell you that if you know the rules, don't pursue it further. He has no intention of harming the lives of innocent people."
Sheng Mingyu and the others could see it, but Qin Yanchen could not see anything.
The feeling of being excluded is really terrible.
Qin Yanchen tightly grasped Sheng Mingyu's hand, as if asking for help, "Hey, don't scare me, don't you know any mystical arts? Why can you see ghosts? Tell me a method, and let me see it too? Otherwise, I will feel uneasy."
