Zhou Yichen quickly asked, "Master, did you notice something strange?"
"Sure. I felt this place was extremely eerie as soon as I entered the door."
"I'd like to hear the details." Zhou Yichen suddenly became interested in Jun He and listened attentively with a serious look on his face.
"The feng shui here is excellent, but this feng - shui layout violates a major taboo. Look, before entering the door, on the left and right stone pillars outside the main gate, there are twin dragons coiled. But on closer inspection, they are not real dragons but jiaos."
"A jiao is also a dragon, isn't it?" Zhou Yichen asked puzzledly.
"A jiao is also called a demonic dragon. Although it resembles a dragon in appearance, there are several differences. A jiao is about three meters long, looking like a dragon but without horns. Above the jiao's eyes, there are protruding lumps that cross between the eyes. Take a look at the 'dragons' on the stone pillars just now. The area between their eyes is exactly the same as that of a jiao. Moreover, jiaos love water and usually live underwater all year round. Now confining them on the stone pillars is already an extremely inauspicious omen."
"It's the twelfth lunar month now, with snow falling from the sky. But not a single trace of snow is left in this huge manor."
As soon as Jun He finished speaking, he jumped out of the car. The driver, the butler, was startled and quickly hit the brakes, stopping the car on the road. I and Zhou Yichen followed suit and got out of the car.
Jun He squatted down and grabbed a handful of soil. It was a mixture of black and white with white lime in it.
"As I guessed. I was still wondering just now why they didn't use such a large piece of land and instead planted the trees in vases. It was a redundant move. It turns out that there's a layer of lime - soil beneath."
"Now look at the villa in front. The fog lingers and is hard to disperse. Sunlight can hardly penetrate. The moisture and yin energy have gathered into pools. The combination of yin and moisture forms a typical pattern of a lucky land with an inauspicious burial."
"There must be something shady buried under this land."
After Jun He finished speaking, a large group of men in suits came from not far away.
The middle - aged man walking in the middle, who looked to be in his forties or fifties, was, if I guessed correctly, Ling Chuchu's father - Ling Feng.
When Zhou Yichen saw this man, he stood up and greeted him, saying, "Uncle Ling, why did you come out in person?"
"Could I not come in person? Yichen, you said you invited a shaman. Where is the shaman?"
"It's her, my junior schoolmate, Lan Chiyu. And this is..."
"He's my companion. His name is Jun He." I interrupted Zhou Yichen because I didn't want him to expose Jun He's identity.
Zhou Yichen was very smart and immediately understood my meaning, so he didn't ask any more questions.
Ling Feng looked at me in surprise, "Can this little girl do it?"
"Don't underestimate her. She can drive you crazy when she cries..." Jun He said impatiently.
I gave him a fierce glare and poked him hard in the abdomen with my elbow. He instinctively stepped back to dodge.
"Uncle Ling, don't worry. My junior schoolmate will definitely be able to help."
Ling Feng looked at me again and said, "Alright. Now we can only treat a dead horse as a live one. Hurry up and go take a look at Chuchu. She... she seems to have gone crazy."
After saying that, we followed Ling Feng into the villa. As Jun He had said, the fog here lingered and didn't disperse. The cold and damp feeling clung to our faces, which was extremely uncomfortable.
Ling Feng didn't dare to stay for a moment. He led us straight to Ling Chuchu's bedroom.
At this moment, the servants in the room were so scared that they huddled in the corner and didn't dare to make a sound.
Ling Chuchu's room was very large. When we entered the bedroom, we didn't see Ling Chuchu.
"Where is Chuchu?" Ling Feng asked the servant beside him angrily.
A servant hiding in the corner pointed under the bed and said, "Sorry, sir. I... I quit."
After saying that, all the servants in the room followed her and ran out.
Seeing them run away, Ling Feng got even angrier. He rushed to the end of the bed aggressively, yanked the bed sheet hard, and revealed Ling Chuchu under the bed.
At this moment, Ling Chuchu was lying under the bed, biting something. Her face was covered in blood, and there were pieces of raw meat stuck between her teeth. Taking a closer look, it was a dead white cat that had been bled. Her body was wrapped around the cat's body, as if she were a soft - bodied animal. It looked extremely terrifying.
When Ling Chuchu saw Ling Feng, her tongue protruded out. It was forked, just like a snake's. Her four fangs were extremely sharp.
"Hiss hiss hiss..." Immediately after, she let out a warning sound. She lifted her body, and her head rushed towards Ling Feng like a cobra.
"Be careful..." Zhou Yichen quickly stepped forward, grabbed Ling Feng's arm, and pulled him aside.
Ling Chuchu bypassed the dead cat's body and crawled out from under the bed. Her body curved and crawled on the ground at a very fast speed. The clothes under her body left a winding blood - line, and the floor was covered in blood.
Her pair of blood - red vertical pupils were exactly the same as a snake's. Her blood - red pupils turned and fixed on Zhou Yichen's body.
She let out another shrill scream. Her speed was like a bullet being fired. Zhou Yichen had no time to dodge.
"Jun He..." I shouted.
Jun He received the order and his figure teleported. He quickly drew a talisman on his palm and raised his hand to slap Ling Chuchu on the forehead.
Seeing this, Ling Chuchu showed surprise on her face. Then she turned around and showed her four fangs as she attacked me.
I quickly retreated backward. I had already prepared a talisman paper in my hand. When Ling Chuchu rushed towards me, I chanted the incantation and quickly pushed the talisman paper out.
I waved my hand forcefully. Before the talisman paper could stick to Ling Chuchu's body, her foot had been grabbed by Jun He. He gave a hard tug and threw her out.
At this moment, Jun He was no longer the harmless - looking guy he had seemed before. I didn't know what had angered him, but two black rings burst out around his body.
The black rings crossed and circled around him. A howling demonic wind blew. This kind of aura was demonic and chilling.
Ling Chuchu twisted her body. Seeing such a demonic lord, she was already scared out of her wits.
She turned around and was about to escape through the window, but it was too late. Her body uncontrollably retreated at high speed. The black rings around Jun He seemed to have an inherent suction force for such demonic creatures.
As soon as Ling Chuchu's back touched the black rings, a sound like frying meat came out.
Black smoke rose from her back. She let out an agonized howl. The sound echoed in the bedroom, sounding extremely miserable. The shrill scream with a demonic aura disappeared, and now it was Ling Chuchu's wail.
"Dad... save me. I don't want to die." Ling Feng was anxious but didn't dare to step forward to stop it.
At the same time, a middle - aged woman rushed into the room. Seeing Ling Chuchu's current situation, she quickly rushed forward to pull Ling Chuchu.
However, the force of the black rings was too strong. As soon as she rushed forward, she was bounced back.
She fell to the ground in pain, pressing her chest, and shouted at Ling Feng hoarsely, "Chuchu, what are you doing? Ling Feng... Don't you know your own strength? Did you invite a shaman or a demon king? He's not a shaman at all. He's a demon. He will kill Chuchu."
