Chapter 446: I’m Not Even Afraid Of Ghosts

When Tang Li returned the way she came, she met a few more people on the way. There were men and women, but she did not see an old man or a child.

Perhaps because there were a few masters in town, they looked less worried. When some people saw Tang Li, they would remind her.

“Don’t go out at night. Don’t be curious when you hear the noise. You’ll be fine when the sun rises.”

While thanking them for the reminder, Tang Li would also ask what was going on.

However, these people were secretive about this matter and did not tell her at all.

When Tang Li met another person who was talking to her, she asked, “Is there an ancestral hall in a town like this?”

“Definitely. If not for our ancestor’s blessing, everyone in our town would have died long ago.”

Tang Li continued to ask, “Why with your ancestors’ blessing, this village is still cursed?”

This person stopped talking.

Tang Li did not ask further and slowly walked towards the rented house.

Halfway there, she saw Qi Yihan walk out from the corner opposite.

Tang Li quickly walked up to him and asked with a smile, “Yihan, why are you here?”

“I’m here to pick you up.”

Qi Yihan held her hand and the two of them walked towards the rented house.

Qi Yihan said, “Mr. Xu and Mr. Zhao came to look for you just now. When they saw that you weren’t around, they left and said they would come back in an hour.”

Tang Li nodded and said, “I just walked around to ask about the situation here…”

She told Qi Yihan what that woman had told her.

Qi Yihan frowned when he heard that.

Tang Li said, “What that woman knows might only be a part of it. If we want to know what happened at that time, the most direct way is to ask the patriarch’s family and the witch that the woman mentioned. I don’t think this witch is in this town anymore.”

Qi Yihan nodded.

After the two of them returned and had dinner with Butler Yang, Xu Guanhai and Zhao Guangyi came again.

Xu Guanhai told Tang Li, “Master Xuan and Master Wang were brought to the patriarch’s family by the mayor.”

Then, the two of them told Tang Li what they knew.

“It’s said that fifteen years ago, a witch came to town. This witch was very powerful. She could cure all kinds of illnesses and could even change fate. At that time, the youngest son of the patriarch’s family fell seriously ill and nothing could help him get better. Seeing that he was about to die, the witch married a girl she brought with her to him.”

Tang Li frowned. This was different from what she had heard before.

“Isn’t it said that the son of the patriarch’s family is dead and that woman was drowned to death?”

When Xu Guanhai and Zhao Guangyi heard that, they revealed a dumbstruck expression. Zhao Guangyi said with agitation. “Then let’s go to the patriarch’s family now to ask mayor if he was telling a lie.”

Tang Li took out two talismans and handed it to the two of them. “Take this talisman. I want to see if that man is dead or alive.”

Xu Guanhai took Tang Li’s talisman and looked at it. He praised, “As expected of the talisman drawn by Master Tang. It’s much more powerful than ours. When the matter here is settled, Master Tang, teach me.”

“And me.”

Tang Li nodded. “Sure.”

The two of them were happy and left with the talisman.

Tang Li and the other two sat in the living room and waited.

At this moment, no one said anything. Butler Yang sat there and felt inexplicably frustrated. In the end, he couldn’t help but say, “Is that woman my sister?”

Tang Li and Qi Yihan looked at him at the same time.

Butler Yang wanted to say something else, but he didn’t.

Tang Li said, “Let’s wait and see. No one knows for sure, but you have to be prepared for the worst.”

This was not the first time Tang Li said this. Although Butler Yang did not show it, his heart ached every time he heard it. The pain was like a blunt knife cutting into his heart, making it difficult for him to breathe.

After a while, he nodded.

The three of them waited for nearly twenty minutes. Tang Li suddenly took out a talisman and threw it into the air. The talisman suddenly disappeared, but the space seemed to be fluctuating. Soon, they saw Xu Guanhai and Zhao Guangyi, who had walked into the patriarch’s house with the talisman.

When the two of them walked in, the other two masters were sitting in the hall and talking to an old man who looked to be in his seventies and a middle-aged man in his fifties.

Beside the middle-aged man sat a middle-aged woman who was about his age.

The patriarch was that middle-aged man.

The mayor was not there.

Tang Li stared at the three of them without saying anything. Qi Yihan and Butler Yang did not say anything either.

After the two of them entered, the middle-aged man quickly stood up to welcome them. At the same time, he asked, “Masters, did you find anything?”

Xu Guanhai looked straight at the old man and asked, “I heard that all the elders in this town have passed away. Mr. Qian, you must be helped by a master, right? I wonder how that master helped you.”

The old man said, “All the elders in our town have indeed passed away, and I did receive help from a master.”

At this point, he took out a jade pendant. “This jade pendant was given to me by that master. He said that this jade pendant can protect me from disasters.”

Xu Guanhai walked over and took the jade. He looked at it and waved his finger. As expected, there was a black aura floating on the jade.

Only the masters and Tang Li could see this black smoke.

Xu Guanhai gave it to the other three masters to take a look.

The three of them knew what was going on.

However, they did not show it. At this moment, the old man asked Xu Guanhai, “Master, is there anything wrong with this jade?”

“No.” Xu Guanhai returned the jade to him without changing his expression. After walking over and sitting down, he asked, “I heard that your youngest son was also treated by a master more than ten years ago. Can you get him to come over?”

“Well…”

The old man and the patriarch looked hesitant. At this moment, the middle-aged woman suddenly spoke, her tone excited and sharp. “My youngest son doesn’t like to see strangers. Since you’re masters, can’t you just tell us what’s going on in our town?”

Xu Guanhai said seriously, “We are not God. If you don’t cooperate with us, we won’t be able to help your town.”

“My youngest son has been timid since he was young and doesn’t like to see strangers.”

These words made the four masters frown even more tightly.

It was obvious that this woman did not want them to know about her youngest son.

What did this mean? It meant that what happened in this town must have something to do with her youngest son.

Wang Chong’s face darkened as he reminded, “If you want the people in this town to not die, please cooperate with us.”

“How else do you want us to cooperate!” The middle-aged woman became even more agitated. She threw the teacup beside her to the ground. When the teacup was shattered into pieces, she stood up and shouted at them, “I think you’re all liars. If my youngest son doesn’t want to see you, then he won’t see you. If you don’t have the ability to find out what’s going on in our town, then leave.”

“Wu Cuihua, shut up!” The middle-aged man did not expect his wife to suddenly flare up, so he shouted at her.

Unexpectedly, not only did this shout not stop Wang Cuihua, but it also made her even more agitated. “Why should I shut up? It’s not like we haven’t had so-called masters in our town all these years. Which one of these masters managed to help us dispel the curse?”

When Wang Cuihua said that, the faces of the old man and middle-aged man darkened.

The middle-aged man asked, “Masters, my youngest son is very shy and has a bad temper. Why do you want to see him?”

“I heard that your youngest son died back then, so that witch brought a girl over to marry him?”

“Bullsh*t! How can my youngest son be dead! Which gossipy woman is talking nonsense about us? If I find out, I’ll tear her mouth apart!” Wang Cuihua shouted.

The old man and middle-aged man, on the other hand, had strange expressions on their faces.

Seeing them like this, the four masters knew that they would not cooperate with them.

The four of them subconsciously looked at each other and were about to stand up and leave when Xu Guanhai said, “We have to get to the bottom of what happened before we can help you. If you don’t cooperate, we can only look into it ourselves.”

With that, he stood up with the other three.

Without waiting for the patriarch to send them off, they walked out.

After the four of them left, Wang Cuihua spat and said, “These people are obviously liars. I don’t know which b*tch talked nonsense to them. If I find out, I’ll kill that b*tch.”

The middle-aged man shouted at her, “If I tell you to shut up, then shut up. If these people really can help us, you’ll regret it.”

“Why should I regret? I’m not even afraid of ghosts, let alone humans!” Wang Cuihua said with a twisted face and a grimace. She then walked away.

The middle-aged man sat back in his chair and remained silent.

At this moment, the old man said, “Find a way to get rid of these people. I feel uneasy with these people around.”

The middle-aged man nodded, stood up, and walked out.

Xu Guanhai and the others went straight to Tang Li’s place.

At this moment, it was almost dark. Other than them, everyone in town had gone home. All the doors were closed, and the street lamps were broken.

The four of them walked on the street. Because it was too quiet, their footsteps were very loud. The few of them did not mind. At this moment, they were all thinking about something.

When Xu Guanhai suddenly felt a chill on his nose, he suddenly realized, “It’s indeed snowing.”

The mayor had told them about the snow at night. When they saw that the snow that fell on them turned red, their expressions turned solemn.
