Sang Qian was startled and hurriedly called out: "Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?"
Unfortunately, no matter how she shouted, Zheng Dan was still writhing in pain and had no intention of waking up.
Zu An hurriedly stopped her, then held Zheng Dan's hand and slowly poured warm vitality into it.
Sang Qian didn't even care about the skin-to-skin contact between the two of them now. She just looked at Zheng Dan nervously, wanting to see if she would get better.
Zu An poured vitality into Zheng Dan's body continuously, but unfortunately the other party did not get better at all.
He frowned, and when he was puzzled, he suddenly noticed a biting coldness in the other party's body.
Because of Chu Chuyan, he was very familiar with ice elements, and he immediately recognized that this strange coldness was definitely not an ice element, but another familiar thing - ghosts and spirits.
In the previous experiences in the secret realm, he had encountered undead things several times, and even encountered the best ones like Xu Fu that had existed for tens of thousands of years. This feeling was almost exactly the same. Of course, compared to those big guys, at this time The yin and cold in Zheng Dan's body is much weaker.
Understanding this, Zu An hurriedly switched to running the "Hongmeng Yuanshi Jing" and injected the Hongmeng Qi into Zheng Dan's body. Hongmeng Qi is the most effective against Yin evil.
Sure enough, when I felt the Hongmeng Qi, the sinister Qi seemed to have encountered something terrible and instantly retreated into the depths.
Zu An naturally chased after him, and then he seemed to hear a scream in his ears, and the sinister aura disappeared instantly.
But Zu An couldn't be happy, because he felt that he had not succeeded in destroying the opponent, but instead let it escape.
This is no wonder for him. Almost all of the undead things he encountered before were transformed into spirits and basically had their own shapes. However, today's thing was too weak and formless, making it impossible for him to catch it.
At this moment, there was a cry in her arms. Zheng Dan had faintly woken up, but her forehead was covered with fine sweat, and even her back was wet with sweat. You can imagine how weak her body is now. .
Sang Qian considerately took out a handkerchief to wipe her sweat and asked hurriedly: "Sister-in-law, are you feeling better?"
Zheng Dan hummed, but still looked frightened.
Zu An asked hurriedly: "What happened just now?"
"I'm not sure," Zheng Dan's eyes were a little distracted, "I seemed to fall asleep quickly with you by my side, but then the terrible nightmare started again... I wanted to open my eyes, but I couldn't. It was as if there were countless hands pulling me into the abyss.”
"What is the specific content of your nightmare?" Zu An did not miss any details this time.
"I dreamed..." Zheng Dan's face turned red and he glanced at Sang Qian secretly, hesitating to speak.
Sang Qian was very angry, thinking that it was not convenient for our sister-in-law to talk to each other, so how could we tell an outsider?
She stood up expressionlessly: "I'm going to inform daddy and ask Brother Zu to take care of my sister-in-law here."
"Okay." Zu An had to admire how considerate this girl was.
After Sang Qian went out, Zheng Dan looked worried: "Xiao Qian seems to know what happened between us."
"Don't think blindly, it's okay." Zu An patted her hand and comforted her. In fact, he had a vague guess, but it would not be good if many things were revealed, "Please tell me quickly.
What nightmare did you have? "
Zheng Dan's pale face turned red, and she glanced at him angrily: "Didn't I dream that my affair with you was discovered by others, and then we were dragged into a pig cage, and everyone poked us in the back and scolded us? The Zheng family also suffered a disaster..."
Zu An: "..."
"Are there any ghosts or anything like that in your dream?"
"How do you know?" Zheng Dan exclaimed, "Usually in dreams, we managed to escape from prison and ran away, but everyone around us turned into ghosts and came to catch us."
Zu An thought that was indeed the case: "Then why didn't you say this just now?"
Zheng Dan was a little embarrassed: "How could you ask me to say this kind of thing in front of Xiaoqian? And at first I thought things like ghosts were ridiculous and there was no need to talk about it."
"But that's probably where the problem lies." Zu An said solemnly.
At this time, there were footsteps outside, and Sang Hong was notified and rushed over. Zheng Dan hurriedly got up from Zu An's arms. After all, she was still the daughter-in-law of the Sang family, and she still had to do some honorable work.
"Azu, what's going on?" After entering the house, Sang Hong did not enter the bedroom to avoid suspicion, but stayed outside and asked.
Zu An was also a little embarrassed, so he motioned to Zheng Dan to go out together, and then briefly explained what had just happened.
After listening to his description, Sang Hong was surprised: "It sounds like it's a victory-weary technique."
"The art of hating victory?" Zu An had never heard of this thing.
Sang Hong explained: "It is a kind of evil way that can suppress people or things with curses."
Zu An suddenly realized that it should be something similar to the witchcraft in previous lives.
"This technique is extremely sinister and vicious. In the early days, it often appeared in the harem competitions, and everyone used all possible means. Later, it was strictly prohibited by the court. Any books or figures about the victory-weary technique would be killed without mercy once they were discovered. , so the art of hating victory has disappeared in the capital for a long time, how come it suddenly appears again." Sang Hong looked solemn.
"Is there a solution?" Zu An asked hurriedly.
Sang Hong shook his head worriedly: "Because he has disappeared for so long, there are very few people who understand this thing now, let alone the solution. There are hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the capital, and there must be people who know the solution, but this is a taboo, worry Even if you know about the punishment from the court, you won’t dare to admit it.”
After learning about this background, Zu An thought that it was really difficult. I wonder if anyone in the academy knew about it. Based on my relationship with them, I should be able to ask them to help.
"By the way, what is the principle of the art of aversion to victory? Does it require the target's body or personal belongings?" Zu An asked. Similar curse methods in previous lives generally required the target's hair, nails, birth date or long-term If the art of hating victory is like this, it will be much easier to identify the murderer.
"That's not necessary. Generally speaking, practitioners will raise some evil things such as imps to harm people," Sang Hong had extraordinary knowledge and immediately explained, "It is said that the art of hating victory is passed down from the demon clan. The powerful ones from the demon clan can even kill people in their dreams."
"Monster clan?" Zu An was worried, and suddenly thought of the woman with red sleeves, "I probably already know how to solve it."
Sang Hong and his daughter looked at him in surprise, obviously not understanding why he came up with a solution so quickly.
Zu An said: "Dan... ahem, Miss Zheng, take a good rest here. The evil thing won't come back for a while after I scared it away just now. I'll go out for a while."
Zheng Dan bit her lip and shook her head. If the Sang family and her daughter hadn't been there, she would have even pulled the other party's sleeve.
Obviously after what she had just experienced, she no longer dared to stay alone and rest.
Zu An also had a headache. Seeing this, he said, "Okay, then you come with me."
Considering the reputation of the Sang family, he couldn't bring his young lady out alone, so he said to Sang Qian, "Xiaoqian, let's come too."
"Okay!" Sure enough, after hearing what he said, the faces of the Sang family's father and daughter looked much better.
Sang Hong said: "My dear nephew, do you need my help?"
Zu An smiled and said: "That's not necessary. You can ask uncle for help when you need it."
That place is really not convenient for an upright old man like him to go.
Sang Hong didn't have any doubts, but sighed: "My good nephew has always been reliable in doing things, so I can feel relieved."
At the same time, I felt a little sad. If Qian'er had half of his abilities, he wouldn't have ended up like that.
He was in a low mood, chatted for a few words and then left.
Only Zu An and the other three were left in the room. Sang Qian asked curiously: "Where are we going? Let's go now."
But Zu An remained motionless: "I'm afraid you need to change into a new set of clothes."
When Sang Qian heard that the other party asked her to change into men's clothes, Sang Qian was confused at first, but she immediately began to think: it should be to hide her whereabouts, firstly to avoid the mastermind behind the scenes from being noticed in advance, and secondly to avoid all kinds of rumors caused by her sister-in-law traveling with a foreign man.
Although I am not as gorgeous as my sister-in-law, I can still be considered a beauty. If we go out together on the street, we will easily attract too much attention.
So naturally she agreed without any objection. As for Zheng Dan, as long as she can stay with Zu An, she doesn't mind disguising herself as a man.
Sang Qian was originally going to look for men's clothing, but Zheng Dan said, "I have it here."
After all, she was the leader of a powerful gang in the past, and she still had all the equipment.
Sang Qian then drove Zu An to the outer room, where her aunt and sister-in-law hid and began to change their clothes.
When the two of them came out, Zu An's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but admire: "He has red lips and white teeth, and a handsome face. When he walks on the street, many girls will definitely turn their heads and wonder which handsome young man he is."
Sang Qian's face turned red, a little embarrassed by his praise, and she quickly said: "Let's go."
"Okay!" Zu An smiled a little weirdly, which made Sang Qian feel weird, but it didn't take long for her to understand why the other party smiled like this.
Looking at the eye-catching signboard of Hong Xiu Zhao in the distance, she trembled all over: "You brought us to a place like this?"
