In the Wei family's courtyard, Liu Jing's face was livid.
"Someone touched the magic circle in my house! Could it be that boy Song Xin?" The first one suspected Song Xin.
He stood up with a roar and opened the door. The guard in the courtyard saw the door of the master's room open, and Liu Jing walked out with a gloomy look. He felt bad, "Master, you...?"
"The magic circle in my house has been touched. I have to rush back immediately. Otherwise, after tonight, your Wei family will be wiped out by the puppets."
"What!?" Wei Qi was shocked. His legs were so weak that he could barely stand up. He thought the master had just set up a warning circle, but he didn't expect it to be such a big trouble. He only heard that ghosts can suck people. Essence and blood ruined luck, but I didn't expect it to be so cruel.
"Old man, you actually put such a cruel ghost in my home!" Wei Qi's face turned extremely ugly, but he didn't dare to say a word because he was afraid of Liu Jing. He just cursed in his heart. His parents and sisters were still at home. , and now they are all in danger.
"I want to go back immediately and see what's going on."
Liu Jing had a gloomy face. He saw Wei Qi's face turning red and white, and a suspicion arose in his heart. Could it be that he secretly let people into the house to steal things?
"If I find out that it was really you who instigated this, I will simply let Xiao Puppet destroy your whole family." Liu Jing secretly calculated.
Wei Qi was also very anxious, "Master, my disciple will go back with you."
"You don't have to, just wait for me here. Just ask Tuoshan to follow me."
"What? Him?"
"Yes." Liu Jing ignored Wei Qi who was in a daze and called out. A person heard the sound and came out from another room.
...
In Song Xin's room, he was looking blankly at the water mirror, "Just...what was it just now..." He seemed to see a black shadow, flashing away, and then the servant disappeared with a cry Didn't even hear it.
Yu Ji sighed: "It's an evil puppet guarding the house. If he doesn't come back to deal with it, the whole Wei family will probably suffer."
"Why did Liu Jing do this? Where is the servant?" Song Xin was a little confused.
"The servant bleeds, and the evil puppet will naturally go crazy when he smells the blood. Liu Jing did this just because he can't trust the Wei family. He is on guard against Wei Qi sending people to steal things. Once the magic circle is touched, the ferocious puppet will be angered. The evil puppet will go on a killing spree tomorrow night." Yu Ji said lightly and put away the water mirror.
"Why can't Shui Jing see his room?"
"Well, the formation Liu Jing set up in the room can hinder the water mirror's detection. The evil puppet should be on guard against you, but he doesn't want the Wei family to enjoy it first."
"This person is really cautious and cruel. I'm afraid Liu Jing will come back tomorrow."
Song Xin also guessed it and nodded nervously.
When I opened my eyes the next day, I heard the sound of many people walking around in the yard. When I opened the door, I saw the white-bearded Manager Zheng. He was ordering people to search around the yard with a nervous look on his face. No need to guess, he must be here to find that servant.
Seeing Song Xin and Tuo Ye coming out, the old man stared at them and asked sternly: "Did you hear anything last night?"
Song Xin pretended to be confused, shook his head and said, "We went to bed very early, and according to Master Liu's instructions, we are not allowed to go out at night."
Seeing Song Xin's sincere face, the old man glared at Tuoye and asked sternly: "What about you?"
Tuo Ye said: "Someone was barking outside, and later I heard it was a wild cat."
"Wild cat?" The old steward was doubtful.
"Master Steward, do we want to search Master Liu's house?" A servant came over and asked.
The old man thought for a while and said, "Master Liu is not here at the moment. Let's go in and take a look in case someone goes in and steals." Manager Zheng also deliberately glanced at Song Xin and Tuo Ye, as if they were thieves.
The servants all understood that this old man just wanted to find an excuse to go in and find someone. After getting a positive answer, he waved to the others and entered Liu Jing's house.
Song Xin hurriedly stopped him and said, "Master Liu said that no one can enter his house."
The old steward frowned and said impatiently: "We went to check if anything was lost. What's wrong? Are you afraid? Did you steal something?!"
Song Xin secretly scolded the old man for being really shameless, "What am I afraid of? If Master Liu comes back to blame, don't blame me for not persuading you."
The old steward cursed in a low voice: "You bastard, you are scaring me with Master Liu again. I will make you look good in the future." He waved to the hesitant servants.
After receiving the order, the servants immediately pushed open the door of Liu Jing's room and stepped in.
Suddenly, the first servant who entered let out a miserable scream, and then his body flew out of the room. The old steward was caught off guard and was hit by the figure. The two of them rolled into a ball, in a state of embarrassment.
"How dare you break into my house!?"
Song Xin was also shocked when he saw this scene, knowing that Liu Jing was back. What surprised him was that behind Liu Jing was Tuoshan. At this time, he was dressed as a warrior, with a knife on his waist. He was majestic, pale, and had heavy dark circles under his eyes. He was following Liu Jing like a King Kong. Behind Jing.
Seeing Tuoshan, Tuoye finally couldn't hold himself back and hurriedly ran a few steps to Tuoshan's side, saying with tears in his eyes: "Shan... you..."
"Go back!" Tuoshan had a cold look on his face and shouted sharply at Tuoye, as if he was scolding a stranger.
"Shan, what's wrong with you?"
"Go back." Tuoshan scolded him again, with no joy at seeing her again on his face.
Tuoye was dumbfounded. He didn't know whether he was sad or shocked, and his body was stiff. She didn't understand why Tuoshan, who was usually so protective of him, would treat her like this.
Song Xin was also stunned. Tuoshan was just being cruel to others, but why would he be so cruel to Tuoye?
Seeing that Tuoshan's hand was already pressed on the handle of the knife, it seemed that he was about to draw the knife and chop it off at any time, without any hesitation.
Song Xin quickly stepped forward and dragged Tuoye to the door of the cabin. The girl turned her head and looked at Tuoshan in disbelief. He was obviously a relative who took great care of her, but why did he feel so strange at the same time?
At this time, Liu Jing walked over slowly, and the atmosphere in the yard suddenly cooled down.
"It seems that he came back in a hurry, and his energy and blood have not fully recovered." Seeing that Liu Jing's face was still a little pale, and there were still a few bright silver strands in the blue hair of his hair, he looked at least dozens of years older.
Liu Jing glanced at the old steward and said, "What do you want to do when you enter my house?"
"Liu... Master Liu, I am... worried that this little thief has stolen Master Liu's..." After saying this, he pointed at Song Xin.
"You don't need to tell me." Liu Jing glanced at the old steward, making him tremble.
At this time Tuoshan bowed respectfully to Liu Jing and strode into Liu Jing's house. After a while, he actually lifted a human skeleton out with one hand.
In an instant, the temperature in the entire courtyard seemed to drop a few degrees, and everyone present was too frightened to speak.
This skeleton was obviously dead recently, and there were still unrotted skin, flesh and hair on the bones. The torn pieces of cloth on his body could vaguely be seen to be the clothes of the servants of the Wei family.
With a crash, Tuoshan expressionlessly threw the skeleton in front of the old steward. At this time, Liu Jing said, "Are you looking for him?"
"He...he is..."
"Hmph, this man entered my house privately last night. Was it your instigation?"
"Master Liu, please spare your life!" The old steward was so frightened that he knelt down and kowtowed as if pounding garlic to beg for mercy.
"The villain suspected that this kid went to the kitchen to eat secretly at night, so he asked him to check, but he didn't expect..."
"I asked you to deliver three meals during the day, but he still steals the food?"
The old steward was speechless. He did not dare to say that he deliberately deprived Song Xin of their meals. He rolled his eyes and said quibly: "Yes...it was these boys who withheld their food. I am investigating the matter, but he..." Manager Zheng pointed to the skeleton on the ground and pushed it to Even dead people die without any evidence.
Liu Jing narrowed his eyes and saw that Song Xin was tall and strong, not looking hungry, and asked, "Is what he said true?"
Feeling the coldness in Liu Jing's eyes, Song Xin quickly said: "Since Master Liu left, there has only been one meal, and it was just rotten vegetable porridge... It's just..."
The old steward trembled and raised his head to stare angrily at Song Xin.
"Just what?"
"Without anyone instructing me, I'm afraid this guy wouldn't have the courage."
Tuoye already hated this old man, so he took advantage of the situation and said, "Song Xin is right."
Liu Jing saw Tuo Ye's sallow face and nodded slightly, but still looked at Song Xin with suspicion, "If you lie, do you know what will happen?"
When the old steward heard this, he immediately said: "Master Liu, don't listen to their nonsense! Every time I give them meat, three meals a day, it is eaten by these boys!" He pointed to a trembling boy. The house slave said.
Liu Jing interrupted him, "Did I ask you?"
After saying that, he walked up to the old steward, leaned over and whispered in his ear: "I'm afraid it won't be that easy if you want to lie to me."
Seeing the old steward trembling, Liu Jing already had a conclusion in his mind. He straightened up and said, "For the sake of the Wei family, I won't hold you accountable this time. If there is a next time, Liu will let you be like him." Liu Jing raised his hand and pointed at the trembling slave.
The old steward's old face was already red and sweating profusely, and he said quickly: "Thank you, Master Liu."
"Don't be busy thanking me yet, Tuoshan, do it."
With everyone looking in astonishment, Tuoshan walked up to the trembling house slave, stared at him condescendingly, suddenly raised his knife and cut off the man's head.
Manager Zheng was so frightened that he collapsed on the ground, and Tuoye couldn't believe that Tuoshan could be so cruel...
Liu Jing ordered: "Bury these two corpses and give his family a few more coffins. If you dare to do this in the future, it will not just be his death."
