The door was gently pushed open, and a handsome middle-aged man wearing a light blue gown walked in slowly.
Fan Chengze's eyes moved around the room, and then fell on the bed. Looking at the man sleeping on the bed with his head covered, he frowned slightly.
As a cultivator family that has been rooted in Shanghai for nearly two hundred years, the potential power of the Fan family in Shanghai is extremely terrifying.
So it was very easy for Fan Chengze to know what his son went out for last night and what happened in Du Wenqiang's house.
So, he came to this fortune-telling parlor called Zouma Pavilion.
Although Fan Chengze didn't like Fan Lei at all, he was always ashamed of himself for giving birth to such a son who couldn't practice cultivation and only knew how to eat, drink and have fun.
However, his father loved this grandson the most.
What's more, no matter how much I hate Fan Lei, this son is his biological son after all. I still have to find the murderer to avenge him, and this matter is also related to the face of their Fan family.
So Fan Chengze came in person.
But before coming here, Fan Chengze thought that he would meet a practitioner that the Fan family didn't know about.
But after arriving at this fortune-telling parlor, Fan Chengze realized that he had been completely wrong.
He had just checked all the places in this fortune-telling parlor and found no trace of any practitioners living here.
Now he was standing in the fortune teller's room again and confirmed that the person lying on the bed was just an ordinary mortal.
Regarding this, Fan Chengze was extremely convinced.
The person who killed Fan Lei must be a strong man in the Nascent Soul Realm, otherwise his father's servant Lao Chen would never have been killed without any room for resistance.
Because the Fan family is best at soul-based magic, they have a special way of identifying whether a person has given birth to a Nascent Soul.
Let's put it this way, as long as you are in the fairyland, almost no one can escape Fan Chengze's detection, no matter what method you use to hide your cultivation.
The person lying on the bed in front of him had no spiritual energy fluctuations in his body, and Fan Chengze had not detected the existence of Nascent Soul in this person. He was undoubtedly an ordinary person.
So what happened at the Dufu night banquet last night should be just a coincidence.
Fan Chengze, who has lived for more than a hundred years, knows very well that there are always many coincidences in this world.
Standing at the head of the bed, Fan Chengze slowly raised his palm, preparing to slap the person on the bed to death.
So what if it's a coincidence, so what if this person is innocent.
This man offended his son last night, and now Fan Chengze is standing here, just wanting to kill this man to vent his anger.
Just when Fan Chengze's palm was about to fall, a sharp and extremely cold breath suddenly came from behind his head.
Fan Chengze's body froze slightly, and then slowly turned around.
At the door behind him, stood quietly a red-robed female Taoist priest who was as beautiful as a spiritual rain from an empty mountain.
One of the female Taoist priest's hands was placed on the hilt of the purple sword behind her back.
Fan Chengze's eyes narrowed. He had just met this female Taoist priest last night, so he naturally knew who she was.
"I didn't expect you Seven Immortals Alliance to find this place so quickly."
Then Fan Chengze smiled at the red-robed female Taoist priest.
"Mr. Fan, did you just want to kill this person?"
Li Changqing said coldly.
"If I said that I just saw a mosquito and just drove it away, would you believe it?"
Fan Chengze had a strong look of fear in his eyes at this time.
Such a strong and sharp sword energy.
At that moment, Fan Chengze really felt a huge danger.
This young female Taoist priest is by no means an ordinary Nascent Soul realm, but a Nascent Soul who is about to become a land god.
This realization caused Fan Chengze's heart to stir up a bigger storm than last night.
"It's better to have a mosquito."
Li Changqing said calmly:
"This is just an ordinary person. It should have nothing to do with the death of the son. I hope Mr. Fan will not anger others."
Like Fan Chengze, Li Changqing thought there was something wrong with the fortune teller here before coming here.
But after arriving, after seeing the situation here and meeting the fortune teller, Li Changqing and Fan Chengze came to the same conclusion. The fortune teller's prediction for Fan Lei last night was probably just a coincidence.
Fan Chengze slowly retracted his palm.
Li Changqing also removed his hand from the hilt of the sword.
The two men's eyes crossed.
Then Fan Chengze laughed, then spread his hands and said:
"The Fan family has always abided by heaven's rules. If there is nothing else, Fan will leave first."
Fan Chengze turned and walked towards the wall. He did not choose to leave from the door.
Just when he walked to the wall, Fan Chengze suddenly turned around and asked.
"I still don't know what to call this female Taoist Priest?"
"Daomen, Li Changqing."
Li Changqing said in a clear voice.
Fan Chengze murmured and repeated the words "Li Changqing" and nodded to Li Changqing again.
"Daozhang Li, see you later."
With the addition of such a female Taoist priest in Shanghai, every family will be under more pressure in the future!
Fan Chengze thought so, then took a step forward and walked through the wall.
Li Changqing withdrew his gaze and turned to the bed. The person on the bed was still sleeping, and there was a slight snoring under the quilt.
The conversation between her and Fan Chengze just now did not wake this person up. It seems that Fan Chengze used some Taoist method on him.
Li Changqing was silent for a while, then closed the door and left disappointed.
The two Nascent Soul Powers have already confirmed that this person is just a mortal, so there is nothing wrong with this.
Naturally, Li Changqing would not go to the bedside and lift the quilt to take a look, not to mention that it was a young man. She did not want to lift the quilt of a young man, lest she see some indecent sight.
It seems that to catch the mysterious "swallow", we can only wait for the next opportunity, if the "swallow" will take action again.
When leaving, Li Changqing thought so.
But the moment she stepped out of the fortune-telling parlor called "Zhouma Pavilion", an inexplicable expression suddenly appeared on her face.
Because the moment she stepped out of the threshold, her sword heart suddenly became stronger and her cultivation became more refined.
What an inexplicable breakthrough.
Li Changqing looked back strangely and looked at the three words "Zouma Guan" on the door plaque behind him, a little confused.
…
Shu Guan lifted the quilt and sat up from the bed.
He put down the ear-tip knife in his hand, wiped a layer of sweat from his forehead, and then opened his palm to look at it.
Fortunately, what happened this time was just like the secret revealed by Yi Zhang Sutra, it was just a near miss.
It's just that I still underestimated the Fan family and the Seven Immortals Alliance in Shencheng.
From the few words exchanged between the two people who came just now, Shu Guan had already guessed their identities.
On the level of Taoism, it is impossible for them to find themselves, but they can use secular power. It seems that they suspected themselves through what happened at the Dufu night banquet last night.
However, the current result does not seem to be a bad thing.
Because they have seen it and have no doubts, they will no longer pay attention to themselves for a long time in the future, and they will no longer associate the fortune teller in Duolun Lane with "Swallow".
This time, I will be truly "invisible".
No wonder the heavenly secret shown in a palm scripture is "the dragon is hidden in the abyss".
Shu Guan smiled, then murmured softly.
"...Li Changqing, from the Taoist sect..."
He had not seen the appearance of the one who was supposed to be a disciple of the Seven Immortals Alliance, but judging from the voice, he should be a very young woman.
A young female disciple of the Nascent Soul Realm of Taoism.
Of course, Shu Guan couldn't be sure whether he was really young, but he was very sure in the Nascent Soul realm.
The two people who came just now brought a sense of oppression to Shu Guan that only a powerful person in the Nascent Soul Realm could feel.
Shu Guan thought about the three Nascent Soul Realm powerhouses from the Seven Immortals Alliance who had appeared by the river.
This is the fourth one.
The strength of our Seven Immortals Alliance in Shanghai is really strong!
…No, no, it’s not us now…
Shuguan lay on the bed and waited for a while.
He was afraid that those two people would fight back.
But it turned out that he was overly worried. An hour passed and no one came back.
Looking at the member of the Fan family and the woman from the Seven Immortals Alliance, they were sure that he was a mortal.
After waiting for an hour to make sure that the two people would not come back, Shu Guan got up and went to the yard. He performed a Taoist secret and two large suitcases slowly emerged from the soil.
Shu Guan picked up two suitcases and walked back to his bedroom.
Originally, he was ready to throw the two suitcases under the bed, and then went to Han Biao to tell him not to hide outside.
But at this time, he seemed to suddenly remember something, opened one of the suitcases, and took out the seven white bone nails from inside.
He promised Du Wenqiang last night that he would help find the person who secretly plotted against him.
Shu Guan took out the seven white bone nails and placed them on the bed in the shape of a reverse seven buckets. Then he took out the turtle shell and placed it on top of the seven white bone nails. Then he picked up a few more The ancient copper coins were thrown on the turtle shell.
But when the hexagram came out, Shu Guan's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise.
The secret revealed in the hexagram has only one word: death.
In other words, the person who originally planted the Seven Stars formation on Du Wenqiang's father's grave is already dead.
This result really surprised Shu Guan.
It was also a little embarrassing.
Because he agreed to Du Wenqiang's request with a confident tone last night. Although the original words are yes, I can try, but I can't guarantee the result.
The problem is that his demeanor and tone at that time were like, I just want to say polite words and I can handle it easily.
And now the clue is broken!
Of course, it is possible that the person who secretly plotted against Du Wenqiang was this dead practitioner.
There is another possibility that the practitioner who set up the Seven Stars Formation was specially invited by others to deal with Du Wenqiang.
But no matter which possibility it is, it seems impossible to know the truth now.
That's why Shu Guan is a little embarrassed.
This embarrassment lasted until Du Wenqiang personally came to pick him up the next day.
Du Wenqiang came to pick him up around three o'clock in the afternoon the next day.
Because at the Du Mansion banquet the night before, Du Wenqiang personally promised Zhang Hushan that he would accompany Shu Guan to check the feng shui of Zhang Hushan's new house.
Du Wenqiang is such a person who means what he says, although when he said these words at that time, it was an occasion where it seemed that he was just talking politely.
But Du Wenqiang did not take it as a courtesy.
So when he appeared in the horse racing pavilion and said that he wanted to send Shu Guan to Yang Hushan to see Feng Shui, Shu Guan had another unexpected emotion.
"Mr. Shu, have you settled that matter for me?"
After getting into Du Wenqiang's luxurious Cadillac car, Du Wenqiang asked eagerly.
Shu Guan said nothing, admiring the scenery outside the car window with a very focused expression.
He didn't know how to answer, so he could only hide his embarrassment with silence.
But his silence became unfathomable in Du Wenqiang's eyes.
When the car arrived at Yang Hushan's new house and Xiaojian opened the car door for the two of them and asked them to get out of the car, Shu Guan just said calmly to Du Wenqiang:
"Don't worry, you will know the answer soon."
Along the way, Shu Guan thought for a long time, wondering whether he should tell Du Wenqiang the truth, that is, he seemed unable to investigate this matter.
But in the end he decided he couldn't tell the truth.
Because telling the truth would completely destroy the image of a superior person he has created in front of Du Wenqiang.
A mortal like Du Wenqiang, who is also a big gangster, will not understand how much ability you have by actually calculating that the person is dead. He will only think that Master Shu can't do everything. Well, do I think highly of him?
So after thinking for a long time, Shu Guan finally said this.
Come on, if you want to pretend, you have to pretend to the end.
When you really can't pretend anymore, well... then just give up and find someone else to pretend.
Shu Guan really thought so when he got off the bus.
Du Wenqiang behind him responded respectfully.
It seemed that I was really too anxious just now and just waited for the good news from Master Shu.
Arriving at Yang Hushan's new residence, when Yang Hushan came out to greet him, the expression on his face seemed to have the word "accident" written on it.
Because the night before yesterday, he just said it casually.
Unexpectedly, Du Wenqiang really came with this young fortune teller.
However, Yang Hushan still welcomed the two people in very politely.
Then Shu Guan walked around Yang Hushan's new residence without saying a word, but after leaving, he smiled politely and said something to Yang Hushan.
"Master Yang's new house seems to have been decorated with feng shui by an expert. I am deeply impressed by the expert's methods and dare not make any further comments."
Yang Hushan was smiling proudly at that time.
Then Du Wenqiang and Shu Guan said goodbye and left.
When he got into the car, Shu Guan said something casually to Du Wenqiang.
"The person who ruined your family's feng shui is Yang Hushan."
There was no look of surprise on Du Wenqiang's face, he just gritted his teeth and said:
"I knew it was this old Zong Sang."
In the second half, I tried to use concise white description. Do you prefer this method or the original one with more detailed foreshadowing?
