Because I found that the courtyard of Granny Jinhua’s house was in a mess inside and outside, and there seemed to be traces of a fight. I glanced around, but there was no trace of Granny Jinhua, which made me feel something was wrong.
It is precisely because Grandma Jinhua is sitting at the entrance that we can enter the Dragon Vein without any worries and do not have to worry about enemies following us.
But now, Granny Jinhua has suddenly disappeared, which still makes me a little worried.
"Mother-in-law, we are back, are you there?"
I stood at the door of Grandma Jinhua's house and shouted several times outside. The entire Fengmen Village remained extremely silent and there was no response.
I became more and more uneasy. Did Grandma Jinhua encounter any danger after we entered the Dragon Vein?
This shouldn't be the case. In my heart, Granny Jinhua is a being who can hurt the Ghost King. Needless to say, her strength is natural. Whether it's the Yin and Yang Realm in the south or the Ma Family in the north, there shouldn't be many people who can hurt her, right?
"Jingjing, please take everyone out first."
Although I felt uneasy, I didn't say much and turned to Jingjing.
Jingjingjing also realized that I was going to find Grandma Jinhua, so she nodded and called on the villagers in Wuyou Village to go out with her.
Before leaving, all the villagers bowed to me and thanked me for rescuing them from suffering and regaining their lives.
I smiled and waved my hands and said goodbye to everyone.
Afterwards, a group of villagers, led by An Jingjing, walked outside Fengmen Village. On the road not far outside, there was a bus leading to Jiashi, where they could take a bus and return to their hometowns.
"What do you think, is Grandma Jinhua in danger?"
After quietly leaving with the villagers, I called Lonnie and Bai Ze over and smelled them.
"Looking at the marks on the ground, it was obvious that there was a fight, but it was not intense. Maybe my mother-in-law encountered something during the battle."
Lonnie dragged her chin and said in a deep voice.
"I think we should go look outside. Maybe my mother-in-law is nearby."
Bai Ze also suggested.
"good."
I nodded and walked out with the two of them.
Walking on the small road in Fengmen Village, we searched for Granny Jinhua everywhere. Faintly, I seemed to hear bursts of crying coming from the west end of the village.
Lonnie and I looked at each other, and then quickly walked towards the source of the crying. After a while, we saw a person squatting on the ground, crying bitterly.
When I walked in, I discovered that this person turned out to be the grandson claimed by Granny Jinhua, Xiaohu!
"Xiaohu, where has my mother-in-law gone?"
I quickly walked over and asked Xiaohu.
"Save mother-in-law, save mother-in-law..."
Xiaohu raised his head and cried even harder when he saw it was us. He held on to the corner of my clothes and refused to let go.
"Tell me slowly, what happened? Is my mother-in-law in danger?"
Seeing Xiaohu's reaction, I asked anxiously.
"Save mother-in-law, save mother-in-law..."
Did Xiaohu answer my question? He still repeated that sentence.
"Xiaohu, where is my mother-in-law now? Can you take us to find her?"
Seeing that my communication was ineffective, Lonnie asked in a different way.
"Well, let's go quickly..."
When Lonnie asked, Xiaohu seemed to understand. He immediately pulled the corner of my clothes and walked out of the village.
I didn't resist, let the little tiger pull me, and walked out of the village to a mountain col outside Xitou.
From a distance, I saw a wooden stake standing in the mountain col. Grandma Jinhua was tied to it by Wu Hua Da, and she looked haggard.
"Mother-in-law!"
I was shocked and was about to rush over, but as soon as I ran two steps, there was a sudden bang, and countless gravel flew towards me from all around, straight towards the door!
I quickly took a few steps back and rolled a few times on the spot, and then I was able to avoid the attack of gravel.
Just as I stood up and was about to rush over again, Lonnie grabbed me.
"Xiao Chengzi, don't go there yet, there seems to be a formation in front of you!"
"It's too dangerous to rush over hastily!"
Only then did I think that the gravel seemed to appear out of thin air. Someone must have set up a formation here to lure us.
"Hahaha, she is indeed Lang Zhenxiong's daughter. She is really extremely smart!"
While I was thinking about how to crack this stone formation, a burst of laughter suddenly came from behind the mountain col, and then I saw a figure flash past and appear in front of us.
This man was dressed in Taoist robes. He was about forty years old, with a slender figure and a glint in his eyes, carrying an evil aura.
"It's you!"
When I saw the person in front of me, I couldn't help but be shocked. I never expected to see him here.
This person is none other than Taoist Xu of the Yinshan Sect I met in Ningcheng in the south!
At that time, he manipulated Luo Jingui, the head of the Luo family, to build a paper city and steal the Yin and Yang life. Later, I burned down the paper city and almost had a conflict with him.
However, after knowing that I was a disciple of the Ma family, this person did not directly conflict with me and disappeared.
Since then, this person has never appeared again. I never expected that he would actually appear in the Ma family's territory in the north.
"My little friend, you're fine!"
However, Taoist Xu said to me coldly with a ferocious smile on his face.
"Let your mother-in-law go quickly, or I will never spare you!"
I raised the King of Martial Whip and shouted sternly.
Lonnie and Bai Ze were also standing by my side, ready to take action at any time.
"Before you ask me to let him go, aren't you curious as to why I'm here?"
However, Taoist Xu showed no fear on his face and still said coldly.
"You killed my great-grandfather, and now you are asking me to release him. How can anything in the world be so cheap!"
I was suddenly stunned. Could it be that Xu Daoren’s great-grandfather was...
Suddenly, like lightning, a figure flashed across my mind.
When we were looking for the first dragon vein entrance, we were once trapped in a bamboo forest. At that time, in order to resolve the resentment of Lu Waner, the enemy soul in the bamboo, I once entered her space world with her.
In that space, standing behind Lu Waner's husband was an old man named Xu.
At that time, I discovered that the look and appearance of this old Taoist and Ningcheng Taoist Xu were quite similar. I have always wondered what the relationship between the two was.
Now it seems that the great-grandfather Xu Taoist mentioned should be this old Taoist!
"The bamboo forest space you entered was the place where my great-grandfather's spirit cultivated. Due to your destruction, that space was damaged and my great-grandfather's spirit could not stay, so it sneaked into my dream and told me everything that happened. "
Xu Daoren said angrily: "The most important thing is that the entrance to the dragon vein is a closely guarded secret of our Yinshan sect, but now you have arrived first and taken away the treasure in the dragon vein. How can I let it go!"
