165 Do You Need Me to Invite General Shen Over?
The Eight Trigrams Disc was engraved with complicated talismans and traditional words. The needle was pure silver.
Shen Yaowei transferred her spiritual power in. After the needle spun crazily, it stopped moving.
“Lin Haizhi’s soul has disappeared…” Shen Yaowei muttered and looked at the pool of flesh again.
That’s right, that pile of flesh belonged to Lin Haizhi.
Just 10 minutes ago, she had even used this compa.s.s to find traces of Lin Haizhi and found this place in the direction the compa.s.s pointed.
However, in a short period of time, Lin Haizhi turned into a small pool of flesh and blood. Even his soul had completely disappeared.
Who did it?
Just as Shen Yaowei was frowning and squatting there thinking, a gaze quietly landed on her.
The girl in the black dress stood on the roof with her hands behind her back.
The wind gently blew the black veil on her face, revealing her exceptionally smooth chin.
She looked at Shen Yaowei with a deep gaze.
Shen Yaowei felt a strange gaze and immediately looked up at the girl in the black dress.
“Am I hallucinating?” Shen Yaowei looked at the empty roof with a trace of confusion in her big eyes.
Why did she feel that someone was looking at her as if she was a snack?
A cold wind blew past. At some point, dark clouds covered the moon, and m.u.f.fled thunder sounded in the night sky.
Shen Yaowei wrapped her black cloak tightly around her, stood up decisively, and left.
At dusk the next day, in Oriole Village.
A few small heads quietly appeared outside the wall of Landlord Liu’s house and looked at the man sitting in the courtyard.
“I’ve never seen such a good-looking person. It was no wonder that the village chief’s Sister Lin and Landlord Liu’s Sister Liu fell out because of this person.”
“Both Sister Lin and Sister Liu want to marry this handsome man. Tsk tsk…”
“But I think this handsome man looks so scary…”
“…”
The discussions of the boys spread word for word to the courtyard.
“Master, I’ll chase those children away.” Yan Bei brought the freshly brewed tea to Huo Junhan and placed the teapot and teacup in front of him.
Huo Junhan looked down at the transparent, blood-colored jade pendant in his hand and said nothing.
Yan Bei glanced at Huo Junhan and turned to leave.
After the children were chased away, the courtyard immediately returned to silence. Yan Bei walked to Huo Junhan and said to him, “Master, General Shen has already arrived at noon today, but he’s settled down at the village chief’s place. Do you need me to invite General Shen over?”
“Nosy,” Huo Junhan said calmly, his gla.s.s-like eyes still staring at the jade pendant in his hand.
Yan Bei glanced at the jade pendant in Huo Junhan’s hand with worry in his eyes.
He bowed to Huo Junhan and turned to leave.
A moment later, at the village chief’s house.
Yan Bei came to the room where Shen Liu’an was and said to the guard guarding the door, “I’m His Highness Li’s subordinate. Please inform General Shen that I have something to ask of you.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Liu’an’s voice came from the room.
“Come in.”
Yan Bei tidied his clothes and walked into the room.
In the small room, the four-legged table was already filled with various books. Shen Liu’an was holding a book and reading it. In front of him was a map.
The map was of Oriole Mountain. As Oriole Village was located behind Oriole Mountain, it was named Oriole Mountain.
“Why isn’t your master here?” Shen Liu’an looked up at Yan Bei and asked.
“General, my master might not be doing well,” Yan Bei said slowly.
