I'm his wife, how come I don't know?

Chapter 49 Pretending to be a ghost

"I have something important to do, so I'll add this jade slip to you first. I'll contact you when I'm done."

Compared to the crying and wailing of the people on the other side, Jiang Chu seemed relatively calm.

The excited tears on the other end were not affected at all by Jiang Chu's normality.

Wiping tears and snot at the same time.

"Okay! You go ahead and do your work. Remember to come find me. Suck—"

"Uuuuuu——"

"suck---"

Jiang Chu couldn't stand such overly enthusiastic people.

He hurriedly hung up the jade slip, and hurriedly added the jade slip again.

He left the restaurant in a hurry.

Continue to go west to Zhao’s house.

"Buzzing—"

The jade slip made rapid sounds in the mustard seed bag.

Jiang Chu looked around, found an empty alley, and picked up the phone.

Xuan Hao on the other end lowered his voice and said, "There is a problem with the Li family, let's go to the Li family first!"

"quick!"

Xuan Hao hung up the jade slip.

Jiang Chu frowned slightly, but he also knew what was important and what was not.

Xuan Hao asked him for help, so he had to go.

Jiang Chu changed direction and rushed towards the Li family in the east.

Jiang Chu ran so fast that he didn't notice that he was approaching the Li family's territory.

He had already stepped into another world.

The originally scorching sun instantly turned into a half moon.

Jiang Chu then suddenly stopped.

A courtyard appeared out of nowhere in front of me, and what caught my eye was the dazzling white lantern hanging at the door.

The courtyard is somewhat similar to the Hui-style architecture that Jiang Chu saw in Anhui, but it is more majestic.

Gray tiles and white walls, with some complicated runes on the walls, as Jiang Chu blinked.

Flashing gently.

The wind blew gently, and the two white lanterns in front of the courtyard swayed gently in the wind.

"Crunch, crunch -"

The candlelight in the lantern also swayed.

The big black word "葬" on the white lantern looked so uncomfortable in the dark night.

Jiang Chu resisted instinctively. The Li family mansion in front of him revealed something unusual everywhere, and he began to have a bad feeling in his heart.

"Squeak-"

The vermilion door slowly opened.

An old man in plain linen mourning clothes, holding a white lantern in his hand.

When their eyes met, they were both slightly stunned.

Jiang Chu shifted his gaze and looked back through the door. Behind him was a flickering white light.

The light spots are winding, with no end in sight.

"My Immortal Lord, are you also here to pay tribute to my master?" The old man's voice, like a dead branch, echoed in the dim night.

It's like fingernails scratching on a blackboard, which is very uncomfortable.

Jiang Chu frowned and was about to answer.

Behind the old man, a purple figure flashed past quickly.

Only when the person came closer could I see clearly that it was Xuan Hao, dressed in a purple robe.

"I'm traveling with you." Xuan Hao looked at the old butler.

The voice was emotionless.

"So you are also an immortal! Please come in!" The old man first bowed to him and then turned sideways.

Although Jiang Chu realized that the Li family was not simple, the purpose of his trip was to investigate.

Besides, Xuan Hao had already gone in, so he had no choice but to go.

Jiang Chu walked towards the door step by step, hesitated for a moment before crossing the threshold.

Jiang Chu sensed it very clearly this time. The moment he stepped into Li's house, there were fluctuations of spiritual power activating the barrier around him.

It was very slight, but Jiang Chu caught it clearly.

"Senior Brother Xuanhao, what's going on?" Jiang Chu asked tentatively.

While asking, he looked around.

The courtyard is more like Hui-style architecture, with rockery, flowing water, and a long corridor with a very obvious Hui-style architecture.

Every ten steps along the corridor, there is a pair of white lanterns hanging.

There was a big word "Dian" written on the lantern.

"Crunch, crunch -"

A gentle breeze blew, and the lanterns swayed one after another, with creaking sounds heard continuously.

Jiang Chu's back tensed up at the sound.

Jiang Chu looked around vigilantly all the way.

"As soon as I entered the Li family's house, it changed from day to night."

"I came in to ask around and found out that the head of the Li family died suddenly and their funeral is being held." Xuan Hao did not lie about this.

But he asked Jiang Chu to come over because he had other selfish motives.

Because as soon as he entered the Li family's house, he felt the power of the seal.

He has a magic weapon in his hand that can pry open the seal, and he can come and go freely.

But Jiang Chu——

Just happened to stay here.

Xuan Hao thought viciously that his plan was perfect. It was normal to have casualties and disappearances when on a mission.

"Besides the sky, is there anything else unusual?" Jiang Chu continued to ask.

"I sensed a trace of demonic energy in the Li family, but every time I wanted to investigate carefully, the demonic energy disappeared without a trace." Xuan Hao did not lie.

Otherwise, he wouldn't dare to set up a trap for Jiang Chu like this.

At that time, even if Si Ling was angry, he couldn't really kill him because of Jiang Chu's death.

The demons are brutal, so it's normal that he can't defeat them.

The butler who led the way in front said nothing along the way.

Jiang Chu and Xuan Hao took many detours along the way.

There is a faint floral scent in the wind, and a hint of the aroma of ripe fruit.

But it could not cover up the faint smell of blood beneath the fragrance.

Jiang Chu's heart skipped a beat.

Jiang Chu has always been sensitive to the smell of blood, but I didn’t expect that Jiang Chu in this body is also sensitive to the smell of blood.

"Senior Brother Xuanhao, do you smell anything?" Jiang Chu asked softly in his ear.

"Sniff—" Xuan Hao sniffed the air deeply.

"Floral scent, fruit scent, what's that?" Xuan Hao couldn't smell anything other than that.

Jiang Chu's eyes darkened.

Alarm bells rang in my heart.

There is indeed something wrong with the Li family.

He took out the jade slip and tried to send a signal quietly.

But he found that the jade slip had no response, just like a mobile phone that had run out of battery.

Jiang Chu looked at Xuan Hao: "Brother Xuan Hao, can you see if your jade slip can be used?"

Xuan Hao did not feel guilty at all, and said coldly: "The jade slip is not useful, how can I inform you."

Jiang Chu frowned and looked at Xuan Hao suspiciously.

Xuan Hao raised his eyebrows and looked back at him.

“Hehehe~~~~”

In the wind, the woman's giggles sounded like a whisper in my ears.

Jiang Chu turned his head suddenly.

But I found nothing on the side.

"Senior Brother Xuanhao, did you hear any sound?" Jiang Chu's Adam's apple rolled.

Xuan Hao looked at him like a psychopath: "Jiang Chu, don't be so suspicious."

Xuan Hao really didn't hear anything.

Suddenly, the fragrance of flowers and fruits in the wind became stronger, and the smell seemed to come from behind me.

Jiang Chu turned around abruptly.

But all I could see was a hint of red, which disappeared into the depths of the corridor.

Jiang Chu's hair stood on end and he directly sacrificed his puppet tree.

When Xuan Hao saw his attitude, he rolled his eyes speechlessly.

"With your guts, you are unworthy of being a direct disciple of the Five Sects."

"Just a little bit of trouble scared you into showing your weapon."

Jiang Chu was too lazy to pay attention to him.

He didn't know why Xuan Hao couldn't smell, hear, or see.

But I will never make a mistake.

"Where is the housekeeper?" Jiang Chu's eyes were cold.

Looking at the corridor in front, it was already empty.

"My Lord, come and play with me. I'm so lonely."

This time, Xuan Hao also heard it!

He suddenly drew out his purple Soul-Breaking Sword and pointed it forward.

"who!"

"Come out quickly!"

"Stop pretending to be a fool here!"
