Celestial Master [Rebirth]

[58] Exploring the Zhang Family

In the clear sky and broad daylight, the doors and windows of the Zhang family's study room were closed, and even the curtains were drawn tightly.

The whole room seemed to be shrouded in a gloomy ghostly atmosphere.

In front of the mahogany table, Zhang Mingxin's right arm sleeve was empty, and he was drawing talisman paper with a pen in his left hand.

A drop of crystal sweat slid down his temples and dripped on the papers laid out on the table, leaving dense traces.From his impatient expression, it can be seen that he is impatient and impatient, and the talisman draws twists and turns.

Zhang Mingxin withdrew his hand suddenly and threw out the drawn talisman paper.In the open space in front of the table, the little ghost tied to the wooden post screamed in horror, and then found that the talisman had no lethality at all.

The yellow paper with complicated talismans and seals fell from the air, and it was no different from ordinary waste paper.

The bound kid was stunned, looking at Zhang Mingxin with a livid face in front of him, he didn't know whether to continue howling miserably or keep silent.

With a soft "snap", Zhang Mingxin broke the pen holder in his hand, and then he threw the broken brush away. The person guarding the side seemed to have received some kind of order, and opened the curtains with a snap, and the bright sunlight shone Come in and hit straight on the wooden post in the middle of the room.

The imprisoned imp was stunned when he suddenly encountered the sun, and then let out an inhuman scream. Thick smoke billowed from his body, and within a short while, the impoverished imp turned into fly ash.

The door of the room was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and the expression of the person who saw the tragedy inside the room remained unchanged, as if he had already gotten used to it.

Zhang Mingxin was very anxious, and said displeasedly, "What's the matter?"

Looking at his pair of different-colored pupils, coupled with his sullen and impatient expression, the hearts of those who have served the Zhang family for many years are also shuddering.

The visitor lowered his head, trying to reduce his sense of existence: "Master, Lin Xi is here, just outside the door."

Zhang Mingxin stood up abruptly, thinking he heard it wrong: "Who are you talking about? Who's here?"

"Master, it's Lin Xi."

"Lin Xi..." In just a few seconds, Zhang Mingxin's expression changed continuously.

The person who came to report was a middle-aged man who had been in the Zhang family for many years and was very clear about the grievances between Lin Xi and the Zhang family. He whispered, "Young master, do you want to... beat him out?"

"Shoot out?" Zhang Mingxin cast a sideways glance at the man, then kicked the man to the ground, cursing, "You idiot, invite him in soon."

Lin Xi looked up at the plaque on the gate of the Zhang family. Since he was adopted by the Lin family, he has never returned to this place.

His eyes swept over the grand gate and the stone steps under his feet, everything here was still the same as in his memory—the same hateful.

But now he is no longer afraid.

Qin Fang stood next to him, looking at the gate of the Zhang family, a little dissatisfied: "It's so grand, to make us wait." He suggested, "How about we go in?"

Lin Xi smiled, and was about to say something, when the person who had reported came back.

The man led them in.

Entering the front hall, someone soon brought refreshments.After serving the tea, the man did not leave the front hall, but stood guard there.Not only that, but there were also two tall and strong men guarding outside the hall. This group of people looked tense, obviously guarding something.

Lin Xi just didn't see it, but Qin Fang was very interesting, and at the same time, his heart was full of curiosity.Lin Xi and the Zhang family really have an inexplicable connection, but what is it?

As if sensing Qin Fang's probing gaze, Lin Xi glanced at him.

Qin Fang put his expression away, leaned over and whispered to Lin Xi: "The group of old antiques in Suongshan have all kept pace with the times, and they have long since lost their style. Could it be that this family came from a coffin thousands of years ago?" Did you climb out?"

Lin Xi looked helpless, Qin Fang is really hurtful.He signaled Qin Fang to restrain himself with his eyes, Qin Fang smiled, and was about to say something, when he heard hurried footsteps from outside the hall.

Two figures appeared in front of him, and the one walking in front was Zhang Mingxin.

Zhang Mingxin came in a hurry. The moment he saw Lin Xi, he seemed to be relieved.

Seeing Lin Xi looking over, Zhang Mingxin lowered his head, with a hint of annoyance in his eyes.He was stuck in the room all day without changing his clothes, and now he looked messy.

A pleasant male voice suddenly sounded from the side: "Young Master Zhang has a very ghostly aura."

It was only then that Zhang Mingxin noticed that there was another person beside Lin Xi, an unknown boy whom he had seen that day.

Sensing that Lin Xi's eyes fell on him again, Zhang Mingxin's lips moved, but before he could speak, the person beside him said first: "Young Master, apart from so many evil spirits these days, of course he will be contaminated with ghosts." gas."

Zhang Mingxin gave the man a dissatisfied look. The middle-aged man somehow offended the young master, and stepped aside in horror.

"You..." Zhang Mingxin looked at Lin Xi, feeling a little nervous: "Why did you come here suddenly?"

After finishing speaking, realizing that his words were a bit too soft, as if he was expecting him to come, Zhang Mingxin's face became stiff.

Lin Xi didn't seem to have noticed, and his attitude was as cold as ever: "We were entrusted to track down a little ghost. He stole important things. We tracked all the way and found that he disappeared in your Zhang family's territory."

Every time Lin Xi said this, she said that she was representing the Zhang family of the Sanqing Sect. This was a matter between sects, not a personal matter.

Zhang Mingxin said that the look of anticipation in his eyes was less, he nodded, and said in a neutral tone: "So?"

"I know you've got rid of a lot of ghosts recently." Lin Xi looked into Zhang Mingxin's eyes and said, "Did you catch it by mistake?"

What Lin Xi said was ordinary, but it sounded like a compliment to Zhang Mingxin.He suddenly felt very happy, as if he finally got Lin Xi's approval, and turned to the middle-aged man next to him: "Go and see if the kid you caught recently stole anything."

The middle-aged man had a troubled look on his face. He wondered if there were any little devils caught, but if Zhang Mingxin made a move, those guys would all die.

Zhang Mingxin narrowed his eyes, and the middle-aged man hurriedly said, "Yes, I'll go right away."

Lin Xi stood up and said, "It's urgent, let's go together, so as not to waste time."

Zhang Mingxin stared at Lin Xi for a while, then suddenly smiled and said, "That's fine."

On the way to the interior of the Zhang family, Zhang Mingxin walked briskly, observing Lin Xi from the corner of his eyes from time to time.

Lin Xi looked calm, but she was actually observing her surroundings.The Zhang family has not changed much, even the positions of those flowers and trees are the same as before.

This was the place he hated the most and wanted to escape.

Zhang Mingxin, who was leading the way ahead, stopped suddenly. He pointed to a gazebo not far away, and said to Lin Xi: "I still remember when we first met, you and I were only a little taller than that stone table, and now we are both It looks like an adult."

Qin Fang gritted his teeth. What kind of eyes did this Zhang have? His intuition was correct. This guy must have something wrong with Lin Xi.

Talking about the past, Lin Xi didn't feel any emotion, he said calmly: "Master is still waiting for the result, let's hurry up."

Zhang Mingxin stared at Lin Xi, as if he was unwilling, and finally turned around to lead the way.

The deeper he walked, the more Qin Fang could feel the strong ghostly aura surging in the depths of Zhang's house, and he and Lin Xi exchanged glances very quickly.

Qin Fang suddenly said, "Young Master Zhang, let me borrow your toilet."

Hearing Qin Fang's words, a look of disgust flashed in Zhang Mingxin's eyes. He didn't like Qin Fang from the first time they met.

This person appeared inexplicably, and the investigation could not find out his details, but he was always by Lin Xi's side.

Lin Xi took him with him even when he went back to Zhang's house, obviously he had great trust in this surnamed Qin.This made him extremely unhappy.

Zhang Mingxin gave the middle-aged man beside him a look, and the middle-aged man said to Qin Fang, "Please follow me."
