At the same time, an unusual scene was revealed in a dark and humid basement in Yuanyang City.

The ground and the wall seemed to be covered with blood, and it was red. Hundreds and thousands of long and short white candles were lit on it.

The candlelights intersect, and there seemed to be a flash of inspiration, but there was no warmth, but there was inexplicably a little chill.

In the vacant place in the middle of the room was an old Eight Immortals table, covered with blood-stained yellow cloth. You could vaguely see a piece of Five Elements and Eight Trigrams diagram with unknown blood, but it was already blurred and had been quite old.

There were three offerings on the table in sequence, two plates of half-baked and even close to rotten roast chicken. The chicken's head was not removed, but it was lifelike, and its eyes seemed to be still blinking. At first glance, it seemed to be alive, looking weird and weird. On the far right was a pot of dark black viscous blood, emitting a strong fishy smell.

After the offering, three crooked incense candles were listed on the platform, but the statue worshipped had green faces, fangs, three heads and six arms, and looked like a living evil ghost!

Sitting on the ground at the table was a man in Taoist robe, closing his eyes and concentrating his mind. He held his chest with one hand and made hand gestures, while dipping his blood in the other hand, drawing inexplicable symbols on the ground, muttering words, which was the person Du Bai saw on the street before.

But suddenly, he suddenly opened his eyes, but only saw the gloomy whites of his eyes and there was no pupil.

Immediately, a faint yin energy began to linger around him and gradually spread. The weird candlelight in the entire basement that should be airtight, and the shadows of various ghosts with claws kept flashing on the gray-brown walls.

In an instant, the Taoist priest vomited a mouthful of dirty blood, his face twitched violently, his eyes raised slightly and then returned to its original state, and his pupils also appeared again, but they still seemed to be slightly lost.

At this time, all the fire candles around were extinguished, and only the ghostly statue in front of him emitted a faint red light, reflecting the offerings in front of him.

"There is a master in the Su family." The Taoist priest wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his sleeves, his face gloomy.

If he hadn't made a quick decision, he would have been caught by the other party.

It’s a pity that the evil ghost he raised with the soul of his own son was damaged by his hands, and he suffered a violent backlash.

"Damn it!"

In the quiet basement, the painful panting sound became more and more intense, and his pupils became more and more red, and they flashed slightly as if they echoed the statue.

The face of the statue gradually distorted in the red light, and its already weird smile became more and more distorted and hideous, as if it was slowly coming alive.

In the house on the ground, two servants from the Liu family were waiting patiently with lanterns, but the temperature around them was decreasing, making them tighten their clothes and shrink. Occasionally, a few updates from outside the house were heard, which made them tremble slightly like soldiers, and almost couldn't even catch the lantern in their hands.

If it weren't for the sake of their livelihood, they wouldn't want to follow the Taoist master who was quite evil in the middle of the night to such a remote place. Not to mention the kind that the other party was using evil magic to kill people.

Just listening makes them feel scared and they can't even take steps.

"I went back this time and received the reward and went back to my hometown. I don't want to stay in this Liu Mansion anymore."

One of the servants lowered his voice and was afraid of being heard, so he muttered with a bitter face.

The man next to him also trembled uneasyly and frowned and said, "Yes, have you noticed that since the Taoist priest came, the people in the mansion have become strange. A few days ago, Brother Zhao was patrolling the night night, and he heard the crying of a child in the yard..."

"Look, I was seriously ill and sent to the clinic early yesterday morning. It is said that I was sucked by a ghost..."

At this moment, the small door leading to the basement was knocked from inside, which scared both of them to stop talking and look over.

One of them plucked up the courage to walk over slowly against the wall and asked in a low voice: "Master, what are you going to give?"

After a while, I couldn't hear a response.

When I was wondering, there was a slight stroking sound from behind the small door, as if someone was scratching the crack with his nails from behind.

The servant subconsciously took two steps back, but unexpectedly, the moment he retreated, the small door quickly opened a space that could only allow one person to pass through. A pair of arms that had lost their flesh and blood quickly stretched out and grabbed him. Before he could scream, he was already caught in.

No more noise.

Seeing this horrifying scene, the remaining servant collapsed on the ground with his hands and feet. He gradually ignited the falling lanterns on the ground, and in fear, he tried to escape from this ghost place.

But he scratched the ground for a long time without moving. He looked back in despair and found that at some point a pair of wet hands behind him had already grasped his ankles tightly.

A huge force dragged him back.

After a creepy chewing sound, a hoarse growl echoed in the space: "You all have to compensate me for what I have lost!"

**********

The next morning, Du Bai didn't know much about the messy things, so he just wanted to fill his stomach that was over-consuming last night and was rumbling. So before Ying'er could call him, he went to the kitchen to get the pot, carbon, and some seasonings, and planned to stew the braised food in a random way.

However, just as he was humming a little song and waiting for the delicious food, he suddenly saw the cute little Ying'er walking from the villa looking around, looking puzzled. After seeing the leisurely Du Bai, he was delighted, wanted to trot and remember the lady's usual teachings, so he had to walk over quickly with a little restrained attitude.

"Son-in-law!" The little girl walked up to her and squatted down obediently, blinking her big round eyes at him, looking forward to her.

"Hmm? What's wrong?" Du Bai shook the palm-leaf fan in his hand.

Ying'er asked pretty, "Son-in-law, where is the little fox you bought yesterday? Can you use Ying'er to touch it?"

Du Bai paused slightly when shaking the palm-leaf fan, looked up at the sky, his eyes slightly meaningful.

Maybe little girls prefer those furry animals, but it's not his fault...

"Son-in-law, the servant said that you took it away last night. Where did you hide it?" Unfortunately, the innocent Xiao Ying'er didn't understand the sinisterness of the world. She glanced around with big eyes, as if she was expecting a fluffy little fox to suddenly appear and pounce into her arms.
