The Chen Mansion is in an inconspicuous part of the mansion, not too remote and gloomy, but not close to the main road or next to the core area, which is a high-profile and easy to attract attention.

The whole house covers a very large area, but it is really low-key. And if it weren't for Qingsi leading the way in front, I'm afraid that Changning and Lu Ming would not be able to find the inconspicuous gate of the Chen Mansion in the four gray courtyard walls standing tall and tall, which is too narrow and low compared to the wide and heavy doors of the deep mansion courtyard next to it.

There is a plaque on the top of the gate, which is engraved with the word Chen Fu, not painted, hidden under the narrow eaves, which is very easy to be ignored, and I don't know whether it is deliberately low-key or there is some unknown secret reason to make it look like this.

However, apart from the strangely low-key courtyard wall, however, the house looked like any ordinary mansion in the vicinity. The same high walls, the same rejection of people thousands of miles away, the same can't reveal the slightest breath of the people living inside.

There was no ghostly and gloomy feeling, nor was there the sky-high soul resentment that could be felt from outside the array when I saw the few soul confusion arrays in the forest a few days ago.

Lu Ming took out the Zhiyou bead and shook it outside the wall of the Chen Mansion, but there was no reaction, and the bead was quiet like an ordinary stone.

Changning looked at Qing Si with some confusion.

Qing Si's face was solemn, and he explained: "The poor monk came here for the first time, and he didn't feel anything wrong. It wasn't until I entered the door that I vaguely felt that something was wrong. The smell of dirt and filth is extremely weak, mixed with the turbidity of the world. If it weren't for the fact that Buddhism itself says that we can see the true appearance from the vast and countless external appearances, the poor monks may not be able to distinguish it for a while. ”

Changning nodded clearly. It's just that if he and Luming can't sense the breath in Chen's mansion at all, how can he cooperate with Qing Si?

Expressing the doubts in his heart, Qing Si replied, "There is no need to worry about this. If there is really evil in it, it is impossible not to feel the prayer flags of the poor monks. Under the conflict, the breath fluctuated, enough to leak out a little bit, and it could already be perceived by those who approached. And at that time, I will send a Buddha bead into the air as a letter, so that even if the array of the Chen Mansion is strong enough to block the transmission of the breath, the two of them can still use this Buddha bead as a reference to break into the house to help the poor monks. ”

Lu Ming nodded: "Okay, then we will wait for your signal outside." ”

When Lu Ming said this, Qing Si had already folded his hands, recited the Buddha's name, stepped up the steps, and knocked on the door of the Chen Mansion. The door creaked open, leaning out half of his body, a man dressed like a butler, respectfully welcoming Qing Si in, and then the door squeaked and closed again, as if he didn't want to open it for a moment.

At this moment, Changning and Lu Ming, who had already dodged and hid under the shadow of the tree, saw that the eyebrows of the person who opened the door were wrapped with black gas, like living creatures. The butler-like man had sunken cheeks and a blank look, and even his clothes looked bigger, and he was empty on his body. During the whole process of opening the door to welcome guests, he was silent and eerily silent.

And the Zhiyou Bead that Lu Ming held in his hand also lit up slightly for a moment when the door opened, and then dimmed again as the door closed.

Silently put away the Zhiyou Pearl, and Lu Ming looked around. After Qing Si entered the Chen Mansion, she and Chang Ning needed to find a secluded place and wait quietly for Qing Si to send a signal. Although there are low trees around them except for the high walls, it is not difficult for the two of them. Sit down cross-legged in the corner of the wall facing the gate of the Chen Mansion, and then use the sword concealment technique, unless someone who is a level higher than the realm has the intention to investigate, even if someone stands in front of the two of them, they will definitely not notice that there are two big living people hidden in this shadow.

And after Qing Si entered the Chen Mansion, although his face did not change, his heart was cold.

It had only been a little more than an hour since he left, and the black aura of the butler who had greeted him earlier had already grown a lot. Although it seemed that the butler was still acting as usual, it was obvious that his breath had weakened a lot. I'm afraid that if this situation continues for another day or two, it will follow in the footsteps of the old lady.

And the gloomy and filthy aura that had escaped from the entire mansion and crept on the ground before was not only condensed a little, but also became more restrained. It feels like a toddler baby, and suddenly becomes a child who can talk and eat by himself and know how to read people's faces.

This evil aura has also learned to avoid any character who doesn't seem to be a good bully, and carefully hides himself, lurking in all kinds of dark corners and crevices, so that De Qingsi almost didn't find it.

At this moment, the Chen Mansion does not seem to have any changes from the outside, but the inside is like a masonry beast, and the yin and evil qi that roams in the mansion is the blood of this beast, and the people of the Mansion are reduced to the food it slowly digests and swallows.

I don't know where the core of this anomaly is, and whether the sudden acceleration of the anomaly is inextricably linked to the arrival of Qing Si.

With this in mind, Qing Si followed the butler all the way to the backyard. It was said that he was in a hurry, but the butler was hobbling and walking slowly, and every time he walked deeper into the courtyard, Qing Si could see that the black qi on the eyebrows of the people under the passing servants was more raging, and the severity was getting worse. Later, the eyes of some of the subordinates were no longer bright, and only the dull and sluggish remained, or they repeated some simple and monotonous tasks, or wandered on a certain section of the path, or even stood in place, only to look up when they cleared their minds, looked at them with godless eyes, and then lowered their heads again.

The butler who led the way seemed to turn a blind eye, and just walked all the way to the depths of the courtyard with stumbling and funny small steps.

Wherever Qing Si walked behind him, a wriggling mist gradually obscured the path he had come. If he turned around at this moment, he could see that the afternoon sun was warm and warm in front of him, and everyone and everything behind him remained in the same posture as he had just walked by, as if frozen in place by ice, and then swallowed by the mist.

Qing Si closed his eyes slightly, silently recited a scripture, and walked forward step by step, as if he had not checked all the visions around him.

Outside the Chen Mansion, in an unnoticeable shadow, Changning, who was quietly pranayama, suddenly opened his eyes. His gaze penetrated the courtyard formation in front of him, penetrated the high wall and the countless trees behind the high wall, and landed somewhere on the path that Qing Si was now advancing.

There, a mist slowly unfolded as if it were alive, like a flower condensed with the deepest sin.
