I have a book of ghosts and gods

Chapter 782 Haunted House (Seeking Subscription Monthly Pass)

Seeing him like this, Jiang Zhou knew that with his heart, if there was something unspeakable, he would definitely not act like this.

At the moment, he just smiled, and did not continue to speak provocatively.

But the more he was like this, the more Lin Shushu felt embarrassed.

Looking at the bitter face of Huang Bai beside him, he sighed and said:
"Huang Bai, it's not that the sect wants to be mean to you and other outer sect disciples, it's... the situation is like this."

He paused and continued: "You haven't been a beginner for a long time, but you don't know that it started decades ago,"

"There are different sects and factions in the world, but some who have seen the past have spent a lot of resources since decades ago, refining various elixirs and magic weapons, and cultivating disciples of the disciples,"

"That's why in the past few decades, more outstanding disciples of the younger generation have emerged in an endless stream than before,"

"Up to the last few years, I have begun to use my background, completely let go of all kinds of scruples, fully developed, and secretly refined countless Dharma protectors,"

"Thousands of years of experience have exploded in just a few years..."

Hearing this, Jiang Zhou suddenly said, "It's no wonder your cultivation base has skyrocketed. Is it because of this?"

Lin Shushu said disdainfully: "My son is born extraordinary, how can he be someone who only knows how to rely on external forces?"

Jiang Zhou curled his lips: "Just say it, right?"

"..."

Lin Shushu was silent for a moment, and finally said reluctantly: "Although there is a reason for this, after all, I am born to be extraordinary..."

Jiang Zhou interrupted with a wave: "Okay, I understand."

What talent is extraordinary?
No matter how talented you are, if you don't have the resources, you're just useless.

Experts are made by piling up resources.

So did he himself.

He has more resources than ordinary people can imagine, so in just two years, he has become a rare third-rank real person in the world from a weak person with no power to restrain a chicken.

For the first time, Lin Shushu felt that this person was so vile and disgusting!
But there was nothing he could do about it, so he had to ignore it, and said to Huang Bai: "In the past two years, the sect has spent a lot of energy refining jade bone sword soldiers, so the annual tribute has indeed increased a bit."

"The reason for this is not worth mentioning, but it is also for the continuation of the sect in the future. It is not to be mean to you. You should be considerate."

Jiang Zhou's gaze swept over Lin Shushu. Although he didn't continue, Jiang Zhou had already heard some words.

As he said, the Immortal Sect of the World began to exert its strength dozens of years ago, and in recent years it has "exploded troops" wantonly, so why?
Just fighting for the "artifact" for today's game of chess?
For some reason, Jiang Zhou's mind flashed the words he said not long ago before the Buddha's palm print fell into a deep sleep.

"Be careful... Great Tribulation..."

Regardless of Jiang Zhou's thoughts, Huang Bai didn't express any complaints or dissatisfaction when he heard the words, or even if he did, he didn't dare to express it.

He just nodded his head and said: "Yes, this disciple is deeply favored by the sect, so why would he complain in his heart?"

"The disciple said this, not to complain, but to let the sword master understand that the disciple is indeed in trouble now, and staying here is a helpless act."

He hesitated for a moment, and then continued with a bit of trepidation: "To tell the truth, the sword master, this disciple has been in business for many years, and I have quite a lot of savings, but not long ago, a strange thing happened..."

"Because of this strange incident, not only did I lose all my savings, but... even..."

He hesitated for a while, but still couldn't speak.

Lin Shushu said impatiently: "What's the matter? Don't hesitate!"

Huang Bai was startled, and quickly said: "Even the New Year's Tribute prepared this year... also..."

Lin Shushu understood, her face darkened: "But the Sui Gong was stolen?"

He was not angry because Huang Bai lost his yearly tribute, but because someone dared to break ground on Jade Sword City.

Huang Bai closed his eyes, and simply said: "It wasn't stolen, it was those old tributes who ran away by themselves!"

"what?"

Lin Shushu frowned, thinking that she had misheard.

"Run away by yourself?"

Jiang Zhou also recovered his mind and looked over.

"It is true that he ran away."

Huang Bai smiled wryly.

Even for immortal sects like Jade Sword City, who are used to seeing monsters, this matter is indeed still somewhat inconceivable.

Lin Shushu said: "Could it be that someone used the technique of teleportation? Or ghost transport?"

Huang Bai shook his head: "Although this disciple is not good at learning art, he has seen this kind of strange art before, it doesn't seem like this."

"The sword master doesn't know that the disciples live here, and the strange things that happened don't stop there, we need to start from the beginning."

Lin Shushu said impatiently: "Tell me, I want to see who the hell is, who even dares to move things in my Jade Sword City."

"Yes."

Huang Bai responded and started from the beginning.

"At the beginning, Na Yazi reminded his disciples that this is a haunted house."

"This villa has been around for a long time, and no one knows exactly when and who built it. It's just that he received it from a merchant."

"Through his hands, several people have been sold, but without exception, after they moved in, strange things happened frequently, and several people died, and they didn't dare to live anymore, they all moved out,"

"The disciple didn't take it to heart at the time, thinking that he had also learned art in Jade Sword City Middle School, and there were quite a few strange people under his command, so he should be able to deal with it..."

When Huang Bai said this, he smiled wryly: "But on the first night I lived in the manor, I held a banquet in the manor to entertain the guests to celebrate the housewarming."

"During the banquet, a disciple suddenly came to report, and an old woman came outside the door, insisting on seeing the disciple,"

"The disciple thought it was an old man, so he went out to meet the old woman, but he didn't know her before."

"But as soon as the old woman saw the disciple, she asked the disciple, since there is a banquet, why not invite her?"

"This disciple just treats her as a village woman from somewhere. She wants to win some prizes and doesn't bother with her. However, the banquet is full of relatives and friends of the disciple, and it is inconvenient to let her in. So I ordered my servants to prepare a table of wine and vegetables. Pack it up and send it to her to take away."

"Who would have thought that this old woman would scold the disciple after receiving the food and drink, and said that if she neglected her so much, the disciple would suffer disasters in the future?"

"It is even more clear that the property in the disciple's home will leave the disciple."

Lin Shushu's eyes brightened when he heard this: "This old woman stole Sui Gong? Do you know where she is?"

Huang Bai shook his head and smiled wryly: "I'm not afraid of the sword master's jokes, I really don't know if this woman stole the old tribute."

"It's just that after the old woman left, although the disciple didn't believe it, he asked people to send more people every night to take care of the property in the house, especially the old tribute in the treasury,"

"Until not long ago, one night, someone at home saw a group of people, all dressed in green clothes, riding green horses, coming from nowhere, passing by the gate of the manor, and soon disappeared into the night."

"Not long after, another group of men and horses, dressed in white and riding white horses, passed by the door again, but they were still completely silent, and they went away."

"After a while, another group of men and horses, wearing yellow clothes and riding yellow horses, passed by the door, but they opened their mouths and asked my family's servants, what is the name of Wang...Where is Wang Ping's home? place,"

"Without getting an answer, the team left again."

At this moment, Jiang Zhou suddenly said: "These three teams of people are supposed to be the property of the owner of Huang Zhuang, right?"
