The Heavens Begin with Detective Di Renjie

Chapter 163 The old knife handle
Although there are no ghosts in the ghost villa, it is indeed a villa, a villa built on a lonely mountain, hidden in white clouds and mist.

Before Shen Youzhi and Gongsun Lan entered the village, they saw a slender swordsman in white.

His whole body is almost integrated with the mist, and if you don't look carefully, you can't see the difference between the two.

This person is not a stranger, it is the "Wudang Little White Dragon" Ye Guhong whom Shen Youzhi met not long ago.

Taoist Mu is the founder of the ghost villa, and Ye Guhong is the son of Taoist Mu, so he is naturally one of the "ghosts" in the ghost villa.

And the reason why Shen Youzhi found this place is also due to him.

After seeing Ye Guhong, the ecstasy envoy felt that he retreated.

Of course, he wanted to go back to the iron chain connecting the netherworld and the secular world, and stop those living people who tried to cross the boundary.

Although he couldn't stop Shen Youzhi, there was only one Shen Youzhi in the world.

"You are here." Ye Guhong respected Shen Youzhi very much.

If it wasn't for Shen Youzhi's guidance, he might still be thinking of being the shadow of Ximen Chuuxue.

Although Ye Guhong is still wearing white clothes now, he no longer intentionally imitates Ximen Chuuxue as in the past, his demeanor, movements and expressions are all vivid, and he is no longer as cold and persistent as in the past.

Perhaps this is his own character.

"I'm here to find the old swordsman." Shen Youzhi said lightly.

"I'll lead the way for you." Ye Guhong nodded, and walked straight to the Ghost Villa.

He didn't ask Shen Youzhi why he came because he already knew the answer.

Shen Youzhi also didn't ask him, but just quietly followed his footsteps, and slowly walked into the misty mountain villa.

He went in, and of course Gongsun Lan would not stay outside.

"I don't know who made you go out to greet him in person, but it turned out to be a little boy!"

As soon as Shen Youzhi entered the villa, he heard a mocking sound.

The person who said this was standing pretty in front of him, blocking his way forward—a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl in red clothes.

There is no doubt that this haughty girl is the goddaughter of the old swordsman, Ye Ling, one of the nine elders of the ghost villa.

With the same identity as her, there are also Ye Guhong and Ye Xue.

The three of them are the godsons and daughters of the old swordsman in name.

But in fact, Ye Guhong and Ye Xue are the biological children of Lao Dao Bazi and Shen Sanniang, while Ye Ling is the illegitimate daughter born of Shen Sanniang and Ye Lingfeng without telling Lao Dao Bazi.

"Shut up!"

Ye Guhong looked at Ye Ling who spoke rudely, and immediately reprimanded him harshly.

In his heart, Shen Youzhi is his guide on the way of the sword, and no one can desecrate him, even if that person is his sister!

"You, you murder me!"

Tears welled up in Ye Ling's eyes, feeling extremely wronged.

She was spoiled by the old knife handle, and except for that annoying big leaf, the rest of the people in the ghost villa also treated her like a princess, so that she developed a rebellious and willful temper.

Usually, no matter how she plays her temper, others will endure her and let her go.

But now she just made a joke casually, and her brother scolded herself mercilessly in front of outsiders.

This naturally made her feel aggrieved and unacceptable.

"I don't care about anything else, but you can't be so disrespectful to Mr. Liu!" Ye Guhong said with a strong tone, "Apologize immediately!"

"You want me to apologize, but I don't apologize, I don't want to talk to you anymore!" Ye Ling ran out crying.

"I made you laugh." Ye Guhong apologized for Ye Ling.

He didn't chase his sister, because he knew that it didn't matter where her sister went, and no one would dare to hurt her here.

"It's okay, it's just a little girl." Shen Youzhi chuckled lightly.

He's not that small-minded yet, and he would get angry because of a word from the little girl who doesn't know the world.

"She is not young, she is already 17 years old!"

Another cold female voice came.

Not far away, a girl who looked beautiful but weak walked over.

She is Ye Guhong's other younger sister, Ye Xue.

"Why are you here?" Ye Guhong was puzzled.

His younger sister likes hunting the most, and she usually goes out for more than ten days.

The most important thing is that she has an indifferent personality and doesn't like to contact people, let alone go out to greet guests in person.

"The old knife said that a distinguished guest is coming, so I must come too."

Her tone of voice was like ice and snow, refreshingly cold.

She can not care about anyone, but the only thing she can't do is listen to the old swordsman.

Because this is a ghost villa, everyone here must obey the orders of the old knife without exception.

Shen Youzhi was not surprised by this explanation.

It would be even more unbelievable if he came here and the old swordsman still didn't know anything.

"Please." Ye Xue said lightly.

Shen Youzhi nodded slightly, and continued to walk towards the interior of the Ghost Villa.

Not long after walking behind Ye Guhong and Ye Xue, the brother and sister, Shen Youzhi and Gongsun Lan came to a small wooden house.

Although a lamp was lit in the room, the weak flame was not enough to illuminate the whole room, and the darkness was still the background color.

Through the dim light, Shen Youzhi saw a man in a gray robe and a bamboo hat.

There is no doubt that this person is the owner of the ghost villa, the old swordsman.

That is, the famous Wudang elder, Mu Taoist.

"Please sit down." The old knife pointed to the seat opposite him.

Hearing this, Shen Youzhi sat down very casually.

Seeing this, Gongsun Lan sat beside him calmly.

"Drink?" The old knife raised the wine jar in his hand.

It contains 50 years of aging wine, and a small jar can be worth hundreds of taels of silver.

"You know, I never drink." Shen Youzhi said lightly.

Hearing this, the old swordsman shrank his eyes hidden under the bamboo hat.

"I don't understand what you mean, we just met." He was still not sure if the other party was cheating himself.

"No." Shen Youzhi said bluntly, "We knew each other at least two years ago, didn't we?"

As soon as this remark came out, even Gongsun Lan couldn't help but widen his eyes.

Could it be that the man in the bamboo hat in front of them actually has other prominent identities in the outside world?
"I still don't understand what you're talking about." The old knife still didn't intend to admit it.

"The seducer outside is your apprentice." Shen Youzhi smiled lightly and said calmly, "His name is Shi."

"Ah!" The old swordsman sighed, interrupting Shen Youzhi's statement.

He already understood that Liu Mengxun was not trying to deceive him by playing tricks, but he really knew his true identity.

"How do you know this?"

He couldn't figure out why Liu Mengxun, who had always lived reclusively, knew these secrets.

You know, even Lu Xiaofeng, who is focused on tracking down the ghost villa, still doesn't know his true identity at this time.
