Infinity through different life

Chapter 123

The reason why Xu Jing wanted to find the Ren family's mansion was to test the other party's strength after the old master Ren came out of the coffin.

If he can deal with it, he doesn't have to wait for the best opportunity, it's better to solve it as soon as possible, so as not to cause any changes.

At this time when the lights are on, people in the town will never go to bed early. Although this era is not as advanced as the modern technological world, people's nightlife has been rich and colorful from ancient times to the present.

Xu Jing simply walked around the field a few times, hunted down some wild animals that came out to move around, and waited until it was almost midnight before jumping into the town.

The street was quiet and there was no one.

As a well-known big family here, the Ren family naturally doesn't live in an ordinary house.

Xu Jing searched along the street, and hid in the darkness when he encountered a watchman, and soon he found a unique style mansion vaguely similar to the one he saw in the movie.

Street lamps stood on both sides of the gate of the house, illuminating the empty front yard.

He was not sure if he had found the wrong person, so he jumped in from the wall next to the locked iron gate and walked all the way to the inner hall.

The lights in the inner hall were dim, and through the windows, it was faintly visible that there were still people moving inside.

Xu Jing quietly came to one of the half-open windows, turned his head and looked in.

I saw an old man and a young girl standing in the dimly lit hall. The young girl was very beautiful, while the old man looked like a rich man.

The old man lit three sticks of incense, and was inserting them into the incense burner in front of a portrait, and then bowed once and then three times, and the girl beside him also burned incense and bowed three times.

Xu Jing turned his eyes to the portrait, and recognized at a glance that it was Mrs. Ren, and it was exactly the same as the photo on the cemetery.

He knew that he had found the right place, this was Ren Mansion, and the old man and girl in the hall must be Master Ren and Ren Tingting.

Now that he knew the place, he didn't need to stay any longer, but at this moment, Ren Tingting's sudden inquiry made him stop in his tracks.

"Daddy, how did grandpa die when he was so young?"

"You're not afraid to tell you when you're so old. He was pissed off when he saw the money turned into water. He knew that the price of salt would rise that year. He bought three hundred shi from the salt merchant and paid the money in one lump sum. How could he know the price of salt? Shang casually ordered someone to bring it here, without any precautions, but there was a heavy rain on the way, and the three hundred shi salt was gone, and he went back to find the salt merchant to make a theory, but he was very angry."

Listening to the conversation between Mr. Ren and his daughter, Xu Jing suddenly understood the reason why Mr. Ren held his breath before he died.

However, he doesn't sympathize with the other party at all. If he can do such things as intimidating the Feng Shui master and buying other people's own cemetery, he must not be a good person himself.

Sure enough, the dialogue between the Ren family's father and daughter proved his guess.

"Why is that salt merchant so treacherous?"

"As the saying goes, profiteers and profiteers can't do business without cheating. Your grandfather is also such a person, but after all, he doesn't do business without being familiar with it."

"It turned out to be pissed off. No wonder when the coffin was opened, the muscles on the face were tense, so ugly."

"Stop talking nonsense, it's late, go to bed."

"I've been busy all day today, dad should go to bed early too."

After the father and daughter of the Ren family left inside, Xu Jing was also about to leave. Before he left, he turned his head and looked at the inner hall again, but suddenly found that one of the three sticks of incense inserted in the incense burner had been extinguished, and the remaining two We burn short rapidly.

He remembered what Uncle Jiu said in the movie: People are most afraid of three long and two short, and the most taboo about incense is two short and one long. If this incense comes out of the house, someone will definitely be mourned.

"I don't know if this statement is effective in the main world?"

Suspicion suddenly flashed in Xu Jing's heart. In addition, he also thought, if the secret books of exercises learned after traveling across the world, would they still be useful after returning?
For a moment, he was extremely irritable, a little worried about gains and losses, thinking about various problems, and gradually fell into deep thought, and he didn't notice the servant of the Ren family who came out to make an inspection.

"Who's there?"

A slightly flustered shout sounded.

Xu Jing came back to his senses, looked up, and the servant holding the lantern screamed in fright.

"There's a ghost!"

"Someone! Help!"

The servant threw away the lantern, turned around and ran, while shouting continuously, the whole Ren Mansion was lit up one by one in an instant, and all the people who had just rested were awakened.

Xu Jing's thoughts were interrupted. At this moment, his originally irritable mood was inexplicably aroused with raging anger, and a fierce light began to shine in his eyes.

"Roar~!"

He spewed out a puff of white smoke, jumped a few steps and chased after him, stretched out his hands, and grabbed the fleeing servant.

"what--!"

When the servant looked back, he staggered in fright and threw himself on the ground, only to escape a catastrophe.

"What's wrong with me?"

After Xu Jing's blow unexpectedly missed, he was stunned for a few seconds, and his eyes gradually recovered.

"Don't eat me!"

The servant who fell on the ground was so frightened that he cried out, and fled towards Ren's mansion.

Xu Jing sighed, didn't chase anymore, just jumped outside, and left the Ren mansion in time before the Ren family came out to check carefully, and disappeared into the darkness.

If you chase down the servant who sees him, the other person will turn into a zombie and directly expose his existence. If you let the other person go, the result may be better.

In addition, he was also a little puzzled about the violent reaction of his body just now.

"How could this be?"

Traveling to other worlds before, Xu Jing was not unaffected by instinct, but he had never been so almost completely dominated by instinct like this time.

What's more, his soul has already reached the first level, so logically speaking, this kind of problem shouldn't happen.

At this moment, Xu Jing had concerns about whether to exchange for a zombie body. The current body is only a low-level zombie state, and there is such a problem. If he continues to improve in the future, who knows if there will be more serious problems? Problems, even affect his soul when summoned.

"Maybe I should ask someone who understands."

The first thing Xu Jing thought of was Uncle Jiu, but he began to worry about his identity as a zombie.

He remembered that there was another movie in the same line, in which Uncle Nine expressed his firm stand, including Maoshan's first commandment-the opposition between good and evil, fighting for life.

From this point of view, it seemed that there was no hope of gaining Uncle Jiu's trust.

Xu Jing left the town smoothly all the way. After hesitating for a moment at the intersection, he changed direction and headed for Yizhuang. No matter what, he wanted to try it.

When he was halfway through the jump, a heavy fog suddenly appeared in the mountain forest next to him, and there was a sound of gongs and drums that ordinary people could not hear at all.

Immediately afterwards, four paper man bearers, carrying the sedan chair, appeared from the mist in mid-air and walked in front of him.

"You female ghost, what do you want to do?"

Xu Jing subconsciously thought that Dong Xiaoyu was here to trouble him again, but he quickly remembered a plot in the movie, and realized that he seemed to have misunderstood.
