Qin Shuyue leaned against the corner drowsily.

The room was damp and cold, and her dress was covered with moisture from the night.

In order to preserve her body temperature as much as possible, she could only hug her arms tightly and shrink herself into a ball.

Qin Shuyue was waiting, she knew that His Highness the Fourth Prince would definitely come to rescue her.

After thinking like this for a while, she curled up in a corner and fell asleep again.

After an unknown amount of time, there was a sudden "click" at the door.

A ray of light hit Qin Shuyue's eyelids, and the eyes that hadn't seen the sun for a long time felt the unusual brightness keenly.

Qin Shuyue's eyes moved uneasily, and her body flinched again.

With the sound of footsteps, Qin Shuyue finally opened her eyes slowly.

Vaguely, she saw the door opened, and under the halo, a tall man stood in front of her.

Before she could react, the man squatted down halfway, staring at her with star-like eyes.

"Yue'er, you have suffered." The visitor's thin lips parted lightly, and the cold voice aroused Qin Shuyue's perception.

Hearing the familiar voice, tears filled Qin Shuyue's eyes instantly, and she threw herself into the man's arms.

"Xuanyue, you are finally here!" She shouted in a crying voice.

Baili Xuanyue wrapped his arms around her waist and whispered in her ear, "The Qin residence is in chaos now, come with me."

……

[It's not empty. 】

Qin Manjing was practicing, when she heard the system's words by accident, she withdrew from the cultivation state.

She withdrew her gesture, and then asked, "Already here?"

The system immediately replied:

[He's coming to Lanpu Courtyard, host, it looks like he's here to look for you. 】

As soon as the system finished speaking, Qin Manjing grabbed the original spirit orb and retreated from the secret realm.

The scene in front of her changed rapidly, and the next moment, a familiar decoration appeared in front of her eyes.

Incomplete wooden tables, damp corners, and cracked porcelain bowls.

Qin Manjing was taken aback for a moment, and instantly sensed something was wrong.

The door of the room was open, there were some traces of dragging on the ground, and some unknown liquid remained on the ground.

"Someone has been here!" She thumped in her heart, and immediately came to this conclusion.

[Host, when you entered the secret realm, I have been sharing part of the energy to perceive the outside world, but I didn't feel anyone coming. 】

Qin Manjing narrowed her eyes, got up and checked the room carefully.

The room was not big and there was nothing in it, so she checked it out without much effort.

Except for some suspicious traces that appeared out of thin air, there was nothing more or less in the house.

But Qin Manjing became more and more uneasy.

This is a kind of intuition. Looking at the slowly swaying dead wood outside the house, she always has a premonition that a storm is coming.

[Host, the small positioning device on Bukong was destroyed, and I lost his location information. 】

Qin Manjing was busy analyzing the dragging trace that appeared out of nowhere, and asked casually, "Then what about the location of the dangerous person?"

[Bukong's favorability towards you has always been 0, never increased or decreased, so the positioning of a dangerous person doesn't work for him. 】

Qin Manjing frowned, and stood up from the ground, "If the device is destroyed, what could be the reason? Did he find out?"

The system murmured:
[It is possible, but it may also be an accident. 】

Qin Manjing turned her eyes back to the trace on the ground, and then followed the trace outside the house, she wanted to see where the source of the trace was.

The courtyard of Lanpuyuan is very small, and you can have a panoramic view of the scenery at a glance.The courtyard is still the same as before, without any change.

If so, how could a trace appear out of thin air?

Qin Manjing asked herself in her heart, and even she couldn't find the answer for a while.

Someone who has been here will surely find out that she is not in the yard.

But apart from leaving a trace in her room, this person left silently. What is his intention?
Qin Manjing didn't understand, nor could she guess.

Who is this person?What does he want to do?
Could it be that this person notified Bukong when he found out that she was not in Lanpu Courtyard, so Bukong came here at this time?
If so...

Qin Manjing calmed down, so she could only play by ear.

If Bukong knew that she was not being properly imprisoned, perhaps even more difficult things would happen.

Thinking of this, Qin Manjing suddenly fell to the ground, rolled around on the dirt, and then stopped moving.

Not long after, the sound of mighty footsteps came from outside the courtyard.

There are so many people here, Qin Manjing thought in her heart, the visitors were not kind.

Then there was a loud friction sound on the old wooden door, and a group of people opened the courtyard door and walked in.

Qin Manjing looked at the people who came with her eyes. The leader was Bu Kong, who was wearing a monk's uniform. He was leaning on a Zen stick, dressed as usual.

Qin Guogong and Wang Peiqin hid in the crowd and watched her. After Qin Manjing looked over, they both took a few steps back. They supported each other and looked at her with a trace of fear in their eyes.

'Fear? "Qin Manjing felt normal in her heart, shouldn't they dare not even step into the Lanpu Courtyard?"

She flicked her eyes, and saw Changji who was smiling at her in the crowd again, that little man poked his head out of the crowd.

Qin Manjing immediately looked away.

"Go in and have a look!" Bukong's indifferent voice sounded, and he said to the servants behind him.

The next moment, Qin Manjing stood up with innocence in her eyes, "Old bald donkey, old bald donkey..."

Bukong ignored her disrespectful words, but insisted on sending someone into the house to check.

Qin Manjing looked around, her heart sank.

If Bukong didn't come to find her, what did he come for?Why insist on sending someone into the house to check?
At this time, she suddenly remembered the trace that appeared out of nowhere in the house. Could there be any relationship between the two?

Never Kong walked up to the first few servants, they pushed Qin Manjing away, and planned to walk in.

Qin Manjing staggered a few steps, stabilized her body, and followed them. It was impossible for her to stop her at this time.

This group of people ignored her thoughts at all, they only cared about the tasks assigned by Bukong, ignored Qin Manjing's figure, and walked straight into the main house of Lanpu Courtyard.

Suddenly, a pungent smell appeared in Qin Manjing's nasal cavity.

She is familiar with this smell, and the closer it is to the main house, the stronger the smell becomes.

It's the smell of blood...

But why didn't she find anything in the house just now!
After the group of people smelled the smell, they quickened their pace, and a young servant in the front pushed open the door in one fell swoop.

Everyone gasped, and some even turned their eyes away and ran to the corner to vomit.

At this moment, a servant shouted behind him, "Master Bukong has found it!"

Qin Manjing stared at everything in front of her in a daze. She saw the end of the trail, where she hadn't found anything.

Huineng's body stayed there, his two arms and legs almost severed.

But his head was still firmly on the ground, and he wanted to use his head to crawl out of the room, and the strange trace was produced by dragging his forehead on the ground.

He was still alive when his limbs were severed...

Qin Manjing's room was already flooded by the smell of blood. The non-existent blood stains covered the entire wall and floor, almost drowning the trace.

This is impossible……

Qin Manjing unconsciously took two steps back before she came out of the room, how could this happen.

She glanced back a few times, with a look of disgust and horror on their faces.

Wang Peiqin seemed to have expected it and said: "Master, it was this disaster star who did it. She was able to kill little master Huineng."

"Perhaps she is also responsible for the recent strange things in our mansion...she must be a monster, and she must also be possessed by a monster."

Seemingly thinking of Xue Changlin's words, she opened her mouth as if suddenly enlightened.

"Master, you must help us!" Seeing Bukong, Qin Guogong pleaded with his pale face trembling.

Bukong's indifferent eyes finally wavered, and he stared at Qin Manjing, "Did you kill Huineng?"

There was some hesitation in that tone.

Even Bukong himself was dubious, how could an unarmed mortal kill a cultivator who practiced Qi at the sixth level?

I've got some text, let me sort it out, sorry everyone
