"Didn't my mother say that you were protecting her and Yu Xiaoxue's safety?" I frowned, worried, and got dressed as I listened to the phone.

"No! I came back yesterday to give advice to my eldest cousin. Together with Uncle Zhao, I was also going to the city to talk about a few important business, and I didn't think about going, but my aunt said that I had been safe for so long, and there should be no problem in a day or two. But next door, I said that the store was closed when I just left! It hasn't been opened to this day. The next-door neighbor was worried about knocking on the door, and there was no sound! Miao Xiaoci recounted.

"Okay, I'll go back and have a look!"

It's no wonder that Miao Xiaoci is doing this, she is also busy with several things now, and her business has expanded into the city, so she can be regarded as my right-hand man in business.

"I'll go too! It's all my fault for being derelict in my duties, where are you, Brother Tian? Miao Xiaoci felt guilty and almost cried.

"Don't go, do a good job of this business, my mother is not an ordinary person. Maybe she'll be back in a moment. I'll go to Chenghuang and ask about the situation. I hung up with a few words of relief.

I drove an off-road vehicle and drove quickly to Linxian, and my thoughts were in a mess on the road, was it the Purple Emperor Gate or the Empty Xuanmen? Or something else?

But listening to Miao Xiaoxi's description, the store was closed by her mother herself, that is, she left voluntarily, what is this?

When I arrived in Linxian, I took the spare key and opened the door, and just went in. A smell of oil from farm machinery choked the nose, and it had been closed for a day and a night.

Seeing that I opened the door, the neighbor next door came to me: "Your mother doesn't know where to go, she closed the door yesterday, and I'm worried to death." ”

"Thank you, Aunt Liu." I said gratefully, looking around for the clues left by my mother, there were no traces of a fight in the house, there should have been no accidents, and the person walked by himself.

Her phone and Yu Xiaoxue's phone couldn't get through, I thought about a group of relatives, but in addition to the Zhou family, I didn't think of other relatives and friends at all, my mother's range of activities was only the periphery, and after she disappeared, only the neighbor next door was worried.

I went to my mother's room, the sheets were neat, the shoes were in the same order, everything was in order, and I still didn't find the slightest trace of my mother's departure.

When I was checking, suddenly a burst of yin qi leaked out from downstairs, I was startled, took out the whisk and ran downstairs, stunned in my heart of this ghostly energy, and the reason for the sudden disappearance.

I was amazed, could it be that my mother had harmed the ghosts!

The ghost qi was still coming out of the ground, and I was shocked by the surging ghost energy, and secretly felt that there was something hidden underneath.

I'm a little scared, will my mother and Yu Xiaoxue be killed by the ghost and buried under the house?

After searching along the place where the ghost was coming from, I finally pushed the cargo away from the staircase.

A conspicuous square made my face change, this is the basement!

When did Mother hide a basement here?

"Oh, this basement was built when the house was built before, your mother said that it was used for cargo storage, and then I haven't seen her mention it, look at this posture, it's been sealed for a long time, it's all dust, little nephew, what are you looking for this basement?" Aunt Liu said casually.

"I thought I was discovering it for the first time, but I hadn't heard my mother say it before." I said, I haven't seen the architectural drawings, but listening to Aunt Liu, it seems that this was prepared when my mother moved in!

What's in there! Why hasn't this secret mother ever mentioned it?

"I'm going to get busy first, after you find your mother, remember to say, maybe it's a distant relative?" Aunt Liu shook her head, glanced at the basement entrance, and walked outside.

I said goodbye, and ran to close the roller shutter door, and I really couldn't bear it with another person like Aunt Liu, besides, the ghost spirit in the basement was still bubbling up, and it was too dangerous in broad daylight!

I opened the heavy wooden planks in the basement, and the gloomy air came to my face, so I turned on all the lights and walked inside.

Only then did he take a step in, and the ghost aura was gone!

I hurriedly rushed in and flashed the flashlight on my phone, found the switch of the light, and when I turned it on, the entire basement also lit up.

The basement was completely different from what I had imagined, empty, only an ordinary table was placed in the center, and I walked over while feeling the change in yin qi, the table was full of dust and dirty, but there was a place that was very clean, the size of a leather suitcase.

Originally, this position seemed to be placed in a split direction, and it had just been taken away, but at this time, a letter was placed in the clean position, with a few words written on it.

My face changed slightly, did my mother know that I was coming here, so she put the letter here?

But that's not right, it's all dust outside, and no one is coming in at all!

"Where the hell came from, come out! Exorcising spirits and binding evil spirits, giving orders to come, and borrowing from ghosts! Summoning ghosts! I snorted, and the blue charm was thrown into the air, trying to restrain the ghost.

As a result, he didn't attract half a wandering ghost at all.

The calm around me let my guard down, and I picked up the letter, opened it, and removed the paper inside.

The font is delicate, not quite the same as my grandmother, I glanced at it, and my expression was mixed.

"One day, when you opened this letter, you should already know Ruize's identity, yes, he is your own brother, not the half-brother you think, but your real brother who is like a fake, I concealed this matter because I didn't want both of you to be involved, so at that time you said that you wanted to identify the relationship with him, I was very angry, but then I thought about it, maybe from the time you met, your fate was doomed, and after you recognized each other, you could no longer get rid of the entanglement of fate, so I asked you to stay away from the Xia family, which is one of the reasons, Of course, more importantly, the Xia family is beyond your ability to contend with, bypassing them, for you and for Ruize, their respective roads will be smooth and wide. ”

"You have been calculated since you were born, and Ruize has become the orthodox successor of the Confucian Xia family in the future, so your existence has become a living chess piece on the Xia family's chessboard, and this living chess is destined to be at the expense of you, this secret, from the moment I knew, has become a lingering nightmare and disaster, in order not to let you become a pawn they use to sacrifice, I escaped from the Xia family, and it was your grandmother who saved me."

"The matter of the blood cloud coffin involves the heavens, neither I nor your grandmother want you to get involved, so you can cultivate with peace of mind and live a good life, your grandmother entered the blood cloud coffin, it is not completely passive, but your grandmother has already calculated the good thing, this matter is all in her expectations, remember, in the competition between the two sides, you are your grandmother's last hole card, you must be good, don't act recklessly."

"Don't try to waste time coming to me and Xiaoxue, this matter is planned, we are all right, there is no need to worry."

After reading the letter, my face turned pale, thinking of Xia Ruize, I felt a sadness inexplicably, it turned out that he was really my brother, maybe my mother didn't expect that I didn't get the appraisal report at all.

As I was stunned, there was a cool air in my hand, and I suddenly let go of the letter, and the letter turned gray, and then, along with the envelope, fell into ashes, and a gust of wind blew, leaving nothing behind.

"Who!" I turned my head around, and the dust in my hands shook.

"Hehehehehe......"

A strange and cold voice came from all directions, and then drifted away, sounding like an old woman's voice, and my hair stood on top with fear.

It's tantamount to daylight.

Leaving the basement, I sat on the chair and fell into deep thought, Xia Ruize is really my brother, but I am in a completely different situation from him, one wants to be the orthodox successor, and the other is a chess piece that has been calculated and wants to die!

It's all my own flesh and blood, of course my mother doesn't want me to die, I don't know where I heard the secret, but my mother escaped, fled to my grandmother, my grandmother calculated everything, who did she hand over to the matter of the blood cloud coffin?

Zhou Xuan? The first name that popped up was her, and this little cousin has always been very mysterious, and behind the background has to repeatedly turn evil into auspiciousness, and tens of thousands of ghost soldiers are fine when they fill the blood cloud coffin.

I'm my grandmother's last hole card, what do hole cards mean? I myself seek the strength of the peak, not to mention the hole cards, not even the most basic cards.

Grandma's wisdom is extraordinary, maybe she has calculated everything back then, and married the nine princesses to me as a child daughter-in-law, so that the hole cards are said to be in the past, and the existence of the hole cards is nothing more than the nine princesses.

I was depressed, and my grandmother and mother seemed to treat me as a child and maintained me everywhere, which couldn't help but make me feel a little helpless. Cloth asks for a brother.

In their eyes, as the soul urn of the Nine Princesses, as long as I am alive, I don't need to work hard for anything, I just want to live a good life by myself.

Isn't everything I have done before, all my birth and death, denied?

I was depressed, left home, drove to Guanyin Mountain, and took the road to Chenghuang Mansion.

In the city god, several generals recognized me, so they took me to Wei Ziling, and seeing that I was in a depressed mood, they immediately invited beauties and wine and meat to entertain me.

The guests were happy.

Wei Ziling invited me to sit with me, and as soon as I hid my future affairs and said it casually, Wei Ziling felt great sympathy and comforted me.

"That kid from Zuochen, now that he is a city god, he is still moving troops in front of me, and the letter has been boasting there that he now has thousands of ghost generals and more than 10,000 troops, which is so powerful that it is boundless! I'm only a few of the more than 200 ghost generals around, and he's so shameless. Wei Ziling laughed and drank with me with a wine cup.

"Hehe, in fact, he just beat Zhou Xuan miserably last time, otherwise maybe there would really be five hundred." I laughed along, this Zuochen is indeed a person who can do this, and the so-called hypocrisy is true, but I can't blame him.

"This kid is too unreliable." Wei Ziling laughed after hearing this.

After drinking back and forth, Wei Ziling and I were both drunk.
