At this mont, Qiu Minmin was covered in a layer of mud, pouncing towards Mao Chang’an from behind.
Mao Chang’an sidestepped once more, his hand reaching out with a silver needle, piercing Qiu Minmin, then pulling on the silk thread to bring them closer, he kicked her aside.
"Bang!"
Qiu Minmin, who was already severely weakened, was knocked to the ground.
Just as Mao Chang’an was about to ride on top of her to use the silver thread to sever Qiu Minmin’s head, Zhao Junfeng appeared, forcing Mao Chang’an to give up and quickly retreat.
As he retreated, he shouted, "Please help subdue the corpse!"
Li Zhiyuan clapped his hands, "You all continue, we won’t disturb you."
After speaking, he began to retreat.
"You..."
Mao Chang’an’s eyes were about to burst, and in that instant, he finally realized, "You’re not from the Dragon King family!"
Li Zhiyuan ignored him, continued to retreat, Yin ng and Tan Wenbin also retreated with him. After all three had retreated to a safe enough distance, they stopped to watch the show.
Tan Wenbin couldn’t help but ask again, "Brother Xiao Yuan?"
"That night in the dance studio, I tried to control Qiu Minmin, only to find she was controlled by another consciousness, a possessed ghost.
Previously, when I saw Mao Zhushan using that doll to control these two corpses, I felt puzzled.
It’s said this evil technique couldn’t control corpses.
But I didn’t think I could lose to just a doll."
That night, Li Zhiyuan was just one step away from fully controlling Qiu Minmin, but the consciousness within her was exceptionally tenacious, fiercely resisting him.
But a doll is an inanimate object, where would the resisting consciousness co from?
So, what was controlling Qiu Minmin had to be another presence.
Both Mao Zhushan and Mao Chang’an had practiced that evil book, and both used dolls to control corpses, which indicated that what was truly controlling Qiu Minmin was not the father and son.
Almost everyone in the house had died, using the thod of elimination, no matter how impossible it seed, that was only the final answer.
The one who had been controlling Qiu Minmin all along was Zhao Junfeng.
"Brother Binbin, do you rember the mory images we saw during Underworld?"
"I rember..."
"Did you notice that Wu Xinhui’s mory images were very misleading?"
"Ah, yes, Wu Xinhui clearly wasn’t the killer, yet that section made it seem like he was deliberately coming to kill and silence the witnesses."
"The mory images could have been adjusted further back, for example, Wu Xinhui and the others didn’t really see the killer, which could have easily brought the truth to light, yet that segnt was deliberately omitted.
Moreover, there were many doors, three were closed. One could be opened, revealing Qiu Minmin’s face; the other two couldn’t be opened. Since Qiu Minmin was there, Zhao Junfeng should have been as well, but Zhao Junfeng’s mory was closed."
"Then what about the other door?"
"I initially thought it was Mao Chang’an’s. After all, he wasn’t dead and was part of this setup, but now I think it might not be... It should be sothing more deeply rooted residing within Zhao Junfeng, like that book they spoke of."
"Can a book really do sothing like that?"
"So things are quite sinister, didn’t Run Sheng tell you? We buried a Copper Coin at a grave site in Shigang, even though I left ho for college, I didn’t retrieve it.
It’s not that I forgot, but I honestly don’t have the confidence to touch it now."
That item, if held wrongly, could cause a "Tai Sui" to grow on you, spreading like an infectious disease.
"So, looking at it now, Mao Chang’an isn’t the yellow sparrow either?"
"Yes, a mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. It’s a chain of predators."
"Brother Xiao Yuan, did you just deliberately go out to let them kill each other first?"
"What else? We’re here to clean up. The old man is the mastermind, and he needs to be dealt with. Since it was proven that it wasn’t the doll actually controlling Qiu Minmin but Zhao Junfeng, then Zhao Junfeng is also our enemy.
They’re all to be dealt with, can’t let the old man get killed by surprise, let them bite each other and bleed first, doesn’t that make it easier for us?"
Tan Wenbin said, "Brother, if you ever feel your mind is tired and heavy, I’ll help you carry it for a while."
Yin ng then asked, "What is the ultimate goal of all this?"
"The practice of the living and the dead together isn’t so easily achieved, according to Wei Zhengdao, it should be the prestigious sects that have the heritage to attempt to create such a thing.
Two corpse recovery divers, who just dock at the pier, how could they co up with such a grand setup?"
Yin ng looked sowhat saddened, her family also used to dock at the pier, but since her grandfather’s death, after she ca to Nantong, her Yin family no longer had even a pier.
"I suspect there is sothing wrong with the records in the book they acquired, likely similar to your Yin Family’s Twelve Skills, a simplified version that makes it seem easy to handle."
Yin ng felt a sinking feeling in her chest again.
"As for the ultimate goal, as ridiculous as it may seem, I speculate that it is inherently limited, and it wants to have a vessel while also regaining freedom."
Tan Wenbin said, "The old man seems to be in dire straits."
Inside the house, Mao Chang’an tried multiple tis to escape, but was always intercepted by Zhao Junfeng and Qiu Minmin, as if they were determined to keep him there at all costs.
"Zhao Junfeng, since you are conscious and not controlled, you should be aware that even if you kill , you will have to face those three once you get out!"
"Those three may have been here for a while now, they’re not leaving because they expect us to be mutually destructive so they can clean up the ss. If you want to leave with Qiu Minmin, I’m not stopping you. You both can leave now, and whether it’s causing harm to vent grievances or vanishing into the rivers and seas, it’s up to you!"
