When Chi Shuyan heard the last person’s words, she couldn’t maintain her calm and flushed red in embarrassment. Qi Zhenbai’s expression, on the other hand, lightened up and looked very good. The two looked at each other, and Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but look away first.
She very much suspected that these brats had gone crazy trying to snatch her talismans because something happened. She kept looking at the man next to her, but he was very calm and didn’t say a word.
Chi Shuyan was prepared to drop the subject and ask later. Fortunately, she had been drawing talismans these past few days and had drawn a lot for Qi Zhenbai’s sake.
Chi Shuyan was very generous for once, and immediately gave each of them an Exorcism Talisman and a Safety Talisman. Even the unconscious Tan Yecheng didn’t lose out. After all, she had given them to Yan Youwei for free earlier; it wouldn’t be good for her to collect money for these talismans after that.
After the Cheetahs Corps said goodbye to Qi Zhenbai and left, Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but ask, “What on earth did you encounter when you went out this time?”
Qi Zhenbai didn’t pull her into his arms in public, but just held his wife’s hand and told her about Nanping Mountain and the rotting corpse.
Qi Zhenbai narrowed his eyes. “Nanping Mountain is indeed very strange, but with the rotting corpse, it seems more like someone was deliberately controlling that thing and luring in people to be infected with corpse poison!”
The people who had been infected had probably all come from Nanping Mountain, and the source of the corpse poison was that rotting corpse.
Chi Shuyan wasn’t surprised, as she had already had an inkling. She just had the man tell her everything that happened at Nanping Mountain.
Qi Zhenbai recounted everything from beginning to end in great detail. He
lamented, “Wife, it was a good thing you gave us the talismans! Otherwise, it would have been hard for us to come back this time!”
“Wait, you said that Yang Mu and Tan Yecheng saw a person in black waving at them. You saw him too, but those two were possessed and you weren’t?” Chi Shuyan asked.
Qi Zhenbai nodded. Indeed, he seemed innately unafraid of ghosts and gods. He continued, “That thing had no face!”
Chi Shuyan nodded and wondered in her heart if Azancheng had set up some sort of illusion or if the mountain itself was very strange.
She then heard the man say that Nanping Mountain was indeed strange. After thinking about it for a while, she was more inclined to believe that there was indeed something strange about Nanping Mountain, which was why Azancheng
had chosen that place. As for the matter of the low-level living dead, she didn’t have to think much to know that it was Azancheng’s doing, with the aim of covering up for him and Shen Rongyin.
Hearing that the man had already burned the low-level living dead and the man poisoned by the corpse, which could be considered as eliminating the source, Chi Shuyan heaved a sigh of relief. “Whether or not Azancheng had anything to do with that place, it’s best not to go there in the future! From what you said, there are probably other dirty things there. Your luck this time was pretty good!” After a pause, Chi Shuyan continued, “I’ll tell my dad about this later and have him go on patrol in the next few days. If nothing else happens, the matter should be resolved!”
Qi Zhenbai pursed his lips and nodded.
At that moment, a familiar panicked and terrified voice rang out not far away. Who
else could it be but Third Brother Wei? “Yan Yan, something happened to my mother! Yan Yan, something happened to my mother!” Wei Man’s voice was shaky and his face was pale with fear..
