Because this house was designed with a patio, when Butler Yang saw the snow falling, he immediately said, “Madam, it’s really snowing outside.”
Tang Li and Qi Yihan also looked at the snow outside.
After a few seconds, Tang Li stood up and walked out of the door to stand under the eaves.
Qi Yihan and Butler Yang immediately followed.
Tang Li reached out to catch the snow. When the snow was in her hand, it turned red like blood.
Qi Yihan subconsciously pulled her hand back and quickly wiped the red off her hand with his sleeve. He asked worriedly, “Are you alright?”
Tang Li looked at the man who was worried about her and smiled. “Don’t worry, this situation is caused by the heavy evil spirit. However, I finally know why the people here are so short-lived.”
Qi Yihan looked up at her. “Is it because of this snow?”
“Yeah.�
Tang Li extended her finger and quickly drew in the air. When she finished drawing a talisman, a light flashed and the falling snow turned into wisps of black smoke.
Tang Li said to the two of them, “I’m going out to take a look. The masters should be on their way to find me. Don’t come out.”
With that, she took out another talisman. After quickly covering the entire building, she walked out.
Qi Yihan and Butler Yang stood under the eaves and watched Tang Li walk out alone.
When she opened the door, it was already white outside.
Butler Yang called out, “Master, what should we do?”
Qi Yihan turned around and walked towards the living room. As he walked, he said, “We can’t help Li much now. Just wait for her.”
Butler Yang followed him in.
Not long after the two of them sat down, a woman’s cry suddenly came from outside.
Qi Yihan sat there with a cold aura. He closed his eyes and wondered how Tang Li was doing.
At this moment, someone suddenly knocked on the door repeatedly.
Butler Yang stood up.
Qi Yihan suddenly opened his eyes and ordered, “Sit down.”
Butler Yang was stunned and turned to look at Qi Yihan.
With a pair of cold eyes, Qi Yihan said, “Don’t forget what they said. Don’t get curious at night.”
Only then did Butler Yang sit down.
Outside the house.
After Tang Li went out, she quickly walked into the alley.
Wherever she went, the snowflakes floated to the side.
She walked for a few minutes before seeing the masters standing in an open space.
At this moment, there were several talismans flying around them. The talismans surrounded them and protected them, so that the snowflakes couldn’t land on them.
When they saw Tang Li walking over, Xu Guanhai quickly shouted at her, “Master Tang, hurry up and go to the ancestral hall. We found someone just now. She ran towards the ancestral hall.”
Tang Li nodded and strode towards the Qian family’s ancestral hall.
Soon, her figure disappeared in front of the masters.
The Qian family’s ancestral hall was on the west side of the town. Behind it was a large pond.
In front of the ancestral hall, there was a big memorial archway.
Tang Li stood in front of the memorial archway and frowned at the scene in front of her.
The snow stopped at the memorial archway.
There were no street lamps on the road from the memorial archway to the ancestral hall. It was dark like a black hole, giving off a cold feeling.
Tang Li stood there for a while before reaching out her hand. Her fingers quickly swiped in the air.
Soon, a transparent talisman quickly expanded in front of her and finally enveloped the entire memorial archway and the ancestral hall.
Then, the scene of a woman being beaten up by everyone appeared in front of her.
These people were all wearing ancient clothes.
The woman who was beaten looked to be in her teens. She was skinny and was lying on the ground, covered in blood.
She cried and crawled over. “I didn’t seduce him. I didn’t seduce him.”
However, the people who hit her did not listen at all. Everyone’s faces were cold.
Some people threw stones at her, while others used sticks.
The stick and stone hit her body, head, and face.
Her cries slowly weakened, and her eyes were filled with bone-chilling hatred.
The scene then changed again to another ear where another woman was beaten up under the same memorial archway.
Finally, it came to the recent era.
A woman with disheveled hair was crawling in the middle of the memorial arch. Standing on both sides were a group of men and women with twisted expressions.
This woman was different from other women. There was no hatred or fear in her eyes. There was nothing. She was empty, so empty that she was like a soulless puppet.
However, the people who hit her did not care about that at all. They spat, threw stones, and used sticks.
In the end, the woman fainted. At this moment, the patriarch’s wife, who looked much younger than now, walked out of the crowd. Her expression was twisted as she spat at her in disgust and scolded, “Pfft! Shameless b*tch. You even dare to seduce your father-in-law. This kind of promiscuous woman should be drowned.”
Then, the others shouted, “Drawn her in the pond.”
However, the young woman was not drowned in the end and was carried back.
The scene changed. Day turned into night.
The woman was lying in a coffin that could accommodate two people.
Beside her was a pale man.
The man was obviously dead, but his body was not rotten.
At this moment, the man’s body suddenly moved. He laid on top of the woman and bit her neck with his sharp teeth. When the woman’s blood flowed out, the man’s face started to turn red.
Even in her coma, the woman frowned in pain.
At this point, Tang Li waved her hand, and all the images disappeared.
At this moment, footsteps came from behind.
The footsteps quickly approached, followed by the voices of the masters.
“Master Tang, did you see anything?”
“Master Tang, is there something inside?”
“Master Tang…”
Tang Li suddenly turned to look at them.
They subconsciously shut up.
Tang Li pointed at the memorial archway and said, “If I’m not wrong, this is a chastity memorial archway.”
When the masters heard this, they were stunned at the same time. Then, Xuan Yi frowned and said, “This kind of chastity memorial archway was quite common in the old days. To put it nicely, it’s a chastity memorial archway for chaste women, but it was also a shackle that restrained women. Once a woman got married, even if her husband was a pervert or an evil person, she had to stay with him for the rest of her life. As long as she had any other thoughts, she would be dragged here to be beaten and scolded by the entire family.”
Hearing that, Xu Guanhai made a guess, “Could the resentment and evil spirit in this town be caused by this chastity memorial archway?”
Tang Li, “We’ll know once we saw the patriarch’s son.”
Looking at the scene just now, she suddenly had a guess. Now, she only needed to confirm this guess to know the result.
