Extreme Demon

Almost every morning when he woke up, Lu Sheng could feel that his muscles were getting stronger and his body was getting heavier.

The price is that every meal he eats is at least twice as much as before, and it's all big fish and meat, as well as expensive medicinal soup every day.

This food expense alone is enough to bankrupt an average person.

Lu Sheng did not delay, and walked all the way into the city, arriving at the gate of Lu Mansion with a familiar road.

As soon as the concierge guarding the door saw him, he immediately came over to greet him.

"The eldest son is back!"

"Yes." Lu Sheng responded casually and strode into the house.

The atmosphere in the house is a bit strange.

But when the servants passing by saw him coming back, they all came over to say hello.

"The eldest son is back!!"

someone shouted.

"The eldest son! The eldest son is back!!"

"It's the eldest son!"

The servants and maids ran out one after another. There was a hint of surprise on his face, as if a helpless person suddenly found a life-saving straw.

"Where's daddy?"

"The master of the house wants you to come over immediately."

A maid ran over and answered quickly.

"kindness."

Lu Sheng took off the knife and put it behind his back.

He rushed all the way towards the inner courtyard.

It was quiet in the inner courtyard, so quiet that it was a little strange, even a little deserted.

Some of the maids and servants were all in bad spirits, so they greeted him from a distance.

Those who were far away didn't notice, they were still talking and chatting to themselves.

There was a sound drifting in the wind from afar.

"Last night, that kind of woman crying appeared in Sister Yu's room again."

"I heard about it too. It seemed like it was coming from far away. A servant was passing by, but I didn't see anyone in the room at all, not even a shadow."

"Oh, stop talking, it's really scary."

"Is it some kind of female ghost?"

"Stop talking nonsense! Be careful of getting beaten."

When Lu Sheng passed the stone bridge with a knife on his back, he heard the servants and maids at home chatting.

From the chats of these people, the lotus room in the backyard where Sister Yu lives has become the biggest restricted area in Lu Mansion.

No one needed to remind him, and no one dared to approach.

He was silent for a moment, and based on the contents of the letter, his mood suddenly became heavier.

Finally, what he had been worried about happened.

This world is already full of crises. For all kinds of weird things. Ordinary people have no power to resist.

What he has been worried about is that one day everything that happened to the Xu family suddenly came to Lu Mansion.

Until then, what can he use to block it and what can he use to save himself.

What can you do to save your family in this life?

"Female ghost? I want to see what female ghost can stop my sword!" A fierce light flashed in his eyes, and Lu Sheng felt furious in his heart as he strode towards the inner courtyard lobby.

Isn't it just for this moment that he has been accumulating for so long?

Walking into the lobby of the inner courtyard, Lu Sheng immediately saw the haggard Lu Quan'an sitting on the main seat. There were two mothers and three mothers hurriedly arriving beside him.

The rest of the brothers, sisters, and cousins ​​were all there.

This is the first time for a large family to come together like this on a day that is not a holiday.

Everyone saw Lu Sheng, a tall man with a knife on his back, walking through the door.

Lu Quan'an also showed a hint of joy on his face. But immediately there was a hint of worry.

"Xiao Sheng, you. Oh, you shouldn't have come back."

"Dad, tell me, what happened? Sister Yu is dead?"

Lu Sheng didn't talk nonsense and went straight to the point.

He has been practicing sword practice every day recently, and with the circulation of black evil energy, there is still a trace of ferocious energy left in his body.

When everyone saw this, they remembered that Brother Sheng had killed two extremely vicious wanted criminals before. He was a ruthless character who could kill murderers.

Thinking of this, everyone's initial panic was relieved slightly.

"Let me tell you." Liu Cuiyu, the second mother, sighed.

Lu Sheng found a seat on the right side and sat down.

"Second mother, please tell me."

Liu Cuiyu thought for a while and sorted out her thoughts.

"This matter has to start with Sister Yu's sudden death a while ago."

She sighed again.

“That day, someone from Sister Yu’s family came to me and asked me if Sister Yu had returned, and I said she had returned long ago.

The man said that he had not been able to find anyone at home, so he came to the house to look for him. "

"I was also confused. I was about to send someone out to look for her when I immediately received news from the Yamen. Sister Yu died in an alley. It had been several days. Her body was hard."

"Later, I gave money as money for Sister Yu's funeral.

But only two days have passed since this incident, and another person has disappeared in the house. I sent people out to search, and found the body in the river outside another city. "

When Liu Cuiyu said this, her face was full of sadness.

"Since that day, one person has disappeared in the house every day. No matter how much I check, I can't find it! It's already the fifth day.

And every night, a woman's cry would be heard from the lotus house where Sister Yu used to live. If it was there or not, she would go in and look for it, but no one could be found.

There were originally five people living in that room, and now three of the five are missing."

When Lu Sheng heard this, his expression darkened.

"What did the people in the Yamen say?"

"What else can I say? I got nothing, and then I just found an excuse to leave."

Lu Chenxin couldn't help but interjected, his tone full of resentment.

"I asked your uncle to send soldiers to guard the night, but it was still useless. When there are many people, the sound will not appear. You can only hear it when there are fewer people." Lu Quan'an shook his head.

"Where's Qing Qing?" Lu Sheng suddenly realized that Lu Qing Qing was not there.

"She ran to the Zheng family alone. Something happened at the Zheng family too." Lu Quan'an said helplessly.

"Something happened to the Zheng family too?"

Lu Sheng's heart tightened.

"But it's not our kind of thing, but we encountered robbers and robbed their caravan on the way. That girl Qingqing didn't know where she got the clue. She suspected that the robbers were related to the Xu family tragedy, so she went out to investigate yesterday. He hasn’t come back yet.”

Second mother Liu Cuiyu replied.

Lu Sheng snorted coldly.

“This girl is becoming more and more disobedient.

In addition, even if this thing in the house is not a female ghost, a kung fu master with good Qing Kung Fu can still do such a thing!

Where is Uncle Zhao? How did he say? "

"Your Uncle Zhao and several uncles have been transferred to the Yamen to help out in a place outside the city. Speaking of which, they haven't come back yet." Lu Quan'an replied.

"In other words, that person dared to come to the house and play tricks while Uncle Zhao and the others were away?"

As soon as Lu Sheng opened his mouth, he characterized the matter as man-made, not some monster.

Regardless of whether this is the work of monsters or monsters, it can only be caused by man!

Otherwise, the huge Lu family might fall apart.

Lu Quan'an also immediately understood the truth and nodded in response.

"So to put it this way, it does sound very artificial."

"There are women crying in Sister Yu's lotus room at night, right? I'll stay in that room tonight. Let's see if anyone is missing."

Lu Sheng opened his mouth to make arrangements.

"But Xiaosheng."

Lu Quan'an wanted to say something else, but Lu Sheng raised his hand to stop him.

"Dad, don't worry, I know what's going on."

Lu Sheng said calmly.

No matter whether the other party is a ghost or a human, since it is afraid of crowds, it can always find a way to solve it.

If you can't even get over such a small hurdle in front of you, then if you encounter a ruthless character like the Xu family who destroys the whole family overnight if you don't agree, wouldn't you have no choice but to be slaughtered?

"Xiao Sheng. You must be careful."

Liu Cuiyu said worriedly.

The others looked relieved.

Since Brother Sheng, who had killed wanted criminals, said it was man-made, then it was probably man-made.

With Brother Sheng here, I believe that the bad guy will be caught.

Lu Chenxin, Lu Tianyang, Lu Yingying and others spread the news immediately after the meeting.

Soon, in the evening, everyone in the Lu family knew that the eldest son, Lu Sheng, was back, and he even judged that this was man-made!

We also decided to go to the Lotus Room for a vigil tonight.

As soon as the news came out, the entire mansion breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Mansion has been too tense these days. Like a taut string, it could break at any time.

For a while, everyone felt a lot safer.

Although the crisis has not yet been resolved, the previous panic atmosphere has eased a lot.

At least the eldest son Lu Sheng stood in front of him and moved into the Lotus Room himself. If something happens, the eldest son must be there to stand in front of him.

After asking in detail about the events before and after, Lu Sheng immediately asked someone to tidy up the bed furnishings in the Lotus Room, and he would move in tonight.

The others tried to persuade him for a while, but when they saw that he was unwavering, they had no choice but to give up.

Lu Sheng asked Xiaoqiao to return to his original bedroom. He picked up the knife alone and walked into the lotus room with a jar of medicinal tea.

The Lotus Room, the Lotus Leaf Room, and the Lotus Root Room are all places where the maids and servants of the mansion live. Close together.

Among them, the lotus room is located in the center.

Lu Sheng came to the lotus house with a knife in hand. There was no one in the courtyards on both sides. Apparently he was frightened away by the crying in the middle of the night.

He opened the door and saw that the inside was cleaned and the bed was made.

The food box is placed on the stone table in the small courtyard.

Other than that, there was no one inside.

There are still some pink traces on the off-white stone table, which seem to be left by the makeup powder used by women spilled on it.

Lu Sheng glanced at the bedroom.

The bedroom and the courtyard are like two square boxes connected together. The bedroom is divided into five single rooms, side by side. The door is the corridor, and the corridor leads to the courtyard. There is a well in the courtyard, and stone tables and benches are placed in the well. side.

Lu Sheng sat down by the well with great dignity, opened the dark red food box, took out the side dishes in piles, and set up a stone table.

Three dishes and one soup.

Add hot white rice.

Lu Sheng took his chopsticks and ate in big mouthfuls.

It took nearly half an hour to finish the meal. He ate all the food before stopping and burping.

It was getting late, so Lu Sheng lit candles and lanterns, illuminating both the small courtyard and Sister Yu's bedroom.

Five bedrooms are arranged side by side. Sister Yu's room is at the innermost. The light is very gloomy, and the sound from outside is very small when it reaches here.

Lu Sheng finished eating, walked through the corridor with a knife, and entered the room.

There was a black wooden bed, a square table, and three chairs in the room.

In addition, there is a wardrobe and a dressing table.

Behind the dressing table is the window. At this time, the wooden window is half open, revealing the dark alley outside.

The candle light shines down from the desk on the right side of the door, illuminating most of the room, but it makes the half-open wooden window even darker.

Lu Sheng walked over and looked out of the window.

The alley outside the wooden window happened to be facing a side entrance of Lu Mansion.

Looking out the window, you can clearly see a straight alley leading to a somewhat desolate white side door.
