Extreme Demon

squeak

Lu Sheng closed the wooden window and looked back at the room.

He took off his coat and put it on the clothes rack behind the door.

Then he opened the closet and found several dusty women's clothes worn by Sister Yu. After closing the cabinet door, Lu Sheng looked at the dressing table again.

There is no pattern on the simple dressing table, just a bronze mirror placed in the center.

A little pink powder was sprinkled in front of the bronze mirror. Lu Sheng stretched out his hand to dip it in and brought it to his nose to smell it.

"Powder used by ordinary women."

Lu Sheng suddenly frowned.

"Sister Yu, I remember she is not someone who likes to use perfume."

call.

Suddenly a gust of cold wind blew by, and the candle light suddenly swayed.

Lu Sheng quickly held the knife and looked around the room.

Chi.

Through the gap where the door was not closed, a glimpse of white clothes flashed past.

Lu Sheng walked over quickly.

"I remember I closed the door after I came in."

He touched the wooden bolt, which still had an open padlock.

He opened the door and walked out to the corridor to take a look.

The corridor was empty and deserted.

A stream of cool air keeps pouring in here.

Lu Sheng coldly scanned it and found nothing wrong.

Then he returned to the room.

The door closed with a click.

He walked to the table and sat down. He put down the knife and pressed it on the table, holding it with his hand.

He just sat there, slowly waiting for the so-called woman to cry.

The lights are like beans.

Time passes slowly.

With the support of Jade Crane Skill, Lu Sheng didn't feel sleepy at all. He sat at the table in high spirits, waiting for the cry.

Later, when nothing happened, he used his mind to speed up the operation of the Jade Crane Technique.

Anyway, this qi-preserving skill is too stable, even if he wants to distract his qi, there is nothing he can do.

A lot of time passed without realizing it.

Until there was a clear rooster crow outside the window, and the originally dark window gradually turned into a faint white.

Lu Shengcai suddenly realized that he had been sitting like this all night.

"Where's the woman crying? There was nothing all night."

He could also see the faint light of dawn outside through the window.

Holding the knife, Lu Sheng stood up and moved his body.

Opening the door and walking out, some light came in from the corridor. He came to the courtyard of the Lotus House. The dishes, bowls and chopsticks he had eaten yesterday were still in the same place.

Human voices could be heard faintly outside the yard.

Lu Sheng walked over and opened the door forcefully.

Dad, Lu Quan'an, Lu Yingying, Lu Yiyi, and a group of relatives at home have been waiting outside the door for a long time.

Seeing the door open, everyone was startled and took a step back.

Seeing Lu Sheng, Lu Quan'an hurried forward.

"Xiao Sheng! Are you okay!?"

His face was full of concern.

Lu Sheng was confused when he saw that everyone was still holding torches in their hands, and when some guards arrived with unsheathed swords in their hands.

"What's wrong? What happened?" he asked loudly.

Lu Quan'an sighed.

"Another person went missing at home last night."

"Um???"

Lu Sheng's eyes widened immediately.

The second mother, Liu Cuiyu, stepped forward and explained the matter.

It turned out that during Lu Sheng's vigil, other people came around and indeed no more women were heard crying.

Everything was normal at the beginning. The guards were patrolling, and many people were in their rooms in the mansion. They said they were resting, but in fact most of them couldn't sleep and were waiting for the results.

But something happened later.

"Bajun said he was going to the hut, but he never came back."

A fat woman held a handkerchief and cried.

This woman is the sister of Lu Sheng's biological mother, Sun Yan, who is also his aunt, Sun Zi Ning.

The missing person this time was Lu Sheng's cousin Sun Bajun.

Lu Sheng and Sun Bajun were not familiar with each other. This kid liked gambling and was lazy and lazy. He couldn't stand it and would often scold him.

That kid didn't like him because of this, so he always took a detour when meeting him.

Unexpectedly, it was him who disappeared this time.

Lu Sheng frowned tightly.

"I didn't sleep all night. I sat in the room and listened to the noise. I didn't hear any woman crying."

When everyone heard this, their hearts suddenly became cold.

"What's going on!"

My aunt grandson Ning burst into tears.

"Zining, don't worry, there must be a way." Erniang pulled her over to comfort her.

"Go to the lobby first, let's discuss the countermeasures."

Lu Quan'an sighed.

The group of people had no choice but to leave here first.

Lu Quan'an called Lu Sheng, a few of his immediate relatives, and his uncle over.

The lobby door was closed, several people were sitting on their seats, and the atmosphere was dull.

Dabolu Anping is a serious middle-aged man with thick eyebrows, big eyes and a Chinese character face.

He wore half-length silver scale armor that was common in the Song Dynasty, and carried an accessory scimitar at his waist. He sat next to Lu Quan'an with a solemn expression.

"The question now is whether the power of the Yamen should be involved." The uncle said slowly. "If we still can't find the source, I'm afraid we will have to resort to external help later."

"It's easy to invite God, but it's hard to send God away." Lu Quan'an sighed. He had sighed countless times in a day.

In the past few days, his mind and body were haggard, and he was aging very quickly.

Lu Sheng sat in the next seat and remained silent.

Lu Quanan glanced at his son.

"Xiao Sheng, do you have anything to say? You are the future helmsman of the Lu family, and this family business will all be yours from now on. Do you know how to solve this current predicament?"

Lu Sheng closed his eyes, opened them again, and was about to speak back.

"It's not good, it's not good!"

Suddenly there was a small cry outside the door.

"Eldest Young Master! Brother Sheng! The people in the mansion want to run away!"

Lu Sheng immediately stood up, strode over to open the door, and saw Xiaoqiao waiting at the door with a red face.

"Sir, another person in the mansion is missing. Wang Chong, the head guard, secretly ran away with many people! I heard the message from the sisters, so I ran over to inform you."

"Ran?"

Lu Sheng opened his eyes.

He guessed that fleeing might occur due to the spread of panic, but he didn't expect it to happen so early.

"Where is Wang Chong now?"

"I don't know. We only found out after they ran away. Now Zhao Fanghu and the others are also gathering together in the courtyard. I'm afraid they want to run away too."

Xiaoqiao said hurriedly.

Zhao Fanghu is also another person who takes the lead among the bodyguards.

"How many people did they get together?"

Lu Quan'an asked quickly.

"I don't know, but there are so many people!" Xiaoqiao quickly replied.

"I gonna go see!"

Lu Sheng's face darkened and he strode towards the big courtyard.

Lu Quan'an and Uncle Lu Anping also followed closely with gloomy faces.

Several people quickly came to the compound.

More than twenty people have gathered in the courtyard, most of them are guards and servants, and there are also a few maids.

Everyone's faces were filled with fear and anxiety.

Some people have packed their luggage and are ready to leave Lu Mansion at any time.

As soon as they saw Lu Sheng and others arriving, the originally noisy atmosphere became slightly quieter.

"Who wants to leave?"

Lu Sheng walked up to the crowd and asked with a cold face.

"We all want to leave!"

A guard man stood up, and it was Zhao Fanghu, with a trace of fear on his face.

"My eldest son, we are human beings and we are also fate. The trouble the Lu family has now is not man-made at all, but a female ghost!"

He opened his eyes wide, full of fear.

"absurd!"

Lu Sheng interrupted him abruptly, his voice stern.

"Who gave you the courage to confuse people with your lies?"

"But I clearly saw it! That Bai Ying! Don't you Lu family want to drag all of us to accompany you?"

puff!

Blood splattered all over the floor.

The guard's head flew up out of thin air, rolled hard to the ground, and hit the feet of a maid carrying a baggage.

"Anyone who dares to confuse the public with monstrous words will die!!!"

Lu Sheng roared sharply, holding the knife and staring at the frightened people in front of him.

Plop.

Only then did the guard's headless body fall to the ground.

ah! ! !

The maid screamed.

"Shut up!"

There was a fierceness about Lu Sheng. With a glance, the screaming woman was so frightened that she covered her mouth and began to cry softly.

None of the guards and servants had ever seen such a tragic and bloody scene.

Everyone was so frightened that they were trembling all over and their faces were pale, but they did not dare to make a sound.

"Get everyone back here. If you dare to cause trouble again, I'll kill you!"

Lu Sheng said sharply.

There was deep fear in everyone's eyes.

Forced by Lu Sheng's power, they finally remembered that this young master was a ruthless person who had killed several wanted criminals by himself.

Suddenly everyone dispersed as if fleeing for safety.

The body of the guard who fell on the ground was also picked up by the guards who had not caused trouble before.

These servants, guards and maids all signed a contract of prostitution before entering the house.

Just leave if you want, do you really think that the Lu family is a kind-hearted person?

After everyone had left, Lu Sheng turned around and saw Lu Quan'an and his uncle Lu Anping staring at him with surprised and complicated expressions.

"To fight violence with violence is just a temporary measure." The uncle shook his head.

"Just calm down for a short time. If this matter can't be solved in a short time, then our Lu family will have to run away."

Lu Sheng said calmly.

"It seems that we really have to go to the Yamen for help this time." Lu Quan'an sighed. "Fortunately, Xiaosheng is here this time."

Lu Sheng's decisive handling allowed him to see his son's responsible and strategic side, and he felt quite pleased.

Lu Sheng said solemnly.

"Tonight, I'm keeping watch again, and I want to see what kind of thing dares to cause trouble in my house!

Don't worry, father. Although I didn't find anything last night, I already noticed some clues. "

"Is this true?" Lu Quan'an perked up.

"Absolutely true!"

"Do you need me to send troops here?"

The uncle said seriously.

"Don't act rashly now. I'm afraid that if there are too many people, it will be a drag. No one knows what these ghosts are capable of. If there are too many people, they will block the way. They can be transferred to guard outside the house."

Lu Sheng shook his head.

"Yes, Xiao Sheng, this time it all depends on you!" The uncle nodded and reached out to pat Lu Sheng on the shoulder.

Although he is the deputy commander, he is not a martial artist. In addition, the military attache of the Song Dynasty has not fought in a war for many years.

In fact, speaking of it, his official position was obtained through tests on military strategy and examination papers. It has nothing to do with fighting.

The Song Dynasty's emphasis on literature over martial arts has been a bad habit for many years. So at this time, the backbone of the family is Lu Sheng.

"Don't worry." Lu Sheng recalled the glimpse of white clothes he saw, and had a vague premonition in his heart.

If we can catch the man in white clothes, we may be able to solve the case of missing people.
