Liaozhai Great Sage

"Meow~!" The black cat hugged his feet and did not let go.

"You black cat, why are you so timid? You became so frightened after just a shock, and you still expect you to take care of the nursing home." Li Xiuyuan grabbed the back of its neck and lifted it up.

The black cat covered its eyes, looking ashamed.

"Stop hugging me, stay here by yourself, I really can't play with Xiaobai." Li Xiuyuan stuffed the black cat into Du Chunhua's hands.

Du Chunhua hugged the black cat and said, "Master, be careful when you go out, and come back earlier."

"Well, don't worry, nothing will happen." Li Xiuyuan nodded and strode away.

When he walked to the lobby, he saw his father Li Dafu walking out in surprise, and obviously felt the shock before that.

"Is my son safe?" Li Dafu said.

"The baby is fine, is the mother okay?" Li Xiuyuan asked.

"They are all fine, what happened to the sudden shock just now? Did the earth dragon turn over?" Li Dafu asked curiously.

Li Xiuyuan said: "I don't know, I only know that there is a crack in one place, it should not be the earth dragon turning over."

"Master, master, it's not good, something happened." At this moment, Butler Li hurried over from outside the house, looking anxious, as if something serious had happened.

Chapter 256

"An accident? What happened?" Li Dafu immediately asked nervously.

Butler Li came here in such a hurry, if something happened, it must be quite serious, if it was a trivial matter, Butler Li would not come to report it in person.

"Back to the master, didn't the master order to build a granary a few days ago?" Li Butler said: "But not long after the ground was broken today, something happened. I heard that people were killed at the place where the construction was started. The master still Hurry up and take a look, the specific old slave also doesn’t know very clearly, I’d better listen to the foreman running over to tell me.”

"There is such a thing?" Li Dafu suddenly said in shock: "Quick, my son will come with my father to have a look."

A human life is a very important event no matter what era it is.

The Li family is a family of merchants, so they care more about this.

Outside the city of Guobei County, there is a small mound not far away. Because of the high terrain here, it was selected as one of the locations where the Li family built a granary.

Originally, the ground-breaking construction started today, but not long after the construction, the small hill suddenly cracked open, as if an earthquake had occurred, the frightened workers were terrified, screaming and fleeing, and accompanied by the previous violent sound With the shaking, huge gaps were opened on the ground of the hill, and each gap was four or five feet wide, enough to fit a person.

And because of the appearance of this huge ground seam, several of the workers accidentally fell into the ground seam.

The fissure in the ground is extremely deep, and I don't know where it leads. I only know that if people stand next to it, they can feel a cool cold wind blowing out, whining.

It seems that there seems to be a hole in the sky.

"Was that shock coming from here?" At this moment, Li Dafu, Li Xiuyuan and some guards from the Li family rushed over.

When everyone came here, they were surprised when they saw the huge cracks on the ground.

But what is even more surprising is the peculiarity of this crack.

The depth is bottomless, it doesn't look like it was shaken by an earthquake, but it seems to exist naturally.

"How many people fell?" Li Dafu hurriedly asked the foreman.

The foreman replied: "Four workers fell into the cracks in the ground."

"How could such a thing happen?" Li Xiuyuan said; "Did you touch something that shouldn't be touched?"

This world is full of mysteries. It is not uncommon for ordinary people to fall into taboos and cause inexplicable disasters if they are not careful.

The foreman looked a little evasively and said, "A few workers dug up a big vat while digging the soil. Those workers may have suspected that there was a treasure hidden in it, so they took a hoe and broke a piece of the vat body. Immediately there was a loud bang, and then the ground shook, and then cracks appeared on the ground, and they fell into the cracks."

"Where is the tank?" Li Xiuyuan asked.

"It's in the raised place in front." The foreman pointed to a place where the ground was broken.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Father, my son, go and have a look, maybe some evil thing is causing trouble again."

"My son, don't be reckless. Since this place is inauspicious, we might as well choose another piece of land. Let's leave this place alone, and don't care if there are any evil or not." Li Dafu said.

A piece of wasteland is a big deal, it is not a very important thing.

On the contrary, it would be a very bad thing if something evil was really provoked because of this matter.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Father, I don't know if there is something evil here, but since there is such a commotion, if you don't check it out, it may happen again. Now that you have found it, you can't ignore it."

"You can send guards, and the servants will go over and investigate, my son doesn't need to do it himself." Li Dafu said, and motioned to the guards around him after speaking.

The guard nodded and Dang even wanted to go to investigate.

However, Li Xiuyuan waved his hand to stop it: "If there is something evil, the guards will go over to investigate, I'm afraid it will be very dangerous. How about this, the child will go with the guards, so that we can have someone to take care of us."

He is not close to ghosts and gods, so naturally he is not afraid of any evil things.

After finishing speaking, without waiting for his father's consent, he waved his hand to signal five or six guards, and then walked towards the small raised mound.

"My son, be careful." Li Dafu hurriedly called out.

"Eldest young master, just leave this matter to the younger one and others, and you can just rest here." A guard said.

Li Xiuyuan said: "This time the commotion is a bit big, I'm afraid it's something serious, it's better to go and have a look, otherwise I won't be at ease."

When everyone walked over, they found that there was indeed a large vat in the small raised mound.

The big vat looks very old, with a history of many years, and the style is a bit quaint, not modern goods.

So it can be seen that this big tank has a history of at least several hundred years, and maybe even farther.

The big vat was placed upside down, and there was a gap in the body of the vat, and there were hoes piled up next to it, which were broken by a hoe.

"Break that vat and see what's in it," Li Xiuyuan said.

To be on the safe side, he untied the jade belt around his waist and let the aura cover it. If there is really a demon, then he can also block the demon's morality and magic power, making it lose the ability to do evil. If there is an evil spirit hiding in the tank If it is, then it can be expelled in time to ensure that the people in the past will no longer have any life-threatening dangers.

The guard responded, pulled out his waist knife and walked over cautiously.

I slashed several times on the body of the vat, and with a final bang, the large vat immediately shattered into pieces.

However, the scene inside the tank surprised Li Xiuyuan and the guards.

There is actually a person sitting cross-legged in the tank, an old man wearing gorgeous clothes, hair hanging down, and covered in dust. The old man looks gray-haired, but in fact he looks only 40 to [-] years old, not particularly old kind of.

In addition, the man's hands were hanging on his legs, with long nails on them, as if they hadn't been trimmed for many years, they were all rolled up.

"Young master, it's a dead body." The guard said after recovering his composure after being frightened.
