The family is full of villains, and the little apprentice sister is going crazy!
Chapter 24 Everyone in that family died!
"My fellow immortals, please take a seat."
Mr. Zhou greeted the four people politely, his eyes full of fatigue.
"These are the spiritual herbs that the immortal wants. I have already ordered my servants to prepare them." After saying this, the servant came up with the spiritual herbs and handed them to Zhu Yunqing.
"I have heard the immortal's diagnosis from my daughter-in-law. As long as my son can be saved, I will offer him the cauldron of medicine with both hands." Mr. Zhou said excitedly, and even coughed at the end.
"There is one thing I will not hide from Master Zhou. Master Zhou must have been injured by a demon and bewitched by a magic spell, so he has been like this all the time."
"An immortal once said that my son was injured by a demon, but there is no way to cure it." Mr. Zhou did not hide anything and told the whole diagnosis.
In the afternoon, Zhu Yunqing had been refining pills.
The other three planned to go to the place where the young master of the Zhou family was injured. After all, it was their duty to eliminate demons and defend the way.
What happened a month ago is known to everyone in Half Moon City, and you can find out the location by asking anyone.

outside the city.
The three of them followed the route described by the people and walked all the way here.
"It should be nearby." Song Lanyue looked at the abandoned old house. The man said that he would know it when he saw an abandoned house. Ever since what happened to the Zhou family, no one dared to come here anymore, and the people who lived nearby also moved away.
Ye Jinse formed seals with her hands, trying to find some traces of evil spirit nearby.
Wen Jing turned around and was about to go into the old house, and wanted to take Song Lanyue with him.
She quickly shook her head and looked the old house up and down.
Generally speaking, according to the novels and movies she had seen, ghosts were most likely to appear in such remote old houses.
"Sixth Senior Brother, you go. I won't go. I'll wait for Senior Sister here." Song Lanyue's voice trembled a little.
She is really afraid of those things!
Wen Jing's mocking voice came: "Little Junior Sister, you are not afraid, are you?"
Song Lanyue wanted to refute, but forget it, Sixth Senior Brother, just laugh if you want to.
Seeing that she didn't say a word, Wen Jing quickly comforted her: "I'm here, don't be afraid."
Ye Jinse also walked up to the two of them at this time and said, "Let's go in and take a look." She checked the surroundings and didn't notice anything unusual.
Now Song Lanyue had to go in even if she didn’t want to, as she didn’t want to be alone.
"Crench."
After pushing open the door, they found that the environment inside was much better than the desolate outside. The three of them walked around and found that all the items in the house were intact.
It's just that no one has cleaned it for a long time, so there is a layer of dust on it.
"There is also a medicine cauldron here. It seems that an alchemist had lived in this house before." Ye Jinse found a medicine cauldron in a room.
Song Lanyue flipped through the books on the bookshelf, and they were indeed some books on pharmacology.
"Here!" Wen Jing's voice reached the two of them, and they immediately rushed over.
When the two arrived, they saw the furnishings in the room and realized that it was a woman's boudoir.
Song Lanyue wondered: "Could it be that the alchemist living in this house is a woman?"
"No, there is another room in the house over there. From what we can see, there should be a man and a woman living in this house." Wen Jing was investigating separately from the two of them and pointed in another direction.
Ye Jinse suggested: "Maybe we can start with this family and ask them if they have seen or know anything."
"Okay." The two agreed.
……
The three of them found the nearest restaurant and sat down. The waiter came forward to greet them enthusiastically.
After Wen Jing selected a few signature dishes, the waiter looked at the three of them with a smile and served them more attentively.
"Gentlemen, please let me know if you need anything."
Song Lanyue spoke up at this time, "I want to ask who lived in the deserted house over there before?"
When the waiter heard this, his smiling face immediately changed, "Why are you three asking about this? It's unlucky."
Song Lanyue immediately stuffed a gold leaf into Xiaoer's hand, her intention was obvious.
Seeing her generosity, the waiter lowered his voice and said, "There was a father and daughter living in that family, but they died before March."
died!
Several people were shocked when they heard this.
"Then how did this family die?" Song Lanyue continued to ask, and stuffed a few gold leaves into Xiaoer's hands.
"It's really infuriating to talk about this. The old father was an alchemist and had saved many people and gained some fame. Later, Jin Mantang bought his elixirs and sent them to an auction house. Who would have thought that his elixirs would kill people!"
"Then he was disposed of by the auction house. As for his daughter, she hanged herself a few days after her father's death."
After the waiter said this, the food was quickly served.
The three of them looked at each other, paid for their meal, and left the restaurant.
"Senior Sister, this matter is very strange. If there is a problem with the elixir, wouldn't the auction house check it in advance?" Song Lanyue touched his chin and thought.
"Looks like I have to go to the auction again."
*
The three big characters "Zhenbao Pavilion" catch your eye.
Many monks from Half Moon City gather in front of the Treasure Pavilion every day. Each of them will receive a number card before entering and use the number card to participate in the auction.
After the three got their number tags and walked into the building, they saw a completely different scene. There were seven floors in the building, and each floor had private rooms of different sizes. Only the distinguished guests of the Treasure Pavilion could be seated there, and everyone else could only sit in the lobby on the first floor.
Song Lanyue curled her lips and thought, isn’t this just a membership system?
Ordinary people are on the first floor, and members are in private rooms.
As they had just arrived, they could only stay in the lobby on the first floor.
The auction hasn't officially started yet, but the first floor is already packed with people.
"Three immortals, my lady invites you." Suddenly a maid appeared in front of the three people.
"I wonder who your wife is?"
"Just follow me, the three of you." The maid laughed and said kindly.
The maid took a few people up to the fourth floor, and then into a private room, where they saw someone waiting for the three of them.
Song Lanyue looked carefully at the person inside and unexpectedly it was the young lady of the Zhou family.
"If I had known that the three immortals were coming to the auction house, I would have prepared the best private rooms for your reception. It's a pity that you three arrived late and there are only a few private rooms left." The Zhou family's young lady sounded apologetic.
"Sorry to bother you, Madam Zhou. It was me who insisted on asking my senior brothers and sisters to bring me to the auction house. We didn't expect that this auction house was owned by the Zhou family."
Song Lanyue explained that if it wasn't for the fact that Fourth Senior Brother was able to save the Young Master of the Zhou family, Madam Zhou wouldn't have been so humble to them, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.
After hearing what she said, Madam Zhou explained, "This auction house is jointly owned by the four major families in Half Moon City. The Zhou family only owns a quarter, but they still have some say."
"My husband is seriously ill, my father is not in good health, and I have to take care of my mother's funeral myself. Now the Zhou family's assets will be managed by me temporarily."
Whenever she talked about this matter, the young lady of the Zhou family's eyes would turn red.
"I am indecent. If the three immortals have any instructions, please tell the maid."
Mrs. Zhou wiped her eyes quickly, left a few words and left.
