Chapter 15

At night, at the Chen family ancestral graves, a man accompanied by several wooden puppets carried a corpse-oil lantern emitting a faint green light and arrived before Chen Xiuniang's grave.

"Click, click, click."

Accompanied by these wooden puppets working around the grave, the grave was soon dug open.

The white coffin remained, and it could be seen that it had not been opened by anyone.

But the man's complexion at this moment was as iron-blue as the green lantern in his hand.

"Who on earth moved my setup!?"

"Bang~"

Accompanied by his angry strike, Chen Xiuniang's coffin was shattered, revealing the fact that it was empty inside.

"Find the person for me!"

"Click, click, click."

Following his order, the wooden puppets quickly began to act, and soon they vanished into the night.

On the other side, Lin Feng had arrived in Luohe City once again.

During the day, he had wanted to find the female lead actress who was the Play Ghost's old flame, but because the timing was wrong, he hadn't found her.

So, after dark, he came again. This was definitely not because he wanted to visit a brothel to see the world!

"This young brother, if you have taken a fancy to any young lady, just say the word, won't you?"

In the Yihong Pavilion on the pleasure quarters street of Luohe City, the procuress, who still retained her charm, saw that Lin Feng had not responded for a long time and began to ask him impatiently.

"Cough, cough. Do you have any young ladies here who can sing opera, preferably ones who were sent over a few days ago?"

Lin Feng withdrew his scrutinizing gaze from the gorgeously dressed young ladies before him and asked the procuress this.

"You want a young lady who can sing opera?"

The procuress was a bit confused by Lin Feng's request, although the so-called brothel was also a comprehensive entertainment venue.

Coming here to find a young lady was just one kind of pleasure; many people also came here to listen to music, meet guests, drink wine, and so on to find amusement.

It was just that the request for opera singing was indeed difficult for these non-professional young ladies.

"That's right. Hmm, this young lady looks roughly like this."

Lin Feng took a portrait out of his bosom; this was something he had drawn during the day when he had nothing to do.

"No, we don't have such a young lady here at Yihong Pavilion!"

Seeing the person in the portrait, the procuress's expression changed slightly, then returned to normal, and she then denied it nonchalantly.

"Oh, alright then, I'll go ask elsewhere."

However, Lin Feng's current discernment was not something an ordinary person could compare to, and he naturally discovered that the procuress's expression was somewhat abnormal.

But he did not expose her on the spot; after smiling, he turned and left.

After he left, the procuress's expression changed. After dispersing the girls she had called over, she walked toward the backyard of Yihong Pavilion on her own.

At this time, Lin Feng had already arrived on the roof of the building. At this moment, his theatrical makeup and costume emerged one after another.

Since he was going to save someone, he naturally could not use his true face. Of course, he had also undergone a disguise when he was scouting for information earlier, and even the clothes on his body were things he had swiped from an unlucky patron.

"That procuress clearly saw this female lead actress earlier. Heh heh, does she really think I don't understand?"

Lin Feng's gaze swept over the relatively quiet backyard of Yihong Pavilion; this place was divided into multiple small courtyards, which was different from the main hall in the front.

Soon, Lin Feng noticed the movements of the hurried procuress, and then followed silently.

"Knock, knock."

"Come in."

The procuress arrived in front of a room without lights and knocked on the door, and without waiting for a response from inside, she said in a low voice.

"My lord, someone just came to inquire about that female lead actress!"

"Who?"

"I haven't seen them before; it might be someone still alive from that opera troupe."

"Don't worry about it, let him come!"

"Yes!"

Afterward, the procuress left, and Lin Feng appeared in front of the door. At the same time, the Tou Gui also emerged by his side.

Immediately following, scarlet thin threads in the Tou Gui's hands directly pierced through the door crack and spread into the room.

"Ah!"

Suddenly, a scream rang out, and Lin Feng pushed the door open and entered the room.

Only then did he see the situation inside the room: the blood threads released by the Tou Gui filled the entire room, and a man with a cold face was tied up like a rice dumpling by the blood-colored thin threads.

"It's you? No, that's not right! You should be dead!"

"A ghost! You've become a ghost?"

But as the Xi Gui appeared, the originally angry expression of the cold-faced man suddenly turned into terror.

"Ah~ Heh heh~"

Unfortunately, Lin Feng did not let him talk nonsense at all. The blood-colored thin threads in the Tou Gui's hands wriggled again, and this time they pierced directly into his body.

Subsequently, this person lost control of his body, and Lin Feng approached him under his gaze full of terror.

"No, it wasn't me, it was the Third Young Master, the Third Young Master did it!"

"Your woman is still here! She's in the cellar! The Third Young Master is there too!"

"..."

The cold, gloomy aura emitted by the Xi Gui was simply not something a living person could emit, which directly made him terrified and blurt out some intelligence.

"Crack."

However, his head then twisted, his neck bone snapped directly, and the whole person completely lost all signs of life.

Lin Feng grabbed his corpse and continued walking into the house; soon, he discovered a cellar entrance inside.

"Ah~ Spare me! Spare me! I beg you!"

At the same time, a painful and hoarse voice reached Lin Feng's ears. After Lin Feng entered the cellar, he saw the unbearable scene inside.

"You dog, who came to disturb my refined interest?"

The Third Young Master of the Wang family, who was crazily torturing the woman beneath him, heard the movement behind him and immediately turned his head, staring at Lin Feng with scarlet eyes.

However, when he saw who had come, his whole body shook, and then blue-black tattoos immediately emerged on his skin.

But Lin Feng, who was clearly prepared, was faster. A Ruyi Golden Cudgel in his hand formed instantly, then grew rapidly and pierced through his body directly.

At the same time, the Tou Gui also silently arrived behind him, and scarlet thin threads directly pierced through the Third Young Master of the Wang family's body.

"Heh heh, you're going to die, you're all going to die!"

But strangely, after the Third Young Master of the Wang family's body was pierced, not only did it not bleed, but the terrifying tattoo on his body became even more lifelike.

The tattoo on his body looked like a terrifying evil ghost, with a green face and fangs, holding a spiked club, and gnawing on a bloody human head in its mouth.

As Lin Feng acted, this terrifying tattoo began to break free from his skin, and its terrifying big mouth bit directly onto the Ruyi Golden Cudgel that Lin Feng had transformed using the Xi Gui's ability.

It swung the spiked club in its hand, wanting to smash it toward the Tou Gui on the other side, its eyes like green lanterns, releasing a terrifying light with a hint of pressure.

"Big! Big! Make it big for me!"

"Heh heh, you little ghost, you still dare to be presumptuous in front of Old Sun!"

However, the Ruyi Golden Cudgel immediately grew rapidly, and at the same time, the Tou Gui exerted force together, and the body of the Third Young Master of the Wang family, already pierced by blood threads, was instantly torn apart.

"Roar!"

At the last moment, half of the body of that tattooed evil ghost still hadn't broken free from the body of the Third Young Master of the Wang family.

It could only be completely covered and suppressed by the blood released by the Tou Gui after a roar.

And the corpse of the Third Young Master of the Wang family also rotted and stank at this moment, looking as if it had been dead for a long time.
