Chapter 117 The Well

When the burning incense in the room was about two inches from being finished, Wei Junyong moved. He should have regained consciousness, but he didn't open his eyes.

He was deliberately keeping them closed!

I said softly, "Do you think Wei Junyong really got into trouble, or was this Bai Hanfei's deliberate arrangement?"

Wei Junyong's face twitched a couple of times, clearly frightened by my words.

Feng Ruoxing whispered, "I think Wei Junyong really encountered trouble, but his grandfather telling him to find Butcher Wang is false."

"He's just a kid who hasn't practiced any martial arts. The fact that he could walk to the Wang residence in two days suggests the Wei family doesn't live too far away."

"Even if the Art World Notary doesn't investigate, we'll gather our own intelligence. Whether the Wei family is in trouble can withstand scrutiny. The Wei family's situation is definitely real. However, I think Old Man Wei didn't necessarily tell him to find Butcher Wang. So, I'm saying only half of it is true."

"I think Bai Hanfei must have met Wei Junyong along the way and tricked him into coming here. Otherwise, Wei Junyong wouldn't have become a pawn in Bai Hanfei's game."

"The child is still too young!" I shook my head and said, "Bai Hanfei never intended to let this child live. When the evil entity chasing Wei Junyong didn't arrive, Bai Hanfei took action against the child himself."

"Wei Junyong's death seems to best serve Bai Hanfei's interests. But..." I paused and said, "I always feel that Bai Hanfei is actually following the Wei family's clues to find something?"

Ye Yang nodded and said, "When I was dispelling the curse for Wei Junyong, I did feel it. Two forces of karma were entangled with Wei Junyong, one from his bloodline, and the other from Bai Hanfei. Moreover, the two kinds of karma are still colliding, indicating that Bai Hanfei is indeed dealing with the Wei family's enemy."

Ye Yang changed the subject, "If we take action, perhaps Wei Junyong's grandfather still has a chance at life. Bai Hanfei, hehe..."

As Ye Yang was speaking, Butcher Wang's fingers suddenly twitched twice. I quickly stood up and leaned closer to her, "Sister, how are you?"

Butcher Wang let out a weak voice, "Home!" Then she went silent again.

Feng Ruoxing reached out and checked her pulse, "She's still alive. Didn't you already send her soul back? Why can't she wake up?"

I shook my head, "I only sent back one of her three souls. Her soul isn't complete, so she naturally can't wake up."

"I estimate that when Butcher Wang was attacked, the other party wanted to scatter her soul in one fell swoop. In a situation where Butcher Wang couldn't avoid the attack, she used a desperate tactic, scattering her own three souls."

I made a gesture of drawing a knife with my left hand, pointing it towards the palm of my right hand, "At that time, the opponent's attack was too strong. Butcher Wang didn't dare to take it head-on. After scattering her three souls to avoid the disaster, she immediately let the three souls escape separately."

"One of the souls came out to warn us. The other two souls are still in the Wang family mansion."

Feng Ruoxing said, "Are you saying that the ghost that appeared on the mountain path when the notary went up the mountain was Butcher Wang herself?"

"That's not right!" Feng Ruoxing immediately denied her own idea, "If that was Butcher Wang, she should have been helping you, not deliberately exposing herself, putting you in a dilemma."

I nodded, "So, there must be other ghosts inside the Wang family mansion."

"Like the guy with the stick that Ye Yang killed, he should have come in with the Wang family's coffin. The Bai family returned a total of five coffins. Now it seems that at least two of the coffins have a problem."

I paused and said, "Feng Ruoxing, you stay here and watch Wei Junyong and Butcher Wang."

"Leng Gou, go take a look at what those five coffins are all about."

"I'll go find Butcher Wang."

I looked at my watch as I spoke, "It's still two hours before dawn. Before dawn, not only is it time for us to fight back, but it's also time for those ghosts to attack us. Everyone be careful!"

Ye Yang and I stepped through the moon gate into the Wang family's backyard at the same time.

Ye Yang stopped, raised his hand, made a fist, and placed it in front of me. I inexplicably bumped my fist against his. Unexpectedly, Ye Yang rolled his Ye Family White Eyes, shook his head, and walked towards the left gate.

What did Ye Yang mean?

Wasn't he going to bump fists with me to cheer me on?

After looking at my fist, my eyes suddenly narrowed, and I quickly walked in the opposite direction of Ye Yang.

When I was looking at the Wang family map, I noticed that there was a well in the middle of the Wang family's inner courtyard. According to feng shui, the location of that well was a major taboo.

If the Wang family as a whole were compared to a treasure pot, then that well would be like drilling a hole in the very center of the treasure pot. Not only would it not gather wealth, but it would also leak the Wang family's luck.

The Tu Men Wang family was, after all, an Art World sect, and wouldn't make such a low-level mistake.

Therefore, that well was very likely the core of the Wang family's secrets. If Butcher Wang wanted to hide, she would definitely go to the safest place, which was also the most likely place for Butcher Wang to hide.
