Feng Ruoxing said in shock, "Didn't Cang Tianji just say..."

Ye Yang shook his head slightly, "Cang Tianji isn't one of us after all. The fact that Old Liu didn't leave us any hints this time, including passwords, shows that he's been on guard against something."

"Perhaps, if we unlock the secret of the Four Poles Formation, we can understand Old Liu's intention. Let's head into the village."

While Ye Yang and Feng Ruoxing were sneaking into Qingyan Village, Du Song had already broken through Cang Tianji's defenses and rushed into the courtyard.

I grabbed Cang Tianji with one hand and retreated rapidly. The Demon Tears in Cang Tianji's hand continuously touched the ground, leaving a series of red dots in our wake.

At first, I didn't know what Cang Tianji was doing. It wasn't until Du Song's toes stepped on the first red dot that I understood the purpose of those red dots.

Du Song was clearly prepared, but after landing, he inexplicably moved half a foot outwards. However, he seemed completely unaware of it. He stood up again and landed on the second red dot.

Du Song probably thought that I and Cang Tianji were close at hand, which is why he kept charging in, but in our eyes, his figure was constantly retreating.

Cang Tianji lowered her voice, "Go to the northwest corner, there's no one there."

I took Cang Tianji out of the courtyard over the northwest corner of the wall, and with a flash, jumped into the neighboring courtyard. As I landed, I heard the sound of the Reincarnation Division experts flying over.

Cang Tianji pointed to the corner of the wall, indicating that I should stand there.

After a moment's hesitation, I took Cang Tianji and hid in the corner, making sure to shield her behind me.

Unexpectedly, Cang Tianji came out from behind me, "Don't worry, so far, only Zero can see through my disguise."

"In a moment, I'll find a way to hold off the Fate Commanding Ghost God. Find his weakness as soon as possible."

As Cang Tianji was speaking, a large number of Reincarnation Division experts gathered outside the door. It was too late for me to break through.

I only heard Lü Jiantong shout, "They can't have gone far. Search in groups of five. Report immediately if you see Li Po."

Lü Jiantong was speaking from the doorway. As soon as he finished speaking, he kicked open the door and barged into the courtyard.

The expert behind Lü Jiantong instinctively turned to look at the corner of the wall. I subconsciously lowered my hand, preparing for close combat.

Unexpectedly, the other party only glanced at me before turning away and following Lü Jiantong towards the door.

As I watched Lü Jiantong lead three subordinates through the door, the door slowly closed inward, revealing a shoe tip at the edge of the door.

When that person subconsciously stopped, the Fate Commanding Ghost God leaned out half his body from behind the door and whispered in his ear, "You will die if you enter."

That person shuddered violently, and the foot that was on the door frame also retracted. He stood at the door like an idiot, afraid to move.

Lü Jiantong, who had already entered the house, seemed not to see what was happening outside, and turned his head to shout fiercely, "Why aren't you coming in?"

That person said with a crying voice, "Hall Master, that... that old man came out... He said I would die if I entered."

"Nonsense! Get in here!" Lü Jiantong appeared at the window with a frosty expression, "Get in here now!"

"I..." That person just said one word, and subconsciously looked up.

The old man didn't know when he had squatted on the roof ridge. He was standing on two tiles with the tips of his toes, grabbing his cane with one hand, leaning forward, and staring intently at the experts in the courtyard.

"He's on the roof..." The person on the ground took a few steps back with trembling legs and ran away.

"Enter and die!" The old man's sneer was like a ghost, chasing closely behind the Reincarnation Division expert.

The person was so frightened that he only wanted to escape, but he didn't notice that the direction of the courtyard gate had changed from inward to outward.

Careful people usually notice that city gates and palace gates, places that need to be defended, have gates that open from the outside in, and the direction of courtyard gates is also the same.

Some people have also asked, isn't it easier to attack the city if the door opens inward?

In fact, this is the wisdom of the ancients. It is truly dangerous for a door to open outward. Only when a door opens inward is it easier for the people inside to quickly close the door and keep the enemy out, and it is also more beneficial for the people inside to defend.

The Reincarnation Division disciple who was fleeing towards the gate happened to forget this point. Now he was in the courtyard, but passing through a reversed gate was not exiting but entering.

In the blink of an eye, that person rushed to the door, and the crossbeam on the door fell down.

The moment the solid wood crossbeam hit the ground, that person made a forward-leaning motion, exposing his neck under the door.

The wooden beam fell, but brought with it the sound of a long blade cutting through the air. In the next moment, the Reincarnation Division disciple's head and body were separated, and the head rolled down the gate into the street, while the headless corpse fell to the ground.

Lü Jiantong, who was standing in the house, was stunned. The old man squatting on the roof ridge hung upside down on the side of the door and shouted into the house, "You must die in the pot!"

In the Northeast, when building houses, the stove is usually only separated from the heated brick bed by a wall, so that the heated brick bed can be heated while cooking. At the same time, for the convenience of venting smoke, entering the house from the front door leads directly to the kitchen.

Wasn't the position where the old man was hanging down exactly facing the kitchen?
