C839 Black Smoke
Liu Ruomei saw the dazed look in Feng Yimo's eyes. She reached out her hand and held Feng Yimo's big hand. Brother Feng, your starting point is good. You have to protect them, but there is a difference between mortals and immortals. We can live for thousands or even tens of thousands of years, but they can't! None of you are wrong!"
Feng Yimo's heart shook. There was a difference between mortals and immortals. His words were true. He had looked at everything with the eyes of an immortal. He had considered everything and had not experienced what Qing Yu and the others felt.
Feng Yimo waved his hand. Qing Yu, Hsu Mu, Lone Wolf, Xu Lin, Xu Yan, and the others all appeared in the inn. They looked at them sincerely and said, "I understand. I will buy you a manor. You will be the owners of your manor. You will live a carefree life and live the life you want. How about this?"
Qing Yu and the other two were grateful. They wanted to kneel again but were stopped by Liu Ruomei. "You three cannot do this. Brother Feng thinks you are brothers. If you kneel again, he will be unhappy."
Feng Yimo looked at Liu Ruomei with gratitude. She was really a considerate girl.
On the same day, Feng Yimo found the inn owner and asked where the big manor was sold in the city. The owner told him that there was a big manor in the east of the city. It occupied more than 300 acres and was very cheap. The reason was that people died there often and people did not buy it.
Feng Yimo smiled and went straight to the east of the city.
Soon, Feng Yimo was standing in front of a huge manor built on a mountain. The wall was 30 feet high and the gate was very powerful. There were two stone lions outside the gate. Unfortunately, the paint on the door was peeled off and mottled. Half of the door was even cut off, revealing the courtyard full of wild grass.
Feng Yimo walked in and saw three three-story buildings, then the back garden, and then the fields. There were 200 acres of land, but they were all abandoned.
In the courtyard, there was a stream. Although it was only 20 meters wide, one could hear the gurgling sound of water. On the shore of the stream, there were two fake mountains, forming the appearance of two dragons playing with water.
Feng Yimo was very satisfied with this courtyard. He returned to the main entrance and followed the notice to find the buyer. He only spent three thousand Spirit Crystals and bought it. After the procedures were completed, the huge courtyard was placed under Hsu Mu's name.
Feng Yimo brought Hsu Mu, Qing Yu, and the others to the outside of the manor. Everyone was very satisfied and excitedly started to clean up the weeds, garbage, and dust.
Feng Yimo asked people to repair the main gate, but those workers were not willing to enter the courtyard no matter what. They were not willing to pay any amount of money. A kind worker even advised Feng Yimo not to stay in the courtyard at night. People would die.
Feng Yimo smiled and did not take it seriously.
It took a lot of effort to clean up the big yard. Feng Yimo released more than 20 puppets to help Hsu Mu and the others. In just half a day, the courtyard was clean and looked brand new.
They bought some bedding, tables, and other things. The delivery men were also placed at the door. They were unwilling to come in, which made Feng Yimo even more curious. What exactly had happened in this house? They were as afraid as tigers and wolves.
Through the Great Wisdom Eye, Feng Yimo discovered the reason.
It turned out that this was a rich family with the surname Pang. There were hundreds of people here, and it was quite prosperous. However, later on, the Pang family offended a cultivation family and was exterminated overnight.
The city lord took back the mansion and put it up for auction. However, after the buyer stayed for two months, he suddenly died for no reason. More than ten people died. After a few rounds, the buyer died without exception. As a result, this mansion became a vicious mansion that had been abandoned until now.
The last buyer's relative was reluctant to abandon it, so he sold it at an extremely low price. Otherwise, such a mansion would cost at least 100,000 Spirit Crystals.
After the room was tidied up, Feng Yimo brought Liu Ruomei to the third floor of the main building. Hsu Mu, Qing Yu, and Lone Wolf lived on the second floor. Xu Lin and Xu Yan lived on the first floor, which was very spacious.
After dinner, Feng Yimo brought Liu Ruomei to walk around the spacious courtyard. He was not idling around, but he wanted to see what exactly this mansion had that could take those people's lives.
He did not believe that the cultivators of Lutong City would be indifferent to the death of so many people. Since they did not make a move, it meant that they did not discover the reason and could not make it public. Otherwise, they would lose a lot of face.
Feng Yimo walked around the huge manor, including the fields where the weeds were removed. He felt very strange, but he didn't find anything out of the ordinary. However, the dead here were indisputable facts. What exactly were they?
The first night, the safe and sound speed passed. Nothing unusual happened.
Hsu Mu and the others alone were not enough for such a large manor. They still needed servants, Maidservant, stewards, and so on. When they came to the city, they were unwilling to come even if they were beaten to death when they heard that it was a haunted house that hired people.
Therefore, Feng Yimo wanted to recruit Qing Yu and the others. The first thing he wanted to do was to wash away the name of the manor.
On the third day, Feng Yimo went to the Huo Family alone and met the young lady of the Huo Family. The two of them talked for two hours before Feng Yimo left the Huo Family. No one knew what the two of them had said.
On the seventh day Feng Yimo and the others stayed in the Xu Family, it was the night of the full moon.
When Hsu Mu and the others went to sleep, Feng Yimo asked Liu Ruomei to stay in the room and set up a Fire and Thunder Thunderbolt Spiritual Array around the main building. Then, he slowly waited for midnight to arrive.
The moment Zi Ye arrived, faint black smoke began to emerge from the surroundings of the entire residence. It seemed as if there was nothing there. It was as if the earth was slowly rising. There was nothing strange or uncomfortable about it. Feng Yimo had condensed the Great Wisdom Eye, but he had found nothing.1
However, when the black smoke slowly became thicker and thicker, it actually floated towards the main building. Who would have thought that when it touched the Fire Thunder Thunderbolt Spirit Formation, the spirit formation would be activated, and lightning would strike down and light up, causing the black smoke to disappear into thin air.
Vaguely, Feng Yimo heard a miserable scream from within the black smoke.
This thing was neither a ghost nor a malicious spirit. It looked like an ordinary smoke from a kitchen stove. It did not seem to be in any danger at all.
Feng Yimo took out a porcupine from the Sumeru Bracelet and threw it into the black smoke in the yard. The porcupine groaned and walked for more than ten steps. Suddenly, as if it was drunk, it swayed and fell to the ground. In just a moment, it was no longer breathing.
Feng Yimo was shocked. What was this? It was so powerful and only appeared on a full moon night. What frightened him was that the dead porcupine was not injured at all. It was as if it was sleeping. However, the attentive Feng Yimo found that the porcupine's soul was gone!
What was this black smoke?
If they had not set up the Fire Thunder Thunderbolt Spiritual Array in advance, Qing Yu, Hsu Mu and the rest would have been in trouble.
No wonder this house had become a vicious house. The cultivators of Lutong City could not do anything about this house, but since they had encountered it, they had to completely cut it off!
Feng Yimo took out several Thunder Sword Talismans and activated his powerful Yuan energy. Countless Thunder Swords shot toward the black smoke and instantly made the black smoke disappear.
