140: C140 Wei Family Young Master

C140 Wei Family Young Master

Xia Ling's destination, of course, was the large courtyard house in the middle.

Because according to Liu Xiaolai, this was the location of the Wei Family Chamber of Commerce. Their leader, Old Master Wei's residence. However, half a year ago, the famous Old Master Wei had unfortunately passed away due to the harassment by ghosts.

Xia Ling planned to pay a visit today and see if he can find Xia Yanning's whereabouts.

But as he walked, he discovered that Wei Family Village, which had always been relatively quiet, was unexpectedly still noisy here.

There was a bit of human life in the entire village.

A group of people surrounded a grand vermillion door in twos and threes. Their faces were more or less green, but they looked a lot better than the people outside.

They were mostly elderly people and women, sitting around and chatting.

"Have you heard? Wei Family sent someone here today to exorcise ghosts. " One of the aunts said as she looked at him mysteriously.

A woman beside her asked in confusion, "Hey, didn't they say the ghosts had already been eliminated?"

The old lady from the beginning glared at her, revealing a look of disdain, "You don't even know this? Although the ghosts have been removed, Madam Wei Family has a problem with her fear during the night and she has committed it from time to time. "

"... The old lady was old, too, after what had happened six months ago. "They have been talking nonstop, and every now and then, they would have to find a master to chase them away." "The woman said confidently." I think she's bewitched. "

Another woman on the side answered and said nonchalantly, "He's rich, so it's not a problem for him to hire people to play God in the house every day." "I just hope that I can be at ease."

"Sigh, but the master that she invited this time is truly unusual."

"Right, right. It seems to be a little girl as well, right?" One of them said doubtfully.

"What ability can this master have?" You're not here to cheat me of my money, are you? "

When Xia Ling heard this, he led his horse towards them. He opened his mouth and asked: "Excuse me, is this the Wei Family Big House that had an incident that caused a ghost half a year ago?"

Logically speaking, if a foreigner suddenly asked about this kind of thing, it would definitely raise one's guard. However, these aunties did not have this kind of feeling. Instead, they straightforwardly said:

"That's right, that's right. Half a year ago, the Wei Family Big House was haunted. That was awesome!"

As he said this, he even became excited.

As the woman spoke, she suddenly reacted and stared at Xia Ling. Then she guessed with certainty, "Are you here to exorcise ghosts as well?"

"Huh?" Xia Ling was stunned and couldn't react. I'm here to exorcise ghosts, I'm clearly here to look for someone, right?

He didn't expect that everyone else also said affirmatively, "That's right! You're here to exorcise ghosts!"

"Seriously, a child at such a young age shouldn't learn to drive ghosts away."

"Are you here to cheat money?"

What and what? Xia Ling's head instantly felt like it was going to explode.

"That's not it..." He was about to open his mouth to say something when he was interrupted.

"In this half year, I've seen a lot of these ghost cultivators." The woman interrupted Xia Ling's words without any hesitation as if she was well-informed.

"Ride on a horse and carry a sword on your back. He asked about the matter of the ghosts the moment he arrived. If it were not for the fact that the Wei Family has spread the news too far, the notice to hire a ghost exorcist at such a high price might even be posted in the capital. "

She smiled and said with a look of understanding, "You probably saw the notice and came to cheat, right? It's fine, I understand you. In any case, Wei Family is a big business, so I don't mind giving you all this small money. "Just now, a little girl about your age entered.

Xia Ling finally understood that he couldn't get anything out of them if he kept arguing with them like this.

He sighed helplessly and cupped his hands in thanks, "Then I'll thank you. I'll ask around."2

Saying that, Xia Ling tied the horse to the side, and under everyone's dubious gaze, he knocked on the big red door of Wei Family. He knew that he was about to become the topic of this group of people's discussion.

Not long after, the door creaked open as if it hadn't been oiled in a long time. A skinny old man squeezed out of the door frame and asked in a hoarse voice, "Who is it? What can I do for you? "

Xia Ling frowned unnoticeably.

In fact, he could tell from the aura of the person in front of him that he was at most fifty years old. But on the surface, this old man was probably seventy or eighty years old.

Moreover, the green gas on his face was especially serious, as if it had already invaded his body.

Xia Ling opened his mouth and said: "Old sir, I am from Xia Family. Our family's eldest daughter passed by here half a year ago, and now the news is unclear. "Therefore, Chief, please allow me to inquire about the situation. I hope that you can help out with this matter."

To be honest, whether or not he did it was none of his business. Xia Ling cultivated the way of the sword, not the kind of monstrously talkative thing that could take down demons and demons.

Since this Wei Family was so rich, if they were to exorcise ghosts, they could just find a professional for it. If he asked for Xia Yanning's whereabouts, he would leave immediately.

"Oh, in that case, please come in first." The old man nodded, opened the door politely and led the horse inside.

Although Wei Family was not a big family, it had been rising for dozens of years. He had developed his demeanor of treating others well. Of course, they wouldn't let guests that came from far away just stand at the door.

Xia Ling walked in after thanking him. After turning around the wall, he saw a completely new scene.

A large square table made of mahogany was placed in front of the main house. It was decorated with a few fragrant incense sticks with three offerings on both sides. There were also some messy red and yellow slips of paper. It was unknown what were written on them.

There were also some miscellaneous objects surrounding this table. There were pillars, cushions, talismans, etc. Looking at Xia Ling, he felt dizzy. What the hell was this?

Even the trees next to the yard were tied with red ropes.

Seeing Xia Ling's expression, the old man explained in a considerate manner, "Don't be surprised, don't be surprised. It's just that we happen to be having legal proceedings today. "

Law?

Xia Ling had seen quite a number of judicial matters, but he had never been like this before.

The old leader led Xia Ling and walked into a small living room. He made Xia Ling wait for a moment, and not long after, a middle-aged man walked over.

"So you're a friend of Ningnan City. Please accept my apologies."

Ningnan City was the largest city in the entire continent. And Xia Family was one of the three great families in Ningnan City, a thousand year old family with outstanding reputation. This name was very popular in Ping Xing City.

Xia Ling also stood up and saluted with his hands cupped, "You are too kind. I only have a small matter to take care of."

That person walked forward with a smile and invited Xia Ling to sit. Then, he said: "I have not been introduced, but I am the first young master of Wei Family Village, Wei Xianli. "May I ask who you are?"

Xia Ling said: "I am a disciple of Xia Family, my name is Xia Ling. This time, I am here on behalf of the clan leader to look for our young miss. "

Wei Xianli nodded with a thoughtful look on his face. He was silent for a while, then said: "Speaking of which, it seems that someone from your Xia Family did indeed pass by here some time ago."
