Chapter 132 Opening the Price

I stood up and walked to a position diagonally opposite Ye Yang, stopping in my tracks.

My current position formed a triangle with Ye Yang and Feng Ruoxing. If there was one more person standing next to me, the triangle could become a square.

I stood with my hands behind my back and said, "Gentlemen, shouldn't the three of us have a little chat?"

I asked twice in a row, but no one responded.

I said to myself, "Old Man Qian, you didn't return to this courtyard, you never left."

"The villagers said: the original residents of the four surrounding houses moved away because they were afraid of ghosts. In fact, these four houses are all yours, right?"

"According to the custom of building houses in the Northeast, the four houses seem not to be on a straight line, but in fact, the millstone on the left, the warehouse on the right, the fish pond in the back, and the henhouse in front of the house are connected to your house in the shape of a cross."

"Your courtyard is the core of the formation. Anyone who enters will surely die."

"However, the Zhang family's girl seems to be one step ahead, changing the outer formation and trapping you inside."

My voice suddenly turned stern: "Watch the position where I'm standing. As long as there is one more person standing to my right, my formation will be complete."

I raised four fingers: "Four people, I just need four people. Then I can advance and retreat freely, break the outer formation, and compress the inner formation."

"The grievances between the Qian family and the Zhang family have nothing to do with me. I just want what I want. Whoever gives me the higher price, I'll help!"

"Did you two hear me clearly?"

As soon as I finished speaking, I felt two gazes from the shadows suddenly become sharper.

Both sides were about to make a move.

I lowered my hands slightly, and Bai Zhou and Zi Ye appeared in my hands at the same time.

My voice turned slightly cold: "I don't want anyone standing next to me, so you better not come out. Otherwise, there will be another dead person next to me."

"Junior, I've lived for so long, and I've never seen such an arrogant junior like you!" Old Man Qian's voice came from underground.

I could roughly deduce that the voice was near the coffin, but the person didn't move at all.

As soon as Old Man Qian's voice faded, a burst of applause came from the rooftop in the distance: "Li Po, interesting. For thousands of years, it has always been fortune-tellers asking for prices, I've never seen anyone offering a price to a fortune-teller."

When I glanced sideways, a girl in black martial attire with a ponytail had appeared on the house to the right. Perhaps it was because she was wearing black that her face appeared as white as mutton fat and as warm as jade.

What was interesting was that her appearance, which should have been gentle and soft, was given a touch of jianghu (martial world) spirit by the wine bottle in her hand.

The girl raised her wine bottle and saluted me from afar: "It's only with wine that I can fully enjoy meeting an interesting opponent. I salute you!"

I smiled and said, "I'll drink this glass of wine when I see you!"

"I'm called Ling!" The girl's way of drinking with her head raised was exceptionally bold, but her name made my heart sink slightly.

The leader of Nan Weiyang, Ling!

Old Man Qian and Ling didn't speak, seemingly waiting for me to prove my formation to them.

I said calmly, "Actually, my formation is very simple, it's just Qiankun Nuoyi (universe shift). I can switch the person next to me with someone else. Of course, person for person, ghost for ghost."

"There are three people here, and you two happen to have a ghost in your hands. As long as a ghost stands next to me, I can switch Old Man Qian out. Or, switch Miss Ling down from the roof."

"Bullshit!" Old Man Qian cursed angrily, "I've lived for so long, and I've never heard of such a formation in the world."

With a cold laugh, I drew a dagger from my body and threw it on the position next to me. As I formed hand seals, I shouted sternly, "Switch!"

Although I only uttered one word, my voice was like a god roaring in the sky, shaking the surrounding fields. The remaining broken walls and rubble in the Qian family's courtyard trembled slightly with my angry shout.

The dagger next to me, however, turned into a crescent-shaped blade with a bit of elegance without any warning.

Ling, sitting on the roof, subconsciously touched her waist.

I glanced at the curved blade: "This hidden weapon should be a bit famous, right?"

The curved blade that fell next to me was even shorter than the dagger, and it looked very much like a legendary hidden weapon.

"Mingyue Zhan Tianlong (Bright Moon Slaying Heavenly Dragon)!" Ling's voice was as calm as water.

My eyes widened slightly: "The ancestor of hidden weapons?"

Although hidden weapons came in all shapes and sizes, they couldn't escape the shadow of five types of hidden weapons. These five types of hidden weapons were known as the Five Ancestors of Hidden Weapons. Among the Five Ancestors of Hidden Weapons were five holy items, and Mingyue Zhan Tianlong was one of them.

I said in a deep voice, "If you want it back, exchange Qin Xin for it with me."

Ling clapped her hands in the air, and Qin Xin indeed appeared in the courtyard where she was.

At this time, Qin Xin seemed to have her feet nailed in place, she was very close but could not move at all.

I remained calm on the surface, but a storm surged in my heart: Qin Xin's location was the last place I saw her.

What method did Ling use to make her disappear in front of my eyes?

While I was silent, Old Man Qian said, "Acting mysterious!"
