Fatty: "??!!"

Ding Zhenzong was stunned, and quickly explained, "Sorry, sorry, I remembered wrong, we are masters, we are the people you are looking for. Don't think we dress strangely, we are actually very powerful and can solve the strange things you encounter!"

After being tempered by the mission, Ding Zhenzong became much more honest.

"Oh, so that's how it is. My family emphasizes convincing people with virtue. If you masters are unwilling to go, please don't force yourselves," the man kindly advised.

"No forcing, no forcing."

"In that case, please follow me, masters. My second young master has been waiting for a long time. He originally wanted to greet you in person, but..." The man sighed involuntarily, his eyes slightly red.

But after the previous experience, no one dared to say too much, for fear of being shot as a negative example.

Honestly speaking, after so many missions, everyone had become indifferent to life and death. They could accept being killed by ghosts in the mission, but they couldn't accept being shot in the mission.

That was too insulting.

After the man finished speaking, he led the way, turning seven times and eight times, until they came to an alley. There was a carriage in the alley. The moment they saw the carriage, everyone felt like they had traveled through time.

After all, they were now in the bustling metropolis of Shanghai, and their minds couldn't quite make the transition.

"Second Young Master, they have arrived." The man stepped forward and stood respectfully on the side of the carriage.

The curtain of the carriage was then pulled open, and a young man with traditional clothes and delicate features appeared before them. Surprisingly, this second young master still had a long braid behind his head.

The Second Young Master sat in the carriage in a strange posture.

"Masters, thank you for making this trip. I hope you will pay more attention to my father's matter." The young man's face was very pale, and he spoke weakly.

Even stranger was his sitting posture, with one leg outward and the other inward. Coupled with the strange expression the leading man had when mentioning the Second Young Master, everyone felt suspicious.

Seeming to see the doubts in everyone's eyes, the young man smiled sadly and ordered, "Lai Fu, help me out of the carriage."

Upon hearing this, the man called Lai Fu immediately lowered his body and said in a panic, "Second Young Master, your body..."

"It's okay, the masters are all capable, maybe they can see the reason for my illness." The Second Young Master was quite unrestrained. With Lai Fu's support, he limped out of the carriage.

"Your leg..."

Everyone could see that the Second Young Master's left leg seemed to be injured and he couldn't exert any strength. He limped as he walked, only able to take a step with his right leg and then drag his left leg.

Li Bai was a surgeon, and Yuan Shanyuan claimed to be the director of a traditional Chinese medicine hospital. The two immediately stepped forward to check, but after an examination, the conclusion was very subtle. There was no obvious problem with the Second Young Master's left leg, and no problems could be felt in the joints.

The Second Young Master shook his head and said in a tone that seemed resigned, "To be honest, masters, I have already asked several famous doctors to examine my leg, but none of them can see the problem."

"How long have you been like this?" Li Bai naturally substituted himself into the identity of a surgeon in the real world, asking about the patient's condition.

"Including today, it's been 4 days," the Second Young Master sighed.

"4 days?"

"Yes, the problem with my leg has nothing to do with injury. I woke up like this after a night's sleep."

At this point, everyone keenly noticed that the Second Young Master's tone had changed, and his emotions had also fluctuated violently. He was afraid.

"Did anything happen that night?" Jiang Cheng asked, carefully choosing his words.

The Second Young Master was silent for a long time, then suddenly said, "Masters, let's get in the carriage and get on the road first. When we get to the town, we will tell you the details of what happened."

"The journey is quite long, and the mountain road is bumpy, so please bear with us, masters." The Second Young Master's words sounded nice, but the more he said that, the more uneasy Jiang Cheng and the others felt.

They rode in silence, Jiang Cheng and the others sitting in two carriages, making a total of three carriages, including the Second Young Master's.

After leaving the city, the carriages went west all the way. The mountain road was more rugged than expected, with steep mountains and a cliff dozens of meters high on one side of the road, without any barriers. Fortunately, the coachmen were skilled and daring, so no accidents occurred.

As darkness fell, and they were almost falling asleep, the carriages finally stopped.

"We're here, masters, please get out of the carriage."

This was a street corner, next to an alley. Lai Fu supported the Second Young Master, and the two limped into the alley. Everyone followed obediently behind.

The walls on both sides were vermilion, very high, and the night sky was squeezed into a crack. The surroundings were eerily quiet, and everyone was silent, the atmosphere very depressing.

Fatty looked up at the lanterns hanging high on the side of the wall, and couldn't help but shudder.

Too strange...

Before entering the alley, he saw the lanterns hanging on both sides of the alley. On the left were red lanterns with festive figures pasted on them, while on the right, opposite them, was a row of white lanterns with a large character "Dian" (奠 - funeral offering) written on them in black ink.

One side was bright red, the other pale white. Dozens of red and white lanterns swayed slightly in the night breeze, as if greeting the guests.

"What's going on? Who hangs lanterns like this?" Ding Zhenzong couldn't help but wrap his clothes tightly around him, muttering in a low voice, "Hanging red and white lanterns together is a big taboo. What kind of evil thing did this family encounter?"

Before he finished speaking, Yao Shunyu, who was behind him, scolded, "Shut up if you don't understand, be careful of inviting trouble."

Ding Zhenzong seemed to be quite afraid of Yao Shunyu. After hearing this, he continued to hug himself tightly and obediently stopped talking, mainly because he was cold. Ever since he entered this alley, he had been terribly cold, and even more strangely, he couldn't feel where the wind was coming from, as if the cold air came from all directions.

"Don't talk nonsense, this is a Red and White Clash. There is an expert setting up a formation here." Luo Tianhe's voice sounded, and there was even a hint of panic in his usually steady voice. "We may be in trouble this time."

"Well, if I'm not mistaken, the head of this family is already dead, and judging from this situation, more people will die. Since they are willing to set up such a feng shui formation, it seems that things have reached the point of no return, and it's possible that the whole family will die." Yuan Shanyuan also showed a solemn expression at this moment, and his demeanor was extraordinary.

Everyone dared not underestimate the words of these two.

Before long, they arrived at a door, with two lanterns hanging on either side, one red and one white.

Lai Fu stepped forward and knocked on the door. Soon, there was a burst of hurried footsteps running from inside. Even through the door, they could feel the person's panic. The Second Young Master's face also became panicked.

The door was pulled open with a bang. The person who opened the door saw the Second Young Master, and his face was twisted like an abstract painting. "Second Young Master, it's bad, Master... he's back again!"
