#2759 - The cause of the strange incident in Qi Mansion
“I don't believe you haven't done anything immoral.”
Jun Wuxie was certain they must have done something unethical.
The Yin energy and resentment here gathered and did not dissipate, and only shrouded the Qi residence, the target was very clear.
“Immortal Master, we really haven't, we really can't think of anything…”
“Think about it carefully again.”
Jun Wuxie said slowly while drinking tea.
The two heads of the Qi family fell into thought, carefully recalling past events, searching their memories.
What kind of things count as immoral?
What degree of immorality could attract such strong Yin energy and resentment?
If they were to talk about immorality, they were very clear in their hearts that they had done many things in their lives.
But those kinds of immoral things were relatively small, not very immoral.
After all, they were merchants, and it was inevitable that they would do some unscrupulous things for profit.
Profit was the primary pursuit of merchants, and for this reason, they might use some tricks.
But even so, they asked themselves whether they had ever done anything to harm anyone, not enough to bring about such consequences, right?
Could this be heavenly retribution?
They couldn't understand what connection there was between the Yin energy and resentment here and immoral deeds.
Just as they were thinking, Jun Wuxie stood up from his seat.
He walked out of the hall, observing the surroundings of the residence, with mysterious runes manifested in his eyes.
Seeing him like this, the two heads of the Qi family hurriedly followed.
“Still can't remember? Is it because you've done too many immoral things?”
“Immortal Master…”
The two heads of the Qi family looked embarrassed, “This… Immortal Master, as you know, we are businessmen,
Doing business puts profit first, and sometimes using tricks is unavoidable.
But we swear that we have absolutely never harmed anyone's life!
We have indeed done quite a few small immoral things, but we have never done anything too excessive.
Therefore, the two of us really can't think of why our Qi family is suffering such misfortune, please enlighten us, Immortal Master!”
“How many years has your Qi family's mansion been built?”
Hearing him ask this, the two heads of the Qi family couldn't help but be taken aback, and said: “More than a thousand years, I suppose.
In the past, we built the mansion here after mining the veins for more than ten years.
The mansion was built for only a few years, and the New Mine Town was also built.”
“You really know how to choose a building site.”
Jun Wuxie said, turning to look at the two of them, “You should have invited a talisman master to look at the Feng Shui back then.”
“Immortal Master has keen eyes, indeed a talisman master looked at the Feng Shui of this place.”
“Then didn't the talisman master who looked at the Feng Shui know that this was originally someone else's burial ground?”
“This…”
The two heads of the Qi family showed embarrassment, and said: “Knowing is knowing, the talisman master also told us and asked for our opinion.
However, he said that this is a treasure land of Feng Shui, which can gather luck, so it will give birth to a treasure cave of Feng Shui.
At that time, apart from the graves and broken tombstones on the ground, there were no bones under the earth.
The talisman master repeatedly checked through the talisman path at that time.
Since there were no bones in this place, we flattened the graves and demolished the tombstones, and built the mansion here.”
“Are you sure there were no bones?”
“Sure, we wouldn't dare to deceive the Immortal Master.
Before we built the mansion, we dug out a coffin, which was empty.”
“Occupying someone else's grave is already taboo, let alone a treasure cave of Feng Shui.
It would have been fine for you to do other things in this place, but you built a mansion again, taking over the magpie's nest.
This is one of the roots of the misfortune your Qi residence is encountering.”
“This…”
The two heads of the Qi residence looked dumbfounded.
“Immortal Master, but the tomb was clearly empty.
How can an empty grave bring such strange things to our Qi family, where did the Yin energy and resentment come from?”
“Where did it come from? Are you still not clear about the matter now?
Are you really not clear, or are you pretending not to know?”
The two heads of the Qi family heard this, their faces flushed slightly, their lips trembled several times, but they didn't make a sound.
“What did you dig up when you flattened the grave back then?”
“We…”
The eldest and second of the Qi family looked at each other, and then said: “We… we dug up an underground palace, entered the first floor, and saw an empty coffin…”
“Then you opened the coffin, what did you do inside the coffin?”
“After we opened the coffin, we took some things from inside…”
“And then, what else did you do?”
“This…”
The two were silent, their faces flushed red.
They didn't expect that the Immortal Master just looked at the mansion a few times, and actually deduced what happened back then, and it was so detailed, without any deviation, as if he was watching from the side back then.
“We saw the bones…
Later, we carried the entire coffin out.
After all, we want to build a mansion and use the Feng Shui luck of this treasure land. If there is a coffin underground, it is a very unlucky thing.
Therefore, we threw the coffin together with the bones inside to the depths of the abandoned pit, and buried the abandoned mine…”
“So, I asked you before whether you have done anything immoral.
You said that you have not done anything very immoral.
In your opinion, is this matter not immoral enough?
You seized people's resting place, stole people's burial goods, and when you were done, you threw away the entire coffin, and built a mansion here.”
“Immortal Master, we know we were wrong, we really did something very immoral about this matter.
It's just that the temptation of this treasure land of Feng Shui to gather luck was too great for our Qi family at that time.
In addition, the person in the Feng Shui treasure cave had already passed away for who knows how many years, and the bones were almost decayed.
We thought that it was meaningless for him to occupy the treasure land like this, it would be better for us to use it, that's why…
Immortal Master, do you mean that the strange things our Qi residence is encountering originated from the owner of the tomb back then?
Please save us, Immortal Master!”
The two heads of the Qi family realized the seriousness of the matter and knelt down with a thud.
It seems that the tomb owner has an unfulfilled obsession, and with the nourishment of the earth's veins, he has become something terrible, and he is back for revenge!
“Now you know to be afraid?
Your Qi family can be considered a small cultivation family, and there are old ancestors in the Immortal Realm in the family.
A thousand years ago, even if your ancestors were not in the Immortal Realm, they were at least masters in the Eternal Life Realm.
Didn't he know that the tombs in the dragon vein area cannot be easily touched?
What's more, it's still a Feng Shui tomb.
There will be various possibilities in this kind of place, subverting your understanding.”
“We know we were wrong, please save our Qi family, Immortal Master!
If the Immortal Master can help my Qi family get through this calamity, in addition to the reward originally given to the Jinyun Immortal Sect for help, my Qi family is willing to give you an extra reward.”
“What extra reward? I came from the Jinyun Immortal Sect, and I am taking on a sect mission. I only need to return to the sect to receive the reward, I don't need you to give any extra reward.”
Although Jun Wuxie is very short of Heavenly Dao coins now, he takes them in a proper way.
After all, he is now a disciple of the Jinyun Immortal Sect.
If he takes extra rewards, and this matter spreads out, it will be a reputation damage to the Jinyun Immortal Sect.
To avoid causing unnecessary trouble for himself in the future, he will naturally not be greedy for this little benefit.
“Immortal Master…”
“Alright, I don't need you to give any more rewards.
But if you want to solve this problem, it will not only cost you the reward you paid to my sect.
You must immediately have someone prepare sacrifices.
What did you take from the coffin back then?
Now, according to the same grade or value of things, take out three times the amount.
Also, I need a drop of essence blood from each strong person in your Qi family's leadership.
Go and prepare.”
“Yes, we will go now, please make yourself at home, Immortal Master, please forgive us if there is any neglect, we will prepare everything you need as quickly as possible!”
The two heads of the Qi family left in a hurry.
They have to do this matter themselves.
The things the Immortal Master said, can't be sloppy, are the key to whether the Immortal Master can solve the family crisis.
“Lord Jun, what things are needed to solve the Qi family's problem?”
Mo Qingli expressed disbelief, with Lord Jun's ability, it shouldn't be necessary.
“Qingli, when we go to solve some things, we still have to look at right and wrong, cause and effect.
The person who once slept under this land did nothing wrong.
The root of everything lies in the Qi family.
After the blessing of the dragon energy and luck emanating from the earth's veins, and the nourishment of the long years, he has such an opportunity.
How can I help the Qi family to harm him in order to earn Heavenly Dao coins and sect contributions.
The essence blood of the Qi family's principals, plus the things they sacrificed, can help him, so it should be able to resolve his resentment.
Although the resentment here is extremely heavy, have you noticed.
For several days now, the entire Qi family, although some people have disappeared for no reason, there have been no confirmed deaths.”
“Lord Jun means that although the resentful spirit is full of anger and resentment, it still maintains its sanity and doesn't kill randomly?”
“That's right, although he was born from the collapsed dragon energy and resentment, he did not become a resentful spirit who could not control his murderous nature.
Of course, part of the reason may be that killing would have serious consequences for himself.
But if he is truly swallowed by resentment, he will not consider these things at all.
It shows that he still has a trace of consciousness.”
… …
In the afternoon, the two heads of the Qi family returned.
They brought all the things Jun Wuxie said.
There are many relatively rare resources.
These things were once obtained from the coffin.
Of course, not exactly the same, some things can't be bought the same, only things of the same grade can be used instead.
In addition to resources, there are also three wooden dolls.
“Immortal Master, we have prepared everything, three times the amount according to your requirements.
Look, when do we start?”
“Hold your horses. Have the blood samples been collected?
We need a drop of essence blood from each of the Qijia Clan's decision-makers.”
“Ours are ready, but we haven't obtained the Old Ancestor's yet.
The Old Ancestor is currently in his residence, in a deep sleep during the day, bound by immortal-grade ropes.
Although we've controlled the Old Ancestor's movements, he's still a powerhouse in the Imperishable Realm, and his body has a powerful passive defense mechanism. We can't extract essence blood from him…”
“It doesn't matter. Just prepare the essence blood of the other decision-makers in your Qifu Clan.
As for your Old Ancestor's, I'll personally retrieve it when the time comes.
Now, take me to the place where you discarded the coffin.
There are some things I need to confirm.”
“Alright, Immortal Master, please follow us.”
The two patriarchs of the Qijia Clan led the way, leaving the residence and heading towards the mine.
Before long, they brought Jun Wuxie and Mo Qingli to an abandoned mine shaft within the mine.
This mine shaft had been sealed off by them a thousand years ago.
The two stepped forward and reopened the sealed mine shaft.
As the boulders tumbled down, a dense aura of Yin energy rushed towards them like a tide.
The two were unable to dodge in time, and their bodies were impacted by the Yin energy. They staggered back several steps, feeling icy cold all over, their body hairs standing on end, and their hearts filled with cold air, as if their blood had been frozen.
The two revealed horrified expressions, both casting their gazes towards Jun Wuxie.
“Follow me.”
Jun Wuxie walked into the mine shaft, Mo Qingli walking shoulder to shoulder with him.
The two patriarchs of the Qijia Clan swallowed, nervously following behind.
The mine shaft was very dark, with little light, giving off a terrifyingly eerie feeling, and the煞 (sha) energy was very dense.
The two followed behind Jun Wuxie and Mo Qingli, their bodies trembling uncontrollably, a sense of unspeakable fear spreading in their hearts, and their legs involuntarily shaking.
They followed the mine shaft for a long distance, finally arriving at a deep abyss that remained.
In fact, this wasn't an abyss, but a mine shaft dug downwards when mining the divine ore back then.
There was still a rope at the edge of the mine shaft, made of a special material, hanging down along the mine shaft.
However, the mine shaft was too dark to see where the rope reached.
“Immortal Master, this is the place. We threw the coffin down from here back then…”
The elder patriarch of the Qijia Clan's palm lit up with the light of magic power, illuminating the area.
He cautiously looked down into the mine shaft, but couldn't see the end.
Even the light condensed from magic power suddenly disappeared when it reached a certain depth in the mine shaft.
At this moment, the pupils of the second patriarch of the Qijia Clan suddenly contracted.
He looked at the rope at the edge of the mine shaft, which was swaying, as if something was climbing up the rope from below.
This scene, coupled with the environment they were in, made him tremble all over, feeling a chill run from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead and temples, and his lips trembled involuntarily.
“Rope, Immortal Master, look at the rope!”
The second patriarch of the Qijia Clan reminded, his voice somewhat unsteady, trembling.
Upon hearing this, the elder patriarch looked over, and his body hairs stood on end. He staggered back several steps, his body swaying and his face pale.
“I know the resentment in your heart, but I hope this matter can be resolved properly, in a way that you can both accept.”
“Roar—”
Just as Jun Wuxie finished speaking, a low and violent roar came from the dark mine shaft.
A surge of intense Yin energy rushed upwards like a flood.
The two patriarchs of the Qijia Clan were greatly shocked.
Before the Yin energy even touched them, they felt their blood congeal and their legs no longer obeyed their commands, almost collapsing to the ground.
They were terrified.
How strong was the vengeful spirit in the mine shaft?
Jun Wuxie didn't speak, reaching out his hand.
A semi-transparent immortal power palm evolved from blood energy directly penetrated into the depths of the mine shaft.
A more violent roar than before came from below.
However, the roar didn't last long, stopping after a dozen or so cries.
During this process, a clanging sound also came from the depths of the mine shaft, like metal hitting the ground.
“Calm down and think carefully.
Tonight, I will wait for you in the Qifu Clan.”
“Hee hee…”
A joyful laughter, resembling that of a child, came from the mine shaft, echoing continuously within the mine.
It was hair-raising in such an environment.
There was no sound response from the depths of the mine shaft.
Jun Wuxie retracted the immortal power palm evolved from blood energy from the bottom of the mine shaft and turned to leave.
The two patriarchs of the Qifu Clan hurriedly followed, fearing that they would be attacked by the terrifying thing in the mine shaft if they were too far away from the Immortal Master.
“Wuwu…”
Just as Jun Wuxie and the others had walked some distance away, a low, sad cry came from the ground of the mine shaft behind them.
The sadness contained in this voice was so strong that it made people feel sad, having a very strong appeal.
“Immortal Master…”
The two patriarchs of the Qijia Clan felt terrified, involuntarily grabbing Jun Wuxie's sleeves.
Jun Wuxie suddenly stopped, looking at them coldly, raising his hand and giving each of them a slap.
The two were immediately stunned.
“Why did the Immortal Master hit us?”
The two patriarchs of the Qijia Clan, covering their burning faces, were filled with shock and grievance.
“You deserve it!”
Jun Wuxie restrained his anger, saying four words, and then ignored them, quickly walking towards the outside of the mine shaft.
