1495 Demon Escape 3

passion, a longing to be different from the rest.Even though it's a wishful thinking, I can't help but indulge in it.》》》Shiquan溝 New Village is very large. I found it last time I came, and it is unifo..."Blood soiling the earth, spirits bound by the land... There is too much killing and bloodshed here."

As expected, Jiang Qiyun's handsome eyebrows furrowed deeply once more.

"Didn't this place used to have some pretty shady businesses here Like, abortion clinics or slaughterhouses" I asked Chen Ruo in a hushed tone.

Chen Ru widened her eyes and nodded, "How did you know I heard that decades ago, this Daotong village was a place specifically for supplying fresh meat to the city. Most of the people here were farmers and butchers. However, after I came here, they closed down one by one. Young people would rather work as laborers than do such hard labor."

"After you arrived here" I asked in puzzlement, "Aren't you a local"

Chen Ru hesitated for a moment, pursed her lips, and whispered: "My family situation is a bit complicated... Forget it, just take the things back to the institute."

She didn't want to say, so I didn't press her.

I still trust Chen Ruo. After all, Bai Wu Chang has his attention on her—though I don't know what he's planning, being watched by him... well, it definitely means she'll be thoroughly teased.

The environment in the alley was even worse. I felt like every step I took, every brick I stepped on, would soak up blood from the dirt.

Hasn't anyone ever had an accident here Has no one ever called a sorcerer

Our daily living environment is generally divided into a large environment and a small environment. The large environment refers to the landscape, while the small environment is one's own home and surroundings.

If both environments are very poor, it will have a significant impact on life and health.

Chen Ru's house was a low, two-story old building. The yard was piled high with junk. Even before we entered, we could hear the sound of wine bottles being smashed inside.

"I, I'll just go in myself. The environment is too bad, it's embarrassing to ask you to come in. Sorry, sorry." Chen was full of embarrassment.

"Okay, I'll wait for you at the door."

Bang—

A broken bottle's sound came, a drunk man mumbled: "Who is this delicate little girl Are you calling her a chicken"

"Damn it! This is my sister's daughter, shut your stinking mouth!"

"Oh oh... all grown up like this, so handsome..."

I pressed against the courtyard gate, hearing Chen Ru's careful voice from inside: "That... I came back to get some things."

"What are you taking What do you still have at home Didn't you move everything to school There are just a few old clothes left in the closet!" A rough voice roared, followed by the sound of a chair being pushed.

I frowned and glanced back at Jiang Qiyun. He coldly met my gaze: "What, meddling again"

"Well, this isn't exactly idle gossip. Things are so chaotic here, I'm afraid she'll get taken advantage of."

Jiang Qiyun let out a faint hum: "…I won't suffer any losses."

"Chen Ru... does she have any special qualities Why do you look at her differently" I couldn't help my curiosity.

If saying Bai Wuchang looked at her favorably, I would still have some sympathy, after all, being favored by the Seventh Lord is unknown whether it's a blessing or a curse.

But Jiang Qiyun's cold and aloof personality, being slightly interested in someone, this shows... there's something going on.

"Hm" Jiang Qiyun raised an eyebrow slightly, revealing a rare hint of playfulness. Though the expression vanished as quickly as it appeared, I still saw it!

He saw me excitedly looking at him, bent his fingers and gently tapped my forehead, softly saying, "Observe slowly, you'll discover it."

Hm... Celestial deities speak in riddles, which makes them seem profound and inscrutable.

Suddenly, a crash as if something had been knocked over echoed through the house!

"Damn it! I raised you for so long, what else are you coming back for besides taking things home!" The drunk's voice suddenly rose.

There are several drunkards inside, should I go in and rescue Chen Ru

As soon as my hand touched the rusty gate, a cautious voice came from inside, "I brought the money back, I brought the money back... This is my income last month. I kept a little for living expenses, and the rest is all yours."

As soon as money was mentioned, the drunkard's voice softened: “ … That’s about right. The little brat still knows how to support her family…”

I peeked in through the gate, Chen Ruofang's drunkard was thin and seemed to be in poor health. He was counting the money Chen Ruofang had given him, bowing his head low.

Under the dim lights, I saw several banknotes of various sizes. They amounted to only a few hundred dollars at most.

Seeing that An was appeased, Chen quickly drew back and walked up the stairs: "I'll go upstairs and get a few clothes and then leave..."

"Alright, alright." The drunkard waved his hand dismissively, not caring at all about the bloodstain on Chen Ruo's front.

He didn't even glance at Chen Ruo.

How did Chen grow up in this kind of environment

Here, resentment permeates and the dampness breeds melancholy. It can make people anxious and irritable, filled with worry and bitterness. At best, it causes unease in the home and damages health; at worst, it leads to bloodshed and legal troubles.

This courtyard was cramped and narrow. The staircase leading upstairs was an exposed iron ladder, and Chen Ruo's abode was a small attic.

I saw her hurriedly change clothes, carrying a small bag, and run out of the courtyard like she was escaping.

Closing the courtyard gate, the sound of drunken revelry faded considerably, and she let out a small sigh of relief.

"Sorry, I made you laugh..." Chen Ruo awkwardly smiled at me.

I followed her for a few steps, hearing the men in the yard behind me still talking about Chen Ru.

"Brother, does your daughter have a boyfriend yet"

"Who knows anything about her They wouldn't tell me even if they did!"

“Let me tell you, I know a foreman on a construction site, that guy is rich! But I heard he has some physical issues. It's said that he hasn't found a wife all this time, and he even says he must find a 'virgin' as his wife! Or should I introduce you, my 'daughter', to him”

"Hey, this kind of man has problems both physically and mentally. Big brother, don't marry your daughter to him!"

"You don't know a thing! This man is rich! It's better to marry a wealthy man than some unknown, cheap guy!"

“Well, your daughter is so beautiful! You could easily take a few hundred thousand yuan as the dowry!”

Chen Ru didn't hear those words. She saw me frowning and looking back, then she secretly tugged at my sleeve and said, "Let's go quickly, this place is dirty and messy. It's really not suitable for someone like Sister Mu."

I don't feel well. What are these drunkards talking about Are they planning to sell Chen Ru

"Let's go." Jiang Qiyun urged me in a low voice, "Staying here for too long is pointless, and we'll only end up tainted by this negative energy."

It's no wonder Chen, a young girl, would choose to live in the mourning hall and eat instant noodles. Every second spent in this kind of family makes her feel restless and agitated.

Chen was unwilling to talk about her family background, and I didn't want to press her. When I sent her back to the spirit hall at the cemetery, it was almost dawn.

Jiang Qiyun saw that I hadn't slept all night and said with some displeasure, "Your ceaseless running around is harmful to your body and even more so to your cultivation... Let the local spirits of this place guard it, you should go home and rest."

"...I'll just take a nap in the car."

"No," he frowned, "The qi here is heavy and oppressive. Resting here will harm your yang energy. Just leave the ghost guard to watch over it."

Ah Da and Ah Meng immediately obeyed respectfully. These two guys, when I gave them tasks, they would slack off and be sneaky. Jiang Qiyun only needed to glance at them, and they would obediently accept orders, feeling very pleased with themselves.

I was sent home by Jiang Qiyun, he watched me fall onto the pillow with his own eyes, and then his figure gradually faded away.

I had just closed my eyes when my phone started buzzing crazily. My brother was speaking excitedly on the other end, I could only vaguely hear him rambling about something.igh heels. Her figure was curvaceous and enchanting.But her demeanor was extremely cautious, her eyes fixed on Boss Zhao without leaving him for a moment.Aliang said, “This woman must be protecting he...
