To know a word is to works

Staying temporarily at the Lin household

    

nything wrong!This place is pitch black! It's surrounded by icy cold ghostly energy! There are monsters and demons swirling around me, not even a single ghost can be seen! Even the demons are eating e...Lin Yanhuan listened to my detailed explanation and still maintained a serious and composed expression.

Is this person really not afraid of anything that happens Shouldn't an ordinary person be nervous and scared if they hear about a ghost coming after them

And I told Lin Yanhuan about Lili's manner of death and cause of death. He listened silently, nodding lightly without being surprised or flustered.

This guy really thinks his family can do anything, doesn't he He's so calm, it worries me for him.

"So, Guo's daughter thought I killed her father and wanted to raise a ghost to harm me. She ended up raising a malevolent spirit and was ultimately killed by it" Lin Yanhuan summarized.

I nodded, opting to avoid a convoluted explanation and leaving out the part about Mu Yunliang.

"Then what do I need to do Miss Mu, you're such a delicate little girl, are you going to protect me That seems rather ridiculous." Lin Yanhuan looked down on me with seriousness: "I'd better ask a few mages to exorcise the ghost."

I curled my lip and said, "Mr. Lin, please feel free. You are the boss, you can invite as many people to protect you as you like."

When we arrived at the grand Lin family mansion, the sky was just beginning to lighten. My brother and I were assigned rooms next to each other, with an interconnecting door between them. This arrangement gave me a little peace of mind. After breakfast at the Lin's, I changed into my pajamas and fell asleep on the bed for a nap.

I slept until the evening before I woke up. As soon as I groggily reached for my phone, a huge noise startled me!

My brother heard it too. I was still confused, but he had already rushed over from next door. After making sure I was fine, he slowly sauntered out to the balcony to see what had happened.

"Whoa... Qiao, don't come any closer." My brother backed up two steps, blocking me in the room.

"What's going on down there All this commotion, it couldn't be an explosion, could it" I tried to peek out, but my brother pushed me back with his hand on my forehead.

"Stop looking, we'll know when we get down there."

No sooner had the words left his mouth than someone hurriedly knocked on the door. A man in a black suit rushed in, saying urgently: "Miss Mu, Mr. Mu, our young master requests your presence downstairs."

We followed him downstairs and saw that on the first floor, a section of the courtyard wall and a window were shattered. There was blood splattered above them.

Someone must have died.

I sighed inwardly, Lin Yanhuan still didn't listen to my advice.

I walked into the tea room, staring coldly at Lin Yanhuan. This guy didn't listen to my advice at all!

I repeatedly told him that it's crucial to avoid any construction in the direction of Wu Huang Da Sha, but he definitely didn't follow my advice!

"Miss Mu—"

"I've already warned you," I said to him helplessly. "Mr. Lin, if you don't really believe in Yin-Yang metaphysics, then don't waste money hiring us. I've advised you several times, but you haven't taken my words to heart."

“I’m so sorry.” He frowned deeply, lowering his voice. “To be honest with you, Miss Mu, my coming to this city for family business is just a surface identity. There are some national missions behind the scenes that I can’t disclose. Therefore, the things in my study are very important and must be completed as soon as possible. Security overhaul.”

Alas, what else can I do but sigh Dealing with a disobedient boss really adds to the workload.

I just saw a small construction vehicle outside the window. It must have been the one installing things for his study, but it suddenly malfunctioned and hit a worker. Looking at it, I knew things were bad.

120 arrived, and the emergency doctor took a look. The worker's sternum was shattered, his ribs had pierced several internal organs, and he died from blood loss directly.

Lin Yan's face was as heavy as water, there were some things he couldn't help but believe.

"Mr. Lin, if you really want us to help you, just listen to me, okay I don't want anything to happen to you! You didn't see the crime scene yesterday, it was so terrifying, I don't want to see it again." I said seriously to Lin Yanhuan.

He unexpectedly broke into a faint smile, his poker face softening.

This person! They actually still laugh!

"Okay, from now on I'll do as you say. As for the mistakes I made before, is there still a chance to remedy them Would Miss Mu like to see my study"

"Didn't you say it was okay to watch" I was a little surprised.

Lin Yanhuan frowned slightly and said, "…It's still best if you take a look. We can't have any more accidents. Once the news media gets involved, it will be difficult to control public opinion."

When we were about to go upstairs, the housekeeper brought in several people. The leader was a middle-aged man in a Tang suit, with a stern face and an imposing presence.

"Young Master, this is Master Qi and Master Lu..." The butler briefly introduced the several "Masters".

Lin Yanhuan did not shake their hands, only nodded and said: “Thank you.”

He was really speechless, uttering only a single "thank you," leaving these self-proclaimed masters waiting to boast completely unable to respond.

I stood there dumbfounded, still holding the small compass in my hand, forgetting to put it away. Master Qi, with his sharp eyes, saw it and sneered, "Are you from the Shen family's Kun Dao"

I put the compass behind me and shook my head. "No."

Master Qi narrowed his eyes: "Not The compass in your hand is the Shen family's important magic weapon 'Yu Xuanji'. You are not a member of the Shen family, how could you be holding this"

My brother angrily shouted, "What's it to you You checking people's household registrations We're the Mu family, go check if you want!"

As soon as the surname Mu was mentioned, everyone across the table raised an eyebrow, sporting expressions that seemed to say they were ready for a good show.

"So you're the two up-and-comers, huh ...Quite famous in the circle lately, aren't you You don't even understand seniority! You're just like the rest of those unmannered Mu family members!" A man with glasses, who called himself a "master," looked down on us with disdain.

Before my brother could even speak, Lin Yanhuan coldly said, "Miss Mu and Master Mu are guests I invited. What's your opinion"

That "master" was startled and immediately stopped talking.

"Butler, treat these esteemed guests well and let them know the situation. I'll take my leave first... Both of you, this way." Lin Yanhuan's obvious preference towards us made the faces of those masters behind him turn as dark as the bottom of a pot.

If an ordinary family dared to treat these masters this way, they would have long since left in a huff. However, the other party is the Lin family, and they even need to carefully consider whether to put on a show of displeasure.

"Look at Master Qi's face, he just got so angry his mouth twitched a couple of times," my brother said excitedly. "These people think highly of themselves; I bet not many people dare to ignore them, how satisfying."

I ignored my brother, only watching the small compass in my hand. As soon as I got to the second floor, the needle suddenly trembled slightly. I stopped and immediately leveled it in my hand.

"What's wrong" Lin Yanhuan turned to ask.

The needle swayed a few times, pointing slantingly at the door to the study. Lin Yanhuan saw my gaze fixed on the study door and immediately said, "I'll open it for you now..."

"Stop! Don't open it!" I shouted hurriedly, and my brother swiftly pulled Lin Yanhuan back.

Behind that door, a faint black mist could be seen seeping out, and the needle on my compass in my hand pointed straight to the study.

There is something behind the door. instinctively distinguish between barren, desolate landscapes and beautiful, auspicious ones. Here, after the change in Qi flow, even animals and plants have transformed, appearing more sinister in t...
