Chapter 709: Chapter 709 Yun, Dog Meat_1

However, you have never been one to let others slaughter you!

When you and Zhao’er vaulted over the wall using the Heavenly Ascension Spell, Lei Jianhua, who was in the midst of sprinkling a mixture of incense ashes and water along the wall of the Western-style house, was taken aback and immediately asked, "Director, you’ve just entered, and you’re out already?"

"Yes. We ran into a tough one, much harder to deal with than expected."

Xiao Feng looked at you and asked, "What’s the plan for dealing with it next?"

"Don’t you have incense ashes? Mix those ashes with paint and get someone to brush it onto the base of this wall!"

"Got it!"

Ever since he was young, Xiao Feng’s favorite thing to do was to cause damage. He never did things like graffiting walls or shooting slingshots at people’s windows infrequently.

While Xiao Feng was making a call, Lei Jianhua, who still had not cleaned his hands, came over and said to you, "Director, there’s something I forgot to tell you."

"Hmm?"

"Two days ago, I distinctly felt someone trying to destroy our Order Barrier."

"Can you figure out who it was?"

Lei Jianhua shook his head, "Just now, when you entered the Western-style house, that person attempted to tamper with the Order Barrier again."

"Outside the barrier, or inside?"

"Inside. And I have a feeling that whatever it is, it’s hiding in this Western-style house."

Your eyebrows furrowed almost immediately.

This Order Barrier was meant to deal with Hongyuan, also known as Madame Qi—huh?

You suddenly pause!

Wait a moment!

Hongyuan and Madame Qi are not the same person!

So who is Hongyuan?

And what about Hei Kui?

At this moment, a dark shadow flashes through your mind. Could that dark shadow that welcomed you at the door be Hei Kui?

And Hongyuan—oh, that’s right, that’s right, it’s the red-clad female ghost who played with Madame Qi’s son, Li Ruyi!

Recalling the scene when Grandma Meng told you those words that day, you quickly realize that Grandma Meng had intentionally gone easy on you. Or rather, it was you who had been overly cautious, overcomplicating the situation when in fact Grandma Meng had no intention of putting you through hardship. From the very beginning, she was prepared to reveal Zhao’er’s identity to you!

It was laughable that from the start, you didn’t treat it as a trivial matter but laid out a grand strategy. You thought you were masterminding a grand plan, yet for someone as powerful as Grandma Meng, it was nothing more than child’s play.

As is well known, the Order Barrier cannot be destroyed by ordinary people, even by someone as profound and mysterious as Grandma Meng. After all, there are things in this world that cannot be resolved by brute force.

However, the Order Barrier was disturbed twice, and this was Grandma Meng’s subtle hint that she didn’t want you to go around in circles anymore.

Thinking of this, you face some difficulties again.

If it were about finding a person, you might resort to some special methods of the Luanfeng Pavilion; however, now that you are looking for the reincarnation of Fan Xiu, it becomes more complicated.

After all, even an all-seeing Sen Luo Eye can’t discern someone’s past life.

And at that moment, seeing you furrow your brow, the usually silent and reticent Zhao’er, out of nowhere, says, "Yun, dog meat."

Hmm?

You turn your head with a puzzled look to face Zhao’er.

At that moment, you were shocked.

But what shocked you wasn’t the content of Zhao’er’s reminder, but the fact that she had actually taken the initiative to speak up and help you solve your problem. What did this imply?

Was Zhao’er gradually becoming self-aware?

Joy filled your chest, and unable to control the excitement in your heart, you suddenly pulled Zhao’er into an embrace and kissed her on her delicate cheek!

"Zhao’er, Zhao’er, my dear Zhao’er!"

You were excited to the point of incoherence.

As for Zhao’er, the corners of her mouth slightly lifted, forming an intoxicating smile. Yes, she smiled...

Unlike her previous mechanical actions, at that moment, you truly felt her genuine laughter.

However, the sensation quickly vanished. If you hadn’t seen it with your own eyes, you might have thought it to be just your imagination!

"President, what about the dog meat?"

Dog meat?

Yes, right, dog meat!

Fan Xiu was the most famous among those in China who slaughtered dogs and sold dog meat, and his descendants had even set up a dog meat company in Pei County, openly supplying dog meat nationwide.

Since Madame Qi’s requirement for you was for Fan Xiu’s reincarnation to eat dog meat again, the range of identities for Fan Xiu’s reincarnation was now greatly narrowed!

Wei Shuxian was from Suzhou, and when the four of you in the dorm had nothing to do, you would talk about all sorts of bizarre things, including the Fan Family.

From the time of Fan Xiu, the Fan Family had two clan rules. One was public, while the other was kept in absolute secrecy, known only to the direct descendants.

The first rule was that members of the Fan Family must not enter civil service generation after generation; the second rule was even stranger: no direct descendant of the Fan Family could eat dog meat!

The people who sold dog meat actually didn’t eat it—this clan rule was indeed perverse!

But on closer contemplation, considering the Wild Dog Ridge on Netherworld Road, the purpose of this perverse clan rule became crystal clear.

With your thoughts in order, you immediately said to Lei Jianhua, "Jian Hua, find a way to lift this Order Barrier as soon as possible. We already have the simplest solution to this issue!"

Without waiting for the bewildered Lei Jianhua and Xiao Feng, you turned and got into the car with Zhao’er and said to Jin Qi, who was driving, "Little Jin, take me to the train station right away."

While Jin Qi was driving, you had already taken out your cellphone and dialed Tao Wenwen’s number.

"President."

"Wenwen, help me check—when is the next high-speed train to Pengcheng?"

Soon Tao Wenwen called back, informing you that there was a high-speed train from Yuhang to Pengcheng almost every hour, and the next train was in forty minutes. You then had her book two tickets online.

You didn’t know why, but your intuition told you that you had to bring Zhao’er with you.

And it wasn’t just this time; it seemed as if a voice was telling you from somewhere that if you really wanted Zhao’er to regain her self-awareness, you’d better keep her with you in the future. Only by being with you would Zhao’er gradually become more lucid.

At this very moment, while Jin Qi was driving you and Zhao’er to the high-speed train station in the club’s business car, about a hundred meters away from the western-style building where Madame Qi was, on the turret of a park, your unscrupulous mother stood against the wind with a shadow clothed in a black robe flickering in and out of visibility beside her. When sunlight shone down, only the faintest outline could be discerned, but when the sunlight was obscured by the clouds, a tall figure could be seen.

Your mother took a bag of sunflower seeds from her pocket and after cracking a few, asked casually, "Hey, what exactly is Grandma Meng selling in her calabash?"

"Not clear."

Tsk," your mother clicked her tongue, looking displeased as she started cracking sunflower seeds by her side.

The man in the black robe paused for a moment before asking, "So, what exactly is Zhao’er’s identity?"

"Don’t know," your mother coolly responded.
