"Your plan seems to be unfeasible."
Mangying swept a glance over the shop, and it was only now that she noticed the paper crafts under the bamboo woven chair, her phoenix eyes narrowing slightly.
Pausing for a moment, she furrowed her brow and said, "Maybe if I think about it again, is what he said exaggerated? The head regulator doesn't fear it, so why should a little old man be afraid? And why does he keep following me?"
What she said is actually the same as my previous view.
But I still have another thought lingering in the back of my mind.
Miao San may very well be true, as it is likely that they don't want to attract unnecessary troubles.
After all, dealing with regulators for retrieving a body would benefit him.
To kill someone just because he's being chased; he would then be sticking his neck into a nest of Taoists.
I even suspect that Miao San may have offended the regulators in the past, which is why he is constantly chased by Taoists as soon as he leaves the Underworld Hall.
I have told Yun Xun my deductions.
Yun Xun's eyes held uncertainty, and after a moment, she replied to me, "Miao San cannot be considered as the main part of the plan; he can only be seen as a potential variable within it."
I remained silent.
I don't necessarily have to collaborate with Miao San.
It's because I believe that Sun Dahai cannot be considered a completely ordinary person.
Indeed, I have overlooked something. In fact, many years ago, he used the twelve lives in the sky to take away my life. The eighth brother is dead and yet he was able to return, which may be connected to Sun Dahai.
Especially, as a Taoist, Sun Zhuo fundamentally cannot command the undead.
So Yun Xun's sister is actually being used by Sun Dahai?
How can an ordinary person possibly use the undead?
Sun Dahai is already difficult enough to deal with; Sun Zhuo must be even harder.
Therefore, Miao San can be considered as a form of external force in the situation.
External force can be something other than Miao San, but it's better to have it.
After my thoughts settled, I shared these ideas with Yun Xun again.
I didn't expect Yun Xun to breathe a sigh of relief. She whispered, "You're worried about being unable to deal with Sun Zhuo, but if you can get hold of Sun Dahai and lure Sun Zhuo out, I have some ways to deal with it."
My pupils narrowed slightly once more.
On reflection, it seems that Yun Xun had said something similar before.
Then, she must have some cards in her hand!
I felt slightly relieved again.
After that, under Yun Xun's urging, we left the Underworld Hall.
The sky, already dark and gloomy, plunged into night.
The theatre was closed, and there were very few passersby.
Yun Xun and I stepped a little further away, and with the corner of my eye, I saw some people entering that narrow door one after another.
I noticed a detail as well.
Even though Yun Xun hesitated before, she still doesn't want to deal with Miao San too much.
Exiting the street corner, we got into her car.
Yun Xun took me back to the high-end community's underground garage once again.
I was puzzled; even though Miao San wasn't found, we can't just directly return to the original plan, can we?
To my surprise, Yun Xun directly led me to change into another car.
After leaving the parking lot, this time the car directly drove to the street in Sun's family.
In the late night, most shops are closed.
Our car was parked on the roadside directly opposite Sun Dahai's building.
The car windows were tinted, so the outside couldn't see inside, but from the inside, everything was in full view.
The windows of the third floor of Sun's house were tightly closed, and there was no light on.
Yun Xun gazed deeply out the window for a long time before suddenly asking, "Do you think Sun Dahai still lives here?"
My pupils narrowed slightly, and I replied, "The person is definitely not here anymore, but the other arrangements may still be the same."
What I mean is simple; they are very likely to think that I will return, so they have probably still arranged ways to deal with me.
Yun Xun didn't say anything and slightly opened the car door.
From the window, I noticed two dark shadows darted out.
Soon, they leaped up to the third floor, pushed open the window, and slipped inside.
I noticed a small detail; the porcelain birdcage hanging outside the living room window was nowhere to be seen.
After a few more minutes, the shadows emerged from the window and quickly returned to the car.
It was very dark, and Yun Xun's face was lit by the faint white down, which was a bit eerie.
She shook her head, looking somewhat helpless.
"Sun Dahai isn't stupid either. I don't know whether it's his own idea or Sun Zhuo's. Taking himself as bait is obviously a one-time thing, and now that he's gone, there's no lingering evil energy inside. My sister was also taken away."
I felt an inexplicable weight on my heart...
"I will find a way." Yun Xun exhaled deeply and said.
"What method? Manager Yang?" I asked, feeling my heart still slightly sink.
It's just that I had agreed to deal with the City God's matters myself, and Yun Xun can use them to find Sun Dahai.
There is also a reason for the Huang Si to release Yun Xun's friend Shi Qing.
But I didn't expect Yun Xun to shake her head.
She suddenly took out something.
It was a bamboo woven bag.
It was slightly different from the bamboo woven bag I had received, and hers was bigger, bulging inside. I didn't know what it contained.
The next moment, Yun Xun opened the bag.
From inside, a more delicate bamboo mouse appeared, but its red eyes looked somewhat odd.
There was a small piece of cloth tied around its neck.
It looked like a piece of clothing fabric.
Suddenly, the bamboo mouse scampered onto Yun Xun's shoulder.
Its pointed bamboo beak bit into Yun Xun's earlobe.
Yun Xun's body trembled slightly, as if she was enduring severe pain.
A few seconds later, the bamboo mouse turned completely black, and a faint layer of blood light was added to it.
Yun Xun's aura weakened slightly, as if her vitality and essence had diminished.
Next, the bamboo mouse darted into Yun Xun's collar.
Yun Xun started the engine and drove away.
I twitched my eyelids, and a sense of gloom lingered in my heart.
It seems that Yun Xun's diojutsu isn't as simple as it seems...
It seems like a bamboo mouse can be driven with just a little blood, but those should be the most ordinary ones.
The one she's using now comes at a much greater cost.
The car kept wandering in the narrow streets of Qin Yang.
It drove all night long.
The next morning, the sunlight broke through the darkness, shining into the car.
Yun Xun's delicate face turned even paler, looking like she had lost too much blood.
She clenched her lower lip and her eyes were filled with sheer reluctance.
The car came to a stop.
"Can't find it." Yun Xun's face looked extremely worried.
"It's true that my sister ate Sun Zhuo's sleeping potion and told him everything!" Her lips were bleeding from biting them.
Even though I was puzzled, this concerned Yun Xun's secret of her art, and I didn't ask any more questions.
The next moment, Yun Xun turned to me and said, "I have no choice but to go find Manager Yang and the leader. The bamboo mouse I used earlier was infused with the ashes of a dead person and trapped inside the yin bamboo. Inside it were even closer to ghosts' lingering souls. It was also tied around Sun Dahai's clothes, so I should be able to find him."
"But I didn't expect... It took me around the whole city, and it was clearly that they knew this trick and deliberately set me up!"
Yun Xun became more angry, her breathing uneven.
I immediately took out a small porcelain bottle and handed it to Yun Xun.
"What is it for?" Yun Xun's eyebrows furrowed.
