Lu Sheng thought for a while and took the initiative to approach the person closest to him.

"This brother." He flashed an extra ingot of silver in his hand.

"What are you doing?" The Jianghu man stared at him warily.

"I just want to ask, why are there so many people here looking for things?"

Lu Sheng looked puzzled.

"Why are you here if you don't know? Go aside!"

This man looked like he was looking at a fool.

When Lu Sheng saw him turning around to leave, he took out another ingot of gold from his pocket, put it together and handed it over.

This gold actually made the man stop, and he weighed the gold. He looked at Lu Sheng's attire again, and it didn't look like he was here to compete with him for food, so he said.

"You don't know why you came here to join in the fun?

When we came here, we all heard that there were many experts who exterminated spirits last night, but half of them were killed, and a strange treasure was born. Then everything was in chaos. One of the experts ran away with the treasure, and the rest of the people chased after him. This place is also in ruins.

We people all come to the fields to drink soup and make a living. "

"Make money from dead people?" Lu Sheng understood. These people came here specifically to dig out the corpse's belongings.

He didn't know what happened last night. But it must be no small matter to attract so many people and so many forces to come together.

"These people all know some inside stories. Like Duanmu Wan and Yan Kai, the purpose of coming to Jiulian City is unknown. They may be on the same level as the demons and ghosts." Lu Sheng thought in his heart, let go of the man, and After walking around a few times, I saw black lumps that looked like molten steel in several places.

He didn't stay much and quickly rushed back towards Lu Mansion.

When I returned to Lu Mansion, as soon as I walked through the gate, a servant came to inform me.

"My eldest son, Miss Duanmu is here again. She is waiting for you in the living room." The boy whispered.

Duanmuwan is here? Lu Sheng's heart trembled as he recalled what Duanmu Wan had said when he saw her before. He cheered up and strode towards the living room.

Entering the living room, Lu Sheng immediately saw Duanmuwan's iconic figure and attire. In this era, there are not many women who dare to dress up like Duanmu Wan, even in brothels and Liuxiang.

She was sitting on a wooden chair, holding a white porcelain tea cup in her hand and gently drinking tea. She put the bamboo hat aside and untied her gauze, revealing the tight black outfit underneath.

It's just that the outfit is too tight against her body, completely outlining every inch of her body, like a second layer of skin. Especially the breasts, buttocks and legs, it's like being naked, almost like being naked. The maids and guards around him couldn't help but dare not look directly at him, and their faces turned red.

"Miss Duanmu, I haven't seen you for a long time. I wonder what you meant by what you said before?" Lu Sheng went straight to the point when they met. He waved the people around him to leave, and stared at Duanmu Wan with piercing eyes, not shying away from the other person's sexy attire.

Duanmuwan smiled and looked up at Lu Sheng with a strange look. He smiled and said, "Young Master Sheng is fine. I'm glad to have survived this catastrophe. You don't have to worry now, everything is much safer."

"What do you mean, girl?" Lu Sheng narrowed his eyes. It was obvious that Duanmu Wan knew a lot of inside information.

"It's not interesting." Duanmuwan put down the teacup, clapped lightly, and stood up.

Duanmu Wan smiled and said: "Since everyone around has evacuated and the young master did not die in the previous disaster, he is qualified to know some inside stories."

"Please give me some advice, girl." Lu Sheng raised his spirits, but he was afraid that the other party would not tell him.

Duanmu Wan held her chin with one hand and smiled: "Since Mr. Sheng is not dead, he must have come into contact with the forces of demons and ghosts. Those dirty and sinister things are not so easy to get rid of. They cannot be removed without special means. He survived their pursuit.”

"Young lady, can you tell me in more detail, where do these evil spirits come from and what is their purpose?" Lu Sheng asked in a deep voice.

"Don't be anxious." Duanmuwan chuckled, slowly walked around to Lu Sheng's side, stretched out a hand to gently touch his cheek.

Her movements were very light and gentle, like the gentle brushing of a thin veil. You couldn't even notice it if you didn't pay close attention. It was itchy and crispy. Like a tease between lovers.

"Miss Duanmu, you haven't told me the inside story yet." Lu Sheng stepped back slightly to avoid the other party's teasing. "If there is anything you need to hide, you don't have to take the initiative to come to me. I think the girl has her own purpose, right?"

Duanmuwan suddenly burst into laughter, and the flower branches trembled.

puff!

"Master Sheng is indeed an unusual person. When people first saw you, they liked you a little.

At that time, I placed some bets on you with the idea of ​​giving it a try, but I didn't expect that the young master would actually survive. This is really a surprise, but you didn’t know that after knowing that you survived, even if the little girl is fighting between life and death, she will still remember you in her heart." Duanmu Wan spoke with a concubine-like tone, and her tone seemed to be able to turn a tough man off. Melt into a puddle of water.

Lu Sheng suppressed his anger and let her stay close to him, still calmly saying: "Did the girl fall in love with this young master?"

"Who knows?" Duanmu Wan smiled and took a step back, turning around in a circle.

"The slave family likes the young master very much. When I see you, I think of the one I loved most in the past. Unfortunately, he died too early, and the whole family's admiration has nowhere to go." At this point, Duanmuwan's almond-shaped eyes There was a flash of loneliness and shame.

Lu Sheng was sure that he had read it correctly. He was just ashamed of himself. That special emotion that only people with low self-esteem would have was actually revealed in the mysterious Duanmu Wan in front of him. Obviously, the identity, strength and status of the person she mentioned was definitely not simple.

"Now, Miss Duanmu, can you tell me, what exactly are monsters? Who are you?"

Duanmuwan smiled, gently walked around behind Lu Sheng, and pressed her whole body against his back.

"When I see you, young master, I can't help but imagine it's him. Alas," she sighed, with deep sadness.

"Young master, do you know that in today's world, where demons are rampant and ghosts are frequent, why can most people in the world still live peacefully and well? Just like your ordinary life for more than ten years, master."

Lu Sheng's eyes narrowed. "Is someone protecting you?"

"Yes. Even if it's protection, the world is so difficult, but we should always give people a little hope and comfort."

"This world can be said to be a world of two major forces."

"What two major forces?"

"Monster, He Family." Duanmuwan simply raised two fingers. "Monsters are monsters such as demons and ghosts that the young master has come into contact with. And the aristocratic family is like me, like Yan Kai, who are born with the power to remove spirits."

"You are born with power? Don't you get it through practice?" Lu Sheng's heart was filled with fear, and he was a little lucky.

"No" Duanmu Wanjiao smiled, "I know the young master still has some hope, but unfortunately, there is no cultivation method in this world that can fight against demons, and our family does not need any method, nor does it have any skills.

What we practice is just to develop and use the special power inherent in our bodies, and use this power to fight against demons. And ordinary people can always be ordinary people."

Lu Sheng was silent.

This was the last thing he wanted to hear.

Duanmuwan continued: "There are two types of ruling classes in the world, one is the demons, and the other is the aristocratic family. Our powers are all born with us, far beyond those of ordinary people. The gap is very, very big. We are born with it. The power, even the weakest among them, is absolutely unimaginable to a mortal."

"I don't believe that ordinary people don't have a chance." Lu Sheng shook his head slowly.

"Young master is so cute." Duanmu Wanjiao smiled, "You have to understand that in this world, there is no aura or fairy spirit like in novels. There is nothing in the air we live in. The only thing we can rely on is ourselves. .

Warriors practice internal energy by eating food. The strength and ability that our family is born with is deep in our blood. The gap is something we are born with.”

She gently let go of Lu Sheng, walked to his side, and gently touched his strong chest with her delicate hands.

"There were two major forces in Jiulian City who were competing for a valuable treasure. One of the two major forces is a powerful force that controls demons and ghosts. It is also the force that chose the Xu family and your Lu family to sacrifice."

"May I ask, girl, what is the name of this force?" Lu Sheng suddenly became energetic. Knowing that this was a key point, he digested the news he had heard before and asked quickly.

"Juanren Mansion." Duanmuwan gently placed Zhen's head on Lu Sheng's arm, "Their name is Juanren Mansion, and they are an old force that has been entrenched here for many, many years.

They controlled a lot of ghosts, and they had previously selected the master of the Lu family as the target of sacrifice. The birth of such a precious treasure requires many sacrifices, many, many."

"So, if my father is not dead, will they still come looking for us?" Lu Sheng asked.

"Hehehe, if they come to you, Master, just come to Wan'er~~~" Duanmu Wan suddenly smiled sweetly.

"Miss Duanmu is joking." Lu Sheng broke away from her touch and turned to face her. "I wonder if the girl has any other internal skills and mental methods that are not health-preserving skills."

He didn't know whether what Duanmu Wan said was true or not, but regardless of whether it was true or not, as long as he could get new and stronger internal energy from this woman, the meeting with her would be worth it.

"Internal skills and mental methods? Is that kind of thing useful?" Duanmu Wan straightened her hair, "What's so fun about internal skills?"

"Miss Wan'er is joking, what price does it cost me to get that kind of inner strength and mental skills? Please let me know clearly." Lu Sheng said solemnly.
