Su Nan nodded.
Seeing this, the old man immediately opened the gate, saying, “Young Master, please come in. I will take you to meet my master.”
Su Nan followed the old man into the courtyard.
The mansion of Li Caizhu is large, but due to the lack of servants, it appears lifeless.
The old man led Su Nan to a lobby, saying, “Young Master, please wait here. I will go inform the master.”
Then he turned around and left, leaving Su Nan alone and waiting.
Soon, a slightly overweight man in his sixties came hurrying over. Upon seeing Su Nan, his eyes lit up with joy, “Young Master, are you going to help my Li Mansion get rid of the demon?”
Su Nan cut to the chase, “What exactly happened at your mansion?”
“The story begins three years ago,” Li Caizhu explained the situation from beginning to end.
What he said was not far from what the old tea-seller had told him. Su Nan silently listened and asked directly: “With these events happening, why haven’t you left?”
“It’s not that I don’t want to move, but I can’t. The nearest town to White Water Town is thirty li away. We older folks don’t have the energy to travel that far. If we encounter a demon on the way, we will certainly perish.” Li Caizhu sighed.
Su Nan nodded and continued, “Have there been any recent disappearances?”
Li Caizhu shook his head, “Not recently.”
“No?” Su Nan frowned.
The old woman had told him that several players had disappeared after entering Li Caizhu’s house over ten days ago. This was inconsistent with what Li Caizhu was saying.
Something was off.
Su Nan’s expression turned solemn, “Old Man Li, I heard before coming here that several young men around my age visited this place over ten days ago, and they disappeared afterwards.”
Li Caizhu was taken aback, then forced a bitter smile, “Young Master, you might not know, but indeed, five young men came ten days ago. However, they found nothing after searching my mansion, and then they left.”
“They left?” Su Nan was dubious.
Li Caizhu continued, “As you may have noticed, that demon is only interested in young people. There are no young people left in my mansion due to the torment of the demon. Even the youngest servant is already fifty-two.”
“The last person went missing a month ago.”
“A month ago, I took a concubine. But she went missing the very next morning.”
Su Nan asked, “Do you know where the concubine disappeared? Could you take me to see it?”
“Of course, please follow me.”
Li Caizhu led the way and soon arrived at a room in the back courtyard.
This was once Li Caizhu’s bridal chamber. It was very festively furnished, but since the disappearance of the concubine, he had not stayed here anymore.
Su Nan looked around briefly and found nothing unusual.
Reluctantly, he began his foreknowledge.
He hoped that he could find something different in his foreknowledge.
[One month ago, Li Caizhu’s concubine went missing in this room. You suspect she was taken by a demon and want to find any clues she left in the room.]
[You came to the bed to look around and found a rusty pair of scissors under the pillow.]
[The scissors were ordinary, nothing special. You went over to the dressing table not far away to look.]
[Two minutes later, you’d almost thoroughly searched the room without finding anything unusual.]
[You were unwilling to give up and searched again, but still found nothing.]contemporary romance
[You realize that if you want to find the demon, you may only have a chance at night.]
Foreknowledge ended, yielding nothing.
Su Nan sighed, had to bid farewell to Li Caizhu and agreed to come back at night.
He didn’t have the ability to find the demon. If the demon hid and refused to come out, he couldn’t do anything about it.
“Young Master, this is a token of my sincerity. If you can get rid of the demon for my Li Mansion, I will certainly offer you a generous reward.”
Before leaving, Li Caizhu, seemingly afraid that Su Nan might not come back at night, quickly took out something from his body.
They were pieces of broken silver of different sizes.
“The world actually uses silver as currency.” Su Nan was surprised.
After a thought, he took it anyway.
It would definitely come in handy in the future.
Leaving Li Caizhu’s house, Su Nan went straight to the Earth God Temple to the south.
The Earth God Temple was not in White Water Town, but about a li outside the town.
Su Nan searched for about ten minutes and finally saw a not-so-large building.
Due to years of neglect, the Earth God Temple was in ruins and surrounded by weeds as tall as a person.
Su Nan had no intention of entering, standing a hundred meters away from the Earth God Temple, he began his foreknowledge.
[You came to the abandoned Earth God Temple outside White Water Town. It used to be prosperous with incense and pilgrims, but the arrival of a demon had completely changed it.]
[Entering the temple, you immediately noticed a huge statue placed on a square stone platform about one person high. Covered in dust due to long term neglect, the stone statue.]
[You searched the Earth God Temple. The temple had been abandoned for over twenty years, but there was no sign of birds or animals. Apart from that, there was nothing special.]
[One minute later, you carefully searched the entire Earth God Temple without finding anything peculiar, as if it was just an ordinary Earth God Temple.]
[You were about to give up, then your Qi Luck kicked in. Suddenly, you noticed that one side of the huge rock under the statue was uneven, different from the other sides. It seemed to have been repaired at a later stage..]
