Chapter 145 Disguise
Jing Han looked at Yun Yi, after all, she was the one who crippled this person.
Yunyi walked over and kicked Huo Qingyuan: "Say what you have to say."
"I was wrong, please forgive me, Grandma. I will follow your lead from now on. I was really wrong. I will get rid of that Taoist priest as soon as I get out. I..." Huo Qingyuan knew that if he couldn't get out, his life would be over. He didn't want to die.
“It’s too late.” Yunyi sighed. “You killed seventeen innocent girls before. I originally thought you could atone for your crimes and I could help them pass on to the afterlife. But you are still unrepentant. I don’t have the energy to keep up with you. It’s better to end it once and for all.”
"No, I really know I was wrong, please, please..." Huo Qingyuan's body was unable to move, he could only keep shaking his head as if kowtowing.
"Then remember to be a good person in your next life. Also, your sins are too heavy, even your wife can't be reincarnated. Now, all I can do is let your wife be free from your burdens and be a good person in her next life. As for you... as long as you sincerely wash away the sins of this life, you can still be husband and wife in your next life."
Huo Qingyuan stared blankly at Yun Yi, his expression gradually calming down. Finally, he stammered, "Can we really... be husband and wife in the next life?"
"Of course, I have the ability to see ghosts. Your wife... is called Wang Xin'er, right? She's watching you right now. If you promise to atone for your sins, she won't have to be trapped in this coffin and can go to line up to be reincarnated. If you hurry up, you might be able to catch up with her."
"Alright, I'll atone for my sins." Huo Qingyuan nodded slowly, then collapsed to the ground.
Jing Han stared at all this in astonishment, and even felt a chill run down his spine. Was there really a female ghost here?
"Then tell me about your situation."
"Okay." Huo Qingyuan nodded, and then began to speak.
"That sounds so good." Yunyi secretly nudged Jinghan.
Jing Han quickly composed himself and carefully noted down what the other person said.
Huo Qingyuan was almost thirty years old after all. He passed the martial arts exam at the age of eighteen and later joined the army. He started as a private and after ten years of hard work, he finally reached his current position. So, he had experienced a lot.
He talked for a full hour before stopping, but his mouth was completely dry.
Yunyi kindly fed him a glass of water and then said, "Rest now. If you have any further questions, I'll ask you again."
Huo Qingyuan then closed his eyes and collapsed to the ground.
After leaving the secret room, Jing Han looked at Yun Yi, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopping himself.
"You remembered everything he just said, didn't you?" Yunyi glanced at him sideways.
Jing Han nodded hurriedly: "My memory works pretty well, I've memorized it all." Then he looked hesitant again.
“Just say what you want to say. Even though it’s dark here, I can still see your expression, like you can’t poop. It’s really uncomfortable to look at.”
Jing Han's lips twitched: "Um, you really can communicate with ghosts and gods?"
"No." Yun Yi shook her head. Although there are some supernatural abilities in this era, such as divination, feng shui, and fortune telling, these are all things left by our ancestors and cannot be erased in any era. However, this is a pure yang world, which is not suitable for summoning souls or catching ghosts.
"Then you can't perform a ritual to help them pass on to the afterlife, can you?"
"Well, don't those highly accomplished monks and Taoist priests also hold ceremonies? It's just for peace of mind."
Jing Han smirked: "So you're just fooling him, aren't you? But why does he listen to you so much?"
Have you ever heard of hypnosis?
"Forehead……"
"Is there anything else you'd like to ask?"
Jing Han opened his mouth slightly, feeling that he had many questions, but at this moment he suddenly felt that he did not know where to start.
"Since there are no more questions, from now on you are Huo Qingyuan. You've probably made arrangements in Black City as well. Don't worry, I'll go check it out in a few days. The gangs there will continue to develop eventually."
"Okay." Jing Han felt that he had no choice but to nod.
"By the way, don't kill that Illusion Star Taoist. Arrest him and interrogate him. I feel like there's a lot going on behind him."
"clear."
"Then I'm leaving. If anything comes up, send a message to the Yun residence." Yun Yi waved her hand, but stopped after taking two steps. "Huo Qingyuan's two guards, Mo Feng and Mo Han, have been with him since they were young. If you can subdue them, then do so. If not, I suggest..." She didn't finish her sentence, but Jing Han should understand.
Jing Han nodded: "Don't worry, since I dared to take on these tasks, I naturally know what to do."
"I'm leaving," Yunyi said, jumping straight out of the back window.
As soon as he landed, he came face to face with Mo Feng.
Mo Feng was stunned. He was about to make a move when his eyes widened instantly. His raised hand froze in mid-air. How could a master like him have his pressure points struck like that?
Yunyi picked him up and threw him into the house: "This is Mo Feng, Huo Qingyuan's confidant. You can deal with him as you see fit." After saying that, she left without waiting for Jing Han's reaction.
Jing Han had already ordered the lamps to be lit, and there was now another person in the room, none other than Lan Yi, one of Jing Han's subordinates.
“Mo Feng, you’ve done a lot of heinous things with Huo Qingyuan, so it’s not your fault that you’re dying here today.” Jing Han’s gaze at Mo Feng was chilling. “However, I will fulfill your bond as master and servant and let you die together.” He gestured as he spoke.
Lan Yi went over and immediately crippled Mo Feng's martial arts, then severed his tendons before throwing him into the secret room.
When Lan came out, she had already transformed into Mo Feng's appearance.
"Your disguise skills are still not very good." Jing Han glanced at Lan Yi. "If you have the chance in the future, you can learn from her."
"Yes." Lan Yi replied. He was originally skilled in disguise, but after seeing his master's face, he knew that he was far inferior to that person.
“Fortunately, you’re a guard, so you don’t need to say much, and the chances of being exposed are slim.” Jing Han was still quite at ease. “Now, let’s familiarize ourselves with the entire mansion.”
So the two of them started wandering around the mansion in the middle of the night.
The Huo mansion was very large, with seven courtyards in total, but it seemed quite empty because there was no mistress of the house.
Everyone who saw them bowed respectfully.
He quickly figured out the layout of the entire mansion before returning to his study.
Huo Qingyuan spent most of his time in the military camp, and when he returned to his residence, he spent the most time in his study, while his bedroom was practically just for show.
The next morning, the housekeeper brought breakfast over with some people.
"Go and invite the Taoist priest over." After eating and drinking his fill, Jing Han put down his chopsticks. He had been investigating that old Taoist priest for a while and he was indeed no good. However, he had been staying at the Huo residence and had no chance to deal with him. Now, however, he could do so openly.
