The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion

Chapter 313: "Being Possessed"



Chapter 313: "Being Possessed"

Dark, cramped, and dilapidated

30 minutes later, when Sun Shaozong got off the carriage, he faced a decadent small alley, especially the tiles on the wall that protruded out long, further creating a sense of oppression that People have to bow their heads under low eaves.

If one were to say that Lady Madao was quite famous, why did she live in such a place?

My Lord, you might see that this place is so inconspicuous.

Zhou Rui leaned forward and explained, "Actually, the entire alley has already been occupied by Godmother Ma... Ahhh~

He raised his hand and slapped himself lightly on the mouth before continuing, "It's already been bought by that bitchy Lady Madao. The one inside is called a unique cave.

As he spoke, Zhou Rui lowered his voice slightly and said, "I also heard that this old witch bought seven or eight young and beautiful people while there was a flood last year, just like a happy and carefree fairy every day.

With his description, Sun Shaozong's mind suddenly conjured up some unattractive images.

Eww~

This disgusting sensation!

Sun Shaozong shuddered and quickly expelled the image from his mind. Then, with a big wave of his hand, he said, "Let's go; follow the instructions I gave you before.

Zhou Rui also followed suit, and then two servants got into the alley first.

Sun Shaozong moved forward and Zhou Rui followed closely. They were then followed by five or six healthy servants carrying whistles.

As Zhou Rui had said before, all the gates of the courtyard had been blocked along the way, except for the two vermilion-painted gates at the end of the alley, which fortunately maintained their original appearance.

Seeing the door in front of him, Sun Shaozong led Zhou Rui and others to stop. He first asked the two servants to come forward and knock on the door, shouting, "Godmother, Godmother Ma! We are from the Rongguo Mansion, and we don't know what evil has happened to Second Brother Bao. We want you to come over and take a look.

After shouting, there was no sound inside. The two servants were waiting to shout again, but Sun Shaozong had already realized that something was wrong. He immediately ran over and kicked his foot in the middle of the two gates!

Bang!

The thick bolt of the bowl broke in response, and the door parted from side to side like a piece of paper. With a loud bang, it inserted into the wall, causing even the gatehouse to shake and drop countless tiles.

Before the dust settled, Sun Shaozong took a step and rushed in. Standing on the steps, he looked around and saw a long corridor next to the outer wall. Inside, there were twenty or thirty oil lamps of various sizes, but no one was visible.

Sun Shaozong carefully looked at the courtyard wall again and saw that it was level with the front and back of the gatehouse. His heart immediately became clear and he quickly called out to Zhou Rui and ordered, "Where is the back door in this house? Take me over quickly.

Just as he was walking in that alley, he felt a bit uneasy. At first, he thought it was because the space was too cramped, but now he thought that it was actually because someone was secretly spying on them!

And the person who spied was hidden in the alley of this courtyard wall!

It was estimated that Lady Madao created such a trap to eavesdrop on their words and pretend to be a mystery in front of the guests. But she coincidentally discovered the alarm in advance.

That Lady Madao was guilty in her heart. When she heard that people from Rongguo Mansion came to her door with sticks, she naturally knew that the conspiracy for wealth and life had been exposed. She obviously wouldnt stop running at this time.

So when Sun Shaozong discovered that the situation was not right, he immediately asked where the back door was.

To be on the safe side, he left four people guarding the main entrance to avoid being misled by Lady Madao.

Then, two domestic servants who frequently traveled here led Sun Shaozong and Zhou Rui straight to the back door. Halfway, from afar, they saw several fat and pink young men carrying delicate gold and silver, surrounded by an old woman with white hair and skin, also rushing towards the back door.

Stop!

When Zhou Rui saw the old lady, he couldn't help but shout and say, "You old witch harmed our Second Madam, and you still dare to run?

With just this one voice, those young people were frightened into headless flies, and they tried to flee in all directions.

Don't panic, children.

It was Lady Madao who stayed calm in the face of danger. While shouting to stabilize people's hearts, she took out a small oil lamp from her sleeve and shook it a few times at Sun Shaozong and others, chanting words. She suddenly opened her mouth and sprayed.

Pu~

The small oil lamp immediately burst out with a blazing blue flame the size of a bamboo hat!

Cough, cough, cough

Lady Madao coughed fiercely a few times and then said in a gloomy voice, "Who dares to chase after me again? Dont blame me for using this soul-devouring heavenly fire to burn your soul to death and you will never be allowed to be reborn forever.

Seeing her exert her magic, Zhou Rui and the two servants leading the way showed some timidity; they hesitated step by step and didnt dare to move forward.

The young people across the street were full of morale, shouting slogans such as The power of the witch is boundless and Forcefully sweep away the ashes and smoke, and then rushing towards the back door with Lady Madao.

They were intimidated so easily?

Sun Shaozong saw this scene, but his heart was speechless and tense. It was clear to him that she was using rosin foam or something, performing a variety show of spitting fireballs. The old woman clearly messed up, coughing uncontrollably, even her eyebrows and hair were burning!

Just like this, Zhou Rui and others actually fell for it.

Forget it~

Anyway, the person had already been found, and he didn't expect Zhou Rui and others to help, so he quickly rushed up alone.

Hes chasing us... catching up

Old Immortal quickly cast the spell.

This thief is so bold.

As Sun Shazong got closer and closer, the young men panicked again. This time, even Lady Madao lost her composure. In a panic, she aimed the lantern at Sun Shaozong and was about to bluster a few words, but Sun Shaozong refused to listen to her nonsense.

Arriving close, he lifted his arm and rolled his sleeve around, sweeping the small lantern out of the old witchs hand. With the opportunity, he pushed the matron around and stepped on her sandy dog-like belly, sneering, "Say, where is the antidote hidden?"

Before Lady Madao could speak, he warned without looking up, "Everyone stands still; otherwise, don't blame me for hurting her.

The young men hesitated for a moment, and Zhou Rui and the others regained their composure, followed suit, and rushed them to a place under strict supervision.

At this moment, Lady Madao turned her cross-eyed eyes a few times and said in a sharp voice, "Only I can create the antidote... Ouch! Spare my life, My Lord!

Sun Shaozong exerted a strong force under his feet and she let out a few shouts like a toad when he stepped on her. He then sneered, "If you want to lie in front of me, Sun Shaozong, you may still think about it! I suggest you better understand before you speak, otherwise..."

Upon hearing the words Sun Shaozong, Lady Madao's thoughts in her heart turned into bubbles. Her withered lips trembled a few times, and she finally confessed honestly, Theres... There's no cure for this being possessed spell.

Sun Shaozong's eyebrows stood up and he scolded, "Even at this moment, you still dare to pretend to be mystifying with me.

No, no, no.

Lady Madao quickly explained, "The name of this poison is being possessed! It was originally refined by me and Master Fuyun for cultivation, but who would have thought it was some deadly thing.

Listening to Lady Madao's words, it turned out that although she was a deceptive trickster, she also longed for the day when she could truly cultivate some magic. Especially in recent years, she has become successful and even more eager for immortal magic that could last forever.

As the saying goes Birds of the same feather flock together. Last year, she met the classic Fuyun Taoist priest of Xuanzhen Temple, both of whom were obsessed with becoming immortals and achieving the Tao. They worked together to build an alchemy furnace, hoping to refine the legendary ascending elixir.

As a result, the silver flowed into it like flowing water and unexpectedly produced a strange set of poisons. However, after smelling the concoction, the old Taoist Fuyun and the two pyrotechnic boys went crazy and refused to recognize anybody. They were sent back to the Xuanzhen Temple and died in a few days.

Lady Madao narrowly escaped the disaster because she was in charge of logistics.

Initially, Lady Maao was terrified to come into contact with the poison that the Old Fuyun Taoist had refined. However, over time, she learned that the poison would not release any aroma if it was kept in a cool environment. Only when it was heated to a certain temperature would it release the sweet aroma that could drive people crazy.

Just as Lady Madao, who was both an alchemist and a beauty buyer, was struggling to make ends meet, she began to have a twisted mind.

So she designed a set of Five Ghost Nightmare Magic, which utilized the gradual increase in temperature when a person slept on a mattress, thereby activating the mechanism of the poison, specifically seeking wealth and killing in that wealthy household.

Although she was familiar with the use of this poison, she didnt know the reason why it caused people to go crazy, let alone how to treat it.
