Bang bang!
The saber light streaked across the night sky. Gu Zhou's saber was faster than the previous one. At first glance, it looked like he had three heads and six arms. He slashed five or six times at the same time, forming a waterfall of saber light.
Ever since Gu Zhou started practicing martial arts, this was the first time he had experienced such an intense battle. During the battle, he slowly integrated everything he had learned.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The sound of metal clashing was deafening. The head of the guards was bleeding from all seven apertures of his body. Blood flowed from the corners of his mouth and the corners of his eyes. It was as red as blood, and it looked ferocious and terrifying in the night.
Looking at his hands, they were already torn apart. They were a mess of flesh and blood, so much so that the iron rod was covered in blood.
However, he had lost his sense of pain after being possessed, so he continued to fight Gu Zhou without feeling any pain.
Gu Zhou, however, was getting more and more comfortable. He let out a long whistle and said in a carefree manner,"I have to thank you for sparring with me! It was not easy to find a target that was not afraid of death!”
His blade was faster and faster.
Each slash was heavier than the last.
The saber aura was fierce and overbearing, like a landslide and tsunami, giving people an irresistible sense of suffocation.
The people of Mao Manor remembered to eat but not to fight. They seemed to have ignored Gu Zhou's warning. They stood in the distance and watched. When they saw Gu Zhou beating up the head of the guards, fear appeared on their faces.
"Don't come over. Stay far away. He's no longer human. He's been possessed by something dirty!”
Gu Zhou still had the energy to remind him.
Clang!
The head guard could no longer hold the iron rod. The bones in his right arm were broken, and the white bone fragments pierced through his skin. The iron rod was sent flying with a whistling sound.
"What do you have to resist me!"
Gu Zhou laughed loudly. With lightning speed, he placed two palms on the guard's chest. The blazing masculine Qi surged into his body.
Kacha!
The head guard's chest caved in, and he spat out a large mouthful of blood. He flew five to six meters away and landed heavily, sending a large amount of dust flying.
While he was flying, the paper figurine broke away from him.
Fortunately, the onlookers were far enough away. The paper figurine could not possess anyone in a short period of time. Gu Zhou caught up and slashed at it a few times.
Ah!
One of the paper man's arms was chopped off. It let out a shrill scream and continued to sweep toward the crowd.
Chi chi chi!
This time, Gu Zhou did not let it escape. He cut a few large wounds on its body.
Through the large cut, one could see that the inside of the paper man's body was empty. There were no internal organs.
Bang!
The blade light swept across, and the paper man's legs were cut off at the same time, falling heavily to the ground.
Bang!
Gu Zhou stepped on his head. Although the paper figurine, which had lost its arms and legs, struggled with all its might and made a piercing sound like a sharp object scraping against glass, it was useless.
"What the hell are you?"
Gu Zhou leaned over and stared at the paper figurine that had been chopped into pieces by him. Then, he stepped on it forcefully.
Bang!
The paper man's head was crushed, but it was still moving.
"Give me a torch."
Gu Zhou said to the crowd.
Everyone looked at each other. Finally, one of them walked out trembling and handed the torch to him.
Looking at the paper figurine being burned to ashes and seeing the Essence increase from 3 to 15, Gu Zhou revealed a satisfied smile and looked at the crowd."Is there anyone in charge among you?"
" I…I am…the butler…"
A man in his forties walked out and looked at Gu Zhou. His face was pale and filled with fear. He did not dare to look him in the eye.
"Those who were injured were possessed by something dirty. You all saw it too. It was this thing. I had no choice but to injure them and force the dirty thing out.”
"Right, that person's injuries are not shallow. We have to hurry, or his life might be in danger.”
Gu Zhou pointed at the unconscious guard.
At this moment, Da Niu rushed over with Ninth Uncle following behind him. Looking at the paper figurine that had been burned to ashes, Ninth Uncle revealed a look of admiration."Your martial arts strength is already rare in the world.”
"Martial Uncle, you didn't notice the strangeness of the Mao Mansion, did you?”
Gu Zhou went straight to the point.
Uncle Nine smiled mysteriously." You killed a dirty thing tonight. I didn't stay idle tonight either."”
As expected.
Gu Zhou revealed a look of understanding. He had noticed that something was wrong with Old Master Mao, so how could a veteran like Ninth Uncle not notice it? He just kept his expression calm.
"Martial Uncle, what do you plan to do?"
"Take your time."
" I've already set up an array to seal off the Mao Mansion," Ninth Uncle said calmly." No one can leave within 10 hours."”
"That's good."
"Uncle, did you notice anything wrong with Master Mao?" Gu Zhou nodded and asked again.”
Ninth Uncle frowned and thought for a moment. He shook his head and said,"There are too many strange spells in the world. No one can know all of them. I don't know what his goal is either, but I guess his daughter's resentment has something to do with him.”
"Then why did you…"
"Why do you still want to help him bury his daughter?”
" Putting everything aside," Ninth Uncle said calmly," it's a fact that his daughter has a lot of resentment. With such a lot of resentment, if she isn't buried, there's a high chance that she will turn into a zombie or a malicious ghost. Now that she has been successfully buried, I'll add insurance to ensure that she can only sleep peacefully underground.”
"Let's go and talk to Old Master Mao. He can't run away anymore. I want to see what other methods he has.”
…………
Mao's mansion was very big, with hundreds of rooms. Master Mao's wife died early, and he had no second wife, concubines, or sons. He only had two daughters, but they were both dead.
He lived alone in a large courtyard. With the guidance of the servants, Gu Zhou and the others found him easily.
There were two big red lanterns hanging on the door of the courtyard.
"The three of you, Old Master is already waiting for you.”
An old woman carrying a white lantern walked out and said to them.
The old woman was so old that her back was bent 90 degrees. The wrinkles on her face were like the bark of a thousand-year-old tree. They were layered and could kill mosquitoes.
"Lead the way."
Gu Zhou said calmly.
"Please follow me."
The old woman turned around expressionlessly and silently led the way with a white lantern in her hand.
Bang!
After taking a few steps, the old woman bumped into a pillar. She held her head and continued forward.
Da Niu's eyes widened.
Gu Zhou could not help but remind him,"Your head is about to fall off."”
"Oh, it's nothing."
The old woman pulled off the swaying head and put it back on her neck. Then, she said,""I'm sorry for scaring everyone. I'm old and my head will fall off easily. But it's okay.”
