I survive in the weird Liaozhai

Chapter 77 On the eve of the war

Wang Shouye thought for a moment before he bowed to the young man in front of him and said

"Master Nian'an, you don't know that the Li family is the most aristocratic family in Anyang County, far beyond the reach of my Wang family.

If the Taoist priest wants to deal with the Li family, alas! My Wang family is limited in ability and cannot help much.

But if the Taoist priest needs manpower and supplies, I will arrange them immediately and try my best to prepare them for him."

Ha! The head of the Wang family is really good at calculating. He wants to know the specific situation of the Li family, and he also wants himself to be the first to take the lead.

But it's okay. He didn't expect that the head of the Wang family would fight the Li family openly based on his speculation without evidence. Having manpower and material support would be enough to achieve his goal.

"Then I'll have to trouble Patriarch Wang to prepare enough kerosene for me, and twenty skilled hands and feet. I may need them tonight."

Upon hearing this, Wang Shouye's face changed immediately, and he immediately realized what the young man in front of him wanted to do.

But he didn't say much. After adjusting his chaotic mood for a moment, he smiled and said to Gu Nian'an:

"Master Nian'an, don't worry. These are just small matters. I will prepare everything for you before dark."

"Then I'll trouble Patriarch Wang. By the way, Patriarch Wang, do you know the situation of the night patrols in the city?"

Wang Shouye thought for a moment before explaining.

"There are mainly two groups of people patrolling at night, one from the city patrol officer and the other from ordinary city guards. But I think with Taoist Nian An's skills, we don't have to worry about them."

In Wang Shouye's opinion, a tough guy who is capable of fighting ghosts head-on is not someone that those drunkards in the government can afford to provoke.

"Master Wang, in your opinion, which of the two groups of people, the patrol officers and the yamen runners, is worse? In other words, which of them has a worse reputation among the people?"

Wang Shouye did not hide anything about this.

“Most of the yamen runners are locals and their positions are hereditary, so they have some bottom line when doing things.

But the patrol officers are different. They are transferred every five years, so they are more radical. I think Master An understands what I mean."

He understood the general situation, so Gu Nian'an didn't bother him any more. He said goodbye and left.

After he left, Wang Shouye's face gradually became gloomy.

After some communication, he could roughly guess Gu Nian'an's plan.

One can only say that this Taoist priest was really cruel. Not only did he prepare to burn down Li's mansion, but he also prepared cannon fodder to investigate Li's mansion. He was really shocked by how low his bottom line was.

However, as long as they are not involved in any incident with the Li family, the Wang family will be the ultimate beneficiary.

Therefore, he would not only not stop the young man's plan, but would also support it with all his strength.

Wang Shouye thought for a moment and turned to his nephew who was standing silently beside him.

“Wang Jie, you go to the west of the city in person and inform the leader of the Green Fox Gang, Xu Shuo, and ask him to prepare 20 good fighters to cooperate with Taoist Nian An tonight.

But let them come back at night, and when they come, they must wear night clothes for me, wrap them as tightly as possible, and when they move, just let them not say anything and cooperate with Taoist Nian An. "

At this point, Wang Shouye took a sip of the tea on the table and his eyes turned cold.

"Remember to handle this matter cleanly afterwards, and don't let this matter involve our Wang family."

Wang Jie, who was standing quietly by the side, heard his uncle's instructions. Without asking any questions, he bowed respectfully and turned away.

He is a core member of a large family who has been nurtured since childhood, and he is very clear about the large family's way of doing things.

After leaving the Wang family, Gu Nian'an walked on the bustling street until he came not far from the Li Mansion, where he stopped.

Gently pulling down the silk scarf covering her eyes, Gu Nian'an frowned as she looked at the gray-black smoke rising into the sky from the Li family's house.

Even the scorching sun cannot dispel the deathly aura, so the probability of there being anyone alive in the Li family is almost negligible.

However, when he shifted his gaze to the burly men guarding the gate of Li's Mansion, he became a little unsure about his guess.

Although those people looked pale, the aura of death surrounding them was too strong.

But they look normal even under the scorching sun and their movements are no different from those of ordinary people, so they must be living people.

What he couldn't understand was whether a normal living person could really survive in such a strong evil and death energy?

With all kinds of doubts in his mind, Gu Nian'an kept wandering around Li's mansion, and he still couldn't figure out anything until the sun gradually set.

Forget it, forget it, there is nothing to worry about. He believes that a big fire should be able to make all the secrets of the Li family more clear.

After squatting at the door of Li's house for a long time and not seeing anything unusual, Gu Nian'an prepared to return to the inn to pack up before taking any action.

When he returned to the inn, he saw from afar a figure holding a gun sitting alone on the stone steps, emitting a cold aura that kept strangers away.

Gu Nian'an didn't care much about this. Instead, he walked to Xu Chongxiao's side and slowly sat down.

After sitting down, he slightly raised his nose and smelled a faint smell of blood coming from his side.

"Did he kill anyone?"

Hearing this, Xu Chongxiao lowered his head silently.

"No, I just gave him some punishment."

Gu Nian'an turned around and looked at the person next to him in surprise.

How can I say that this person's moral bottom line is a little too high, and he is bound tightly by his chivalrous heart. He asked himself that if he were in Xu Chongxiao's situation at that time, he would not be able to stop after seeing blood.

Looking at the spear in Xu Chongxiao's hand, Gu Nian'an asked, "Did you return to the cave later?"

"Well, where is Senior Sister? I want to help her piece together the bones, but...

But there are too many corpses there, and I can’t find or tell which one is my sister’s.”

At this point, Xu Chongxiao lowered his head even more, his eyes filled with despair.

Alas! Gu Nian'an reached out and patted Xu Chongxiao on the shoulder.

"Don't think too much. I probably already know the location of the ghost baby. Everything has been arranged properly, and there will be a result tonight.

After killing the ghost baby, I will find a way to go with you to bury all the corpses in the cave in order."

Hearing this, Xu Chongxiao suddenly raised his head, with a hint of crazy hatred burning in his dark eyes.

Only it, only the monster of the ghost baby, is someone he can never forgive. If he doesn't grind it to dust, senior sister will never rest in peace.

"Master Nian'an, I..."

Without waiting for Xu Chongxiao to finish his words, he just smiled and waved his hand.

“No need to say more, I have already arranged everything, and there is no place for you this time.

The reason I’m telling you now is because this operation is quite dangerous, and I’m not sure if I can get out of it safely.

If I am not back by noon tomorrow, then you must leave Anyang County immediately and try to become stronger. Try every possible way to become stronger. When you are completely sure of your success, it will not be too late to come back and seek revenge on the ghost baby. "

Yes, Gu Nian'an was a little worried about tonight's hasty action.

The situation of the Li family is unclear and there are too many variables, but now that the ghost baby is seriously injured, it is the best time. Once it is delayed and the ghost baby recovers from the serious injury, there will be no chance at all.

After giving the instructions, Gu Nian'an ignored Xu Chongxiao who was a little dazed, turned around and went back to the second floor of the inn to start meditating and regulating his breathing. The action would begin in the evening, and there was still some time, so he needed to adjust to the best condition to deal with the crisis tonight.

At midnight, the night falls and the intermittent sounds of night watchmen can be heard from the streets.

Gu Nian'an, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, slowly opened his eyes. Suddenly, golden and silver light flowed in his eyes, almost bursting out.

The time has almost come, it's time to make a conclusion.

Gu Nian'an climbed out of the window and walked alone on the quiet street.

After taking two steps, he turned his head helplessly and looked at the gunman following behind him.

"Do you have to go?"

"Well, I must go."

"You might die, and you may not get revenge."

"Life is suffering, and death is not necessarily a bad thing."

Senior sister Yingrong’s smiling face flashed before Xu Chongxiao’s eyes. Perhaps he would be able to see her again after he died.

"Okay, be careful next time. Tonight, life and death are up to fate."

Things have come to this point, there is no need to persuade further.
