Su Chen glanced at Ge Jinghao and the others, whose eyes were burning with anticipation.

"Its target is not me, not us."

Upon hearing this, Lin Jingyu frowned: "They haven't given up yet?"

Su Chen smiled.

"Has anyone been brought down?"

"Now that Huacheng is leaderless, it's a perfect opportunity to fish in troubled waters."

Lin Jingyu bit her lip.

Shang Xiangyun asked, "Will they still collect so many corpses?"

"will not."

"That's reassuring, the immortals are actually..."

Su Chen: "There might be a forest of stone statues belonging to one person."

Ge Jinghao and the others looked completely bewildered, while Ji Feng and the others' lips turned slightly pale.

Lin Jingyu slowly exhaled.

"Shouldn't we still give them a warning?"

Su Chen hummed in agreement: "Don't worry, the exorcism team won't stand idly by in this kind of situation."

He put down his chopsticks: "I'll go cut the stone."

The machines in the backyard started up again, and Ge Jinghao finally shifted his position, moving closer to Zhang Yugui: "Boss Zhang, what's this Stone Statue Forest? It sounds a bit scary, what's going on?"

"I'm not quite sure either. Maybe that evil god can turn people to stone?"

"Petrification?"

Ge Jinghao glanced at his arm resting on the table: "Turn your body to stone?"

"Wasn't that person dead?"

Zhang Yugui nodded: "That should be the case."

Ge Jinghao chuckled dryly and looked at Lin Jingyu: "Uncle, if we go..."

“Perfect timing. I was just about to remind you all that even if you go to the public auction, you have to be careful and behave yourselves,” Lin Jingyu said seriously. “All of you, keep your tails between you. Observe more and say less, and don’t do anything more.”

Ge Jinghao nodded repeatedly.

"That evil god can even petrify dragons. It would probably petrify ordinary people like us in a few seconds. By then, even if Su Chen is very capable, it will probably be too late."

"Be good if you don't want to die."

These words made Ge Jinghao a little scared: "Uncle, maybe we shouldn't...don't go, it's too dangerous, isn't it?"

Xiang Qingfeng and the others nodded in unison.

Lin Jingyu snorted: "Didn't you hear that the evil god's target isn't us? You've been with us these past few days, so you're the safest. Just behave yourselves."

That being said, when the group went out together, Ge Jinghao and the others all looked pale and sickly.

Su Chen glanced at the cars behind them and asked Lin Jingyu curiously, "What's wrong with them?"

"It's nothing, I'm just a little timid." Lin Jingyu hesitated for a moment, but before he could speak, Su Chen took out a stack of talismans.

"Thanks."

Lin Jingyu took the stack, counted them, and gave one to the assistant in the front passenger seat: "You and the bodyguards will each have one later."

"thank you boss."

Lin Jingyu put the rest into the file bag and looked at Su Chen: "Professor Xu's epitaph has been written. I'll have someone fax it over. Would you like to see it now?"

Su Chen nodded.

"no problem."

"Then we can ask those teachers to write a few copies later."

"By the way, when are you going to carve it? Do you have any suitable stones? I recently acquired a few pieces of bluestone, they're quite nice."

Su Chen waved his hand: "No need, we already have the stone, there's no need to carve any more."

The car stopped.

Ge Jinghao and his group were dragging their feet, so Lin Jingyu turned around helplessly, pulled up his pants and kicked Ge Jinghao. Only then did the young men jog forward.

Shang Xiangyun chuckled: "It's rare to see Jingyu lose her temper like this."

His gaze shifted, and he rubbed his eyes in disbelief: "No way?"

Lin Jingyu followed his gaze and was taken aback: "Third cousin?"

He and Shang Xiangyun quickly went to greet them.

After taking a closer look at Lin Jingmo, Shang Xiangyun even reached out and pinched his cheek.

"Phew, still warm, a living person."

He then joked, "You've finally decided to come out and about? I thought you were going to stay hidden in your shell forever. So what if you were... you know? She's pretty, we're not at a disadvantage."

"Get out!" Lin Jingmo said coldly.

Shang Xiangyun immediately raised his hands: "Okay, okay, I'll leave, I'll leave, alright?"

He patted Lin Jingyu on the shoulder sympathetically.

"Jingyu, don't provoke him, he has a terrible temper."

Then he came back whistling and swaying back and forth.

Ge Jinghao grabbed his arm and asked excitedly, "Uncle, is that the legendary Uncle Jingmo?"

"Ha~ Has his story already spread to the mainland?"

Ge Jinghao chuckled, constantly peering into Lin Jingmo's eyes.

"They're all famous now!"

"It's because of Uncle Jingmo. I used to be out there having a blast and looking for a girlfriend, and my family would nag me every day. Now they don't nag anymore, but they remind me to find someone from a respectable family, preferably a college student... If that doesn't work, I'll get them pregnant as soon as possible. My family can afford to support them."

Shang Xiangyun chuckled, "So your elders are quite open-minded!"

"We should not only thank Uncle Jingmo for this, but also thank you."

Shang Xiangyun: "Me?"

"Yeah, my grandpa heard that you play around with women all day long and still don't have any children. He suspects that you've ruined your... well, that's why you're so open-minded."

Shang Xiangyun's face darkened.

"I'm not broken!"

“I know, I know,” Ge Jinghao nodded repeatedly, “I meant my grandfather suspected…”

"I'm not broken!"

Ge Jinghao: "???"

"What you've been emphasizing..."

Someone next to him blurted out without thinking, "It can't be true, can it?"

Shang Xiangyun: "!!! Jing Yu!"

Lin Jingyu rushed over in a hurry and grabbed Ge Jinghao by the ear.

"Uncle, uncle, it wasn't me, it really wasn't me..."

"You're not the one to take responsibility, are you? Who gave you the right to lead the way?"

Ge Jinghao cried out in pain, "My ear is about to break! It hurts, it hurts, it hurts..."

"You still know pain?" Lin Jingyu glanced at him, took two deep breaths, "Alright, hurry up and go inside to look at the raw stones. You guys, if you don't understand, just obediently follow behind us."

Ge Jinghao rubbed his ears, glared at his friend who had spoken earlier, and nodded with a pitiful expression: "Okay, okay~"

Lin Jingmo walked over.

He glanced at Shang Xiangyun's face, which was as black as the bottom of a pot: "You're crippled?"

Shang Xiangyun: "I already said no."

"Your lower body is useless."

Shang Xiangyun: "???"

"No, Jingmo, are you deaf...?"

"Good brother, we'll go down together!" Lin Jingmo patted him on the shoulder and smiled at Wei Shaoqing beside him, "Hello!"

Wei Shaoqing hesitated before speaking, "Uh, hello."

"I'm fine. My elders asked me to come and pick out a birthday gift. It just so happens that it's nearby, so I came to take a look."

"You..." Wei Shaoqing chuckled dryly, "Are you alright?"

"It's nothing serious, I didn't do anything."

Shang Xiangyun chuckled: "The one being pinned down knows how to enjoy himself."

"By the way, I've been wanting to ask this for a while now. Were your hands tied, or were both your hands and feet tied? Were you hanging in the air?"

Lin Jingmo smiled and turned to look at him.

A soft voice asked, "Do you... want to die?"

"I can grant your wish, so that you can also be oppressed and enjoy it."

Shang Xiangyun shuddered and hurried inside. Before he had taken two steps, the sound of an engine approached from afar.

When they saw Jiang Li, dressed in a leather jacket and pants with bright red lips, get off the motorcycle.

Shang Xiangyun's mouth was slightly open, and after a long while, she walked to Lin Jingmo's side.

"Um, could you please let me be with her?"

Lin Jingmo glanced at him indifferently, then his gaze fell on the car approaching from afar. Looking at Tan Zhiyuan and the veiled woman beside him, he frowned and said, "Who are they? They look a little uncomfortable."
