Mr. Bodyguard Novel - Chapter 157

Chapter 157 Mansion, Devil Sword, Evil Spirit
Since Han Chuxue and Zhou Yurou still had some time before class ended, Jiang Feng first brought Lan Xiaoyun and the person who brought them to the house to leave Yanjing University and visit the house at Yezi Hutong in Haidian District.

Zhou Tonghai said on the phone that only he could live in this house. Jiang Feng immediately understood that there must be something unusual about this house.

The person who showed him the house did not hide anything from him and directly told Jiang Feng about the history of the house.

During the reign of Guangxu in the late Qing Dynasty, a great general was extremely valiant and bloodthirsty. Every time he suppressed the rebellion, he would succeed. Afterwards, he killed a large number of prisoners of war, causing the rebels to feel terrified when they heard his name, and they no longer dared to fight against him.

It was precisely because of this that the Great General had made outstanding contributions in battle and was named “Prince Li” by Empress Dowager Cixi.

As an outsider prince, Prince Li naturally enjoyed endless riches and honor. If he had been a little more self-centered, he might have left behind a great family.

However, it was unexpected that Prince Li would go crazy one night and carry a long sword directly into the palace. From Donghua Gate to Xizhimen, he was killed by the fire/gun squad.

After that, Empress Dowager Cixi was furious and directly executed his nine clans, plagiarizing his entire clan. She also ordered the sect to remove Prince Li from the throne of the royal family and prevent his name from appearing in the royal family genealogy.

After Prince Li’s death, Empress Dowager Cixi’s Prince Li Mansion, which had been specially built for him, was left idle.

No one was willing to take over the house in the late Qing Dynasty because of his death. In the period of the Republic of China, Yuan Shikai’s strongest general, Long Chaoyuan, accepted Yuan Shikai’s reward and lived in this house.

However, he had only lived for a short time, and one day, he brought along two guns and a sword and directly rushed to Yuan Shikai’s presidential palace, raiding it. Among them, Yuan Shikai’s favorite wife was killed by Long Chaoyuan.

Ever since then, no one dared to live in this Prince Li building. Even with the reform and opening up, the house has been empty since the founding of China.

Its ownership had always been in the hands of the state, and it had not been sold at several auctions. That was why Prince Li’s Mansion had maintained its original appearance until now.

After listening to the introduction, Jiang Feng did not mind the strange things that had happened to the two owners of the house first. Instead, he said with a disgusted expression, “It’s already over a hundred years old. Can you still live in a house? It can’t be a dangerous house, right?”

“Don’t worry about that.” Little Guo, who was taking Jiang Feng to the house, shook his head. “Within the Second Ring Road of Yanjing, such a big house is probably worth at least two billion yuan. In order to auction off this house, the Land Bureau took out a sum of money to carefully renovate it about ten years ago.”

However, what was unexpected was that in the end, the Land Bureau had announced a bid of 1.8 billion yuan, and not a single person had submitted a bid. So until now, not only was the house in a good location, but it was also very newly renovated. ”

“Nobody bid for 1.8 billion? Even if there were the two things from before, shouldn’t it be like this?” Jiang Feng was puzzled.

“Of course, it’s not because of what happened to the owner of the house. It’s just a front. All the real estate agents in Yanjing are human beings and are very clustered. They deliberately refuse to accept the offer and want the government to sell the house at a low price before they buy it at a low price.”

“Oh, I see. Looks like those real estate dealers won’t accept the offer. They’re giving me a free hand.”

As he spoke, Little Guo had already turned his car into a fork in the road. After parking the car beside the road, Little Guo gallantly opened the door for Jiang Feng and Lan Xiaoyun.

He pointed to a vermillion red gate across the street. There was a row of stairs and two stone lions in front of the gate. On the top of the gate was a golden plaque with the words “Prince Li’s Mansion”. It looked very majestic.

“Why is there a plaque of Prince Li’s Mansion?” Jiang Feng was puzzled.

Little Guo smiled and said, “I don’t know about this either. No one has ever taken it off. Now, it can be said to be an antique.”

“Let’s go, Mr. Jiang. Let’s go into the house and take a look.”

“Alright.” Jiang Feng held Lan Xiaoyun’s hand and followed Xiao Guo to the door of the house.

There was a big iron lock hanging on the Suan Ni bronze ring on the vermilion door. Xiao Guo took out a key and opened it. Jiang Feng immediately pulled Lan Xiaoyun to the side and pulled Xiao Guo to the side as soon as he pushed the door open.

“Mr. Jiang, what’s wrong?” Little Guo looked at Jiang Feng doubtfully.

Jiang Feng did not answer him. Instead, he pointed at Little Guo’s car and said to Lan Xiaoyun, “Little Yun, wait for me in the car first.”

“Oh.” Lan Xiaoyun nodded. Xiao Guo quickly took out his car keys and handed them to Lan Xiaoyun.

Jiang Feng said to Little Guo, “There is indeed something strange about this house. Do you want to come with me and consider it yourself?”

Little Guo looked at Jiang Feng nervously and swallowed his saliva. “Big brother, how about I wait for you in the car now? The house is quite big. I’m afraid I’ll get lost if I go in with you.”

“Why aren’t you afraid that I’ll get lost?” Jiang Feng thought to himself.

However, when he thought of what he felt when the house was opened, he no longer bothered with Little Guo and nodded his head.

After Xiao Guo left, Jiang Feng pushed open the door, crossed the threshold, and closed the door.

It is late summer and the weather is hot. However, this Prince Li’s mansion was cold to the bone, giving people the illusion that their bodies were cold to their hearts.

Jiang Feng glanced around and then continuously produced all sorts of strange syllables from his throat.

This move was called “Ghost Summoning Technique”.

In the past, Jiang Feng did not understand, but to the Eight Qi Soul Palace that had evolved from the Ghost Cultivator Sect, this was a good show.

Suddenly, dark clouds covered the roof of Prince Li’s mansion. The house that had just been shining brightly turned from day to night at this moment.

Jiang Feng wasn’t nervous either, and he secretly circulated his Heavenly Vision Technique.

With his Heavenly Vision, he could see through the illusion of not being able to see five fingers in front of him at a glance. Actually, the weather was still bright and beautiful, and the sun was still shining on the entire Prince Li’s Mansion.

Jiang Feng stood there and looked ahead. Suddenly, a piece of black cloth shot out from the front. Jiang Feng quickly bit open his left index finger and drew the word “amnesty order” on his right hand.

The cloth shot towards Jiang Feng’s chest in an instant, giving people the feeling that it was a sharp spear that was about to pierce through Jiang Feng’s chest.

Jiang Feng smiled faintly. He dodged the incoming cloth slightly and grabbed the black cloth.

Relying on the feel of his hand, Jiang Feng could feel that this was not some kind of black cloth. It was clearly that Soft Floating had used too much, so his hair was extremely smooth.

“You think you can just take out your hair and show it off? I’ll burn it off today!”

“Amnesty Order, Fire Steps, extinguish!”

As soon as the incantation came out, a fire suddenly burst out from Jiang Feng’s palm, and then the fire rapidly burned down along his hair.

A miserable scream came from the house in the front yard.

Soon, a white figure flew out of the room. A woman dressed in pure white Chinese clothes stood in front of Jiang Feng with a long sword in her hand. That long sword was completely blood red, and it didn’t seem to be any more amiable than Jiang Feng’s vicious sword.

Moreover, Jiang Feng’s fierce sword had killed too many people with Fan Tie, so it naturally gave rise to spirituality and turned into a fierce sword.

However, this sword was different. The person who forged it wanted to turn it into a fierce sword from the very beginning, so it looked so different.

‘”I’ve always heard that all weapons have intelligence. I didn’t expect that I would really see the spirit of a devil sword today. What do you think? The sword in your hand is actually your main body. You are the spirit of that sword, right?”

“How do you know?” The long-haired white-clothed woman asked Jiang Feng. Even if she was asking, her tone was gloomy.

“Do you think I’m stupid? Although you used your sleeves to conceal it, how can I not see that the sword actually grew out of your body? You are the sword, the sword is you. This is not the legendary artifact spirit, what else can it be?”

“Who wants to be this artifact spirit!” The woman in white roared.

She said, “My husband was originally the Villa Master of the Hidden Sword Villa. In his entire life, he forged countless treasured swords. Everyone in Jianghu admired him.”

But who knew that General Xiao Qi, Chang Tianba, had found a piece of ‘Heavy Corpse Iron’ from somewhere? He insisted on looking for my husband to help him forge a demonic sword that would become more powerful the more people he killed.

If my husband doesn’t comply, he will kidnap me and threaten my husband. My husband has no choice but to refine this’ Myriad Slash Sword ‘for him.

On the day of the completion of the sword, Chang Tianba found a dead Taoist priest from somewhere. The dead Taoist priest calculated my birth date and said that I was born in the Yin Years and the Yin Moons and Yin Yin Dynasties. Let me be the artifact spirit of the Ten Thousand Slash Sword. The power of the Ten Thousand Slash Sword will increase by more than a hundred times.

Thus, that damned Chang Tianba threw me into the Sword Refining Furnace and burned me alive. Then, in order to cover up his crimes, he even killed all three hundred and eighty people in my husband’s Hidden Sword Villa, leaving behind no chickens or dogs. ”

“Then you were sealed into this sword and became an artifact spirit. After that, you followed Chang Tianba and killed countless people, and your soul was nourished by resentment.

In the end, Chang Tianba was no longer able to control this sword. You used your own ability to confuse Chang Tianba’s mind and let him go to the Imperial Palace to make a fuss. In the end, he was annihilated by the nine races.

“But I don’t understand. What’s wrong with that Long Chaoyuan behind you? Why do you want to harm him?”

“Who told him that his personality and temperament are too similar to Chang Tianba’s? He probably isn’t a good thing. A person like him deserves to die.”

“There’s no need for that. Chang Tianba has a grudge against you. You should have killed him to avenge him. However, it’s a bit wrong for you to implicate the other nine races. Long Chaoyuan didn’t provoke you at all, and you also caused his family to collapse. You’re really going too far.”

“What does it have to do with you if I can’t pass? They want to die, don’t you think you don’t need to die because you know a few surgical techniques? What I hate the most is people who know profound techniques!”
