Surprise! Tyrant’s Little Crybaby Went on a Killing Spree After Being Reborn - Chapter 166

166 It Has Nothing to Do with General Shen

About an incense stick of time later.

Shen Liu’an appeared in the backyard of Landlord Liu’s house.

There was a wooden recliner under the big tree in the backyard. At this moment, a man in a plain white robe was lazily lying on the recliner and pretending to sleep. His long black hair poured down from the recliner and fluttered with the breeze.

The blood-colored jade pendant in her hand formed a sharp contrast with her fair skin.

!!
Yan Bei was one step ahead of Shen Liu’an. At this moment, he was standing behind Huo Junhan. When he saw Shen Liu’an walking over, his eyes lit up. “Master, General Shen is here.”

Huo Junhan opened his eyes lazily and glanced at Shen Liu’an before putting the jade pendant into his sleeve.

Seeing Huo Junhan’s actions, Shen Liu’an’s eyebrows twitched. He quickened his pace and walked up. “What are you hiding?”

“It has nothing to do with General Shen,” Huo Junhan said calmly as he adjusted his sitting posture.

Shen Liu’an sat on the stone bench beside him and looked at Huo Junhan. “I’ve already read all the files about the strange things that have happened in Oriole Village recently. You got that jade pendant from the latest victim, right?”

Huo Junhan glanced at Yan Bei from the corner of his eye.

When Yan Bei met that cold gaze, his legs went weak, and he almost kneeled on the ground.

He only glanced at Yan Bei and looked away. Under Shen Liu’an’s gaze, Huo Junhan still took out the jade pendant from his sleeve and threw it to him.

Shen Liu’an reached out and took the jade pendant steadily.

In an instant, his hand felt like it was being entangled by a poisonous snake.

The sticky and cold feeling passed directly from that hand to his heart, instantly evoking his most painful memories.

“General Shen…” Yan Bei couldn’t help but shout worriedly when he saw the pain on Shen Liu’an’s face.

However, at this moment, Shen Liu’an had already completely fallen into the memories of the day he lost his beloved wife. The heart-wrenching pain seemed to have transformed into a substantial knife that ruthlessly strangled his heart.

At the same time, a voice in his heart seemed to be telling him.

If he wanted to live like this and bear the pain of losing his love, he might as well die.

The voice was like a curse, becoming clearer.

Just as Shen Liu’an gripped the jade pendant tightly with one hand and the sword hanging at his waist with the other, a cup of tea was splashed on his face.

The cold tea instantly woke Shen Liu’an up. He subconsciously let go of the cold jade pendant in his hand.

His slender fingers hooked the red ribbon on the jade pendant in time to prevent it from falling to the ground.

Huo Junhan put the jade pendant back into his sleeve and placed the empty teacup on the stone table beside him with his other hand.

Yan Bei looked at the tea on Shen Liu’an’s face, and his lips twitched. He quickly took out a clean handkerchief and handed it to Shen Liu’an with both hands. “General Shen, please forgive my master. You were controlled by the jade pendant just now. In order to prevent you from doing anything to hurt yourself, my master splashed tea on you.”

Although the situation just now was a little urgent, it would be unreasonable if he didn’t explain why his master had splashed tea on his future father-in-law.

Shen Liu’an naturally knew that something was wrong with him just now. He took the handkerchief and wiped the tea off his face bit by bit. He looked at Yan Bei and asked, “Tell me, what’s with that jade pendant?”

When Yan Bei went to look for him just now, he only told him that Huo Junhan had obtained a jade pendant from a dead person. Then, he stayed in the courtyard for two consecutive days and didn’t go out. He spent most of his time sleeping with the jade pendant in his hand.

He didn’t say anything else.
