Yan Bei glanced at Huo Junhan.
Huo Junhan stood up from his chair and said calmly, “If General Shen wants to end the situation, feel free to ask the others here. I won’t accompany you.”
With that, he turned and walked in the direction of the sleeping room.
“Go ahead,” Shen Liu’an said to Yan Bei.
Since Huo Junhan wasn’t here, Yan Bei didn’t have any worries. He said with a solemn expression, “General Shen, you’ve read the dossier. You should know that about 60 people have died in Oriole Village in the past month. Almost two of them die every day. The night my master came, he found the evil creature hiding in Oriole Village. That evil creature was powerful and cunning. It was lucky to escape from my master. We originally thought that it was the evil creature who harmed them, but later on, we realized that it wasn’t.”
“Is that jade pendant behind this?” Shen Liu’an asked.
Yan Bei nodded. “Every victim came into contact with that jade pendant before they died. They all died from self-torture and used very cruel methods. This jade pendant will hide in the human body and escape on its own after harming someone. Two days ago, another person controlled by the jade pendant appeared. Fortunately, Master found him in time and found the jade pendant in his body when he was only two breaths away from passing.”
When Shen Liu’an heard this, his dark brows furrowed, and a cold expression appeared on his handsome face.
“The evil creature hiding in Oriole Village was also for that jade pendant. Last night, it took the initiative to appear in Master’s room and wanted to steal the jade pendant, but Master discovered it and escaped again after suffering a heavy setback.”
“That jade pendant has the ability to make people commit suicide,” Shen Liu’an said slowly and looked up at Yan Bei. “But your master isn’t controlled by the jade pendant.”
Yan Bei scratched his head. “I don’t know what’s wrong with Master either. He seems to like that jade pendant very much.”
“Have you investigated the origins of that jade pendant?” Shen Liu’an asked.
Yan Bei nodded. “I’ve investigated. That jade pendant doesn’t belong to this village. According to the village chief, the jade pendant was brought by a spiritual cultivator who passed by here a month ago.”
“Where’s that spiritual cultivator?” Shen Liu’an continued to ask.
“He died on Oriole Mountain. Then, a hunter surnamed Wu found his corpse and took the jade pendant. After Hunter Wu hanged himself with his hunting bow, people started to die every day in Oriole Village,” Yan Bei answered methodically.
Shen Liu’an felt that he had to understand more about the situation. He stood up from the stone bench and said to Yan Bei, “Yan Bei, if there’s nothing else, accompany me to take a look at the corpses of the villagers. At the same time, we can find the villagers to understand more about the situation.”
Yan Bei nodded.
The room was filled with a faint fragrance. Huo Junhan was lying on the bed when the jade pendant in his palm suddenly flashed.
The red patterns on the jade pendant seemed to have come to life and began to swim. They turned into red smoke that emitted from the jade bracelet and entered Huo Junhan’s nose.
The man lay there quietly with his eyes closed, his thin lips curling up slightly.
“Yaoyao…” A low murmur came from the man’s thin lips, sounding strangely charming and hoarse.
Oriole Mountain was behind Oriole Village. The mountains and rivers here were beautiful. It was originally a famous paradise, but because of the recent deaths, the entire village seemed to be covered in an indelible haze. Every time it was dark, the doors of every house would be closed, and the village was terrifyingly quiet.
The moonlight shone on the country road, and the sound of the carriage passing by was especially clear.
