Lucky Farmer Girl: I rely on metaphysics to support my family

Chapter 689 Feeling Chilled
Everyone held their breath, waiting for Tang Wan to retrieve the bundle from the ominous pit.

However, Tang Wan simply stood quietly at the edge of the pit, scrutinizing the bottom with piercing eyes, without moving an inch.

Young Master Gao was anxious and couldn't help but step forward, asking urgently, "Master? Is there... something wrong?"

"Please be patient, let me take a look first!" Tang Wan said in an unquestionable tone.

She didn't bring the bundle up because she had a guess in her mind.

After she finished observing, she bent down at the edge of the pit and deftly untied the dusty, mud-covered cloth bag!

Upon opening it, Tang Wan thought to herself, "Just as I suspected."

The moment the bundle was unwrapped, an even stronger, more nauseating stench of decay and blood assaulted our senses!

The servants and young master Gao, who were standing nearby, couldn't help but cover their mouths and noses, take a step back, and their faces turned ugly.

Tang Wan remained expressionless, her gaze fixed on the contents of the bundle.

Then, she looked up at the pale-faced young master Gao at the edge of the pit and said in a cold voice, "Young master Gao, come and see for yourself what's wrong with this!"

With the help of his servant, Young Master Gao went down into the pit and saw a sharp dagger in the open bundle.

The dagger was entirely black, with an exceptionally sharp blade and engraved runes on the hilt that were difficult to decipher.

Inside was a purse, made of cloth but looking old, with a strange symbol embroidered on it.

When he saw the two things at the bottom of the pit, Young Master Gao felt a chill run down his spine, his stomach churn, his body grow colder, and he became increasingly afraid.

He looked to Tang Wan for help.

Tang Wan didn't see his plea for help. She was bending down to pick up the purse, and when she opened it, she found a lock of hair inside.

Tang Wan's eyes suddenly turned icy cold. With disgust and without hesitation, she threw the purse back into the soil at the bottom of the pit!
Seeing this, Young Master Gao cautiously inquired, "Master, what does this mean?"

“This dagger,” Tang Wan pointed at the dark weapon and said coldly, “is a funerary object unearthed from a tomb! It is covered with the deathly and malevolent energy accumulated over the years; it is an extremely yin and evil object! Look closely at where its tip is pointing!”

Young Master Gao examined the dagger closely and noticed that it was pointing southwest. He considered a possibility and felt increasingly uneasy about the cold, dark pit.

He looked at Tang Wan in surprise, his eyes filled with disbelief as he asked, "Is this specifically targeting me?"

Tang Wan's icy voice shattered his last shred of hope: "The blade is pointing in the direction where the baleful energy and death energy converge and collide! If I'm not mistaken, Young Master Gao, your main courtyard is in this southwest direction, isn't it?"

Gao Wenyuan's face was ashen, his lips trembled, and he could barely speak, only able to nod with difficulty.

Tang Wan looked at the young master Gao, whose face was rather pale, and continued, "The southwest corner has probably been almost completely corroded by the evil energy and death energy long ago."

Tang Wan then pointed to the purse lying on the ground and said, "The hair in the purse is from a dead person, and it's the hair of a woman who died unjustly. It's filled with resentment."

Young Master Gao shuddered involuntarily, his face turning deathly pale as he stared at Tang Wan, asking incredulously, "Woman's hair?"

Tang Wan nodded slightly and explained, "Yes, it's the hair of a woman who died unjustly, still carrying resentment. This resentment, combined with the malevolent and deathly aura on the dagger, forms a blood-fiend aura, specifically targeting the women in your courtyard." "That's right!" Tang Wan said decisively, each word like a heavy hammer striking Gao Wenyuan's heart. "The resentment of this unjustly killed woman, along with the cold, malevolent, and filthy deathly aura condensed on the dagger, intertwine, nourish, and catalyze each other... ultimately fusing and mutating to form an extremely rare and extremely vicious blood-fiend aura! It specifically targets the women in your courtyard, ruining their lives and cutting off their offspring."

Upon hearing this, Young Master Gao couldn't help but take a half step back, almost losing his balance and falling. He asked incredulously, "Is this specifically targeting the women in my courtyard?"

"Yes, you heard right. This must be some deep-seated grudge that wants to make you childless!" Tang Wan continued bluntly.

Young Master Gao was in a state of turmoil. This was not only going to kill him off, but it was going to kill off the entire Gao family line!

The Gao family appears prosperous on the surface, but they are small in number. Although everyone calls him Young Master Gao, he is actually the only son of the Gao family.

He had a younger brother, but he died young.

He was the only son in the Gao family.

If he remains childless, wouldn't that mean the entire Gao family line would be cut off?

This vast family fortune would then be cut off and reduced to nothing.

Who exactly harbors such hatred towards the Gao family?
Tang Wan noticed that the young master was somewhat dazed, so she called out to him several times before he finally came to his senses.

Young Master Gao took a few deep breaths, forcibly suppressing his turbulent emotions.

He straightened his disheveled robes, bowed deeply to Tang Wan, and said earnestly, "Master! I will never forget your kindness today! I implore you to help my Gao family out of this dire situation! The entire Gao family will repay you handsomely!"

Hearing Young Master Gao's sincerity, Tang Wan slowly said, "Since this matter is caused by the evil magic of the Xuanmen sect, I will do my best to resolve it and eradicate this calamity. As for who is behind this scheme and what grudge they have against the Gao family..."

Tang Wan paused for a moment, her gaze sweeping over the ferocious creature at the bottom of the pit, and said meaningfully, "That is something your Gao family needs to carefully investigate and clean up."

Upon hearing Tang Wan's words, Young Master Gao bowed again and said, "Thank you, Master, for disregarding past grievances and lending a helping hand. I am deeply grateful!"

Tang Wan gently helped Young Master Gao up and said politely, "Young Master Gao, there's no need to be so polite. This is the business I run. I will naturally not delay in handling things that I can handle. Besides, we Xuanmen people have our own principles in doing things."

Looking at the young master before him, who was young yet possessed a composed demeanor and extraordinary skills, Young Master Gao felt no more contempt, only deep respect and gratitude.

He sincerely praised, "Master, you are upright and honest, open-minded, highly accomplished, and compassionate. I admire you greatly!"

"It's what I should do, there's really no need for such praise," Tang Wan replied gently.

Young Master Gao smiled but didn't say anything.

Tang Wan bent down and put the dagger and purse into her bundle, then picked it up.

When the young master Gao saw Tang Wan pick up the bundle, he suggested, "Let the servants take this bundle! It looks filthy and unlucky."

"No need. Laymen shouldn't touch this easily. Even if it's for a short time, it will have some effect on ordinary people," Tang Wan explained in a serious tone.

Young Master Gao suddenly realized, "So that's how it is."
