The Ninth Lady is a rebellious person.

Chapter 184 They are in the light, I am in the dark

Lang Jiuchuan walked out of Lang Zhengping's study and returned to the courtyard in silence. He jumped out, squatted on her shoulder, and glanced at her timidly.

"If you have something to say, just say it."

Jiang Che said, "What you said to your uncle, are you ready to run away at any time?"

"Why are you running?" Lang Jiuchuan looked puzzled.

"Now that we have confirmed who our archenemy is, you will definitely attack the Rong family bit by bit. In order not to implicate the Lang family, why don't you run away?" Jiang Che said, "You are a person who speaks hard but is soft-hearted. You seem to have no feelings for the Lang family, but in your heart, you won't just watch them get implicated by you, right?"

Lang Jiuchuan sneered: "If you were my enemy, knowing that I was a thorn in your side, would you want to kill me, and then kill my whole family to avoid future troubles?"

This is likely to happen, but there will always be someone to blame for every wrong.

"Some people won't, but the Rong family will. Look at what they did before. Which one didn't involve the entire Lang family?" Lang Jiuchuan said coldly: "Don't mention anything else. They knew I wasn't the original owner, but they wanted to kill me like this. It shows their disgust and fear of my body. In their eyes, the Lang family and I are one. If I run away, will the Lang family be safe? Not necessarily. Even if I am completely separated from the Lang family, that person won't feel at ease with his narrow-mindedness, right?"

Jiang Che was silent. If he was at ease, he would not have sent Taoist priests from the clan to deal with Lang Jiuchuan again and again. On New Year's Eve, he even ignored the innocence of the Lang family, otherwise he would not have used such a sinister magic.

After returning to the yard, Lang Jiuchuan told Jianlan that he wanted to enter a state of meditation and enlightenment and not to disturb her, then he sat down in the study.

She took out the half portrait, looked at the woman's eyes and frowned.

Jiang Che said, "They are really weird. They went through such a detour to kill the original body. Since they have the ability to mislead people with illusions, why don't they go quietly? They have to use someone else's name. It's inexplicable."

"Didn't you say that the Rong family has hundreds of people, but only one root of Taoism, and is now at the bottom of the stream?" Lang Jiuchuan said: "Looking at the cultivation level of the disciples they sent, it is not difficult to deal with. Does that mean that many of the disciples' cultivation levels are not very high? Casting illusions also requires mental strength and cultivation. Casting illusions on the entire Zhuangzi will consume more than a little bit. Or maybe they think highly of themselves and think that there is no need to pay so much attention. After all, I am just an abandoned child who is no different from an orphan girl. If I really disappear, it will not attract much attention. It's enough to just pretend."

"If it were me, I would not enter that manor and let the people around me secretly kidnap you. It would be even more difficult to find out who did it. Doing this now will expose the evidence and let people find you by following the clues." Jiang Che muttered.

Lang Jiuchuan said: "There is always a loophole in a hundred precautions. Who knows what she is thinking?"

Jiang Che hesitated and said, "I am not afraid of anything else, but this obvious loophole. I am not afraid of anything else, but I am afraid of finding the wrong person, the wrong target, and taking revenge on the wrong person. After all, human hearts are complicated."

Lang Jiuchuan said, "Once we find out whether it is her or not, we will know whether there is any karma for her life debt. Don't worry, although I am anxious to resolve the karma of my original body's death, I will not lose my mind and kill anyone I catch. If I do that, I will also bear the karma."

He breathed a sigh of relief.

It was really afraid that this person would go crazy and lose his life.

"A little impatience will ruin a big plan. Just like what Pia said, now that we have found the general direction, we just need to plan slowly. After all, they are in the light now while I am in the dark." Lang Jiuchuan folded up the portrait with a nonchalant look on his face.

No matter how anxious she is, she will protect herself first. Even if the Rong family is at the bottom of the society, she can't pull it down all at once. She has to take it slowly.

She will not let go of anyone who has done anything to her body.

Lang Jiuchuan sat on the futon in the study, summoned the Little Nine Pagoda, formed seals with both hands, and his entire soul entered the pagoda. Revenge cannot be just talk, and you have to sharpen the knife before killing a pig, right? Her knife needs to be sharper.

In the following days, Lang Jiuchuan either nurtured his soul in the Xiaojiu Pagoda and comprehended the Taoism and Buddhism of Master Basil, or took a carving knife to carve the plaque sent by Zhuang Quanhai, or prepared medicinal materials, rolled medicine pills and refined soul incense.

The Little Nine Tower was a great treasure. It could nourish her soul while also allowing her to practice and comprehend, allowing her understanding to advance by leaps and bounds.

But while her life was peaceful and tranquil, the world outside the Marquis' Mansion, although still in the New Year, was undercurrents, as if a storm was sweeping in and there was unrest everywhere.

Shen Qinghe and Gong Qi felt their mouths were full of blisters. The evil creature with fangs was not found, but the number of missing women was increasing.

The most important clue was Zhuo Yu. Shen Qinghe investigated him, but before he could find out anything, Zhuo Yu died in his own study. He also left a letter of confession. It was he who killed his wife Ding Suqiu and burned her body in the wilderness. He was afraid that the truth would be revealed because his father-in-law came to his house, so he framed his father-in-law. Now he could not rest day and night, so he committed suicide to atone for his sins.

But who would believe it? Others believed it, but Shen Qinghe and Gong Qi didn't. Instead, they were more convinced that a powerful black hand was stirring up the situation.

But the chain of evidence was there, even the location of the burned body was explained, and the body that was burned to bones was found, and the confession was also written in his handwriting. All we could do was temporarily classify Zhuo Yu's case as one of suicide out of fear of crime. Ding Man Gu was therefore cleared of the charges and released.

Shen Qinghe stayed in Dali Temple during the New Year's holidays, sorting out the details of each missing woman's case.

Gong Qi couldn't help but find Lang Jiuchuan.

Lang Jiuchuan had just had the carved plaque delivered to the shop when she saw Gong Qi looking at her with a pair of dark eyes full of resentment.

She has been taking good care of herself these past few days. Not only has her face gained some weight, but it has also become a little rosy. She looks energetic, and although she looks frail, she doesn't look like she will die young.

"...Even Zhuo Yu was murdered. Do you have any other ideas?" Gong Qi asked, "More and more women are missing. If we can't find them, it will be more difficult to deal with that thing."

Lang Jiuchuan didn't know what to say, so he said, "The Xuan Clan sent out so many people, but they couldn't find any clues?"

Such a waste?

"Like you said, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack."

Lang Jiuchuan said calmly: "Looking for a needle in a haystack requires a method. Do you not have the ability to spend energy and effort to deduce and calculate, or are you unwilling to do so?"

Gong Qi's face darkened: "What do you mean?"

"After all, it takes effort to cultivate." Lang Jiuchuan did not hide the sarcasm in his words: "It is understandable that you want to preserve your strength."

Gong Qi stood up and said coldly: "If you don't like it, there's no need to insult me like this."

He turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly paused, pulled out the Red Flame Soul Locking Chain from his waist and rolled towards the top of the wall: "What are you doing?"

Lang Jiuchuan saw it and his face changed immediately. Without thinking, he took off the Emperor Bell from his waist and knocked the Red Flame Soul Locking Chain off balance. At the same time, he raised the Judge's Pen in his hand and grabbed the trembling hanged ghost on the wall. He said, "It's his own ghost. Don't kill him by mistake!"
