Chapter 121 Breaking the disguise
The evil spirits are dead.

It turned into a piece of incense and seven skins.

The young masters and young ladies of the Liu Mansion, who had given people a huge sense of oppression, had all left, and there was still steaming food on the table.

Hu Yunkuan and Lao Zhao's faces immediately showed joy.

Now that there was no danger, they could have a good meal, divide the spoils, and spend the night in safety...

After this intense fight, everyone was already very hungry. They didn't care that the ingredients were a bit strange and just sat at the table to enjoy the meal.

But as soon as the two of them sat down, they felt that the atmosphere was a little off.

When I looked up, I found that Guan Daorong, Du E and Wu Xian still had gloomy faces.

Hu Yunkuan asked in confusion: "What's wrong? Are you still thinking about Master Liu's request? We still have plenty of time. We can eat first and then..."

Wu Xian shook his head: "Before Young Master Liu and his men showed up, I had already said that we still have two problems to solve."

"What two questions?"

The driver, Lao Zhao, tore off the leg of a roasted bamboo rat and bit it while asking.

"The first is the evil spirit that haunts Huo Gai."

Wu Xian walked up to Huo Gai and kicked him.

"The danger is over. You can now release your abilities and recover."

Huo Gai's head shook, with a silly expression on his face.

"No, there are evil spirits among you. It's too dangerous. Xiuwen and I have to wait until morning. Xiuwen, Xiuwen... It's so comfortable to be with you... Hehe."

The lonely head rolled on the ground, making this expression and saying these words, making everyone feel a little creepy.

Hu Yunkuan frowned.

"This is indeed a problem. There is an evil spirit in Huo Gai's body. It is a hidden danger that must be solved. However, this evil spirit can only be seen by Huo Gai, and it only harms him. We have no way to find it, so we can only leave it like this for the time being."

Wu Xian agreed with Hu Yunkuan.

"The evil spirit in Huo Gai can indeed be put aside for the time being, but... the second problem we need to solve is also related to Huo Gai."

Hu Yunkuan was stunned: "What do you mean?"

Wu Xian gave a sarcastic smile and looked at Hu Yunkuan coldly.

"You all heard it. Huo Gai said twice that there is an evil spirit among us. We cannot ignore it."

The driver, Lao Zhao, scratched his head and said, "This is the crazy talk that Huo Gai said when he was bewitched by the evil spirit."

Guan Daorong sneered.

"What if this crazy talk is the truth?"

Du E also nodded, agreeing with Wu Xian and Guan Daorong's opinions.

The three of them looked at Hu Yunkuan and Lao Zhao.

Hu Yunkuan was sweating all over and his back was cold. He stood up in panic and waved his hands, saying, "Don't be suspicious. This is a conspiracy of evil spirits. The purpose is to disrupt our unity. We just went through hardships together. How could there be evil spirits hiding here?"

Seeing Hu Yunkuan's panic, Wu Xian sneered: "Haha, sharing hardships may also be a disguise of evil."

The driver, Lao Zhao, was stunned.

Only then did he come to his senses and realize what Wu Xian and others meant. The bamboo rat leg in his mouth fell out. His face was first confused, then fearful. He quickly left Hu Yunkuan and hid behind Guan Daorong.

Hu Yunkuan immediately confirmed that the person suspected of being the evil spirit was him!
Then an angry look appeared on his face: "I have always been with you. There is no chance for me to be replaced by the evil spirit. What reason do you have to doubt me?"

Du E said lightly. "What you see may not be the truth. Evil spirits can create illusions. Being together all the time cannot be used as evidence. Maybe you were fake at a certain time."

Wu Xian pulled over a stool and sat down, pretending to be interrogating Hu Yunkuan.

"Since you don't admit it, I'll ask you bluntly."

"In fact, I have long suspected you. Your mentality is too bad. It does not meet the requirements of the Creed at all. I have met two members of the Creed, but neither of them is as easily nervous as you."

Hu Yunkuan replied with gritted teeth.

"Creed selects people based on their beliefs, not their psychological qualities!"

"Oh, it's hard to believe that someone who doesn't even have basic psychological qualities would be willing to sacrifice for a belief."

Wu Xian was sarcastic and every word he said hit Hu Yunkuan right in the throat.

"You have been using the Creed to command us, but you always fail at critical moments and put us in danger many times. Isn't this intentional?"

Hu Yunkuan lowered his head, his face turned red and white, and he was speechless for a while.

After a moment he raised his head and pointed at Lao Zhao next to him.

"What about him? He's obviously more suspicious than me!"

"There are seven people who entered the tomb in the guest room. The six evil spirits corresponding to me, you, Du'e, Guan Daorong, Huang Anzong and Huo Gai have all appeared before, but the only evil spirit corresponding to him is one that we have never seen!"

After hearing this, Guan Daorong and Du E looked at Lao Zhao together. They also found it very strange.

Mr. Zhao sweat dropped all of a sudden: "That's an evil spirit. How do I know what the evil spirit is thinking? Maybe it's still hiding?"

Wu Xian shook his head and said.

"This doesn't prove Lao Zhao's suspicion. I can't tell you the reason, but the evil spirit staring at Zhao Shengguo is special, so it's not surprising that it didn't show up!"

Hu Yunkuan started shouting again. Now the only way to clear his suspicion was to put the blame on Lao Zhao.

"Then, what about the jar? He threw the chamber pot right next to Guan Daorong, causing Guan Daorong to suffer. Could this be a coincidence?"

Guan Daorong's face changed.

After a moment he shook his head again.

"It's all his fault that I became like this, but... I have to say that Zhao Shengguo is a loser. It's not surprising that he was frightened and did anything. Besides, there were jars all around me at the time. Even if he wasn't there, I would still be affected."

"More importantly, he saved my life by knocking the fashionable monster away. If he wanted to harm me, there would be no need to save me."

Hu Yunkuan was breathing rapidly, his brain was working quickly, and suddenly an idea came to him.

"Yes, he saved you. That fashionable ghost was very careful all the time and didn't reveal any flaws. But when facing Zhao Shengguo, he trusted him with his back, which allowed him to successfully launch a sneak attack..."

Old Zhao felt even more aggrieved: "I don't know why, but I, Zhao Shengguo, swear to heaven that I am not evil."

Wu Xian suddenly shouted.

"Alright, stop quibbling. The evil spirit ignored Lao Zhao only because he acted like a coward. Who doesn't think so? We can all think so, so why can't the evil spirit do the same?"

"Let me ask you, what is the next sentence of Die for the Living, Live for the Dead?"

Hu Yunkuan was suddenly stunned, his face had turned red: "I...I...I don't know."

Wu Xian sneered and said, "It is to stick to one's heart and follow through on one's creed!"

"These are words that every member of the Creed will never forget, but you don't know them. What excuses do you have now?"

　I wish you all a happy May Day, everyone, and then I will type at home, woooo, people who type have no holidays.
