The fortune telling was so accurate that I accidentally accumulated a huge amount of merit!

Chapter 1070 What an understanding and compassionate mirror! (2 updates)
The sign simply read: "[The house's layout has been compromised; please be extremely careful!]"

The man's eyes flickered, and he handed the paper in his hand to the others to see, while at the same time he drew out his magical artifact.

He gripped it tightly, then slowly moved toward the door, his expression wary.

The others were also alarmed when they saw the words on the paper.

They had been inside the house for quite some time, but they were completely unaware that someone else was also inside.

They were even being stared at the whole time, a feeling that sent chills down their spines.

The only young girl in the team immediately showed a look of panic in her eyes.

She subconsciously moved closer to her senior brother, as if that would give her some sense of security.

If this person had harbored ill intentions towards them from the beginning, they probably wouldn't even know how they died.

At that moment, they knew clearly that this person was far more dangerous than the howling of ghosts.

"Senior...brother, I..."

Noticing that his junior sister's voice was trembling, the leading man glanced back at her.

"It's alright. If he had any ill intentions towards us, he would have already attacked us, and he wouldn't have written us a note."

These words were meant to comfort the rest of the team, and also to comfort himself.

At this moment, the entire team finally realized that doing missions outside was completely different from their usual drills.

Real missions will inevitably encounter various unpredictable factors.

The mere thought that someone they couldn't possibly discover was enough to make anyone's face turn pale.

"Senior brother, why don't we retreat first and come back to check the situation during the day?"

In the dead of night, not only are there these ghostly wails and howls, but there are also people hiding in the shadows.

Unbeknownst to them, the danger had increased many times over; after all, they were still young.

The leader, who had previously thought he shouldn't back down because of a little trouble, now dared not stay there any longer.

If he insists on going his own way, and any member of the squad gets injured or killed, he can't bear the responsibility.

"Okay, let's retreat first and come back during the day."

The small team quickly packed their things and left without looking back.

They didn't even turn off the lights inside the Zhou family's house.

It's unclear whether they forgot or were worried that the darkness would increase their danger.

In less than a minute, the small team had completely evacuated.

Yunran: ...

Her intention was simply to remind these people not to make any rash decisions now that the house's layout had been compromised and the danger had doubled.

As a result, these people simply ran away.

They didn't even close the Zhou family's gate; they just ran away!

"Master, I think they were frightened by you~"

Yunran reached out and flicked the little paper figure on the head.

"Am I, your master, really that scary? I was just trying to be helpful and remind them. Who knows what kind of ideas they might come up with in a moment of impulsiveness?"

Yunran considered many possibilities and felt that these people would at most listen to her advice and then do nothing.

We waited patiently for dawn to break before re-investigating the situation here.

But to everyone's surprise, these guys were so frightened that they immediately retreated.

Yun Ran shook her head, then mimicked those old scholars: "These young people nowadays, each generation is worse than the last!"

Little Paper Doll: ? ? ? If I'm not mistaken, those people are young, not much older than their master.

Perhaps some of the oldest among them are even older than the owner.

I don't know how the owner can stand in the position of an elder and give comments without blushing or skipping a beat.

The little paper figure couldn't figure it out, so it simply stopped thinking about it.

"Master, what do we do now? Should we go back to the inn too?"

Yunran emerged from behind the pillar, the dim light inside the room illuminating her brand-new black robe.

"I had that plan, but it's not possible now. Your master isn't some kind of hands-off manager who abandons things halfway through!"

Yunran re-entered the house and touched the soil that had been dug out and then filled back in.

To others, this soil was just ordinary soil.

However, Yunran still sensed a trace of sealing power within the soil.

"Yes, they stumbled upon a clue by accident."

As she spoke, Yunran instructed the little paper figure to dig up some soil from other parts of the alley.

"Yes, Master, I'll go right away!"

After the little paper doll left, Yun Ran was the only one left in the Zhou family mansion.

She closed the courtyard gate, not because she was afraid of scaring anyone in the middle of the night.

I just feel uncomfortable leaving the door open.

Those ubiquitous sounds, like surround sound, came from all directions.

However, these voices had almost no impact on Yunran.

Yunran rummaged through her bag for a while and took out the sealed bronze mirror, along with a compass.

Once the compass is activated, the pointer on it vibrates wildly, like someone having a seizure.

"The fact that even my compass couldn't lock onto it suggests that the owner of this voice is no ordinary person!"

Yunran carefully put the compass away.

Then his gaze fell upon the sealed bronze mirror.

Yun Ran tapped the mirror: "I need your help with something. Okay, light up for me. If not, never mind."

The bronze mirror was sealed by the talisman, but this only sealed its power; it did not mean that it could not hear what Yunran was saying at this moment.

In the past, the bronze mirror would have believed Yunran's words, and if it didn't want to, it would have simply forgotten what she said.

But it was a bronze mirror that had been beaten by Yun Ran, and was even threatened from time to time by its companions who had become stupid.

The bronze mirror was certain that if it didn't agree to help Yunran with something, it would be met with an even more brutal beating.

It is said that when you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. This saying also applies to bronze mirrors.

In particular, the bronze mirror also saw that after Yun Ran put the compass back, she once again grasped the fragment of the divine artifact that could have harmed it.

This is a clear demonstration of coercion and enticement!

The bronze mirror felt aggrieved, but there was nothing it could do; it had no choice but to accept its fate.

Finally, on the somewhat dusty mirror, two large words appeared: 【OK~】

Yunran smiled with satisfaction: "You really are a wonderfully understanding mirror~"

The bronze mirror resented falling into the hands of thieves, but it couldn't even cry.

Immediately, he could only transfer all his resentment to the things Yunran had to do.
