Chapter 237 Firearms are so useful!
He said with a sinister look in his eyes, "You people think you can cause trouble at the Xu family just because you know a little martial arts? Let me tell you, you're not qualified!"

Upon seeing the gun in his hand, Leng Huaixin and the photographer were both shocked, and a hint of apprehension appeared in Leng Huaixin's eyes.

Leng Huaixin quickly said, "Don't be impulsive. We were wrong just now. We are willing to apologize to the old man!"
"For the sake of the business relationship between my father and me, put down the gun first!"

Leng Huaixin was negotiating with the old man, asking him to put the gun away, but Liu Qingyan felt something was amiss.

Jiang Nanxi did not make a move while they were dealing with the Xu family.

Because the photographer didn't know kung fu, he and Leng Huaixin were worried that the photographer would be attacked, so they fought as they retreated towards the courtyard gate, intending to break the barrier once they got close to the gate.

But Jiang Nanxi is standing near the mourning hall, at the very back of the courtyard.

That's why, after firing his gun, the old man immediately grabbed Jiang Nanxi and pointed the gun at her.

Why did she go to the funeral hall?

Weren't we far from the mourning hall just now?

Just as Liu Qingyan was wondering, Jiang Nanxi slowly spoke up, "Old man, is your gun any good?"

"It works, of course it works," the old man said coldly. "If I make the slightest move, you can just wait to ascend to heaven."

Jiang Nanxi nodded. "If it works well, that's good. To tell you the truth, I also like using firearms."

Jiang Nanxi threw away the wooden stick in her hand.

The commotion startled the others, who thought she was about to throw away the stick and pull out a gun as well.

But after waiting for a long time, Jiang Nanxi didn't make any move and just stood there.

Xu Fan, who was not far away, immediately breathed a sigh of relief. "What nonsense are you spouting? I thought you had a gun too! Have you ever used a firearm? Don't just stand there talking!"

The old man had a gloomy face and looked at Jiang Nanxi without saying a word, but his gaze clearly relaxed a little.

He was originally prepared to shoot Jiang Nanxi!

As for why the shot was not fired for so long...

He was worried that Jiang Nanxi might eat the food at the banquet and have her soul taken away by the spirit guide. If he killed her directly, it would be useless to the old man!

Actually, he just wanted to scare the two men into stopping, then use Jiang Nanxi as a hostage and kill the three men first.

The old man thought for a moment, then called out to Xu Fan, "Come here and search her body to see if she has any firearms!"

Xu Fan walked over, looking at Jiang Nanxi with ill intent. "Little girl, you have a nice figure. Let your brother search you to see just how good your figure is."

His hand was about to touch Jiang Nanxi's coat when a cracking sound of bones breaking rang out.

Liu Qingyan appeared beside Xu Fan at some point and twisted off the hand he had extended.

"Ah! You—you—!"

Xu Fan screamed in agony, clutching his broken right hand, and collapsed to the ground, his face deathly pale.

The old man didn't even see Liu Qingyan's movements clearly. By the time he reacted, Liu Qingyan had already snatched the pistol from his hand.

"Hot weapons are indeed useful."

Liu Qingyan sneered and pressed the gun against the old man's temple. "You old man, you're helping the dead harm others. I might as well send you to see the old master of the Liu family right now!"

The old man was also a semi-Taoist, possessing some strange and unusual skills, but he did not expect Liu Qingyan to move so fast that he could not even see his movements!
The old man felt a cold object pressed against his temple, and his voice trembled slightly as he said, "Young man, let's talk this out."

Liu Qingyan scoffed, "Why didn't you talk to us properly just now? Tell us, why did those people who came to mourn the old man die mysteriously not long after they left? Did you do something about it?"

"How can someone die for no reason? What nonsense are you talking about!"

The old man's eyes flickered with guilt, and he dared not look at Liu Qingyan. "Many people in this village have come to mourn and eat, and they are all still alive and well, aren't they? Don't slander our Xu family!" Leng Huaixin said, "Indeed, not everyone died. They were all women, and their souls left their bodies!"

If I'm not mistaken, there's something wrong with your food; it can cause anyone who eats it to die, their soul leaving their body!

As for why only women died, it must be because the old man needed the living souls of women!

Bang.

Liu Qingyan fired directly, but instead of killing the old man, he killed a member of the Xu family who was not far away.

He said coldly, "Your whole family is no good. You can stay silent if you want, but if you don't talk for five minutes, I'll kill one member of the Xu family. If you don't talk for ten minutes, I'll kill two. Let's see how long you can last."

"I said it, I said it!"

The old man trembled with fear and hurriedly said, "We did everything according to the old man's instructions before he passed away. He left us a large sum of money so that we could hold a funeral for him and invite people to a feast."

As for the woman who attended the banquet, I don't know why she inexplicably lost her soul. It must have been the old man who did it!
If you really want to know what happened, just go ask him in the grove of dead trees outside the village; his cenotaph is there!

"A cenotaph?"

Leng Huaixin looked puzzled. "He's already dead, and we've brought his body back. Why bother with a cenotaph? Why not just make a proper burial site?"

The old man stammered and didn't say anything.

Upon seeing his demeanor, Liu Qingyan knew that he was concealing a lot of crucial information, probably pretending not to know, and trying to lure them into the deadwood forest.

It's absolutely dangerous in the woods!

"Not honest yet?"

A hint of displeasure flashed in Liu Qingyan's eyes. He was about to fire again to finish off another member of the Xu family when someone suddenly shouted in the mourning hall.

"Why is this coffin open? Didn't they say the old man had been dead for several months? This body looks no different from a living person! There's not a single sign of decay!"

Everyone turned to look over there.

The person next to the coffin was a photographer; his miniature camera was even used to take a picture inside the coffin.

He appeared here when Jiang Nanxi signaled him to come over during the confrontation between Liu Qingyan and the old man.

Viewers were startled when a gray-white old man's face suddenly appeared in the live stream, but some quickly realized that something was wrong with the corpse.

Holy crap, this is so scary in the middle of the night!

[I knew something was fishy about the Xu family's situation! Photographer, you've got guts!]

Look at this dead old man's face, how come he doesn't have a single wrinkle? He's been dead for months and hasn't decomposed, so how come he doesn't have any wrinkles?

[Am I going to turn back the clock?]

While the audience was still reeling from the shock, Jiang Nanxi suddenly said, "Didn't you all say I didn't have any firearms? Actually, I used them a long time ago, didn't you notice?"

The old man looked at her in confusion, "Where did you use it?"

"Use it on the old man."

"That coffin...you opened it?"

"Yeah, I even put two timed grenades in the old man's butt. Haha, have you bumpkins ever seen timed grenades before?"

This is my first time using it too! This is high-end stuff used by foreign mercenaries. Let me show you something new!

"??????"
