While in Hollywood, I used Taoist magic to quell American terrorism.

"devil……"

Peggy's tears welled up instantly. She rushed over, wanting to grab Cao Kun's hand, but dared not be too presumptuous, and could only keep rubbing her hands in front of her.

"Sir... Master... please."

I have four children, and Jenny is only eleven years old...

We have nowhere else to go; this is our only home.

Please save us, drive that devil away!

She turned to Mr. and Mrs. Ed: "Mr. Warren, you are sent by the church. Please help me."

Ed's expression was solemn as he gripped the cross tightly in his hand.

Rowling closed her eyes, seemingly sensing something, but soon she clutched her forehead in pain.

"I can't see it."

Rowling opened her eyes, her voice weak: "It has hidden itself, like a fog."

"Tibetan?"

Cao Kun sneered and strode towards the door.

"Since it won't come out, we'll force it out."

"Go and take a closer look."

"Let's split up and search," Ed suggested.

Ed gripped the cross tightly: "I'll go check the kitchen and the backyard."

Rowling, leaning against the wall, said, "I'm going to the attic."

"Wait," Cao Kun called out to them, "Don't separate."

Just kidding, separating horror movies is a big no-no.

Many characters die when they are separated.

It doesn't matter to some small karaoke enthusiasts.

But this is Vallak.

The three began searching the house.

Peggy and the children huddled in the master bedroom on the second floor, not even daring to close the door, staring intently at the sounds coming from the hallway.

Cao Kun walked to the end of the corridor on the second floor.

There was a red cylindrical toy on the ground.

It was an old-fashioned peep show lantern.

Cao Kun recalls that Bill was not the only threat in the movie.

There are other things hidden in this room.

He bent down, picked up the revolving lantern, and gently turned the dial with his fingers.

"Squeak—squeak—"

As the cylinder rotated, a strange, off-key nursery rhyme rang out in the silent corridor.

"There was a hunchbacked man who walked along a winding road..."

The shadows cast on the wall danced as the light fixture rotated.

The shadow on the wall grew longer and longer until it broke free of the wall and became a three-dimensional black shadow.

"Click, click, click."

A cracking sound, like bones being dislocated, rang out.

The dark figure quickly inflated and expanded, transforming into a tall, thin monster wearing a dark red suit and a top hat.

Its hands and feet were disproportionately long and thin, like a clay figure that had been torn apart.

He was also holding a tattered black umbrella in his hand.

A hunchbacked person.

"ah--!"

Peggy, who had been staring down the corridor, let out a piercing scream.

The four children were so frightened that they crawled under the bed.

"Another one...and another one!"

Peggy was trembling all over, her teeth chattering.

We just saw off an old man, and now an even more terrifying monster has appeared.

Just how much dirt is still in this house?

Ed and Rowling were also stunned.

Then they saw the tall, thin, hunchbacked man waving his long arms as he lunged at Cao Kun.

"Watch out!" Ed shouted.

The hunchbacked man moved extremely fast, but his movements were incredibly uncoordinated, like a stop-motion animation jumping frame by frame.

Its slender claws, whistling through the air, aimed straight for Cao Kun's throat.

"court death."

Cao Kun stood still, without moving an inch.

Just as the claws were about to touch him, his right hand shot out.

They came later but arrived first.

He grabbed the hunchback's neck, which was as thin as a withered twig.

"Bang!"

Cao Kun exerted force with his arm and slammed it downwards.

The hunchbacked man, whose body was over two meters tall, was slammed onto the floor.

The wooden floorboards cracked instantly, sending wood chips flying everywhere.

"Awooo—!"

The hunchbacked man let out a strange cry that didn't sound human, and his body twisted like a snake as he tried to break free.

Its power is immense, and it even possesses a tangible texture.

But in the hands of Cao Kun, who was at the fourth level of Body Refinement, it was like a puppet being held down.

"Behave yourself."

Cao Kun raised his foot and stomped heavily on its chest.

A flash of lightning disappeared beneath his feet.

The hunchbacked man convulsed violently, and black smoke billowed from his dark red suit.

It opened its mouth wide, revealing a mouthful of jagged, sharp teeth, and fear finally showed in its eyes.

"Tell me, where is that ghost nun?"

Cao Kun pressed down with his feet and looked down at it.

The hunchback's eyes darted around, and his body trembled incessantly in the lightning.

It opened its mouth, as if about to make a sound.

Sudden--

Its body suddenly arched backward, like a fully drawn bow.

"Crunch! Crunch!"

Its limbs began to break off on their own in a bizarre manner, and its neck was twisted wildly by an invisible force, like a pretzel.

His face showed an expression of extreme pain, and his eyeballs looked like they were about to burst out of their sockets.

"To silence them?"

Cao Kun's eyes turned cold.

He swiftly made a hand seal with his left hand, a golden light flashing at his fingertips, and then suddenly stabbed the hunchback's forehead.

"Break!"

A low shout.

The golden light, like a knife, cut deep into the hunchback's spirit.

"collapse!"

It was as if an invisible thread in the air had been severed.

The hunchback stopped twisting and lay sprawled on the ground like a lump of mud.

Although it survived, its body had shrunk by half, become translucent, and was on the verge of disappearing.

"If you don't want your soul to be scattered, you'd better speak up now."

Cao Kun moved his foot away and looked at it coldly.

The hunchbacked man trembled, glancing fearfully at the surrounding shadows, his voice barely audible:

"She's...here...she's right here..."

"The exact location?"

"I don't know... I really don't know..."

The hunchbacked man covered his head and curled up in a ball.

"She's too strong... I'm just a doorman."

She forced me to stay here, and she drove this family crazy... and you too.

She said she wanted to keep you here... to stay forever...

The Eds frowned.

Even this is bait?

Where exactly is Varak hiding?

"Master Cao..." Rowling walked over, her face pale as she looked at the monster on the ground. "It wasn't lying; I could feel its fear."

Cao Kun nodded.

Since we can't get anything out of them, there's no point in keeping them.

"You can leave now."

Cao Kun flicked the Thunder Department Command in his hand.

"The Five Thunder Orthodox Method, for the Funeral."

boom!

A tiny bolt of lightning struck.

The hunchback didn't even have time to scream before he turned into a wisp of smoke and completely disappeared into the corridor.

"Ding! Killed an E-level ghost, gained 10000 merit points."

Cao Kun turned to look at Peggy's family.

Peggy slumped in the doorway, holding her four children, her eyes glazed over.

In just half an hour, she saw the dead old man and then the second monster.

My worldview has collapsed.

"Mr. Warren..." Peggy looked at Ed, her voice trembling, "Is this house... still habitable?"

Ed opened his mouth, unsure how to answer.

He looked at Cao Kun.

Cao Kun ignored them and walked to the window in the corridor.

The rain was still falling outside, and the sky was as black as ink.

"They've kept it well hidden."

Cao Kun looked at the blurry figure reflected in the windowpane and suddenly narrowed his eyes.

Rowling.

Cao Kun didn't turn around, but suddenly spoke: "You just said you saw the nun's prophecy at home?"

"Yes...yes." Rowling was a little lost in Cao Kun's train of thought.

Cao Kun: "Besides death, what else was mentioned in that prophecy?"
