Folklore: Pre-emptive shelter begins with the stomach.

After seeing off Feng Fugui and his daughter,

Feng Mo pondered the news brought by the father and daughter repeatedly in his mind.

It wasn't because of his second son,

Rather, it was because Master Feng was actually a backup plan left behind by the master family. Now that the ghost disaster had just broken out, this matter could be considered a blessing in disguise, and it also thwarted the master family's scheme, which made Feng Mo breathe a sigh of relief.

The fact that the Feng family is now willing to make this matter public shows that they have no ulterior motives and have truly pledged their allegiance to us.

This time, Mr. Feng brought some gifts with him.

It was all just gold, silver and valuables, which were of no use to him.

In the time that followed, Feng Mo continued to cultivate the Heart Palace.

The previous spirit stone had been completely exhausted, turning into a handful of white powder.

Seeing this, Feng Mo took out the disaster stones and exchanged them in advance, exchanging three stones at once for future use.

I was lucky; the three spirit stones randomly yielded two brand new attributes.

Two items with the "Durable" attribute: provide 1.5 times the aura;

Another item has the entry for "photosynthesis": it will automatically recharge when placed in sunlight before its spiritual energy is depleted.

Both entries are very useful and can save him a lot of disaster stones.

Now, as his cultivation deepens, he can clearly feel that his demand for spirit stones has also increased significantly.

The day continued like this until evening.

Now that there are eight arrow towers, Feng Mo no longer needs to do everything himself.

The outer perimeter was guarded by arrow towers, and wooden traps were laid in close proximity. Whether near or far, Feng Mo's Musashi Temple defenses were impregnable.

Perhaps because they had survived the first wave of the demonic calamity's aftermath,

The number of strange creatures has decreased significantly, but compared to the previous few days, the number has increased slightly tonight.

That night, Feng Mo killed more than forty strange creatures.

Furthermore, to allow the arrow towers to upgrade faster, he even stopped the other six arrow towers from attacking.

Only leave the arrow tower awaiting upgrade and the "Mejai's Soulstealer" arrow tower to deal damage, allowing them to stack their layers faster.

To maximize profits.

The current anomalies are only appearing in waves, not yet reaching the level of a cataclysmic event. Two arrow towers are more than enough to deal with them.

Even so, it will take about two days to upgrade the arrow tower to the second tier.

The night passed peacefully.

Early the next morning, someone came to visit Feng Mo's Musashi Temple.

The person who arrived was Feng Nuonian.

She stood outside the door and instructed the servants to move the furniture into Musashi-dera Temple.

Having witnessed the environment of Musashi-no-Miyako, she knew better than anyone what Feng Mo needed most.

Feng Mo did not stop it.

I just watched from afar.

It's clear that Feng Nuonian is in a very good mood today.

Before long, Feng Nuonian walked toward Feng Mo, who was watering the fields.

Seeing Feng Mo personally watering the vegetables, she was quite surprised—after all, ordinary farm boys might not even look up to this kind of farm work.

But then I thought, crops that a young master from a prominent family would personally water must be extraordinary.

So she began to examine the seedlings in the field.

Actually, she noticed these little gray sprouts yesterday.

She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she felt that the gray wheat seedlings had grown taller than yesterday. Moreover, a thin red line was clinging to the middle of the gray-green seedlings, making them seem like a very special variety.

In all her life, this was the first time she had ever seen such gray wheat seedlings.

This piqued her intense curiosity.

She opened her mouth, but what came out was: "Do you need me to arrange a few servants for you here? I remember you've always been alone, haven't you? After all, Third Young Master, your status is noble. It's better to leave these tasks to the servants."

After thinking it over, Feng Nuonian ultimately decided not to bring up the matter of gray wheat seedlings.

On the one hand, it was out of courtesy, and on the other hand, she felt that such private matters should only be asked between friends.

In her eyes, the Third Young Master is now an unreachable mountain, no longer the boy she used to talk to. Even though he had said those things to her after they fell into the water.

As she thought about it, Feng Nuonian blushed and turned her head away.

Feng Mo hesitated for a moment at Feng Nuonian's suggestion, then shook his head:

"Never mind, I'm used to the peace and quiet of living alone."

More importantly, the "Sultan's Loan" was his personal secret, and the presence of other outsiders would inevitably attract unwanted attention. Even if the "faded" individuals could be used as an excuse, caution was always the right thing to do, a belief that Feng Mo consistently upheld even in the face of personal power.

Feng Nuonian nodded.

Without saying anything more,

Instead, she changed the subject: "The bowl of water you gave me yesterday, Third Young Master, was effective for Second Sister. After drinking it, she didn't have that dream again that night, and her complexion even improved a lot the next day."

She also took the initiative to talk to her father for a long time, which made him very happy.

Aside from yesterday, I haven't seen my father this happy in a long time.

Feng Mo was also surprised by this.

The talisman water was originally meant to ward off evil spirits, but he hadn't expected it to be so effective.

But this also proves that the two Feng sons were not just having a simple nightmare, but that she was truly haunted by evil spirits.

"It's good that it works. The thing that happened to your second brother was also caused by ghosts. Did you bring some wooden buckets for fetching water this time?"

"Yes, yes." Feng Nuonian had come prepared.

Dazhuang and Erzhuang worked together to carry a wooden bucket. After Feng Mo reminded them, Xiaoqing directed them to fetch water.

At this moment, only Feng Nuonian and Feng Mo remained in the courtyard.

Feng Mo looked at the newly furnished Musashi Temple, complete with bowls and chopsticks, and finally he no longer had to use that broken bowl with half a piece missing.

Feng Nuonian, of course, did not overlook Xiaobai.

The fact that the Third Young Master only brought this one dog with him back then shows how important it was to him. So when she was buying things, she made a special effort to prepare one for Xiaobai as well.

They built a small wooden doghouse and also provided a special food bowl.

Right now, Xiaobai is comfortably lying in her new home.

"Miss Nuonian is very thoughtful," Feng Mo said, looking at Feng Nuonian.

But Feng Nuonian shook his head:

"Compared to what Young Master Feng has done, what I have done is nothing at all."

Her words piqued Feng Mo's curiosity.

Judging from her response this time, she must have had some interaction with him before, or rather, with the original owner of this body. He went through all of the original owner's philandering partners, but couldn't recall this woman at all.

Although the original owner was a womanizer,

But he remembers every single woman he has ever messed with clearly.

As the saying goes, when you walk through a field of flowers, even a single petal will stick to you.

The original owner could remember every single "petal" that had stuck to her body.

But he had absolutely no recollection of the woman in front of him.

This puzzled Feng Mo greatly.

However, adhering to the principle of avoiding trouble, he still spoke up:

"Just stating the facts."

Now that Miss Nuonian's second brother has been confirmed to be troubled by something strange, I wonder how much you know about this strange phenomenon?

"Let's stick to the facts." Feng Nuonian felt a warmth in his heart at Feng Mo's gentlemanly attitude.

But then he turned his attention to his second brother's matter: "We know very little about that strange thing."

"Could it be related to that strange encounter your ancestors had?"

"No way," Feng Nuonian said. "That monster was jointly suppressed by the three village guards of Jiangbai Village. There is no chance of it surviving."

"Sure?"

"I'm sure!" Feng Nuonian said decisively. "That was just a monster that was about to enter the second tier. After we dealt with that monster, everyone in the village was still worried and even asked the town's guardian to come and handle the aftermath."

That strange creature was terrifying, but it was only a first-tier strange creature.

Of course, there are also bizarre cases where resurrection can be achieved through a medium.

But a first-order anomaly cannot do that; it's something only a third-order anomaly can accomplish, and even among second-order anomalies, it's extremely rare.

Feng Mo nodded, relieved.

This way, one possibility can be ruled out—

A new, eerie phenomenon has befallen Feng Nuonian's second sister.

"Then tell me what you know about this sneaky appearance."

"My sister told me that in her dream it was an image of someone wearing a black gauze hat or a red-tasseled brocade crown, dressed in a bright red brocade robe, with a jade belt around its waist and black boots on its feet."

Feng Mo raised an eyebrow slightly.

This figure clearly resembles a groom.

"What about the surrounding environment?"

"Uh... red candles burning brightly, a bright red brocade quilt embroidered with phoenixes singing in harmony, red curtains, and bronze wine cups."

Upon hearing Feng Nuonian's response,

Feng Mo became even more certain of his thoughts.

It's both the groom and the bridal chamber...

This is bizarre. Could it be that they really mistook Feng Nuonian's second brother for their bride?
