Chapter 31 Xu Family
Chi Jiangdong, who has been a lucky star since childhood, naturally doesn't understand how unlucky a person can be.

Misfortunes never come singly. There are numerous calamities and disasters. They come out of nowhere and the mission goes wrong... We all perish together!
When Chi Jiangdong choked while drinking water, choked while eating, encountered accidents while walking, and almost suffocated to death while sleeping... he finally understood what Xu Shanshan meant by "bad luck".

Every night his mind was filled with all kinds of indignant words, which encouraged himself to face the "disasters" that would come tomorrow bravely and positively.

The situation in Jiashan is slightly better.

Compared with Chi Jiangdong's high-risk and high-risk state, he just caught a cold and kept coughing. Just after he recovered from the illness, he got typhoid fever again. The wound left by Chen Wang's surprise attack that night was infected. He could only take bowls of bitter medicine one after another and was forced to stay indoors.

The Tang family has been very busy these days.

On the one hand, he had to clean up the corpses in the old house, bury the loyal Kuiwu in the family, contact old subordinates to find out the direction of the court, establish a friendly and harmonious relationship with General Huo, ask for asylum, and communicate with the city commander to deal with subsequent risks...

After Xu Shanshan received thirty years of life from the third master of the Tang family and successfully obtained two magic weapons, his affairs in Jiangling City were basically completed.

There are still three magical instruments to be found and the remaining sins to be atoned for, so she plans to leave Jiangling City.

Maomao asked, "Shan, now that everything in Jiangling City is done, where should we go next?"

"Xu family." She had already made plans.

"The Xu family? Is that the Xu family that adopted Xu Shanshan? Does she have bad karma there too?"

"Yes, and there are quite a few of them. The third magic weapon is also pointing in that direction."

"Then our next trip will be to Donglong. However, since you have made so many enemies in Jiangling City this time, we should first break through the eighth level of Taiyi Divine Numbers and practice some advanced techniques before we set off."

Xu Shanshan nodded: "Of course."

Xu Shanshan's departure was silent, without any farewell or any sign.

When Chi Jiangdong's bad luck improved a little, he found that she was gone.

Chi Jiangdong was angry and anxious and said, "Xu Shanshan is still as greedy as ever. I just borrowed it from her. The Jade-faced Guanyin belongs to my future wife. My mother has repeatedly warned me not to lose it or give it to anyone else. If I gave it to Xu Shanshan, she would definitely twist my head off!"

"No, I have to go find her and give her back!"

The next day, Jiashan felt a little better and learned that Xu Shanshan had left alone, and Chi Jiangdong followed closely.

He didn't say anything, but left the Tang family soon after, leaving only one sentence to San Gong - if I don't go to hell, who will?

Longdong Jianghuai
Unlike the inland hills and plains of Jiangling, Longdong is a coastal town close to the ocean. When people come here, even the wind smells of the sea.

The salt industry in Jianghuai was thriving, commerce was busy, and culture was flourishing. When Xu Shanshan first visited a coastal town, he saw teahouses, taverns, pawnshops, and workshops on both sides of the street...

There are also small vendors holding big umbrellas on the side of the street, displaying all kinds of seafood, including food, daily necessities, decorative ornaments, etc.

She followed the bustling crowds into the city. The streets were wide enough for people riding horses or driving carriages. There were people carrying loads on their shoulders hawking their wares, rough men driving donkeys to transport goods, and people pushing wheelbarrows...

"Everyone, get out of the way! The prison van carrying criminals is coming! Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"

A stern shout came from the front, and a team of soldiers with swords waved their arms and drove the pedestrians away. The pedestrians no longer crowded on the street, but moved away one after another, leaving a clear passage for traffic.

Xu Shanshan naturally retreated to the side, and saw about ten prison vans escorted by government officials coming one after another. Inside were some vicious criminals squatting with handcuffs and shackles on their hands and feet. It was said that they were all fugitives.

"Throw it away!" the official shouted.

The people seemed to be well prepared, carrying baskets filled with rotten eggs, rotten vegetable leaves, and even some fermented dirt.

They hated evil and attacked the criminals fiercely, swearing at them and using insulting and angry words.

Immediately a foul smell spread across the street, and Xu Shanshan tilted his head uncomfortably.

Does this count as hurting the enemy by a thousand and losing your own eight hundred... or are they all so immersed in fighting criminals that they can't smell the stench?
Xu Shanshan inadvertently heard someone next to him say: "Recently, evildoers and refugees from all over Jingguo have come to Longdong. I don't know what's going on. But as long as they dare to do evil in Longdong, they are seeking death!"

"That's right. As long as the Wei family is here, no one can commit crimes in Longdong. Look, I heard that this is a group of bandits. They used to do all kinds of burning, killing and looting in other places, but they were caught as soon as they came to Longdong!"

"Will we send them to the Black Island as usual?"

"Of course, killing them would be too easy for them. It would be best to send all these criminals to Black Island to be tortured and let these evil people kill each other!"

Xu Shanshan really couldn't stand the stench, so after listening to some local situations in silence, he left.

She followed the direction she remembered and walked to the Xu family mansion.

The Xu family was considered a wealthy family in the local area. At that time, the fortune teller handed the young original owner over to the Xu couple to raise him. They took good care of him and provided him with enough food and clothing.

But no one expected that the original owner was not only ungrateful, but also coveted the fiancé of the Xu couple's eldest daughter, and did evil and caused a lot of confusion.

It can be said that the original owner was driven out of the house by the Xu family who hated him so much, and the original owner also resented the Xu family and never set foot in the Xu family again.

She went up and knocked on the door, but no one answered.

When I lowered my eyes, I saw that there was a thin layer of dust on the copper door ring, as if no one had lived there for a long time.

"who are you?"

An old woman suddenly appeared behind me.

Xu Shanshan turned around and saw an old woman in her fifties with gray hair and slightly narrowed eyes that habitually moved left and right. She looked materialistic and cunning.

Judging from the way he is dressed, he should be someone who lives nearby.

"I'm Xu Shanshan. May I ask if the Xu family has moved away?"

"Moving away?" The old woman suddenly looked at her with scrutiny. Seeing that she had an extraordinary demeanor, she asked, "Your last name is Xu, so what is your relationship with this family?"

Xu Shanshan did not answer, but just stared at her quietly. Although she was smiling elegantly, the old woman felt a sense of panic and nervousness.

She obviously realized that the person in front of her was not someone she could afford to offend.

"The Xu family, the Xu family just got into trouble not long ago. The old ones in the family are all dead, and the young ones were exiled to the Black Island. I guess you won't be able to find them if you want to find them."

After she finished speaking, she quickly ran away.

died?

Xu Shanshan ignored the old woman who ran away. She raised her head, and a circle of her dark pupils turned slightly golden. She saw that the sky above the Xu Mansion was filled with dark yin and evil spirits that lingered for a long time. It was a disaster that was about to destroy the entire family and the resentment was gathering.
