Bab 126: Chapter 116: Elder Shi_2

"Lord She, I implore you to seal the alleyway, and let not the little ghost escape."

Yibai requested.

"It shall be done."

Hui Shu, utterly astounded by Yibai's methods, heard the command, and naturally did not refuse. With a leap, he descended upon the alley's mouth, exuding monstrous energy that made it passable only from within but not without.

"I've invited you all here without any intent to harm, but merely to inquire about a matter. The elderly person in the house behind me has gone missing; do any of you know of his whereabouts?"

Yibai bowed with his hands together, courteously asking.

This place gathered most of the land deities of the county. If something had happened to the grandmother, these land deities would surely know where she went.

Hearing what Yibai said and seeing his respectful bow, the little ghosts started to believe that he meant them no harm, and they began whispering among themselves in small groups.
