The house was very spacious and occupied an area of more than one acre.
The walls were all made of green stones, which were sturdy and ancient.
What was a little surprising was that the door of this house was open, unlike the other houses in this area where the doors were locked.
The house was filled with all kinds of flowers and plants. The fragrance of the flowers filled the air and the environment was quiet.
In the innermost part of the house, there was a large antique house with carved beams and painted rafters.
It was obvious that this was a rich family.
But why didn't they move away? Were they not afraid of the monster?
Thinking of this, Akatsuki inadvertently glanced behind her.
She didn't know if the monster was still spying on them.
But with Ye Fan by her side, she wasn't too worried.
"Is anyone here?" Ye Fan reached out and grabbed the copper ring in the mouth of the copper lion on the door. He gently knocked on the wooden door and asked loudly.
Soon, an old man with a cane came out of the house.
The old man looked to be in his sixties. His hair and beard were all white, but his face was ruddy.
"You are …"
The old man slowly walked in front of the two people. He looked at them from head to toe and asked suspiciously.
Of the two people, one was young but had a head full of silver hair. The other was wearing a mask that didn't show his face. He carried a red sword on his back and held a Baihu in his arms. They looked very strange.
The news of the monster in the Li Family Fort had already spread. There were only people who moved out. Who would come here?
"Uncle, may I ask if this is the Li Family's Fort?" Ye Fan cupped his hands at the old man and asked politely.
"Yes." The old man replied, "You are …"
"Oh, we heard that there was a monster here, so we came here to subdue the monster." Ye Fan replied, "Seeing that there was someone here, we took the liberty to come here and ask you about the monster."
"Subdue the monster? You are also here to subdue the monster? "When the old man heard that the two were here to subdue the monster, he immediately frowned and asked.
"Yes, uncle." Ye Fan smiled and said to the old man.
"I think you'd better leave this place quickly. You're still young, don't throw your lives away here." The old man said earnestly to the two of them, "The people who came before all said that they were very powerful and that they could easily exorcise ghosts and catch demons, but in the end, they were nowhere to be found. The two of you are so young, it's obvious that your cultivation is not very high. Let's not bother about this matter. Go, go."
"Uncle, you're wrong," Ye Fan said to the old man with a smile. "The level of cultivation has nothing to do with age. Nezha was able to kill the Third Prince at the age of seven, and Chen Xiang was able to split a mountain to save her mother at the age of sixteen. Aren't they all young? I'm already in my twenties. Why do you say that I can't? "
"This … this …" The old man was at a loss for words.
He didn't expect this young man to be so eloquent and full of fallacious reasoning.
"Uncle, just trust him this once. He's very capable." Akatsuki continued and said to the old man, "Don't be fooled by his young age. There are many demons that have been defeated by him. This time, he'll definitely be able to solve this matter by coming to the Li Family Fort."
"He? Subdued demons? There are many more? "The old man said to Akatsuki suspiciously." I don't believe you. "
This young man was quite good-looking, but subduing demons depended on real ability, not looks.
"Uncle, listen to me …"
Akatsuki still wanted to explain.
Ye Fan held out his hand, indicating that Akatsuki didn't need to say anything more.
"Uncle, since you don't believe us, then we won't force you. Goodbye." Ye Fan saluted the old man and said.
As Ye Fan spoke, he gently waved his sleeves.
Whoosh …
Clouds suddenly rose from beneath the two of them. Auspicious Clouds were born!
The Auspicious Clouds lifted the two of them off the ground and went straight up into the sky.
When the old man saw this, he instantly turned pale with fright!
He hurriedly threw his staff to the side and immediately knelt down on the ground. He sincerely bowed and kowtowed to the two people in the sky!
"Exalted Immortals, this old man's eyes are mortal. I have eyes but no pupils. I didn't recognize Exalted Immortals. Please forgive me, forgive me!" The old man said in fear and trepidation as he kowtowed.
In his opinion, these two people were Immortals from the Heaven Realm. Otherwise, how could they ride the clouds!
Akatsuki, who was in the sky, pursed her lips and smiled.
Ye Fan's move had convinced the old man below, and he thought that the two of them were Immortals from the Heaven Realm.
"Please forgive me, Exalted Immortals. Please forgive me …" The old man said in tears.
Ye Fan slowly lowered the Auspicious Clouds again.
"Uncle, we are humans, not Immortals. Get up, get up." Ye Fan reached out and helped the old man up.
He had achieved his goal.
"You two are really … really not Immortals?" The old man stood up and wiped his tears as he asked the two of them.
"Not all people who can ride the clouds are Immortals." Ye Fan bent down and picked up the staff. He handed it to the old man and said with a smile.
"Now you believe that he is very capable, right? Uncle? "Akatsuki smiled and asked the old man.
"Yes! Yes! " The old man nodded like a chick pecking at rice. "Quick, don't just stand here. Please come in, please come in!"
As the old man spoke, he invited the two of them into the courtyard.
He led the way in front, while Ye Fan and Akatsuki followed behind.
"What is your surname?" Ye Fan looked around the courtyard and asked the old man as they walked.
"This old man's surname is Li," the old man replied. "Out of the ten people in the Li Family Fort, nine of them have the surname Li."
Ye Fan nodded.
"Uncle, you live alone?" Akatsuki asked.
"I have an old woman with a bad leg. She is lying in the house." The old man replied to Akatsuki.
"Seeing that your family is so well-off, why don't you move out like the others?" Akatsuki asked the question in her heart.
"The two of you may not know, but the demon in the Li Family Fort is not like what the outside world says," the old man said. "Although the spiritual creature is a demon, it never disturbs the people. Those people who were looking for the treasure angered it, and that's why they got into trouble. As for those who came to subdue the demon, they didn't understand the reason behind it, and their skills were not as good as the demon. That's why they ended up nowhere to be found. I don't do anything wrong, so I won't be alarmed if I knock on the door in the middle of the night. Why would I move out? Besides, the tree is a thousand feet tall, and the fallen leaves return to their roots. I am already over seventy years old, and my legs are not good. I can't take it anymore. "
Akatsuki's heart skipped a beat when she heard that.
Everything was as Ye Fan had predicted.
"Old man, what about your children? Aren't they worried about the two of you? "Ye Fan asked.
"I have three sons, and they are all low-ranking officers in the army. Now, they have been sent to the border by the imperial court. Sigh," the old man sighed. "In comparison, we miss them more."
Ye Fan fell silent after hearing that.
The three sons of this old man, regardless of whether they were under Zhou Dao's command or the imperial court's command, would inevitably participate in the war in the future. If things went wrong, it was very likely that they would lose their lives on the battlefield.
Akatsuki also sighed and didn't say anything.
The three of them walked into the main house while talking.
"Old woman, we have important guests. Come out and welcome them," the old man shouted as soon as he entered the house.
"Coming, coming."
Just as the old man's voice fell, an old woman's voice came from the house.
Immediately after, the door curtain was lifted, and an old woman with crutches walked out of the house with difficulty.
The old woman's silver hair was neatly combed, and her face was benevolent and kind.
She supported her body with one leg, and dragged the other leg on the ground. It was very inconvenient.
"Greetings to the two important guests." The old woman nodded to the two of them.
"Old woman is too polite. It should be this junior who salutes you." Ye Fan said respectfully to the old woman.
"My old woman's leg is not good, so I can't serve the two important guests. Sit wherever you please." The old woman gestured for the two of them to sit.
Ye Fan stood there and carefully observed the old woman's injured leg.
He was using his X-ray vision to see the meridians in the old woman's leg.
"Sir? Sir? "The old man saw Ye Fan's gaze and immediately greeted him.
"Old man, don't disturb him. He is diagnosing auntie's leg." Akatsuki stopped the old man and said in a low voice.
"You … You mean, my old woman's leg can … can be cured?" The old man asked in surprise.
"Shh … Of course it can." Akatsuki signaled for the old man to be quiet and continued.
Ye Fan's Sky Demon power could reconstruct with a drop of blood. Curing a pair of legs was a piece of cake.
"How did auntie's leg get injured? Why are there shattered rocks in it? "Ye Fan turned his head and asked the old man.
"Sir, you're really amazing. My family's old lady's leg was injured by the flying gravel from the mountain!" The old man said excitedly to Ye Fan.
This young man was really not ordinary. He could see the clues at a glance.
"Several of the meridians in auntie's leg were severed by the shattered rocks." Ye Fan said, "The shattered rocks were embedded in her leg bone, so auntie is unable to walk."
"Sir, I beg you. You have great means, please save my old woman." When the old man heard Ye Fan's words, he immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Ye Fan.
"Old man, quickly get up." Ye Fan quickly helped the old man up and said, "Since I have encountered it, I will not let it go."
"Thank … Thank you, sir …" The old man said with red eyes.
"Hong Ji, help auntie sit down. I will treat auntie." Ye Fan said to Akatsuki.
"Okay." Akatsuki responded and put down Baihu. She quickly walked to the old woman and helped her sit down.
"Old man, go get a basin of hot water and prepare a clean towel." Ye Fan turned his head and said to the old man.
"Ai, ai …" The old man wiped his tears and hurriedly went to prepare.
In a short time, the hot water and towel were ready.
"Hong Ji, hold auntie's leg. I will take out the shattered rocks first." Ye Fan said.
Akatsuki nodded and squatted down to press on the old woman's injured leg.
"Old woman, bear with it. Sir is treating your leg." The old man comforted the old woman.
The old woman nodded as if she understood.
Although she did not know how Ye Fan was going to take out the shattered rocks from her leg, she could feel that this young man was not an ordinary person.
Looking at Ye Fan again, he stretched out one hand toward the old woman's injured leg and bent his five fingers slightly.
Puff …
With a spurt of blood, a scarlet object rushed out of the old woman's leg and flew into Ye Fan's hand.
