Chapter 30: Mysterious Mission

  As soon as I entered, I saw the master sitting in the middle of the sofa, dressed in a suit and tie, drinking tea. On his left was a woman in her 40s who looked somewhat similar to Mo Han, smiling and chatting with the master. On his right was an old man wearing a military uniform, with many stripes and epaulets on his chest, looking like a lieutenant general, sitting proudly with a cigarette in his hand.

  "Brother Meng Fei, hug!" Suddenly, a little girl wearing a red skirt in the living room rushed towards me, looking very cute. The master and those two people looked at us three, everyone's eyes were on me.

  "Cheng Ying, stop causing trouble. Your elder brother didn't provoke you, hurry up and go to the side." The middle-aged woman scolded Cheng Ying like she was scolding a little kid, and Cheng Ying pouted her small mouth before running off to the side.

  "You three are back, is this Meng Fei?" asked the old man in military uniform with a smile.

  "Meng Fei, this is your second aunt and third uncle!" The master said, pointing to the middle-aged woman and the old man in military uniform.

  "Second Master, Third Master!" I hastily knelt down, knocked my head a few times, and then stood up straight. Mo Han and the others were standing behind me with serious faces, while little girl Cheng Ying was standing at the very back. I didn't realize that our current formation already indicated they had acknowledged me as their Big Senior Brother. The middle-aged woman smiled faintly, and Master nodded his head.

  "Alright, all of your senior brothers and sisters are older than you and started earlier, but everyone acknowledges you, which makes me very pleased. However, your two uncles are also highly skilled individuals who want to test you once, and this time it's about the national task." My master smiled at me with some praise, then turned his head to an old man wearing a military uniform and said: "General Cheng, please tell them."

  The old man nodded, first smiling and scolding his master: "Big brother, can't you not bully this old man? My name is Cheng Ming, don't let you call it. Look at Mo Ling's sister, she's much gentler than you." The master smiled but didn't speak, while the middle-aged woman kicked the old man, who quickly dodged and transformed into a phantom, appearing in front of us three.

  "You dare to speak ill of my brother, I'll beat you to death." The middle-aged woman scolded and said, the master's face turned red. The old man called Cheng Ming hurriedly coughed, "Cough... let's talk about the main topic now."

  Watching several seniors making a scene, the atmosphere suddenly relaxed a lot and wasn't so tense anymore. I saw two of my uncles for the first time and was very nervous in my heart. The old man finally told us about this matter.

  Archaeologists in our country recently discovered the tomb of Empress Wu Zetian of the Tang Dynasty, but the tomb had been dug up by grave robbers and a large number of artifacts were looted by nearby villagers. It was a large tomb with several small chambers around it, all of which had been emptied, but the main chamber remained intact. Archaeologists found the bodies of several grave robbers at the entrance to the main chamber. The villagers who had looted the artifacts also fell mysteriously ill, and the livestock in the village were eaten raw. One by one, the villagers died under strange circumstances.

  The country has already sent troops to occupy the place, and several villages near the ancient tombs have been completely sealed off. The death toll is approaching 100 people, but no epidemic viruses such as plague have been found. Just a while ago, I went with your Shifu to take a look, and it seems that there are rumors of hungry ghosts appearing. This matter is very serious, if not handled properly, it will affect the local cities and villages, killing even more people.

  So, our Mao Shan Sect was assigned by the country to deal with the strange things there. You may not know that the ancestors of our Mao Shan Sect have always been doing things for the country. We belong to a mysterious department. Anyone who joins Mao Shan is considered a member of this department. Meng Fei's information has already been reported, and you are no exception.

  Then, the masters told us about the division of labor for several people. This time, we disciples went to help guard the nearby villages. If a hungry ghost appears, notify the master immediately to handle it. We must first eliminate the evil spirits that escaped from the ancient tomb, and then find the source to deal with this matter. Incidentally, help archaeologists open the main chamber of the tomb, because the main chamber is too mysterious, plus the death of the tomb robbers, no one dares to step in easily.

  "Meng Fei, Mo Han, you two are the eldest senior brother and second senior sister. The other two disciples will be under your command. If there's anything, discuss it among yourselves and notify me immediately if something comes up. Your third uncle will arrange for the troops to cooperate with you in handling any unexpected events." Our master had spoken, and the middle-aged woman also nodded at Mo Han. We both nodded in response.

  The matter was settled, and the master arranged a schedule with the two masters, also letting us siblings get familiar with each other and bond. That little sister Jing quickly ran to my side, pulled on my clothes, I smiled at her, and then saw this little girl's hand tremble, and suddenly my whole body started itching.

  Before long, my body was covered with small red spots, extremely itchy. I felt something was wrong and rushed to the hospital's shower room for a bath. However, after bathing, the itchiness worsened. I told ** about this, and they asked me to go find Mo Han.

  The second floor has five rooms, and the masters are still discussing things, so let's choose one to rest. Mo Han and Cheng Ying live next door to me, **and I live together, and the remaining three rooms belong to the three masters.

  I walked into Mo Han's room with a nervous heart, Cheng Ying that little girl might have gone out to play. As soon as I entered the door, I didn't see her, but saw that the clothes in the room were messy, and the sound of water was loud. Mo Han heard the footsteps in the bathroom and shouted: "Who is it? Is it Cheng Ying? Help sister pass a bottle of shampoo, hurry up!"

  I was about to leave, but when I heard this sentence, I really didn't know what to do. Should I tell her that I'm Meng Fei? What am I doing in her room at three o'clock in the morning? Forget it, I'll just give her the shampoo, she definitely won't open the door and see me, after handing it over, I'll leave, she'll know who I am.

  Thinking like this, I picked up a bottle of Head & Shoulders shampoo on the table and rushed towards the shower room. When I got there, I was stunned - the door to the shower room was actually transparent! There were some floral patterns on the glass, and Mo Han's beautiful figure was vaguely visible inside, making my arteries burst with excitement. Brother, what can I do?

  "Hurry up, give me the shampoo, I'm waiting to use it!" Mo Han closed her eyes, her whole body was wet, and she opened the shower room door, stretching out one hand. I quickly handed over the shampoo in my hand, she closed her eyes, opened it, applied a lot to her head, and started washing under the shower water. As I looked at her fair and perfect figure, my nosebleed suddenly burst out, and I forgot to leave.

  "Alright, Cheng Ying, you go play now. Sister will call you when she's done washing up. Don't run around randomly, or I won't be responsible if you get lost!" Mo Han instructed while washing her hair.

  I finally reacted and was about to leave after opening the door, when Mo Han's voice came from behind, "Don't torture people with your flower powder, Meng Fei is a good guy, that stuff will rot your skin if used too much." I suddenly felt a chill, and finally remembered why I had come looking for her.
