Chapter 718: Chapter 715: Bringing About Ruin and Death
Chen Jianjun, who could not see the ghosts, went to the kitchen to wring out the washcloth, and took it into the room to wipe the face of Lu Xiaofen, who had been running around all day and fell asleep as soon as she lay on the bed.
He then took off her shoes and covered her with a blanket.
After that, he quickly washed up and went to bed, but he slept very lightly, wary of the two ghosts causing mischief.
He still didn’t fully believe in what the old man had said, after all, it was only one side of the story and still needed verification.
But Chen Jianjun’s worries were unnecessary. Whenever the Little Princess was asleep, she would habitually release the Dragon’s Prestige to protect the whole room and her family.
In the past, Old Lady Li couldn’t enter the brick house for this reason and had to wait for Ma Xiulian to come out on her own.
The little boy wanted to go into the room to play with the wooden horse, but as soon as he set foot inside, he pulled back as if he had been burned. His face displayed a look of pain: "Grandpa, my leg hurts a lot!"
The old man, sensing the burning pain from the tip of his finger, thought the family had some kind of deity protection and couldn’t barge in!
He soothed his grandson, saying, "Let’s play a game of chess with stones in the yard."
The little boy still retained the innocence of a seven or eight-year-old and was quickly diverted by the game.

The next day.
Chen Jianjun woke up early, washed up, and went to the kitchen to make breakfast.
Seeing that Xiaofen and Guibao, who had been tired for two days, were both still asleep, he let them sleep longer. After meal preparation, instead of waking them up, he went next door.
He had the feeling that his neighbor, who seemed hesitant to speak yesterday, knew something.
"Hello, comrade, I want to ask you about something."
The female neighbor, who was making meals in the kitchen with an apron on, became nervous at his question, thinking that ghosts had appeared again in the next-door room last night.
"Why are you suddenly asking? Has something happened?"
Seeing her nervousness, Chen Jianjun, looking unaffected, said: "No, it’s just that I’ve heard some rumors about the house we’re renting, so I wanted to ask."
The neighbor was relieved to hear this. As long as it wasn’t a ghost happening again!
"Indeed, someone died in the old Zhang family’s house, but that happened over ten years ago," she slowly began. "The Zhang family was a wealthy merchant family, generations of them are scholars, one of their ancestors even scored first place on the imperial examination. They were philanthropic and decent people. However, their only son died during the war when attending the military service."
"The daughter-in-law was so devastated by grief that she committed suicide by hitting a coffin. The household was left with a very old and a very young member. Zhan’s grandson was trying to protect his grandfather when he was pushed by someone. He hit his head on the edge of a table and died instantly. The old man lost his last hope and soon passed away."
As she continued the story, the neighbor let out a long sigh.
All these she knew were experienced firsthand by her husband when he was a child, and it was tragically sad!
Despite having done nothing wrong, their lives were devastated, it was pitiful and sorry!
If it really was the ghost of Master Zhan out for revenge, then Zhan Zaiqian deserved it!
After hearing this, Chen Jianjun felt heavy, but his face did not reveal it. "So it’s like that, then I can rest assured, thank you, comrade."
"It’s nothing, we’re neighbors after all!" The female neighbor waved her hand dismissively.
Chen Jianjun turned around and left but he didn’t rush back home.
