Crimson Red

The inside of the mansion is dark everywhere,but it's fairly clean from the air and the smell so they knew someone is in here

Lihui's mission is to kill but he still doesn't know what to do,for gods like them killing a ghost might be without much consequences

But as the other gods said Lihui is fairly weak for a martial god,he could only hope for Bojing to be reliable

Out of a sudden the entire mansion light up,the two jumps, defensive with their hands up

The situation just kept getting.... somewhat ridiculous

Because what they see is not danger,not of ghost either but many many statues loitered around the entire space

The statues were of a butt of a man,of many different ones,each with their own difference

Lihui almost laugh at this situation because now he finally understands why the 2 stranger in the lake before were unconscious with their butts out

The resident of this mansion is a butt maniac,it seems

Bojing choose a plump looking one, pondering in front of it for a second before saying "this one kinda looks like yours"

Lihui was red all around "yah that's sexual harrasment!!"

"Well arrest me"

Bojing never stops teasing him either

Out of nowhere,crying erupt from one of the room

A wailing of a baby

Bojing and Lihui stared at each other confusedly,no one told them about a baby

They sneaked quietly to the room opening the door as unnoticed as they could,to see a woman,skin pale and thin,sitting with her back facing toward them

And just as Lihui hoped before, Bojing took out his sword, it's his spiritual device,all gods have at least one spiritual device,they contain special powers

Bojing moved toward the woman,slowly and quietly,and when he was almost reaching her

A toy on the ground squeaked,he had unfortunately stepped on it

"Mingxu" The woman called out with a voice so strained with sadness,but her surprise carry a little bit of happiness,but her happiness died down when she saw Bojing and Lihui "who are you both?"

It didn't take long for the two young gods to notice the infant on the woman's lap,maybe 1 - 2 years of age

"I'm very sorry to disturb you,Miss but we're here on a mission,please tell me what you are doing here so we can leave you in peace"

Lihui quickly signalled Bojing to retract his sword, deciding that a peaceful conversation could solve this situation

"Are you gods?Did Mingxu send you?" The woman asks, Lihui is confused because he doesn't know anyone named Mingxu

"Do you know anyone named Mingxu?"he whispered,but Bojing remains silent,maybe he doesn't know

"Yes we are gods,but i apologize i don't know anyone named Mingxu"

"Oh....." Lihui felt pity for her tone,her puffy eyes and the tiredness of her being "it's fine,i can wait longer"

She told them that she's staying here only for a bit,the man Mingxu owned this place and told her that no one would disturb her and let's her stay in this place,for the last 10 years

She became pregnant a year ago and gave birth in the mansion and it has been since then that he saw Mingxu

Before the conversation could go on longer the baby cried,hungry,he seems to be

"We'll leave you now,Miss, May you be well"Lihui wishes her off and they went back

"What could this mean?"Lihui wondered aloud and Bojing who has been quiet all this time suddenly says "we need to go back right now" his tone indicates danger and urgency

"But I'm so close to the merits,just a bit more" Lihui made an expression of a little bit,but Bojing doesn't budge even a bit

"Lihui!listen to me we need to go"

"What is up with you??okay fine I'll stop,go get those two up to the heaven,i need to visit a place"

Bojing was reluctant,but finally he made Lihui pinky promise that he won't get himself involved with this situation even more

So they split ways above on the plain, Bojing is very hurried which concerns Lihui a bit,he thought about leaving with him right away but he's curious about one thing

The rumour the farmer told him,that every 26th of June,a very powerful ghost came to haunt a certain spot in this plain

It was dark out,so he raise his hand,open up his palm and manifest a small flame just enough to light his way and so he went to search for the spot

After a while of searching,the clouds that covered the moonlight all disappeared and the place is lit up with a beautiful serene glow of gloomy grey

Lihui was about to give up when something red catch his eyes and he remembered the words the farmer gave

"Among the greens of endless illusion,blooms flowers of crimson red,there you shall find the spot,that even ghosts so powerful haunts"
