Pa pa—
"As expected of Zhang Da Xian's disciple, showing no mercy to ordinary people..."
The iron gate was opened, and a figure that shouldn't have appeared stood before me. Behind her followed two men in camouflage uniforms. Their chests were bulging, and it was obvious they were hiding weapons.
Seeing Widow Ma suddenly appear, I felt an urge to rush forward and choke her to death.
Her sudden appearance at Wang Mazi's house indicated a significant problem. Furthermore, she was among the crowd when leaving the village, a faint smile on her face. Now she appeared in the detention room. If I still couldn't confirm she was the one setting me up, I deserved to be tricked to death.
"Who exactly are you?"
If you told me she was Widow Ma, I wouldn't believe you even if you beat me to death. Widow Ma was just a woman with a difficult fate. Although a bit flirtatious, it was only to survive; she didn't possess such great influence.
"Does it matter who I am? Just think of me as Widow Ma..."
"If you won't say, then so be it. I don't want to know. The innocent will remain innocent. No matter who you are, I advise you not to play games. With just these two shrimp soldiers and crab generals you brought, I can still make you end up like them."
This wasn't me being alarmist. If it were truly Widow Ma, I might not be able to do anything to her. After all, Widow Ma hadn't killed anyone or harmed any lives. Using the same methods I used against Bald Scarface might not be effective.
Since it wasn't her, she must have some karma attached to her. Using the methods against Bald Scarface would likely be effective.
"I'm so scared!"
Widow Ma feigned fear, taking two steps back, and patted her ample chest. "However, if you really do something to me, you might not have a place in the Feng Shui world anymore..."
As she spoke, Widow Ma took out a tablet computer, tapped it twice, and a screen appeared. Seeing the image, I was so shocked I almost bit off my tongue.
"You... this..."
The image displayed was none other than my actions in the detention room just moments ago. If it were merely beating Bald Scarface, I wouldn't be surprised or scared.
After all, they made the first move, and I was merely forced to retaliate. Even if they wanted to convict me, it would only be a dozen days of detention, which was nothing.
What truly surprised me was that the video captured the "people" filling the room – the spirits I summoned to deal with Bald Scarface. Even the scene of the little girl speaking to me at the end was clearly displayed, with the audio intact.
"You... how did you do that?"
Normally, ghosts cannot be captured by modern electronic devices. Yet, the video Widow Ma showed me not only captured the appearance of a hundred ghosts but also the sound of me conversing with them. If this hadn't just happened, I would have thought she had faked it.
If ordinary people saw this video, they would at most think it was fabricated or a movie scene. But if an Yin-Yang master saw it, they could easily discern its authenticity. At that point, I wouldn't be able to explain myself, even with a hundred mouths.
"I can't tell you how I did it for now. If you answer a few questions honestly, perhaps I can give this to you..." Widow Ma shook the tablet in her hand, her expression clearly confident she had me cornered.
My face darkened. I said, "You might be disappointed if you think you can use this to deal with me."
Although my hands were cuffed, my feet were not. I pushed off with my feet, leaping in front of her, and slammed the tablet onto the ground. Then, I stomped on it several times until it shattered into pieces.
During this process, Widow Ma did not stop me, nor did her expression change.
"Stomp harder. If you still feel unsatisfied, I have several more tablets..."
Her words deflated me like a pricked balloon. How could I forget this? She took out the video in front of me, meaning she must have backups. Otherwise, how could she have taken it out so easily?
Damn it, I was being played like a monkey.
"What exactly do you want? How?"
Widow Ma flicked her hair. "I don't want anything. I just want to ask you a few questions, and I hope you answer them honestly."
Answer a few questions?
Her words made me vigilant. After all the trouble she went through to get me into the detention room, it couldn't be as simple as asking a few questions. If she truly wanted to ask questions, she could have done so at my master's house. Why go to such lengths to bring me here to ask?
It seemed the information she wanted to know was not simple at all.
"What do you want to ask?"
Widow Ma's smile vanished, and she looked at me seriously. "Have you ever entered the True Dragon Tomb?"
Upon hearing the words "True Dragon Tomb," my heart skipped a beat. How did she know about the True Dragon Tomb?
Besides myself, only one other person knew about my entry into the True Dragon Tomb, and that was Li Zuo Quan. However, I had trapped him within the True Dragon Tomb.
Furthermore, I hadn't told anyone about this. Even Zhang Da Biao didn't know I had entered the True Dragon Tomb. As for Widow Ma knowing about it, it was likely she inquired on behalf of someone else.
Understanding the cause and effect, I looked at her with a mocking expression. "Entered the True Dragon Tomb? Do you think I'm the Son of Destiny, able to enter whenever I please? I can't even get past a widow's door, let alone the True Dragon Tomb. You really think highly of me..."
"You..."
Widow Ma glared at me with annoyance, but then her expression calmed down.
"Song Qing Yun, it's good that you answer this question honestly. Yes or no. You know this question is directly related to the lives of your loved ones. You should think carefully before answering... If you answer incorrectly, your father might..."
"Widow Ma, you're playing with fire..."
We were less than half a meter apart. I reached out with both hands and controlled her. The two men who came with her didn't react at all. By the time I had her by the neck with the handcuffs, they finally pulled out their pistols.
"Let her go, or we won't be polite..."
Facing the threat to her life, Widow Ma showed no fear. She didn't even blink, appearing as if she had long accepted death, as if life and death were someone else's business and had nothing to do with her.
"You should think carefully. It doesn't matter if I die, but what about your father? Your master?"
"Damn it..."
I pushed her away. I looked at her with icy eyes.
"My master and father were arrested by you?"
Widow Ma shook her head. "I don't have that kind of ability, but that doesn't mean others don't. I'll ask you again, have you entered the True Dragon Tomb?"
"I..."
