Seeing through stones, the awakening of superpowers

Looking at the expressions of the three people, Lin Xiao knew that this matter might not be simple. Seeing that Baili Song was hesitant to speak, Lin Xiao asked directly:

"What happened? Did the Baili family punish him?"

Bailisong took a deep breath and said:

"We had no idea when he was captured. It was not until the end of the three days that Bailiyi told us about it."

"This person did not return to the Baili Family headquarters, but was imprisoned in another place. When we saw him, his condition was exactly the same as the first person who tried to leave the Baili Family. He had become emaciated and his head had swelled to a huge size."

"When we saw him in this state, we all thought that the Baili family would save him, but the Baili family informed us that they would no longer care about this person and would let him fend for himself. We have to stay there and witness the changes in that person."

Lin Xiao thought that the people of the Baili family were also quite perverted, but Baili Song's voice began to tremble:

"On the second day we lived there, we were shocked when we saw that man again because he was not only thinner, but his skin had also turned gray and white, which made him look particularly creepy."

"Then a day later, the man looked a bit like a mummy. All he had was skin and bones. His skin had turned gray and black, and he would make a hissing sound from time to time. He seemed to want to express something, but he couldn't say anything."

Bailisong let out a light breath, and this time his voice no longer trembled.

"In the end, the man turned into a mummy, and his expression was extremely ferocious and terrifying. I guess he suffered a lot of torture before he died."

Principal Lin was a little surprised and asked directly:

"Just because this person's last state looked like a mummy, you're so scared?"

This reason is a bit far-fetched. Mummies do look scary, but if you come into contact with them for a long time, you will find that they are just that. Ordinary people are not afraid, so why are these three masters so scared?

Bailisong said:

"After seeing that person turned into a mummy, each of us was very cautious and didn't dare to express any dissatisfaction or complaints against the Baili family."

"We thought the matter was over, but a month later, many of us saw the mummy again."

When he said this, Bailisong's expression became nervous again:

"At first only one or two people had seen it, but later many people had seen it, and we were sure it was real."

"The mummy was incredibly fast, coming and going without a trace. Some of us tried to catch him, but failed. Later, someone dared to ask Baili Yiren, but Baili Yiren didn't respond. He just told him coldly to do his job."

"Later, the Baili family took on an important mission, also overseas. A total of fifteen people were sent, and the three of us were among them."

"That mission wasn't dangerous at first, but as the unexpected happened, the danger increased exponentially. There was even one time when we were all tricked and trapped in an underground explosives warehouse. Our lives were hanging by a thread. And at that moment, that mummy appeared again."

When he said this, Bailisong's expression was complicated and heavy:

"We never expected that it was the mummy who saved us, but he paid a heavy price and was blown to ashes."

"We later asked Baili Yiren to verify this matter. Baili Yiren finally admitted that the mummy was the one who escaped. In fact, he was not dead at that time, but just fell into a special state. When he appeared later, he was still alive, but his body and mind had been completely controlled by the Baili family. He came to rescue us this time because he received instructions from the Baili family."

After Bailisong said this, he actually felt a sense of relief.

He didn't know whether telling Principal Lin these words would improve his current situation, but it did make him feel good to say them.

He then explained:

"Mr. Lin, you didn't see what the mummy looked like. It was scarier than the scariest ghosts in horror movies. But no matter what, he saved our lives at the time, and we are still very grateful to him. So now we transfer money to his family every year to repay him for saving our lives."

"In fact, what scares us the most is not his state as a mummy, but the Baili family. Even if they have turned into mummies, they still want us to work for them. It is said that when a person dies, his debts are wiped out. I feel that the Baili family will not let us go until we die, and will definitely do their best to squeeze every last drop of value out of us."

After listening to Baili Song's story, Lin Xiao became more and more curious about the Baili family's means of controlling people. And judging from the relationship between the three families, not only the Baili family has this method, but the Chu family and the Xiao family also have it.

Principal Lin looked at Hu Mantian at this time and then asked:

"How many masters are there among the Baili family? You are the most powerful one among them."

Seeing that Bailisong had said so much, Hu Mantian no longer concealed anything and said:

"As far as I know, the Baili family has trained two batches of masters like us, each batch has sixteen people. I rank third among them in terms of strength."

"Aren't you the best?"

Principal Lin was a little surprised. It seemed that the Baili family had a very deep foundation. Apart from anything else, the number of masters alone meant a huge fortune.

Hu Mantian lowered his head and said:

"The three of us are considered the second batch of students. There were two very powerful people in the batch before us. I heard that they have been absorbed into the main family of the Baili Family. Now they don't accept many missions and just wait for the money to be divided."

When talking about those two people, Hu Mantian felt a little indignant.

Principal Lin asked:

"Oh? So you also have the opportunity to become a member of the Baili family's main family. Why don't you go and join them?"

Hu Mantian shook his head repeatedly:

"No, no, I'm still fine living alone. Although those two people have obtained identities, their freedom of movement is also greatly restricted. They have to report to the master wherever they go."

It seems that Hu Mantian doesn't care about his identity. What he cares about is how to get rid of the control of the Baili family and how to earn more rewards.

Principal Lin chuckled:

"You seem content with what you have. Don't you have any clue as to how they were controlled?"

Hu Mantian thought for a moment and said:

"I'm afraid only the people in their master's family know about this, and only a very few people understand the method involved. Baili Yiren should know the most about these things."
