"What happened to my house?"
From outside came Chen Tang's enraged voice, "What happened to my home? Forsaken by the heavens? My mountain! My phoenix tree! My fish!"
Without thinking, Chen Shi stuffed the piece of paper and Liu Eunuch's notes into his bosom and slipped out.
Black Pot kept his head down and hurriedly followed him.
"My study!"
Came Chen Tang's trembling voice, "The unique ancient books I've painstakingly collected for over a decade! I was only out for half a day..."
Chen Shi quickened his pace to rush outside, followed by Chen Tang's furious voice: "Rebellious child, face your death! Don't think you can escape——"
In utter panic, Chen Shi dashed outward, shouting: "Black Pot, save me!"
Black Pot sighed, and a gust of ghostly wind howled, sweeping both man and dog into the underworld.
