Almost at the same time, He Yuanwai's family in Hejiabao.
The keen Pei Wende suddenly felt his heart tightening, and instinctively looked back in the direction of Tongqing Temple on the top of the mountain.
"Is it... going to rain?"
The dragon veins coming from under the earth were trembling slightly. Pei Wende knew that this was a sign before the heavy rain came, and it was also a warning from the forest to him.
But the problem is that Pei Wende didn't feel this way in the morning.
This sudden heavy rain made Pei Wende feel inexplicably uneasy in his heart.
"hiss!"
At this moment, the little green snake seemed to feel the coming rainstorm, and quietly emerged from Pei Wende's collar.
It was obviously just a vague neighing sound, but Pei Wende seemed to understand what the other party was saying, and the worry on his face instantly turned into helplessness.
"I really don't like Red Fox. You have asked me more than once along the way."
Just rolling his eyes, Pei Wende didn't know how many times he had to explain this problem.
"I just think this Hejiabao is a bit weird, so I asked her to go outside and find out the news first, and then meet us later."
"As for why she can understand my eyes?"
"This is called tacit understanding, do you understand?"
"Just like I can understand you!"
Speaking of this, Pei Wende suddenly paused, and then asked in a lowered voice.
"Speaking of this, I remember you can speak human language, right?"
"Why haven't you spoken since I came back from Jingfan Town?"
"Is it because you can only speak human words in the form of a big snake?"
This time it was the little green snake's turn to roll its eyes. It didn't want to answer any of Pei Wende's questions.
Just like Pei Wende's answer, he didn't believe a single punctuation mark.
After all, Pei Wende may not be self-aware, but Little Green Snake knows clearly in his heart that this guy seems to have an inexplicable attraction to all monsters.
To put it less gloriously, Little Green Snake himself is one of the captives of this "attraction", so he is naturally very wary of Pei Wende's natural "charm".
As for why we should be wary of Pei Wende’s attraction to other monsters, especially female monsters?
The little green snake attributed it to his own possessiveness. As the overlord of the forest and a powerful snake demon, how could the forbidden love he fancied tolerate the prying eyes of other monsters?
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………
"Sir, this is the master I invited from Tongqing Temple."
Just when the little green snake refused to answer Pei Wende's question, the housekeeper He who had gone to find Yuanwai finally came back.
Squeak...
Accompanied by a heart-wrenching sound of the door opening, a man wearing brocade clothes and a jade jade belt appeared outside the door under the guidance of servants.
Member He had obviously been waiting inside for a long time, otherwise he would not have reacted so quickly and even gone out to greet him personally.
"Master, you finally..."
However, the moment he saw Pei Wende, the joy in He Yuanwai's eyes turned into a look of astonishment before it faded.
Because in the center of this not-so-big hall, everyone in the hall can be seen at a glance.
Therefore, He Yuanwai was very sure that except for Pei Wende, there were no other outsiders present.
In other words, the shameless young boy in front of him, who carries a sword and a bow and looks like a hunter, is the "mage" in the housekeeper's words.
"Uh, may I ask, little mage?"
It was obvious that He Yuanwai had changed his attitude before and after, but Pei Wende did not show any obvious emotions about this.
After all, I look like a young man, and I really don't look like the kind of master who can exorcise evil spirits. What's more, I really don't know any rituals to exorcise evil spirits.
Well, if "killing ghosts" can be regarded as exorcism, then it can be the only "exorcism ritual" that Pei Wende is good at.
"You can call me Pei Wende, I am a disciple of Zen Master Lingyou."
He slightly bowed his hands and sighed secretly when he saw such a young visitor, but on the surface he no longer showed any contempt.
"It turns out that he is a disciple of Zen Master Lingyou. I have admired him for a long time!"
Nodding, Pei Wende had no intention of changing his mind because of He Yuanwai's words.
"There's no need to be polite first, just take me to see your son first!"
When he said this, Pei Wende turned his attention to the embarrassed Butler He beside him.
Even he could see that Member He was disapproving of him, and there was no reason why Butler He, one of the parties involved, couldn't see it.
Fortunately, I don’t know whether it’s because he has the mentality of treating a dead horse as a living horse, or because Butler He has enough prestige in this family...
He Yuanwai did not do much to stop Pei Wende's request to see his son, but it could still be vaguely seen from his expression that he did not trust Pei Wende.
"Master, please come here. Our young master is resting in the inner room."
Without any hesitation, he quickly stepped forward to lead the way. Butler He's performance was much more dedicated than that of Yuan Wai.
Seeing this, Pei Wende didn't bother to pay attention to Yuanwai's contempt, and immediately followed Butler He towards the inner room.
Pei Wende is not the kind of guy who shows off and cheats. He has no interest in pleasing his employer.
To put it mildly, as long as they really showed their ability to exorcise evil spirits, they would be the ones who showed the most enthusiasm.
[However, the relationship in this family seems to be a little more complicated than I imagined. 】
Pei Wende, who was closely following Butler He, rolled his eyes calmly and thought thoughtfully.
Although it is said to be a home for outsiders, this family actually does not have many servants.
Apart from Butler He, Pei Wende only saw one doorman opening the door along the way.
This is obviously unreasonable. At least Pei Wende has never seen such a "sparsely staffed" member's home. It seems that there is not even a single relative who wants to stay here.
In this age where clans are valued, even if a wealthy family does not hire one or two servants, they will definitely have relatives who come to help them.
Especially in a place like Hejiabao, even for the sake of his fellow clan members, He Yuanwai should at least find two clan members to help him.
[Could it be that He Yuanwai’s family has completely fallen out with He Jiabao because of being ‘possessed by evil spirits’? 】
[Thinking about it this way, the 'rejection' when I entered the village before makes sense. 】
Moreover, He Yuanwai's behavior is also a bit intriguing. He seems to value Steward He's opinion more than his own son's condition.
On the other hand, Butler He seemed to really regard the young master of the He family as his own son.
His concern for He Qinfeng can be seen in his actions and expressions.
