Xiao Chenyan: "..."
He thought of the cold aroma like fresh snow that hit his mouth and nose in his hazy state last night. The aroma seemed to be stirring again at this moment, making his body feel strangely hot for no reason.
It was like a ball of fire rushed into my mind.
boom--
Qing Wu watched the man slam the door and leave with a sullen face. She rolled her eyes, cursed "little boy" and continued to sleep with her head covered.
Outside the door, the guards kept vigilantly all night.
When Bai Sui saw someone coming out, he was half relieved and choked in his throat. The others also looked like they had seen a ghost, and they all stared at Xiao Chenyan's face and neck.
Xiao Chenyan realized something, his face darkened, and he tightened his cloak: "Go to the study first."
Just halfway, soldiers came to report that Yun Houxing came to the door.
Xiao Chenyan's eyes were sarcastic. It seemed that the other party had been waiting all night, but he couldn't calm down when he didn't hear the news of his death.
"That succubus named Wushuang said, what did you find in the trial?"
"The man is still unconscious. He refuses to wake up even after being sentenced. It doesn't look like he is pretending." Situ Jing said.
Xiao Chenyan paused slightly at his feet.
Situ Jing shrugged, "I've tried everything I can." He pursed his lips in a meaningful way: "Maybe it's the new one who entered the house who doesn't want this banshee to wake up."
A faint light flashed across Xiao Chenyan's eyes.
"Take Yun Houxing directly to Zhaixingyuan. In addition, carry Yun Yujiao and the coffin there so that the father, Yun Houxing, can properly recognize his daughter."
A father can always tell whether his daughter is real or fake, human or ghost.
He also wanted to see how his daughter, Yun Qingwu, would react when she saw Yun Houxing, a 'good father'.
…
In Star Picking Courtyard, when Yun Houxing saw the miserable death of Yun Yujiao in the coffin, his kneecaps suddenly softened.
He looked at the man sitting in the corridor, hugging his fur and drinking medicine, with tears in his eyes, and said first, "Your Majesty! My good daughter married into the prince's palace, why did she die?!"
Xiao Chenyan put down the medicine bowl. His handsome face was full of illness, and the sharpness of his body seemed to have been smoothed away. But when he opened his mouth, he still gave people a heavy sense of oppression:
"Shang Shu Yun is forgetful. The coffin brought from your house is a dead person. Now I ask you why the person died?"
Yun Houxing pretended to be coy: "Yesterday I got married in the Shangshu Mansion. It's true that my eldest daughter died of joy before getting married, but my second daughter Yujiao was a very good person when she got married!"
"Really?" Xiao Chenyan raised his eyebrows pretending to be surprised.
Baisui groaned: "Secretary Yun Shang is wrong, obviously it is the eldest young lady who is married alive, and the second young lady who is dead."
Yun Houxing was stunned. The young Taoist priest who had come with him this time and had been closing his eyes to rest beside him suddenly opened his eyes.
This Taoist priest's name is Wuji. He is the senior brother of the female Taoist priest who followed Yun Yujiao last night. He is also the culprit who refined the living evil spirit.
Last night, he felt that the living evil spirit had been successfully aroused. It was supposed that Prince Yan's palace was doomed, but something went wrong, and there was no news about his junior sister.
That's why he came here with Yun Houxing this morning.
Yun Houxing immediately said: "Impossible! The one who was married in the coffin is obviously my eldest daughter Yun Qingwu!"
Benedict.
Xiao Chenyan rapped his knuckles on the table, "This is strange. Could it be that the person who married this king last night was a dead person?"
Yun Houxing was also confused at this moment and glanced at Wuji subconsciously.
What happened last night?
"Come here, please bring the princess out and meet her father."
inside the house.
Qing Wu had been woken up a long time ago. She was just tidying up and grooming slowly, not in a hurry to show up.
"You are so dirty-minded."
As expected of you, Xiao Chenyan, you will find trouble for me.
However, it would be better for Yun Houxing, an idiot, to deliver it to her door himself, saving her from having to make a trip.
Qing Wu pushed the door open and met Yun Houxing's shocked gaze. She smiled brightly: "Hey, father is here~"
Yun Houxing's expression changed drastically, he subconsciously took three steps back, and almost blurted out: How could you still be alive!
Wuji shouted sharply: "What kind of ghost dares to cause trouble in the palace!"
Baisui pretended to be shocked: "What ghost? Isn't this your eldest daughter, Yun Shangshu, the concubine in our house?"
"No! She is definitely not my eldest daughter!" Yun Houxing was frightened: "She is a ghost! She is definitely not a human! My eldest daughter Yun Qingwu died yesterday!"
"I know, this evil spirit must have killed my Yujiao, right?"
The Taoist priest's eyes were full of resentment, and he stared at Qingwu: "As soon as I entered the palace, I felt ghostly energy filling the air. I guess there is an evil ghost harming people, and now I have found the source."
Yun Yujiao died, and Wuji estimated that his junior sister also died.
"Who is this?" Xiao Chenyan looked at Wuji.
"Pindao's Dharma name: Wuji."
Xiao Chenyan narrowed his eyes slightly, and Situ Jing understood. Not long after, an unconscious woman dressed as a maid was carried in.
It was Wuji's junior sister, the succubus named Wushuang.
Wuji's expression changed, and he immediately stepped forward and asked sternly: "How could my junior sister become like this?"
"Junior sister?" Xiao Chenyan seemed confused: "Isn't this girl the dowry of Second Miss Yun?"
He spoke in a nonchalant tone: "This king also said that this woman was loyal and loyal. She did not want to leave her old master. She wanted to go down and be the companion of Miss Yun Er. She fainted when she touched the coffin and couldn't wake her up."
Wushuang had been groomed before he was carried up. Only the trauma on his forehead was there. It looked like what Xiao Chenyan said.
Wuji knew it was impossible.
He immediately checked the situation of his junior sister, and after checking, he found that all three souls and seven souls were sieved by the ghost energy. On the surface, she looked still alive, but in fact she was a living dead.
Wuji was shocked and angry.
The next moment, the man's voice sounded with mixed emotions and anger, and the murderous intention hidden in his words made people feel like falling into an ice cellar.
"Since this girl is your junior sister, she is not an ordinary maidservant."
"I am curious now. A female Taoist priest came into the study room as a dowry. What is her intention?"
戗——
The surrounding black-armored guards all showed their blades.
Yun Houxing and Wuji both felt a chill in their hearts and looked at Xiao Chenyan in fear.
But I saw the man sitting calmly on the Taishi's chair. Even though his illness was still there, he was twisting the beads in his hands. The evil look hidden in his bones could no longer be concealed.
"Master Yun, have you figured out how to explain it?"
Yun Houxing was sweating profusely. He exchanged a look with Wuji and pointed at Qingwu: "It's all her! She's the one harming people!"
Wuji quickly said: "My junior sister married into the prince's palace, and she is definitely not a harmless person. It is really because the day yesterday was too special. She was worried that evil spirits would ruin the wedding, so she married in."
Wuji spoke righteously, with a look of grief on his face: "I never thought that my junior sister would be killed!" He looked at Qingwu with a bitter look and said sternly:
"Your Majesty, you don't know. Evil ghosts like these that can resurrect corpses are the best at bewitching people's minds and using evil spells such as covering their eyes to interfere with people's sanity."
"Her murder of Miss Yujiao is just the beginning. From now on, she will have to eat people's hearts and minds every day in order to stay in the world."
"If this ghost is not eliminated, there will be endless troubles!"
What Taoist Wuji said was conclusive, and Yun Houxing nodded repeatedly: "Yes! This evil ghost killed my daughter, we cannot let her stay in the world and continue to do evil!"
The two of them were in the same boat, and now that they were determined that 'Yun Qingwu' would fake his corpse to take revenge, they would definitely be the ones this evil ghost wanted to kill the most.
Who makes them the culprits of living evil spirits?
If they don't get rid of her as soon as possible, they will definitely die before Prince Yan and others!
"Where did you come from, a Taoist priest with a bull nose and white teeth? You call me a ghost? Am I a ghost?" Qing Wu sneered.
Taoist Wuji swept away the dust and said: "If you still want to make excuses, I will let you show your true colors now!"
He took out five yellow talismans. The yellow talismans ignited without fire and shot directly at Qingwu.
A strong wind suddenly struck, and the five yellow talismans were blown towards Wuji. One of them stuck to his sleeve, and flames suddenly burst out.
Wuji screamed and quickly took off his outer robe, with a fierce look in his eyes: "What an evil ghost! His moral conduct is not shallow!"
"What a dog Taoist priest, he is very courageous." Qingwu sneered, looking at Xiao Chenyan with provocative eyes: "I mean, my lord, are you just going to watch others come to your door to slander your princess? Or are you not a man?"
With a cold snort of unknown joy and anger, Xiao Chenyan twisted the Buddha beads in his hand and stood up.
He was extremely tall, nearly 1.9 meters tall, and his eyes were as cold as an eagle staring at a wolf. After his expression cooled down, the oppressive feeling made people stop breathing and dare not look at him.
Behind Yun Houxing and Wuji are both Yiliang.
The two of them were only focused on dealing with Qing Wu, but they forgot that this man was more dangerous than a ghost.
Xiao Chenyan twisted the Buddhist beads in his hand and said in a deep voice:
"What the princess said makes sense."
"Since Shangshu Yun and Taoist Wuji are sure that the princess is a ghost, they will provide evidence. If not..."
戗——
The black-armored guards who had sheathed their swords not long ago all pulled out their swords again, pointing the blades at Yun Houxing and Wuji.
Xiao Chenyan: "Then we can all become ghosts."
Qing Wu raised her eyebrows.
Yun Houxing and Wuji choked for breath, and the latter gritted his teeth: "I have my own way to prove that evil spirits are afraid of fire. As long as they set up a pyre and light a fire, the possessed evil ghost will naturally be forced to reveal itself. !”
"Idiot, living people are not afraid of fire?" Qing Wu sneered: "It was a person who was thrown on the pyre and burned by fire, not a ghost, he could be burned to death."
"Why don't you suggest just cutting off my head to see if I can still breathe?"
Qing Wu rolled her eyes: "It's such a stupid thing."
Wuji's face turned blue and white.
The people in the palace who were watching the excitement and did not think it was a big deal almost laughed out loud. Unexpectedly, Qingwu changed the topic: "However, it is not impossible for me to be willing to undergo this test of fire."
Wuji's heart skipped a beat.
Qing Wu stared at him with a strange smile:
"How boring it is to be the only one on the burning rack. According to you, ghosts are afraid of fire. Anyway, you are a human and you are not afraid of fire, so let's go together~"
"If you are afraid, it means you are not human."
"If you're not a human being, then you should be chopped to death with a knife!"
Wuji's face changed drastically, and in panic, he heard Xiao Chenyan's order:
"Come here, set up firewood and light a fire!"
