The happy coffin is opened, all ghosts disperse, the princess comes from hell
Chapter 39 Xiao Chenyan, you are fooling me!
Returning Xie Ling's soul to her body was just a piece of cake for Qing Wu.
She was not prepared to make any noise at all. She breathed into her hand, pressed the soul-hiding talisman with her thumb, and rushed to Xie Ling's forehead to give it a hard slap.
There was a snap, and there was a red palm mark on Xie Ling's forehead.
"Let's live together!" Qing Wu waved her hand.
There was silence in the room, and Mrs. Dingguo was stunned, "Is this, is this good?"
It wasn't that she wanted to question Qing Wu, but... wasn't it too casual?
When the white eyebrow invited the fox demon to her son, she was still making gestures with the paper talisman and peach wood sword for a long time.
A soft 'um' drew everyone's attention.
I saw that Xie Ling's originally dull eyes had regained their vitality. Although they were still a little dull, the way they looked at people was clear and clear.
As if he had just woken up, his eyes wandered around the people in the room, and finally settled on Mrs. Dingguo, and softly called out:
"mother……"
Mrs. Dingguo's nose felt astringent and she rushed forward: "Ling'er, it's really my Ling'er...is it you?"
Xie Ling nodded confusedly and called the others: "Dad, brother..."
The corners of Xie Yun's eyes were also red, and he took deep breaths several times: "Just wake up, it'll be fine."
Xie Ling looked at Qing Wu and Xiao Chenyan blankly, opened her mouth and said, "I remember you..."
He tilted his head again, looking around as if he was looking for something.
Upon seeing this, Duke Dingguo's wife hurriedly asked: "Ling'er, what are you looking for?"
Xie Ling gestured, "Brother...brother Yulang..."
The others looked at each other.
Qing Wu smiled and said, "He has returned to his mother. Do you still remember him?"
Xie Ling nodded and looked directly at Qingnu: "Sister killed the monster and saved me."
"And brother..." He looked at Xiao Chenyan and spoke slowly but clearly: "Thank you."
Duke Dingguo's wife cried with joy, "Ling'er can say so many words, our Ling'er is very lucky."
Xie Ling's brain was burned out before. Her intelligence was about the same as that of a child, and it was difficult to speak. It took her a long time to say a word.
The Xie family was overjoyed to be able to speak a complete sentence like this.
Qing Wu asked about something else: "Xie Ling, do you remember why your soul left your body?"
Xie Ling blinked blankly, and after a while he said: "I saw gold, a lot of gold. One-footed monkeys carried boxes of gold into the Taoist temple. They... they found me... and kept on Chase me..."
Mrs. Dingguo's face turned pale when she heard this.
Xiao Chenyan looked thoughtfully at Qing Wu: "The monkey he mentioned refers to the mandrill?"
"It should be." Qingwu nodded and asked, "What Taoist temple is he talking about? Where have you been before?"
Mrs. Dingguo said in a trembling voice: "Izumo Temple, I took Ling'er to stay at Izumo Temple for a while, and something happened to him on the way back."
Qing Wu and Xiao Chenyan looked at each other.
Aren't the clues connected again?
'Windfall' is here too!
"It seems that Xie Ling broke something and was targeted."
Mrs. Dingguo was sweating coldly. She never thought that she had harmed the child, and she was frightened and angry.
"Why doesn't that ghost come at me and attack my child! What does Ling'er know!"
"I can only say that Madam Ding Guo, you are lucky." Qing Wu laughed faintly: "The mandrills will definitely retaliate, and they will not be left alive unless someone lures them away before they attack."
Qing Wu looked at Xie Ling's dull but extremely clean eyes and said with emotion: "Madam has a good son."
When it comes to this, how can everyone not understand the truth.
Xie Ling's soul was separated from his body in order to lure away the mandrill and allow his mother who was with him to return home safely.
During the whole process, Mrs. Dingguo knew nothing about it.
Some of Qingwu's lumps were also dissolved. No wonder Xie Ling's soul was out of the body for so long before it was caught by that pretentious blowfly. It turned out that it had been hiding here and there.
Now that the truth was revealed, Mrs. Dingguo was frightened for a while, and she also hated the Izumo Temple in her heart.
"The Izumo Temple is full of incense, but it hides filth and evil. It actually raises some kind of mandrill to harm my son's life!"
"Xie Ling was not the only one who was killed." Qing Wu said in a faint tone.
Only then did Xiao Chenyan speak: "I came here today. In addition to returning Xie Ling's soul, I also have to discuss this matter."
Xie Yun looked solemn: "Let's go to the study."
Arrived at the study room.
Because it was about human life, Xie Shu naturally came. He is now the Shaoqing of Dali Temple and is in charge of various major criminal and prison cases.
If multiple lives were involved, such a major case would definitely be reported to him.
Xiao Chenyan first gave them a roster, which was exactly the one Mu Ying presented last night.
In addition, there are also accounts of Yun Houxing's corruption.
After reading it, the father and son looked solemn, and their eyes inevitably turned to Qingnu.
Xie Shu had a keen mind, and he could see the mystery just by relying on the roster and account books, and he hit the nail on the head:
"Are these two families conspiring to kidnap and traffic children?"
"It's not selling, it's killing." Xiao Chenyan said in a cold tone, talking about the child's bones found on Henglu Mountain (Shiying Mountain).
"My men have counted them, and there are more than a hundred child victims."
"This is simply unreasonable!" Xie Yun was furious: "Then Yun Houxing and Wang Sheng are so careless about human life, what on earth do they want to do!"
Xie Shu was even calmer. He pondered: "Do you have any clues about the whereabouts of the stolen money that Yun Houxing was greedy for?"
As soon as these words came out, Qing Wu glanced at him and then at Xiao Chenyan.
Xiao Chenyan's expression did not change: "Some of them have been found, but most of them are missing." He paused, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes: "But now, we should know where they are going."
"Are you talking about the gold that Lingdi saw at Izumo Watch?"
Xie Shu's eyebrows were stained with frost: "The Queen of the Clouds made money and sent them to Izumo Temple. They abducted children, killed them and raised the spirits, and it was Izumo Temple that drove the spirits."
"What exactly is this Izumo-Kan trying to do!"
"Isn't it obvious at a glance." Qing Wu put down the cake and said lazily: "Abducting children to raise monsters is nothing more than engaging in some crooked ways. As for money... you don't think that only living people are greedy for money, right?"
The three of them looked at her.
Qing Wu smiled and narrowed her eyes with a joking expression: "As the old saying goes, money can make the world go round."
"It doesn't matter whether it's the underworld or the human world, this money is a good thing."
The amount of information contained in Qingnu's words was so large that both the Xie family and his son frowned.
They can take care of the affairs of living people, but they are beyond their reach when it comes to matters involving ghosts and Xuan Yin.
Qingwu patted the crumbs on her hands and said, "You take care of the matters in the underworld, and I will take care of the matters in the underworld."
"But you can't do it for nothing, you have to be paid."
After saying that, she didn't care about the expressions of the three of them, stood up and said: "When will lunch be served? Does uncle take care of the food?"
Xie Yun's expression cracked for a moment, but he soon returned to his natural state. It was just a lunch, so there was no reason to ignore it, not to mention that Qing Wu also saved Xie Ling's life.
"There's no need to eat." Xiao Chenyan stood up and said, "If we stay any longer, we might arouse suspicion."
After all, it is clear that Duke Dingguo's Palace and Prince Yan's Palace have already separated.
Qing Wu looked disappointed. She really disliked the skills of the cook in the palace. She remembered that the skills of the cook in Xie Shu's family were very good, especially the pastries and snacks he made, which were no worse than those in the imperial kitchen.
Since she couldn't stay for food, Qingwu had no intention of staying for a long time. Instead, she had Baimei and the little fox taken away together.
But before leaving, a waiter came quickly carrying a box of snacks.
Although the snacks were given to Xiao Chenyan, Xiao Chenyan was not greedy now. He opened the lid of the food box and saw that the snacks inside were the ones Qingwu had eaten in the study before.
There is also a note in the box. The words on it are written in a gentle manner: This is a small gift, I hope you will keep it.
In the carriage, Qingwu took the note away from the man's fingers, looked at it carefully, and praised: "The handwriting is just like the person. Xie's handwriting is indeed as beautiful as his own."
After saying that, he added: "You are so attentive and considerate."
She folded the note and put it into her purse, feeling the gaze of the man beside her burning.
Qing Wu looked at her confusedly: "Why are you looking at me like this?"
Xiao Chenyan's face was expressionless, and his auspicious phoenix eyes were unpredictable, "You treat Xie Shu quite differently."
"Who makes Mr. Xie look so lovable?" Qing Wu said and clicked her tongue, "Unlike some people who keep a straight face all day long, as if I owe him hundreds of thousands of taels."
Inside the car, it was dead silent for a moment.
"Speaking of which, do you still have something you haven't given me?" Qing Wu stretched out her hand: "Where is the agreement?"
Xiao Chenyan looked at her two faces when facing him and Xie Shu, and looked away indifferently, "I didn't write it."
Qing Wu's beautiful eyes widened, Xiao Yantai, are you still fooling around?
