Angelica returns

"Xi'er, you're back." A middle-aged woman with a bad complexion leaned on a rattan chair in her yard, and said to the young man who was walking in.

That was his son, named Chen Xi.Chen Xi put down the herbs in his hand, squatted in front of the woman, held her hand, and said softly, "Mother, there is wind outside."

Mother Chen patted the back of his hand and said with a smile, "It's okay, today is a good day."

"Then I'll boil the medicine first, and you rest." After Chen Xi finished speaking, he picked up the medicine bag and was about to go.At this time, Chen's mother stopped him: "Xi'er, you look bad, what happened?"

Chen Xi smiled, comforted her mother and said, "No, probably because I didn't sleep well last night." After speaking, she went to the kitchen.

Knowing a child is like a mother.When taking the medicine today, Chen Xi noticed something was wrong. He knew that the rumors were very tight recently, and someone would find him soon.

He has been in Laihu for nearly a month, and he is full of worries. Nothing good happened.

Chen Xi and Wujietang are a cooperative relationship with related interests.Before that, he actually knew nothing about Wujietang.

A year ago, after meeting a man named Li Qian in the Unbounded Hall through his father's connection, they had intersected intermittently.

Chen Xi was gifted and intelligent, with strange bones. Whatever Li Qian taught him, whether it was the Tranquility Curse or the Soul Draw technique, he digested it very quickly once he took over.

According to the plan, soon, the people under his command captured Azhang and Dr. Liu, and the refinement of the soul drawing technique could be officially started immediately.

But just when he thought everything was coming to an end, his father ordered him not to act rashly, and to postpone the big plan first.

Most likely, Chen Xi knew about his father's plan.Chen Xi knew that it was against morality to draw people's souls to make him immortal.

But Chen Xi still obeys his father's instructions, because only at this time can he feel that he is valued by his father, and only when he completes the tasks given by his father time after time can he feel that he is a human being value of children.

However, he didn't know his father, he didn't know his name, he didn't know where he lived, and he didn't even look at his appearance carefully.

All he knew was that it was his father, a man his mother loved deeply.Therefore, it is also by nature that he is willing to bear all this.

The soul drawing technique requires not only human souls but also ghosts, the more ghosts the better.For this reason, Chen Xi had to take his mother all over the mountains to collect ghosts.

There are not many available people left by his father, and he knows this is to keep the news from leaking.

In the extreme north of Laihu, except for the youngsters with weak crowns, he also collects some ghosts as a routine.

Originally, it would be enough to cast some spells and wait for them to fall into the trap, but this time he followed his word and released the false news that "Wujietang is recruiting soldiers and horses". Chen Xi didn't know why his father suddenly wanted to turn Wujietang into the light this time.

Li Qian came and went without a trace, and usually only appeared when necessary. Chen Xi thought that he had a happy cooperation with Li Qian this year, and there was nothing wrong with borrowing the name of Wujietang once.

Unexpectedly, just as Chen Xi finished casting the curse on A Zhang and Liu Xiao, and the group was walking on the road, people from Li Qian met them on a narrow road, and the visitor was full of anger. .Fortunately, the lord Li Qian did not come, and Chen Xi narrowly won.

As for Liu Xiao and Azhang, Chen Xi expressed his sympathy. Since his father said that the plan should be suspended, the fate of these two people should be left to God to decide. Whether they live or die depends entirely on luck.And so, the big ghost and the little ghost picked up Zhang and Liu Xiao who were unconscious.

The flames came out, and the medicine stove was rumbling, but Chen Xi was in a daze.In addition to worry, he has more doubts in his heart. He doesn't know why, his father wanted to expose Wujietang at the risk of turning against Li Qian, but his father's planning was extremely precise, and he even pinpointed the right time for him to connect the thin cone Xu Zongyin's money bag is fixed at Xu's house.

Chen Xi couldn't figure it out, so he had to convince himself that his father naturally had his father's considerations, and what he dared to do must be what he could do.

"Xi'er!" Hearing her mother's shout, Chen Xi quickly picked up the medicine stove and walked out.

"Mother, are you used to Laihu?" Chen Xi asked while pouring out the medicinal soup.

Mother Chen has kind eyebrows and kind eyes, and she should have been gentle and pleasant when she was young. "Get used to it. As long as our mother and son are together, we can get used to it everywhere."

Chen Xi tested the temperature and confirmed that the medicinal soup was not so hot before giving it to his mother, "Mother, you have suffered this year, and you should not have to run around like this soon. I will buy a peaceful yard by then. , you can enjoy yourself there.”

"Xi'er, mother doesn't want to enjoy happiness, as long as you are safe." After finishing speaking, Mother Chen lowered her head and drank the medicine.She is not in good health, coupled with the fact that she has been running around for a year and has a lot of qi deficiency, she is almost entirely supported by decoction.

After finishing the medicine, Chen Xi watched her mother fall asleep before going out again with peace of mind.

On this day, Li Qian will come to him.

On the other side, Wang Zhi came to visit Zhou Tingyu again with a list.This time, he finally didn't have a mournful face, and he was in high spirits on happy occasions. This sentence couldn't be more suitable for him.

"Young Master Zhou!" Wang Zhi shouted loudly, seeing two people as soon as he entered the door, he said again: "Young Master Zhou and Young Master He are really inseparable, they are always in pairs wherever they are!"

"What? Can't you?" General Zhou Tingyu said.

Wang Zhi laughed immediately after hearing this: "Okay! Then how dare you not do it. The two young masters are the benefactors of the official, and the harmony and joy between you is also the blessing of the official..."

Zhou Tingyu couldn't stand his compliment, raised his hand and shouted to stop: "Speak to the business."

Wang Zhi quickly presented the list and said, "It's business and business. The investigation you ordered has come to fruition. It's just that these households have long-term purchases of Codonopsis ginseng."

Zhou Tingyu: "Have you asked?"

"I've asked, most of them are locals from Laihu, only this household," Wang Zhi pointed to a name, "moved here a month ago."

The word "Chen Xi" stands out where it points.

Zhou Tingyu: "Have you been to Chen Xi's house?"

Wang Zhi shook his head: "I didn't dare to act rashly, I was afraid of scaring the snake."

At this time, He He, who had remained silent all this time, called out: "Go to Chen Xi's house and set off immediately."

This duty can be described as a big fanfare, and the news that "the case is about to be closed" that was spread before has been confirmed.

Countless pairs of eyes in the city were staring at the procession of the county government, and there were always a few strange eyes that were anxious.

The team is used to show off to others, so there is no need to call Zhou Tingyu to make an appearance. They took a detour and played the vanguard long before Wang Zhi.

"It really smells like traditional Chinese medicine." Zhou Tingyu commented standing at the door of Chen Xi's house.

He Yixuan knocked on the door knocker, and soon after, Mother Chen opened the door.

"Xi'er, did you forget your key?" Just as she finished speaking, she was shocked when she realized that the person who came was not her son. "Who are you?"

"Auntie, are you alone at home?" Zhou Tingyu couldn't help asking softly seeing Chen's mother's kind appearance.

Mother Chen: "My son has gone out. Do you know him?"

Zhou Tingyu lied casually: "Chen Xi! I recognize him." After speaking, he walked into the yard unceremoniously.

Chen's mother didn't stop her, she just heard him ask again: "Auntie, are you in poor health?"

Seeing that everyone had come in, she closed the door and said, "It's an old problem, it's fine."

Zhou Tingyu looked around, trying to find some clues, but there were medicinal residues and medicinal fragrances in this yard, and there was nothing special about it.He rolled his eyes at He Hui, who was still examining carefully.

"Do you know when Chen Xi will come back?" Zhou Tingyu asked again, wanting to start with Chen's mother.

Mother Chen suddenly coughed a few times, expressing that she didn't know.Seeing her coughing, Zhou Tingyu thought of his mother for a moment, couldn't bear it, and hurried forward to let her go.

Just before he touched Chen's mother's back, Zhou Tingyu suddenly felt something hit the back of his hand, and a burst of numbness came to his heart.Unable to slow down to see what happened, He Yihuan suddenly stood in front of him.

It's Chen Xi...

I saw Chen Xi coming in angrily, raising his fists viciously and running towards He Jihua, He Huan showed Shen Mo, and blocked with a fan leaf, leading Chen Xi to a place where Zhou Tingyu would not be hurt.

I don't know whether it was deliberately avoiding it or feeling that they were making a big fuss, they didn't use their spiritual power, they only fought with fists and kicks. Although Chen Xi was not weak, why did he deliberately let him go.

After fighting for three rounds, seeing that the opponent was still refusing to let go, He Huancai attacked head-on, and landed his right palm on his left shoulder impartially.Chen Xi was defeated.

"What did you do to my mother?!" Chen Xi yelled, clutching his left shoulder, spitting blood.

Seeing that her son was injured, Chen's mother ran to her son in a panic, and asked distressedly, "Xi'er, are you alright?"

Chen Xi shook her head to reassure her mother.

Chen's mother said tearfully again: "Don't worry, they didn't do anything to me. But you fought with others as soon as you entered the door. It's not because of my mother that I suffered heartache."

Zhou Tingyu knew that He Yihuan fought to protect himself.On weekdays, he would not bother arguing with others, let alone fighting?

"Chen Xi, let's come out and talk. Let your mother have a good rest." Zhou Tingyu said.

Zhou Tingyu has practiced interrogation skills in the past few days.

He knew the way with ease: "Do you know Liu Xiao and Zhang?"

Unexpectedly, instead of answering, Chen Xi asked instead: "Who are you?"

Why did he look at him and said, "It has nothing to do with you."

Chen Xi snorted coldly, not losing his integrity, "Your Excellency is extraordinary, you must not be an ordinary person."

Why do you call: "Misfortune comes from the mouth, understandable?"

Chen Xi lowered his head and said with a smile that was not a smile: "I don't know. Why, if I don't know, you want to arrest me and go to the government?"

It's really a tough nut to crack.Zhou Tingyu thought to himself. "Don't know but you know these two people, don't you?"

Chen Xi retorted: "If you don't know it, you don't know it. What do you mean you don't know it but know it?"

Zhou Tingyu said: "I only talked to you carefully for your mother's sake. Don't be ignorant. Tell the truth, it's convenient for everyone."

Chen Xi spat: "My mother? Heh, I didn't settle my mother's account with you, yet you still said, for my mother's sake?"

Why Calling Wenyan glared at Chen Xi angrily, "If you don't say it, I will naturally have a way for you to say it."

Chen Xi laughed again, and said, "Is it a curse or a Gu? I knew you were not an ordinary person!"

He Huan couldn't bear it anymore, he rubbed Shen Mo and was ready to teach this ignorant kid in front of him a lesson.

Unexpectedly, a black shadow flew past him while he was unaware, brushed past Chen Xi, and looked again, Chen Xi disappeared together with the black shadow, leaving only dust and rustling branches and leaves in front of him.

Everything is so fast that nothing can stop it!

Zhou Tingyu immediately asked him, "Who?"

He Hui shook his head.If it's demons from all directions and evil spirits from four extremes, there's no reason why he couldn't perceive it beforehand, and if it's someone who has gained the Tao, he shouldn't act so dishonorably.

Who is it? !Dare to rob people from under his nose!Can you still do it so quietly?

"Go, go back first." He Zhi called out.

Zhou Tingyu: "Just go back? Don't look for it anymore?"

Why did he call: "The person who robbed Chen Xi came prepared, how could it be so easy for us to find him?"

Zhou Tingyu looked into the courtyard, but there was no one there.

For some reason, he asked, "Where's Chen Xi's mother? What should I do?"

Why did he know that he was missing his mother.

So he said: "Lick the calf with deep affection. No matter how bad Chen Xi is, he would never do anything to his mother."

Zhou Tingyu laughed self-deprecatingly, death cannot be brought back to life, after so many years, he is still so reluctant to let go.
