This was clearly telling Qing Lan that Black Tortoise was lying to him.
Qing Lan had a strange feeling in his heart, but it quickly disappeared. "What about you? How did you know that this was a resurrection spell?"
"Because Black Tortoise was lying to you." Jiujiu looked at Qing Lan with sympathy. "I used to think that I was very pitiful because I was all alone in this world without any relatives. Later, I finally found out that my grandfather was still alive, but who would have thought that he would lose control.
But now it seems that you are even more pitiful than me, because your friends in this world are lying to you.
You took out your heart to trust them, but they betrayed your trust and used it to lie to you. Qing Lan, you are really pitiful.
You are even more pitiful than me. "
Hearing Jiujiu say that Black Tortoise was lying to him, Qing Lan clenched his teeth and tasted blood in his mouth, but he still stubbornly asked, "How did you know that this was a resurrection spell?"
"I am from the Nan tribe, and the Nan tribe has a natural advantage when it comes to spells and arrays. As long as I want to, I can know everything." Jiujiu paused and continued, "Have you forgotten that my grandfather Xia He is the one who awakened the power of the Nan tribe's ancestor? Do you think that as his granddaughter, I would be that bad?"
Jiujiu knew that those things were very suspicious, but when Jiujiu brought Xia He into the picture, all of this became natural.
Xia He was so amazing, as his granddaughter, Jiujiu knew this, it was normal.
Qing Lan looked at Jiujiu with a different expression.
"Why are you telling me this? Aren't you afraid that I will tell this to others?"
"I thought that you don't trust them now."
Black Tortoise clearly knew what the spell was for, but he still lied to Qing Lan.
Moreover, if Black Tortoise could see what these incantations were for, it meant that from the beginning, they knew what the murderer wanted to do. Since they knew, they still called Qing Lan back. It could be seen that they had ulterior motives.
And their target was most likely Jiujiu.
Although Qing Lan didn't know how to lie, he wasn't stupid. He only needed to use his brain a little to figure out Vermillion Bird's purpose.
They wanted to keep a close eye on Jiujiu to prevent any accidents from happening before the ceremony.
"What do you want?"
"I want you to take me out. I want to see my grandfather."
"He's out of control, and he's been missing for a long time." Qing Lan looked at Jiujiu. "I know you want to see Xia He, but even we can't find him. What makes you think you can find him?"
"I can tell at a glance what kind of incantation it is, so I have a way to find my grandfather. What you need to do now is to bring me out. As for the rest, I have my own plans."
Jiujiu's tone was firm and unyielding.
Qing Lan was silent for a moment, then nodded in agreement to Jiujiu's request.
Early the next morning, Qing Lan left the villa with Jiujiu.
After Jiujiu had Qing Lan drop her off in the city center, she used Xia Dongqiu's hair for divination and quickly calculated Xia He's current location.
Although Vermillion Bird and the others said that Xia He had lost control and disappeared for a long time.
But in reality, Xia He had never left the capital. The place where he lived now was only a few kilometers away from where Qing Lan and the others lived.
Of course, the reason why Vermillion Bird and the others couldn't find Xia He was because there was a barrier around Xia He's residence.
Jiujiu and Qing Lan walked in front of the barrier. Jiujiu stretched out her hand, and the barrier rippled like waves. Then, Jiujiu disappeared in front of the barrier.
Qing Lan wanted to follow in, but he was blocked outside by the barrier.
Qing Lan could only stand outside with an ugly expression and wait for Jiujiu to come out.
Inside the barrier was a small courtyard, and there were even some cucumbers and tomatoes planted in the courtyard.
Jiujiu reached out and plucked a cucumber. After wiping it with her clothes, she put it into her mouth and munched on it. As she ate, she pushed open the closed door.
The door opened, and Jiujiu saw Xia He sitting in the room.
Logically speaking, Xia He should be almost seventy years old, but the Xia He sitting in front of her looked at most thirty years old.
Moreover, Xia He's eyes didn't have the dim eyesight of an elderly person. Instead, they were as clear as a teenager's.
Jiujiu stepped forward and sat opposite Xia He. She looked at Xia He and asked, "Are you my grandfather, Xia He?"
Xia He quietly looked at Jiujiu, who was sitting opposite him. His face was dazed for a moment. After a long time, he said, "I know who you are. You're a mission enforcer."
Jiujiu was startled when Xia He suddenly said the words "mission enforcer". "What did you say?"
Xia He said, "I know who you are, and I also know what you're here for. You're not my granddaughter, Xia Qiudong. You're someone else, right?"
Jiujiu didn't expect Xia He to directly reveal her identity, and even frankly say that she wasn't Xia Qiudong. "Since you're not going to beat around the bush, I won't beat around the bush either. Yes, I'm not your granddaughter, Xia Qiudong.
Then tell me now. You've killed so many people and painstakingly engraved resurrection spells on them. Who do you want to resurrect? Wife? Daughter-in-law? "
When Xia He heard Jiujiu say the words "resurrection spell", a trace of absent-mindedness flashed across his face. Then, he laughed.
Xia He laughed for a long time before retracting his smile. He looked at Jiujiu and said, "As expected of a mission enforcer. You can even recognize the resurrection spell. Impressive, impressive.
Then I won't hide it from you. I used the resurrection spell to resurrect my granddaughters, Xia Qiudong. "
"Xia Qiudong didn't die."
"But you took over her body."
Jiujiu smiled slightly. "So, you felt that her soul was being squeezed out of her body by me, and you wanted to resurrect her?"
Xia He nodded. "When I was helping Vermillion Bird and the others see the future, I also saw Qiudong's future. No matter which time it happened, she died. Moreover, her soul was scattered and she would never be reincarnated."
When he thought of this, Xia He's heart ached.
"You saw me?"
"Yes." Xia He nodded. "I've seen so many futures. Only once did Qiudong live, and that was when you came. However, I can't wait that long. Moreover, I'm worried that you won't be able to save Qiudong and will be killed by Vermillion Bird and the others. I have to make the first move. First, I have to save Qiudong, then send her away from here forever."
"Even so, if the demons attack, even if Xia Qiudong runs to the ends of the earth, she won't be able to escape."
"I know. That's why I'm preparing to send Qiudong to another world. In that world, she'll be able to live like an ordinary little girl."
She won't be used by others because of her identity as a member of the Nan Tribe. Or rather, she won't lose her life because she's a member of the Nan Tribe.
