Miss Jiang was a concubine's daughter, so she had to keep a low profile when she bought a fox to vent her anger. She didn't dare to let the mistress know. Therefore, when she and her maid both fainted, no one in the mansion knew about the fox, let alone Master Zhuang Yulang.
After the doctor came, he only diagnosed that the master and servant were overly frightened, but everything else was normal.
It was too strange that they were overly frightened. Why would they be overly frightened in their own courtyard? Could it be that … someone had come in?
The news that a flower thief had sneaked into Miss Jiang's courtyard with ill intentions quickly spread among the servants of the Jiang Mansion and became an unspeakable secret. When the servants met each other, their eyes seemed to contain something mysterious, as if there were turbulent waves hidden under the calm water.
The magistrate's wife was furious and ordered the whole mansion to be under martial law and investigate carefully. She couldn't ignore the master and servant who didn't wake up. She invited the three best doctors in the city to take a look, but they were all overly frightened and nothing else.
However, the two didn't wake up no matter what, and they were helpless.
The gatekeeper saw that Miss Jiang's maidservant frequently went out, and when she finally returned, she mysteriously took something with her. The magistrate's wife was even angrier. She knew that this concubine's daughter was troublesome and brought trouble upon herself.
Now that rumors were everywhere in the mansion, if they couldn't control it and spread, wouldn't her own daughter be implicated?!
The magistrate's wife wanted to kill them directly, but the servants in the mansion were paying attention to this matter, so she couldn't do it casually. She was even more afraid that there really was a flower thief who couldn't be found and would harm her daughter in the end.
After being in a dilemma, she decided to wake them up as soon as possible. The doctor was useless, so the old lady of the Jiang Family spoke.
"It doesn't look like an ordinary illness. Go and ask a Taoist priest to come back. Remember, do it secretly and don't let anyone know. "
If the magistrate's family asked a Taoist priest, it would cause all kinds of speculation. The magistrate's wife also knew the severity of the matter, so she asked the housekeeper to ask a Taoist priest secretly.
The Taoist priest who stayed in the city wasn't particularly powerful. When he arrived at the Jiang Mansion and saw the situation, he said a lot of things that others couldn't understand. Then, he set the table and began to dance mysteriously.
Bai Yi passed by while shopping and heard the Taoist priest's voice. She curiously ran into the Jiang Mansion and hid in the dark to watch the show.
She was a little surprised that the master and servant hadn't woken up yet. This was also the first time she had used a spell on an ordinary person. Perhaps she had not grasped the strength of the spell properly and had used too much force.
She originally wanted to wake the master and servant up, but on second thought, wouldn't it be that stinky Daoist's credit if they woke up now? Zhengming had demons and ghosts, so it was normal for him to be cured by a doctor.
Therefore, she deliberately waved her hand to make trouble so that the Daoist priest could not light the talisman. It was very embarrassing.
Bai Yi covered her mouth and laughed quietly. The prefectural magistrate's wife frowned and left in a huff. Soon after, the housekeeper politely and distantly invited the Daoist priest out.
The prefectural magistrate's wife flew into a rage and scolded the housekeeper. She ordered him to invite a truly capable Taoist priest. Before that, he would ask the doctor to come and take a look.
Bai Yi had been paying attention to the movements of the Jiang family. Seeing that the doctor had come, she also ran over and woke up the master and servant.
The doctor was performing acupuncture on the two of them. When he saw that they had woken up, he heaved a sigh of relief and smiled. "You're fine now that you're awake. You must have been scared out of your wits. That's why you slept for so long. It's normal, it's normal."
The prefectural magistrate's wife sent the doctor away and immediately questioned Miss Jiang, "What exactly happened that day? Why are you unconscious in the courtyard with your clothes disheveled? Did you see anyone? What did you ask your maidservant to bring back? "
Miss Jiang was frightened by her serious attitude. She tried hard to recall, but couldn't remember anything. Suddenly, she became even more scared.
"Mother, I, I don't remember. That day … that day, I was just embroidering and reading as usual. I didn't do anything inappropriate. My clothes were disheveled? How is that possible? It's impossible! "
"Impossible? Hmph! Not only were your clothes disheveled, but your skin was also seen by seven or eight servants! "
"What?!" Miss Jiang's eyes instantly widened. She shrank to the corner in horror and kept shaking her head. "I don't believe it! I don't believe it! How is that possible? I didn't do anything! "
The prefectural magistrate's wife didn't get anything out of her, and her anger rose. However, Miss Jiang didn't seem to be lying at all. It seemed that she really didn't remember. She had no choice but to ask someone to take the maidservant away and interrogate her severely.
However, the maidservant was the same as Miss Jiang. She didn't remember anything at all. No matter how she interrogated her, she couldn't get anything out of her.
In the end, Bai Yi didn't understand human beings. She thought that if she didn't remember, everything would be fine. She didn't know that this "not remembering" was the biggest abnormality. The master and servant of the Jiang family looked like that in the courtyard. Even if they had a nightmare, it would be no different from being possessed, right?
The old lady of the Jiang family believed in these things the most. She insisted that they were stained with something dirty and asked the housekeeper to invite a Taoist priest with real ability.
The housekeeper hurried to find someone. He secretly inquired about a Taoist priest with real ability and went to invite them.
Zhuang Liushi received the banknotes and lived a happy life. She didn't do anything at home and just waited for Bai Yi to serve her. She was very comfortable and didn't pay attention to the Jiang family's affairs at all. Naturally, she didn't know that something had happened to Miss Jiang. She was leisurely and carefree. She urged Zhuang Yulang to study all day long.
Zhuang Yulang was almost out of breath under her stare. In the past, his mother was a beautiful symbol for him. She was gentle, strong, and kind. But now, Zhuang Liushi had become greedy, selfish, and unreasonable …
Zhuang Liushi's many shortcomings that he didn't want to accept were exposed. He really couldn't accept it more and more and didn't want to stay in this family.
So the cave in the suburbs became the place where he escaped from Zhuang Liushi. There was a beautiful and obedient fox there, who always played with him and made him happy. He sometimes took Bai Yi with him, but most of the time, Zhuang Liushi would let Bai Yi do things, and he would go by himself.
And Zhuang Liushi seemed to have more and more opinions about Bai Yi. She hated him getting along with Bai Yi. In order not to listen to Zhuang Liushi's nagging, he naturally reduced the time he spent with Bai Yi.
Bai Yi's camouflage became more and more skilled in these few days. Whether it was a fake fox or a fake Bai Yi, she could easily deceive the mother and son of the Zhuang family. Anyway, she always got along with Zhuang Yulang. Every time she was happy, it was true.
When she was a fox, she heard Zhuang Yulang holding her and talking about his dissatisfaction with Zhuang Liushi, the pressure of studying, and his love for Bai Yi. All the words that he couldn't say to others, he said to the white fox. When Bai Yi heard this, she only felt that she had become the closest existence to her benefactor.
When she was Bai Yi, Zhuang Yulang would also talk to her about the fox. How much he liked the fox made Bai Yi very happy.
She also gradually moved her heart in this kind of interaction.
She made a paper crane and sent a message to Chu Xiang. [Xiang 'er, what should I do? I seem to like my benefactor! He, he also likes me. You … … Do you want me to marry him? After I marry him, I will wash his clothes and cook for him, give birth to a few cute children for him, and then help him to have a meteoric rise. Will I be repaying his kindness?]
When Chu Xiang received the message, she was on the way back to the town. She replied to Bai Yi with a face full of question marks. [Are you possessed? Was your head kicked by a donkey? You cultivated for hundreds of years just to do this?]
Li Yufeng couldn't stop laughing. He ridiculed on the side, "I haven't seen her for a few days, and she went astray? Hey, that's not right. Isn't this what many women do? If they are happy, there's nothing wrong with that, right? It's just that humans and demons have different paths. It's not easy. "
Chu Xiang glanced at him. "Why don't you let a man take care of his wife and children? Bai Yi is so much stronger than a scholar, but she has to hide herself and pretend to be a weak woman to be his vassal. Is she crazy? "
Li Yufeng was immune to her various thoughts. He rubbed the back of his head and said, "Taking care of his wife and children sounds not bad. Xiang Xiang, what do you think of me? I'm very obedient and very suitable to be a good husband. No, a good husband. Also, I can help you beat up that stinky Daoist priest, help you find people, and help you gather information. Aren't you and I good in every way? Can't be more suitable, right? "
"En?" Chu Xiang glanced at him. "Are you a vixen or am I a vixen? Why do I feel like you're a slut? "
"No … … I don't think so. Just these few ah." Li Yufeng stood in front of her and watched as she walked backwards. He smiled and said, "Think about it. Don't you like good-looking people? I'm good-looking! Don't you like capable people? I can do it! Also, also, don't you like obedient people? I'm obedient! Do you think I'm a vixen? That means we're fated to be together! "
Chu Xiang raised her hand and pushed him to the side. "If you want to warm the bed, it depends on your performance. Find those three stinky Daoists first. Don't talk nonsense here."
"Find them, I'll find them immediately!" Li Yufeng took out the eight trigrams plate and began to search for their location.
They had followed some traces before, but those three Daoists had already left. They searched for new traces and didn't expect to return to the city. It seemed like those three didn't receive any news from their companions and decided to come find them personally.
Li Yufeng and Chu Xiang found the three Daoists outside the city, but they just happened to see someone invite them into a carriage.
Li Yufeng frowned slightly and carefully identified it. "Isn't that the Jiang Estate's carriage? Why did they invite these Daoists? I didn't hear about their relationship! "
Chu Xiang stretched and said, "Is it because you're not up to date with the news?"
"How is that possible? Who am I? I'm known as the Jianghu All-knowing Scholar! There's nothing in this world that I don't know! "
Chu Xiang immediately looked at him and raised her eyebrows. "So you knew about the grudge between us and those stinky Daoists from the beginning."
Li Yufeng giggled. "Of course I knew. Otherwise, why would I help two demons kill the Daoists? But so what if I know? Haven't I always been good to you? I'm even better now, and I'll be even better in the future. I'll be as good as I want. How about it? Will you accept me? "
"Don't you think that humans and demons are different now? Have you forgotten that you're a human and I'm a demon? "Chu Xiang looked at him and really wanted to know what he was thinking.
Li Yufeng didn't care. "Humans and demons are different because they can't accept it. How can I be the same? I like you so much. "
"Shameless."
"I can't be shameless in front of you. Otherwise, I won't be able to exchange a glance for a lifetime."
Chu Xiang laughed, "Then you can continue to be shameless. Right now, take revenge for me first." Let's go and see what the relationship between the Jiang Estate and those three Daoists is. "
Li Yufeng was very familiar with the city, so he quickly took Chu Xiang into the Jiang Estate.
One of the three Daoists was poisoned with cold poison. His face was pale and he was a little weak. As soon as he entered the Jiang Estate, he was settled in the VIP room. One of the other two happened to be good at medicine, so he was asked to treat Miss Jiang.
The Daoist frowned when he saw Miss Jiang's face and eyes. "What a strong demon aura!"
"What? Demon aura? " The magistrate's wife was shocked. Although she listened to the old lady's words, she didn't believe it. She was just trying to make a last resort.
But the word "demon aura" really scared her!
Where did the demon come from? Why did the demon come to harm the Jiang Estate? Were they in danger? How to kill the demon?
She had a lot of questions to ask. The Daoist was very familiar with this situation. He didn't give her a chance to speak and took out a long list of things to let the magistrate's wife prepare.
Sometimes, the more arrogant a person was, the easier it was to be trusted. The magistrate's wife was like this. Hearing the orders of the Daoist, she immediately ordered people to do it and even treated the Daoist respectfully.
The Daoist felt something was wrong. He found an excuse to cultivate and went back to the room to talk to the other two Daoists. "What happened? The demon aura here is very strong. That concubine's daughter was obviously bewitched by the fox spirit. Big Brother and the others didn't do anything. Could it be … that something happened? "
The Daoist who was poisoned coughed a few times. "It's all my fault. If it weren't for refining pills for me, you wouldn't have schemed against those two fox spirits. Now … I don't know what background those two fox spirits have. Maybe their companions really found them. "
"Impossible. Before we dealt with them, Big Brother found out clearly that they relied on each other for survival and had no relatives or friends. Although their cultivation was strong, they were ignorant and the easiest to deal with. If they had relatives or friends, why didn't they bring them to the snow mountain? "
"That makes sense. But who did this to the concubine's daughter? It can't be those two fox spirits who were dying, right? How could they recover so quickly? "
"But if they really recovered their cultivation, then the disappearance of Big Brother and the others can be explained."
The three of them were a little uneasy. They didn't come up with any ideas for a long time. As long as they cured Miss Jiang first, they would see what she knew.
Chu Xiang went to look at Miss Jiang. "It was Bai Yi who did it. How did she provoke Bai Yi?"
Li Yufeng touched his chin and asked, "How do you know that Bai Yi didn't tease her because of last time's matter?"
Chu Xiang rolled her eyes at him. "Of course I know my little sister. After that time, Bai Yi might not remember her. If she didn't court death and provoke Bai Yi, Bai Yi wouldn't find trouble with her. Let's go and find Bai Yi to see what's going on. We can see if her brain is damaged. She actually wants to marry that scholar and have a few children! "
Li Yufeng saw her leave and hurriedly followed. He laughed and said, "With you as her sister, I don't think she can marry!"
"She can marry, but if she marries like her, she will be crippled sooner or later!"
Li Yufeng also felt that Bai Yi was too simple. She had a lot of skills, but she didn't know how to use them. She didn't understand the rules of the world. If she really married into the Zhuang Family, something would happen sooner or later.
The two of them rushed to the Zhuang Family's house. It was a coincidence that Zhuang Liushi accidentally let Zhuang Yulang know that she sold the fox!
The Zhuang Family's mother and son quarreled. Bai Yi didn't know what to do. When she saw Chu Xiang, she hurriedly ran to her side.
"Xiang 'er, you're back? They are quarreling so fiercely. Help me think of a way to stop them … "
"Stop them for what? Let them quarrel. But you, come, tell me what you think. "
