Xie Beiming used sound transmission. The moment the clear and clean voice sounded in his mind, it was like a feather brushing his cheeks, bringing an indescribable numbness.
Shen Qiqi's legs almost gave out, and the balance in her heart instantly tilted to Xie Beiming's side.
She immediately withdrew her sympathy for Jiang Xiyan, transferred all her heartache to Xie Beiming, and assured him:
"You, don't think too much. Jiang Xiyan and I had nothing before, nothing now, and we won't have anything in the future... After I get out of here, I will help him refine some body-tempering elixirs to repay him for what he did today. I made these.”
Jiang Xiyan was seriously injured by an evil poison before and was in great need of some good elixirs to reshape his muscles and bones.
The jade slip passed to her by the second master contained instructions on how to refine body tempering pills. When the time came, she would refine some and give them to Jiang Xiyan.
If the two don't owe each other, Xie Beiming won't think so much.
Sure enough, just after Shen Qiqi finished speaking, Xie Beiming's eyes overflowed with smiles, and the corners of his mouth could not help but tilt up, and he said, "Qiqi, thank you."
Shen Qiqi: "..."
I should be the one saying thank you.
Thank you for risking your life for me in your last life.
Thank you for never leaving me in this life.
However, Shen Qiqi couldn't say these words, so she raised the corners of her lips and showed a sweet smile to Xie Beiming.
The communication between the two people was through sound transmission. Others could not hear it. They could only see the two people staring at each other and smiling. The aura between the two people was as tight as a copper wall. No one could get in. .
Young girls in their prime, one delicate and luxurious, the other delicate and sweet, looked at each other and smiled. The scene was so beautiful that people couldn't bear to disturb them, and even the wind quietly stopped whistling.
Now it was Jiang Xiyan who felt sour in his heart.
Unfortunately, he did not have the skills of Mr. Xie, nor did he have the opportunity to belong to Mr. Xie alone. After silently braving the sour water for a while, he continued to lower his head and unpack his storage bag.
Little Sect Master Jiang, who has been well-fed and well-fed since he was a child, has been loved by thousands of people, is very considerate. He has prepared scarves, gloves and boots for everyone.
But what others got was not as exquisite as the one he gave Shen Qiqi.
Just as Jiang Xiyan said, the ground in the jungle is extremely muddy, with dead leaves and corpses intertwined with flesh and blood, and without sunlight for many years, they all rotted into mud. When you step on it, it's all sticky mud. Not only did it make a popping sound, but the indescribable stench came out from under the soles of the feet and went straight to the Tianling Cap.
Even with a cloth covering her mouth and nose, Shen Qiqi still felt nauseated and her stomach churned when she smelled the smell.
As for the trees in the jungle, they all look wet. You can tell without touching them that they must be sticky and slippery to the touch.
Some trees were even covered in a layer of weird mucus. Shen Qiqi carefully avoided them, trying not to get the disgusting mucus on her clothes.
Qingluo and Yinqiao were attentively guarding her on both sides, helping her clear away the branches and weeds blocking the way.
Fortunately, this road has an end.
After a group of five people walked inside for about a stick of incense, their originally dark eyes suddenly lit up.
Shen Qiqi raised her head and saw a few golden light spots coming from the boundless branches and scattering on the dead leaves full of mold spots at her feet.
Although this place is also very humid, the tree canopy is not that dense, so at least a little bit of sunlight can come in.
Shen Qiqi looked around again, then looked at Jiang Xiyan and confirmed, "Is this the place where my father's accident happened?"
Jiang Xiyan nodded: "Yes, this is it. I was chasing an evil spirit that day, and the evil spirit got into the jungle, so I chased it in. When I got here, I saw Sect Master Shen covered in blood. Fall there."
As he spoke, he walked towards the direction of his finger, and then marked an area on the ground with his feet for Shen Qiqi to see.
Probably because of the sunlight here, although there are many dead leaves on the ground here, they have not rotted into mud. It is relatively dry, and there is no pungent stench.
Shen Qiqi felt slightly better.
The mud in the jungle made from the corpses of dead leaves brought too much psychological shadow to her. If her father was lying in such stinky mud, even if she didn't see it with her own eyes, she would feel it just thinking about it. I felt very uncomfortable.
Fortunately, the place where my father was unconscious was not that bad.
But as Jiang Xiyan said, in a place surrounded by dark woods, it is impossible for anyone to pass by under normal circumstances. It is basically impossible to find a witness who was present when the incident occurred.
Moreover, several days have passed since the day of the incident, and there was a heavy rain during this period. Not to mention that there were no traces left, even if there were traces, they would have been washed away by the heavy rain.
Jiang Xiyan blamed himself: "They all blame me. At that time, I was only thinking about rescuing people quickly and didn't bother to survey the surrounding area..."
"This has nothing to do with you. You can help me send my father to Wuji Sect. I am already very grateful to you."
Shen Qiqi interrupted Jiang Xiyan's self-blame, then slightly narrowed her clear and lively phoenix eyes and looked around.
"It doesn't matter if you can't find any witnesses who were present at the time of the incident, as long as you can find a witness who was present at the time of the incident."
This is why she insisted on visiting the place where the incident occurred in person.
The gloomy air was billowing in this jungle, almost turning the sky black.
There were so many ghosts, I couldn't believe that none of them would be there when my father got into trouble.
Jiang Xiyan heard Shen Qiqi say that he could find clues. He was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but then he heard Shen Qiqi say that the way to find clues was to capture a ghost and come over for questioning. Jiang Xiaosect Master had already arrived. The air was stuck in my throat and couldn't come out.
I have always heard of catching and killing ghosts, but I have never heard of asking ghosts for questioning... Not to mention how people communicate with ghosts, let’s just talk about the incompatible position between monks and ghosts. Which one? Will ghosts be willing to be used by them?
This is simply impossible.
The little fairy is still too simple. Although her idea is very good, she is too naive.
Jiang Xiyan held her chin that was about to drop in shock, swallowed her saliva, and gently reminded Shen Qiqi: "Qiqi, I think we should try another method?"
Shen Qiqi blinked and looked at him: "Then, do you have a better way?"
"..." Jiang Xiyan choked, shook his head for a while and said, "Not yet, but we can think about it again... I don't think your method of catching Yin spirits and questioning them is very feasible."
"If you don't try, how will you know it won't work?" Shen Qiqi said, tilting her head and smiling slyly at Jiang Xiyan, "Don't worry, I have my own method."
After saying this, Shen Qiqi walked around with her hands behind her back, finally selected a place, tapped it with her toes, and said, "This is it."
Jiang Xiyan looked at the place where Shen Qiqi's feet were. Before she understood what she meant by "right here", she saw Shen Qiqi unhooking a storage bag from her waist, lowering her head and digging in it while shouting Two of my own maids.
"Qingluo Yinqiao, you two come over quickly to help pick up the things."
Qingluo and Yinqiao said "yes" and trotted over quickly.
Shen Qiqi had already opened the storage bag and pulled out a... ahem, a table.
Jiang Xiyan stared at the table, his eyes widening.
The table itself is not unusual. It is a square table, the kind of table used for dining at home. It is made of fine rosewood and looks very strong and durable at first glance.
But this is not the point. The point is: What is the little fairy doing dragging out a dining table at this time? Is it possible that the little fairy wants to entertain ghosts from all over the world here?
