Chapter 145 I'll be back soon

"...What?" Jiang Ke was a little stunned.

"But...if it wasn't for this reason, why would I do those things in the middle of the night and I couldn't remember them at all?"

"Besides, it only happens when I'm in my own room... I see. Are you trying to say that the evil spirit is not haunting me, but is only haunting my room?"

He felt like he had figured it out.

"I can help you solve your problem," Yun Qingqing said, "but you need to exchange it for an old item that you have used for more than five years and that is meaningful to you."

"Ah? You don't need money?" Jiang Ke was a little surprised.

"No, but more than five years must mean something to you. These two conditions are indispensable. If you don't want to, forget it."

Jiang Ke pondered for a moment, then took out a pen from his sleeve. The wolf hair on the pen tip had fallen off a lot:

"I have used this pen for six or seven years and have never been willing to replace it. Today, I wanted to find a store to repair it. Can I use this as payment?"

"Okay." Yun Qingqing nodded and took it, then continued the previous topic.

"Think about it carefully. Why do you think that you did what happened in the middle of the night?"

"Of course it's because..." Jiang Ke frowned, "My brother and sister-in-law both said so. They wouldn't lie to me."

"Are you sure?" Yun Qingqing curled her lips without a smile.

Jiang Ke was stunned for a moment, his expression changed slightly:

"Master, please don't make random guesses. Azhuo is my brother. How could he tease me with such a thing?"

"Guess?" Yun Qingqing glanced at him calmly, "You are thirty-eight this year. Your parents died early, and you raised your brother who is ten years younger than you alone."

"When your brother got married, you bought the house and the betrothal gift. But after a few years, they became poor and sold their house. Then they came to you and have lived in your house ever since."

"You have had two wives. The first one died of illness, and the second one died in an accident five years ago. Although there have been matchmakers since then, you have never remarried."

Jiang Ke widened his eyes and said in shock:

"Exactly. You are truly an expert. You can calculate even these details so accurately."

Yun Qingqing looked straight at him:

"You should understand now. Why should I guess when I can know the answer with just one calculation?"

Jiang Ke paused, his face suddenly turned pale:

"You mean... Azhuo and the others lied to me?"

"Every time you wake up and find that the room has been tampered with, do you feel groggy and have a headache?" Yun Qingqing asked.

Jiang Ke nodded repeatedly:

"Exactly! Isn't this caused by evil spirits?"

"I told you that you are not infected with evil spirits." Yun Qingqing shook her head. "If you want to know the truth, don't touch any food or drink at home before going to bed these few days, but don't let your brother and sister-in-law find out."

"If you hear any noise in the house at night, don't move. Just keep pretending to be asleep. After three days at most, everything will become clear."

Jiang Ke's face turned even paler.

"Azhuo often gives me milk to drink before bed, saying it can calm the nerves and help me sleep... I always drink it in front of him. If I suddenly refuse, I'm afraid it will arouse his suspicion."

He had always treated this beef as a younger brother who cared about him, so he had to watch him finish drinking it. Now that the master said this, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart.

Thinking about it carefully, it is true that every time after drinking the milk, he would soon feel drowsy and fall into a deep sleep.

Could it be that they really added something in it?

If his brother and sister-in-law were really plotting against him, they would definitely try every means to watch him drink the beef, and he would probably not be able to refuse.

Yun Qingqing thought for a moment, took out a piece of yellow paper and quickly drew a talisman and handed it to him:

"Next time after you drink what they hand you, burn this into ashes and drink it with water to keep you conscious."

Jiang Ke quickly took it and thanked him.

He carefully put the talisman into his arms, hesitated for a moment, and finally asked:

"Master, can you tell me why my brother did this? He has always respected and relied on me as his elder brother. If he didn't have some unspeakable difficulties, he would definitely not make things difficult for me."

"Maybe he didn't tell me because he was thinking about me. If I expose him like this... I'm worried that it will affect our brotherly relationship."

Yun Qingqing looked at him calmly with a cold expression:

"You should first find out what happened that night, then you will know whether he has his own reasons. Then you can decide whether to expose them or not, right?"

"Master, you are very wrong." Jiang Ke calmed down, bowed and left in a hurry.

Qing Jue poked his head in from the door and asked curiously:

"Sister Qingqing, what's the situation with this man's brother? Do you already know? Tell me about it!"

Although he had been outside the door just now, the person on the other side could hear it clearly.

Yun Qingqing frowned slightly:

"Why rush? He will come back soon, and then the truth will be revealed."

The sound of the copper bell rang again at the gate.

The next guest arrived.
