Chapter 12012 The sister-in-law she mentioned was Zhuang Ronger...
Suddenly, I heard a gasp, coming from Shui Wu.
When Ah Huai was brought onto the singing stage, she had already been thrown out by the waiter. This was the first time she saw this face, how could she not be amazed?
Zhuang Rong'er frowned.
She controlled the ups and downs of her emotions, put everything she had just remembered behind her, and walked forward as naturally as possible in front of outsiders. She did not question Ah Huai "Why are you here", but put Ah Huai's mask back on him.
Her movements were familiar and intimate, which just brought Shui Wu back to her senses.
Shui Wu's throat rolled, and she asked uncontrollably, "Sister-in-law... who is he?"
As soon as she asked this question, Ah Huai's fingers suddenly curled up and he looked up at her.
When he walked over, he looked at the two people beside Zhuang Rong'er. After he showed up, both of them stared at him very rudely. He was not unfamiliar with the expression on the woman's face, and the young man's face also showed a creepy infatuation, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
Originally, he was more wary and attentive to the man, but the woman's words were shocking.
Sister-in-law?
Is the sister-in-law she mentioned Zhuang Rong'er?
When Liu Li introduced Zhuang Rong'er, he did not mention that she already had a Taoist partner.
If she had already started a family, then what was he now?
Does Zhuang Rong'er's "Taoist companion" know that she bought him?
Ah Huai's expression beneath the mask gradually froze, his thoughts racing in a whirlwind.
When Zhuang Rong'er's hand touched his arm, he instinctively shrank back. After he came to his senses, he refrained from moving, but the skin that came into contact with those hands became extremely sensitive.
Zhuang Rong'er looked back, also somewhat unhappy. Yu Huanye and Shui Wu were both staring at A Huai. Even though she had put A Huai's mask on, she still had the illusion that her treasure was being coveted by others.
She took Ah Huai's arm and wanted to take him away and settle him down. She had no intention of explaining to Shui Wu's questions.
Yu Huanye chuckled and said, "Miss Shui, don't you know? That's the beauty that Master Zhuang bought with a huge sum of money."
"...A slave, huh? I, I understand." Shui Wu looked a little strange, and then she shouted behind her, "Sister-in-law, my brother isn't the kind of person who doesn't tolerate others, but you...but you better not let this slave show his face in front of him in the future."
Zhuang Rong'er felt the person beside her stiffen.
She was moved, but turned her head and said seriously, "I've said it many times, I'm not your sister-in-law. No matter what Shui Jue did to cause you to misunderstand, it has nothing to do with me. If you have nowhere to go for the time being, follow me first."
"Ah? Sister-in-law, what did you say..." Shui Wu stood there and did not catch up.
It's like this again. Zhuang Rong'er never has the patience to explain things twice.
But it's enough that someone listened.
Ah Huai relaxed again, and whispered in her ear, "I rushed into the city to look for you because I have something to tell you..."
"It's just right that you're here, otherwise I would have to go pick you up. We'll stay in the city tonight." Zhuang Rong'er said thoughtfully, "If the matter is not too urgent..."
"Must you stay in the city? What I want to say is that someone deliberately lured you into the city. Their intentions are unclear, but they are willing to use a trick against you."
"It's okay." Zhuang Rong'er also felt it, but she is not a person who will give up because of choking.
Since it was said that You Xueqi's ghost would appear in the city, she should meet her old friend no matter what.
What's more, Yu Huanye had just said almost everything about how to break the impasse... That person was indeed not a simple person, but he should not have lied.
No matter how she considered it, she had to live in the city, even if this decision would please some people.
If Ah Huai had not suddenly appeared, she would probably have stayed there and given Yu Huanye a small punishment. She always hated being plotted against, and then returned to the cave as soon as possible to bring Ah Huai back into the city.
It was only a few hours before dusk, and since Ah Huai had found her with his family, she decided to choose a house to stay in first.
The sandstorm demons will be lining up to appear again tonight, and I can imagine that the scene will be quite lively.
They quickly found a house not far from the city to stay in.
This house is located in the middle of the townhouses. The gates on both sides have been damaged to varying degrees, but this one still looks sturdy and has no signs of having been occupied by monks. It is also quite far away from the monks' settlement.
However, once you step inside the house, you can see that the building has been abandoned for a long time, the ground is covered with dust, and it is extremely dilapidated.
Only the main structure is relatively solid, and the door panels are also strong - these are essential conditions for dealing with sandstorms and hundreds of ghosts.
Ah Huai handed over two Qiankun bags.
One of them was her own, and the other was very unfamiliar.
"I put all the things back into your Qiankun bag. The other one was left by a cultivator who attacked you after you left." Ah Huai explained.
"...Did he hurt you?"
“No.”
Zhuang Rong'er nodded, without any intention of opening the Qiankun bag to search it immediately, and just put it on the ground casually.
She took a deep breath and suppressed the murderous intent that was surging in her heart.
The Qiankun bag was looted, proving that the person was dead, otherwise she would definitely have dealt with him well.
Thinking that the little snake must have done a great job in protecting its master, she gently stroked the little snake that was wrapped around her other wrist like a white jade bracelet.
The little snake enjoyed it very much and raised its head to rub against her, being extremely flattering.
Ah Huai looked at this scene and looked away silently.
"Let it stay with you." Zhuang Rong'er said, "I'm going out to look for Shui Wu."
Shui Wu did not come with her, and the Yu Huanye beside her was not someone who could be trusted.
If it were any other day, she wouldn't have bothered to meddle in other people's business, but tonight was special, and she was definitely not the only one preparing to take action. After all, Shui Wu had helped her, and what's more, she was her friend's younger sister, so she should have protected her safety out of both moral and legal necessity.
Zhuang Rong'er went out.
Only Ah Huai and the little snake were left at the two ends of the room.
Ah Huai picked up the sword he got from Liu Li, looked at the sky outside through the window, and no one knew what he was thinking on his calm face.
Suddenly, his eyes fixed and he turned his head to look at the wall on the right.
From a distance across the wall, he keenly felt that there seemed to be something behind it.
Something sticky and foul-smelling, coming from a very cold place, a place he had been to before.
Ah Huai didn't understand why he suddenly made such a judgment. He hesitated for a moment, glanced at the little snake's dull reaction, walked forward and touched the wall with his fingers.
…
Behind the wall, a man had a frosty face. He closed his eyes tightly and his eyelids kept trembling, as if he was in a nightmare.
He sat on a bed covered with spider webs, holding a compass the size of a full moon in his left hand.
The compass body is black with a circle of gold thread around it, and the surface of the compass is engraved with dense cinnabar runes, which give people a splitting headache at a glance.
The man with his eyes closed was stroking the disk with his fingers. When he touched a certain rune, he stopped moving and the expression on his face became terrifying, as if he was suppressing his rage.
The cinnabar of that rune showed signs of being altered, but the bloodstains on it were still relatively fresh. The evil ghost it represented was none other than the sand ghost that had ruined his plans and provoked someone he shouldn't have.
This shouldn't have been the case, but someone changed his evil ghost plate!
He had attracted a stupid ghost that didn't wreak havoc in the city, but instead wandered outside, where it was tortured half to death by Zhuang Rong'er! He was thus implicated by the ghost and suffered the resulting pain! Damn it!
Now that he is injured, wouldn't it be useless for him to lose against You Xueqi?
He had known for a long time that Chang Bao would set a trap for him, but he was no longer the You Weining who was powerless against the difficulties of his family and the city a hundred years ago. Why couldn't he, who was so confident, take advantage of the situation?
I'm afraid the old man doesn't know yet, he has had an opportunity that ordinary people rarely have, and has become a half-human, half-ghost monster, and does not rely on spiritual energy cultivation at all.
The so-called Quicksand City sealed by the God-Devouring Pearl did not put any pressure on him at all. He could simply use the hands of others to achieve his own goal - to obtain the time and space buried under the ancient Quicksand City.
This rare treasure brought disaster to this city a hundred years ago and led to its destruction.
Because there is only one way to open the underground passage to obtain Shi Ye, that is to use the blood of the Lord of Quicksand City to open the wordless stone tablet, and then fill the sand eyes with human blood.
A hundred years later, the so-called "great power" once again wanted to take the things from Shi Ke. I believe it would not be a big deal if he took one or two.
As long as he could get ahead and kill You Xueqi here.
He is the only one left as the last bloodline of their Liusha City.
As the only key that can open the underground passage, no matter what he does, he cannot be wiped out by the powerful one. You Xueqi must have thought so too, so she also tried to get rid of him.
It's really ridiculous. They are obviously blood-related siblings, but instead of pointing their swords of revenge at the enemy who massacred the city, they point them at each other.
However, he thought he was much nobler than You Xueqi. At least he did not beg for mercy at the hands of his enemies. Unlike You Xueqi, he became a dog under the seat of a powerful man.
It was rumored in the outside world that Madam Xueqi was dead, and the rumors became even more intense after she entered the city.
But only he knew that You Xueqi was definitely not dead, and he could not sense her ghost at all.
He had just sensed that a monk had died outside the city, because that person's ghost had left this space, and nothing could escape his eyes with his special physique.
You Weining was stroking the evil ghost plate, thinking of a countermeasure, when he suddenly heard two "knock knocks" coming from the wall.
He suddenly opened his eyes and his expression became serious.
——Someone moved in next door, and he was completely unaware.
Someone who could deceive his perception like this... Could it be that he was the one who manipulated the evil ghost disk?
The knocking on the wall stopped. You Weining took the evil ghost plate into his arms, put on the fox mask beside him, stood up and walked out.
