Chapter 481 The Truth About Xiu Nu (Part 2)



"Master, the millet porridge is ready. Shall we bring it in now?"

Ying'er's voice came from outside the house.

Su Xiaoxiao said calmly, "Come in."

Ying'er pushed the door open and walked in. Looking at Wei Ting who was sitting at the head of the bed, she said in surprise, "My son-in-law has recovered so quickly. He can already sit up!"

Last time, quite a few wounded people came to the clinic, but none of them was as seriously injured as Wei Ting, who had to lie in bed for ten days or half a month.

Su Xiaoxiao folded her arms and said, "Isn't that because I have excellent medical skills?"

"The master's medical skills are superb!" Ying'er put down the millet porridge with a smile, "Master is also in good health!"

Su Xiaoxiao was both angry and amused: "This girl really doesn't want to offend anyone!"

Wei Ting had a poor appetite and could not eat any more after eating half a bowl.

Thinking of something, Su Xiaoxiao said, "By the way, Wei Ting, I have something to ask you."

Wei Ting: "The first day of July."

Su Xiaoxiao's face darkened.

Wei Ting smiled coldly: "You are so impatient, are you afraid that I will run away?"

It is already mid-May, and the first day of July is only the month after next.

Su Xiaoxiao folded her arms and said seriously, "Ask again! About that day in the Imperial Observatory!"

Wei Ting asked seriously, "The Imperial Astronomical Observatory selected two auspicious days. Is it the end of October or the first day of July?"

Su Xiaoxiao decisively chose the latter: "July 1st!"

Wait... this guy is trying to trick her! Wei Ting laughed so hard that he accidentally pulled his wound and immediately stopped laughing.

She died, and he was in pain, so they were even.

Su Xiaoxiao can take it or leave it. Face is not important, eight-pack abs are the most important.

Thinking of this, Su Xiaoxiao quickly brought the remaining half bowl of porridge: "Eat more, you will get better soon."

Wei Ting: Why do I feel like you have some bad intentions?

Su Xiaoxiao asked, "But, you Gu... cough, don't people in Beijing believe in ghosts and gods? July is the ghost month, especially after the Ghost Festival, it is said that the dead will return to the human world. Is it really okay to get married in July?"

Su Xiaoxiao doesn't care, she doesn't believe it.

Wei Ting looked up at the top of the tent and said faintly, "Only in this way can the undead spirits of my Wei family come to attend our wedding."

Su Xiaoxiao: Why do I feel so excited for no apparent reason?

The truth is, although July is known as the Ghost Month, the first day of July this year was indeed an auspicious day calculated by Sikong Yun.

Su Xiaoxiao got back to the point: "By the way, Wei Ting, I have a question for you."

Wei Ting said: "You say."

Su Xiaoxiao wondered, "How do you know that Mo Guiyuan will definitely go to Lihua Lane?"

Wei Ting said: "There is a passage in Lihua Lane that leads to the second peach forest."

Su Xiaoxiao was stunned: "The second peach forest?"

Wei Ting shook his eyes to indicate his head: "It's not that big peach forest, it's a small base of the White Lotus Sect, and it has all the arrangements needed for evacuation."

This statement contained a lot of information. Su Xiaoxiao touched her chin and asked, "When did you find out?"

"Before we entered the peach forest this time." Wei Ting paused, "My mother told me."

"Is this information also obtained from Madam Guo?" Su Xiaoxiao already knew that Qin Canglan's marching route was from the map provided by Madam Wei.

Mo Guiyuan arranged for Madam Guo to marry into the capital because he discovered that his daughter was out of his control. Madam Guo was loyal to Mo Guiyuan, and if Madam Wei had not threatened Guo Huan's life this time, Madam Guo would never have betrayed Mo Guiyuan.

Of course, Mrs. Wei just wrote a blank check, it was impossible for her to save Guo Huan.

Madam Wei, who had been monitored and threatened by her biological father for half her life, finally dealt a fatal blow to Mo Guiyuan.

Su Xiaoxiao asked: "Where is the passage to Lihua Lane? Don't tell me, it's at our house."

Wei Ting paused and said, "At Lingyun's house."

Su Xiaoxiao was slightly surprised: "Ling Yun he..."

Wei Ting understood what she was wondering about and said, "Ling Yun moved here three years ago. The secret passage existed long before that. He might have just rented the house by accident."

Su Xiaoxiao said thoughtfully: "Since it is a house with secrets, why would it be rented out? Don't you think it's strange?"

Wei Ting analyzed: "Perhaps this is the only way to conceal our tracks. If it was really someone from the White Lotus Sect living there, they would have been discovered long ago."

"That's true." But Su Xiaoxiao always felt that something was wrong.

She couldn't figure it out, so she simply gave up thinking about it and decided to ask Ling Yun directly next time.

Su Xiaoxiao added: "There is one thing I have never understood. Why does the White Lotus Sect plant peach trees? Why not lotus flowers?"

Wei Ting said: "Maybe... people can't live underwater?"

Su Xiaoxiao glared at him.

Wei Ting smiled, then pulled the wound again, gasping in pain.

Wei Ting recalled: "My grandmother loved to grow peaches. I heard from my brothers that there were large tracts of peach trees in my grandmother's home in Lingnan. When my grandmother was alive, she would send peaches she planted to Beijing every year."

Su Xiaoxiao hummed: "Is Mo Guiyuan still a pervert?"

Wei Ting sighed and said, "Who knows?"

Maybe I just moved myself.

"Sir!" Yuchi Xiu rushed in, poured himself a cup of tea and drank it all in one gulp. "Xiu Nu has been buried. I specially found a Feng Shui treasured site. I am so tired!"

"You buried Xiu Nu?" Su Xiaoxiao was a little surprised.

Wei Ting pondered and said, "Xiu Nu was killed by Mo Guiyuan because he refused to kill me. And I always feel that the person he knows may have some relationship with the Wei family."

Su Xiaoxiao asked, "Are you talking about the other owner of the iron bell he met?"

Wei Ting hummed: "Before he died, he told me a name, Master Guibu."

Su Xiaoxiao pondered and said, "Master Guibo? This is more like a title in the underworld."

Wei Ting nodded: "Master Guibu should be the owner of the other iron bell. This iron bell was specially made by my father, and only my brothers and I have it."

Su Xiaoxiao looked at him and asked, "Do you suspect that man is one of your brothers?"

Wei Ting said, "When I rushed to the border to collect the bodies of my grandfather, father and brothers, except for my grandfather's body, which was beheaded and hung on the frozen city wall, it did not decay. The rest... were thrown into the wilderness and were more or less unrecognizable. My sixth brother's body was almost gone, with only a suit of armor and unrecognizable remains. But since my sixth brother came back alive, those remains must have belonged to someone else. I'm thinking..."

Su Xiaoxiao finished his words for him: "Could there be other bodies that were mistaken?"

This guess is not unreasonable, it is even very reliable.

If possible, Wei Ting hoped that everyone would be alive, but he also knew in his heart that this was impossible. It was a miracle that only Sixth Brother was alive, so how could he be so greedy as to ask everyone to crawl out of the pile of dead bodies? Su Xiaoxiao thought about it and said seriously, "Wei Ting, let's go for the autopsy."

Anyone want to see the third update?
