Zou Zheng said decisively, "Okay, I can promise you."
Zou Zheng was very straightforward. A wisp of ghost energy cut Xiao Shaoyan's knee. As he screamed, a bug flowed out of the blood and was exposed to the air, dying soon after.
"I have already taken out the poisonous insect. This insect was once raised by the royal family, and only members of the royal family can remove it. I have completed the master's instructions."
"Um!"
Wen Xi looked at the uncle and nephew of the Xiao family, "I have fulfilled my promise to you. The poisonous insect has been taken out. From now on, Xiao Shaoyan only needs to rest for a while, and his legs will be fine. So I have completed what I promised you. When the time comes, just transfer the money to me. Thank you!"
If it weren't for the last sentence, Xiao Changji almost wanted to say "thank you".
"Very good. In this case, the Xiao family's link ends here. Zou Zheng, you stay with me. I will find the jade seal for you!"
Wen Xi is very smart. This way, it’s a win-win situation, so great!
Zou Zheng said seriously, "Sir, it's not just about finding the jade seal. I have so much merit and I have burial objects. I have to have more conditions."
"?"
Wen Xi curled her lips and asked, "Any other conditions? Let me hear them first."
"Not much, not much, just three conditions!"
Zou Zheng said, "First, of course, is to help me find the imperial seal. Second, help me find my princess. Third... I haven't thought of anything specific yet. I'll bring it up later."
“…”
Wen Xi said with a wooden face, "You are so shameless. Don't you think you are too shameless?"
"This king keeps his word. These three conditions are more than enough!"
"It's okay to find the imperial seal, but why do I have to help you find the princess? Don't you know where your wife is?"
"I haven't seen her since my soul awakened. I've searched the tomb, but there's nothing but a pile of dry bones."
Zou Zheng looked sad, but there was still a hint of longing in his eyes.
"If she doesn't have a soul, she must have gone to reincarnate. Why are you still looking for her? Remember, humans and ghosts have different paths!"
"Even if I'm reincarnated, I want to see how she's doing now."
It was really hard to believe that Zou Zheng, with that elegant and romantic face, could say such affectionate words.
"Okay, promise!"
For the golden merits in his soul, Wen Xi gritted his teeth and agreed.
"Then you need to stay with me. When you go out, just get into my ancient copper coin."
Wen Xi tapped the ancient bronze coin on his wrist.
"Okay, I'll follow your instructions, sir."
Zou Zheng waved his hand, and the coffin appeared from the tomb. "Sir, you can take all the treasures in my coffin. These are part of my reward."
“No!”
The archaeologist, who had been playing dumb all this time, bit the corner of his clothes but still managed to cry out. Feeling Zou Zheng's sinister gaze, he trembled, "Oh, oh, oh, those things need to be confiscated. You can't take them away without permission."
Zou Zheng shook his sleeves and said, "These treasures belong to me. How can you confiscate them just because you want to? Believe it or not, I will eat you."
"Oh, ignore me."
The archaeologist hugged his head spinelessly.
"We'll talk about treasure later. Let's get out of here first."
"good!"
Zou Zheng waved his hand and the coffin disappeared out of thin air. He really didn't want anyone to take away his treasure.
"Come in, ancient copper coins."
Zou Zheng also obeyed obediently, turning into a wisp of black mist and drilled into the ancient bronze coin. Soon, the sound of a tea party came from the ancient bronze coin, and no one knew what they were talking about.
"Wen Xi, thank you."
After leaving the tomb, the long-lost sunlight shone on his face. Xiao Shaoyan let out a breath and expressed his gratitude sincerely.
"You're welcome. I'm paid to do my job. It's my duty."
“…”
Xiao Shaoyan was speechless for a moment, and after a long while he said, "Are you really going to help that Wang to deal with my father?"
"Xiao Shaoyan, this is not called dealing with him. He just wants to get his things back. What's more, Zou Zheng is a ghost warrior with merits and a rare dragon spirit body in the world. He is definitely a good person."
Wen Xi said seriously, "Do you really trust your father so much? The jade seal has dragon energy, and from the perspective of feng shui, it is also very beneficial for ordinary people. He has a reason to steal the jade seal."
Xiao Shaoyan closed his eyes and said, "The last scene in my memory was that my father and I were poisoned by the gas together. Later, I was rescued by my third uncle, so I don't think he abandoned me. What's more, this is not important anymore. I just want to find him and make sure he is safe!"
Wen Xi said slowly, "He's not dead!"
"What?"
"Your father is not dead!"
Wen Xi said seriously, "When we were in the tomb, I told you that you and your son would be reunited. That means he must not be dead. I just don't know where he is hiding or why he is hiding."
Xiao Shaoyan's face was pale, and his hands were clenched into fists.
He said in a deep voice, "I... really don't know what happened to him while I was unconscious, and why. I can't figure it out."
Xiao Changji patted his shoulder and said, "Don't think too much. He is a man who values friendship and loyalty. Before he disappeared, he was still taking care of all the affairs of the Xiao family. I believe he must have a reason. He is definitely not a thief."
"Yeah, I know!"
Xiao Shaoyan wiped his face and said coldly, "Don't worry, Third Uncle, I won't give up. I must find my father."
