Chapter 48
Sui Sui did not lower his voice.
Hearing the angry little voice, Luo Daoxuan and the others were startled and looked up.
Behind the railing on the second floor, a tall and graceful swordsman in a gray robe had an indifferent look on his face. The little baby in his arms poked out a fluffy head, with big black eyes blinking and a round face. He looked serious like a little adult, revealing a serious cuteness.
"Since you don't like Yunniang for branding Shi Yuxuan and Luo Daohang the murderers without any evidence, then you shouldn't be shouting that Yunniang is a bad person without any evidence. If you do that, aren't you acting exactly like Yunniang?" The fat boy was very fair and earnestly warned, "Don't do to others what you don't want done to you."
So, you should all go and learn from your brothers!
Although my elder brother always forced Sui Sui to read the Taoist scriptures, when Sui Sui was learning to read, my elder brother was also fully focused and patiently teaching Sui Sui.
My brother loves to study and practice!
The little fat boy thought to himself that he was impartial, and sure enough, Brother Sui Sui is the best~
Jiang Mingyan didn't know that Sui Sui's thoughts were drifting and had already spread to himself, who was completely unrelated to him.
He listened to the little fat boy's childish voice, advocating justice, and even saying the eight words "Do not do to others what you do not want others to do to you"! His eyes were filled with a mixture of relief and pride.
If Jiang Mingyan hadn't been accustomed to keeping a solemn expression and frowning, I'm afraid his silly brother's silly look would have been impossible to conceal.
However, even so, the aura on his body became more gentle.
Jiang Mingyan adjusted his position, holding the little chubby boy securely so that Sui Sui could be in the best possible view. He himself, however, focused on being the "tendering machine" for the boy, not disturbing the heroic Sui Sui as he worked on the case.
Sui Sui noticed her brother's thoughtfulness, and her conclusion became more and more certain: her brother is the best!
After being scolded by a little fat baby who looked like he was still breastfeeding, Luo Daoxuan's face immediately looked a little ugly.
But he is not the reckless son around him after all.
Luo Daoxuan looked around and saw that the cultivators in green sword robes looked normal, not taking any offense at all. He then exerted a little force with his palm to hold down his son who was about to speak, and forced a smile: "We know."
"So, we have evidence in our hands. Otherwise, how could we dare to disturb the immortals?"
An Jinyun, who was looking gently at the chubby-faced child on the second floor, turned her head to look at Luo Daoxuan, whose eyes were determined, and raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard this.
evidence?
Duan Jingyan lowered her head and exchanged glances with Shao Jishuang, then asked, "What evidence?"
"At home." Luo Daoxuan looked at Duan Jingyan eagerly: "Master, come with us and you will know."
Duan Jingyan pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement.
"Sui Sui wants to go too!" The little fat boy hurried to look at his brother, his eyes full of anticipation.
Jiang Mingyan gently tapped Sui Sui's fair and tender forehead, then asked Duan Jingyan, "Can Sui Sui and I participate in this?"
The little fat boy suddenly understood and looked at Duan Jingyan eagerly: "Sui Sui wants to know too. Sui Sui is so good for not making trouble~"
Listening to the little fellow praising himself in a baby voice, with a hint of pride in his expression, the sword cultivators present couldn't help but smile.
"Senior Sister..." The girl hiding behind Duan Jingyan couldn't help but call out first.
"Sui Sui is very well behaved. It's okay for us to take him with us." The young man next to the girl said immediately, "Besides, what Sui Sui said just now was very logical. If we take Sui Sui with us, maybe he can bring us more surprises."
Duan Jingyan glanced around and saw Shao Jishuang beside her also looking at her with an earnest look.
Duan Jingyan, who was 'surrounded' by these sword cultivators, said helplessly: "I didn't say no, it's still an investigation after all."
"Thank you, Sister Jingyan! Thank you, Grandpa!" The little fat boy cheered and smiled sweetly.
Sui Sui did not forget to imitate others in bowing and bowed in the same way.
A chubby little cub made this move with a serious expression, which was so childish and innocent that it was like a critical hit, going straight to the hearts of the sword cultivators present.
Even Luo Daoxuan and his companions looked a little more relaxed.
Jiang Mingyan chuckled, carried the little fat boy downstairs, and walked out of the inn with everyone else.
Luo Daoxuan and others led the way in front, while several sword cultivators from Xuanjian Pavilion lagged behind by two steps. Jiang Mingyan was holding Sui Suizhui at the end, and Yun Niang walked side by side with them.
Along the way, Sui Sui looked around with his little head raised, his black eyes full of curiosity, just like a lively kitten eager to try out the cloth mouse, always wanting to stretch out his furry paws to poke at it.
"Brother, this is..." The little fat boy scratched his round head and tried to organize his words: "It's different, but it's also very beautiful!"
Jiang Mingyan pinched the round tuft on Sui Sui's head and said softly, "Sui Sui likes it. We can stay in Xihua Town for a while."
He understood what the little fat boy meant.
Monsters and beasts are rampant in Wuzhou. Whether it is Quyuan Manor, Shanhe City, or Wuan City, there is a wild and untamed atmosphere. Under the polish of time, the vicissitudes of life still stand majestically.
But Xihua Town is different.
The town lives up to its name, with gurgling water and elegant autumn chrysanthemums. Even in late autumn, the pure and elegant scenery remains undimmed.
——It is an exquisite scenery that is completely different from Wuzhou.
Jiang Mingyan's eyes swept lightly over the green bricks and black tiles beside him, his phoenix eyes calm.
He once thought that one should not be confined to one corner every year.
The little fat boy should be happy every day, and his world should be full of flowers, with hundreds of flowers blooming and trees blooming in spring.
Jiang Mingyan had originally thought it would take some time before he could cross the Dusk Mountains with Sui Sui and leave Wuzhou. Unexpectedly, thanks to the Xuanguang giant beast, they accidentally arrived in Zhongzhou, fulfilling his wish ahead of time.
This is how fortune and misfortune go hand in hand.
Jiang Mingyan held the small, soft ball in his arms, looking at the bright smile on the little guy's face, and the corners of his lips curled up.
After walking out of the inn, crossing four streets and turning east twice, you'll see a small, crowded alley. The fourth door on the left in the alley is where Luo Daoxuan and his friends live.
“Squeak—”
The wooden door opened, and what followed was the soft crying of a child.
Seeing the adults coming back, the little girl holding the baby's eyes lit up and hurriedly walked towards the middle-aged woman behind Luo Daoxuan: "Mom, my little sister has been crying for a long time. She is hungry."
"Go away, don't you see we have guests at home? You won't starve to death if you skip a meal." The middle-aged woman looked at the crying baby in her arms with disgust, "You just cry, you're a debt collector."
The girl stopped timidly and stopped talking.
Luo Daoxuan turned a blind eye to this, and just smiled as he led Duan Jingyan and the others to a room in the corner: "This is it, the evidence is inside."
This is a fairly large yard.
However, no matter how big the yard is, it will seem cramped if it is filled with people.
Sui Sui could see children hiding in the windows of several houses and secretly looking at her.
There are several figures behind each window, some big and some small.
Is it because there is no room here anymore, so they want to rob Yunniang's inn?
The little fat boy frowned and thought.
Duan Jingyan glanced at the little girl who was standing timidly by the wall after being scolded, and silently followed Luo Daoxuan's steps.
Jiang Mingyan fell behind holding Suisui and Yunniang.
When Yunniang passed by the girl, she paused slightly, then lowered her eyes and continued walking.
Sui Sui didn’t think so much about it.
Ever since the middle-aged woman scolded the girl, the bright smile on the chubby boy's face disappeared.
The chubby little boy held in his brother's palm was puzzled and bewildered.
So, Sui Sui moved and whispered to his brother, "Brother, Sui Sui wants to go down."
Jiang Mingyan gently put the little fat boy down, and only took away his hand that was loosely supporting Suisui's back after he stood firmly.
The fat boy walked over with his short legs and took out two pieces of cake and handed them to the girl: "Your sister is crying. Crush this. She can eat it even if she doesn't have teeth. The other piece is for you."
The girl took it timidly.
Suisui stood on tiptoe again to look at the baby in the girl's arms, then turned back and threw herself into her brother's arms.
"Are you unhappy?" Jiang Mingyan picked up the little fat boy and asked in a gentle voice.
"I'm not happy." Sui Sui buried his chubby face in his brother's chest. After a while, he said sullenly, "Brother, you're so nice."
Jiang Mingyan paused slightly as he stroked the fat boy's back. Without waiting for Sui Sui to notice, he continued stroking him. "Because Sui Sui is also very, very good, whether it's being naughty or sneaking around to eat spiritual fruits. Sui Sui is so good, and your brother is only one ten-thousandth as good as Sui Sui."
"I didn't steal it!" The little fat cub was like a cat whose tail was stepped on. He immediately forgot about his previous disappointment and puffed up his cheeks in dissatisfaction. He muttered, "If Sui Sui wanted to eat it, he would ask his brother for it. That spiritual fruit fell to the ground and was eaten by Da Hei."
Thinking of the big black dog still sleeping on the soft couch in the inn room, the little fat boy was a little worried: "Brother, why hasn't Dahei woken up yet?"
Jiang Mingyan recalled the dark patterns he had discovered on the black dog's fur this morning, and his eyes darkened slightly: "Dahei is fine, he must be awakening his bloodline."
"Awakening bloodline..." The little fat boy recited it in a daze. Seeing that his brother was not worried, he relaxed too.
As they were talking, they entered the room in the corner of the yard.
Sui Sui and Jiang Mingyan were delayed for a while, and when they went in, they found that the atmosphere inside was a bit stiff.
The little fat boy blinked his round eyes, and before he could even look at the furnishings in the room, he whispered to Shao Jishuang, "Shao Jishuang, what's wrong? Why isn't everyone talking?"
When Shao Jishuang heard Mao Tuantuan's soft and baby voice, her icy blood-red eyes softened.
He hesitated for a moment and explained softly, "Luo Daoxuan and the others used the baby as a sacrifice to bring back a trace of Luo Daohang's soul."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Mingyan looked up, her eyes instantly turned cold, and she subconsciously covered the eyes of the soft ball in her arms.
Shao Jishuang was stunned and looked a little annoyed.
Sui Sui blinked, her long, thick eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she calmed down obediently.
Just now, as Luo Daoxuan entered this dimly lit room, he couldn't wait to speak: "Master, look."
He pointed at the tablet on the altar and the bloody porcelain bowl in front of it and said, "This is the secret technique of our Luo family. It can bring back the souls of the dead."
"We've already met Big Brother, and he said it himself that it was that bitch An Jinyun who killed him and his cousin!"
Except for Yunniang, Duan Jingyan and her group were all stunned.
Luo Daohang is dead, how could his soul still be in this world?
Although there are many legends about the underworld in the mortal world, as cultivators, Duan Jingyan and others know very well that legends are just legends after all.
After death, there is no resurrection. After the soul returns to heaven and earth, it is lost in the endless spiritual energy. Even if the soul is gathered again, it is a new life and no longer the same person.
However, thinking that Luo Daohang was still a cultivator, and that cultivators had unpredictable methods, the most common of which was that a Nascent Soul cultivator would die but the infant survived and could be resurrected, Duan Jingyan and the others couldn't help but look at Yun Niang.
Yun Niang met their gazes with a charming smile and said frankly, "Luo Daohang and I are both Jindan cultivators. As for whether he has a trick up his sleeve, I don't know."
While Duan Jingyan frowned and hesitated, Shao Jishuang looked at the bloody mass in the porcelain bowl and asked, "What is that?"
Luo Daoxuan was a little afraid of the boy with the bloodshot eyes, but when he mentioned the bloody mass, he was very calm: "It's just a weak baby girl. I happened to catch her in time. She can still be of some use."
The girl behind Duan Jingyan couldn't believe it: "What do you mean it's just a baby girl?"
These few of them were cultivators chosen from among the best. They had been meticulously nurtured by the sect and had slain demonic beasts and engaged in bloody battles.
However, those were just tiredness and pain. With the elders in the sect watching over me, nothing would really happen.
Now that I am going out for the first time to gain experience and face the ugliness of human nature, it is inevitable that I will be shocked.
"Xue Xuan." Duan Jingyan called out, signaling her to calm down.
Xue Xuan looked at Luo Daoxuan, who showed no remorse, pursed her lips and remained silent unwillingly.
"As expected of a Luo family member." Yun Niang smiled brightly, but her charming eyes were filled with ice coldness: "Extremely cruel and ruthless."
"What does blood ties mean? They are just stepping stones for you."
