"You mean we should thoroughly investigate the origins of the great demon and the woman's past first?" Chu Beiling understood immediately.
The voice was clear and crisp.
"yes!"
Li Yunle's eyes sparkled.
All the historical records of the city that never sleeps are kept in the city lord's mansion.
Li Yunle used his magic to follow Chu Beiling to investigate, but the case files alone filled several bookshelves, making it seem like a blind man trying to describe an elephant.
It's just too troublesome and difficult.
"What are we going to do? There are so many files, how are we going to find them!" Even based on the dates on the bookshelf, there are nearly a hundred books. Li Yunle said with a bitter face, "I hate reading the most."
Chu Beiling chuckled and shook his head: "Alright, then let me read these books."
"Mmm." Li Yunle nodded. "Chu Beiling, I have high hopes for you. Don't let me down."
These words were spoken not long ago.
Li Yunle was destined to be disappointed.
Who would have thought that Chu Beiling, who seemed so otherworldly and refined, would fall asleep while reading?
Li Yunle wanted to wake Chu Beiling, but looking at Chu Beiling's peaceful sleeping face leaning against the bookshelf, she suddenly felt a little reluctant.
He could only sigh helplessly and skim through the case file.
Halfway through his reading, Li Yunle finally came across the scroll containing records of powerful demons.
However, what is recorded above is different from what Chu Beiling said.
Records from the Never-Sleeping City.
After the human woman returned.
She was happily embroidering her wedding dress when the great demon suddenly sent a letter severing ties, saying he was tired of her and no longer wanted her.
The human woman was heartbroken.
Unexpectedly, other wealthy families in the City That Never Sleeps learned of this and began sending their men to follow the human woman Lei Fei, trying to find the great demon's whereabouts.
As it turned out, those wealthy people actually found an opportunity.
In other words, the ginseng demon wronged Lei Fei first, and then turned around and accused the human woman of being a treacherous and wicked woman.
Thinking about it this way, Li Yunle immediately felt no goodwill towards this great demon, and she directly threw the scroll she had read at Chu Beiling's face.
"Who?" Chu Beiling woke up groggily, about to get angry, but when he saw Li Yunle's gloomy face, he immediately cleared his throat.
I plan to continue reviewing the case files to seek remedies.
Who is it?
"Let's go take a look."
The guards patrolling outside the door heard noises coming from the library.
"Oh no, Chu Beiling, don't clear your throat next time." Li Yunle first restored all the files to their original positions, then led Chu Beiling away from the city lord's mansion.
"Feel sorry."
"Yunle, I forgot to tell you, I have a habit of falling asleep while reading." Chu Beiling said apologetically.
"Hmm, it's alright, I understand." Li Yunle tossed the neatly collected files to Chu Beiling.
"The biggest problem now is whether the account in the case files is correct, or whether the story told by the people is correct?"
"How could this be?" Chu Beiling was also surprised after reading the dossier. He did not expect that the story of the great demon recorded in the dossier was so different from the story of the great demon and the human woman Lei Fei that had been passed down.
“How would I know? How about this,” Li Yunle smiled slyly, “I actually have some connections with the King of Hell. We can go down to the underworld, see where this Miss Lei Fei was reincarnated, and then restore her past life memories so they can play chess together.”
Chu Beiling lowered his eyes.
"This method is good, but wouldn't it disrupt the rules too much?"
Li Yunle slumped his shoulders: "Chu Beiling, are you going or not? If you're not going, I'll go alone."
"My mother said that if a person wants to succeed, they can't be too bound by rules; rules are just things set by the strong for the weak."
Seeing that he couldn't reason with Chu Beiling, this old-fashioned man, Li Yun decided to go alone.
She used her magic to travel to the underworld.
After walking the road to the underworld, I met Meng Po.
"Hey, Sister Meng Po, your business is doing pretty well." Yun Le exchanged a few pleasantries with Meng Po, then took out a golden spirit pearl to bribe her and successfully went to the judge of the Samsara Palace.
But what she didn't expect was...
No sooner had he left than Chu Beiling followed him.
He wasn't as lucky as Li Yunle, and since he didn't have any spirit stones or treasures to bribe Meng Po, he was naturally stopped.
"Young man, you've got some nerve. Don't you know the underworld is off-limits to the living?"
Meng Po looked Chu Beiling up and down. Seeing that he was handsome and obviously not an ordinary person, she raised her hand and gestured: "However, if you insist on entering the underworld, there is a way."
As the saying goes, money makes the world go round.
Chu Beiling looked him up and down, then took out a money pouch and gave it to Meng Po, looking somewhat embarrassed.
These spiritual practitioners have always been incorruptible, regarding money as dirt.
Meng Po had initially assumed this young man was an important figure, but the spirit stones in his money bag were pitifully few, so she immediately threw the money bag back to Chu Beiling with disdain.
"Young master, I'm not trying to be mean, but with so few spirit stones, you can barely feed yourself, let alone come to the underworld. Hurry up and leave! With so little silver, you can't even afford a bowl of Meng Po soup."
"No, I can pay on credit, Meng Po." Chu Beiling was anxious to follow her inside.
Although he knew that Li Yunle was born into a noble family.
Both my father and mother are rulers of the realms of immortals and demons, but what if...
What if something really does happen?
What if Li Yunle has an accident in the underworld and he's not around?
Out of concern for Yunle.
Chu Beiling came up with a good idea: to seal off the human aura on his body and pretend to be a ghost to sneak into the underworld.
As a result, they encountered Meng Po giving soup to ghosts.
Chu Beiling raised his sleeve and drank the Meng Po soup, but he only held it in his mouth and did not actually drink it.
They were about to pass by Meng Po's inn.
Board the carriage to the underworld.
But at that moment, the ghosts behind him suddenly started a riot.
The ghost behind crashed directly into Chu Beiling.
Chu Beiling was completely unprepared.
He swallowed the Meng Po soup directly from his mouth.
"Oh no!" Chu Beiling immediately used his spiritual power to seal his acupoints, but it was already too late.
He could feel his memories slowly slipping away from his mind.
His eyes gradually became empty and lost.
-----
Li Yunle went to the Hall of Reincarnation to find the judge, but after a long investigation...
They discovered that there was no record of the reincarnation of the human woman named Lei Fei in the City of Eternal Night within the Samsara Palace.
In other words, Lei Fei was never reincarnated.
Li Yunle gave the judge another treasure, making the judge's old face beam with joy.
They couldn't wait for Li Yunle to come more often.
Then I'll become rich.
As Li Yunle left the Judge's Hall, he happened to pass by the Yellow Springs Ferry, where ghosts are reincarnated.
She had already passed by, but when she recalled that familiar figure among the many ghosts, the more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt.
He immediately turned around and ran back to the Yellow Springs Ferry.
Sure enough, Chu Beiling was about to jump into the River of Oblivion, where ghosts are reincarnated.
“No, Chu Beiling.” Li Yunle’s pupils contracted.
