Bei Yutang lived alone in a quiet courtyard, served by two maids. The two maids were honored to be assigned to serve the powerful living immortal.
After knowing that he liked quietness, I stayed outside obediently and didn't dare to disturb his peace.
At this time, the two little girls had nothing to do, so they sat in the yard chatting to pass the time.
"I went outside yesterday to inquire about this Shangqing Zhenren. He is truly a god. I also heard from the doorman that he had witnessed Shangqing Zhenren's magical powers with his own eyes. They are simply unfathomable." The little girl said with a look of awe.
"The living immortal said there's an evil spirit in the young lady's yard. What do you think this evil spirit is?"
"Who knows? But I heard from the maids who followed the Living God that day that when the young lady came out, the blue flame became very different."
"You mean, the young lady is evil?" the little girl said in surprise.
"Shh, please don't say that. If the young lady and the lady hear it, it will be the end of us."
The two of them murmured in low voices.
"Of course I know that."
"The living immortals say it's an evil spirit that's prevented Madam from getting pregnant for years, and it's also hindered Master's career. It's quite a coincidence, you see, ever since Madam gave birth to the young lady, Master has remained in this position without moving, and Madam has been the same. I heard from the old maid that before the young lady was born, Master's future was bright and he was about to be promoted, but it all fell through shortly after the young lady was born."
"If the young lady is truly evil, then what can we do? Young lady, you are truly pitiful."
"Oh, you don't need to worry about this kind of thing. As long as there are living immortals, no matter what kind of monsters they are, they can all be dealt with by the living immortals. Don't worry."
"Haha, you're right."
The two little girls were chattering.
Bei Yutang in the room seemed to be meditating and chanting, but in fact he was practicing the chain technique.
While the two maids were talking, she woke up from repairing her chain and naturally heard what they said.
After spending time with Madam Xie yesterday, Bei Yutang always felt that the relationship between Madam Xie and Xie Shiming was not as cordial as outsiders said, and there seemed to be something between them.
She didn't know that yesterday, when Mr. Xie came back, he was very unhappy when he heard that an old Taoist priest had come to the mansion and said that there was an evil spirit in the mansion. He went to find Mrs. Xie to clarify the matter, but he didn't know that the development of the matter was somewhat out of his control.
"Are you crazy?!" Lord Xie looked at Mrs. Xie in disbelief after hearing what she said.
Mrs. Xie said seriously, "I think what Shangqing Zhenren said is correct."
"You suspect your daughter of being an evil spirit just because of a Taoist priest who came from nowhere, and even suspect that she is not our daughter because of his few words." Lord Xie really did not expect that she could be so foolish as to easily believe the words of outsiders and suspect her own daughter.
Seeing that he didn't believe her, Madam Xie didn't rush for his approval. Instead, she said calmly, "Husband, do you remember what Yun'er said when Ming'er was eight years old?"
Lord Xie frowned, "How could I possibly remember something that happened so long ago?"
"Yun'er, when she came to see us that day, she said, 'Ming'er doesn't look a bit like you or me.'"
