When Xie Yun and Xiao Chenyan rushed over, Anping Courtyard was already in chaos.
The old Taoist priest with long eyebrows was tied up with a big head and knelt on the ground begging for mercy. Madam Dingguo burst into tears. There was also a sharp cry of "Xie Ling" in the house. The sound was sharp and piercing, and it didn't sound like it came from a human. It sounded more like... some kind of beast.
As soon as she saw Xie Yun, Mrs. Dingguo rushed over.
"Master, you have to find a way to save Ling'er! This evil Taoist actually dared to lure a monster to possess Ling'er and pretend to save her!"
"It's all my fault, it's all my fault! I'm the one who killed our Ling'er!"
After hearing this, Xie Yun felt dizzy. He forced himself to stay calm and comfort his wife. He looked at the old Taoist priest with a murderous intent that he could hardly suppress.
"Father." Xie Shu came out of the house. As he came out, the sound of "Xie Ling" in the house stopped.
Xie Yun saw a few blood marks on the back of his hand, as if he was scratched, and couldn't help but worry: "Ziyuan, how did you get hurt?"
Madam Dingguo also hurried forward, covering her chest, "Did the spirit that possessed Ling'er hurt you?"
"It's okay." Xie Shu pulled up his sleeve to cover the wound.
Xie Ling was a little agitated, and he didn't know what the monster possessed him was. Xie Shu was afraid that his brother's body would be injured, so he was cautious when he took action and was scratched instead.
Xie Yun was also shocked and angry at this moment, and angrily scolded Mei Mei:
"You evil Taoist, why don't you expel that monster from my son's body as soon as possible!"
At this moment, there was no trace of the immortal demeanor left in Mei Mei. Although he was tied up, his eyes kept rolling around: "Master Guo, please spare my life. I, I really can't do it."
"It is said that it is easier to invite a god than to send him away. After the immortal possesses you, he won't leave until he has stayed for a sufficient period of time."
"If you force him to leave, it will harm your son's health."
Xie Yun wanted to skin this man alive, but Xiao Chenyan suddenly asked, "Where's the princess?"
Xie Yun also remembered something: "Yes, yes, where is my nephew's wife?"
Madam Dingguo was stunned for a moment, her face showing embarrassment. She thanked Shu and said, "The princess has left. To be honest, I was able to expose the true face of this evil Taoist priest thanks to the princess's reminder."
Xie Yun knew that things were not that simple when he saw this, but now was not the time to ask. He looked at Xiao Chenyan with a pleading look in his eyes: "Ah Yan."
Xiao Chenyan nodded: "I will go find her."
"I'll go with you." Xie Shu also stepped forward.
Xiao Chenyan glanced at him, nodded and said nothing.
After Xie Shu realized that there was something wrong with the old Taoist priest with eyebrows, he asked someone to invite Qing Wu, and he found out where she was now.
On the way, he met the servant who was sent out.
"Where is the princess?"
The servant looked strange, glanced at Xiao Chenyan cautiously, and said in a low voice: "Princess, please go to the ice cellar. I have just explained the situation. I would like to ask you to take a look at the young master, but, but..."
"The princess said she is busy now and has no time."
Xiao Chenyan left before listening to the end. He had just seen Mrs. Dingguo's expression and guessed the whole story.
I felt somewhat unhappy with that aunt.
Given the temperament of the female ghost in my house, since she has taken the initiative, I am willing to help.
But apparently, no one believed her.
Given her temper, it was commendable that she was willing to remind Xie Shu before leaving.
"I'm sorry." Xie Shu said carelessly, "Mother is just too concerned and confused."
"There's no need to apologize to me." Xiao Chenyan said in a cold tone: "It's not me who is misunderstood."
When they were almost at the ice cellar, they heard crying from afar.
That cry sounded strangely familiar.
When they got closer, the scene they saw made them both silent.
Xiao Chenyan's eyes were full of helplessness, but the corners of his lips were slightly upturned.
Xie Shu was stunned on the spot, a little dazed.
I saw a man with disheveled hair and a blue face from the cold tied to a tree, with only a pair of shorts on his body.
People kept pouring ice water on him.
The beautiful lady in gorgeous clothes sat lazily not far away, crossed her legs, and gave orders: "Splash~ Wash Second Uncle well, oh, who told you to splash his body and brain!"
"If you don't clean up this mess in your head, what will happen if your second uncle's brain gets messed up again tomorrow?"
Qing Wu yawned out of boredom, and seemed to be in a good mood, not at all depressed after being misunderstood.
After all, how could saving people be more enjoyable than torturing my second uncle?
Mr. Xie was tortured to death, and he felt as if he was not in his own home, but was dragged to the prison of the Ministry of Justice and was terrified.
After seeing Xiao Chenyan and Xie Shu, he burst into tears instantly.
"Ayan! Ayan, I was wrong! Please forgive your second uncle——"
"I took too much medicine before and it damaged my brain. I won't dare to say anything nonsense anymore. Please ask your princess to let me go. I'm dying. I'm really dying——"
"Xiao Shu, please save my uncle!"
When Xiao Chenyan saw Xie Xian crying, a sentence popped up in his mind:
It takes another evildoer to deal with the evildoer.
Qing Wu turned around, her eyes lit up, she picked up her skirt and ran past.
Xiao Chenyan saw her coming towards him and was about to speak when he heard...
"Little Master, are you here to look for me?"
Qing Wu smiled and stared at Xie Shu intently.
Xiao Chenyan's voice was blocked in his throat, his Adam's apple rolled, he stood beside her with his thin lips slightly pursed, his expression revealing no emotion.
Xie Shu glanced at Xiao Chenyan and nodded politely to Qing Wu. The coldness and alienation in his expression was much lighter than before.
"Thank you for your reminder, Princess. I came here to ask you if there is any way to save my brother."
"Little Master, you've come in person, so I'll give you this honor." Qing Wu tucked her hair behind her ears, smiling sweetly, looking very easy to talk to: "Little Master, lead the way."
Xie Shu breathed a sigh of relief and nodded to thank her again.
He glanced at Xiao Chenyan again and noticed something strange, but he was worried about his brother and didn't say anything.
Qing Wuqi followed the others and left without even giving Prince Yan a glance.
Baisui and the others, who had been delighted to follow Qingwu in beating up the scum, now did not dare to do anything more. They looked at each other and felt the low pressure coming towards them.
Xiao Chenyan didn't follow him immediately, but looked at his subordinates who were usually very well-behaved but now looked like they were possessed by ghosts.
"You are even braver than on the battlefield."
Everyone shrank their necks. Since the princess had appeared before them, they didn't know where they got the confidence from. They forgot where they were and got excited one by one.
When Master Xie saw Qing Wu leave, he seemed to regain his confidence and began to yell tremblingly:
"Xiao Chenyan, what the hell did you marry? She dares to be so presumptuous even though this is Dingguo's residence!"
"Hurry up and ask your men to untie me. I am not done with you and your wife!"
Xiao Chenyan stared coldly at Xie Xian, whose voice became weaker and weaker.
The man's voice was cold: "Since the princess said that she would help Master Xie clean up the dirt on his body, why are you still standing there?"
"Find a well, throw him in and wash him thoroughly."
