Dingguo Gongfu.
"Show me away, I won't see you again." Xie Shu's cold voice came from inside the house, accompanied by a few low coughs.
Qing Wu stood in the yard, scratching her face. Seeing Xie Yun's hesitant expression, she felt a little embarrassed: "Um...uncle..."
"It's my subordinates who are responsible for this, not anyone else's."
After she finished speaking, she glared at the two ghosts that were skewered like mutton in the corner, snapped her fingers, and fueled the Qingming Karma Fire a little more.
The two Yama Kings strung together were none other than the King of Biancheng and the King of Chujiang from the Second Palace.
The King of Chujiang was a dark-faced man with a swollen nose and face, and a bunch of big bumps on his forehead, making him look like a fat monk.
King Biancheng was no less bad, with two lumps on the left and right sides of his head, like symmetrical horns.
"Waaaaaaah stop burning it, it's cooked! My butt is cooked!!" King Chujiang screamed in pain because of the burning.
King Biancheng was also burned, his face flushed red, and he kept twitching, not forgetting to taunt: "You can't even bear this little pain, you piece of shit!"
Prince Chujiang glared at him and saw that Prince Biancheng's fire had only reached his ankles. His forehead was enlarged with anger and he shouted at Qingwu, "I don't accept it! Your Majesty, you are partial to me! Why do you burn me with such a fierce fire?!"
Qing Wu had a blank expression on her face: "Who told you to be a meat stick?"
King Chu Jiang cried and ate wide noodles.
Xie Yun looked at this brutal hell on earth and felt a little dizzy: "Nephew, nephew's wife...how about, let's just forget it..."
There are always old ghosts harassing his son. This time, Xie Yun, as a father, is really worried and distressed, but now...
He really felt that it was not easy for these devils to make a living under the control of his nephew's wife.
"Since my uncle pleaded for them, I will spare their lives for the time being."
Qing Wu snapped her fingers, and the fire subsided. King Biancheng and King Chujiang both breathed a sigh of relief. The two ghosts smelled of burnt food. Qing Wu glared at them and said, "Get lost. Fry in the oil pan ten times before you can leave."
Prince Chujiang twitched the corner of his mouth in pain.
King Biancheng's eyes lit up: "Sister, I am willing to blow up twenty rounds, can you arrange Xie Shu for me in advance?"
King Chujiang was furious, you little bastard, you dare to cut in line!
"I can blow up a thousand circles! Your Majesty, the duties of my Second Palace and the interrogation of ghosts are perfectly matched with Xie Shaoqing's duties in the human world. You gave it to a scum like Xiaoliu, isn't that a waste of God's gift!"
"I protest, I don't accept it! You can't be partial to him just because he's sweet-mouthed and shameless and can fawn on others! This kid is a disgrace to the world. He is a sycophantic minister around the emperor. It's not too much to serve him with a dog's head beheaded!"
Qing Wu glanced at him, and Prince Chujiang's voice became lower and lower until he shut up.
Qing Wu snorted, "I gave you an order long ago not to harass Xie Shu, but you ignored my words, didn't you?"
The King of Chujiang shuddered violently, and the King of Biancheng also restrained his gloating expression and wanted to speak: "Sister..."
Qing Wu's gaze fell on him, and King Bian Cheng shrank his head and shut up.
"After Lao Liu gets out of the oil pan, he will go to the hell of knives and roll around for a while. Get out now."
The two ghosts obeyed the order obediently, and King Chujiang didn't dare to say anything now.
It has to be Your Majesty, who is so cruel even to his own ghost.
Qing Wu touched her nose and glanced at Xie Shu's tightly closed door, thinking of these two troublemakers.
"Ziyuan doesn't want to see anyone, so I'll leave first..."
With a creak, the door opened from the inside.
Xie Shu stood at the door with a pale face, staring at her coldly and solemnly: "Are you a human?"
Qing Wu straightened her back: "That's definitely not the case."
Xie Shu glanced at her and ignored her, then turned to Xie Yun: "Don't worry, father. I am fine here."
Seeing this, Xie Yun thought that the two people had something to say, so he nodded and left.
Qing Wu walked over with a smile: "Hey, Brother Ziyuan~"
Xie Shu's arms were covered with sweat and he stared at Qing Wu with a calm expression. The latter blinked, "What's wrong, Brother Ziyuan?"
After a while, Xie Shu sighed.
My headache already made it worse.
"Do you think Xiao Chenyan is broad-minded, or do you think I'm too stubborn?"
The lovely and cute little sister Qingwu from his childhood had long been "dead" in Xie Shu's eyes. Now when he heard Qingwu calling him brother, Xie Shu felt like she was asking for his death.
Qing Wu stopped teasing him and said with a smile, "If I call someone else brother, Xiao Yantai will definitely be jealous. But if I call you, I think he won't have any thoughts."
Oh, I guess there will still be some ideas.
But it was definitely not jealousy, but he was worried that she would call Xie Shu to death.
Xie Shu looked at her helplessly, and without further ado, he asked, "Has Ah Yan had any problems?"
Qing Wu was not surprised that Xie Shu could see the clues. His wisdom was not for nothing.
When she and Yantai went to Beihai County, Xiao Chenyan left behind a body, and Cangming's consciousness emerged from behind. That body was also controlled by Cangming's consciousness and directly turned into a "donkey".
The efficiency in handling government affairs is so high that the Left Prime Minister would be so happy that he would smile from ear to ear.
"Yes, that's Cang Ming." Qing Wu said briefly and didn't hide anything from Xie Shu. She waved her hand and said:
"Well, you should just stay away from Cang Ming when he shows up. He is not as humane as me. He was the one who started this bad habit of treating people like donkeys!"
Xie Shu looked at her with a reserved look.
Whether you believe it or not is written in your eyes.
After a brief pause, he suddenly said, "You seem to feel that after becoming Cangming, Ah Yan is no longer Xiao Chen Yan."
Qing Wu looked at him in surprise, "Do you think they are the same person?"
She finished speaking and frowned.
Come to think of it, it is indeed strange.
The eldest brother and Xie Shu can be said to be the two people in this mortal world who know Xiao Chenyan best, but after coming here this time, the eldest brother has mentioned before that there is something abnormal about the corpse in the palace.
However, Xie Shu discovered some clues.
Maybe the eldest brother is not as sharp as Xie Shu, but there is such a big difference between Cang Ming and Yan Tai, he should be able to see it.
unless……
Xie Shu's next words confirmed Qing Wu's guess.
"I have come into contact with the body that Ah Yan left in the palace. He is no different from the Xiao Chenyan I know."
"No difference? Then how did you feel something unusual?"
"Because I mentioned you."
Qing Wu raised her eyebrows.
Xie Shuyi recalled that time, "The look in his eyes was different."
Whenever Qing Wu was mentioned in the past, Xiao Chenyan's eyes would soften, like cold iron meeting softness, with the air of worldly affairs, and the lingering love that could not be hidden.
But the person Xie Shu saw in the palace that day was actually Cang Ming.
When Qing Wu was mentioned, the other person's eyes were as clear as a quiet lake, with occasional ripples, but those ripples were not of love and tenderness, but a kind of almost innocent wonder.
That was something Xie Shu had seen on his friend before.
It was this abnormality that made Xie Shu suspicious.
But apart from this point, Cang Ming and Xiao Chenyan did not have a clear boundary in their treatment of other people.
Xie Shu looked at Qing Wu and asked with some confusion: "I remember you once said, Xiao Wu, that after the gods descended to the mortal world to transcend the tribulation, they forgot their past lives. Therefore, they are not the same person when they transcend the tribulation and when they ascend to heaven and return, because those emotions and memories have been cut off."
"But in Ah Yan's case, he and Cang Ming are essentially the same soul, with the same emotions and memories. Are they still two 'people'?"
Xie Shu's words accidentally revealed the key.
When in Beihai County, perhaps because she was face to face with Cangming, whether it was Yeyou or Bi Xiaofang, she could intuitively feel the difference between when Cangming was with her and when Yantai was with her.
So at that time, Yeyou and Bi Xiaofang quickly noticed the clues.
But when she was not around, Cang Ming and Yan Tai were essentially the same person in the eyes of others.
Qing Wu inexplicably recalled the words that Cang Ming had repeatedly emphasized.
——Cang Ming is Xiao Chen Yan, and Xiao Chen Yan is also Cang Ming.
And her existence is the 'barrier' that distinguishes the two.
She, was definitely his disaster.
That feeling is like... because of her, there is the Xiao Chenyan and the Cangming today.
Qing Wu saw a strange thread of cause and effect, shining with golden light, different from any cause and effect she had ever seen.
The cause and effect came from the boundless void, entangled her, and the other end extended to another place.
Qing Wu knew that Cang Ming was on the other side of the thread of cause and effect.
And this thread of cause and effect seemed to have existed since she was born and opened her eyes for the first time in the underworld.
She had seen it then, but for some reason she had forgotten its existence.
When she opened her eyes for the first time, she saw a pair of eyes along this golden causal line.
She had looked into the eyes of that 'person', who was the first 'person' she saw when she was born.
That person is——Cang Ming.
