Snake Tangled Three Dreams

Chapter 95
It's no wonder that Miss Shen threw out such a sentence as soon as we met, it really is not a good time for me to come back.

I stared at Liu Wangzhi's clear peach blossom eyes, calmly withdrew the hand he was holding, stood up straight from his embrace, and said with a smile on my lips, "Okay, that snake Jun, you and Miss Shen continue to chat, I will go to see Aunt Xu first."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Liu Wangzhi to answer, I turned around and left, but before I took two steps, Master Shen suddenly moved towards me, just blocking my way.

"Lian'er, how come you don't even care about your father when you see a handsome man?" Master Shen was wearing a mink velvet cloak prepared by the maid in advance, and two flower ghosts were waiting on his side, one on the left and the other on the right, followed by a few A maid with low brows and pleasing to the eye, she is holding the tea and washbasin she just used to serve Master Shen.

After I came up from Yin, I rubbed my arms to get rid of the cold, and then looked at the details and arrangement of others, I can only say that I am the head of the Shen family.

"There are too many people serving Daddy, so I won't come to join in the fun." Miss Shen was called by her name, and then Shi Shiran walked to Master Shen.

The two flower ghosts saluted her with downcast eyes, and retreated politely behind Master Shen to make room for Miss Shen.

"I'm not resting in the room in the middle of the night, why did you come here?" Master Shen patted the hand she was holding on his arm, and motioned for Miss Shen's maid to bring over the waistcoat she was wearing, and then put it on for her with his own hands. Come on, "Your body has been bad since childhood, but you can't stand the cold, so put on your clothes quickly."

Ms. Shen gathered her coat over her shoulders, covered her mouth with a handkerchief and coughed twice, then pouted her lips and said, "I feel sorry for you, Dad. I heard that you added a list temporarily today, so I took the time to prepare it." I ordered the warming soup, and I will take it in time after you come back, so as to get rid of the coldness in your bones. Who knows that my father thinks that I don't care about you, this really chills my daughter's heart."

After all, she is the eldest lady of the Shen family. She has been pampered since she was a child, and even her tone of voice is full of innate arrogance.

But from what Master Shen said just now, it seems that Shen Lian's body was not very good since she was a child, and it's no wonder that her face looked sickly, and she coughed while covering her mouth from time to time.

I was watching this father and daughter talking to each other, when something was pasted on my back, it was warm, and it instantly dispelled the intractable coldness in my vest.

I turned around and saw that Liu Wangzhi had asked someone for a warm handbag, and he was holding it in his hand and sticking it to my back. Seeing me looking up at him, he said calmly, "Why, it's hot?"

I was a little surprised by his sudden action, but the hand warmer was really comfortable, so I didn't deliberately veto it: "It's not hot, it's good."

"Yeah." Liu Wangzhi didn't say anything, just held up the warm handbag and warmed my back as if nothing had happened.

Aunt Xu couldn't wait to know her daughter's whereabouts. After hesitating for a while, she couldn't help but walked up to me and patted me on the shoulder: "That...Little sister Bai, where is my Wanqing?" Looking around, "Is she back, why can't I see her?"

Aunt Xu probably doesn’t understand the form of ghost walking. This spell should allow the soul to communicate with her through the body of the spirit walking person. Now, Master Shen and I are still active with our own consciousness, which can only explain one thing, That's a failure to escape.

"Aunt Xu, listen to me." I held her hand and patiently explained to her, "We went to Fengdu City this trip, but we didn't find your daughter's whereabouts."

"What, how could it be!" Aunt Xu was in a hurry, her hands were trembling, "My daughter...if she's not down there, where else can she go?"

Aunt Xu became emotional and spoke a lot louder.Master Shen finally noticed the commotion here, comforted Shen Lian, walked up to Liu Wangzhi and bent down and cupped his hands: "I'm really sorry for keeping Mr. Snake waiting for a long time. But after returning from this trip, Shen has something to report .”

Our side happened to be only halfway through the conversation, and I don't know what's going on in the Palace of the King of Hell, so it would be better for Master Shen to talk about it, so he nodded to Liu Wangzhi.

Liu Wangzhi put the warm handbag in my arms for me to hold, then turned to look at Master Shen: "What's the matter, just tell me."

Master Shen straightened up, glanced at Aunt Xu, and said to Liu Wangzhi with a guilty look: "This trip is considered to be empty, Miss Bai and I went to the Department of Rewards and Punishments and the Palace of the King of Hell, and met a few ghosts. My lord, but they all say that Xu Wanqing's soul is not in the underworld, and they can't even find a whereabouts in the book of life and death."

"Can't find whereabouts? What does this mean?" I covered my hands with a warm handbag, and my brows couldn't help but furrowed.

"Alas..." Master Shen sighed and shook his head, "Yan Wangye said that the name in the book of life and death is dim, but it still exists, so it means that Xu Wanqing's life and death are unknown."

"Ah?!" Aunt Xu's complexion changed drastically, she rushed over and grabbed Master Shen's cloak, crying uncontrollably, "You mean, my daughter's name is still in Master Yan's book of life and death? Is it not dead yet, is there still hope of being alive?!"

"This matter, Shen can't say for sure." Master Shen was torn open, and while trying to get the maid to pick it up with a wink, he said to Aunt Xu, "Shen is only responsible for cheating, and what he does is also cheating." People’s business. If it’s a living person, there’s nothing Shen can do.”

This guess is the same as what I thought when I was in the underworld, but if Xu Wanqing is not dead, it means that she must still be in this valley, maybe she has suffered some serious injuries, and is wandering between life and death.

But before, Liu Wangzhi only agreed to intercede with Master Shen, and asked him to come forward to help Aunt Xu escape, but now that the escape has been done, as for Xu Wanqing's current whereabouts, it seems that it is no longer within the scope of the agreement.

But human life is at stake, I wanted to help Aunt Xu but I was at a loss, so I had no choice but to look at Liu Wangzhi and quietly wait for his decision.

Aunt Xu couldn't beg Master Shen, so she knelt down in front of Liu Wangzhi and begged him. Liu Wangzhi looked down at the weeping Aunt Xu indifferently, and said calmly: "Get up. You are not dead yet, you cry so much!" What are you doing so early?"

Aunt Xu choked on these words, covered her mouth and gasped softly, holding back her emotions and not daring to cry anymore.

While I was speechless to Liu Wangzhi's poisonous mouth, I was speculating on the meaning of his words, and a hint of hope slowly floated in my eyes.

Liu Wangzhi's eyes didn't move, and he said calmly: "You leave a contact information, go down the mountain and go home first, maybe there will be news of your daughter in a few days."

Any fool can tell that this is Liu Wangzhi's promise to help find someone, so I quickly helped up Aunt Xu who was stunned, comforted her a few words, asked for her contact number, and asked Master Shen to send someone to take her back.

Master Shen didn't intend to let her stay overnight, so he turned his head and asked the maid to find a few servants and send them to the door of the house. He also told her to hold a few more lamps when the road down the mountain was dark at night.

Aunt Xu bowed to thank her, wiped her tears quietly, and then left with the boy in the villa.

The courtyard became quiet for a while, and Shen Lian, who was surrounded by maids, saw that she could finally interrupt, so she pushed away the maid who was holding the stove and covering her hands, walked to the side of Master Shen, and deliberately reminded: "Daddy, it's more than half an hour now. The warming soup my daughter prepared for you is almost cold."

Master Shen was a little helpless for his daughter's arrogance, smiled at Liu Juanzhi, then turned his face and said to Shen Lian in a low voice: "Tang, you send someone to take me to the room first, father still has something to discuss with Lord Snake, don't you Nonsense."

"Oh, dad." Shen Lian refused to follow her, grabbing her dad's arm and shaking it lightly, "Is there anything we can't talk about tomorrow, you know it's so late, you're not tired, the Snake Lord still needs to rest."

Looking at Shen Lian's appearance, I inexplicably remembered that Mengyue was also pestering my dad like this when she was a child, and my dad's attitude towards Mengyue was completely different from mine.

But those days have become very far away, just like Linxiu Village, so far away that they can no longer be seen.

"Are you tired?"

Holding the hand warmer, I unknowingly lost my mind, heard Liu Wangzhi's mellow wine-like voice, and suddenly looked up at him: "Ah, are you talking to me?"

Liu Wangzhi lowered his eyelashes, stretched out the back of his hand and lightly touched the hand warmer in my arms, and said calmly: "It's not hot anymore, let's go back and take a bath to rest."

This villa is located deep in the mountains, and the temperature at night is already cool, so I know that the hand warmer is no longer warm, and I am indeed cold and hungry, so I nodded without much hesitation: "Well, listen to you. "

Master Shen is very knowledgeable about current affairs this time, when he heard that we wanted to rest, he quickly turned his head and ordered the two flower ghosts to clean up the room, and then said respectfully to Liu Wangzhi: "Look, it's midnight, Mr. Snake! If you don't dislike it, why don't you just rest in the humble house for a night, what do you think?"

This Master Shen is really watching people order food, Aunt Xu has to go home in the middle of the night, Liu Wangzhi will receive a special invitation to stay in their Shen family villa.

Sure enough, you are a businessman, and you will never do anything that is not beneficial.

"En." Liu Wangzhi didn't refuse, took out the warm handbag from my arms, and handed it to the maid next to me, "Let someone prepare a bucket of mugwort water, it's best to warm some, she needs to get rid of the cold."

Master Shen raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Please don't worry, Mr. Snake, I will not forget these things all year round, so I have already sent someone to prepare."

Liu Wangzhi nodded slightly: "I'm sorry. I will take her to rest first, and I will discuss the second matter with you tomorrow."

Master Shen cupped his hands again: "Alright, both of you, please feel free, and Mr. Shen will not send you to the wing."

We followed the maid to the wing room that Master Shen had ordered Huagui to prepare, and as soon as the door was closed, I lay down on the table, my eyelids twitching from exhaustion.

Liu Wangzhi sat on a padded wooden bench, squeezed a formula with one hand, threw it out the window, then picked up the blue and white porcelain pot on the table and poured a cup of tea, without raising his eyes, he said: "Don't sleep, Go soak in the grapefruit water first."

"Wait a minute, I'll take a rest." In fact, as soon as I entered the room, I smelled that smell, like a mixture of wormwood and grapefruit leaves, and it also exudes moist water vapor.

These two things have the effect of exorcising evil spirits and warming up the body. It is miraculously considerate that Liu Wangzhi still remembered to ask Master Shen to prepare this for me.

At this time, there was a rustling sound outside the window, mixed with faint and chaotic hissing.

The voice was so familiar to me, I raised my head from my arms immediately, and saw countless snakes, big and small, slipping into the room through the cracks in the windows and doors, standing up straight around the table, and facing Liu Huangzhi. Kiss to the ground.

"Where are they?" I looked at the sudden group of snakes and blinked my eyes in a daze.

Liu Wangzhi paused while drinking tea with his eyes downcast, and said in a low voice, "How, how did the investigation go?"
