Lu Wenqian glanced at Qu Yunchu with a sullen face, silently took a bow from the boy's hand, pulled the bow to full strength, and shot towards the white shadow against the strong wind that was howling everywhere.

But Xitong's paper crane was already beyond the range of the bow and arrow. The arrow feathers swayed around the white shadow, and then disappeared into the darkness along with the cranes.

After a while, the sky gradually became clear again, and nothing could be seen in the cloudless sky.

"This……"

Everyone was shocked for a while.

"Second Aunt, why did you let him go?"

Lu Yanchao was furious: "Don't you know it was this monster that killed my mother?"

"Eldest nephew, you should know who your mother was harmed by, why bother pretending to be confused."

Qu Yunchu reminded in a cold voice.

Without the help of Mrs. Hua and Yan Song, how could Xitong find her mother's residence.

Furthermore, even without Xitong, her mother would be dead sooner or later.

Lu Yanchao now completely blamed Xitong for his hatred. He angrily pulled out a sword from the boy's hand and pointed it directly at Qu Yunchu's neck.

"Second Aunt, don't use forceful excuses. That monster is a wanted criminal. It would be a capital offense for you to let the imperial prisoner go without permission."

"The imperial court wants to offend? What court wants to offend?"

Qu Yunchu smiled lightly and said, "Which of your eyes saw me letting go of the imperial criminal?"

Anyway, no one really saw Xitong. She pretended to be calm and continued: "I'm in a good mood today. What's wrong with letting a group of white cranes fly to cheer me up so early in the morning?"

Lu Yanchao was so angry that he turned over and picked up Keyan who had just woken up.

"Tell me, who did you see in the courtyard just now?"

Lu Yanchao glared angrily and turned his sword to point at Keyan.

But Yan saw that the momentum was not right, and shook his head tremblingly: "Slave... I didn't see anyone. It got dark as soon as I entered the yard, and I passed out after that."

"A bunch of nonsense."

Lu Yanchao brought his sword closer: "If you don't tell the truth, I will kill you with one knife."

"Yan Chao, I'm still here."

Lu Wenqian sneered coldly.

Although he was very angry about what happened to Lu Shen today, he couldn't bear to see someone threatening their master and servant with a sword under his nose.

"Second Uncle, you also saw it with your own eyes. Just when we arrived here, the sky changed drastically. If it wasn't that Second Aunt was causing trouble, it was something else."

Lu Yanchao glared at Qu Yunchu with a sinister look.

"You do think highly of her."

Lu Wenqian kept sneering: "Even if your second aunt knows some heretical skills, she still won't be able to control the wind and rain and change the weather."

He had a hunch that there was a very powerful force behind this and was helping Xitong's evil thing.

Lu Yanchao looked slightly startled.

The second uncle's words reminded him that the second aunt was only a mortal being, so how could she have such great power.

When the sky says it's dark, it's black, when it's white, it's white.

If she really reached such a level, the entire Lu family would not be able to be manipulated by her at will.

"It's all my fault for being impatient and wrongly blaming Second Aunt."

Lu Yanchao hasn't thought of a way to get rid of Lu Wenqian yet, so he naturally has to show some respect to him on the surface.

So I don't dare to neglect my aunt.He retracted his sword and respectfully clasped his fists towards Qu Yunchu: "My nephew was reckless for a moment, please don't blame my second aunt."

Qu Yunchu was a little uncomfortable with how respectful and humble he was today.

Not like his style at all.

Mrs. Hua is still staying in Yanyang City. As usual, she may have to walk sideways.

Abnormally there must be demons.

Could it be that this eldest nephew is also imitating his second uncle, keeping a low profile on the surface, but secretly trying to use some tricks?
Well, these two uncles and nephews are indeed dealing with the eunuchs and old ladies in the palace all day long, and each one is more sinister than the other.

Fortunately, Lu Wenqian's crazy ghost king has not awakened his consciousness for the time being, so he will not pose a threat to himself.

He had to take advantage of this period of time to get rid of the remnants of Sunset City with his own hands.

Thinking that Master Niubi was still working hard to save Buddhism, Qu Yunchu thought about it for a moment and suddenly had an idea.

"Evil spirits have become more and more rampant recently. I am afraid it is because the temple gate was destroyed and the Xuanmen was unable to support itself."

Qu Yunchu pretended to be serious and said: "Although Buddhism and Taoism have had their own opinions for thousands of years, their intention to save all sentient beings is the same. There is an old saying that Buddhism is boundless, precisely because it is protected by Buddhism. , only then are all things in this world restrained. Although they advocate escaping from the world, they chant sutras and worship Buddha every day to save the souls of the dead. Invisibly, they are also stabilizing the king's country and the country, so that the people of Li will not be disturbed by outsiders."

After hearing this, Lu Wenqian and Lu Yanchao fell into deep thought.

Lu Yanchao felt deeply when he thought that most of the recent injustices in the family were caused by the demotion of Buddhism.

"I will report this matter to the Holy Empress, and also ask my second uncle to report the recent events in Tanzhou Mansion to the eunuch. When the time comes, the eunuch and the Holy Empress will forward it to His Majesty, and His Majesty will make his own decision. "

Lu Yanchao said quite seriously.

Lu Wenqian now only wants to capture Xitong. After seeing what happened today, he only thought that there was a terrifying evil force hiding behind Xitong, so he immediately ordered Ji Zhen:
"Publish a reward notice and ask all monks and Taoists in the world to come to Yanyang City and work together to encircle and capture the evil spirit."

Lu Yanchao also echoed: "I am willing to increase the reward by [-] gold, and there will be a generous reward for those who can catch the evil spirit."

The uncle and nephew reached a rare agreement and began to order their men to launch a larger round-up operation.

The goal was finally achieved, and Qu Yunchu couldn't help but feel a burst of joy in his heart.

If something goes wrong, Lu Wenqian still has to be sent away.

She glanced at Lu Wenqian calmly, and said with a faint smile: "The official's legs and feet are not flexible, so he mostly rests at home, and should not go out and bump around. Now that the Lu family has an eldest nephew in charge, you should feel at ease. "

Lu Wenqian glanced at her angrily and almost stood up to carry her back to the house.

The two of them looked at each other silently, looking at her proud and arrogant face. The anger in Lu Wenqian's heart surged up wave after wave, but it was hard to get angry in front of Lu Yanchao.

"What the madam said is true, I took note of it."

Lu Wenqian replied with a smile.

Anyway, sooner or later he was going to catch Xitong in front of her and skin him with his own hands.

Lu Yanchao now wishes that his second uncle could stay in Fengyage all day and interfere less with the affairs of the house.

In this way, he can act alone.

Although she didn’t know whether the second aunt really cared about the second uncle or had a deeper meaning, she quickly agreed: “Second uncle has worked hard for my Lu family these years and worked hard to take care of it. Now that he is sick, it is time to rest and rest until his legs and feet recover. It’s great to be back in charge of the family business.”

Seeing the two singing harmoniously, Lu Wenqian had no choice but to endure the bad breath, and said with a faint smile: "In that case, madam, please accompany me back home early. I feel that the days without you, even for a minute and a second, will be unbearable." It’s just living like a year.”

puff!
Listening to these words, Qu Yunchu felt like vomiting.

This crazy guy is really addicted to acting.

He treated his leg problem and was trapped in Fengyage for more than a month. He finally came out to stretch his muscles and bones. Looking at his mother, he actually thought about taking him back and becoming a caged bird with her.

This intention is too sinister.

They really want to hurt each other. (End of chapter)
