After we got married, I relied on my cheap husband to get promoted.

"He has second thoughts." Zhong Lixiu spat out a few words.

Cheng Jiuge slapped the teapot on the table and jumped up, "Scumbag! Cheating!" Cheng Jiuge glanced at Zhong Lixiu, "Is his second love your stepmother?"

Zhong Lixiu: "Yeah."

His father cheated on him and still refused to divorce. After his mother died in the beast tide, his father still married the cheating partner. He was sent to the Wuji Sword Sect alone. What a pitiful thing in this world! In Cheng Jiuge's mind, there was even a scene of a little child huddled in bed at night and calling for mother. It was so pitiful, so pitiful!

Cheng Jiuge gritted his teeth, "The last time I called him a feudal old donkey, I was too harsh. You should have told me then to see if I didn't call him such a big scumbag to death!"

"We shouldn't have gone to celebrate his birthday in the first place. What the hell, why did he still have the nerve to introduce that woman to you!"

The more Cheng Jiuge thought about it, the more irritated he felt. He looked at Zhong Lixiu and felt pity for him. He stood up and hugged him, "It's all over."

Zhongli Xiu's head was pressed on her chest:...

Cheng Jiuge added: "I think he is still in the Nascent Soul stage at such an old age. I think it's all retribution. Why didn't he help at that time? He should have died in that beast wave!" And that one? woman!

Cheng Jiuge stomped his feet angrily, Zhong Lixiu grabbed her hand and said, "It's okay."

Cheng Jiuge: "Something's wrong! I get angry when I think about your property being divided over there. I shouldn't give it to him! Or can I not give it to him?"

Zhong Lixiu: "Okay, it needs to be divided."

In fact, the properties left behind by the He family were not divided. The properties that were divided were all shared by Zhongli or Heyue. The He family was good at doing business. Although some of them were destroyed at the beginning, some of them were left for Zhongli to repair. There are many.

Cheng Jiuge: "We'll break up when we get back!"

After calming down, Cheng Jiuge realized that the two seemed to be a little closer. Zhong Lixiu held her hand, his head resting on her chest, and her hand was still on his shoulder.

Cheng Jiuge raised his hand to push him away, sat down, took out his hand to pour tea and pretended that nothing happened.

When she saw the box while drinking tea, she thought about it and said hello to it: "Hello, I am... well, your son's Taoist companion. I should call you mother-in-law."

Zhong Lixiu looked at her and then at the box, "Well, mother, I have a Taoist companion."

It was obviously a normal sentence, but Cheng Jiuge suddenly felt his face getting a little hot.

Cheng Jiuge picked up the box and gave it to Zhong Li, "Put it away quickly. The old lady said it must not be left in the sun. I wonder if she eats anything. Do you need us to burn incense for her?"

Zhong Lixiu took the box and put it away, "No need."

"That's fine. Where is your mother's tomb? If we have time, we can pay homage to her and find out whether her soul is in the ghost world or somewhere else."

Zhong Lixiu: "In the back mountain."

Cheng Jiuge: "The back mountain of Seven Swords Peak?"

"Ah."

Cheng Jiuge: "Then we will go and worship after we go back."

Then the room fell silent. It was clear that the relationship between the two was a bit cold before, but just now...

Cheng Jiuge suddenly stood up and walked to the bed and lay down, "I'm going to rest first." She lay on the innermost side, then turned her head and said, "You should also have a good rest."

Zhong Lixiu put the tea cup away and said, "Yeah." Then he walked to the bed and lay down next to Cheng Jiuge.

Cheng Jiuge immediately felt his breath, and when she turned her head, she saw him lying flat next to her. He was obviously sitting on a chair before. She thought she was tired from recalling her mother's affairs today.

Thinking of this, Cheng Jiuge secretly cursed Zhongli or a scumbag several times in her heart, and felt pity for Zhonglixiu. She picked up the quilt on one side and covered him, "Have a good rest and don't think too much." Nothing. Without thinking, Zhong Lixiu opened his eyes and looked at the quilt, then looked at her back, and finally squeezed the quilt tightly with his fingers and closed his eyes.

The sound of Cheng Jiuge's sleeping breathing soon sounded in the room. Although it was very slight, Zhong Lixiu could hear it. In the darkness, he opened his eyes, turned sideways and covered her half with the quilt. As soon as he covered her, Cheng Jiuge suddenly turned around. Come over, the two of them are facing each other.

Zhong Lixiu could feel her breath hitting his face. The quilt he held in his hands tightened, and he slowly turned back to lie flat. He fell asleep soon, but not long after, one of Cheng Jiuge's arms came to rest on his face. on his chest.

Zhong Lixiu didn't dare to move, just lying there.

Early the next morning, when Cheng Jiuge woke up, Zhong Lixiu was no longer there. When she walked out of the room, she saw Zhong Lixiu coming back from outside with a sword and bringing her breakfast.

Cheng Jiuge took it, "Thank you, have you eaten?"

Zhong Lixiu shook his head, "No."

Cheng Jiuge took a bite of a small steamed bun and said, "Oh, you don't want to eat it."

Zhong Lixiu: He thought she would say to eat together...

Because of the ghost king's incident, today everyone was divided into several teams to find out the news. Some of them went to find out the news about the nine ghost kings, and some went to find out about the ghost cannibalism incident.

Cheng Jiuge: "When I came here, I heard that you killed many ghosts. What's going on?"

Liu Jin: "What we kill are all ghosts who kill people."

"What exactly is going on? Tell me specifically?"

Tu Yongzhe: "After we arrived, we investigated the news and found that there were ghosts sucking people's spiritual energy, and there was more than one. Those ghosts saw us and wanted to suck ours, so we had to kill them all."

Cheng Jiuge: "Where is the city lord? Doesn't he care?"

Tu Yongzhe: "The city lord is not here, and this task was also entrusted to our Wuji Sword Sect by the city lord."

Cheng Jiuge: "...Have you ever caught ghosts before?"

Tu Yongzhe: "Yes, those ghosts didn't say anything. Later we thought it was the ghost king in white who did it, but now we find out that it shouldn't be the case."

Cheng Jiuge: "Forget it, let's go investigate again."

Before going out, Cheng Jiuge read all the information about ghost cannibalism that happened before. The first one happened half a year ago. A man returned home and found his wife and parents lying on the ground with ghost teeth on their necks. Not only that, his wife’s stomach was hollowed out.

Then there was a woman from Hualou who had teeth marks on her neck and her belly was hollowed out. Everything that happened next involved women, and it was all women whose stomachs were hollowed out.

Cheng Jiuge frowned, "Why are they all women?"

Zhong Lixiu: "There are also men."

Cheng Jiuge shook his head, "No, there is no single man, it's all men and women, that is, men may be affected, and the ones who are poached are all women. Why are the stomachs poached? Dantian? Men and women Is there any part of your stomach that doesn’t hurt?”

Cheng Jiuge glanced at Zhong Lixiu's belly, then looked at his own belly. Wasn't it just a pile of intestines?

Xing Yue: "Women can have children, but men can't."

Cheng Jiuge's mind flashed, "Yes, uterus! Women have uteruses! Let's ask again, are those women killed by ghosts pregnant? Or there is something different. Check it out."

In fact, the difference between men and women is not only in the uterus, but also in other organs. However, Cheng Jiuge's first impression was that he suspected pregnancy. Otherwise, why would he dig out his stomach?

"Yes." (End of chapter)
