My very cool daughter-in-law
Chapter 52
Before falling into a sudden distraction, Huaihe introduced himself to Sheng Xun in more detail, and mentioned how he and Xiaoqiu met back then, and how he was transferred to Xiaoqiu.
Sheng Xun didn't know what Huaihe was thinking about during his mind-wandering period.
However, if you integrate the information you have at hand, you can guess some things almost as long as you think about it.
"I'm the one who sent you out." Sheng Xun said when Huai He's smile was slightly reduced, and it seemed that he was barely able to return to the topic.
His tone was calm but affirmative: "The words you mentioned were also said to you by me, or the 'I' in your memory."
The corners of Huaihe's mouth were still raised, in a state of being immersed in happiness and not completely breaking away, but his eyes widened for a moment, as if to be rounder than Zou He's eyes beside him.
"You remember?!" he asked in surprise and joy.
Unfortunately, Sheng Xun shook his head at him.
"I don't remember." Sheng Xun said truthfully, "Xiaoqiu remembered some things scatteredly, and he also said that the walnuts were given by me."
This is the progress of today's door-to-door exorcism with successive turning points. Sheng Xun officially mentioned the word "Xiaoqiu" for the first time, and did not use the vague "he" to refer to it.
When Huaihe heard the name, his reaction was strange for a moment.
He seemed to react for two seconds before realizing who he was talking about, and his expression was a little confused and a little strange for a while.
"Why do you call him 'Xiaoqiu'?" Huaihe asked.
Sheng Xun said: "When I first saw him, I asked him what his name was. He said he didn't remember, but he remembered the word 'Autumn'."
After briefly explaining the origin of Xiao Qiu's temporary name, Sheng Xun originally thought that Huaihe, as a person who obviously has no serious memory loss and remembers many past events, the other party would naturally correct his name for Xiao Qiu and tell him that Xiao Qiu was born. former real name.
But Sheng Xun's eyes fell on Huaihe for a while, and what he saw was that the strangeness and confusion had indeed subsided on Huaihe's face.
Instead, what appeared on the young man's face was thoughtfulness.
After a while, Huai He spoke again, and he said, "That's fine."
"Alright?" Sheng Xun frowned unconsciously.
Huaihe understood that his words were ambiguous, so he immediately waved his hands and said, "I'm not saying that he doesn't remember anything, I just want to say..." The words got stuck here, and his eyes swept over Sheng Xun, "... …I want to say that if you can give him a new name and be recognized and accepted by him, amnesia is like a new beginning, and it’s not completely bad.”
That sudden pause made people concerned, but Huaihe's subsequent explanation was not unreasonable.
Sheng Xun had an unreasonable intuition that Huaihe had concealed some information in this passage, but before he could ask, Huaihe blinked quickly under his gaze, but changed the subject quickly.
"We don't have much time left today." Huaihe told Sheng Xun after glancing at the clock.
He said, because today he and Zou He spent a lot of effort to invite Sheng Xun to come, using the reason of inviting golden light body protectors to come to exorcise evil spirits from the town house, and this entrustment is not too difficult in the entire mystic arts industry. high.The Mystic Master industry has an estimated processing time for commissions with different levels.
The earlier the entrusted person completes the entrustment within the estimated time, the stronger the strength exceeds the entrusting party's expectations.
Next time, the entrustment that this person can accept will be automatically upgraded by one level.
"You can't contact me directly, but you want my ability to be more widely known?"
Sheng Xun understood the meaning behind Huaihe's words as soon as he heard it, but he didn't quite understand the logic.
This also brings up another question -
Why did Huai He fit him and Xiao Qiu's old acquaintance, and he didn't lose his memory, but it took so much effort to even meet him?
What made the other party say before that he couldn't have direct contact with him?
And, Huaihe, a walnut that was said to have been given away by him and has been with Xiaoqiu for a long time, why is he with Zou He now... and it seems that he has developed an intimate relationship with others?
"I know you have a lot of questions." Huaihe also picked up a teacup in his hand, the tea that was still steaming quickly turned cold in his hand, and a thin layer of low-temperature water vapor quickly formed on the wall of the cup .
He touched the water vapor with his fingertips and rubbed the cup wall: "Whoever stands in your current position will definitely have endless questions. If I can, I would like to tell you everything I know, but I have limited time today." Under the circumstances, let me focus on the key points first, okay?"
In addition to not being sure whether Sheng Xun was the person he was looking for at the beginning, and boldly trying to "catch Sheng Xun off guard", ever since he was sure that Sheng Xun was the person he was looking for, Huaihe always talked to him unconsciously He lowered his posture.
Sheng Xun was neither used to nor accustomed to this subtle change.
He silently nodded, signaling Huai Heda to continue talking.
Huaihe was quiet for a moment, he continued to rub the teacup with his fingers, as if he had collected his thoughts, and then said: "I can't contact you directly because there are other people who know me and Xiao... sorry, this title I really don't like it, I'd better call him the young master—there are other people who know the connection between me and the young master. They want to find the young master, but because the young master's trace is hard to find, they retreat and search for me. You want to use me as a springboard to confirm where the young master is."
"This is something I have tried my best to avoid for so many years, and it is also the reason why I will never take the initiative to find the young master, and even go to great lengths to meet you—these people have had a fierce conflict with the young master, and they want to find He, the purpose is to harm him."
"In fact, I have been secretly observing you and the young master through contact for a long time... I'm sorry, I know it's a bit strange to say it, it seems like a voyeur, but please believe me, I secretly observed, just want to see the young master's recent situation , Let’s see if I really found you.”
"To be honest, before I saw you in person this time, I was almost [-]% or [-]% convinced that I might have found it. It's like a miracle that you two can meet again smoothly even when neither of you remembers the other. I have thought about it. It's good to keep the current state, you don't remember anything, but you can live together naturally."
"...But the situation has changed a little bit."
"It's not just those people who are observing me. I'm a weapon spirit. As long as the body is hidden, the soul can sneak into various places unscrupulously. Over the years, I have kept a distance that is not close but not far from them. It is also included in my snooping range, and I am also tracking them backwards."
"Although my tracking will not go deep into the interior, I am not strong and not so adventurous, but the information I got from the superficial level is enough for me to know that they are starting to worry."
Huaihe said a lot in one breath.
Hearing this, Sheng Xun finally asked, "Worry?"
"That's right." Huaihe put down the cup in his hand, and he looked at Sheng Xun with a cold face, "They haven't been able to find any sign of the young master for a long time, and even the pursuers have changed one after another, gradually Yes, some people over there have begun to think that this kind of search is meaningless, and they also think that the grievances of the previous generation should have ended long ago, and the new generation should not continue to work hard... Anyway, in short, those who can be called veterans People are in a hurry."
"So, they're picking up tricks they failed decades ago."
"What kind of trick?"
It was not Sheng Xun who asked this question, but Zou He who had also been listening for a long time.
This made Sheng Xun take his eyes off Huaihe for a short while, and gave him a surprised look.
Because in Sheng Xun's view, since Zou He and Huaihe have a more intimate relationship than "partners", and the two seem to trust each other quite a bit, then the other party should be fully aware of what Huaihe is doing and planning.
But at this moment, the observers were as focused as he was, and showed the same confusion in the details.
"Skeletons." Huaihe said, "They have the young master's body in their hands, and they are retrying the invitation that used the body as a medium that failed decades ago."
Sheng Xun's expression froze.
He is still processing the message that Huaihe said "the other party has Xiaoqiu's body in his hand".
Immediately afterwards, Huai He's eyes went straight to him.
The other party said again: "At the same time, I also heard rumors that they are still extensively collecting materials and recruiting capable people. They want to find a way to clean up the evil spirits directly through the bones even if the summoning fails."
And that's why Huaihe wants to pull Zou He to act in a play, and also hopes that Sheng Xun can rely on this entrustment to do a career upgrade.
Instead of being in a passive position that doesn't know anything, waiting for others to raise the threatening knife switch to the top of the head step by step.
It is better to switch from passive to active.
"My young master and I are ghosts and monsters that have impressed their elders deeply." Huaihe said softly, "But you are different. Your golden light is born pure and upright, and you are not allowed to get close to you unless we take the initiative to expose it. Otherwise, no knowledgeable person would believe that a person like you would come into contact with evil spirits, and still coexist peacefully with ghosts every day."
"Why do they have Xiaoqiu's body?" Sheng Xun asked, "You have been talking about 'they' for so long, who are they, and who are you reminding me to be wary of?"
Before answering this question, Huai He glanced at Zou He first.
Zou He has a complicated expression.
Realizing that Huaihe was looking at him, he pursed his lips for a moment, and then quickly let go: "What are you looking at me for? If I have something to say, do I still mind?"
Sheng Xun suddenly had an answer in his heart.
Huai He looked away from Zou He, and when he spoke again, he did give a very similar answer.
"Have you ever asked Chu Shi, which family is the 'family' that the Chu family is helping?" Huai He's sentence was a question, but Sheng Xun did not need to reply.
He went on talking on his own, and told Sheng Xun directly: "All the Chu family should have the surname Chi, but because of a family dispute many years ago, the Chu surname has now left."
"Because the elders of the Chi family have been impatient in recent years and took the initiative to seek help. Some people become more stubborn and stubborn the more they live, but some people become soft-hearted the more they live, and they tend to miss the past when they get old."
"Several elders of the Chu family responded to the request. Regardless of whether the Chu family knew the true purpose of the Chi family or not, and whether the elders had the same purpose, anyway, the current behavior of the Chu family is contributing to the Chi family's 'Hundred Years of Suppressing Evil' ceremony." .”
The author has something to say: Sheng Xun: use the most righteous light to find the most wicked wife.
Sheng Xun didn't know what Huaihe was thinking about during his mind-wandering period.
However, if you integrate the information you have at hand, you can guess some things almost as long as you think about it.
"I'm the one who sent you out." Sheng Xun said when Huai He's smile was slightly reduced, and it seemed that he was barely able to return to the topic.
