I Killed Gods and Demons in Song Dynasty

Chapter 86 Madam Wei

Mrs. Wei!
Li Qingyun recognized her immediately. The middle-aged woman following behind Su Yue'e was Wei Xiuwen's original wife, his main wife.

The green gem she was wearing was exactly the same as the one he saw in the divination picture, even the style of the base was exactly the same.

Could it be that she is the messenger of the Wu Shi Religion?
But isn’t she a devout Tianmu believer?

It was not until this moment that Li Qingyun suddenly discovered that the voice he heard during divination, although deliberately modified, was indeed somewhat similar to Madam Wei's.

It’s just that the last time we met at Zhu’s house, she wasn’t wearing the emerald ring on her hand, otherwise I would have recognized her long ago.

But if Madam Wei was really the messenger of the Wu Shi Religion, then why would she lower herself to marry the unknown Wei Xiuwen?

Is it just to keep a low profile and hide your identity?
Thinking that such a dangerous person was lurking in the Changle Gang, Li Qingyun suddenly felt a chill rising from his spine and rushing to his forehead, as if there were a pair of invisible eyes behind him, watching and spying on him.

In just a moment of distraction, Su Yue'e had already seen Li Qingyun, and immediately walked over with a smile on her face, bowing generously:

"I meet Boss Li and pay my respects to you."

Li Qingyun suppressed his shock and said calmly:
"Hello, Madam Yun and Madam Wei."

Su Yue'e smiled sweetly, her eyes full of charm:
"What a coincidence! I was just planning to go out for a drink with Sister Liao, but I didn't expect to run into you here. Are you here on business?"

Mrs. Wei's maiden name was Liao, and her family was a wealthy family in Bianliang City.

What a coincidence, someone just died here and you guys came out to drink... Li Qingyun nodded slightly and replied calmly:
"That's right. There was a murder case at the Gaosheng Inn across the street. We came here to investigate."

He deliberately emphasized the words "Gaosheng Inn" and "murder case", and at the same time glanced at Mrs. Wei, only to see that she was not surprised at all.

Did she already know that Liu Changyou died in there?

"Oh, how unlucky! Something like this happened in broad daylight. Bianliang City is really getting more and more chaotic..."

Su Yue'e was horrified when she heard this, and she gently patted her plump chest with her bare hands to calm herself down.

Then he pulled a chair without any hesitation and sat next to Li Qingyun, "It's scary, can I sit here, boss?"

Li Qingyun was embarrassed, but worried that he would make things worse, so he could only pretend to be serious. He moved slightly away from Su Yue'e, and then introduced in a serious manner:
"This is Lieutenant Fang from Kaifeng Prefecture, and that is Lieutenant Han."

Then he introduced the two ladies to Han and Fang.

Madam Wei said calmly:

"You two lieutenants must be the officials from Kaifeng Prefecture who rescued the young master of the Zhu family the other day. I have been close friends with the Zhu family for many years. I would like to thank you two on their behalf!"

Fang Shuan shook his big head and laughed:
"These are all trivial matters, not worth mentioning. By the way, how is the child of the Zhu family doing now? I heard that he has been in a coma."

Mrs. Wei smiled slightly:
"Thank you for your concern, sir. Thanks to you, he has woken up this morning. Although he is still a little weak, he is not seriously injured."

Awake?

Li Qingyun was originally distracted, thinking about his own things, but when he heard this, he turned his head unconsciously to look at Madam Wei. Fang Shuan was also startled:
"Really? I guess the Zhu family has invited a famous doctor and magician to treat the young master, but I wonder which one they invited?"

Mrs. Wei shook her head:
"They did hire some people, but none of them were helpful. In the end, they only managed to get through the difficult times by praying sincerely and asking for the grace of the Mother of Heaven."

As she spoke, she raised her index and middle fingers, drew a circle on her chest, and said very seriously, "The Mother of Heaven is merciful and has endless grace..."

Her expression was serious, her demeanor solemn, and she looked pious.

If I didn't know that you were a messenger of the Wu Shi Religion, I would have almost believed it. You're acting so hard, aren't you afraid of getting schizophrenia... Li Qingyun complained in his heart, and suddenly remembered the couple in the Wei family who claimed to be devout believers in the Mother of Heaven. One violated the doctrine and raised an illegitimate child outside, and the other became a messenger of a cult. They were a perfect match.

As expected, if you are not from the same family, you will not enter the same door...

However, when he heard that Zhu Chengxi was safe and sound, he felt much more relieved.

This is the best outcome, which means there is no need to perform the exorcism ritual on Zhu Chengxi, which may have adverse consequences.

However, in the end, Kaifeng Prefecture will probably need to examine him again. As long as they confirm that there are no evil spirits left, everything will be fine.

As he was thinking, Madam Wei took out three beautifully embroidered sachets from her bosom and handed them to him, saying:
"The Zhu family and I have been friends for generations. You are their benefactors, and also my benefactors. This is just a small gift, not a token of respect, but I hope you will accept it."

Seeing that her words were sincere and the gifts she gave were some worthless trinkets, Fang Shuan and Han Tianjin both accepted them with a smile.

Li Qingyun originally wanted to decline, but seeing the other two were so happy to accept it, he had no choice but to accept the sachet and prepare to throw it away after returning to his residence.

A few of them chatted casually for a while, and then another group of people came on the street. They were the coroner sent by Kaifeng Prefecture.

Firstly, Li Qingyun had not figured out how to deal with Mrs. Wei, and secondly, he did not want to stay with Su Yue'e for too long, so he used this as an excuse to say goodbye and leave.

Then he spent more than an hour accompanying the coroner named Cui to examine the scene. Although he did not find any additional clues, he learned a lot.

When we returned to Kaifeng Prefecture, it was almost dusk.

Next, Li Qingyun went to Bai Yunrui as planned to report the coroner's autopsy results, and discovered that the Jade-faced Little Dharma and Lu Zhen were in a room with a strange magic circle.

Seeing Li Qingyun coming, Bai Yunrui waved at him, motioning him to move a chair and sit down, then said:

"Brother Lu spent a lot of time to figure out one thing. The spirit in this puppet is actually the corpse in Gaosheng Inn. I don't know what method he used to trap part of his soul in the puppet.

"But it's obvious that this person has a special relationship with the Wu Shi Sect. Maybe he can provide us with new clues."

Upon hearing this, Li Qingyun glanced around the room and saw that in the center of the magic circle, the strange puppet that had crawled out of Liu Changyou's exploded body was sealed on the ground by several talismans. It was motionless and lifeless, no longer as aggressive as before.

Is this the reason why Liu Changyou stuffed the puppet into his body just before he completely lost control?
Does he want to seal part of his soul in it and resurrect later?
Or, does he have other intentions?
With doubts in his heart, Li Qingyun asked:
"Since we have a part of the dead body's soul, can Fourth Brother use the psychic method to find out the truth of the matter?"
