Because Pei Qing pinned Tang Xi to death and refused to let go, Tang Xi had no choice but to beat his grandson in front of his grandfather—well, although it looked like his grandson was beating his girl.
After finally getting people into the room, Mr. Pei sent away the reluctant mother and daughter Pei Yuan. Tang Xi immediately cast a counter-curse on herself and canceled the soul-changing in advance.
After a slight dizziness, her consciousness had already woken up in her body. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw the foolish figure hanging on Pei Qingzhi's body. Seeing that Pei Qingzhi was a sick person, he casually grabbed the shirt on his chest and pulled him back.
"Boom!" Pei Qingzhi was tall and slender, he was dragged by her, lost his balance, rushed forward, and hit the edge of the table heavily with his forehead.
Tang Xi: ...
I didn't mean it!
Pei Qingzhi hugged her arm, tears streaming down his face, his lips moved, and suddenly he uttered two clear words: "Xixi."
"What?" Tang Xi was stunned.
"Xixi, it's very warm." Pei Qingzhi blinked her eyes, leaned her cheek, and gently rubbed her neck.
"!!!" Tang Xi frowned instantly.
This action looked harmonious and cute when the soul was swapped, but now... this is an idiot! It's harassment!
However, before she could make a move, Pei Qingzhi's body suddenly left the ground, as if being grabbed by an invisible big hand, tore it off her body, threw it on the bed, and then the quilt flew over as if alive, Wrap him into a silkworm chrysalis.
Mr. Pei felt it was an eye-opener.
In fact, he didn't see anything other than a ball of light. It's quite miraculous to change the soul, but it seems that there is no process, and the change is simple. But now this is a real superpower!
Tang Xi laughed dryly, glanced at Yun Qi who was holding his arms in the air and was covered in black air, and just wanted to say, no, this is really not me!
"I'm sorry, Xiao Tang, to trouble you." Mr. Pei motioned for her to sit down too, poured a cup of tea for her, and said helplessly, "Pei Yuan suffered too much back then, and she really wronged her , I can't help being partial to her. But, this person, how did he become like this? He is obviously a hardworking and down-to-earth good boy, but now he has even taught his own son and daughter to be like this."
"It's just Sheng Mi En, fighting Mi Qiu." Tang Xi disagreed.
Pei Yuan has indeed paid a lot for the Pei family, but after the Pei family re-developed, because of this guilt, they gave her more. Which married woman keeps saying "our Pei family" like her, and her husband does his duty, but he doesn't want it. Is it face-saving? However, thinking of Pei Yuan's misery in the book because she wanted to snatch the family property from Pei Qingzhi, she was no better than the original owner of her shell, so she didn't bother to care about it.
Also, Li Qingxue has been secretly in love with Han Zhen for many years. Of course, how can she win if she competes with the female lead for the male lead? However, among the many rivals in love of Tang Jing in the original book, Li Qingxue can be regarded as having a high combat effectiveness, and it is quite good to keep her.
Tang Xi thought, why should she help Tang Jing solve Han Zhen's rotten love? When they fight, they don't have to trouble themselves.
Therefore, she just said a few words of comfort, and turned the page.
"You're right. I'm getting old. I can't leave this trouble to Qingzhi." Mr. Pei sighed again.
Tang Xi wanted to know from Pei Qingzhi's face that he was a cruel and merciless person. It's okay for you old man to solve it by himself, but if you leave it to Pei Qingzhi... your daughter doesn't know how miserable it will be, see the original work. However, she didn't say anything, but said sternly, "However, old man, when Boss Pei wakes up, you have to remind him to be careful of that Manager Liu."
"What?" Mr. Pei's face suddenly became serious.
"When the meeting was adjourned today, I saw Manager Liu walk away with Pei's translator and MK's translator and said a few words." Tang Xi said thoughtfully, "Although I didn't hear what they said clearly, the translator and their representative I heard what I said, just a few words, such as apologizing, and what he will be responsible for at the Tang family."
Mr. Pei's gaze suddenly became a little subtle.
"Maybe it's because the translator isn't here, and the German guy thinks we don't understand?" Tang Xi shrugged.
"Xiao Tang is very good, he can understand two foreign languages at such a young age." Mr. Pei praised, nodded and said, "Thank you, I will ask someone to investigate this matter immediately, if anyone dares to pick up the inside and outside..."
For a moment, the aura exuded from the old man made people feel that this is a veteran who has spent most of his life ups and downs in the business world, not an old man who raises flowers and walks birds.
"If it's okay, I'll go first." Tang Xi glanced at Pei Qingzhi on the bed who had broken free from the quilt, got up quickly, and said in a hurry, "Boss Pei's condition is much better than I expected. Will wake up, but it didn't take a day, it must be two days before I regain consciousness, I will come back when I recover."
"Xiao Tang, don't leave in a hurry, you haven't been paid yet." Mr. Pei hurriedly said.
"No hurry." Tang Xi smiled, "What about the reward? We can talk about it after Mr. Pei regains consciousness. Am I still worried that the old man will renege on his debt?"
Mr. Pei had no choice but to see her running away as if in a desperate situation, and then turned to look at his dazed grandson, muttering with hatred on his face: "Tell you, grandpa likes this one, and I like it from the way you look, hurry up." Go after him, do you know? If you can catch up, grandpa will die in peace. If you can't catch up... Well, it seems that there is no way, you deserve it because you can't marry such a good wife."
The old man sat in front of the bed and chattered nonstop, but Pei Qingzhi ignored him, just looked around, as if he had a hint of disappointment on his face because he didn't see that familiar figure.
Back home, Tang Xi still failed to appease Big Boss Yunqi.
"Hey, I just hugged a few times, be more lenient to the patient." Tang Xi also gave up, there are still a lot of simulation papers lying on the desk to be brushed, and it will take another two days to go to Qingxi Gorge tomorrow... She doesn't even want to Look at Yu Mingfan's face.
"Don't you think you've been too tolerant of Pei Qingzhi?" Yun Qi floated over.
"Is there?" Tang Xi thought for a while, scratched his chin, and muttered, "That's right, you can't see this kind of thing, right?"
"What?" Yun Qi was puzzled.
"Pei Qingzhi has merit. It was only through his body that I felt it." Tang Xi explained, "Although it is very light, I am surprised to see a trace of merit in today's materialistic world. Well, he is a good man, and even the ancestors of the Pei family were good men who built bridges and paved roads for the last ten generations, so only a sliver of merit protected him. Otherwise, with his damaged soul, even if he returned to his throne, he would not be able to wake up in half a day come over."
"What does it matter to you that he is a good person?" Yun Qi was still angry, "There are so many good people in this world, you have to save them?"
"If it's a little effort, it's okay." Tang Xi thought about it seriously before nodding, "It's better to have one more good person than one more bad person in this world."
"You!" Yun Qi gasped.
"Okay, I still have a lot of test papers to do, how can I save people every day when I'm free." Tang Xi comforted, "And Pei Qingzhi may not have a good impression of me, he just spent more time with me when he was a soul. For a long time, and the soul is the most direct perception of the outside world. So when he is unconscious, he will instinctively rely on me. When he regains consciousness, it’s fine if he doesn’t remember, if he remembers... I’m afraid it will cut the heart of a woman who sees him making a fool of himself Both."
"He dares." Yun Qi snorted coldly, and said again, "And those two women from the Pei family, are you really going to let them go like this?"
"They? I don't need to take care of them, the old man will deal with them himself." Tang Xi said.
"Are you sure?" Yun Qi doubted, "You said that you will not pursue it. Will old man Pei go after his daughter and granddaughter?"
"If I'm aggressive today, the old man will feel guilty about 30% of the time. After all, he is his own daughter. How can he not feel uncomfortable when he is forced to deal with it?" Tang Xi rubbed his brows and explained seriously, "On the contrary, I express my generosity. If you pursue it, the old man's guilt immediately changed from eight points to twelve points. Do you understand the reciprocity and reciprocity? Do you think it's okay if I say it's okay? But I give him a step to save face, and I am willing to take the initiative to deal with and be punished. It's completely different for people to force you to do things. Just watch, there will be news in two or three days."
"I don't understand." Yun Qi shook his head without thinking, "Why are you humans so troublesome? There are several meanings behind every sentence, so why are you so thoughtful?"
"Yunqi..." Tang Xi said faintly, "You used to be a human being. But... with your temper, it's no wonder that you will be plotted to death and sealed for thousands of years. You should stop thinking too much about intrigue in the future. it is good."
"..." Yun Qi stared at her for a while, then disappeared in a flash.
"Hey, are you angry again? Forget it, I'm going to do the questions quickly!" Tang Xi shook her head and opened the first test paper.
Yun Qi glanced at her, and went straight through the closed door.
Just as Tang Xi set up the test papers and acting papers, a red shadow flashed in front of her eyes, and Su Huang floated out of the notebook, but did not disturb her, and also floated out.
She doesn't care about them either.
The ghosts she raises can't hurt people, and normal people can't see them. Because of the contract, they can't be too far away from her, and they don't need to be controlled at all.
"Ding Dong~" The screen of the mobile phone on the table lit up, and there was a WeChat message.
Tang Xi swiped away, and saw that Cheng Yihang had pulled her into a small group of four people. After a while, several messages had been posted in the group.
Qi Sihui was asking if he needed to bring barbecue materials, Cheng Yihang replied that everything was available in the camping area, Shi Rui was yelling that the camera was too heavy, why not just bring a drone for aerial photography, and Cheng Yihang beat him to pieces.
Tang Xi smiled, posted a few laughing emojis in the group, and closed the group.
A private message came in.
Cheng Yihang: I will pick you up at 8:00 tomorrow morning.
Tang Xi thought for a while, and replied, "I'm running in the morning, you go directly to Sihui's house to pick us up", and then completely turned off the phone.
Yu Mingfan stared at her quietly from behind, making her hairy all over, and finally threw the whole phone into the drawer, and the death gaze behind her was restrained.
After she settled down to brush up the questions, the surrounding environment no longer affected her.
Aunt Zhang brought a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice upstairs, put it down silently, and bowed solemnly.
Yu Mingfan wanted to speak, but Aunt Zhang shook her head and quietly backed out.
As a ghost, there are no tears, but you can still feel sadness and joy, probably because you still have a human heart.
The next morning, Tang Xi got up on time and pressed the alarm clock half a minute before it rang.
Because she had to climb mountains and wade through water, and possibly fight ghosts, she chose loose and comfortable clothes. A black t-shirt embroidered with daisies, paired with dark blue jeans, a pair of sneakers, a simple ponytail, and a baseball cap to shade the sun.
The backpack is also very simple, water cups, paper towels, room card charger, travel size skin care products, and a set of replacement clothes. Because I will spend the night in the mountains at night, I brought an extra thin coat.
So much so that Qi Sihui almost didn't dare to recognize her when she saw her.
After Qi Sihui took off the pair of black-rimmed glasses, she was actually quite handsome, but the little girl was carrying a bag that looked a bit bulky, which made her look a little pitiful.
"It's okay, I'll help you if you can't carry it on your back." Tang Xi looked calm.
"I don't need you, aren't there boys here?" A laughing voice came from behind.
"Just you?" Tang Xi looked suspiciously at his small body.
"He." Cheng Yihang pushed Shi Rui out without thinking.
"..." Shi Rui rolled his eyes at him, annoyed, "You are really a buddy."
"You call it your best friend." Cheng Yihang replied.
"Okay, okay, get in the car and leave!" Tang Xi interrupted with a smile.
However, although Shi Rui had a stinky face, he still rudely "snatched" Qi Sihui's bag, weighed it, "It's so heavy, is it so troublesome for girls to go out?"
"It's not a rough guy like you." Qi Sihui said in a low voice.
Shi Rui opened his eyes wide and was speechless, with a shocked expression on his face. Why did Qi Sihui, who could scare people into tears by speaking loudly to her, dared to scold him? Wasn't he still afraid of him just last week like a mouse seeing a cat!
"Get out, or I'll throw you here." Cheng Yihang kicked him.
Because none of the children were old enough to take the driver's license test, the driver of the Cheng family was still driving. Instead of the usual car to pick up and drop off from school, the car was replaced by a business suv, which was spacious enough for four people to sit in the back.
"Two hours on the road, are you just in a daze?" Shi Rui asked.
"I brought it!" Qi Sihui excitedly took out two decks of playing cards from her bag.
"You are really well prepared." Shi Rui didn't know whether to praise or ridicule.
"It's good to have fun. Cheng Yihang beckoned, beckoning him to help, adjusted the two rows of chairs to face each other, and pressed the switch again, a coffee table rose up, and the back seat suddenly became a small living room.
"I won't." Tang Xi raised her hand.
"It doesn't matter, we don't play complicated ones, just play the simplest blackjack, just memorize the rules." Cheng Yihang began to shuffle the cards while explaining the rules to her.
Tang Xi thought about it, it seemed to be quite simple, at least simpler than mobile games
After playing two or three games, seeing that everyone was familiar with it, Cheng Yihang reshuffled the cards and said, "Just playing cards is boring, let's add a lottery. Of course, the money is fine, and the person who loses the most will be responsible for roasting all of us at night." How about the barbecue to eat?"
"Not good!" Tang Xi objected.
"Why, afraid of losing?" Shi Rui looked at her provocatively.
No matter what, we must bring back the scene of the haunted house, otherwise life will be impossible!
"In case he loses—" Tang Xi pointed at Shi Rui with one finger, fearing that others would not know who she was talking about, plausibly said, "Can he eat barbecue? I don't want to have diarrhea!"
Cheng Yihang was also taken aback, and looked at Shi Rui suspiciously.
"What are you looking at! Of course I will!" Shi Rui roared angrily.
"Then the two people who lose the most will be responsible for the barbecue. We should know how to do it." Cheng Yihang ignored him and changed the conditions directly.
"Okay." Tang Xi reluctantly agreed.
Shi Rui... Shi Rui's opinion was ignored.
half an hour later—
"Fuck! How lucky are you!"
after an hour-
"Did you cheat? Huh?"
an hour and a half later—
"Cheating! You definitely cheated!"
Tang Xi looked at him innocently.
Shi Rui almost died of anger, this woman is no longer lucky! A hand of 12 points is not a card, and the next player wants it, and a card of 10 points is immediately busted. Another one at 20 o'clock, and sure enough, one at 1 o'clock. Who would believe that she didn't play by looking at the cards
"The cards belong to Sihui. You are the one who shuffles, cuts and deals the cards. How can I cheat?" Tang Xi asked back.
"How can a normal person be so accurate every time!" Shi Rui didn't believe it.
"Hmm... a woman's sixth sense?" Tang Xi tilted her head, looking serious.
"Fuck you." Shi Rui laughed and cursed, and directly folded his cards.
"It's almost time to enter the mountain." Cheng Yihang looked at the scenery outside the window and said.
After collecting the poker cards, Shi Rui was the only one who lost. The three of them more or less all won, and Tang Xi was the biggest winner.
"Let me help him." Qi Sihui, who won the least, said.
"I eat Sihui's roast, you two boys go together." Tang Xi immediately hugged Qi Sihui's arm tightly.
"Who cares to bake it for you!" Shi Rui glared at her.
Tang Xi gave Cheng Yihang a sympathetic look, the meaning of which was self-evident.
"Well, how old are you all?" Cheng Yihang couldn't laugh or cry. At that time, I saw Tang Xi doing it in the private hospital in Linjiang, it was really rusty and cold, but after getting along for a long time, I found that apart from her identity as a celestial master and her magical ability, she was actually just a girl of the same age.
"Let me check the itinerary..." He took out his phone and unlocked it, but he was stunned just after taking a look.
"What's wrong?" Tang Xi asked casually.
"Tang Xi, is this... you?" Cheng Yihang showed her the phone screen hesitantly.
Tang Xi looked up, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
Sure enough, the scene on the street yesterday was photographed. The official news hot search was immediately taken down by Mr. Pei, without any splash, but it was inevitable that some pictures taken by ordinary people spread. Although she covered her face, people who are not very familiar with her would not be able to recognize her, but the news of "Pei Qingzhi, who woke up from a car accident, escorted a girl to leave in the street" was already explosive enough!
"It's Xixi? No way?" Qi Sihui also came over, but she was not sure after watching for a long time.
"Of course not me." Tang Xi retorted calmly.
Cheng Yihang could recognize her because he knew that she and Pei Qingzhi intersected, but other people would not think about it at all. A girl of this age is still wearing a school uniform that is too fat to show her figure. At most, she knows that she is a girl from a high school. Can anyone identify who this is.
"I read it wrong, I just think it looks a bit like it." Cheng Yihang cut off the screen knowingly, as if it never happened.
The car entered the scenic spot, because it was the eleventh day holiday and the crowds were dense, there were no vacancies in the parking lot for a long time.
Several people got out of the car and took their bags. Cheng Yihang simply asked the driver to go back and pick them up tomorrow.
"There are so many people." Qi Sihui sighed.
"It's okay, we don't take the road of public sightseeing." Cheng Yihang said, leading them not to the gate of the scenic spot, but to another small locked gate, explaining, "This is to prepare for the second phase The developed scenic spot has basically been completed, and I just took you through it to see the effect."
Tang Xi understood that the only thing missing from the so-called "basic completion" was the female corpse that could not be found in the lake.
Sure enough, there were no other tourists on this road, only green mountains and green waters, no need to crowd people, only occasional noises from a distance could be heard.
"This will be a rafting project in the future." Cheng Yihang pointed to the stream on the side, "This is a tributary of Qingxi, but the current is more rapid, suitable for rafting."
There was a professional tour guide, and the two girls listened with gusto. Shi Rui was the only one who was left behind, with a big bag in each hand and a bitter expression on his face.
Compared with the main road taken by large groups of tourists, this road has beautiful scenery but is more rugged. It is more suitable for young couples or small groups to travel, at least not suitable for elderly groups and children. If you want to wait until the new route opens, it will only serve as a diversion effect.
After climbing the winding mountain road for a long time, I found a clean big rock to sit down and eat at noon.
Qi Sihui brought all kinds of lo-mei snacks in her bag, and Cheng Yihang and Shi Rui also brought food, which opened Tang Xi's eyes, and belatedly thought, it turns out that going out to play is really different from going out to collect ghosts.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, they finally reached the camping area.
The small wooden houses of different shapes are scattered in the mountains, facing each other and providing privacy.
"It's so beautiful! Where do we live?" Qi Sihui cheered.
"Those two rooms are for you girls. Shi Rui and I live opposite." Cheng Yihang pointed to two small wooden houses not far away that were close together.
"One room per person?" Qi Sihui was taken aback.
"Isn't it good to be a little princess once?" Tang Xi smiled and walked directly to one of them.
Of course they have to share one room, and she has to go out to clean up the water ghosts at night.
According to the bet on the road, Shi Rui and Qi Sihui were responsible for preparing the barbecue for the evening.
The staff of Cheng's family had already delivered the materials. While the two were busy processing, Cheng Yihang walked up to Tang Xi and said in a low voice, "Go and have a look first?"
"En." Tang Xi nodded.
The two casually said something to go to see the scenery, and then left generously.
"This way." Cheng Yihang led her around the wooden house area, walked for a while, and pushed aside the fence at the intersection, "It's just ahead."
"Xia Shuang is also desperate." Tang Xi shook her head, "This place is too far away from the tourist's camping area, and I can't hear the sound. If I run here alone, let alone meet a water ghost, even if I meet a water ghost Robbery is also dangerous."
"Over the tourist camping area, there are three consecutive prohibition signs." Cheng Yihang was powerless. "And the road coming here has not been repaired. Even if ordinary people come in, they will feel bored and turn back after walking for a while."
Tang Xi shrugged. Well, Xia Shuang who can provoke the water ghost to this extent is really not an ordinary person.
"Here we are." Cheng Yihang stopped.
Tang Xi looked up and couldn't help taking a deep breath.
The rolling mountains are inlaid in the sky, dyed golden by the afterglow of the setting sun. And in this small valley surrounded by mountains, there are green grass and flowers, and a lake in the middle is as clear as emerald green, reflecting the shadows of mountains and trees, quiet and beautiful.
"Beautiful, isn't it?" Cheng Yihang said, "There is a narrow road leading in and out of this valley. The entrance was covered by thick creeper vines before, and it was discovered by an employee who accidentally fell in."
"Solve the problem first and then enjoy the scenery." Tang Xi strode towards the lake.
"After someone committed suicide here, we paid a lot of money to hire several professional salvage teams and frogmen to salvage." Cheng Yihang followed behind her and continued, "As you can see, this lake is only this big, there is no undercurrent branch, and the lake water The deepest part is ten meters, the shallowest two or three meters, and the average is about five meters. But it is such a small lake, and those professional teams that can salvage sunken ships from the sea can't find a single one that jumped for less than 24 hours Corpse."
"What's so strange about this." Tang Xi chuckled, "If there is really something under the lake, even if you drain the water, you probably won't find the body."
"To tell you the truth, I originally planned that if the second uncle came back and couldn't find the body, he would have to drain the lake. No matter how beautiful the scenery is, no one is important." Cheng Yihang smiled bitterly, "So, whether the Cheng family can avoid this loss depends on rely on you."
"I'll do my best after receiving the reward." Tang Xi nodded to him and stood by the lake.
The calm lake water seems to feel something, the color is deeper, as if slowly changing from bright green emerald to dark green, even the sunlight shining on the body has lost its temperature.
