Li Gongfu and Xu Xian returned to the room
"My sister-in-law is a snake demon, but she's a good demon. Don't worry, brother-in-law is not afraid. But if you have any problems in the future, you must explain them to us clearly. We are a family and we should solve problems together. What happened today? Where are my sister-in-law, Xiaoqing, and your sister?"
Xu Xian covered his face and cried
"Brother-in-law, thank you! Today is the fifth day of the fifth lunar month. My wife is feeling very unwell. She told me that snakes are very afraid of realgar powder, but I don't know why there is so much realgar powder in the mansion, so she can't maintain her human form. Then she heard Xiaoqing's heartbreaking screams and left the room. When I chased after them, I couldn't see them anymore. I wonder where they went?"
Li Gongfu was a constable and had some ability to solve cases. After listening to Xu Xian's words and combining it with the situation he had checked before, he roughly guessed what had happened. It must be that his silly wife Xu Jiaorong was deceived by the monk and sprinkled realgar powder in the mansion, which led to his sister-in-law and Xiaoqing revealing their true colors. There was so much realgar powder in the mansion, they must have been hiding. As for Xu Jiaorong, she must have been taken away by his sister-in-law, so they would be fine.
"It's okay. My sister-in-law and the others are afraid of realgar powder, so they must have gone into hiding. We'll have the servants clean up the house. They'll come back once it's clean."
When Xu Xian heard what his brother-in-law said, he immediately found his backbone. Although it was still the middle of the night, he woke up all the servants. In fact, most of the servants were awake, but they just didn't dare to come to the backyard. Now the whole mansion was mobilized to clean up the realgar powder.
Zhang Xintong brought Xiaoqing and Xu Jiaorong into the space, and placed Xiaoqing in the cold pool in the mountains, and Xu Jiaorong beside the cold pool. The cold pool was collected from the world of the sickly demon princess, and was in the mountains of the space.
Zhang Xintong would not tell anyone else about the space except herself and her husband, so she isolated the mountains around the cold pool, so that Xiao 9 and the others could not get in, and Xiao Qing could not get out.
After entering the cold pool, Xiaoqing was obviously much better. Zhang Xintong was not in good condition, so she also soaked in the cold pool for a while to wash off the realgar powder. In addition, the cold pool was icy, which snakes like best, so she quickly returned to normal.
"Sister, where is this? It feels so good!"
Looking at the playful Xiaoqing, Zhang Xintong felt relieved.
"If you like it, stay in the bath for a while longer. I'll go see my sister."
Xiaoqing was a little angry
"Sister, she was the one who spread the realgar powder. She also put up talismans around my room."
The original owner was skilled in deduction, and Zhang Xintong had already figured out that it was all Fahai's fault, and that Xu Jiaorong had good intentions but had done something bad. Zhang Xintong explained this to Xiaoqing, who reluctantly forgave Xu Jiaorong.
"Well, since she did something bad for my own good, I'll forgive her!"
Zhang Xintong knocked Xiaoqing on the head
"What do you mean by her? She is your brother-in-law's sister. You should call her sister too."
Xiaoqing rubbed her head
"understood"
Zhang Xintong transformed into a human form and fed Xu Jiaorong a Nine-Turn Resurrection Pill. However, Xu Jiaorong, who should have been resurrected, did not move. Zhang Xintong calculated that the Black and White Impermanence in this world were really fast. Xu Jiaorong's soul was taken away by the Black and White Impermanence as soon as it left her body. She had to go to the underworld quickly.
"Xiaoqing, please stay here. I'm going to the underworld to bring back my sister's soul."
Xiaoqing wanted to go with them because it was such a special day like the fifth day of May, and she was afraid that Zhang Xintong would suffer any loss.
"Sister, I'll go with you!"
Zhang Xintong shook her head
"No need. You are not very experienced. It's not good to go to the underworld. Don't worry, sister is fine."
Zhang Xintong hurried to the underworld to avoid any accidents that might happen if she stayed there for too long.
Xu Jiaorong had already crossed the Yellow Springs Road and was about to reach Judge Bao's territory. Zhang Xintong arrived at this time.
"elder sister"
Xu Jiaorong saw Zhang Xintong and quickly ran to her side.
"Sister-in-law, why are you here? Are you dead too?"
Zhang Xintong pulled Xu Jiaorong behind her
"No, I'm here to take you home."
A snake demon ran to the underworld and started wreaking havoc, and the Black and White Impermanence and Zhang Xintong started fighting.
"The King of Hell ordered you to die at three o'clock in the morning. Who dares to keep you alive until five o'clock? A snake demon who dares to run wild in the underworld will be spared."
Zhang Xintong, holding the Baiyi Sword, engaged the Black and White Impermanence in a fierce fight. Because it was the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, and she was pregnant, the fight was intense. Wanting a quick victory, Zhang Xintong quickly brought Xu Jiaorong back and took out the God-Slaying Hammer from her spaceship.
"Black and White Impermanence, I don't want to hurt you. I'm only here to save my sister. She's not dead yet, she just fainted from shock. But if you insist on stopping me, don't blame me for being merciless with my hammer."
Zhang Xintong took out the God-killing Hammer, and the Black and White Impermanence were scared, but in their territory, it would be too embarrassing to admit defeat. Fortunately, the ghost messenger came to deliver a message.
"Judge Bao wants you guys to come over. He wants to question you personally."
Zhang Xintong knew that Judge Bao was the most fair and selfless. In the previous life, the original owner came to the underworld to save Xu Xian, and this time she came to save Xu Jiaorong. Since Judge Bao called them, they decided to go over.
Zhang Xintong put the God-Slaying Hammer back into the space, and followed the Black and White Impermanence with Xu Jiaorong.
"Sister-in-law, they say you are a snake demon? Is that true?"
Zhang Xintong nodded
"Sister, I am a snake demon. Xu Xian knows about this. Don't worry, I won't hurt you. Don't be afraid."
Xu Jiaorong was a little scared, but since she had been to such a scary place as the underworld, she didn't seem to be so scared anymore. Her sister-in-law was usually very nice to her, and this time she ran to the underworld to save her, which touched her very much.
"Sister-in-law, I'm not afraid."
Zhang Xintong wanted to laugh when she saw Xu Jiaorong's clenched fists. Xu Jiaorong was so adorable. She was just a mortal, so it was inevitable that she would be afraid. It was normal, and it was good enough that she could accept it.
"Okay, sister, don't be afraid, just follow me closely."
When Xu Jiaorong saw Judge Bao, she was frightened by his aura and immediately knelt on the ground. Judge Bao asked:
"Who is kneeling? Tell me your name."
Xu Jiaorong stammered and replied:
"My name is Xu Jiaorong"
Judge Bao picked up the Book of Life and Death
"Xu Jiaorong, let me take a look at the Book of Life and Death."
Judge Bao searched for a while and found Xu Jiaorong's name.
"Xu Jiaorong, from Qiantang County, has a younger brother named Xu Xian, right?"
Xu Jiaorong nodded
"Yes"
Judge Bao frowned
"This Book of Life and Death records that your life span has not yet ended. This judge cannot accept you and sentences you to return to the world of the living."
Xu Jiaorong was surprised and kowtowed to Judge Bao quickly.
"Thank you, sir, thank you, sir."
Judge Bao looked at Zhang Xintong
"What's the matter with you?"
Zhang Xintong holds fist
"My sister was brought here by the Black and White Impermanence, and I'm here to save her."
Judge Bao’s face was as black as iron and his aura was intimidating.
"Is the underworld a place you can come to whenever you want?"
Zhang Xintong knew that Judge Bao was impartial and it was useless to reason with him.
"I want to see the King of Hell, please be accommodating."
Zhang Xintong took out the God-killing Hammer from the space. Judge Bao was not afraid, but the Black and White Impermanence were immediately afraid and hurried to inform the King of Hell. Zhang Xintong and Xu Jiaorong were taken to the Hall of Yama again.
Zhang Xintong looked at the King of Hell above. Although he was not ugly, he was much worse than her husband when he was the King of Hell in other worlds.
Zhang Xintong looked at the ghost officials around her again. Perhaps because she had been Meng Po before, she was not afraid of these ghost officials at all, but rather felt a sense of familiarity.
