MTL - Daughter-in-law Who Fell From the Sky-Chapter 31
"Hello, Xiaoxiao, are you free today?" After the call was connected, Shu Xiaoran's energetic voice reached Xiao Xiaoxiao's ears through the microphone.
After the last cooperation, the relationship between the two has become a lot closer. Occasionally, Shu Xiaoran will ask Xiao Xiaoxiao out for a meal or something.
"Today? I probably can't do it today." Xiao Xiaoxiao was a little happy when she received Shu Xiaoran's call. If she had changed before, she would probably be free.
But now, Xiao Xiaoxiao is still clear in her heart that if she goes out, she will definitely be surrounded by people, and she will definitely cause trouble to Shu Xiaoran.
"Aren't you free?" Shu Xiaoran expressed regret in his tone, "I just installed a super-large monitor in the living room, and I wanted to watch a movie with you, but now I can only watch it by myself. "
"Watching a movie at your home?" Xiao Xiaoxiao's brows flashed a tangle. If it was at Shu Xiaoran's house, there should be nothing wrong with it. Those reporters probably wouldn't find Shu Xiaoran's house.
"Yes, Xiaoxiao, are you coming?" Shu Xiaoran asked again after hearing the hesitation in Xiao Xiaoxiao's words.
After hesitating for a while, Xiao Xiaoxiao made a decision and said, "Come on, I'll come right away."
"Well, you wait at home, I will pick you up at your door later."
"good."
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Shu Xiaoran put down his phone and turned his gaze back to the Weibo page on the computer screen. Looking at the comments under Xiao Xiaoxiao's Weibo, he dialed another person's phone number...
It's better for these remarks that are seriously inconsistent with the facts to disappear as soon as possible. Xiao Xiaoxiao is already her friend, and she will not watch her friend being bullied!
…
In the early morning of the next day, just after Su Jingke and Wen Jinyu finished their breakfast, some guests came to visit.
Wen Jinyu looked at the woman with a gentle expression in front of him, and after a cursory glance at her figure, he silently raised his vigilance in his heart.
"Jinyu, let me introduce you. This is Bai Jue." In order to reduce unnecessary trouble, Su Jingke concealed Bai Jue's identity as a fox demon.
"Ms. Wen, hello." Bai Jue has been in Beijing for many years, and he has heard a little about Wen Jinyu's existence. In his early twenties, he was able to support the huge Mingcheng Group. He was definitely a character, and he was worthy of the hard work of his old friend.
"Hello, Miss Bai, I really want to hear your name, Miss Bai. Have we met somewhere?" Wen Jinyu felt a little familiar when she first heard the name Bai Jue. , now after seeing the face of the real person, the inexplicable sense of familiarity has been strengthened a lot.
"Miss Wen's memory is really good. I was lucky enough to attend the funeral of Miss Wen's grandfather a few years ago. Miss Wen probably met me at that time." The circle of older generations is still very loud, and she had some intersections with Mr. Wen before.
"You know my grandfather?" Wen Jinyu's face suddenly flashed a look of surprise, this Bai Jue should be about the same age as him, how could he know his grandfather?
"I have had some contacts with Mr. Wen." Bai Jue saw Wen Jinyu's doubts, and said with a smile: "Miss Wen, I am not as young as you see, I am already an old man .”
Suspicion flashed across Wen Jinyu's eyes at first, but then he thought that Bai Jue was a celestial master, and it would be very normal for a celestial master to have some way to prolong his life or keep his youth forever.
"Bai...Senior, I offended you just now." Thinking of this, Wen Jinyu's attitude has changed a bit. No matter what relationship Bai Jue has with Su Jingke, as long as she is someone that grandpa knows, she can be regarded as her elder up.
"Miss Wen doesn't need to be so outrageous, just call me by my name, why don't you be a senior or not." Bai Jue didn't care about this. If it really counted, he was much older than Old Man Wen.
…
Wen Jinyu had communicated with the calligrapher a long time ago, and as soon as they arrived at the construction site, the person in charge took the three of them to the scene of the accident.
"Mr. Wen, those migrant workers fell to this place and died." The project manager pointed to a place where there was still a trace of blood, "The cause of death was the accidental collapse of the scaffolding, and the safety ropes tied to them All broke, so that accident happened."
"What did the supervisor in charge say? What caused the safety rope to break?" Wen Jinyu asked.
"After the on-site inspection by the supervisor and the police, there is no problem with the safety rope. It was simply broken due to excessive force. However, the safety rope can bear 700 catties no matter what..." The person in charge had a tangled face .
This is the weird part of the matter. According to common sense, such a load-bearing capacity can completely bear an adult, and there will be no such thing as a break, let alone several people in a row.
Wen Jinyu looked at Su Jingke and Bai Jue, and asked them if they found anything.
"This gentleman should go to work first, let's take a look here for ourselves." Bai Jue said, if there are outsiders, there will always be a little haul to explain.
After sending the person away, Bai Jue immediately squatted down and carefully observed the blood-stained place. Su Jingke didn't look at the ground, she spread her consciousness to investigate the fluctuation of spiritual power in the vicinity.
"Someone cast a curse on this." Su Jingke and Bai Jue said at the same time, and after looking at each other, they both confirmed the cause of the accident in their hearts.
"Jinyu, the accidents of those employees were deliberately caused by someone." Su Jingke explained, "It should be that some monks cast a spell on those people, so that such an unreasonable thing happened."
"The person who cast the curse should be a monk of the human race." Bai Jue added, she found a familiar aura in the remaining blood just now, and the person who cast the spell might be an old acquaintance of hers.
"Human race? Doesn't that mean there are monsters here?" Wen Jinyu frowned as he spoke, it seemed that he was still not clear about some things.
"Well, there are not only demons but also ghosts." Bai Jue added kindly.
"..." That's right, after all, there are gods, so it's not surprising that there are these.
After all, Wen Jinyu's cognitive ability has been baptized once, and he quickly accepted the fact that the people around him may be monsters.
"Can you find the person who cast the curse?" Wen Jinyu asked after calming down.
"I probably know who she is. I have dealt with that person before." Bai Jue frowned slightly as he spoke. She would never recognize that person's aura, but according to what she knew about her, , she should not affect innocent people...
"Who is it?" Wen Jinyu asked impatiently.
"She is a great power among the monks of the human race." Bai Jue said truthfully, "I can't beat her."
"What stage has she reached in her cultivation?" Su Jingke asked, pursing her lips.
"She's already a Mahayana monk." She was only one step away from Ascension, and she was considered the top existence among the human monks.
"Isn't such a person supposed to meddle in ordinary affairs?" Mahayana is only a small step away from ascension. Generally, people who have reached this stage of cultivation are all in retreat and single-mindedly enlightened. How can such mundane matters that affect enlightenment be ignored? .
"That's what I said, but I can be sure that the breath left behind definitely belongs to her." Bai Jue was very sure in her words. She had dealt with that person many times, and she absolutely did not admit her mistake.
"Then I'll accompany you to find her." Su Jingke said, since she is a Mahayana monk, Bai Jue, a demon who has just transformed into a god, is definitely not an opponent. In order to fulfill her promise to Master, she should go with her.
Bai Jue raised her eyebrows when she heard the words. She didn't know Su Jingke's identity, but only knew that her strength should be higher than her own.
But the person I mentioned just now should be well known among the monks of the human race. Why did Su Jingke react as if he didn't know him at all? Could it be that she is a monk from the deep mountains and old forests?
"I'm fine, but Miss Wen..." Bai Jue is an old monster, and Wen Jinyu's emotional expression just now gave her a lot of news.
Although Wen Jinyu concealed it well, Bai Jue could still see a hint of possessiveness towards Su Jingke and a faint hostility towards herself in her eyes.
On the other hand, Su Jingke, although he cared a lot about Wen Jinyu in words and deeds, he definitely didn't see Wen Jinyu's thoughts on her.
The future development of these two people should be very interesting, Bai Jue thought as if joining in the fun, I don't know what the end result will be, Wen Jinyu is a mortal who is too ordinary to be ordinary.
"Can you guarantee Jingke's safety?" Wen Jinyu asked Bai Jue. She didn't know whether it was the Mahayana monks or her own little god. If it was dangerous for Su Jingke in the past, she could come from other places. Start investigating.
"Your Jingke is better than me." Bai Jue said helplessly, she didn't know if Su Jingke was from the Mahayana stage.
"Jinyu, don't worry, I shouldn't be able to defeat me in the Mahayana stage." Due to the rules of the heaven, Su Jingke's ability was suppressed in the mortal world. But no matter how much she suppresses her cultivation, she is the closest to ascending existence, and no one can be stronger than her when facing the natives.
A trace of surprise flashed in Bai Jue's eyes when he heard Su Jingke's words. He couldn't tell that Su Jingke's strength was comparable to Mahayana's, but that Senior Qiu who was her master should be even stronger.
"Then be careful. If there is any danger, you should come back quickly. I don't want the information to be obtained based on your injury. Do you understand?" Wen Jinyu urged with some uneasiness.
Compared with the acquisition of information, in her eyes, Su Jingke's safety is not as important.
"Well, Jinyu, don't worry, just stay at home and wait for me to come back." Su Jingke is still very confident in his own strength.
After sending Wen Jinyu to the company, Su Jingke and Bai Jue went to find the person who cast the spell.
The author has something to say: Mijiu~
