Tan Xuan's words were very direct without any foreshadowing, which made everyone in the room surprised and the ghosts fell silent.
"Husband, are you feeling a bit dissatisfied? Miaomiao has helped us a lot. Not to mention those before, this time it also helped to prevent the bad guy from destroying the house."
Xiao Di asked very puzzledly. Although Tan Xuan said some inexplicable things about Miao Miao before, she had never doubted Miao Miao, nor did she expect that Tan Xuan would doubt Miao Miao.
Tan Xuan waved his hand, "Have I ever made a fuss or made a fuss? It's better to listen to what the person involved has to say. Right? I hope you and we will have a good ending and get together well."
As he said that, his eyes fell on Miao Miao again. Different from the affectionate look when he looked at Xiao Di, when he looked at Miao Miao, Tan Xuan's eyes were not filled with any emotion.
Miaomiao was silent for a moment, then chuckled, brushing off her previous submissiveness, "It's no wonder Duanhun, I hid it so carefully, and thought I didn't expose any flaws, but I still couldn't escape your eyes. I just didn't know you were
Since when did you start doubting me?"
"Miaomiao, are you really..." Xiao Di looked at Miaomiao in disbelief. The trust between humans and ghosts collapsed instantly, and he couldn't accept this fact for a while.
Tan Xuan smiled lightly and replied: "It's not that I started to doubt you, but I have never believed you from the beginning to the end."
"What?" The smile on Miao Miao's face froze instantly.
"Do you still remember what I said to you in the basement of the abandoned morgue of the hospital when we first met?" Tan Xuan put away his indifference and asked the female ghost Miaomiao as if they were chatting with each other, and sat back slowly.
He lay down and fiddled with the cups on the small table.
"What did you say to me?" Miao Miao rolled her eyes and shook her head after thinking for a while, "You said a lot at that time. I don't know which sentence you were referring to."
Tan Xuan looked at the female ghost and snorted softly, "I said at the time that I hope you will always be kind. In fact, I didn't say the second part of the sentence at the time. Even if you pretend, you have to keep pretending. I didn't expect that you won't be able to pretend after painting.
Went down."
Miaomiao pointed at Tang Miao and Tan Xuan and asked: "Did she say something to you? She was rummaging for something in the study, and I stopped her. You don't think that I am in cahoots with this vicious woman like her?"
Is that okay? I advise you not to heal the scar and forget about the pain. I can clearly see how she treated you back then. Don’t be fooled by her current appearance."
Tan Xuan shook his head, "Stop pretending to be pitiful. Do you want me to give you some clarity? Well, let me ask you, was it you who caused Qian Bo to lose his soul?"
"This..." Miao Miao's face instantly turned ugly, with a hint of panic in her surprised expression.
"Why do you think it's me?" Miao Miao asked in shock.
"You did that thing very covertly. Everything seemed natural and a complete accident, but if you look closely, you can still see some clues. Don't you know, I am very sensitive to auras, and your little tricks are quite good.
Not enough to watch.”
"Haha..." Miaomiao couldn't help but smile bitterly, "It turns out that you have discovered it a long time ago. I thought I had prepared it in detail, but I still underestimated your ability. It seems that the rumors cannot be fully believed.
It must be believed that the death of a beloved man is not a wasted reputation."
Tan Xuan snorted proudly and said: "No one's plan is foolproof. Just like when I was in danger this time, those people thought they had plotted against me, but they still allowed me to come back safely."
"Since you already discovered at that time that I had ulterior motives for approaching you, why not only did you not kill me, but you also brought me to your home?" Miao Miao asked with a puzzled look on her face, her puzzled expression even worse than Xiao Di's.
Even richer.
"If I don't cooperate, won't your work be in vain? You must have been very unhappy when I handed you over to Huang Jingming at first. That's why you directed and acted in such a play, which made me feel grateful and guilty to you.
"Originally, I pretended not to know what else you were up to, but now that something like this happened, I no longer have the interest to wait any longer."
Tan Xuan took out the wine gourd and put it on the small table, and asked: "Is it because of this that you approached me?"
Miaomiao didn't speak, but her expression already gave an affirmative answer.
"You didn't hesitate to risk your soul because you wanted me to feel grateful and put you in the gourd, right? After all, there have been many ghosts in this gourd, but it's a pity that I didn't let you get what you wanted."
Miaomiao nodded, "Yes, I came here just for this gourd. Many ghost kings have been banned here. I approached you just to find an opportunity to break the seal of the gourd and let those ghost kings regain their freedom."
"Regain freedom? Haha..." Tan Xuan sneered twice, as if he heard some funny joke, "In my memory, my master once used this gourd to collect seven ghost kings who harmed the world, but that
These ghost kings are not in this gourd. They were broken into pieces by my master and melted into the wine. Otherwise, how could there be so much spiritual energy inside for you to restore your soul body."
"You said there is no ghost king alive in this gourd? Are all the auras absorbed by my repair soul body transformed by the ghost kings in the past?"
"That's right!" Tan Xuan snorted, "If I don't let you out, after closing the lid, you will be like those guys, your soul will be gone, and eventually you will turn into the smell of alcohol."
Miaomiao looked at the gourd on the small table, frowned, and asked: "Is the wine in this gourd transformed by those ghost kings?"
Tan Xuan snorted disdainfully, "What are you thinking? I bought these wines to drink. They just add some mellow flavor to the wine."
"Oh!" Miaomiao breathed a sigh of relief, and her tense expression relaxed slightly.
Tan Xuan touched the gourd and continued to ask easily: "Tell me, who sent you to rescue those ghost kings? Is the guy behind you not thinking well? Let alone those guys.
If I send a kid of your level here, does it have no other subordinates? Or is there something unique about you? Even if I give you a gourd, if I hadn't done it intentionally, it would be difficult for you to get out."
Miaomiao smiled bitterly and nodded, "Yes, if you don't go in, you won't know what's good inside. If you don't listen to what you say, you won't know the dangers inside. I don't know why the leader chose me. Maybe it's because of your reputation.
It won't help to send other ghosts with stronger abilities, so let me, who is of average ability, explore the way first."
Xiao Di denied Xiao Di's statement on the side, "No, your leader did not ask you to come here simply to explore the way, but because Tan Xuan was sure that he would not take the hard one, so he asked you to break into us first. Only
Only when we completely believe in you can you have a chance to succeed, and everything you do confirms this."
"Haha..." Miao Miao looked at Xiao Di and raised her thumb, "I have never understood why Tan Xuan is with you. It turns out that you are not useless except for being impulsive and accidental. It seems that I have underestimated you.
That's right, my plan is to gain your trust first, find the soul-sealing gourd and then wait for an opportunity to break the seal. Qian Bo's soul loss was also arranged by me. I thought I could pretend to be pitiful and get close to losing my soul, so I could enter the gourd to recuperate, but I didn't expect it.
That guy Tan Xuan actually sealed me into the painting. If this guy hadn't found something and pushed it to the bookshelf, I might not have been able to find this gourd."
"Your mission here is to free those guys? Are there no other missions?" Tan Xuan asked.
Miaomiao shook her head, "No more. If we haven't succeeded in this mission, how can we have other missions?"
"Really?" The corners of Tan Xuan's mouth raised slightly, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
"Really." Miao Miao said with a bitter smile: "I'm not afraid of your jokes. I entered the gourd and found that there was plenty of spiritual energy inside, so I just focused on stabilizing my soul and forgot about the mission."
"Then you clearly had the opportunity to leave in the past two days, why didn't you leave?" Tan Xuan continued to ask, "Don't say you didn't understand what I said before I went out."
"I understand what you mean." Miao Miao looked directly into Tan Xuan's eyes and replied.
"I didn't take the opportunity to leave. Firstly, because there were magic circles around the study, I didn't dare to break in. Being a ghost is already very difficult, and I didn't want to end up in a desperate situation. Secondly, I felt that you had clear grudges and it was not at all what the rumors said.
I am ruthless and follow the rules in everything. Although I have an ulterior motive in approaching you, I have never hurt you from beginning to end, and I have also helped you, so you have no reason to hurt me."
"Haha..." Tan Xuan couldn't help but laugh, "You are so sharp-tongued. If you say that, if I want to hurt you, it will seem like a heinous crime."
Miaomiao didn't speak, but looked at Tan Xuan with clear eyes. It was obvious that that was what he thought.
"Let's not talk about yours. Let's talk about your leader. What is it? Those ghost kings have nothing to do with each other. What is the purpose of releasing them?"
Miaomiao shook her head, "I don't know about this. I'm just following orders. I don't know what the specific plan is. My mission is to break the seal of the Fengling Gourd. As for the background of my leader, I don't know.
You know, I have only seen it twice in these years, and I don’t know if you ask me.”
"Then did your leader tell you how to break the seal?"
"It said I could use Yinhong to break it open."
"Oh!" Tan Xuan frowned when he heard this, looked at Miaomiao carefully again, and sighed: "I didn't expect that you are still a pure yin and yang spirit. It seems that your family leader has some tricks, and he actually knows to use such a vicious method.
Break the seal."
"What do you mean?" Miao Miao asked in confusion. Xiao Di and Tang Miao were also confused.
"You were a pure yin body during your lifetime. You were born in a pure yin time and died in a pure yin day. You were originally a pure yin ghost. However, after your death, someone used the righteous yang energy to refine your soul. No wonder you were sealed.
Among the bricks and stones, it turns out that others have done it intentionally, so there is yang in the yin of your soul, and yin in the yang. Once the yin red breaks the body and the yin and yang are out of balance, it will indeed temporarily break the yin and yang seal of the gourd seed."
"Really?" Miaomiao laughed happily.
Tan Xuan sneered and shook his head, "Don't be too happy too early. Do you know what will happen if you break the seal?"
"What's the result? Isn't it just some bleeding? It's nothing serious, right? I heard from my leader that the whole process is very quick and not painful..." Miao Miao's voice became lower as she spoke, because Tan Xuan's eyes seemed to be watching.
Like an idiot, she knew what she said must be terribly wrong.
"You really don't have any pain anymore. If you use your own soul to perform blood stains, even ghosts can't do it. What pleasure do you have?"
"Ah!" Miaomiao was stunned for a moment and asked in disbelief: "You said I would lose my mind?"
Tan Xuan shook his head, "How can such a good thing happen?"
"What do you mean?" Miao Miao looked at Tan Xuan blankly.
"Don't ask if you shouldn't ask, you won't have the chance anyway."
Immediately afterwards, Tan Xuan asked again: "By the way, you said you saw me on the Ghost Festival last year. Was it your family leader who asked you to go?"
"No." Miao Miao shook her head, "Only that day can I leave the underground of the morgue. Seeing you at Jiang's house was just accidental. After all, there was quite a sensation that day."
"That's it." Tan Xuan nodded slightly, and then waved his hand towards Miaomiao, "You go, you can take care of yourself from now on. We have just met each other, and I will give you a piece of advice before I leave, don't go to your leader.
It’s not worth it to sacrifice your life for someone who has taken your own life.”
