Fu Wen looked at Ji Jing. “However, I didn’t expect this Taoist priest to be able to see through my tricks. He didn’t expect her to be so powerful at such a young age.”
Fu Wen did not take this little girl seriously at first. Fu Xian trusted her, so perhaps she was indeed a real Taoist with some small skills.
She even said that she was here to investigate Ji Hui’s love affair, but Fu Bing clearly did not succeed, so how could Ji Hui be caught in the love affair?
Fu Wen was almost certain that this little Taoist priest had made the wrong judgment.
However, when Ji Jing began to explain the effects of the peach blossom tribulation in detail and saw through the fake ancient book with a glance, Fu Wen realized that his judgment was wrong.
Ji Jing shook her head. “This is just some basic Taoist knowledge. I just memorized it.”
Fu Wen didn’t say anything, but he knew inside that the reason why the forbidden art was forbidden art was because it was forbidden to understand and forbidden to use. Ji Jing could touch the real art; the thing itself was already represented. Ji Jing was not an ordinary little Taoist.
Fu Xian looked left and right before finally understanding what was going on. “Little Taoist, don’t be modest. Therefore, Fu Wen originally used this fake spell to coax Fu Bing. Logically speaking, it would not have succeeded.
However, now Ji Hui has really fallen into a romantic tribulation. Am I right?” “Yes, that’s right,” Ji Jing said.
“Does Ji Hui’s love tribulation have anything to do with us?” Fu Wen pressed on. He was very sure that the book was fake, but why did someone change Ji Hui’s fate?
“From the looks of it, it doesn’t seem to matter. At least, Ji Hui’s peach blossom tribulation wasn’t caused by Fu Bing.” Ji Jing shook her head. However, her eyes were a little solemn. This coincidence seemed to be a good thing, but it was not.
Ji Jing believed that her intuition was not wrong. Fu Bing and Ji Hui’s love tribulation was related, but now it seems that Fu Bing did not succeed. Ji Jing did not see any obvious karma in her.
“There’s another possibility. Someone used Fu Bing’s or Ji Hui’s other predecessor’s items to change Ji Hui’s fate. The possibility of Fu Bing being used was the highest.” Ji Jing thought to herself. This matter wasn’t that simple.
“I know. I don’t have any leads yet, but I’ll check it out.” Fu Wen understood what Ji Jing meant. However, since the backlash would not fall on Fu Bing, he heaved a sigh of relief.
“Thank you for your help. The tea is very good.” The clues here were cut off. Ji Jing stood up. “I’ll visit again when I’m free.”
Fu Xian had planned to stay at home to help his sister pack some things, so in the end, only Ji Jing went downstairs alone.
Ji Jing had just walked out of the building when she saw Wei Ming squatting beside the flower bed.
“Let’s go. I’ve finished my business. There was still some time left, so he could go to the haunted house to take a look.” Ji Jing tightened the sword on her back. She had been out for some time, but she hadn’t seen the lightning tribulation brewing to strike her. It should be fine.
Wei Ming stood up excitedly. ” Okay! I’ll lead the way.”
Ji Jing paused. ” Leave? Is that haunted house very close to here?”
Wei Ming nodded. “Yes, it’s not too far. It’s only half an hour’s walk.”
Ji Jing suddenly became suspicious. Why did all these things happen around here? Fu Xian’s house was not far from here. Was this a coincidence? Or was it man-made?
Ji Jing temporarily suppressed these emotions and followed Wei Ming to the ruins left behind by the demolition.
Half an hour later, the two of them arrived.
“I see.” Ji Jing had just arrived near the ruins when she felt an unusual aura.
“What did you see?” Wei Ming nervously asked.
“This is the entrance to the ancient market.” Ji Jing looked around.
Although she was not very familiar with C City, it was the most basic thing to understand the general layout of a new city. For Taoist priests, other than the ordinary administrative divisions, they would also investigate the feng Shui layout of the entire city and understand the changes since ancient times.
The last time she checked the Feng Shui Bureau of the Ou Li Building, Ji Jing had also investigated the layout of C City.
If the Ou Li Building was the best location in C City, then this place was the place where evil people hid.
“Market entrance?” Wei Ming swallowed nervously..
