Chapter 165 Painted Skin Xiaowei 2
On this side, Wang Sheng followed Pang Tong back to the mansion and settled down. Wang Sheng arranged Pang Yong in his own city defense army. Soon Wang Sheng became friends with the brothers in the army. Pei Rong also often came to Pang Yong's place to play, so the relationship between the few people improved instantly. On this side, Old Man Xia brought Bingbing and Xiao Wei to an old house in the deep mountains and old forests. They found no one, but found very good toad oil. Xiao Wei was silent. Old Man Xia found Ye Yi hiding in the secret passage. Ye Yi told Old Man Xia about his experience. But when the few people saw that Ye Yi was hiding something, they didn't ask anything. At this time, Long Yun brought the constables to arrest Ye Yi. Old Man Xia and Bingbing and others did not stop them. So the three of them watched him take Ye Yi away. After the others left, Xiao Wei said: "Master, the Long Yun just now was the one who deceived me and wanted to kill me in my previous life." Bingbing asked curiously after hearing this: "Previous life?" Old Man Xia interrupted quickly: "You heard wrong, Xiao Wei said in a dream..."
Xiao Wei hurriedly said, "I dreamed that Long Yun wasn't a good person... and would deceive us."
Old Man Xia said: "Let's go, don't meddle in other people's business!" So the three of them hurried away. As soon as they left, Long Yun came back, but Old Man Xia and the others had already left. When they arrived in Taiyuan City, the city was not very safe because of the sand bandits. At night, the three of them stayed in the inn. As soon as they fell asleep, Old Man Xia felt a demonic aura. It turned out to be Ye Yi's wife Xiaohong. Xiaohong came to Old Man Xia to ask him to help save Ye Yi.
Xiaohong: "Demon conqueror, please save my husband..." Old Man Xia said, "Humans and demons are on different paths. You shouldn't be with him, and you shouldn't kill mortals!" Xiaohong cried and said that it was Master Wang's son who saw Xiaohong's beauty and wanted to take her for himself. He falsely accused Ye Yi of poisonous toad oil, which led to Xiaohong's accidental murder. Old Man Xia fell silent after hearing this... At this time, Bingbing and Xiaowei walked in and said, "Master, she is very pitiful, and Ye Yi is innocent. Let's save them!"
Xiao Wei said, "It's not difficult to rescue Ye Yi. The hard part is that we don't have to hide after rescuing him. We also need to let Lord Wang know about my son's crime. If he is an upright official, he will let Ye Yi and the others go. I'm afraid he is not."
Xiao Hong said, "I'm willing to travel the world with Ye Yi..." Xiao Wei nodded and told Old Man Xia about it. He cast a spell and went to the prison to bring Ye Yi back. Old Man Xia, mindful of the circumstances, released Xiao Hong and allowed them to leave. Meanwhile, Long Yun, upon hearing that Old Man Xia was a demon slayer, had come to the inn and wanted him to take him in as his apprentice...
Long Yun knelt on the ground and said, "Senior, please accept me as your disciple!"
After hearing what Xiao Wei had said, Old Man Xia knew that this person had bad character and would do anything to achieve his goals. So he said, "I don't accept disciples. They are my granddaughters. You'd better leave!" Then he closed the door and ignored him. Bingbing and Xiao Wei heard the noise but ignored it. However, Xiao Wei was thinking about whether to seek revenge. After all, it was because of him in the previous life that Xiao Wei did so many wrong things. In fact, Old Man Xia had been listening to the noise. He was afraid that his disciple would not let go and seek revenge on this Long Yun. Although Xiao Wei didn't say it to the end, he guessed that the ending would not be good.
Here, Wang Sheng led his men to suppress bandits and was seriously injured. He was looking for something to bandage his wounds in Pang Yong's house when Peirong saw him and hurried to help bandage his wounds.
Wang Sheng: "Why are you here?" Peirong said while hugging the bandage, "I came to look for Brother Pang, but I just heard that he went out for something."
Wang Sheng glanced at Peirong. This was his consummate wife. It was just that neither of them wanted to be together at the time, so the engagement was invalid. Now, he wasn't sure what his feelings were for her; they were complicated.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Peirong said, "Would you like to go to the temple fair later?"
Wang Sheng looked at Peirong, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he slowly said: "Okay..." His voice was soft and gentle, as if carrying a different emotion.
In reality, today's encounter was no accident. Peirong had come here specifically to find Wang Sheng, as her feelings for him had gradually become clear. A series of recent events had made her realize she was deeply in love with this man. She refused to deceive herself any further, nor did she wish to leave any regrets. Therefore, upon hearing the news of Wang Sheng's injury, she rushed to see him without hesitation.
Wang Sheng and Peirong strolled along the bustling streets, pausing occasionally to admire exquisite jewelry and adorable handmade dolls. Suddenly, Wang Sheng spotted a stall selling candied haws (candied haws) and without hesitation, he bought a bunch for Peirong. The two continued their leisurely stroll, chatting and laughing, enjoying this rare leisure time.
Just then, they happened to run into Bingbing and Xiaowei. Wang Sheng hurriedly stepped forward, took Xiaowei's hand tightly, and said, "If you hadn't saved me last time, I'm afraid I would have lost my life long ago. I haven't even had the chance to thank you!" Peirong was initially a little unhappy that Wang Sheng had held Xiaowei, but after hearing his words, her worry immediately turned into joy, and she looked at Xiaowei with gratitude.
However, Bingbing quickly walked up, pulled Wang Sheng's hand away, and asked angrily, "What are you doing?" Then, she pulled Xiao Wei behind her, as if to protect her from harm.
Xiao Wei took a look, smiled gently and said, "It's just a small favor, no need to be so polite." Her smile was as warm as the spring breeze, making people feel extremely comfortable.
However, Wang Sheng refused to give up. He said sincerely, "Miss, please let me treat you to a meal as a token of my gratitude for saving my life."
Xiao Wei shook her head slightly, declining Wang Sheng's invitation. She slowly said, "No need. We're even now. Actually, I'm a fairy, the little fox you saved. Saving you last time was a way of repaying your kindness. Now we're even." Upon hearing Xiao Wei's identity, Peirong jumped in shock, her face awash with fear. Wang Sheng, on the other hand, suddenly understood why a red ribbon had suddenly appeared in his hand that day. It was the very strip of cloth he'd torn off when he'd saved the little fox.
Wang Sheng smiled and said, "Okay! If you need anything in the future, you can always come to the Duwei Mansion to find me. My name is Wang Sheng." After a few pleasantries, Xiao Wei took Bingbing back to the inn. Old Man Xia looked at them and said, "We should leave..."
Xiao Wei nodded slightly in agreement, and then she and Bing Bing began to pack their bags. The three of them bid farewell to Taiyuan City and embarked on a journey to a distant land. They crossed the vast desert, the sun blazing down on the sand dunes, the steam rising like a giant steamer.
