Strange Tales of the Ghosts

The result of the bet between Ao She and Liang Yuan has begun to take shape, so Liang Yuan invited Ao She to his house for tea. The two of them drank tea and talked. Liang Yuan couldn't help but laugh: "How is it? Your Highness, Can it now be proven that humans are indeed selfish?”

"It's not time yet. It seems too early for you to jump to conclusions easily." Ao She put down the tea cup and looked at Liang Yuan, and asked with a smile: "How does it feel to be an official?"

Liangyuan smiled and replied: "Not bad, you can do whatever you want, and no one will notice you no matter what you do."

"Actually, I have been thinking about a question. Is it a sin for us to deceive people in this county with our magic power?"

"Why do you have to say that, Your Highness? We haven't done anything to harm them. We are just working as officials. Everything is only temporary." Liangyuan walked to the side of Nao She and whispered: "I have a hunch that this will happen." For once I’ll win.”

"Yeah?"

"Does Your Highness still have hope for Liu Yu? Since she gave up on you so easily for her father."

"This is enough to prove that there is filial piety in the world, which is goodness."

"Is it good? I don't think so. It's greed. Because human beings are greedy for life and fear death, so they betrayed you and sacrificed you. Isn't that Liu Yu the best evidence?"

Ao She laughed, picked up the tea cup, and continued to drink tea. After a while, he replied: "We will know when the time comes."

"Your Highness, you are going to be executed the day after tomorrow. Do you really have to be dead before you are willing to do it?" Liangyuan didn't understand why Liu Yu betrayed Ao She, and Ao She was not in a hurry.

Ao She shook his head and said nothing. After drinking tea, he replied: "Okay, it's getting late. I'd better go back to the cell first to avoid being discovered."

"Then I will send His Highness back." On the surface, although Liangyuan is an official and Aoshe is a prisoner, this is not the case. Aoshe is the dignified Dragon Prince, and Liangyuan is just a little fish spirit. Naturally, he will not You will forget this, and this little power in the world will not go to the head of your good wishes.

Ao She waved his hand and said, "No need, you have to be more cautious. It would be bad if others knew about it."

"Liangyuan understands." Liangyuan nodded.

Ao She turned into a dragon and flew into the air. Fortunately, the people in Jin'an County were all ordinary people, and there were no strangers. Naturally, no one discovered his identity. After returning to the prison, Ao She took care of him without anyone noticing. The prisoner who took his place was sent back to his cell.

Liu Yu never expected that Ao She was the Long Prince, so she was still worried. On the other hand, Liu Yucheng was not unhappy about Liu Yu releasing Zhao Rulian, although he could not let others They know Zhao Rulian, but this seems to be the secret between their father and daughter. After all, Zhao Rulian is an immortal and looks so young. If others see Zhao Rulian, they will know that Zhao Rulian is Liu Yu’s mother. , of course there would be problems, so Zhao Rulian hid during the day and would not come out until late at night. What made Liu Yu even more surprised was that Liu Yucheng was not busy with his own business, but actually worried about his own marriage. In one day, there were more than four or five matchmakers in Liu Mansion.

Zhao Rulian saw that Liu Yu had not rested late at night, so he entered Liu Yu's room. "Xiaoyu, what are you thinking about? Why don't you rest?"

"Mother..." Liu Yu turned around and saw Zhao Rulian, and helped Zhao Rulian onto the stool. "I didn't think anything of it."

"You can't hide it from your mother." Zhao Rulian smiled, took Liu Yu's hand and asked, "Are you wondering why your father is suddenly anxious about your marriage?"

Liu Yu nodded: "Mom, dad did this..." Before Liu Yu could finish asking, Zhao Rulian replied: "Your dad did this for your own good."

"for me?"

"Um."

"How do you say this?"

"Yesterday I asked your father. Your father said that a Taoist priest came to the Liu family back then. It was the Taoist priest who did some tricks for you and that's why he took the money. The Taoist priest didn't spread the news that you had immortal blood on your body, but Hidden your immortal energy, as for how to unlock it, the Taoist priest didn't say anything, he only said eight words."

"Which eight characters?"

"Destined to marry, return the person's true body."

"Mom, what does that Taoist priest mean?"

"Mom doesn't know either. In my opinion, that Taoist priest is indeed an expert. Otherwise, there is no way to hide your immortal energy. Even mother can't do it. After discussing with your father, I feel that what he meant by that sentence should be to wait until you When you get married, your immortal energy will be restored." Zhao Rulian answered truthfully, as a deity, her magic power is indeed weak, it can only be said that it is much more convenient than mortals, and even the Taoist priest cannot tell what method he used.

After hearing this, Liu Yu hurriedly asked: "So dad is in a hurry to marry me off?"

"Well, although your father is evil, over the past eighteen years, I can see that he loves you very much, so I agree with him to do this. Only in this way will you be protected by the immortal energy and your appearance will not fade with the years. If you lose, you will not die."

"But mother, I don't want to..."

"Do you not want to regain your immortal power, or do you not want to marry someone else?" Zhao Rulian saw Liu Yu's thoughts, patted Liu Yu's hand and sighed: "Xiaoyu, mother knows that you like that Mr. Nao, but the government has Convicting him proves that he did make a mistake." Zhao Rulian was also conflicted in her heart. The reason she wanted to save Ao She at that time was because she thought she could immediately restore her daughter's immortal power so that she could take them with her. Now It seems that there is no need for this. Since Liu Yucheng loves Liu Yu, there is no need for Zhao Rulian to separate their father and daughter. She also agreed to Liu Yucheng.

Liu Yu sat next to Zhao Rulian, looked at Zhao Rulian, and whispered: "Mom, I believe Mr. Nao is not that kind of person. If I hadn't begged him, he wouldn't have recognized him. It's all mine." It hurt Mr. Nao."

"Xiaoyu, don't think so much. Now that he has admitted it, there is no way to turn back. Besides, he will be executed in two days. It will be too late."

"What?!" When Liu Yu heard this, he lost his soul. When he heard that Ao She would be executed, Liu Yu felt as if he had done something wrong. After all, it was a human life, and Ao She was his favorite. Liu Yu couldn't accept it for a moment and fainted when she thought that Ao She had feelings for her, but she was "unkind" to Ao She.

After Zhao Rulian helped Liu Yu to bed, he sighed and left Liu Yu's room...

Early the next morning, Liu Yu secretly went to Zhao Rulian and begged: "Mother, please, no matter what, you must save Mr. Bao."

"Xiaoyu, it's not that mother doesn't want to help you, it's that she can't help you."

"Why? Mom, aren't you a fairy? You must have a way to save Mr. Bao."

"It's true that Mom is a fairy, but if Mom uses fairy magic to rob the magic field and other important things, if the news reaches the sky, she will definitely be taken back by the Heavenly Court. At that time, our mother and daughter..." Zhao Rulian frowned, Heavenly Court these The failure to find her in the year was due to Heavenly Court's negligence. It was also because she had not done any evil deeds in the human world and had not made any big noises. If she said that she was going to rob the law field, she could not guarantee that Heavenly Court would not know about it. When the fairy boy came to find her, she would definitely She can't stay in the human world any longer. In the unlikely event that the Heavenly Court accuses her of being greedy for the human world, if the Heavenly Court knows that she still has a daughter in the human world, her daughter will be affected. Zhao Rulian doesn't want to show up.

When Liu Yu heard this, he panicked: "Then what should I do? I can't let Master Nao get into trouble."

"This..." Zhao Rulian was also thinking about it. After much deliberation, it seemed that there was someone who could help Liu Yu. "By the way, Xiaoyu, can Mr. Liang you met last time help?"

"Master Liang..." Liu Yu actually forgot about Master Liang. Yes, Master Liang is investigating the pirate case. He has enough power. If he wants to help, he will definitely be able to help Liu Yu, but Liu Yu doesn't know Whether Master Liang is willing or not, it was Master Liang who gave him the idea at that time. Although he didn’t know why Master Liang wanted to help him, Liu Yu could see that Master Liang did not look like a bad person. There was only one thing that Master Liang seemed to have some concerns about this case. It is true that the end justifies the means, otherwise he would not have thought of such a sinister method. No matter what, this is a hope, and Liu Yu plans to give it a try.

In the afternoon, Liu Yu prepared gifts and arrived at the Yingfu Inn where Mr. Liang was staying. After being informed, she successfully met Mr. Liang. As soon as she entered the door, she saluted: "Little girl, pay homage to Mr. Liang."

"Miss Liu, why are you so polite? Please sit down." Liang Yuan put on his casual clothes and felt much more relaxed. He looked more like a young master, without the majesty he had when wearing official uniforms.

After Liu Yu put the gift on the tea table, she smiled slightly: "The little girl came here to thank Mr. Liang for his help so that my father could clear his name. This small gift is a change of heart for the little girl. I hope Mr. Liang doesn't want it. dislike."

"Miss Liu, you're welcome. Since Liang is an official, of course he aims to find out the facts of the case and your father is innocent. Of course, Liang can't just sit idly by and do nothing. This is just a small effort." Liangyuan laughed.

Upon hearing this, Liu Yu hurriedly said: "Master Liang will definitely not let innocent people suffer injustice, right?"

"Of course."

"In this case, I beg you, Mr. Liang, to thoroughly investigate the pirate case and ensure that you are innocent." Liu Yu knelt down without hesitation.

Liangyuan looked at Liu Yu who was kneeling in front of him, and was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Ao She would talk about it. Liu Yu actually had such a sense of friendship and was willing to intercede with him for Ao She after his father was released from prison. Liang Yuan Knowing that something was not good, if he agreed, then the bet would be lost. Once he lost, he would not be able to stay in the world to take revenge. After thinking about it, he came up with a plan, and he helped Liu up with a smile. Jade.

"Although Liang doesn't know why Miss Liu insists on denying this man's innocence, for Miss Liu's sake, Liang agrees to re-investigate the case."

Liu Yu raised her head and looked at Liang Yuan happily: "Master Liang, are you telling the truth?"

"Liang Mou means what he says." Liang Yuan replied with a smile.

Liu Yu thanked him hurriedly: "Thank you, Lord Liang. I believe that Lord Liang will be able to find out the truth!"
