“Boss, the millet porridge is ready. Can I bring it in now?” Ying’er’s voice came from outside the room.

Su Xiaoxiao said without changing her expression, “Come in.”

Ying’er pushed the door open and entered. She looked at Wei Ting, who was sitting at the head of the bed, and said in surprise, ‘Young Master recovered so quickly. You can already sit up!”

Previously, many injured people came to the medical center. They were not as seriously injured as Wei Ting, but they lay for ten days to half a month.

Su Xiaoxiao crossed her arms. “Isn’t that because my medical skills are brilliant?”

“Boss’s medical skills are the best!” Ying’er put down the millet porridge with a smile. “Young Master is also very strong!”

Su Xiaoxiao was both miffed and amused. “This girl really doesn’t offend anyone!”

Wei Ting’s appetite was not good. He could not eat after eating half a bowl.

Thinking of something, Su Xiaoxiao said, “By the way, Wei Ting, I have something to ask you.”

Wei Ting said, “The first of July.”

Su Xiaoxiao’s face darkened.

Wei Ting smiled coldly. “You’re so impatient. Are you afraid that I’ll run away?” It was already the middle of May. The first of July was a month away.

Su Xiaoxiao crossed her arms and said seriously, “Ask again! About the date proposed by the Grand Astronomer!”

Wei Ting asked seriously, “The Grand Astronomer chose two auspicious days — the end of October or the first of July?”

Su Xiaoxiao decisively chose the latter. “The first of July!”

Wait… this guy tricked her!

Wei Ting couldn’t help but laugh. He accidentally pulled on his wound and immediately couldn’t laugh anymore.

She was in embarrassment, and he was in pain. They were even.

Su Xiaoxiao could let go. Her face was not important. Her eight-pack was the most important.

At this thought, Su Xiaoxiao quickly brought over the remaining half bowl of porridge. “Eat more. You’ll recover quickly.”

Wei Ting wondered, “Why do I feel that you have ill intentions?”

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “But don’t you ancient… ahem, don’t people in the capital believe in ghosts and gods? July is a ghost month, especially after the Ghost Festival. It’s said that the undead will return to the human world. Is it really fine to get married in July?”

Su Xiaoxiao didn’t care, but she didn’t believe in this.

Wei Ting looked at the ceiling and said faintly, “Only in this way can the undead of my Wei family attend our wedding.”

Su Xiaoxiao mused, “Why do I feel that it’s so cool?”

The truth was that although July was called the Ghost Month, the first day of July this year was indeed an auspicious day calculated by Sikong Yun. Su Xiaoxiao got back to the topic. “By the way, Wei Ting, I have a question for you.”

Wei Ting said, “Ask.”

Su Xiaoxiao was puzzled. “How did you know that MO Guiyuan would definitely go to Pear Blossom Lane?”

Wei Ting said, “There’s a passageway in Pear Blossom Lane that leads to the second peach forest.”

Su Xiaoxiao was stunned. “The second peach forest?”

Wei Ting shook his head. “It’s not that kind of big peach forest. It’s a small stronghold of the White Lotus Society. All the deployments needed to evacuate are there.”

There was a lot of information in these words. Su Xiaoxiao touched her chin. “When did you discover it?”

“Before entering the peach forest this time.” Wei Ting paused. “My mother told me.”

“Did she get this information from Madam Guo too?” Su Xiaoxiao already knew that Qin Canglan’s route was a map provided by Madam Wei.

Wei Ting nodded.

Back then, MO Guiyuan realized that this daughter was not under his control, so he arranged for Madam Guo to marry into the capital. Madam Guo was loyal to MO Guiyuan. If not for Madam Wei using Guo Huan’s life to threaten her, Madam Guo would never have betrayed MO Guiyuan.

Of course, Madam Wei had only written an empty cheque. It was impossible for her to save Guo Huan.

Madam Wei, who had been monitored and threatened by her biological father for half her life, finally gave MO Guiyuan a fatal blow.

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Where’s the passageway to Pear Blossom Lane? Don’t tell me it’s at our house.”

Wei Ting paused. “At Ling Yun’s residence.”

Su Xiaoxiao was slightly stunned. “Ling Yun…”

Wei Ting understood what she was surprised about and said, “Ling Yun moved here three years ago. That secret passage existed long ago. He might have just accidentally rented that house.”

Su Xiaoxiao said thoughtfully, “Since it’s a house with secrets, why was it rented out? Don’t you think it’s strange?”

Wei Ting analyzed, “Perhaps this is the only way to hide it. If it was really someone from the White Lotus Society who lived there, they would have been found out long ago.”

“That’s true.” However, Su Xiaoxiao felt that something was wrong.

She couldn’t figure it out, so she decided not to think about it. She would ask Ling Yun next time.

Su Xiaoxiao continued, “There’s one more thing I don’t understand. Why does the White Lotus Society want to plant peach trees? Why not lotus flowers?” Wei Ting said, “Perhaps it’s because… people can’t live underwater?” Su Xiaoxiao glared at him.

Wei Ting laughed and pulled at his wound again. He gasped in pain.

Wei Ting recalled, “My grandmother loved to plant peaches. I heard from my brothers that there were large peach forests in our maternal family in Lingnan. When my grandmother was alive, she would get someone to send her to the capital every year to personally plant peaches.” Su Xiaoxiao hummed. “Was MO Guiyuan lovestruck?”

Wei Ting sighed softly. “Who knows?”

Perhaps it was just self-affectation.

“Lord!” Yuchi Xiu rushed in energetically, poured himself a cup of tea, and drank it in one gulp. “Slave Xiu has already been buried. I specially found a treasure land. I’m so tired!”

“You buried Slave Xiu?” Su Xiaoxiao was a little surprised.

Wei Ting pondered and said, “Slave Xiu was killed by MO Guiyuan because he refused to kill me. Moreover, I keep feeling that the person he knows might be related to the Wei family.”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Are you talking about the other owner of the iron bell he

Wei Ting nodded. “Before he died, he told me a name, Lord Ghostfear.”

Su Xiaoxiao pondered and said, “Lord Ghostfear? This is more like a Jianghu title. ”

Wei Ting said seriously, “Lord Ghostfear should be the owner of the other iron bell. My father found someone to specially make this iron bell. Only us brothers have it.”

Su Xiaoxiao looked at him and said, “You suspect that person is one of your brothers?”

Wei Ting said, “Back then, when I rushed to the border to collect the corpses of my grandfather and my father, other than my grandfather’s corpse hanging on the frozen city gate tower because he was beheaded and not rotten, the rest… were thrown into the wilderness. They were more or less unrecognizable. My sixth brother was almost decomposed, leaving only a set of armor and unassembled remains. But since my sixth brother came back alive, those remains must be someone else’s. I’m thinking…”

Su Xiaoxiao finished for him. “Could there be another corpse that didn’t belong?”

This guess was not unreasonable. It was even very reliable.

If possible, Wei Ting hoped that everyone was alive, but he also understood that this was impossible. It was already a miracle that Sixth Brother could live.

Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and said seriously, “Wei Ting, let’s do an autopsy..”
