After she became a county magistrate, she took the ghost to investigate the case

Chapter 190 Being wronged

Looking to his side again, Sun Yongan, who had been following him closely, was now running far away from him.

"No, why are you so far away from me? I can't kill you." Xu Yingying felt helpless.

Sun Yongan remained where he was. When he heard Xu Yingying's words, he just curled his lips and didn't move at all. "Come on, I don't want to be saved yet. The scriptures you said have a weakening effect on me. I don't want to be sent away by you now. My work is not over yet."

Xu Yingying was speechless, she had not expected that even a fierce ghost like Sun Yongan would be afraid of things like scriptures. Staring at the black fog in front of her again, Xu Yingying suddenly found that her skills had improved a lot. Before, Sun Yongan was not afraid of this kind of chanting to transcend, because it was a great test of the person's Taoism, and only those masters could make fierce ghosts so afraid. Thinking of this, Xu Yingying's originally depressed mood suddenly dissipated a lot.

Seeing that it was already past noon, Xu Yingying simply packed up her things and returned to the county magistrate's mansion.

Seeing Xu Yingying coming in from the door, Li Siqi hurriedly went to greet her. Before Xu Yingying could say anything, Li Siqi asked, "Where have you been so early in the morning? I went to look for you this morning, but you were not in the room. If you hadn't come back, I would have asked Huang Shaohua to send someone to look for you."

Xu Yingying realized that when she left the house in the morning, Li Siqi had not woken up yet, and she had forgotten to ask the servants to inform him. Xu Yingying, who had subconsciously wanted to retort, suddenly had a sudden inspiration and was not angry. Instead, she said apologetically, "Sorry, I forgot to ask the servants to tell you this morning that I went to the gathering place of resentful ghosts. It just so happens that I have time these days, so I plan to go there often to pray for the souls to be reborn. Otherwise, I don't know when I will delay it."

Li Siqi finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Li Siming is still in Jun County. If it is not necessary, try not to leave the house. If you want to leave the house, remember to tell me and I will go with you. Otherwise, if you face Li Siming, you don't know what he can do."

"I understand." Xu Yingying responded obediently.

"You left early in the morning, so I guess you didn't have a good breakfast. Come, I've asked someone to prepare lunch. After lunch, you can have a rest." Having said that, Li Siqi pulled Xu Yingying to the restaurant without further ado.

Looking at the table filled with delicacies in front of her, Xu Yingying looked at Li Siqi in shock, "Your Highness, I am a human, not a pig. I can't eat these things."

Li Siqi said nonchalantly: "Just eat as much as you want, I can take care of the rest myself."

Seeing Li Siqi like this, Xu Yingying stopped worrying about it. As Li Siqi said, she was indeed hungry now, and everything she ate tasted delicious.

In the following days, Xu Yingying kept running between the gathering place and the county magistrate's mansion. Seven days later, the vengeful ghosts in the formation were finally completely exorcised by Xu Yingying. Sun Yongan, who returned to Xu Yingying's side again, felt something strange when he saw the clean scene in front of him.

Xu Yingying glanced at him sideways and said, "Why, are you feeling sad?" These resentful ghosts were all caused by Sun Yongan, and she was now cleaning up the mess for Sun Yongan.

"How is that possible?" Sun Yongan smiled awkwardly and waved his hands repeatedly, fearing that Xu Yingying would be unhappy and beat him up again. He had experienced how terrible this woman in front of him was.

"No best." Xu Yingying snorted coldly. After standing next to the formation for a while, Xu Yingying looked at a cave not far ahead and wanted to go down and take a look.

Thinking of this, Xu Yingying also walked towards that direction, but before she took a few steps, she was grabbed by Li Siqi and could not move forward even half a step.

She turned to look at Li Siqi, her eyes revealing confusion, "Why are you pulling me?"

"Where are you going?" Li Siqi's tone was a little nervous.

Xu Yingying pointed at the hole and said, "Isn't it obvious? I want to go down and take a look. There should be something in there."

Unexpectedly, this time, Li Siqi not only did not let go of his hand, but pulled it even harder, causing Xu Yingying's wrist to hurt.

"No, you can't go down." Li Siqi objected firmly.

"why?"

"Do you know what's in there? It's a small and completely unfamiliar place. Are you going to die by going down like this?" Li Siqi's voice was very cold, as if he was scolding Xu Yingying.

Xu Yingying was stunned. She hadn't seen Li Siqi like this for a long time. Suddenly, she felt very uncomfortable. Grievance and sadness surged into her heart at the same time, and her face turned ugly.

"Why?" Xu Yingying began to struggle.

Li Siqi did not say anything, but he seemed determined not to let Xu Yingying go down, so he simply increased the strength of his hands. No matter how hard Xu Yingying struggled, she could not break free. Instead, she was picked up by Li Siqi around the waist and left that place directly.

It was not until they returned to the county magistrate's mansion that Li Siqi released the shackles on Xu Yingying's hand, but Xu Yingying's wrist was already red. Looking at the glaring red mark, Li Siqi felt a little annoyed why he used so much force. He wanted to apologize to Xu Yingying, but Xu Yingying went straight back to her room without even giving Li Siqi a glance.

Li Siqi chased after her and wanted to say something, but was locked outside by Xu Yingying. He couldn't just break in, so he had to wander around outside.

But no matter how much Li Siqi said, Xu Yingying remained unmoved. The sky gradually darkened and candles were lit in the house, but Xu Yingying still did not open the door for Li Siqi.

Li Siqi had no choice but to return to his room and plan to go find Xu Yingying the next day.

As for Xu Yingying, she sat on the bed and felt more and more aggrieved the more she thought about it. She didn't understand why Li Siqi spoke so harshly to her and hurt her. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.

Perhaps because she was too tired, Xu Yingying fell asleep while thinking.

The next day, she was awakened by Li Siqi's knocking on the door. She was still a little dazed and was annoyed by Li Siqi's noise. She subconsciously got out of bed, opened the door, and looked at Li Siqi unhappily.

At this moment, she realized what had happened between them. She wanted to close the door, but Li Siqi held it tightly. Xu Yingying couldn't persuade Li Siqi at all, so she gave up and sat on the couch by the window with a cold face.

"Are you still angry?" Li Siqi asked cautiously. As he asked, he approached Xu Yingying and took out a small food box from behind him and placed it in front of Xu Yingying.

But Xu Yingying turned her head away in a huff, looking up at the sky and down at the ground, but not at Li Siqi.

Li Siqi was not annoyed when he saw this, but just coaxed her more carefully, "I'm sorry for what happened yesterday. I was wrong. Please be magnanimous and forgive me this time. Look, I even brought you your favorite dessert."

Xu Yingying then glanced at Li Siqi, but quickly turned away, still refusing to speak.
