525. Perception (four thousand)(1/2)
"Mr. Xibo died?"
At Boyikao Mansion.
When Ye Xiao heard the news, he was stunned for a moment.
This script is a bit wrong. Why did Ji Chang die so early?
Could it be that something happened again?
But to be fair, it seems pretty good that Ji Chang died early, because in this way, Bo Yikao can succeed to the throne earlier. Since he is ready to support Bo Yikao, then Bo Yikao can succeed to the throne earlier is naturally better than later.
Of course, looking at Bo Yikao with a sad face in front of him, Ye Xiao must not be able to express his inner thoughts.
He could only say: "Mr. Ji is absent from the changes. Once the Xibo Hou dies, the burden of the entire Western Zhou Dynasty falls on Mr. Ji. Mr. Ji still needs to cheer up."
Hearing Ye Xiao say this, Bo Yikao said in a low tone: "I know what Brother Ye said, but although my father is old, he has always been in good health, and now he has suddenly left, which is really hard to accept. Therefore, although my father died in his mother's room and the possibility of being murdered is not high, I still want Brother Ye to help see if there is anything strange about it. After all, if someone in the practice harms his father, it may be difficult for ordinary people to notice."
Upon hearing this, Ye Xiao nodded and said, "Mr. Ji is filial, but if you really want to investigate, you don't need to go to Xibohou's mansion. Since Xibohou is dead, his soul will naturally return to the underworld. If I ask someone from the underworld to ask, the truth will be revealed."
Bo Yikao was stunned for a moment.
Can you still do this?
Although he knew that Ye Xiao was a saint disciple and had great supernatural powers, to be honest, because Ye Xiao usually performed very normally, he had never really experienced what Ye Xiao had a great supernatural power. The only time he felt deeply was probably when Ye Xiao conquered the four generals of Deng Zhong in Jinjiling. However, that time, Ye Xiao actually performed very casually, and he conquered Deng Zhong and the other four indifferently, without any big moves at all.
But now, Ye Xiao actually told him that he could contact the underworld directly and asked Ji Chang who had just died in person if there was anything wrong with his death. This undoubtedly made Bo Yikao more deeply understand Ye Xiao's hands and eyes.
There was a little more awe for Ye Xiao in his heart, and Bo Yikao said sincerely: "Since that's the case, then I'll have a lot of brother Ye."
"It's just a matter of raising hands." Ye Xiao said lightly.
Since he agreed to Bo Yikao, Ye Xiao did not delay and directly began to use his relationship with the Black Lotus of Destroyed World to contact the underworld.
However, I can't remember the relationship that I can't use in the underworld. Now that I have used it, Ye Xiao suddenly realized that he hadn't visited Pingxin for a long time.
I secretly decided to visit Pingxin when the matter here comes to an end, but the most urgent thing is to solve Ji Chang's problem first.
Because Ji Chang's affairs were not a big deal, Ye Xiao did not disturb others, but just casually found a Yan Luo who was in charge of this and asked.
Ye Xiao, the second-ranked figure in the Netherworld, spoke, and Yan Luo naturally did not dare to neglect it. He immediately ordered his ghost messenger to find Ji Chang's soul - Ji Chang had just died not long ago, and according to the usual routine, the procedure must have not been completed, and he should have not been reincarnated.
However, what no one expected was that after searching, something was found.
There is no Ji Chang's soul in the underworld.
Ye Xiao was also surprised by this result.
However, he also knew that a Yan Luo would definitely not lie to him, so Ye Xiao comforted Yan Luo who kept accusing him of crimes and went to find Cui Jue, the judge who was in charge of the Book of Life and Death.
Although Cui Jue's position in the underworld is still above the Ten Palaces of Yama, and is slightly weaker than the Five Ghost Emperors, he still dare not neglect Ye Xiao's inquiries.
He immediately took out the Life and Death Book and inquired about Ji Chang's information.
Then he discovered that Ji Chang's life was not over and he had not returned to the underworld.
In other words, Ji Chang is likely not dead yet.
Because if Ji Chang died, he would definitely return to the underworld.
If someone is killed, the records in the Life and Death Book will disappear, because the Book of Life and Death will not record people who are scattered. Now there are Ji Chang's records on the Book of Life and Death, which means that Ji Chang is not scattered.
However, the reason why he is most likely not to die is that there is another possibility, that is, Ji Chang's soul was trapped, so he had no soul to return to the underworld.
There is no way. Although the Life and Death Book is an innate spiritual treasure that records the life, death, longevity and fortune of the three realms, it is impossible for the Life and Death Book to record too detailed. Therefore, in the case of Ji Chang, it is impossible to tell whether he is dead or not from the Life and Death Book alone.
Therefore, Ye Xiao received only a few news in the end - Ji Chang's life was not over, his soul had not yet reached the underworld, and his soul was not scattered.
As for whether Ji Chang is still alive or dead, his soul is detained, I don’t know.
If Ji Chang was confirmed to be dead according to Bo Yikao, then most of his soul had been detained.
After ending his contact with Cui Jue, Ye Xiao looked at Bo Yikao who was waiting in the yard with anticipation, and didn't know how to tell him for a moment.
As if seeing Ye Xiao’s embarrassment, Bo Yikao also took the initiative to ask: “Brother Ye, is there something wrong with it?”
Nodding, Ye Xiao sighed lightly: "Xibohou's soul is not in the underworld."
Bo Yikao was stunned for a moment: "Why is this happening? Don't people return to the underworld after they die?"
Ye Xiao said: "That's good, but if someone directly detains his soul, he will naturally be unable to return to the underworld. Mr. Ji wants to know what the reason for Xibo's death is. Now it seems that Xibo's death is definitely not a normal death."
Hearing Ye Xiao say this, Bo Yikao subconsciously clenched his fists: "So was my father really murdered?"
"It's probably the case." Ye Xiao said: "However, what is the truth of the matter? I have to wait for me to go and see it first. Mr. Ji will lead the way."
He originally didn't want to go to the Xibo Marquis' Mansion to check it out because it would be more convenient to contact the underworld to ask him directly.
But now, since I can't contact Ji Chang himself, I have to go and see if there are any clues on Ji Chang's body.
"Since that's the case, please do it by Brother Ye."
............
Follow Bo Yikao to the Xibo Marquis Mansion. Because of Ji Chang's death, the Xibo Marquis Mansion is now covered with mourning.
The two entered the Marquis' Mansion. Along the way, Ye Xiao also heard a lot of interesting things from the whispers of some servants and maids.
For example, after the Marquis left, the wife had not yet entered the water for this period.
The second young master was so sad that he had fainted from crying several times.
Ye Xiao heard these news and was secretly careful in his heart.
Ji Chang is dead. You said that Tai Si was so sad that she couldn't think of food and food, so that she didn't get into the drip of water. He believed that, but how many times could Ji Fa faint from crying too much because of sadness?
This show is too much!
Not to mention anything else, Bo Yikao, who is by his side, is a filial son. Although he has some prejudice against Ji Chang, he is still very sad after Ji Chang's death. Otherwise, he would not have come to him to find out whether Ji Chang was murdered.
But even so, he didn't see Bo Yikao crying loudly, let alone fainted from crying.
Therefore, Ye Xiao only has one word about what Ji Fa did - false.
However, although he thought Ji Fa was too fake, Ye Xiao did not suspect that Ji Fa killed Ji Chang.
All the current signs show that if Ji Chang died, he would probably die at the hands of a practitioner. Ji Fa should not have contacted any practitioner behind him, otherwise he would not have spent money to ask Deng Zhong and the other two to ambush Bo Yikao.
In this way, Bo Yikao took Ye Xiao all the way to the mourning hall.
The mourning hall was empty, and Ji Fa was said to have fainted from crying again and was carried down by his servants to rest.
Bo Yikao came to Ji Chang's coffin, first knelt on the ground and burned some paper, then stood up and said to Ye Xiao, "It's a blessing, Brother Ye."
Ye Xiao walked to the coffin. Because the coffin was not sealed, he could directly see Ji Chang's body lying in the coffin.
At this time, Ji Chang's body had obviously been burialized. Ji Chang, who was lying in the coffin, looked very peaceful.
However, with Ye Xiao’s current cultivation level, some traces were easily found in Ji Chang.
A little strange appeared in his eyes. Ye Xiao knew very well what these traces mean, but this was completely inconsistent with what he learned.
Because judging from the traces on Ji Chang's corpse, this person was undoubtedly beaten to death on the spot.
It would be fine if it was just like this. After all, Ji Chang was murdered, and the murderer did not want others to use Ji Chang's soul to learn the truth, so it would be normal that he could just lose his soul.
But the problem is that there is also information about Ji Chang on the Life and Death Book, which means that Ji Chang is not scattered.
To sum up, the body in the coffin in front of me was not Ji Chang?
After drawing this conclusion, Ye Xiao didn't know how to tell Bo Yikao for a moment.
"Brother Ye?"
Bo Yikao stood beside Ye Xiao and found that Ye Xiao's expression was a little strange, so he couldn't help but raise his heart and subconsciously called out.
Hearing the sound, Ye Xiao calmed down and turned to Bo Yikao and said, "Mr. Ji, let's talk about it in another place?"
Bo Yikao nodded, and then took Ye Xiao to a remote corner.
"There is no one around, Brother Ye can say it with confidence."
Looking at Bo Yikao with an urgent expression in front of him, Ye Xiao carefully considered the words and said slowly: "If we look at the traces on the corpse alone, the owner of the corpse will undoubtedly be killed by someone..."
"What, my soul is gone? Who is it..."
Seeing that Bo Yikao was about to start, Ye Xiao quickly pressed him down: "Young Master Ji, don't be impatient, I heard that I will finish it first."
Hearing Ye Xiao say this, Bo Yikao seemed to have noticed something else, so he reluctantly suppressed the anger in his heart and listened patiently.
Then he heard Ye Xiao continue, "But, according to the news I learned from the underworld, although Xibohou had no soul to return to the underworld, he had no soul to be scattered, because if it were a person with soul to be scattered, there would be no record of his life and death struggle at all. But now there are records of Xibohou in the life and death book, so Xibohou must have a soul to be scattered."
"In other words, the person in the coffin is not Siberia at all."
"Isn't my father?" Bo Yikao was stunned.
He never expected to find Ye Xiao to help and actually came to such a conclusion.
But if Ji Chang was not in the coffin, would they kneel here and cry?
"Brother Ye, are you sure?" Bo Yikao's voice trembled a little.
There is no way, Ye Xiao’s conclusion was too amazing, and anyone else would probably not be able to accept it for the moment.
Seeing Bo Yikao like this, Ye Xiao patted his shoulder and said, "Mr. Ji, I can understand your feelings, but you must also understand that I am considered professional in this regard and will not be mistaken. The person in the coffin is just a person who looks very similar to Xibo. If Mr. Ji doesn't believe it, you can ask someone to find someone to carefully distinguish it. Since he is not Xibo, even if he is similar, he will have some flaws."
