Chapter 67 Root Cause
Jiang Yu and the others moved forward. The people around them looked up at them in sadness and made a tacit understanding to make way for them.
Chu Qingyue looked a little tired. She was holding a pen in one hand and a ledger in the other. She barely managed to gather her energy to talk to the people in front of her. There were also a few accountants sitting in the room. They were holding pens and papers like her, speaking softly. Jiang Yu listened to the conversation with the people in front of him and realized that they were asking about the situation at home.
Qin Yin was beside her, her face was still a little pale, and there was not much blood on her lips. She raised her eyes and looked at Jiang Yu, showing her a gentle smile.
Jiang Yu smiled slightly, nodded towards her, and walked all the way to Song Hui.
Song Hui and Song Lian, these two people said they were helping, but in fact they couldn't do much. One didn't know anything about the aftermath, and the other had an identity and couldn't interfere too much in Lingdu's internal affairs.
Jiang Yu looked at the two people, and just when he was about to call someone, Chu Qingyue suddenly stood up, causing her "Father" to get stuck in her throat.
Chu Qingyue had just finished registering the information of a commoner, handed the pen and account book in Qin Yin's hands, walked towards them, and stopped in front of Jiang Yu: "This matter——"
She leaned over and bowed, "Thank you so much, fellow Taoists."
As soon as she bowed, the people in the room also looked over and wiped away the tears on their faces. Men and women, all with long yellow hair and young men, followed Chu Qingyue and bowed to them all.
"Thank you, Immortal."
"Thank you so much, little immortals."
"Thank you to my brothers and sisters."
"."
The thanks came one after another.
Jiang Yu quickly stepped forward, supporting Chu Qingyue who was about to bow down, and turned to look at the group of people. Yuan Heng and Sang Yang had already gone to help someone, but as soon as they helped one up, the other bowed down again, leaving them at a loss. They subconsciously looked to the two elders in the sect for help, but it was Song Hui and Song Lian who Regardless of his position, he slowly and firmly avoided their eyes.
Someone was helped up by Wei Xu, holding the corner of his sleeve to wipe the tears on his face. Although he was still in the pain of losing his loved one, he still had to force himself to show a kind smile to Wei Xu.
Wei Xu turned away awkwardly.
"Thank you so much, immortal." Jiang Yu heard him say to Wei Xu and shed tears as he spoke, "If it weren't for these immortals, my youngest son might not be able to return home."
Jiang Yu's throat was slightly choked, and he couldn't tell what he was feeling at this moment.
"He originally had two sons." Chu Qingyue, who was supported by Jiang Yu, noticed her gaze and followed her attention to the man. After recognizing him, he whispered in her ear, "The two children disappeared together. The eldest son was tortured and killed in front of the younger son. The older one did not come back, but the younger one did, but because of the stimulation, he locked himself in the room all day long, refused to eat or drink, and refused to see anyone. He didn’t know when he would recover. "
Jiang Yu turned his head to look at her. She had tears in her eyes and sniffed. He still smiled at her and lowered his head to wipe his tears: "All of this is because of me. If I hadn't recognized his true face at the beginning, I would have lured the wolf into the house. , and now it won’t—”
"No." Jiang Yu interrupted her, "The most unpredictable thing in the world is the human heart. You are not wrong. What is wrong is hearing people's thoughts and evil spirits."
Chu Qingyue was slightly stunned, lowered her head and smiled: "I'm just a little regretful."
It was a pity that she had slept with this man for so many years, and had so many opportunities to discover his secrets, but why didn't she discover it? It was a pity that when she and her uncle met Wen Renhuai in the teahouse, a single thought caused harm to so many people.
"Even if there are all kinds of regrets." Jiang Yu comforted her, "The fundamental reason is Wen Renhuai. Without him, there wouldn't be so many regrets. There is no need for you to blame yourself for the wrong things he did."
And to be fair, Wen Renhuai has been the city lord for so many years. He believes in the evil spirit in his heart, but on the surface he actually does good things for the people. Let alone Chu Qingyue, if he hadn't made the blood sacrifice a secret, There are few people in the world who can find out that he is from the evil side in a short period of time. She originally believed that it was impossible for him to be in cahoots with the evil one.
