Chapter 58 The Purpose of Misty Marriage

I kept having nightmares at night. Mu Yunliang was full of texture and bulging eyes that shocked me and sweated coldly. I also dreamed of the bloody grimace laughing wildly.

When I woke up, I covered my lower abdomen with a conditioned reflex. The warmth from there made me feel a little more at ease. It was early morning, and my brother and the others were still dealing with skinning and soul-scaling. My brother sent a message saying that uncle Cheng Su had arrived overnight to deal with the matter.

I sat up and hugged my knees, trying to calm down. The bed beside me moved gently, Jiang Qiyun lay on his side, staring at me with stern eyes.

"You are here... Is there any way to prevent me from seeing these things?" I smiled bitterly. Such a terrifying corpse was too terrifying.

"I can't see? Then aren't you more afraid? The unknown is the most terrifying thing." Jiang Qiyun said lightly.

My hands were unconsciously stroking them on my lower abdomen. This may be a nature after pregnancy, which was completely unconscious. I sighed and said, "I am always so frightened. I am worried that I will scare my child. People say that when I am pregnant, I should look at more beautiful things. What I see is either ghosts or blood corpses..."

Jiang Qiyun's eyes darkened and said in a deep voice: "He is not that weak. If the ghost had just hit you, he would block it. Now it is just a hundred evils. When he takes shape, the evil energy that hits him will be destroyed by him. At that time--"

He paused, frowned and didn't say anything further.

"Then I don't have to be afraid? Even if evil spirits hit me, he will protect his mother?" I smiled comfortingly.

Jiang Qiyun's face was silent. His eyes were too complicated when he looked at me. The look of compassion flashed by. I don't know if it was wrong. He seemed to keep silent about certain issues.

At the next day's ceremony of worship of the gods, everyone wore Taoist robes and hair crowns, and I was no exception. After my brother put on Taoist robes, it took a long time to get my hair done.

"Everyone says that hair is long and short. Xiao Qiao, please consider shortening your hair? It's all so big that you're not bothering, you don't bother!" He inserted his hairpin and patted me on the back and said, "Okay, fairy, please go down the mountain."

I smiled and found it funny to see my dress. I ran to Jiang Qiyun for a while and asked, "Sir Emperor, do you find it funny to have so many people dressed like this to celebrate your birthday?"

Jiang Qiyun's mouth tilted slightly: "It's boring to see too much."

My heart was twitched by his indifferent chuckling. In my opinion, the thousand years of years are unimaginable. I guess he is not very interested in anything.

"Let's go, Xiao Qiao!" my brother urged.

I used to think that Taoist robes were worn by uncles and men, and it would be better to have a few white beards, which looked like a fairy-like Taoist robes. Until I saw Situ Lin, I realized that Taoist robes could also be worn with fashion flavor.

"Fellow Daoist, are you here to walk the catwalk?" I couldn't help but tease him.

He usually wears a suit and tie, but suddenly he changed into this outfit. He also felt a little awkward and asked in a low voice: "Isn't it weird?"

I shook my head with a smile on my face, listening to the Fengdu treasure troupe. I can recite this treasure in my dreams, great compassion, great sage, great compassion... Is he really a compassionate god?

At least he is not very compassionate towards me. Maybe I have too many fantasies about the title of wife. Maybe I am giving my body and mind to someone who should not be delivered. How could there be ordinary feelings between me and him?

Seeing so many people worshipping me devoutly, I unconsciously thought of his bad behavior when he was entangled with me. My face became a little hot, so I had to lower my head and hide it as much as possible.

After the sacrifice, the heads of each aristocratic family, school, and masters negotiated behind closed doors in a side hall. I stood behind my brother and felt that these things were not related to me.

Jiang Qiyun didn't seem to want me to intervene. Last time I joked that I went to Huangdao Village to help maintain the magic circle. His posture was as frost-like as I was so scared that I couldn't answer the conversation.

So I just stood there listening, until I heard my name coming out of Mrs. Shen’s mouth.

"...It's enough for the Mu family to be born. Mu Xiaoqiao has two months left? Two months later—"

"Old woman, you are so old, be careful. Can you take some words out of the table and say them?!" My brother interrupted Mrs. Shen without regard for his identity as a junior.

Me? What does it have to do with me? I raised my head in a daze.

There are about forty people in the room, all of whom are involved in maintaining the magic circle. Old Mrs. Shen was yelled by my brother, and her face was so angry that she was so angry that she snorted heavily, and she resisted the urge to continue talking.

Shen Qingrui didn't care about so much, she wanted to have the chance to hit me. She sneered: "Young Master of the Mu family, even if you are the acting head, pay attention to your junior identity. It is already tolerant for all elders to sit here. Don't be too presumptuous and yell at my old lady. You are not qualified yet!"

Her sarcastic gaze fell on me: "Isn't it because of Mu Xiaoqiao that your Mu family can be valued so much? If it weren't for the spiritual fetus in her belly, we would have tolerated your many rude behaviors?"

"Shen Qingrui, some words are karma as soon as they say. Take care of your mouth!" My brother is rarely serious.

I looked at the people in the room, almost everyone was avoiding my gaze. I pulled my brother and asked, "What's going on? What's up to me... Brother, what's your hiding from me?"

Shen Qingrui sneered: "Of course it's your business, otherwise do you think you can live until now? If it weren't for your belly being useful-"

"Okay!" Situ Lin suddenly roared, stood up and stared at Shen Qingrui unhappily and said, "Do I think Miss Xiao Qiao has made a great sacrifice? Why are there anyone attacking her with vicious words? Miss Shen, please pay attention to the tone of your speech."

Shen Qingrui was not polite to me at all. Old Mrs. Shen also turned a blind eye to her. She sneered with fearlessness: "Master Situ, why are you doing so nervous? Those who don't know think she is your child in her belly."

Situ Lin frowned, and a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.

"The so-called "determinal" is determined in the dark. Mu Xiaoqiao's life has long been destined in the dark. What's wrong with saying it? Just like if you hide it from her, you can pretend that the world is peaceful?" Shen Qingrui's arrogant voice sounded.

I took a few deep breaths and looked at my brother. He said with a cold face: "Xiao Qiao, don't glare at me, I just want to find an opportunity to tell you slowly."

I nodded and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you later... Shen Qingrui, can you take a step to speak? I want to hear you."

Shen Qingrui sneered and said, "Okay, I won't cover up my words. Don't cry and complain about me and bullying you... You have a very powerful way of coaxing men. I don't want to be resentful by the men around you."
