The Crown Princess Has a Deadly Destiny
Chapter 27

‘How can they expect to find his body here ?!’

“How do you know about his identity? And why didn't you report it sooner ?!” The officer asked in a serious tone.

Xie Qiao calmly said, “More than half a year ago, I met them when I went down to the mountain. I am not in good health. Thanks to their help, I did not faint in the wilderness. Then, I heard that Master Lu had died. It is said that the body of one person has not been found, some even said to have become a wanted slave. I can't believe it, so I looked it up myself.”

“As I was descending the mountain this time, I passed through the place, and found that the soil was soft and the weeds were growing more fertile than other areas. I want to find out the reason, but I did not expect to dig his body.” Xie Qiao said unhurriedly.

“This guy has become like this. How did you know that it was the body of that servant?” Pei Wanyue asked.

Many people followed him and nodded.

“That's just a set of bones left, and I can't see what he really looks like. How can you know this is it?”

“This is because he has a token on his body. He saved me once before. I thanked him and gave him this little bronze mirror, hoping to help him avoid misfortune. But I did not expect the strength of this bronze mirror to be so small and unable to prevent this misfortune from befalling him.” Xie Qiao opened his mouth and gave a few reasons.

Therefore, he also took out a bronze mirror.

The bronze mirror was only the size of a palm, dark and dirty. It seems like it has been on the ground for a long time.

Xie Qiao had many mirrors like this.

Usually, it is given as a gift to others.

“How could it be dug by chance.” Pei Wanyue felt something was wrong.

‘Although these words sound reasonable, how could there be such a coincidence in this world?’

Xie Qiao looked at him with a smile.

“I... What did I say wrong?” Pei Wanyue looked cautious.

“It was just a coincidence. If Miss Pei feels this is dubious, you can go to the spirit realm and ask her directly. Why was he buried under my feet and found by me?” Xie Qiao said sarcastically.

Pei Wanyue showed an expression as if he had been persecuted.

Suddenly he laughed again, “You officers must be tired of making this trip. After returning, tell the county magistrate and say that it is only a matter of the Moon Water Temple and he will understand.”

The Water Moon Temple? The officer was shocked when he heard his words.

Then he looked at Xie Qiao with shock on his face, “Are you a big disciple of Mo Lingzi from the Water Moon Shrine, that Half-eternal Xie?”

Xie Qiao nodded slightly.

“Because this is Half-Immortal Xie, then it won't be a problem at all. I'm speaking very rudely to you, and offending you. I do not know... have I done anything taboo?” The attitude of this official changed very quickly.

When these words came out, Pei Wanyue was dumbfounded.

“It's okay. The biggest taboo has been triggered by others, and your problem is not big.” Xie Qiao said slowly.

As soon as he said this, the official sighed.

They had long heard of the Water Moon Temple!

In the temple, the true Master, Mo Lingzi, had all along been accurate in all his fortune-telling. The real teacher only had one disciple and he was summoned as a Half-eternal Xie after demonstrating some powerful gifts.

Now, the county magistrate has only been in office for a few months. When he first took office, he had no idea what kind of misfortune he was going through. His elderly mother was seriously ill and bedridden. His illness did not heal until he was taken to the Water Moon Temple directly. His condition has improved since then. Now the old woman was healthy and could probably live for another twenty years!

It was not the first example of this great disciple of the Moon Water Temple digging up a corpse.

Previously, he did fortune-telling to help search for missing persons for the authorities several times. All of these efforts are very accurate.

It was a pity that this pair of teachers and disciples rarely came down from the mountain. Each time the county magistrate had to go to the Moon Water Temple to meet them in person. So they had only heard their names but had never seen them in person before.

‘Seeing on the characteristics of the wise great disciple and the other world, this is exactly as described by the district magistrate!’
