Mu Anxiao watched Wan Sha’s slightly reminiscent expression and said, “You really don’t remember anything before going to hell, do you?”
“I remember,” Wan Sha stated firmly.
“You remember? You remember, yet you find this well so familiar?” Mu Anxiao furrowed her brow.
“Every family has a well like this. Of course, it looks familiar to me.”
All clues vanished with Wan Sha’s statement.
Mu Anxiao was left speechless.
“…”
“Are you speechless?” Wan Sha asked.
Mu Anxiao: “…”
Inside the temple, Feng Qishi heard Mu Anxiao and Wan Sha’s voices from outside and thought, it’s better to wait.
Zeng, however, grew curious about the outside sounds. “Big Brother, who is Mu Anxiao talking to?”
Feng Qishi thought Zeng wasn’t one to meddle in other people’s business. Zeng’s question made Feng Qishi’s expression stiffen slightly. “You should focus on your work.”
“It sounds like a woman’s voice,” Zeng gossiped.
Feng Qishi smiled. “If you’re so curious, find a way to get up there yourself. I’m not letting you stand on my shoulders anymore.”
If it were in the past, Zeng might not have obeyed Mu Anxiao’s command, but because he was in the wrong, he dared not resist and could only compromise. “Okay, I won’t say anything more.”
Feng Qishi asked, “Can you hear their conversation clearly?”
“No, I can’t,” Zeng shook his head.
Feng Qishi didn’t believe Zeng hadn’t heard their conversation clearly, so he deliberately asked, “If you didn’t hear clearly, how did you determine that Mu Anxiao was talking to a woman?”
“I just have a feeling it’s a woman.”
“Maybe it’s a man!” Feng Qishi said.
“No…”
Zeng uttered one word and then suddenly shut his mouth.
Feng Qishi quietly snapped his fingers, intentionally scrambling the sounds and words Zeng had just heard. He asked, “Man or woman?”
“Man.”
“What were they talking about?” Feng Qishi asked deliberately.
“I already said I didn’t hear clearly,” Zeng replied aggrievedly.
“Tell me!” Feng Qishi raised an eyebrow.
Seeing Feng Qishi’s curious expression, Zeng asked, “Big Brother, do you really want to know?”
“Yes.”
“Actually, it’s nothing much, just between us,” Zeng said.
Feng Qishi’s eyes were filled with curiosity.
Zeng organized their conversation. “It sounds like that man was asking for her help, something about…” He paused in thought and continued, “Asking her to help buy some things for a few girls.”
“Is that so?” Feng Qishi was very satisfied with Zeng’s answer and asked again, “Did they say anything else?”
“Big Brother, can’t you hear?”
“I can, but I can’t hear clearly. My hearing isn’t as good as yours, young man,” Feng Qishi said with a smile.
Zeng loved hearing praise, especially from Feng Qishi. He instantly felt he had value. “They aren’t talking now, but I can listen for you.”
“Alright, you go listen by that corner, and I’ll take over.” Feng Qishi reached out and took the feather duster from Zeng’s hand.
“Big Brother, is that really okay?”
In the past, whenever Zeng heard people talking about eavesdropping, he would be rebuked by those beggars because they didn’t like Zeng telling them; they preferred to listen themselves.
Thus, Zeng lost his chance to shine.
Unexpectedly, Feng Qishi was very willing for him to do this, which was also an encouragement to him.
“Of course, it’s okay. Go ahead,” Feng Qishi said.
Zeng excitedly agreed, “Okay.” He turned and ran to the corner.
Using this opportunity, Feng Qishi cast a spell on the wall.
The sounds Zeng heard began to become chaotic. “Big Brother, there are many people outside.”
“Really? Listen closely and tell me later,” Feng Qishi said, then stepped onto the table and began cleaning the spiderwebs from the ceiling beams, while listening to Mu Anxiao and Wan Sha’s conversation outside.
Outside the temple, after a long silence, Mu Anxiao finally angered Wan Sha.
“I’m talking to you, and you’re ignoring me. Aren’t you being too impolite!”
Mu Anxiao said helplessly, “You gave me three days. This is only the first day, and you’ve appeared twice. You’re pushing me,” she said, extending her hand. “Fine, I don’t want to think anymore. You can capture me.”
Wan Sha looked down at Mu Anxiao’s hand and asked, “What are you doing?”
Just now, Mu Anxiao had looked at this area and suddenly thought of Wan Sha. She thought this place was related to Wan Sha’s past; she even thought Wan Sha had lost her memory before going to hell.
Who knew that all her guesses were just her own fantasies!
For her, this was quite a blow!
“I’ve done my best,” Mu Anxiao said.
“What have you done your best at? You haven’t even thought about it yet!”
“I have thought about it, but you’ve denied everything,” Mu Anxiao pointed at Wan Sha.
Wan Sha frowned. “What do you mean by that?”
“Let me ask you again, do you find this well familiar?” Mu Anxiao pointed at the well again.
Under Mu Anxiao’s questioning, Wan Sha helplessly shifted her gaze to the well.
This time, she said nothing.
Mu Anxiao looked at Wan Sha’s profile with disappointment and sighed.
Suddenly, a green light flashed in Wan Sha’s eyes. “I’ve been here.” Saying this, she looked at Mu Anxiao.
Mu Anxiao, seeing the green light in Wan Sha’s eyes, was startled and dropped the broom in her hand.
“You’ve been here?” she asked.
“Yes.” Wan Sha nodded, then frowned deeply like Mu Anxiao initially had. “Why does my head hurt?”
At this moment, Mu Anxiao also noticed that Wan Sha seemed a bit off, especially her eyes, which made Mu Anxiao feel fearful.
“Your head hurts?” she asked with a trembling voice.
The moment Mu Anxiao spoke, Wan Sha’s head suddenly began to ache violently, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Seeing Wan Sha’s state, Mu Anxiao hurried forward and asked, “Are you alright?” As she spoke, she grabbed Wan Sha’s arm.
Unexpectedly, Wan Sha suddenly acted as if possessed, glaring at Mu Anxiao’s eyes. “I’ll kill you.” After saying this, she grabbed Mu Anxiao’s wrist.
Mu Anxiao froze and asked, “What are you doing?”
Inside the temple, Feng Qishi heard that the situation was not good and quickly put down the feather duster, jumped off the table, and turned to look at Zeng, who had his back to him. “I’m going to the latrine.”
“Okay,” Zeng replied without looking back.
Then, Feng Qishi retracted his gaze, ran out of the temple gate rapidly, looked at Mu Anxiao, who was surrounded by green light, widened his eyes, waved his hand behind him, and the temple gate closed.
Wan Sha’s ears twitched, and she looked at Feng Qishi, who was running towards them. “If you dare to come over, I’ll kill her.”
“If you dare to kill her, I will make your soul scatter,” Feng Qishi said coldly.
“Lin Xian, you’re treating me like this for this woman?” Wan Sha roared in anger.
