The black shadow knew he was in the wrong, so he huddled up into a ball with his head in his hands, refusing to speak even if beaten.

Nangong Jiu lost his patience: "You bold monkey, do you think that if you keep silent, this matter will be forgotten?

Judging from your cultivation, it is already quite high. You could have cultivated well and achieved immortality. Why did you do such a wicked thing?"

His identity was revealed, and the black shadow had no choice but to raise his head and kneel down.

“I am a monkey spirit who has been practicing in the mountains for thousands of years, and I have never done anything evil before.

Because I am about to pass the thunder tribulation, and I am afraid of failing in my ascension and dying, I resorted to this trick..."

"Are you afraid of failing in your ascension and dying, so you just take other people's lives?

Do you think no one knows about the evil things you have done?

I tell you, the way of heaven knows very well. Even if we don’t catch you, heaven will strike you to death when you ascend!

You could have ascended normally, and with your level of cultivation, it wouldn't be a big problem, but you are destroying your own life."

"Please forgive me this time!

Although I took the lives of several people, they were not good people. And afterwards, I gave their families enough compensation to live comfortably."

"Oh? Is there anything else?"

"If you don't believe it, you can go and verify it. The people are just spreading rumors."

"So what's going on tonight? Don't you still want to eat me?"

"I was confused for a moment!"

Grandma’s!

You want to eat me just because you are confused?

This baby is a meatball made of meat, anyone can take a bite?

"What a moment of confusion!" Nangong Jiu was so angry that his chest heaved up and down.

"If I were a child from an ordinary family, I would have been eaten by you by now."

Nangong Jiu stretched out his hand, and the monkey spirit's body moved uncontrollably in front of Nangong Jiu.

The monkey spirit was terrified.

"Who are you anyway? What do you want to do?"

"Read your memory. If you lie, I will turn you into ashes." Nangong Jiu was too lazy to pay attention to it.

Xiao Wang sneered: "Her identity would scare you to death if I told you!"

After a while, Nangong Jiu let go of the monkey spirit.

"You really didn't lie! So, I'll give you a chance to be reborn as a monkey after death. I hope you'll practice hard next time and learn from your mistakes!"

After saying this, he clapped his hands, and the monkey spirit instantly fell to the ground and died. His spirit flew back to the mountains to be reincarnated.

Nangong Jiu clapped his hands: "Let's go, go back to sleep!"

"Your Majesty, what should we do with this stinky monkey?"

"Take it back, and have the shopkeeper hand it over to the government office tomorrow so that they can make it public and calm the people's panic."

Inn.

Nangong Yunxue waited and waited, but Nangong Jiu didn't come back, so she stood up and wanted to go out to look for him.

Liu Hao pulled her back in time: "Xue'er, calm down.

With Jiu'er's identity and ability, and Xiao Wang and Xiao Xing, how could ordinary evil spirits do anything to them? Just sit down and wait patiently.

Don't worry, everything will be fine."

"I understand the truth. But I just feel uneasy. I'm afraid something might happen to her."

Midnight.

There was a knock on the door of the inn: "Toot, cool!"

"It's Jiu'er who's back!"

Nangong Yunxue and Liu Hao opened the door in surprise.

Outside the door, Xiao Wang was carrying Nangong Jiu and Xiao Xing was holding the monkey spirit.

"Jiu'er, caught?"

Xiao Wang carried Nangong Jiu into the house. After Xiao Xing shook the monkey spirit off the ground, he flew back to Nangong Jiu's waist.

Nangong Yunxue was stunned for a moment, then quickly picked up Nangong Jiu.

"Jiu'er, tell us what's going on?"

[Mother, Uncle Hao, the one causing the trouble is not some evil spirit, but a monkey that has transformed into a spirit.

He was about to pass the tribulation and ascend to heaven, but was afraid of failure and being struck by lightning, so he wanted to eat some human brains and hearts to improve his cultivation...】

Liu Hao looked at the monkey on the ground and said, "I've seen many monkeys, but this is the first time I've seen one as big as this."

[It is a monkey spirit that has been cultivating for thousands of years.] Nangong Jiu yawned.

[Tomorrow morning, give it to the shopkeeper, and have him report it to the authorities, saying that the evil spirit has been eliminated, and let the people resume their normal lives.]

Liu Hao nodded: "Leave it to me."

[Mother, I'm so sleepy. I'm going to sleep.]

Nangong Yunxue carried Nangong Jiu, who was dozing off on her shoulder, back to the room. As Xiao Wang followed them, he pointed at the shopkeeper and the waiter with his paw.

The shopkeeper and the waiter woke up and found Liu Hao and the monkey on the ground. They asked in surprise, "Sir, what is this?"

"This is the evil spirit that you are talking about. It is actually a monkey that has become a spirit through cultivation.

You should hand it over to the government tomorrow, and have them issue a notice saying that the evil spirit has been eliminated, so that the people can resume their normal lives. "

Liu Hao said this as he showed his identity badge.

After the shopkeeper saw clearly, he was so frightened that he immediately knelt down and kowtowed: "I was blind and didn't know it was His Highness who came."

"Get up. These ten taels of silver are your reward." Liu Hao took out ten taels of silver from his purse and handed them to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper waved his hands repeatedly to refuse: "Your Highness is helping the people get rid of harm, how dare I ask for a reward?"

"Take it, you deserve it for what you did."

"Thank you, Your Highness!" The shopkeeper bowed and escorted Liu Hao to the guest room.

In the guest room, Nangong Jiu had been tossing and turning until midnight, and had fallen into a deep sleep when he returned to the room.

Nangong Xue washed her face, hands and feet with warm water, covered her with a thin quilt, and let her sleep comfortably.

Then he walked out of the guest room, and Liu Hao was indeed waiting outside.

"Brother Hao, it's getting late. We've been tired all day. You should take a rest first. I'll go take a rest too."

Liu Hao smiled and nodded: "Well, go ahead, you can sleep a little longer in the morning, we can leave later."

"No, it's the same if you sleep in the car. Don't delay the trip."

"Okay then. I'll call you then."

Nangong Jiu slept very soundly this time.

When we woke up, it was already noon. The carriage had traveled dozens of miles and everyone was stopping at a roadside restaurant to eat.

"Beep!" Nangong Jiu opened his eyes and saw Liu Hao.

"Jiu'er, are you awake? It's time to eat. I ordered meatballs and porridge for you."

Nangong Yunxue washed her face and hands.

When he heard that it was meatballs, Nangong Jiu's eyes lit up and he reached out for it: "Meat..."

Nangong Yunxue used chopsticks to split an egg-sized meatball into two, put one half in her hand, and put the other half into the porridge and crushed it with a spoon.

He also reminded her: "Eat in small bites, don't choke. If you choke, I won't give you any more food in the future."

Nangong Jiu nodded, held the food in his two little hands and started chewing it.

Judging from the tacit cooperation between mother and daughter, it has obviously become a habit.

Liu Hao nodded as he watched: "Jiu'er is such a worry-free child."

"Yes, her biggest hobby is eating. As long as we solve her eating problem, she will be satisfied."

"That's easy. I'll just find a few chefs with good cooking skills and cook whatever she wants to eat."

Liu Hao promised with a smile.

Nangong Jiu finished the meatballs in his hand in a few bites and looked at the bowl of porridge again.

Nangong Yunxue smiled and fed him mouthful by mouthful with a spoon, stopping halfway through.

"Okay, today's meatballs are a little big, I can only eat this much."

Nangong Yunxue diverted Nangong Jiu's attention.

"At this time tomorrow, we will be in Gong County. Are you happy?"
