In ancient times, he became a god in the mountains.

Chapter 40 This is not the reaction a mother should have

Mrs. He frowned. Aren’t these just two ordinary, pretty kids?

She came back to her senses and repeated her previous question: "Master, you haven't replied to me yet, why are you torturing Mother Zhao?"

"Madam, Mother Zhao has evil intentions and has harmed our daughter. She hired someone to steal Wanwan's soul. The two fairy children said that if Wanwan's soul is not found, she will never wake up in this life." He Jinzong explained.

"I tortured her to force her to tell me the whereabouts of Wanwan's soul."

Madam He couldn't believe it. She shook her head and said, "This is impossible. Mother Zhao is my wet nurse. She has watched me grow up and treated me like her own daughter. Wanwan is my own flesh and blood. How could Mother Zhao do such a heartless thing to Wanwan? Did the master misunderstand something?"

He Jinzong smiled bitterly and said, "Madam, I also hope that I misunderstood, but you didn't know just now that Mother Zhao has already explained the whole cause and effect. For the sake of her grandson who died young, she actually stole Wanwan's soul and married her grandson in the afterlife."

"Poor Wanwan, her soul is suffering somewhere right now."

Looking at Fire Boy and Water Boy, he introduced them to his wife, "These two are the servants of the Golden Saint Lady, the mountain spirit of the Golden Saint Mountain Range. They are here to help us save Wanwan. If it weren't for Brother Luo Xian taking me to see the Golden Saint Lady, I don't know how long it would take to find someone who can save Wanwan."

Mother Zhao secretly glanced at He Jinzong and shouted, "Madam, you are wronged. I am loyal to you. How could I possibly harm the young lady?"

"You have just explained the whole process of murdering Wanwan, and everyone present has heard it. What? Are you going to deceive Madam again now?" He Jinzong looked at Mother Zhao coldly, his eyes like piercing rays.

It's so strange!

The Mother Zhao in my memory who was dedicated and loyal to the He family was completely different from the Mother Zhao in front of me.

Mother Zhao cried bitterly, "I am innocent. Please, Madam, help me."

The blood and tears on her face were mixed together, how miserable she looked. Madam He showed reluctance: "Master, you shouldn't torture Madam Zhao before finding out the truth."

She still felt there was some misunderstanding.

She grew up with Mother Zhao and she knew exactly what kind of person Mother Zhao was.

Madam He continued, "As for the Golden Saint Lady that the master mentioned, I have never even heard of her. Whether it is credible or not remains to be discussed."

She added, "And you said that Mother Zhao stole Wanwan's soul and married her grandson in the afterlife. Master, don't you think this is too unbelievable? How could such a weird thing happen in this world?"

"Mr. County Magistrate, the longer we delay, the more danger Miss He will face. The most urgent task is to find Miss He's soul first and not delay important matters." Huowa reminded.

"Madam He, we are the servants of the Golden Saint Goddess, the mountain spirit of the Golden Saint Mountain Range. The Goddess's Palace is located deep in the Qihuang Mountain. If you don't believe me, you can check it yourself." Shuiwa changed the subject: "If you still care about your daughter, you shouldn't give up any hope."

"Madam!" He Jinzong sighed, "Mother Zhao has indeed harmed our daughter. We have been married for decades, and I have never lied to you. For the sake of our daughter, I must force Mother Zhao to tell us where Wanwan's soul is. The longer we delay, the more danger Wanwan will suffer. Can we discuss other matters later?"

He Jinzong's eyes were so calm that Mrs. He didn't know how to refute.

Does she care about her daughter?

Of course I care!

She was nearly thirty years old when she gave birth to Wanwan.

She has seven sons, but only one daughter, Wanwan, who is so well-behaved and intelligent. As a mother, how could she not care about her daughter?

But she also cares about the wet nurse.

Mother Zhao was a miserable person. She lost her husband at an early age, her son in her middle age, and her only grandson in her later years was also taken away by drought.

She felt sorry for the wet nurse's miserable life, but she also loved her daughter. When her daughter fell into a coma, she was more worried than anyone else.

Now her most trusted husband said that her wet nurse had harmed her daughter. She felt that it was impossible. How could it be possible?

Madam He wiped the tears from her face and negotiated, "Master, you can lock up Mother Zhao, but please don't lock her up in the torture room or torture her again. She is old, and I would be worried if something happened to her."

Finally, Mrs. He compromised.

Important matters in the family were usually discussed by the two of them. After all, Mother Zhao was her wet nurse. She didn't know why the master was sure that Mother Zhao had harmed Wanwan, but she also knew that the master would not lie to her, and perhaps this was just a misunderstanding.

"Mother Zhao, I'm sorry for wronging you. When the master finds out the truth, I will definitely compensate you. You can live in the backyard wing first. With me here, the master won't resort to lynching again."

“Madam…” Mother Zhao closed her eyes.

"Send Mother Zhao to the backyard room and lock her up." He Jinzong waved his hands irritably. Someone dragged the stunned Mother Zhao away, while Mrs. He wiped her tears.

"Master, since the two fairies have the ability to wake up Wanwan, could you please ask them to start now?" Mrs. He said.

He Jinzong said softly: "I'm sorry to have been laughed at by the two immortal children. I wonder if we can find Wanwan's soul now?"

Shuiwa nodded: "I'll try it now."

She used her spiritual power and the soul power she had just collected from Miss He to connect with the surroundings.

The scene in the Yin-Yang Mirror kept changing. He Jinzong held his breath and Mrs. He was extremely surprised.

This, this, this...is this an ordinary child?

She opened her eyes wide. The scene in front of her had such a huge impact on her. She never thought that someone could make the bronze mirror float out of thin air.

Could it be that they are really fairy children?

Hope burst out in her heart and she stood up suddenly, her heart was shocked and her pupils trembled.

God! It must be a god!

Just like in the storybooks, they can control objects through the air.

"Madam, you are not feeling well. Please sit down first." He Jinzong helped his wife sit on the chair.

Mrs. He's eyes were filled with tears. She held her husband's hand tightly and said, "Master, is it really a god? Is it possible that our Wanwan can really be saved? She will wake up soon, right?"

He Jinzong couldn't bear to tell his wife what the fairy boy had said.

The fairy boy said that a year has passed. If something happened to Wanwan's soul, or if she was eaten by an evil spirit, she would never wake up again. The probability of this happening is very high.

"Madam, don't worry. Our Wanwan is a lucky person. Everything will be fine. Everything will be fine." He kept repeating.

Shuiwa stopped his spiritual power: "Found it!"

Huowa asked: "Where is it?"

He leaned forward to take a closer look at the scene in the Yin-Yang Mirror: "It looks like a farmhouse."

He Jinzong sat up suddenly. He found her. Great! He asked excitedly and anxiously, "Xiantong, my Wanwan... Is Wanwan okay?"

"Let's find this farmhouse first and then talk about other things." Huowa and Shuiwa were at a loss for words. They did not see He Wanwan's figure in the Yin-Yang Mirror, but since the Yin-Yang Mirror gave a hint, it proved that He Wanwan was here.

"Search! I'll have my men search with all their might!"

He Jinzong was worried about his daughter, so he immediately called on the entire He family to search for her.

"Found it?" Mrs. He's eyes gleamed.

He Jinzong, anxious and excited, did not notice his wife's eyes.

That was not the reaction of a loving mother.
