After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 234

Chapter 234: The Filial Zhouzhou
“What soul-binding rope?” An Ya looked puzzled.

Zhouzhou asked, “Have you been trapped in one place all these years, unable to go far?”

“Yes, yes,” An Ya’s eyes lit up. “How did you know?”

Seeing her serious expression, An Ya quickly said, “I forgot to mention earlier, but I’ve been in that place since the day you were born.”

At that time, her body was forcibly dragged there just like before, so she didn’t see when the abbot took Zhouzhou back.

After that, she tried to leave but couldn’t go far. She could only wander around slowly. Fortunately, the area she could move in grew larger each year. During that time, she got to know many ghost sisters and even became their leader.

Not long ago, for some reason, her range suddenly increased to one hundred meters. She was excited and wanted to go out, but she accidentally ended up in another ghost’s territory. She initially wanted to apologize, but they immediately attacked her. She couldn’t just stand there and be bullied, so she picked up a stick and joined the fight.

The two sides were evenly matched and agreed to have a decisive battle today. Then Zhouzhou summoned her with a talisman. She didn’t know if those bastards thought she was scared.

She didn’t say the last sentence to avoid destroying the gentle image she had in her little daughter’s heart.

Little did she know, Zhouzhou had already seen through her true appearance. Only Ye Lingfeng, a person blinded by love, couldn’t see it.

Hearing her words, Zhouzhou rubbed her chin, and Ye Lingfeng nervously ran over to ask, “Zhouzhou, what’s going on? What does that soul-binding rope mean?”

The Qin family members also looked worried.

Seeing this, Zhouzhou explained, “It means someone has trapped Mom’s spiritual body, preventing her from leaving.”

If she hadn’t been stronger than the other party, she probably wouldn’t have been able to summon her back this time.

“Could it be that I suddenly gained the ability to go far because my strength has increased?” An Ya asked, making an analogy. She also felt that she had become much stronger recently and didn’t float during fights anymore.

Zhouzhou nodded. “It’s possible, but why did you suddenly become powerful?”

She thought for a moment and came up with a possibility. “It might be because you are closer to your bones.”

Her bones?

Ye Lingfeng narrowed his eyes and immediately said, “Earlier, Duan Wenqian said that someone had stolen Yaya’s bones. I’ve already sent people to investigate, but the other party cleaned up thoroughly and didn’t leave any traces.”

Who in Hua Country could do that?

He looked at An Ya and asked, “Yaya, do you remember anything around you?”

An Ya thought carefully and said, “There was a building, but the sign had been removed. The surroundings were desolate. It should still be within the scope of Jing City.”

“Why do you say that?”

An Ya confidently replied, “Because the ghost who fought with me for the territory spoke with a Jing accent!”

Zhouzhou poked her head out and asked, “So, Mom, you really were fighting with someone just now?”

Her ears were sharp, and she hadn’t misheard!

Upon hearing this, An Ya immediately covered her mouth and looked at Ye Lingfeng guiltily. But he didn’t seem surprised at all and said, “Haven’t you noticed that none of those people dared to reveal your identity?”

He wasn’t a fool. Even though his martial arts weren’t as strong back then, he could still perceive some things.

Every time he saw her fighting with her bulging belly, he would panic.

Fortunately, she was very skilled and never got hurt.

He had originally wanted to tell her directly, but seeing how happy she was in front of him, he couldn’t spoil it. He could only cooperate with her and help her clean up after she finished the fight.

He didn’t expect that she actually knew. An Ya innocently blinked her eyes and playfully flicked his sleeve. “Honey, don’t be angry. I just heard from the headmistress that men like gentle women, so I acted that way.”

She grew up in an orphanage and orphans were easily bullied, so she had to secretly learn martial arts to protect herself.

Ye Lingfeng naturally knew all this and shook his head. “I’m not angry, Yaya. Can you remember any other information? For example, did you see anyone there?”

She was trapped there, and there must be a formation. It was definitely the work of someone.

He just couldn’t understand. An Ya had always been well-liked. Who would do such a thing?

An Ya thought for a moment and said, “I seem to have heard a woman’s voice.”

“A woman? Did you hear what she said?” Ye Lingfeng asked.

An Ya shook her head. At that time, when she was first trapped, she was very weak and not very clear about the details. Besides, she couldn’t think of anything extra. The place had already been abandoned, and very few people went there.

Ye Lingfeng carefully pondered her words. Based on her description, it sounded a lot like an abandoned construction site. He looked at Zhouzhou and asked, “Zhouzhou, can you calculate the location of Yaya’s bones?”

According to what she just said, if the place where she was suppressed wasn’t far from her bones, then finding the bones would lead them to the culprit.

Zhouzhou nodded, “Yes, as long as there is something your mother used in her lifetime.”

After saying that, she remembered something and hurriedly ran upstairs, saying as she ran, “Wait for me.”

Not long after, she came back downstairs with a bundle.

It was given to her by the abbot when she left the mountain.

Zhouzhou carefully opened the bundle and touched the blood on the clothes inside. Unable to resist, she glanced at An Ya.

An Ya also saw it and recognized it. It was the clothes she wore on the day she gave birth. At that time, after she died, Duan Wenqian didn’t even take the swaddling cloth, but wrapped little Zhouzhou directly with her clothes.

Thinking of that scene, An Ya’s heart clenched, and she understood why Zhouzhou didn’t want to acknowledge Ye Lingfeng now. After all, they had never raised her. She was already content that Zhouzhou called her “mom.”

She walked forward, touched Zhouzhou’s little head, and said, “Mom is very happy to see you.”

She was now a spiritual body, so her hands naturally felt cold, but Zhouzhou felt a warm sensation in her heart.

Unable to hold back, Zhouzhou held her hand and said, “Mom, don’t worry, I will definitely find your bones and send you on your way to reincarnation!”

Reincarnation was the best destination for a spiritual body!

An Ya said, “…Thank you.”

“You’re welcome.”

Seeing her earnest little daughter, An Ya couldn’t help but smile.

Seeing that she was about to leave, An Ya quickly grabbed her and said, “Zhouzhou, no rush. It’s too late now, I’ll leave tomorrow.”

She wanted to spend more time with her.

She was afraid that her little daughter would send her off before dawn tomorrow.

Zhouzhou tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said, “Mom, if a spiritual body stays in the mortal realm for too long, it will affect your reincarnation in the next life.”

Upon hearing this, Ye Lingfeng’s heart tightened. His hope in life was that she would have a better life in her next life.

“Yaya, why don’t you just leave for now?” He forced himself to say these words, his voice strained, and his face pale.

An Ya looked at him and shook her head. “It’s okay, just this one day. There’s no rush.”

She had no memories of her next life. The two people in front of her were her only concerns in this lifetime.

Seeing this, Zhouzhou didn’t insist.

Just then, Ye Lingfeng’s phone rang. It was from Qi Hua, saying that Xi Mo was indeed in Jing City, and he attached a photo of him.

Ye Lingfeng opened it, and his face instantly turned grim. It was indeed him!

At that moment, An Ya, who was next to him, leaned over and took a look. She exclaimed, “Hey, I’ve seen him before!”
