Master is tempting, come to my disciple's arms

Chapter 151: The Sorrow of Chengtao in Chenxu Town (Beginning)

The team departing for Chenshen Town added another person. This person was someone Su Qiwei had strongly requested in private. He was her direct disciple, Qian Miaomiao.

Su Qiwei had explained the reason to him in a few words. As for whether her junior brother believed it or not, that was not her concern.

Bai Luoli silently gave Qian Miaomiao a thumbs up in her heart. It is said that it is easy for a girl to win over a boy, but you can't tell from this girl's personality. She is proactive and aggressive in pursuing true love.

Only the warriors who dare to pursue love can enjoy the sweetness of love.

Qian Miaomiao was "sold" by her master and became a free laborer for Bai Luoli to command.

In the disciples' courtyard, two disciples and a master gathered under a peach tree.

There are two things I need to explain today, one of which is about the gold floating jade.

As early as when Bai Luoli passed the message, Jin Fuyu followed Jiang Yuning out of the room. Although he did not belong to Jiyue Mountain, nor did he become Bai Luoli's disciple, he was, after all, a junior with little influence.

This was his second face-to-face encounter with Bai Xianzun of Jiyue Mountain.

As expected... he doesn't deserve to have such a beautiful master.

The beautiful master sat down gracefully on the white stone stool and was assigning homework for tomorrow to his disciples.

"I have accepted a mission for you. It is about the case of a fruit farmer missing in the orchard in Chenxu Town. Leave tomorrow morning. Don't delay." The man finished speaking and his eyes left the two disciples. His light-colored eyes turned slightly and locked onto Jin Fuyu. His lips, which were as bright as spring buds, opened and closed again. "You can come closer. What I am going to say next is related to you. The Yutu Sect will send someone to take you back to the sect tomorrow morning. You will know who it is when the time comes."

"Disciple/Jin Fu Yu Zun Xiao." The three people's completely different voices and expressions were indistinguishable from each other at this moment, blending perfectly.

The effectiveness of the illusion was about to weaken. In order to avoid exposing the secret that he had deliberately hidden in front of his disciples and juniors, Bai Luoli performed the technique of shrinking the earth into an inch on the spot, which stunned Jin Fuyu.

The high-level cultivator is worthy of being a high-level cultivator, and he has mastered the difficult high-level techniques.

Chu Yunze had no idea about the challenges he would face tomorrow, so he hurried back to his room to meditate and cram for the exam.

Jin Fuyu was afraid that he would never see Jiang Yuning again after returning to Yu Tu Sect, so he proposed to inject each other's spiritual power into the voice-transmitting jade, so that the two could always keep in close contact even if they did not meet.

Jiang Yuning could understand his suggestion. After exchanging their spiritual power, they went back to their rooms to rest.

The journey to Chenxu Town is long. According to normal means of transportation, it will take four days to reach the destination, and that is when the horses do not eat grass or drink water during the entire journey.

Flying with a sword saves a lot of time and greatly shortens the distance.

The moment the four people looked down from the sky, they saw an eye-protecting green sea covering the moist land. The pink peaches and oranges made everyone's saliva well up just by looking at them. It was clearly a winter with a biting north wind, but there was a sense of incongruity as if they were in the red and green spring.

And because it is located in the south, the temperature here is not that cold, and the clothes they wear do not need to be bulky and heavy. Bai Luoli wears very light clothes all year round, whether it is summer or winter. As a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, it is normal for him to keep out the cold and heat.

At most he can wear a cloak on the outside to show a little respect for winter, but don't think of him dressing like a ball.

The mayor of Chenwu Town was beyond everyone's expectations. He was a young and gentle man in his early twenties. The several resident cultivators who were guarding Chenwu City were also there, waiting for Bai Luoli and the others to arrive.

The unique way of greeting between sects was fully displayed at this moment.

"My dear immortals, my last name is Tao Xianghe. You can call me Xianghe. I'm here today because of the missing fruit farmer. As noon is approaching, I've prepared a table of food and wine for you. We can talk while we eat."

Bai Luoli nodded "coldly", but in fact his appearance did not match the word "cold" at all.

There are a total of more than ten inns of various sizes in the town. Due to the large-scale cultivation of orchards, there are many merchants from all over the world. Some of them usually choose to stay overnight in Chenshen Town in order to negotiate purchasing business.

On the way, Tao Xianghe played the role of a consultant, explaining the customs and culture of Chenxu Town to everyone. If they happened to meet the families of several missing persons, they would stop and ask about the specific situation.

Chu Yunze and Jiang Yuning looked at the surrounding townspeople. Qian Miaomiao followed Jiang Yuning attentively, looking around. The outstanding looks and strong aura of the group attracted astonished glances from passers-by. Some of them whispered to each other, while others threw sachets. In short, no one was reserved.

"Brother, aren't you going to throw away the sachet in your arms?"

Jiang Yuning was holding several brightly colored sachets in his hands, and the fragrance emanating from them made him want to sneeze.

Chu Yunze heard this and sent a message in secret, "Wait until we get to the inn before throwing it away. If we throw it in front of these women, they will be very sad and embarrassed."

"Oh! Senior brother, what you said makes sense. Blame me, blame me. I did things without considering the consequences."

Qian Miaomiao doesn't have to worry because she doesn't have any.

As a result, just as this secretly happy thought came to her mind, a purse thrown by someone by mistake fell into her arms.

She followed the direction of the purse and saw a girl of fifteen or sixteen. She did not avoid him when she looked at her, but glanced at her with seductive eyes.

"Hiss..." She felt goose bumps on her smooth skin.

Although Bai Luoli looks more appetizing, his aloof look when he is silent makes people hesitate to act too recklessly.

"Everyone, we are here." Tao Xianghe pushed open the carved wooden door first, and a light gauze curtain was hung behind the door. The outer room was similar to the furnishings of a study, with all the four treasures of the study complete. The barrier separating the inner and outer rooms was a more than one-meter-high antique shelf, on which many exquisitely carved ornaments were placed.

While eating and chatting, Tao Xianghe slowly recounted the story of how the fruit farmer disappeared.

"There are five or six fruit farmers who disappeared. They all disappeared after entering the orchard after lunch. We didn't find them running out of the orchard. The orchard is too large, and it's impossible to just look for them. It has been almost seven days, and we don't know whether they are dead or alive. The immortal master on duty said that those fruit farmers are very likely to have turned into fruit trees in the orchard. We have limited abilities and no way to rescue them. Please show mercy to us, immortal master!"

Tao Xianghe finally couldn't hold back his frustration and loss anymore, he covered his face and started crying on the spot.

Bai Luoli saw sliced ​​peaches and peeled oranges on the high-foot plate, and thought that these were their specialty fruits. After Tao Xianghe finished crying, he realized that his inappropriate behavior had brought a bad influence to everyone, so he apologized before allowing everyone to taste the fruit on the plate.

Before eating the orange, Tao Xianghe deliberately poured honey on it, saying that this would make the taste more layered.

The flesh is covered with flowing honey. When it is put into the mouth, the tongue coating will feel it first, and then the teeth will gently crush it. The rich juice mixed with the sweetness of honey neutralizes the slightly sour original taste. After chewing it for a few times, the taste turns into another kind of thirst-quenching sweetness.

The peach has a crispy texture when you bite it, and once it enters your mouth it tastes like the center of a cantaloupe.

After eating, Bai Luoli planned to take Chu Yunze and the others to take a look inside the orchard. Tao Xianghe was standing on the dirt road outside the orchard, hesitating, probably because of the recent cases of fruit farmers. The resident cultivator followed Bai Luoli's instructions and had to leave with Tao Xianghe.

There are too few detailed clues provided. Why did the fruit farmers turn into fruit trees for no reason? Did they really turn into fruit trees?

Logically, there would be a deviation in the number of fruit trees that were transformed. The honest reactions of the resident cultivators illustrated a problem, that is, no one in the town was sure how many fruit trees were originally in the orchard, not even Tao Xianghe himself.

Weird doubts lingered in the minds of Bai Luoli and others. Perhaps the source of the crime was a suitable breakthrough.
