The Rebirth of the Stormy Prosperity Strategy

Chapter 17 Missing (Master goes down the mountain and encounters a handsome man in gold)

"Brother Mo Chu?"

Thinking of Ruo Xiangsi's voice behind him, Mo Luofan turned around and a pink figure rushed up and hugged his neck: "Brother Mo Chu, it's really you."

Mo Luofan was so frightened that he didn't know where to put his hands. Duan Shuangying, who also heard the shouting and ran over, saw this scene and her beautiful face was more angry. Who is this woman? She is so close to Senior Brother Mo. Thinking about how he was very careful when approaching Senior Brother Mo before, and didn't dare to have the slightest conflict, this allowed him to slowly accept getting along with women outside Qingling Peak. This person actually hugged him directly, and he didn't just push her away. This was really a bit infuriating.

Ruo Xiangsi blushed and let go of Mo Luofan, lowering her head and saying, "I'm sorry, brother Mo Chu, it was Xiangsi who got excited. I just haven't seen you for too long, and I missed you a little. I was anxious for the moment... I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

"Forget it, nothing." Mo Luofan sighed. He and Ruo Xiangsi were friends who had shared life and death, so there was nothing wrong with a hug.

Ruo Xiangsi looked at him, then at the white umbrella on the bed and asked, "Are you here to investigate the matter of the woman in red clothes and white umbrella as well?"

Mo Luofan shook his head: "The Qingyuan Sect Trial, I just happened to run into it."

"So that's how it is." Ruo Xiangsi said, "Since five days ago, there have been girls disappearing one after another in Yuxian Town. After a girl disappears, the murderer will leave a white umbrella. Some women have encountered the same incident, but they were not abducted. Instead, their entire faces were scratched and their faces were extremely hideous and terrifying. They still have a white umbrella beside them. According to some women with strong psychological qualities, they met a woman in red holding a white umbrella. The woman first approached them and did something unknown, and then they fainted. When they woke up, their faces were destroyed. No matter whether they were ordinary girls or daughters of powerful families, as long as they were targeted by the woman in red, they would either disappear or be disfigured. Someone went to our Holy Church for help, so my father sent me to investigate. I wanted to lead the woman here, but she was very sensitive. After discovering someone, she ran away immediately and never found me again. This woman has high skills. I don't know which sect she came from. Brother Mochu, can you lend me a hand?"

"of course can."

"Will it disturb Brother Mo Chu's trial?"

"Experience is important but it is not as important as human life. As for the trial, let's find it while we are at it."

"I know that Brother Mo Chu is a chivalrous man who will never abandon human life. It just so happens that our branch of the Holy Church is not far away. You can stay with us for the time being, which will make it easier to investigate the case."

"Thank you."

Qingling Peak——

Mo Xiaolan was sitting in a rocking chair, holding a cup of hot tea, rocking slowly, looking like an old man taking care of his parents. Mu Qingxue was sitting next to her, writing something with a pen. After she finished writing, she stopped and wiped the sweat from her forehead: "I have finished another book. Alas, I can only write some ancient romances in this world. I have thought of many modern domineering novels but I can't write them."

"Don't you see how many good girls your novels have ruined? Even Hua Ruoruo from Qingyitang is addicted to them and can't extricate herself."

"Meet Master Mo Feng."

"Haohan?" Mo Xiaolan stood up and looked at the young man in front of her: "Master, what can I do for you?"

Hao Han said, "According to reports from trial disciples, several girls have gone missing in Yuxian Town in the past six days. The murderer is a woman in red holding a white umbrella. This woman is vicious and ruthless, and has great power. She kidnapped girls and destroyed their appearance. Many female disciples have also been killed. The trial disciples have no choice but to ask for help. Sect Master Mu is in seclusion, and the Sect Master cannot leave Qingyuan Sect easily, so the Sect Master also asked Master Mo Feng to come down the mountain to help the disciples, and make sure they are safe and successfully rescue the captured disciples."

"Oh, I see. You can go down now." Mo Xiaolan waved her hand.

Haohan was shocked: "Peak Master..." Why are you so cold?

"I understand. I will go down the mountain today."

After Haohan left, Mo Xiaolan lay down again: "White umbrella, red clothes." She smiled: "I've had so many good days that I forgot about the dungeon. Do you want to go?" She looked at Mu Qingxue who was standing beside her. Mu Qingxue shook her head and said: "No, if I go, I will inevitably see a woman with a disfigured face, and I will always feel guilty. Besides, a girl who grows flowers in the ghost world can't beat you. If I go, I will only cause trouble for you."

"Alas." Mo Xiaolan closed her eyes and recalled the details about the woman in red with a white umbrella in the original novel. "There was a little girl in the ghost world who planted red spider lilies named Zuiyan. She loved flowers like her life and thought that red spider lilies stained with human blood looked better, so she ran away from the ghost world. When she met a young woman, she would first smell her. If she thought the smell was good, she would capture her. If it was not, she would destroy her appearance. She would take the blood of the captured women every ten days, and then water the flowers when the ghost gates opened in July. It seems that the time is the day after tomorrow. In the original novel, Mo Xiaolan took the risk and used herself to seduce Zuiyan and rescued all the girls on the night of the full moon. Unfortunately, she let her escape in the end. It was a wise decision for the head brother to let me go. With the clearance strategy in hand, I am not panicking at all."

"Then why don't you go quickly."

"Don't worry, tonight is the Chinese Valentine's Day, it's a good day for excitement, go there in the evening, have some fun and watch the large-scale husband-grabbing scene."

Mo Xiaolan became interested when she talked about this matter. 'Ruo Xiangsi and Duan Shuangying knew that they both had a crush on Mo Luofan when they met for the first time, so on the Chinese Valentine's Day, each of them started to make great plans and tried their best to spend time with Mo Luofan for two, and finally it became a world of three. Duan Shuangying had been occupying Mo Luofan, and Ruo Xiangsi was disheartened and went to light lanterns alone. Unexpectedly, Mo Luofan found an excuse to send Duan Shuangying back, and turned to find Ruo Xiangsi to spend the night of Chinese Valentine's Day with her. The two had a heart-to-heart talk at night. Ruo Xiangsi wanted to confess her love at night, but Mo Luofan But Mo Luofan first told her that he liked his master Mo Xiaolan. Ruo Xiangsi felt sorry for him and didn't want him to be embarrassed, so she decided to keep this relationship in her heart. When she knew that Mo Luofan was sent to the demon world, she was willing to break off all ties with her father to be with him. In the end, Mo Luofan finally saw who he should really love, gave up Mo Xiaolan and fell in love with Ruo Xiangsi. But now everything has changed. Now Mo Luofan doesn't like me at all, but has a good impression of Ruo Xiangsi. It would be best if the two of them could finish the matter tonight, and from then on, they would be in love and grow old together, hahaha. '

"Xue girl, do you think I should capture Zuiyan alive and use the opportunity to go to the ghost world to find Mingfan and have a chance encounter with him?"

"I advise you not to do that. It would be great if the story develops correctly. What if you kill yourself?"

"OK then."

When Mo Xiaolan arrived at Yuxian Town, it was almost dark. All the stalls had already set up their stalls, ready to make a fortune on the Chinese Valentine's Day. She stretched and walked into an inn. The most important thing in the world is eating.

"Boy, how can you eat without money!"

There was a dispute at the front desk, and Mo Xiaolan, who had eaten and drunk her fill, followed the crowd to watch the fun.

The one who ate the free meal was a man in gold clothes, who looked not much older than her and was as handsome as Mo Luofan. He was wearing a precious satin round-necked robe and a dark jade pendant around his waist. His manners were full of noble temperament, and he really didn't look like a hooligan who ate the free meal.

"Let me say this again. My purse was stolen. I'll write you an IOU first and return it to you later."

"People who come here to eat and dine for free all say this, but in the end they still lose their money and the person runs away."

Mo Xiaolan puffed up her cheeks. "It seems like another rich young master has come out to play. He's so rich, why not make some money?"

Snapped--

A large ingot of silver was slapped on the table. Mo Xiaolan smiled at the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, is this enough to pay his bill?"

The shopkeeper's eyes widened when he saw the silver. He held up the silver and smiled like a crescent moon: "That's enough, sir. Come again next time."

"Let's go, young master." She pulled up the man's sleeve and walked out of the inn.

"Thank you for your help, girl."

"Thank you, it's not necessary. Just pay me back." Mo Xiaolan crossed her arms over her chest and said, "Since you can't come up with any money right now, I'll give you a few days. You can pay me back the next time we meet."

"What if we never see each other again?"

"Then just hide and be thankful."

The man was amused by her words. Mo Xiaolan's first reaction was that he looked very handsome when he smiled. She looked at Mo Luofan's handsome face every day, so her standards had already been raised a lot. A man whom she called handsome would definitely have a face that could kill any young handsome guy in seconds.

"Oh, right." Mo Xiaolan took out her purse, counted the silver inside, and handed it to him: "You are penniless, take this money home, and return it to me next time we meet."

The man took off the jade pendant from his waist and said, "Then I'll use this as a loan for you. When I pay off the money, you can return it to me."

"Okay." Mo Xiaolan accepted the jade pendant without hesitation, not wanting to miss it.

The man looked at the brightly lit area not far away and said, "It's very lively here today, let's go for a walk." He waved the purse in front of her and said, "Are you treating or am I treating?"

"It's my money. You treated me to a meal, but you still have to pay me back afterwards."

"You are such a money-grubber."

The two of them walked into the dimly lit place with a smile. The man took a fancy to a hairpin, paid for it, and turned around, and the "creditor" disappeared.

"Girl, girl?"

"Wow!"

A ghost face mask appeared in front of him, but he didn't look scared at all. Mo Xiaolan took off the mask and took a look: "This mask is quite scary, you are not scared?"

"Ah, you are scaring me." The man suddenly realized and pretended to be frightened and shouted: "Wow, what a scary mask!"

"Come on!" Mo Xiaolan flicked his forehead lightly: "It's so fake." Then she took his hand and said: "Come on, buy a mask and wear it too."

When he came to the mask stall, he chose a ghost face mask similar to hers. The stall owner saw that the two were dressed like rich people and immediately boasted, "Sir, you have a good eye. The mask in your hand is a pair with the mask of the girl next to you. And it is very popular. Look at my stall, there are only a few left."

A pair of...

"Okay, I take it." The man paid the money and put on the mask immediately. He then gently pulled off the mask that was diagonally worn on Mo Xiaolan's head and put it on her.

As soon as the two left, the stall owner immediately took out a lot of masks and put them back on display, then shouted skillfully.

Soon, a man and two women came over. The man looked unwilling and was dragged over by the two women next to him. The worldly-wise stall owner saw through the clues at a glance.

"Boss, how much is this?" The woman in white on the man's right asked, picking up a mask with flowers on it.

"Five cents, but I think you three are special, how about this one?" The stall owner took out the same pair of masks as the one he just sold, but he took one more, the female version, and said, "This one is for couples."

"So ugly." The woman in white seemed to dislike these ghost face masks, but the other woman in pink liked them very much. She picked up the mask and said, "Brother Mo Chu, this one is pretty. Let's take one each."

"I want one too." The woman in white, Duan Shuangying, also picked up one of them: "It's not that ugly, actually."

Mo Luofan was really embarrassed to be caught in the middle. If he had known this would happen, he would have dragged Senior Brother Zhufan out.

"Brother Mochu, let's go release river lanterns."

"What's so good about the river lanterns? Let's go to the cloth shop and buy two new clothes. Wearing this every day looks like mourning."

“Let’s release river lanterns.”

"Go buy clothes."

"How about you two go for a walk..." Mo Luofan said in a low voice.

"No." This time the two of them rejected him in unison in tacit understanding.

Mo Luofan said that he felt very sad and missed his master more and more. When he was with his master, he would cry and shout about where to go, and his master would follow him. If one day his master came to go shopping with him and asked him to accompany her, he was afraid that he would be so happy that he would go crazy.

In a trance, he seemed to see...Master in the crowd.
