Reborn as a phoenix, Qingluan took a fancy to her

Chapter 174 Taotie strikes again! This time both eggs are broken!

"Ruoxi, who is your father?"

"My father is an imperial censor. I don't know what position he holds... But my father hopes that I will become someone who works for the welfare of the people. It just so happens that I also like to help people solve their problems. I mediate all the conflicts among my friends. Unfortunately, they are all far away in the capital of Xianyang now... I haven't seen them for five years. I don't know how they are doing..."

"Oh, if you miss your friends so much, just go back and see them, Xiao Ruoxi~"

Mu Yan looked at Hua Ruoxi who was becoming increasingly dazed and advised.

"Oh! I can't go back! I received news a while ago that the capital is in chaos. People used to gather there, but now they are fleeing!"

Dongfang Yun hurriedly spoke after hearing what Sister Yan said.

"What happened, Yunyun? We are all very close to home, and you are not as well-informed as me. Tell us something."

As Mu Yan spoke, she directed Hua Ruoxi and Mu Yueyue to bring small stools to the bedside and sit in a row, waiting for the teacher to give a lecture. Dongfang Yun was stunned and realized something and said:

"Hey! How come you three have the same hairstyle?! So cute, I thought Yueyue had become cuter just now, but I didn't expect that you three had all become even cuter! It turns out it's because you changed your hairstyle! I want to change it too!"

Although Dongfang Yun is as sensible as Mu Yan and is usually a quiet and peaceful girl, she will naturally act like a girl when she sees something that girls like. At this moment, it can be seen that she is not scheming, but is just too sensible.

"Oh! Tell me quickly! I'll make the same one for you myself in a moment!"

"okay!"

Dongfang Yun immediately started talking when he heard Yueyue say this:

"Recently, the three branches of our Oriental Bookstore in Xianyang City have all returned to Luofeng City. My father didn't let them come back. I only found out that something happened in Xianyang City when I asked him."

After Dongfang Yun said this, the three people under the bed immediately sat up straight, waiting for Dongfang Yun's next words. Hua Ruoxi, in particular, looked extremely nervous, which Dongfang Yun saw.

"Sister Yan, Yueyue, you all know that we have 19 branches in the Oriental Bookstore. Now that we have withdrawn three branches from the capital, it has become the 20th, 21st, and 22nd branches. According to what they said, the King of Qin is now looking for the elixir of immortality in all parts of Qin State, and he is looking for talented people everywhere! He completely disregards the lives of the people. Now that the King of Qin is gone in the capital, there are evil officials and bad judges! Officials and businessmen are colluding, and bandits dare to frequently harass the capital! The government doesn't care!"

"There are still many bad guys gathering in the city! They are called the Disorder Cult. I think it is just a cult organized by a group of bandits who kill, burn, bully men and women!"

"Also, the price of grain in the capital is frighteningly high right now! Sister Yan, you don't know that some corrupt officials took advantage of the King of Qin's absence to empty the treasury of millet! They sold it all to grain merchants! Those grain merchants are really abominable! They sell rice for ten coins per catty! In Luofeng, we only get one coin and two catties, a difference of twenty times!"

"Yueyue, give me some tea. I'm a little thirsty after talking so much. After you drink it, I'll continue to tell you."

"Oh! You are so...annoying!"

Mu Yueyue stopped talking when she heard this, and ran out after complaining, going to the large living room in the middle to get the big teapot. Hua Ruoxi was a guest, so she couldn't change it. Mu Yan was her sister Yanyan, who was closer to her than her sister, so Mu Yueyue could only walk with her short legs~

"Give it to me! Tell me quickly! I'm so tired..."

Dongfang Yun took it and drank it. This time it happened to be herbal tea. Mu Yueyue came back and handed Dongfang Yun a large bamboo cup. He quickly sat down, breathing deeply, and drank from the same large bamboo cup as the one in Fengluanlou, both of which were made by Xiaomuzi.

While Dongfang Yun was drinking tea, Mu Yan looked at the breathless Mu Yueyue and said softly: "Yueyue, you are out of breath after such a short distance. You need to move more in the future~"

"It's okay, Sister Yanyan, I'm better than Xiao Yunzi~"

Mu Yueyue smiled and responded, while Mu Yan thought to herself, "They even call each other nicknames. I don't know how far it has developed. I should ask Yue some time... No, this girl is too easily angered. I should ask Dongfang Yun some time. She is so generous and easy-going that she shouldn't mind my gossipy spirit, right?"

At this moment, Hua Ruoxi remained silent. Mu Yan and Mu Yueyue did not notice his abnormality. Only Dongfang Yun, who was drinking tea, was observing Hua Ruoxi. Dongfang Yun felt the feeling of "the rabbit's death makes the fox mourn" from Hua Ruoxi.

Hua Ruoxi didn't care at all about the identity of the person in front of him, whether she was the first lady of Luofeng City or not. All he cared about was the safety of those friends he had grown up with five years ago. He really wanted to go back and see them... Unfortunately, Hua Ruoxi's father seemed to be hiding something and had not allowed him to go. Hua Ruoxi also knew that she was very good-looking, and it was not easy for him to secretly go to the capital of Xianyang, which was thousands of miles away. Otherwise, with her appearance, she would have difficulty guaranteeing her safety even if she was a man.

"Okay, tell me now!"

After seeing Dongfang Yun finish drinking, Mu Yueyue stood up and took the diabolo cup. After watching Dongfang Yun finish drinking the water in the diabolo cup, she thought to herself, "It seems that he is really thirsty... My two sips of water..."

Mu Yueyue was still thinking about the ambiguous scene from before when she suddenly felt someone touching the back of her hand.

"Hands are so soft~"

"Hate!"

After Mu Yueyue realized that it was Dongfang Yun who touched her hand, she just said something coquettishly, then she remembered that Sister Yanyan and another person were watching nearby. She blushed, put down the empty cup and sat down obediently.

"Ha ha……"

Mu Yan just smiled as she watched the interaction between the two, and thought to herself, "It seems that Yunyun is the husband, and Yueyue is the wife~". Mu Yan had read quite a few romance books before she could make such a judgment.

"Cough cough!"

"Xianyang is just a mess right now, so you must not go there, Xiao Ruoxi~"

Dongfang Yun looked at the expressionless Hua Ruoxi and tried to comfort her. There was nothing he could do. Dongfang Yun was also good at observing people's expressions and naturally saw that Hua Ruoxi's mood had become low. Otherwise, Dongfang Yun would not have been able to pursue Mu Yueyue.

"Hey, what are you talking about? Just speak!"

"Oh, baby Yueyue can't wait any longer, so I'll start talking~"

Hearing Dongfang Yun calling her that, Mu Yueyue's face turned red again because there were other people present. However, sooner or later she would be able to calm down and not be teased by Dongfang Yun easily.

"The people from the Eastern Third Bureau also told us about two major cases that happened in Xianyang some time ago. It was said that a goddess appeared in Xianyang and that thousands of criminals were killed by goddesses overnight! It has become an unsolved case!"

This situation is of course Taotie's action again~, thousands of human women prayed to her, and she received thousands of people's incense bribes... Bah... How can the gods' affairs be called bribes! After receiving the incense, Taotie immediately turned her attention to the human world. In addition, she was disgusted with these scumbags, and when she saw the scene of counting money, she immediately became furious and performed another mass castration operation. This time, not only the cucumbers were gone, but also the two eggs were smashed by her~

Taotie accomplished all this in the Ninth Heaven! This is the strength of the current number one in the world! There is no need to go to the scene! Taotie also decided that when her two nieces wake up and go to the human world with Suzaku, she doesn't mind helping Suzaku seal Hun Dun! Compared with Taowu, she feels more disgusted!

"Is it the same thing that happened ten years ago?"

Mu Yan interrupted when she heard this, and thought about the stories Hua Ruoxi told her at Fengluan Tower, but the time didn't match. Hua Ruoxi was talking about ten years ago, and Dongfang Yun was talking about the more recent ones.

"Yes! Hey! Sister Yan, how did you know this? I don't think I ever told you about it. I was saving it for later conversations with you guys."

Dongfang Yun was shocked and wondered why Sister Yan knew this, so he asked.

"Xiao Ruoxi is from Xianyang Capital. She moved to our Luofeng Capital five years ago!"

"It's good that you moved here! It's a good thing that you moved here, little Ruoxi... Then the second big case will be even more frightening..."

Dongfang Yun looked at Hua Ruoxi's pitiful appearance, sighed and continued:

"The capital of Xianyang is now full of dead bodies. Some were killed, some died of starvation, and all kinds of deaths! The second major case is different from the first one. The first one was said to be the goddess Lingxi's re-attack or something, but no one knows whether it is true or not. The second one has a name and a surname!"

"Comparing the current Xianyang capital with our Luofeng city... one is as far away as heaven and the other is as far away as hell!"

"You're here again, why don't you say something!"

Mu Yueyue was annoyed by Dongfang Yun's suspenseful operation and urged him unhappily.

"Oh sorry, I just like water characters... ahem."

"This second major case is..."
