Balala the Magic Fairy

Chapter 114: The Ghost Hunt in the Red Mansion (8)

The night was as dark as ink. Beside an ancient temple in the wilderness, the bandit leader Meng Yi had a face as handsome as jade, but was extremely cruel and ruthless.

His words were extremely vulgar, and he often used obscene language to insult Yan Lili and Yun Li, and he kept making threatening remarks.

One day, Meng Yi had evil thoughts and made the two men faint with incense. He ordered his men to take off their clothes, bathe them and change their clothes, and then carry them to his room, intending to commit a crime.

Yan Lili and Yun Li woke up from their dreams, but felt their bodies were weak and unable to move.

When Meng Yi saw Yan Lili's skin as white as snow, evil thoughts suddenly came to his mind.

Seeing this, Yunli felt pity for Yan Lili and offered to take the humiliation for her.

When Meng Yi saw that Yunli was handsome, his greed arose again, so he abandoned Yan Lili and committed obscene acts against Yunli.

Yan Lili was heartbroken and distraught when she saw Yunli being humiliated.

Yun Li was under Meng Yi, feeling unbearable pain, but he gritted his teeth and said nothing, for fear that Yan Lili would become even more worried.

Meng Yi acted recklessly, disregarding Yunli's pain and only caring about his own pleasure.

As the night deepened, Meng Yi finally felt satisfied and fell into a deep sleep.

Yunli and Yan Lili took the opportunity to support each other and tried their best to use their internal energy to try to dispel the drugs in their bodies.

Yan Lili felt guilty and tearful. She whispered to Yunli, "Master Yunli, Lili is incompetent and has caused you to suffer this humiliation."

Yun Li endured the pain and said in a weak but firm voice: "Lili, don't blame yourself. What happened today was beyond our expectations. You and I should work together to overcome this disaster."

The two of them leaned on each other in the dark room until dawn.

Finally, with Yunli's unremitting efforts, the effect of the drug gradually wore off.

Yunli helped Yan Lili up, and the two of them tiptoed and quietly escaped from Meng Yi's clutches.

Yan Lili and Yun Li, after going through untold hardships, finally escaped from the bandit's lair.

The two men were dressed in rags and looked miserable, but their wills were as strong as a rock and they went straight to the Grand View Garden.

When everyone in the garden saw this, they were all shocked and came forward to ask questions.

Yan Lili briefly recounted what had happened. After hearing this, everyone was filled with indignation and requested to go with her to eliminate the banditry.

When Yinzhen learned about this, he frowned, knowing that this matter was of great importance. If it was not resolved quickly, it would cause even greater disturbances.

He immediately summoned the guards in the garden, led them personally, and followed Yan Lili and Yun Li to the bandit's lair.

The bandit's lair is located deep in the mountains, with dangerous terrain, easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Yinzhen commanded the guards to divide the troops into several groups and approached quietly.

The bandits were still in a deep sleep, unaware that a disaster was about to happen.

The guards were like tigers descending from the mountains, unstoppable. The bandits were caught off guard and surrendered one after another.

However, when Yinzhen led his men into the room where Meng Yi was, they found that the room was empty, with only a half-open window swaying in the wind.

Yinzhen's heart sank when he learned that Meng Yi had escaped and the matter was not yet settled.

Yan Lili stood in front of the window, looking at the night outside, with a hint of determination in her eyes.

She knew Meng Yi was cunning, so he would be more cautious when escaping this time, but she would not let him go easily.

She turned to Yinzhen and said, "Sir, although Meng Yi has escaped, there must be traces of him. Lili is willing to track him down personally and will definitely bring him to justice."

Yinzhen saw the determination in Yan Lili's eyes and knew that she had made up her mind, so he nodded in agreement.

He knew very well that Yan Lili had made great achievements in cultivating immortals. If she took action personally, Meng Yi would definitely not be able to escape the law.

Yunli stood aside, his eyes swept over Yan Lili lightly, and then turned to Yinzhen, saying firmly: "Sir, Yunli is also willing to go with you and lend a helping hand to Lili."

Yinzhen nodded slightly. He knew that Yunli was also a cultivator. With his help, Yan Lili would have a greater chance of winning.

He said in a deep voice: "In that case, I'll have to trouble you two."

After the three of them had made their decision, they set out overnight to track down Meng Yi.

Yan Lili and Yun Li walked side by side, and under the moonlight, their figures were stretched out.

Yun Li's face was pale and he walked unsteadily. With every step he took, he felt a slight pain in his lower body.

Seeing this, Yan Lili couldn't bear it and asked softly, "Master Yunli, can you still hold on?"

Yun Li forced a smile, his voice trembling a little: "It's okay, just a minor injury, nothing to worry about."

However, as time went by, Yunli's injuries became more serious and his clothes were stained with blood.

Seeing this, Yan Lili frowned, knowing that she could not let Yunli go any further, otherwise his injuries would worsen and the consequences would be disastrous.

"Master Yunli, although you and I are determined to pursue the murderer, our health is more important."

Yan Lili stopped, her eyes full of concern, "I will send you back to Grand View Garden first, and when your injuries are healed, we will act together."

Yunli wanted to refuse, but the severe pain in his body made it difficult for him to persist, so he had to nod in agreement.

Yan Lili supported him, carefully avoided the thorns, found a relatively flat path, and slowly walked towards the Grand View Garden.

After returning to the garden, Yan Lili immediately summoned a doctor to treat Yunli.

Seeing that Yunli was seriously injured, the doctor did not dare to neglect him. He immediately gave him acupuncture and moxibustion, prescribed some medicine, and asked Yan Lili to take good care of him.

Yan Lili stayed by Yunli's bed, looking at his brows slightly furrowed in pain, feeling mixed emotions.

She comforted him softly, "Master Yunli, you can rest and recover from your injuries. I will take care of Meng Yi's matter."

Yun Li opened his eyes and looked at Yan Lili, with a hint of gratitude in his eyes: "Lili, I'm sorry for causing you trouble this time."

Yan Lili shook her head slightly. She knew that Yunli was seriously injured to protect her, and her gratitude and respect for him became even greater.

She said softly, "Master Yunli, there is no need to thank each other. When your injury is healed, we will hunt down Meng Yi together."

When Yun Li heard this, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes. He knew that Yan Lili was determined, and he also understood that he could not give up.

He nodded, closed his eyes and rested, but silently swore in his heart that he would bring Meng Yi to justice with his own hands.

Seeing Yunli gradually falling asleep, Yan Lili tiptoed out of the room.

She knew that she had to recover her strength as soon as possible so that she could continue tracking Meng Yi.

That night, the moon was dark and the wind was strong, and Meng Yi's figure sneaked into the Grand View Garden like a ghost.

He was familiar with the route and went straight to Yunli's residence.

Inside the room, Yunli was immersed in a deep sleep, unaware of the impending crisis.

Meng Yi blew a faint incense and Yun Li fell into a deep sleep.

When Yunli woke up, it was already dawn.

He found himself in an unfamiliar cave.

The cave is deep and the water drops dripping on the stone walls make crisp sounds, adding a bit of mystery and eeriness.

Yunli was startled and stood up quickly, but he felt weak in his limbs, obviously the effect of the drug had not yet worn off.

Meng Yi saw Yun Li wake up, his face was full of satisfaction, and he said with a frivolous smile: "My wife, you want to kill me."

Yunli was furious when he heard this. Although he was a weak scholar, he could not tolerate such an insult. He glared at him and scolded, "You thief, how dare you be so rude!"

Meng Yi seemed not to have heard his words, but became even more proud. He walked up to Yun Li and reached out to touch his face.

Although Yunli was powerless to resist, he was unwilling to show weakness. He gritted his teeth and shouted angrily: "Meng Yi, if you dare to touch a hair on my head, I will make you regret it."

Seeing that Yun Li was so tough, Meng Yi was not afraid at all. Instead, he became more excited.

He sneered and said, "Yunli, you are already in my pocket now, and you still dare to speak nonsense."

As he said this, he tried to force his way closer.

Yunli was anxious, but he knew that the only way to win at this moment was to use wits.

He took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and said calmly, "Meng Yi, if you are really a hero, you shouldn't treat me like this. If you let me go, I will reward you handsomely."

When Meng Yi heard this, a cunning look flashed in his eyes. He let go of his hand, took a step back, and looked at Yun Li with interest.

"Oh? What's your reward?"

Yunli's heart moved, knowing that there was an opportunity, so he said: "Although I, Yunli, do not have a huge fortune, I do have some treasures. If you let me go, I am willing to give you the family heirlooms."

Meng Yi's eyes flickered, as if he was weighing the pros and cons.

Yunli felt relieved when he saw this, for he knew that Meng Yi had been persuaded.

Sure enough, after a moment of silence, Meng Yi smiled and said, "Yun Li, if you are really sincere, I will give you a chance. However, if you dare to lie to me, you will bear the consequences yourself."

Yunli was delighted, knowing that Mengyi had taken the bait. He nodded and said, "Don't worry, I, Yunli, will keep my word."

Meng Yi nodded with satisfaction. He untied Yun Li, but did not forget to place a restriction on him to prevent him from escaping.

Yunli stretched his muscles and felt his strength gradually recovering. He knew that he had to find a way to escape as soon as possible, otherwise if Meng Yi discovered his plan, the consequences would be disastrous.

The two men confronted each other in the cave, and the atmosphere was tense and subtle.

Yun Li was secretly calculating in his mind, while Meng Yi looked at him with a smile, as if waiting for his next move.

At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside the cave, as if someone was coming towards the cave.

Yun Li's heart tightened, he knew this might be his only chance to escape. He took advantage of Meng Yi's distraction and rushed towards the cave entrance.

Meng Yi was horrified when he saw this. He hurried to catch up, but it was too late.

Yunli rushed out of the cave and saw a group of guards fighting fiercely with the bandits. He was delighted, knowing that he was finally saved.

When the guards saw that Yunli was safe and sound, they all stepped forward to protect him.

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Meng Yi had no choice but to flee in disappointment.

With the help of the guards, Yunli returned to the Grand View Garden.

In the garden, everyone was delighted to see Yunli return.

Zhen Huan even came to offer her condolences in person. She asked with concern, "Yun Li, you are frightened."

Yunli shook his head and said, "Thank you for your concern, Yunli is fine. But that Meng Yi is really abominable."

Zhen Huan nodded: "I will find out the truth of this matter and give you an explanation."

Yunli felt grateful when he heard this.

Yunli tracked down Meng Yi's whereabouts and immediately went to capture him.

That night, the moonlight was hazy, the building was full of bright lights and laughter.

Yun Li hid in the dark and saw Meng Yi drinking and chatting happily beside the courtesan with a dissolute look.

Seeing Yunli coming, Meng Yi, who was still drunk, pointed at Yunli and said to the ladies with a smile: "This is my beloved wife."

The ladies covered their mouths and laughed, not knowing what he really meant.

Yun Li was furious, but he didn't show it on his face. He just said coldly, "Meng Yi, do you admit your guilt?"

Meng Yi glanced at Yun Li and said with a smile: "What crime have I committed? I just drank and had fun, which is the joy of life."

Yunli saw that Meng Yi had no remorse at all and realized that words were useless, so he drew his sword and pointed it at Meng Yi.

Seeing this, Meng Yi also stood up to fight, and the two of them started a fierce battle in the brothel.

Swords flashed, wine tables flipped over, and the ladies screamed and scattered.

Yun Li's swordsmanship was sharp, and every strike of his sword was filled with resentment. He vowed to kill Meng Yi with his sword.

Although Meng Yi was drunk, he was very skilled and the two were inseparable for a while.

When the fight was at its most intense, Yunli suddenly used a move called "Cascading Stars". The sword light poured down like a waterfall. Meng Yi had no way to avoid it and had to raise his arms to block it.

With a "crack" sound, Meng Yi's arm was injured by the sword energy and blood splattered everywhere.

Yun Li took advantage of the situation and pointed the tip of his sword at Meng Yi's throat.

Seeing this, Meng Yi's eyes flashed with fear, but then he regained his usual arrogance and laughed, "Yun Li, do you think you can kill me like this? You really underestimate me, Meng Yi."
