Strange Tale

Si Ren followed Ah Jiu into the room.

"Sit down." Ah Jiu closed the door and looked at Si Ren tenderly.

Si Ren smiled, pulled out a chair and sat down unnaturally.

Ah Jiu walked in front of Si Ren and leaned on the table, "The two who came with the young master, one is a fairy and the other is a dead person. Is what Ah Jiu said right?"

Si Ren was not very surprised, "Hehe, yes, but I didn't expect you to say it directly."

"So the young master knows what Ah Jiu is?"

Si Ren thought for a while, "I am not talented, but I know some spells, and I can see the girl's evil spirit. But I don't mind, should human beings be treated equally. Wasn't it all set at the end of the Lich War a hundred years ago?"

Ah Jiu smiled, "Hmph, it's just talk, I haven't seen anything that can be done. The young master was not born at that time, right?"

"Hey, Master told me. He said that as long as monsters don't harm people, people can't hurt monsters casually. So you can do what people can do. We will pay the full amount. I don't mind if you're a goblin..."

"Hahahaha..." Ah Jiu bent down with a smile, "That day a foolish boy came, and today you are such a funny little mage. You people in Yancheng are really interesting."

"Hehe, the girl won the prize..."

Pa——Ah Jiu suddenly slapped the table.Before Si Ren could get over it, she already blushed furiously, "But you didn't come here to find a girl at all, did you?!"

"Ah?! What's wrong with you? Miss Ajiu, why are you so angry? Although my two friends are not human... er, no, not living... er, not right... Anyway, you can't discriminate against them Ah!" Seeing that the truth was about to be revealed, Si Ren could only pretend to be stupid.

But Ah Jiu didn't care what he said at all.Stretching out his jade arm, he pointed at Si Ren's nose with a light-white finger, "Don't pretend to be garlic, that little skinny guy with a white face is a rare monster in the world, how can you meet him casually? Obviously someone came here specially! Tell me! Did that old hag send you here?!"

Si Ren was stunned: Old hag?Among the people he knew, there was only one person who could be called an old witch.But no matter how you think about it, she shouldn't have anything to do with this matter!

"You...are you talking about...alone alone?"

"Dudu Diwan? Who is that?! Isn't 'Diwan' the surname of witches that has been cut off for generations? Ah──Okay, I see, the old hag has found so many helpers! I Didn’t she say that she would bring everyone there according to her request?! Why did she send someone to kill me?! Didn’t she say that she didn’t want my heart?!”

"What are you talking about?!" Si Ren was completely confused.

Ah Jiuzheng said so much, he ignored Si Ren at all, retracted his fingers and turned into a knife, "You don't have to quibble anymore! I thought you were interesting just now, it's a pity to die. I didn't expect you to be so stubborn." Ling refused to admit that a good sorcerer should be ordered by a demon. Hmph! Anyway, you are missing one, and if you add exactly 81 of you, I will be able to rescue Xiaozheng!"

"Who is Xiaozheng?!"

"Die! Bastard!"

"Sister! Please listen to people, okay?!"

Ah Jiu suddenly opened his mouth and exhaled white air, and Si Ren immediately smelled a strange fragrance.

It's a demonic aura—but it's not an ordinary demonic aura. It's a demonic aura that only the two immortals of the yellow fox who have lived for more than a thousand years can have, and it's more powerful than any Mixiang.

The antidote that Si Ren had taken beforehand did not work at all.He raised his hand and scratched randomly twice, his eyes darkened, and he fell to the ground with a bang.

When Lu Xian and He Ziming arrived at Lanyue Palace, the old bustard was drinking with a table of regular guests.As soon as she heard that the two adults had arrived, she rushed out with a handkerchief.

"Oh! Isn't this Master Lu and Director He?! What kind of wind..."

He Ziming picked up the old bustard, "Where are General Long and Mr. Si?!"

The old bustard was frightened, "Wh... what is Mr. General's? I... I don't know!"

"Zi Ming!" Lu Xian pulled He Ziming's hand away, "Have there been three people here just now: one is tall and strong, the other is only seventeen or eighteen years old, and there is a handsome and handsome young man who is neither fat nor thin. Is this your first time in a brothel?"

"Oh." The old bustard straightened his clothes and looked at He Ziming and Lu Xian with lingering fear, "Those three people are upstairs."

"Take me to them."

"Ah? Not good? Although the two are officials, they haven't broken any laws? They must be doing right now..."

He Ziming took out his gun and put it on the old bustard's head.

Result: The girls named Chang'e and Jingjing both passed out.Si Ren and Ah Jiu's room was already empty, and there was no one at all.

"Tell me, where did that girl named Ah Jiu take Si Ren?" This time it was Lu Xian who drew out the knife and put it on the old bustard's neck.

The old bustard immediately became paralyzed, and sat on the ground with limp legs, crying and telling all the things she knew about Ah Jiu, "Your Excellency, I don't know what happened to that Ah Jiu—she is I sold myself a month ago and said that I like men with no experience. Other customers usually share money with me, but the first time the man gave me all the money. She is beautiful and can serve others. Of course I am very happy. I happily accepted her──I gave her all I could for the first time visitor──I really don’t know what’s going on──”

"Then think about it carefully. Does it mean that the customers who came to the brothel for the first time all entered her room and never came out again?"

"This... People come and go all day long, how can I remember?"

"Don't you know if the money is collected or not?"

"The money is either given to me in advance, or Ah Jiudai collects it and gives it to me."

Lu Xian frowned and stopped talking.

The old bustard stretched out his fingers and saw the girls and servants who had something happened, "you! And you——think about it! Has anyone noticed? Is it like what the adults said? ?!"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, saying that there were too many guests to remember.

Lu Xianzheng was at his wit's end, when a member of the Ministry of Internal Affairs patrol ran in, "My lord! I found the marks left by General Long and Lord Yechang!"

"Take me to have a look!"

Not far from the back door of Lanyue Palace, Lu Xian and He Ziming saw the mark they had agreed upon in advance—a "ten" left by a fire.

Lu Xian ordered to follow the signs to find it, and He Ziming sent a team to look at Lanyue Palace first.

Long Jiuhe often followed the scent of the fox and Si Ren's scent and quickly left the city to Churi Mountain in the east of the city.Churi Mountain is too big, not only is the road difficult to walk, but the forest is also extremely dense, and towering trees that have grown for an unknown number of years are everywhere.

After walking for a long time, Long Jiuhe often saw the marks left by themselves.

I often look at Long Jiu, "We're lost! How is it possible?!"

Long Jiu thought about it, kicked off the ground and jumped up, wanting to fly into the air, but before he jumped too high, a tree branch came from somewhere and pulled him back to the ground.

And often quickly catch him and help him stand still, "Is it a dryad?!"

Long Jiu turned his head and looked around, "No wonder he lost his way. What kind of fox is this? It's so powerful!"
