Chapter 111 The Scarlet Night
Judging from Jiachen's tone, the three of them seemed to have come here specifically for this matter.

And looking at the eyes that saw all the opportunities ahead, Li Jiujiu actually had the illusion that he would soon be able to dig out the truth in the hands of these three people.

"How does the little monk know this is not the point. Miss Li doesn't have to look at the little monk with such eyes. The little monk doesn't know everything. At least... there are many things that need to be consulted by the people here."

Jiachen picked up an empty bowl on the table, and slowly poured the altar of Nurhong from Kaifeng in his hand into the bowl.

The aroma of the wine is clear, and the cool night light comes from the bowl.

Li Jiujiu knew that it was a high-quality wine just by looking at the appearance of the wine. With the light in her eyes, she saw the white shadow beside her move from the corner of her eye.

"I don't have the time to watch your performance here, I just want the result."

The woman who was replaced by Ye Lian as Ah Jing stepped forward, her voice was like a beading jade, she directly ignored Jiachen and Ye Lian, and walked straight into the back hall.

The back hall is connected to the back door, and there is an old alley outside the back door. On the opposite side of the alley is the wine merchant's mansion where Li Jiujiu temporarily lives, and is also the owner of the restaurant.

Smelling the cold sandalwood on the tip of his nose drifting away, Li Jiujiu's expression faltered slightly: "What is this girl going to do?"

As he spoke, he felt inexplicably worried, and was about to follow.

Who would have thought that the white-clothed woman, Ye Lian, swayed softly, with a gentle smile on her beautiful face: "Ah Jing is in a bad mood today, Miss Li, it's better not to disturb me at this time."

Li Jiujiu was speechless.

It was as if Miss Ah Jing was in a bad mood because of her.

But before today, she didn't know these three people at all, okay?

At this moment, the senior sister with more seniority than her looked serious, tugged at her sleeve, and said, "Junior sister..."

Li Jiujiu's expression moved, and he listened to her, and heard her whisper: "Don't act rashly, just now... I recognized that woman's technique, it is Red Lotus Karma Fire, which is only qualified to be practiced by Taixuanzong's inner disciples Superior secret technique, today’s matter, I’m afraid it’s better to leave it to the three of them.”

Hearing this, Li Jiujiu's eyes suddenly brightened with surprise, and his heart skipped a beat. He never thought that he would just go down the mountain to practice and encounter such a big dragon.

That is Taixuan, one of the three sects in the world!

Still its inner disciple!
One must know the power of the Ether Xuanzong, any inner disciple can subvert their entire Lihezong.

Taixuanzong is a righteous sect, so naturally there is no need to fight against him, and it can even be said that if there is a chance to build a relationship with him, it will definitely be a life-long benefit.

But this weak opportunity never belonged to her Lianhezong.

Because as early as 200 years ago, her father directly provoked a big man very aggressively, and finally got a mountain sword, so that her Lihezong declined every year and fell to this point.

The words of advice that my father often talked about were: fire prevention, theft prevention and Taixuan prevention.

The corners of Li Jiujiu's mouth twitched slightly, and he thought to himself that just now, that woman also had an unresolvable feud with her father, right?
No wonder there is always a sliver of hostility towards her.

When Li Jiujiu and Huang Ying were considering whether to leave, the wind and rain outside the door had stopped.

But the cessation of the wind and rain did not happen naturally, but the woman named Ye Lian gently raised her hand towards the rainy night.

The rain... then stopped.

Li Jiujiu was once again moved by Taixuan's heaven-defying means.

Seeing the monk Jiachen carrying a bowl of wine and walking towards the door, he first looked up at the long polar night, and said softly: "The moon."

Ye Lian smiled slightly, and danced her arms lightly again. This understated movement has the magical power of turning clouds to see the moon.

The dark clouds suddenly dispersed, and the full moon hung high.

The younger brother at the side saw this scene, his legs went limp and he sat on the ground.

Jiachen's gaze was withdrawn from the sky, and fell on an abandoned hut opposite the wine shop.

The hut was drenched by rain, and the east and west walls were full of desolate holes. The dilapidated scene was incompatible with this prosperous wine shop, and it was unknown why it had not been demolished.

So Jiachen asked: "Second Brother, what was the purpose of that abandoned house opposite?"

Xiao Er's face changed slightly, his eyes turned to the opposite side as he asked the question but quickly retracted, deliberately refusing to answer.

But Jiachen's unique magnetic voice seemed to contain an irresistible force, which made him stumble and grit his teeth and said:

"Then...there was also a restaurant originally, but...the scale was small, only...only a pair of father and daughter were running it. Three years ago, the man in the restaurant passed away due to illness. Not...not long after, his daughter also... He hanged himself in the store, and later... he lost as well."

Huang Ying glanced at the opposite hut with pity: "This is really a sad story."

The monks who should have been compassionate and fell into compassion together licked their lips at this moment.

A simple movement gave him a charming gesture, and he said with a smile: "I think their daughter's red must be delicious, but it's a pity that I can't drink it."

The second brother's complexion suddenly became extremely ugly.

Li Jiujiu also looked at the monk who was not distracted with a strange expression.

Jiachen put the wine bowl in his hand on the table nearby, and did not look at the wine in the bowl on the way.

He sighed softly, looked sideways at Li Jiujiu and said with a smile, "Tonight...that's the end of it?"

Although I feel that if all this mess is handed over to Tai Xuanzong's people, there will definitely be an excellent ending.

But Li Jiujiu always felt that it was a rare experience for him to go down the mountain once, and besides drinking a little wine on weekdays, there was nothing he could do to investigate the disappearance case, and he felt somewhat unwilling.

Seeing the hesitation on her face, Jiachen said meaningfully: "If the girl insists on staying here, you may end up in trouble."

Li Jiujiu blinked, looked at him and said, "Little master, is this threatening me?"

Jia Chen laughed: "Monks don't make threats, this is calculated by the monk."

Li Jiujiu frowned, but still compromised under the repeated persuasion of his senior sister, he left the restaurant and prepared to leave.

After all, the name of Taixuan is really a nightmare in the hearts of every disciple of Lihe Sect.

Walking out of the long street, when there was no one around, Li Jiujiu and Huang Ying were about to leave with their swords.

But before the sword had time to draw out its sheath, under the slight flash of his eyes, he actually caught a few sparks.

"This is..." Li Jiujiu's eyes moved slightly, following Xinghuo and Yefeng as far as the eye could see.

The black pupils shrank suddenly!
Without hesitation, she turned around and turned to the corner of the street, with a serious face, and said in a hoarse voice: "Something happened to the Zhang family!"

But at this moment, only the second brother was left in the huge and empty restaurant, with his head lowered, staring at the glass of wine that Jiachen put down.

Under the bleak moonlight, the wine in the bowl was no longer clear, but glowing scarlet like blood!
