Chapter 89

She didn't want to talk to him anymore, so she stood up angrily, and just happened to meet Li Huai who pushed the door in and came in. Seeing her expression was not right, she asked, "Jin Hua, are you feeling unwell?" her hands.

It was the temperature from his fingers that Xi Lan was familiar with. She raised her eyes to look at him, forced a smile, and shook her head: "It's just that the thought of the blistered corpse in Yinghong Courtyard makes my stomach a little sick."

"Then don't think about it!"

"En." She sat down again, not looking at Zi Xuyuan.

"Calling Daoist Zi to be very sensible, I will call you by your name from now on, Xu Yuan, what do you think?" Li Huai also sat down, and before the other party could answer, he took out the roster in his hand: " This is the roster you want, I took a look at it, and in the past three months, there are as many as 40 newly naturalized Sister Hua!"

Zi Xuyuan looked over with wide eyes, "So many?"

"Jinling Flower Street is famous in the Three Kingdoms, and there are flower lovers who travel thousands of miles here to enjoy themselves. This business does not last long. If someone leaves, someone will come. In fact, after careful calculation, more than 40 people came here for three months. , not too much."

It's not too much, but it will take a lot of time for them to check it now!

Xi Lan immediately reminded: "If it takes time, will the flower demon just escape?"

This is completely possible, Zi Xuyuan stood up immediately: "The Flower Street must be sealed immediately!"

Li Huai's expression changed, "I'm afraid this is inappropriate, just to say that the flower street is chaotic, and there are hundreds of people who go out to each building, so it's okay to seal it up for a short period of time, but it won't work for a long time. "

"The seal of the poor road is not to seal the people, but to seal the demons. Along the edge of the flower street, pull up the demon seal line, and send two teams of officers and soldiers to guard the gate, so that people can come and go freely."

The demon-sealing line also needs to be set up. Red rope is used to surround the eaves and corners of the wall. Copper coins, silver bells, and yellow charms are tied to the red line. Red wax and ash incense are placed on the line.

Li Huai knew that time was running out, so he immediately asked people to prepare the things they needed, and went with Zixuyuan to set up the demon sealing line. Get out of this flower street!
Because it would take some time, and it was getting late, Li Huaihe and the Dali Temple had no choice but to requisition the backyard of Chunmanlou as a temporary place for them to rest.

For dinner, they also ate dishes from Chunmanlou's kitchen, but only Li Huai and Xi Lan moved their chopsticks. Zixuyuan sat on the elm tree on the courtyard wall, holding three white chess pieces in his hand, looking at the street. Preoccupied.

"My lord, does this line of sealing demons really work?" Song Ziyao didn't know. He had worked in Dali Temple for so many years, and although he encountered many strange cases, it was the first time he encountered a demon.

"Maybe it will be useful!" Li Huaizheng looked carefully at the roster in his hand, and he once had doubts like Song Ziyao's.

Unbelief, belief, and seeing with his own eyes, every process will cause great doubts about his own cognition. He should have experienced every process, and it is not the first time.

Xi Lan got up and walked towards the yard.

"Zi Daochang, do you practitioners get enlightened by starving your stomach?"

Zi Xuyuan looked down, and following the light of the fire in the courtyard, one could see the disgust on her face, clearly saying: Brat, do you want to become a fairy if you don't eat?
He threw a few white pieces in his hand into the air, looked at the shape in his hand, the corners of his mouth lightly raised, ready to move: "Things are left!"

Usually, they use copper coins tortoise shells, yarrow grass for divination, and chess pieces as divinatory devices, which can be regarded as Zixu's unique hobby. Baiqi is even more fond of it.

Xi Lan knew that what he meant was that the flower demon was still on the Flower Street, waiting for him to jump down from the tree, and someone would rush in from there.

"Report to the lord, just now the attics of the flower street have been counted, and there are no fewer people!"

Zi Xuyuan rolled up his sleeves and walked over, put one hand on his back, and suggested: "My lord, now we can go and check the more than forty people on the list!"

Li Huai saw that his expression was calm, as if he was sure of everything.

"I don't know how Zi Daochang judges the flower demon?"

It takes time to meet more than forty people and ask them one by one. It is estimated that they may not be able to finish it by tomorrow morning.

Zi Xuyuan is also aware of this problem. In fact, they can be divided into two teams and visit the buildings from the front and back of Huajie, which can save some time.

Although it's not convenient for Xi Lan to show off her skills, if she goes to inquire, she can recognize the flower demon as soon as she meets it.

He immediately took out the dragon and tiger jade on his body, "This piece of jade is an ancient magic weapon, if the monster is within a hundred meters, the jade will emit a light green light."

Fearing that someone else would take this thing and affect his aura, he specially stuffed it into Xi Lan's hand.

"Then——Pindao and the prince will lead people to search for imitation from the street, Mr. Song and Wangfei will start to search from the end of the street, and we will meet at the Yinghong Building in the middle of Huajie."

Zi Xuyuan said this order, and the other three people stared at him straight.

Even Song Ziyao was thinking, what do you mean by tearing apart the newlyweds abruptly?
But he emphasized with a harmless ignorance on his face: "Time is running out, so why don't you waste it?"

Li Huai stared at him intently in his eyes. After all, it was Xu Wang Li Huai, who would not get angry easily, let alone express his needs easily.

A prince, a Taoist priest, one is forbearing, and the other is advancing.

Maybe, it's really those four characters: Bazi does not match!
"Ahem, otherwise, I'll switch with the prince. I just want to ask you something about Taoism..." Song Ziyao knew the prince's heart well, and immediately came out to solve the problem.

"The poor Taoist also happens to have something to ask the lord!" But who is Zi Xuyuan?If you don't play yourself to death, you will be a Taoist ruffian in vain!
Xi Lan shook her head helplessly, "If that's the case, then don't delay, hurry up!"

She has always acted vigorously and resolutely, seeing Zi Xuyuan playing such tricks, she has silently recited 'sissy' a hundred times in her heart!

In the end, Zixuyuan really got his way. He and Li Huai started their investigation from the Chunman Building on the street, and Xi Lan and Song Ziyao started from the Yicui Building at the end of the street.

"Jinhua!" When the four parted, Li Huai called to stop Xi Lan.

Standing on the corridor, Zi Xuyuan rolled his eyes when he saw the prince running up to Xi Lan.

Who said that she won't show affection and annoy others?Talk like fart!
At night on Huajie, the cool wind blows the red paper lanterns under the eaves, and the light red halo sways on Xi Lan's face.

"My lord, I will be careful." Xi Lan seemed to have guessed what he was going to say, and turned around to speak calmly.

"Jin Hua, do you still wear the white jade Guanyin that my king gave you last time?"

Li Huai's eyes were full of worry and warmth, and Xi Lan's eyes were sour for a moment, and she nodded vigorously, "Well, I'm wearing it, and it hasn't left me for a moment."

Li Huai was still worried, and said to Song Ziyao next to him, "Ziyao, I will leave the princess to you!"

"Prince, please rest assured, Ziyao will definitely protect the princess!"

Song Ziyao is a weak scholar, and his skills can probably kill a fish with a knife. Obviously, asking him to protect the princess is just lip service.

Li Huai ordered Yan Ting behind him: "Follow the princess, don't leave two meters away!"

"Obey!" The two brothers accepted the order, and immediately stood behind Xi Lan inseparably.

To Li Huai, these were two reassurances, but to Xi Lan, they were Li Huai's clairvoyance, anyway, seeing how nervous he was, she was not bothered at all, and felt warm.

"My lord, wait a little longer, the flowers are all withered..." There was a faint voice from the corridor.

Li Huai still maintained his demeanor, and the gentleman walked over modestly. There were four new Sister Huas in Chunmanlou this March, and most of them were Zixuyuan. come out.

When crossing the street, Li Huai asked him: "Zi Daochang just said that he has something to ask the king, what is it?"

Zi Xuyuan laughed happily, he didn't have anything to ask, he just found an excuse.

Now that the prince asked all the questions, he had to answer, so he said: "Last time, Pindao used his identity as Mr. Long to help the prince seal the west courtyard of the other courtyard. I wonder if the prince's mansion is safe now?"

Li Huai raised his eyebrows to look at him, and asked him here just to ask this?

"My concubine and I have moved back to live in the palace, and the matter of the other courtyard has come to an end!"

"In this way, it is a great fortune that the Wangfu is safe and sound!" Zi Xuyuan sighed with a smile on his face.

Li Huai always felt that this guy spoke strangely and lacked discipline, but thinking he was a mountain monk, he put up with him!
But as for him, he went on endlessly. After walking a few steps, he came back and said, "The poor man seems to be bothered by the look of the prince recently?"
