The psychic Xi ​​Lan

Chapter 90 The Flower Demon's Hideout
Li Huai stopped, and glanced calmly at the cheek of the daoist, "A person has three thousand troubles. Living in the world, he naturally has troubles. He is no better than a practitioner like the Taoist priest!"

With one hand behind his back, Zi Xuyuan held the white pieces in his hand to play with, and after a while, he said: "Actually, the poor are not born in the world, nor can they be considered as practitioners, and the three thousand hairs are still on their heads. , naturally there are also many troubles, let's take this flower demon as an example, how she hides in this flower street without being discovered by me, that is what I have never figured out..."

As he spoke, he intentionally paused, diverted the conversation elsewhere, and said: "Xu Yuan was an orphan since he was a child. He grew up with his master in Nanxian Mountain. He even met his mother. The last time he entered the palace, he saw the mother-child relationship between the prince and Concubine Yu. Deep, really enviable!"

Li Huai's eyebrows moved slightly, and the light in his eyes also changed. There was clearly something in Zi Xuyuan's words, but he said it so cryptically, what exactly was he trying to say?
However, he didn't want to point it out directly, so he played haha ​​with the other party.

"Everyone has his own destiny. Don't you Taoists all pay attention to cause and effect? ​​Zi Daochang is a person with immortal roots, and his destiny is naturally different from others."

Zi Xuyuan thought to himself, knowing that he meant something, but still pretending to be stupid, it really is a stuffy jar, it won't break, it will be hidden forever.

"There is indeed a difference. Before Xu Yuan went down the mountain, the master told me that this downhill will lead to a century-old catastrophe. I thought I was a mountain trail, and I didn't have this kind of ability, but now I recall the master's words again, that is, The traction, of course, was not initiated by me, and now seeing the prince himself, I am suddenly enlightened, and suddenly enlightened!"

His words are not false.

On that day, Daoist Qingyang was on the Nanxian Guanxing Peak, and saw that the astrology was different, so he called Zi Xuyuan, and sent a blood-written secretary that had been kept in Nanxian Mountain for seventeen years to Tianling Town in the north. You must personally return it to Long Xingtian, the head of the Longmen, and tell him that if Long Xingtian has something to ask, he does not need to rush back to the mountain.

"Master, the direction of the Taihe star is changing, and there seems to be a change of a different master in the world. I don't know how this blood secretary is related to the upcoming catastrophe?"

"Xu Yuan, what do you think of this purple-gold dharma sword?" Daoist Qingyang pulled out his own sword, and under the moonlight, the sword was awe-inspiring.

This dharma sword with the spirit of a fairy is naturally a superior dharma weapon, and he has been pitying him for a long time!

Then he praised: "It can't be better!"

"Do you know that this sword has beheaded the heads of innocent people?" Qingyang's eyes changed, and his old face was marked by years of wisdom.

"It is said that Master Master Chongyu obtained this sword from the demon way, and obtained the purple gold from the ground to attract spiritual energy. He cut off the heads of several Taoist boys, stained blood and sucked spirits. It is a heinous crime!"

Qing Yang nodded, "That's right, the sword is a good sword. It has the power to cut tendons, break bones, and kill souls. Such a good sword, if it falls into the hands of the ground, it will become a murder weapon. In the hands of Daoist Chongyu, It is a sharp weapon for slaying demons and demons!"

The truth that the master taught is almost a Zen theory that Taoist people would talk about when Xu Yuan was practicing art from a young age.

But every time he listens to it, he can realize different principles from it.

Swords are good, but good and evil are measured by the good and evil of those who wield them.

Qing Yang said: "The 500-year reincarnation of the magic way is not only the change of the Taihe star. Today, the next day is divided into three. Soon, the war will bring countless lives to death. We retreated and were born in Nanxian Mountain. Cultivating Taoism for ourselves is more common. Now, It's time to enter the world, Xuyuan!"

"The disciple is here!"

Daoist Qingyang handed the purple-gold sword into his hands, "This time you go down the mountain, you will have to survive a catastrophe, and you will be dragged into this century-old catastrophe, master let you go—"

The master expected that there would be wars in the near future, and now he is involved with Li Huai because of Xi Lan's matter, just like Xi Lan, since the first time he saw this magnanimous Seventh Prince, he has seen the sign of destiny.

At the beginning, the master used the principles of the Zijin Sword to enlighten him, but he only now understood what Master Qingyang meant.

Throughout the ages, there have been foolish rulers and wise rulers, there have been weak and incompetent people, and there have been virtuous and wise rulers. Faint rulers cannot tolerate loyal ministers, and wise rulers cannot do without counselors. It stands to reason that a ruler is a man and a subject is a sword, but the master compares the emperor to a sword A peerless sword, and the courtiers who assist him are compared to those who wield the sword.

Master is a person of great wisdom, so Zi Xuyuan naturally wouldn't question it.

I also understand the meaning of Master's words. In short, he is asked to go down the mountain to assist Mingjun, stabilize the world, and save the common people!
Such a big responsibility, master, an old man, actually handed it over to him, how could he, Zi Xuyuan, have any virtue?He De He Neng, my heart is full of emotions, I'm afraid I can't bear it!

Turning his eyes back to his eyes, Xu Wang Li Huai has a destiny, so there is no need to doubt that he will go through many disasters and escape from death.

Now that Xi Lan is marrying him as a concubine, the journey is long and difficult. What's even more tragic is that she will live and die with him, but cannot share wealth and honor. He sighs in his heart!

"Could it be that Xu Yuan can also observe the future?"

He smiled wryly and shook his head, "Is the future just for mere mortals to see what they see?"

What they can see is causal fate and reincarnation, but it is definitely not the future.

The future is in reincarnation, reality can be cultivated, and it is unpredictable...

Immediately ahead, we will arrive at Fengyue Pavilion. Fengyue Pavilion is a relatively old brothel in Huajie. The previous bosses are all women who can sing and dance, so knowing that it is more elegant, but these years, compared with other peers who came up later, it has declined. There are many, and the newcomers to Huajie in March are the fewest. There are only two young women from a good family who have fallen into poverty. The two asked some random questions, such as what they did at home before and why they came to Jinling. such as.

When they came down, Li Huai walked in front, Zi Xuyuan followed, and several Wang Fuwei of the 'di' team followed behind.

Suddenly, a drunken woman rushed over, calling out: "Chen Lang, Chen Lang, you came back to look for me, right?"

The woman grabbed Li Huai's sleeve, knelt on the ground and wept.

The Wang Fuwei at the back hurried over to try to grab and tear it away, and the sober Hua sisters in Fengyue Pavilion were afraid that they would hurt their sisters, so they hurried over to intercede.

"My lord, calm down. Lu Hua made a slip of the tongue while drinking. She didn't mean any harm."

Lu Hua was pulled away, and Li Huaisu smoothed the sleeves that were messed up by her face. He raised his deep eyes and looked at the women around him. He found that the girls here were a little different from those in other brothels. But something is always wrong.

The face is obviously white, but it feels blue and red inside the powder. Many of the faces on the left are pointed, but the faces on the right are round!
Zi Xuyuan also noticed this, and hurriedly called the boss of Fengyue Pavilion to come over.

The boss was only in his early 30s, with a bit of good looks, and was known as the Thirteenth Sister in Huajie back then, and she played the piano well.

Now the thirteenth sister has become the thirteenth sister, and she saluted respectfully when she saw the prince.Ask: "What is your order?"

"What's wrong with their faces?" Li Huai asked, pointing to the green-veiled woman who was the closest, and the other party immediately buried her face intentionally, for fear of being seen by others.

A trace of embarrassment immediately appeared on Thirteenth Sister's face, and she explained: "I accidentally fell down the stairs, and my face was swollen!"

Li Huai naturally didn't believe it, "Accidentally fell down the stairs? Most of the girls in Fengyue Pavilion fell down the stairs?"

The other party knew that they couldn't fool him, so they had to confess: "Actually, I didn't fall down the stairs. I was afraid that the prince would make a joke. Yesterday my girl's guest was snatched away by the girl from Yinghonglou. They reasoned, but it didn't make sense, and the two sides fought, but even so, we still have to do business tonight, so let them put on thicker makeup..."

So the cover is really empress dowager. At first glance, I thought it was a corpse makeup, which made people panic.

In this way, Li Huai is satisfied!
But Zi Xuyuan approached curiously and asked, "Since it's your guest, how could it be snatched away by the girl from Yinghonglou?"

As far as he knows, the excitement of the Yinghong Building is even higher than that of the Chunman Building. They have the most girls, the most stocked goods, and the largest place. Every day, there are huge crowds of people. He went to Yinghonglou to settle down, but there were too many people to squeeze in, so he chose Chunmanlou, the second place in Huajie.

Since the business of Yinghonglou is so good, why bother to grab the customers of Fengyue Pavilion who feel like they are going to close at any time?
Thirteenth Sister said again, "The guest who robbed was always Mr. Chen, a frequent visitor of our Fengyue Pavilion. Mr. Chen went to Huajie, only to our Fengyue Pavilion. A few days ago, someone reported that the woman in Yinghonglou was more enchanting and seductive. The skills are always inferior to our Fengyue Pavilion. The benefactors who come to our Fengyue Pavilion are all refined scholars who cherish their talents and understand their skills. Naturally, this Mr. Chen was mentioned in the words. I am afraid that he is from Yinghonglou. So seeing Mr. Chen coming, he came out to seduce Meita."

"So this Mr. Chen was really hooked?"

The Lu Hua who was still in a drunken madness just now seemed to be more sober when he heard it, and sat aside and said loudly: "How could it be possible that an arty young man like Chen Lang would hook up with them just because of their flirtatious poses? They are obviously the ones who gave Chen Lang Chen Lang was deceived by drugging."

Drugged!Zi Xuyuan put the white pieces he was playing with into his bag, his eyes lit up. "Did you see what drugs they used?"

Asked this way, these women couldn't speak, and stared at him stupidly.

Only that Lu Hua sat there crying and said: "Chen Lang and I have known each other for more than three years, how can I not know what kind of person he is, woo woo woo..."

He shook his head helplessly, even a Taoist ruffian like him could tell that this kind of resentful woman looked like a woman, but he just didn't want to believe that a man who had known him for more than three years was just seduced by other charming and soft sisters, right?

"Yinghonglou is the brothel where Luo's body was found in the ancient well, right?" Li Huai added something meaningful.

Zi Xuyuan nodded, "But the first corpse is not in Yinghong Building, but in Xiangyuan Building at the end of Huajie."

There is a distance between these two places, the flower demon killed someone, where were the clothes of the deceased thrown?

The clothes of the deceased are vital evidence, and they should still be in the flower street at this moment, maybe in the flower street room where the flower demon disguised himself. Li Huai immediately ordered to search the whole street.

Here, Xi Lan and Song Ziyao have quickly gone through the three houses and interviewed ten people, several of them are new to this industry, it is convenient to ask, and you can tell whether what the person said is true by looking at their faces.

Sitting in front of him was a 14-year-old girl with a delicate face and a thin body.

"Your father sold you here for ten taels of silver?"

"Ah."

Xi Lan said, "Show me your palm."

The girl timidly stretched out her two little hands. After looking at them, she waved her hands, "Next."

Along the way, Song Ziyao always thought that the person who should be the one who asked questions should be him, the Minister of Dali Temple, but seeing that the princess had already questioned 11 people quickly, he felt a little bit depressed and asked cautiously: "Princess, you only asked two questions." If you let people go with just one question, will you miss something?"

She tilted her head slightly, her psychic eyes could tell if she was a demon or not, not to mention that the dragon and tiger jade on her body didn't respond at all, it was absolutely fine, she could ask a few questions!

"Does Master Song have anything to ask? If so, don't worry about my princess, just ask."

Song Ziyao asked, of course he asked the Lord Bolai to record everything everyone said, just like interrogating a prisoner!
So when I saw her acting like a homely person, my intuition was wrong.Xi Lan naturally saw his strategy, and without waiting for his answer, she smiled and said, "Then, next, Master Song will ask the question!"

She sat next to her and waited for the other party to ask.

This delay was much slower than Zixuyuan and Li Huai's. When they arrived at Yinghonglou, Zixuyuan had already interviewed five girls!
Because it is the largest brothel on Huajie, in the past three months, Yinghonglou has had the largest number of newly naturalized flower sisters. There are more than forty people, and ten of them come from Yinghonglou.

Seeing that people were about to see each other, Zi Xuyuan's brows became more and more wrinkled!

"Could it be, where did I make a mistake?" There are only five people left, will the flower demon appear among these five people?
At this moment, Li Huai was standing behind the fence on the second floor, seeing Xi Lan and Song Ziyao coming in one after another, followed by Yan Ting and Yan Ming, feeling a little relieved, went downstairs to meet them.

"Jin Hua, is there anyone suspicious?"

Xi Lan took out the dragon and tiger jade and shook her head. "No."

"Xuyuan is interrogating the last five girls on the list, maybe..." He wanted to say, maybe, the soul-absorbing flower demon they were looking for was among the five, but his voice hadn't fallen yet. After finishing, I saw the dragon and tiger jade in Xi Lan's hand lit up!
At the same time, behind the red curtain on their right, a figure quickly flashed past.
