Chunhuafang

One of the two largest gold-selling caves in Qinghe County.

In the elegant private room, the scar-faced leader smiled and poured Li Jiu a glass of good wine, "Brother, try this daughter's red that I have saved for eight years. The taste is definitely strong enough!"

"It's not appropriate to drink alcohol tonight." Li Jiu said lightly.

Fatty leader Chen Ying echoed, "Old Liu, you are stupid! If the Fubo Gang comes tonight and everyone gets drunk, wouldn't it be a dead end?"

"That's right, my brain doesn't work well." The scar-faced leader giggled twice and scratched his head.

"You finally realize that your brain is not working properly."

After laughing and scolding the scar-faced leader, Chen Yingying said to Li Jiu: "Brother Jiu, let's go to the elegant ones first. When the matter is over, I will invite you to the vulgar ones."

Li Jiu nodded, took out a handful of copper essence beads from his arms, and swallowed them in large gulps.

Chen Ying and other leaders felt a toothache when they saw it, and fantasized about eating copper essence beads, which made him feel a faint pain in his stomach.

You are so cruel to yourself!

Even though they fought their way up from the bottom and crossed the line of life and death more than once, they were not so cruel to themselves!

Chen Ying called the old lady over, and after some explanations, within a moment of burning incense, a woman with a white veil walked in the door with small steps, followed by two maids holding guqins.

The woman bowed and saluted several people, "My lords, do you know what song you want to listen to?"

"Brother Ninth, what are you listening to?"

Li Jiu was silent. This was his first time coming to Chunhuafang. He had never heard any music before and didn't know any famous music.

"What you do best."

The woman in white gauze nodded and said softly: "Please enjoy the Tianyuan Formation Breaking Song."

Chen Ying sat aside and introduced Li Jiu: "Brother Jiu, among other things, there is no singer in Qinghe County who can play the Tianyuan Formation Breaking Song better than her."

"Is that famous singer from the Bai family not as good as her?" Li Jiu said.

"Does Ninth Brother know her previous identity?" Chen Ying said mysteriously.

"What's the origin?"

"Ten years ago, she was the courtesan of Chunhuafang and the woman of the former county magistrate. Although she was in Chunhuafang, no one dared to touch her except the former county magistrate. The reason why the former county magistrate fell in love with her was Because she plays the Tianyuan Formation Breaking Song very well!”

former county magistrate

Some fragments flashed in Li Jiu's mind.

Ten years ago, someone reported that the former county magistrate was secretly worshiping demons. Upon hearing this, the Zhuxie Division actually found a gold statue of the demon in the cellar of the former magistrate's home! There are three bloody heads on the altar!

When the Zhuxie Division was arresting the former county magistrate, a demonic python leaped in the Daqing River. In an attempt to rescue the former county magistrate, it was beheaded by a big shot from the Zhuxie Division. After the snake's head fell to the ground, it strangely turned into a human head. It caused people at the scene to scream in surprise.

After the demon python was killed, the former county magistrate frantically broke away from his restraints, held the demon's human head, and committed suicide by swallowing a sword.

Since then, various gossips have leaked out. Some people say that the former county magistrate fell in love with the demon python, so he decided to die after seeing the demon python fall.

Some people say that the demon python was the savior of the former county magistrate. Others say that the former county magistrate was able to wear the official title because of the demon python. After being discovered, he chose to commit suicide for fear of being tortured inhumanely.

The woman in white gauze showed no expression when the past was told. After the death of the former county magistrate, she had heard countless insults, and her heart had long been like a cedar in the mountains, able to withstand the ravages of wind, snow and ice.

"Sir, can I compose music?"

Li Jiu raised his head and looked at the woman in white gauze, "Do you know the name of a monster with a big head, hair like water grass, soles of feet like duck webs, and a tongue that is more than one meter long?"

"My lord, is its saliva corrosive?"

"good."

"The demon is called a kappa, and is often called a water monkey. It is cunning and invulnerable by nature. It likes to eat human children. If you mess with it, please be careful." The woman in white gauze said slowly.

"Social?"

The woman in white gauze was confused and didn't understand why Li Jiu would ask such a question, but she still answered honestly: "As far as I know, water monkeys have their own tribe."

Li Jiu nodded, "Then I'll be relieved."

"Does the water monkey have any weaknesses? For example, it's afraid of fire?" Chen Ying asked hurriedly.

The woman in white gauze shook her head in denial, "Although the water monkey is the lowest form of demon, it is not as good as a beast and is not afraid of thunder and fire."

Chen Ying was a little disappointed when he heard this, "If you think about it, you wouldn't know."

"What did the former county magistrate teach you about demons?" Li Jiu asked.

"yes."

"No need to play, tell me about the monster."

He was more interested in demons than listening to music.

"Sir, what I know and hear are all from sinful people. The authenticity is not determined. If there are any mistakes or omissions, please forgive me."

The woman in white gauze saw that Li Jiu was the main one among them. She nodded slightly and slowly told her what she knew about demons.

As the night got darker, Li Jiu waved his hand and asked the woman in white gauze to leave the room. Chen Ying and other leaders were all in high spirits, alert to sneak attacks by monsters, as the slightest disturbance would alert them.

Until daybreak, the demon did not come. Chen Ying, who had been tense all night, had mixed emotions. He was glad that there was no sneak attack by the demon, but also regretted that he had foolishly stayed guard all night.

"Brother Ninth, I'm going to rest in the next room first. If you're tired, take a rest. I'll let the people below guard the door."

As soon as Chen Ying arrived in the next room, he felt a touch of coldness on his neck. His depressed spirit instantly reversed, and goosebumps broke out.

"Keep your voice down! Don't alert others!"

"Calm down! Don't be impulsive!" Chen Ying raised his hand and rolled his eyes, searching for anyone else in the room.

"Fat man! Do you still remember me?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Chen Ying's tense nerves relaxed, and she said with tears in her eyes: "Miss, it's you, I was scared to death."

A man in black came out from behind Chen Ying, took off the mask on his face, revealing an ordinary face, "Fatty, after so many years, you are still so timid. When you heard the news about the demon, you turned around and looked for a backer."

Chen Ying spread her hands, "Miss, the other party is a demon. If I'm not careful, I'm afraid that the grass on my grave will be three meters high next year."

"Why don't you hide at Uncle Qiao's place? Instead, look for him? Just because he killed a demon?" Jin Tongxuan looked towards the private room.

"Miss, I'm not lying to you. I don't trust Boss Qiao, nor do I trust the other hall masters. They all fought their way up from the bottom. In terms of ruthlessness, I can't compare to the hall masters and Boss Qiao. If I hide with them, I might die faster."

"Are you saying there is a traitor in the gang?"

"Nine out of ten! And he's in a high position!"

"Who do you suspect?"

"I can't say anything that's not good for the gang."

"I asked you to say it! Just say it!"

The room was silent for a long time, and the name Chen Ying finally said surprised Jin Tongxuan.

"You suspect Uncle Qiao! Do you know that Uncle Qiao is my father's most capable warrior! When the Black Fox Gang was established! He made great efforts! He is the elder of the Black Fox Gang!"

"So many people died, and Deputy Boss Qiao didn't mean to gather all the warriors to resist the Fubo Gang together, but just let his men endure! Wait for you to come back, do you think it's normal?" Chen Ying asked back.

Jin Tongxuan's face changed, frowning and walking around the room twice.

Chen Ying continued to ask, "Miss, why did you come back today? Deputy Gang Leader Qiao said you would be back in about two months."

"The carriage I was riding was attacked by demons halfway, and I was separated from several colleagues. I had no choice but to return by water, which was faster."

Jin Tongxuan paused, his voice became low, mixed with anger, "Do you think it was a coincidence!"

"Where is Hall Master Li? Didn't you meet him?"

"I saw him, and we were separated as well."

"There are not many people who know the route map for your return home, at least the general leaders don't know."

Jin Tongxuan turned the scimitar in his hand, "The Black Fox Gang is dirty again, it's time to clean it with blood!"
