Chapter 24 Arrogant Caracal
Chapter 24 The Arrogant Caracal
"What happened?" A soft female voice sounded, and the noisy crowd naturally calmed down. They all turned to look at Mu Jiuxian and others who were slowly walking towards them.
As soon as a few people walked into the crowd, someone immediately stepped forward to tell the story of the matter.
Looking at Mu Jiuxian's pink figure, Bai Xi frowned and sniffed. Why is this scene so familiar? The people and monsters around are basically the same people, those monsters... Why are they so similar to the scene when she came back from Dafangshan?
"Miss Bai?" Just as Bai Xi was distracted, Mu Jiuxian had already brought Chen Chong, Liu Ming and others to the former.
Bai Xi looked up and then he realized that Zhou Qinqin was standing next to Mu Jiuxian, and Lin Miaohua was the one who was behind the last few people. Seeing Bai Xi looking over, Lin Miaohua's eyes flashed slightly and quickly turned around to look at her. However, Bai Xi did not intend to expose what Lin Miaohua did at that time.
"Master Jiuxian." After saying hello, Bai Xi was not ready to speak again. Logically speaking, Mu Jiuxian, as the successor of Mu Yu, should have received the news as soon as possible.
Zhou Qinqin, who was also pink, raised her chin and looked at Bai Xi proudly: "Miss Bai? Should you give everyone an explanation?"
"What's the explanation?" Bai Xi looked at Zhou Qinqin with a smile. She was not stupid, so she naturally wouldn't be fooled.
"Hmph, I heard earlier that someone might be transformed by a demon to blind people's hearts. Not long after, there was a problem with the pill you handed in. If you don't explain it, who will explain it?"
Bai Xi raised his eyebrows slightly. Is Zhou Qinqin too obvious? "This Taoist priest, I don't know you. I wonder why you slander me like this? Sansen had personally verified that statement that day, why are you..." Bai Xi said so.
"Go, who knows what shameful method you used to deceive everyone?"
"Okay, Qinqin, stop making things difficult for Miss Bai." Zhou Qinqin said more and more excessively, and Mu Jiuxian stopped her from continuing.
"Miss Bai, Qinqin is naughty by nature, please don't take it to your heart."
"You can rest assured to be the leader of Jiuxian Dao. The little girl speaks straightforwardly. How could I take it to my heart?" There were not so many empty seats in her heart to put these irrelevant people and things.
Mu Jiuxian was relieved and said, "That's good." Then, her tone changed and she looked at Bai Xi in embarrassment and said, "But today's matter is very involved, and I hope Miss Bai can cooperate with the investigation."
Bai Xi knew that this was the highlight. He smiled slightly: "Master Jiuxian, you said, how do I need to cooperate with the investigation?"
"The older generation of grandpa and the older generation have gone to Dafangshan to deal with the aftermath, and no one in the village can really take charge of the matter. I think it would be better to be wronged Miss Bai for a few days and ask Miss Bai to stay in Chenyu Tower for a few days. One can avoid suspicion, and the other can also comfort all kinds of monsters."
Chenyu Tower was also one of the most luxurious places in Longjing Village when it was grand. It has become dilapidated since when, but now it has been in disrepair and has long become an abandoned land without any trace.
Bai Xi looked at Mu Jiuxian's smiling face and squinted his eyes. The old man once told her that the reason why Chenyu was abandoned was because there was something extraordinary inside. During that time, that thing went crazy and no one who entered lived. Mu Jiuxian, as Mu Yu's granddaughter, could not have known this matter.
"Sister Jiuxian, you are always such a good person!" I wonder if Zhou Qinqin really didn't know about Chenyulou or pretended not to know. After hearing Mu Jiuxian's words, she pouted in dissatisfaction.
As Zhou Qinqin finished speaking, the crowd began to whisper, all praising Mu Jiuxian for being kind. Of course, some people praised Jiuxian, and some naturally criticized Bai Xi.
"Master Jiuxian, are you too partial to this woman?" The rough man stood up from the crowd and stared at Mu Jiuxian with a gloomy expression. Judging from his strong aura, his strength is probably close to the big monsters and has a great influence among the monsters. Today he is probably sent by those big monsters.
Mu Jiuxian frowned slightly: "Senior Xiong Ao, the matter is still unclear now. Miss Bai just handled the pill, which doesn't mean anything. Don't worry, when things are clear, I will definitely give you an explanation."
The man named Senior Xiong Ao by Mu Jiuxian snorted coldly and spoke dissatisfiedly: "Hmph, who knows whether you are interested in joining together to target us? Now that the demon lord has been in seclusion for many years, you human Taoist priests are no longer taking us seriously!"
The demon lord he mentioned was a veritable big monster. His status among monsters such as Longjing Village is equivalent to Mu Yu's status among human Taoist priests! Everyone knows that the demon lord went into seclusion five years ago, and there is no sign of leaving the seclusion yet. Some people are already guessing whether the demon lord failed to make the seclusion.
Guo Xijia, who was lying lazily under the shade of the tree outside the crowd, suddenly opened her eyes and looked in the direction of the crowd, tilted her head and thought for a while before closing her eyes again.
In the end, at Mu Jiuxian's strong request, he seemed to have won the most favorable treatment for Bai Xi - temporarily moving into Chenyu Building!
From beginning to end, no one has ever asked Bai Xi about his wishes or said something to Bai Xi.
Haha, what a poor woman. Guo Xijia stood up lazily and stretched her body, looked at the crowd like a mocking, then turned around and left in a certain direction.
"Okay, since everyone has no objection, then that's it. We will arrange someone to investigate the matter before grandpa and the others come back. Senior Xiong Ao, please send someone to investigate together, right?"
"Okay, that's OK. But if you find out anything, I hope Master Jiuxian can hand over the culprit to us as you promised."
Mu Jiuxian nodded, then turned his gaze to Bai Xi: "Miss Bai, you..."
"I don't agree." Before Mu Jiuxian could say anything, Bai Xi smiled slightly and interrupted her next words without hesitation.
Mu Jiuxian's face looked a little ugly, but it was difficult to do, so he could only frown in embarrassment.
Chen Chong walked out from behind Mu Jiuxian and looked at Bai Xi with dissatisfaction: "Miss Bai, this is the favorable condition that Jiuxian finally won for you. Don't waste Jiuxian's kindness!"
Having a kindness? This woman settled her "crime" in a few words. She clearly did nothing, so why should she accept the house arrest arranged by Mu Jiuxian as the "master behind the scenes"?
"Master Chen Chong, have you made something wrong? I did nothing, why should I accept your arrangements for the "suspect"?" She has not earned enough money yet, how could she let this group of people solve her?
Zhou Qinqin pulled her throat and began to accuse Bai Xi: "Bai Xi, are you still crazy? If Sister Jiuxian was not kind, you would have been torn apart by these monsters, so where would it be your turn to speak?"
Many monsters around him changed their faces when they heard Zhou Qinqin's words. They were not very satisfied with what she said, but they couldn't say anything, so they could only remain silent.
Idiot Bai Xi cursed in her heart, and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Zhou Qinqin: "I don't think you need to say more. It's not certain whether you are a monster or a human being. No one will care about your thoughts. Just go to Chenyulou to stay!"
"Who said she is a demon?"
As soon as Zhou Qinqin's voice fell, her tender but serious voice rang out of the crowd. Seeing the visitor, the crowd automatically dispersed, allowing two figures, one tall and one short, to walk in.
When Xiong Ao saw the visitor, he was stunned for a moment, then quietly retreated to the side and gave out the middle position. The level between the demons was even stricter, and from his actions, it can be seen that the visitor was of great reputation.
Because Bai Xi was blocked from his sight, he didn't see who the person was. He just felt that the voice was very familiar with his memory.
Mu Jiuxian's expression changed slightly, he took a step forward, and spoke awkwardly: "Senior Deep, San Sen, are you...?"
The two people who came were Caroca Sanmo and his...father! It is not easy to practice cat demons. Although caroca is a cat, it is not in the cat demon clan. It is just related to it, but it is also not easy. Although caroca has the advantage of blood, everyone knows that an adult caroca...especially an adult caroca who has cultivated to the level of a big monster, his strength may have touched the level of a big monster! Unfortunately, Sanmo's father - Zhen Zhan, is such an adult caroca with terrifying strength.
Zhen Zhan stood silently behind Sanmo, and the oppressive aura quietly dissipated. Everyone present noticed the sense of oppression at this moment.
Sansen raised his eyebrows and was extremely arrogant: "What? What do we do and we still need to report to you, an ugly woman?"
Mu Jiuxian's face darkened, and he almost didn't recover in one breath. He looked at Sansen awkwardly: "Of course it doesn't need it."
From childhood to adulthood, who didn't praise her for being beautiful like a fairy? This guy who didn't have eyes actually said that she was an ugly woman, which was so annoying! What she didn't know was that Sansen was born with a soul-breaking claw, and what he could see was more of the beauty and ugliness of other people's souls.
"Hmph." Sansen snorted coldly and looked at Bai Xi: "Haven't I verified this woman's identity that day? Why, are you suspicious of me?" As he said that, Sansen looked at Zhou Qinqin with a dangerous look.
Zhou Qinqin's heart was a sudden striking and quickly retorted: "Little Brother Sansen, you misunderstood. I didn't mean that, it was just that something happened..." "Ba"
"Did I have a sister, Father?" Before Zhou Qinqin finished speaking, Sanmo waved her claws and drew a few scratches on the ground in front of the former, interrupting her words.
Zhen Zhan's lips moved slightly, and he said two words coldly: "No."
Sanmori nodded, looked at Zhou Qinqin, who was scared to death and had no blood on her face, and said naturally: "Okay, you continue."
