C37 (2/2)
Cai Qilong indicated for me to wake Wang Da Gu up. I jumped off the table and raised my leg to kick Wang Da Gu's butt.
Wang Da Gu rolled on the ground and cursed: ”Who? Who the hell dares to sneak attack your uncle! ”
I coldly asked, ”Who?” You little brat, you ate a leopard's guts! It was your Jaeger who kicked him! What? ”Do you have any objections?”
Wang Da Gu stood up and touched his butt. Seeing that I was the one who kicked him, he naturally did not dare act against me.
Wang Da Gu stood at his original spot and laughed simple-mindedly: ”Jaeger, are the two Lotus Essence dead yet?”
Cai Qilong looked at Wang Da Gu in doubt and asked, ”Lotus flower spirit?”
Wang Da Gu is an honest man and would not lie, so he just said it out loud, ”Big Senior, when you and Master went to capture the Demon Empress, Jaeger and I were in a fluster. We initially wanted to look for a place to stay, but we fell into a trap set up by a little girl, saying that there are flowers blooming all over the village, and because the route is too complicated, we had to draw them for us to see, and then, we were led to the Lotus Flower Diagram!”
I reached out and pinched the fat on Wang Da Gu's waist. This fellow really has a big mouth, letting Cai Qilong know that I went to find a brothel, I have really lost all my face there, Wang Da Gu was still talking non-stop, and I was helpless to change it, I can only let him say it.
Cai Qilong said: ”Junior brother, Demon Catching Master is very demanding, how can she be easily bewitched by lust?”
I taunted with a look of disdain, ”Your waist doesn't hurt even when you're standing. Naturally, the fuerdai aren't worried about not having a woman!”
The corner of Cai Qilong's mouth raised slightly as he shrugged his shoulders slightly. He shook his head, obviously not wanting to argue with me.
Hong Jiugong took out the xuan paper from the table, held it horizontally and gave it to Cai Qilong: ”Quickly! ”Burn the painting!”
Cai Qilong threw the paper onto the ground, and activated a small ball of golden flame on his right index finger. With a light wave, the flame flew straight towards the xuan paper, and in an instant, the paper was burnt into ashes. The cool breeze blew past the ashes and then disappeared, and the bookstore also slowly started to disappear, until there was only a stone tablet standing in the corner, with four words carved on it — Lotus Blossom Book Shop.
The four of us left the Lotus Blossom Book Store and walked on the street. On the way, we saw many pedestrians huddled together, discussing something. Wang Da Gu and I were the kind of people who didn't mind watching the show.
Wang Da Gu used his fat body to push through the crowd and into the crowd. On top of the wall was a notice, which read:
In recent days, many of our town's babies have gone missing, and now, Mayor Zhong's only boy is missing. If there is anyone who knows about this, please give us a lead and find the lost baby, and we will reward them handsomely!
A woman holding a few green onions in her hands looked at the notice and could not help but shake her head. She sighed: ”Alas, I'm afraid this man is not so lucky. All the babies in the town have mysteriously disappeared. No family can find their own child!”
Hong Jiugong blinked his eyes and asked: ”Can you tell me what happened when the baby went missing?”
The aunt who held a handful of green onions in her hand thought for a few seconds and then said excitedly, ”Yes! Every time before a baby disappears, at night, there will be a strange song that I don't know the tune of. The song will spread throughout the entire town, and everyone in the town will be saying that there are demons causing trouble. For this, Mayor Zhong even went to specially invite them over.
I covered my stomach and laughed. ”Do martial artists catch demons? The Old man Hong is obviously fighting over the job with you! ”
Aunt Qingliang rolled her eyes at me and retorted, ”You don't know how, do you? What a joke! ”
