Chapter 073 Strange Ning Xi

Hearing Xiao Jing reveal his identity, Mai Xiaorou and I froze in place instantly. We originally thought that Xiao Jing was just a powerful nobleman in the North China Bureau, but we never expected that he was actually in charge of the entire North China Bureau.

man of.

Seeing that Mai Xiaorou and I were stunned, Xiao Jing smiled slightly and said, "Okay, you don't have to be so surprised. Maybe we will have many opportunities to work together in the future, and you will have plenty of opportunities to get to know me. Okay, that's it for today.

, Girl Dihuang has arranged a room for you on the second floor, you can stay here for now, everyone will come here to find you early tomorrow morning."

After saying that, Xiao Jing took a sip of tea, then picked up his bird cage and entered the wreath shop from the yard. It looked like he was leaving.

Li Dihuang said directly to Xiao Jing: "Uncle Xiao, you're leaving now. Senior Brother Li is running back and forth with Aunt Mengmeng and Aunt Zhuyao. It's too boring to leave me here alone. I want to go back to Dragon City!"

Dragon City? What is that place?

Xiao Jing smiled and said: "Girl Dihuang, it's useless for you to complain to me. You have to tell the Holy Lord to see if he will let you go back?"

Li Dihuang remained silent.

Xiao Jing smiled and left the wreath shop.

Mai Xiaorou and I did not go directly to the second floor, but went into the wreath shop to greet Li Dihuang. She smiled at us and said: "The case you filed this time is about Zhenhuang, so be careful.

Otherwise I will not spare you lightly."

She won't spare us?

Could it be that this case has something to do with her?

Next, Li Dihuang took us to the second floor without saying anything else. The room was already prepared for us. It was not big inside, but it was very clean. Most importantly, the room was very spiritual.

That’s enough. One day of regulating my breath inside can take me more than ten days of regulating my breath outside.

Seeing that I noticed the aura inside, Li Dihuang said: "The room next door is where Aunt Mengmeng lives, so this house has a lot of aura. My aunt's room has even more aura, but I warn you not to enter me casually."

Auntie's room, otherwise you will die miserably."

Although Aunt Mengmeng looks like a cute rabbit, the aura she exudes is several times more powerful than that of Li Guidao and Wang Tiehan. I don't want to provoke such a powerful rabbit.

After arranging a room for us, Li Dihuang went straight downstairs without saying anything else to me. She said that her room was next to the study downstairs and that if we had anything to do, we could go directly to her.

When I got to the room, I started to regulate my breathing and absorb enough spiritual energy. If I didn't practice here, it would be a waste.

With this abundant spiritual energy, Mai Xiaorou's life and soul also recovered at a faster pace. If we stayed here for a month or so, it would take us seven or eight months to recover elsewhere. Maybe Mai Xiaorou's injuries would be damaged.

It's completely fine.

Mai Xiaorou and I didn't say much, and the night got darker.

The next morning, when I opened my eyes, I found that I had fallen asleep while adjusting my breath again. I lay directly on the bed.

Mai Xiaorou was still adjusting her breath, as if she hadn't slept all night.

Seeing that I woke up, Mai Xiaorou said: "Chen Yu, my soul recovered very quickly here. By the way, I remember you told me about Aunt Mengmeng and Aunt Zhuyao.

Is Aunt Mengmeng really a rabbit, and does Aunt Zhuyao really have many tentacles? Are they really spies and sprites?"

When she woke up, why did Mai Xiaorou become a "problem" girl?

The last time I met Aunt Mengmeng and Aunt Zhuyao, I told her everything shortly after she woke up, but it was a pity that she never had the chance to see them with her own eyes.

But she didn't always show much interest. What happened today?

Seeing that I didn't speak, Mai Xiaorou was stunned for a moment and then said: "Chen Yu, you haven't noticed that although the spiritual energy here is sufficient, it is not pure Yang spiritual energy, but feminine soul-replenishing energy. After resting last night,

, my soul is actually healed nine times out of ten, even if I use magic, it won’t be a big deal."

I was surprised: "Is it so much better?"

Mai Xiaorou nodded.

At this time, we suddenly heard Li Dihuang saying outside the door: "The spiritual energy here is also called soul-replenishing energy. It was left by Aunt Mengmeng. It is the leader of the five ghosts and the lord of all ghosts. It can bewitch.

It nourishes other ghosts, and ghosts are all composed of souls, so these auras of my aunt have a miraculous effect on nourishing souls and ghosts."

Mai Xiaorou said in surprise: "Then for someone like you, Tihuang, who often practices with Aunt Mengmeng, your soul should be very powerful."

Li Dihuang did not answer Mai Xiaorou's question, but said to us: "Okay, you guys pack up and get ready to go. Zhang Rui, Tang Qing and Ning Xi are all waiting for you outside the door."

Are they coming?

Mai Xiaorou and I didn't waste much time. After simply cleaning up, we went downstairs.

When we left the wreath shop, we found two cars parked at the door, a black one driven by Zhang Rui and Tang Qing, and a red one driven by Ning Xi, which I recognized.

When they walked out of the wreath shop, Zhang Rui, Tang Qing and Ning Xi were talking around Li Dihuang. They were very respectful to Li Dihuang, as if they were afraid of offending him somewhere.

It is also understandable that the daughter of one of the Three Saints Li Dihuang enjoys such support.

Seeing us coming out, Li Dihuang said: "Okay, let's go as soon as you are all here. I won't prepare breakfast for you. What I hate most is cooking."

As she said this, Li Dihuang waved her hand and returned to the wreath shop. Then she hung up a sign saying it was closed, and closed the door.

A few of us looked at each other for a while, and then Zhang Rui spoke first: "Chen Yu, Xiao Ancestor has already explained this matter. You are the person involved in this case. We all listen to you. How will we arrange it next?"

."

I thought for a moment and said: "I don't have any arrangements. Xiao Jing, uh, it's Senior Xiao. He said that our purpose this time is to investigate first and then solve the problem, so we went to the place first and made some inspections there.

Let’s have detailed discussions later.”

Zhang Rui nodded, but Tang Qing didn't say anything. Instead, Ning Xi looked unconvinced and said, "You have no experience, so don't order us to go into the gutter."

I ignored Ning Xi.

The place we are going to this time is called Bainiaozhai, which is located deep in the Taihang Mountains. We need to go to a town, leave the car in the town, and then hike into the mountains to search.

Bainiaozhai is not accessible to traffic.

The car drove for more than three hours and we arrived at the small town. We rested briefly in the town and then started to go into the mountains. Actually, I didn’t know how to get to Bainiaozhai. There were Zhang Rui and Tang Qing along the way.

Leading the way.

I, Mai Xiaorou and Ning Xi are following behind.

Although Zhang Rui and Tang Qing are not members of Xiao Jing, they are important junior figures in the North China Branch, so it is normal for them to have some understanding of the important places guarded by the Xiao family.

We walked up a mountain road. At first, the mountain was full of locust trees and thorns, but after walking for a long time, we found that the locust trees and thorns had become less numerous, and the entire mountain had become sycamore trees.

The New Year has just passed, and the heavy snowfall of the past few days has not completely disappeared. There is still some white snow hanging on the branches of the sycamore trees. At first glance, it is really a grand scene of "thousands of pear trees in bloom".

Seeing so many sycamore trees, I couldn't help but sigh.

Zhang Rui said from the side: "Huangniao's favorite thing is the sycamore tree, which is why the Xiao family planted so many sycamore trees here."

Tang Qing also followed: "Yes, after seeing this sycamore forest, we have arrived at the outskirts of Bainiaozhai. After walking for half a day, we should be able to reach the inside of the village."

I couldn't help but ask: "It's still half a day, and it's already getting dark now. If it's half a day, it won't be night. Should we rest here first and leave early tomorrow morning?"

Ning Xi smiled at me and said: "Chen Yu, you are the person who speaks in this case. You have the final say on how we carry out our operations and whether we take a break or not. If you don't let us take a break, how can we dare to take a break?"

Ning Xi spoke in a weird and eccentric way. I always felt that she was not just dissatisfied with me as the talker, but also a little jealous that I was the talker.

Hearing what Ning Xi said, I said: "Okay, listen to me in everything, right? Well, let's camp here and rest at night, while Ning Xi keeps watch!"

Ning Xi looked at me with wide eyes and said angrily: "You..."

I chose to "hum" and said, "What's wrong with me? I'm the talker!"

Ning Xi said "hum" without saying a word and walked to the side.

This tent was prepared by Zhang Rui. When we entered the mountain, each of us carried one on his back. After I told him to set up camp here, everyone started to set up their own tents.

After everything was done, we lit a fire and got some food.

After eating, everyone went to bed. Ning Xi was really arranged to go to watch the night, but I definitely would not arrange for her to watch all night. In the second half of the night, Zhang Rui and I would take turns.

In the middle of the night, when it was time for my shift, I took a flashlight out of the tent to look for Ning Xi, but I found that Ning Xi was not near the camp at all.

I went to her tent to take a look and found a note taped to the tent door with a few words written on it: "You guys go to sleep, I'll go up the mountain first!"

When I saw those words, I instantly became a little angry.

The Ning Xi we met before was weird and a little reluctant to get close to him, but he was not a stingy person.

But what's wrong with Ning Xi today? He's getting unnecessarily angry and saying unnecessarily mean things. This isn't like Ning Xi.

If Ning Xi hadn't changed as a person, then she had done all this deliberately. She acted so stingy on purpose and quarreled with me on purpose!

The purpose of her doing this was to have a conflict with me, and then go into the mountain alone on the excuse of "running away in anger" so as not to arouse suspicion.

Thinking of this, my head suddenly got big. If this is really what I guessed, then what is Ning Xi's purpose? He couldn't come here to cause some damage! (To be continued)
