Early in the morning of the second day, Ziyi, accompanied by Duanmu Xun, took a carriage back to the house in the city.

Yintong received the letter and waited in front of the house early.

The carriage gradually approached the house, and when the curtain was lifted, Ziyi noticed that behind the silver pupils stood a woman dressed in white and wearing white cotton yarn, thinking that this should be the person who came to entrust her.

The coachman parked the carriage outside the house, and Duanmu Kaoru jumped out of the carriage first, dressed in a black suit and a silver mask. Immediately, the purple clothes were helped by Duanmu Xun to jump out of the carriage, today's purple clothes are wearing a dark purple gold-inlaid body robe, a pair of white legging trousers, a black hair hanging high behind the head, a mask of the same color, the whole person looks a little heroic.

When the woman saw Duanmu Kaoru, a look of surprise flashed across her face.

If she is not mistaken, this person should be Nie Wushuang, the palace master of Wuhua Palace.

Unexpectedly, the owner of this house had such ability, and asked the palace master of this Wuhua Palace to help him get out of the carriage!

Pursing her lips, the woman walked up the mountain, bowed down, and said, "The little woman Chrysanthemum Sect Protector Mo Lan, I don't know if the two of you are the owners of this house?" ”

Ziyi had just stood on his feet, and when he heard the woman's words, he stumbled and almost fell.

Fortunately, Duanmu Kaoru helped her in time and glared at her reproachfully.

"I don't know what Miss Mo Lan is so anxious about." Ziyi cleared his throat and spoke.

Boy! Chrysanthemum pie -

Ziyi struggled to suppress the twitching of the corners of her mouth.

Why does she always have something impure in her head?

raised his eyes and looked at the woman in front of him carefully, although her face was covered by a veil, she could still vaguely recognize the perfect outline, cold voice, and elegant temperament, which can be regarded as a stunner in the world.

"Yes-" Mo Lan hesitated, she still couldn't confirm whether the two people in front of her could help the Chrysanthemum Pie, whether they could help or not, the master had a life before going down the mountain - the person who knew this secret must die!

It's just that she and her master never thought that this person who claimed to be able to get rid of ghosts turned out to be Nie Wushuang of Wuhua Palace!

I'm afraid that she doesn't have the ability to beat Nie Wushuang, don't say it's her, even if the Chrysanthemum Sect does its best, I'm afraid it won't be able to move a single hair of others.

Ziyi saw that Mo Lan was a little hesitant, and she was not in a hurry, and it could be seen from Mo Lan's eyes that her hesitation did not seem to be just distrustful of her.

Bypassing Mo Lan, Ziyi and Duanmu Kaoru entered the house, Yin Tong looked at Mo Lan on the side, shook his head secretly, and followed in.

"Say, what's the name of our house?" Ziyi winked at Duanmu Kaoru and said.

"Haven't picked a name yet?" Duanmu Kaoru raised his eyebrows and said, "Ghost hunters? ”

"Eun, be a bit more domineering!" Purple clothes hooked their little mouths and said.

"Glamorous and ghostly." Faintly, Duanmu Kaoru spat out four words.

"That's a description of ghosts—we're going to hunt ghosts!" Ziyi muttered, obviously dissatisfied with the name that Duanmu Kaoru came up with.

"For people, those are called ghosts, but-" Duanmu Kaoru suddenly stopped, and looked at Ziyi with a smile in the corner of his eyes: "In the eyes of these ghosts, you are the out-and-out devil!" ”

"Uh-" Ziyi was a little dizzy by Duanmu Xun, and blinked his eyes before he understood the meaning of Duanmu Xun's words, and before she could say anything more, Duanmu Kaoru smiled suddenly and said, "Do you know how to write these four words?" ”

"Of course—" The corners of Ziyi's mouth twitched with a roll of his eyes.

These four words-

She doesn't seem to know how to write.

"Of course what?" Kaoru Duanmu raised an eyebrow.

"Of course it will be written! I know all four words! Ziyi stuck out her tongue - she could write "ghost", probably about the same, anyway, she remembered that these four words all had "ghost" in them.

The two of them were chatting hotly, and Mo Lan over there seemed to be a little out of breath. Thinking about what happened on the mountain, she gritted her teeth, turned around and caught up with Duanmu Kaoru and Ziyi, and said, "Please two of you must come with me!" I'm afraid that if it's too late, the sisters of the Chrysanthemum Sect will all be killed! ”

Ziyi turned around, regained his cold posture, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and said, "It's okay to go back with you, but you have to tell me truthfully, what are you hesitating about just now." ”

A woman's intuition, Zi Yi felt that this thing that Mo Lan hesitated about must be unfavorable to herself.

With the lesson of the last time, this time, she can't afford to make a loss-making deal again!

Otherwise, I won't be laughed at by Duanmu Kaoru for the rest of my life!

"I-" Mo Lan pursed her lips and said, "Please forgive Mo Lan for questioning the two of you." ”

"You're not just hesitating about this, are you? If Miss Mo Lan is unwilling to tell the truth, then please forgive us for not being able to receive it. Silver pupils, send them off. Ziyi said, turned around, and said to Duanmu Xun: "Why don't we go to the shop in Beijing to take a look, the sign in front of this mansion is engraved '魑魅魍魉'." But these four words are too tongue-twisting. ”

"'Wei' means 'the branches and leaves are spreading, and the fragrance of flowers is striking people', and by extension, 'the appearance is pleasing.'" 'Ghost' refers to a person in the underworld. When 'ghosts' and 'un' are combined, they are ghosts with a pleasing appearance. I think it's quite in line with you, why don't you just call it 'charm'? ”

"Are you scolding me or praising me-" Ziyi frowned, she was completely stunned by Duanmu Kaoru!

But the name "charm" is not bad.

"Before going down the mountain, the master once explained that no matter whether or not the master can be invited, no matter whether the master can solve the matter in my faction, in the end, he must not be able to leave a mouth to go down the mountain-"

Seeing that Yintong really stretched out her hand to herself, Mo Lan couldn't hold her breath after all, and said loudly to Ziyi behind Ziyi.

"You're hesitating because you've seen him, aren't you?" Ziyi chuckled and turned around, stretched out his finger and pointed at Duanmu Kaoru beside him, and continued, "Because you can't beat him, you hesitated." ”

"Yes! I didn't expect that the palace master of Wuhua Palace would actually know the girl, so-"

"I helped you, but you will kill me. I don't think I'll do it. Ziyi felt more and more that this person's heart was sometimes more terrifying than a ghost.

This kind of ungrateful thing, these people can actually do it.

However, looking at Mo Lan's attitude, she was also a little curious about what happened to them.

"Mo Lan begged the girl to save the sisters of the Chrysanthemum Pie, and Mo Lan promised that she would protect the girl thoroughly!" Mo Lan suddenly knelt down, and this action made Ziyi startled.

Ziyi raised her eyes and looked at Duanmu Xun, Duanmu Xun just shrugged her shoulders, signaled her to make her own decision, and after thinking about it carefully, Ziyi said: "We help you deal with things, it is inherently risky, if we can only exchange it for a guarantee in the end, I think this is not a business - not to mention, our comprehensiveness, naturally we don't need you to protect it." I just don't know what equivalent items you have in this chrysanthemum pie in exchange? ”

"We—"

When Mo Lan went down the mountain, he only thought about killing people and killing people, but he really didn't think that this was a deal, and now when he was asked, he hesitated for a while.

"Otherwise, tell us the matter first, and I will pay according to the severity of the matter. Once the matter is settled, we will set off immediately. If the negotiation is not appropriate, you can rest assured that we will not leak your affairs, which is also the duty of doing business. ”

Seeing that Mo Lan hesitated, Ziyi was relieved, after all, she had nothing to do all day now, instead of staying in the palace, it was better to take these opportunities to go to the nearby mountains and play in the water.

What's more, this time there is Kaoru Duanmu with him.

Mo Lan thought about it again and again, and finally got up from the ground, followed the people in purple clothes into the main hall, and sat on the lower seat.

Raised his hand to take the tea handed over by the little maid and took a sip before he opened his mouth and said, "Things started a month ago." Our chrysanthemum faction is on the top of Cuiwei Mountain, although it is a small sect, but the sisters in the faction are united, and they have always been peaceful. But a month ago, the master accepted a new junior sister, and this junior sister is indeed strange. ”

"Oh? What's a strange way? Ziyi raised his eyebrows.

"This junior sister doesn't talk to our sisters on weekdays, and when the master accepts her, he just says that she is born with a strange appearance and is a good seedling for learning martial arts."

"I wonder how old your junior sister is?" Ziyi was a little curious, this ancient martial arts study should have started when he was a child, right?

"Although she is a junior sister, she is also twenty-five years old, much older than all of our sisters, just because she started late, so her seniority is lower." Mo Lan replied truthfully.

Five out of twenty.

Purple chuckled.

In modern times, this is neither early nor too late.

But in this ancient period, a twenty-five-year-old woman is afraid that she has been regarded as a "broken candle".

Ziyi didn't interject again, and Mo Lan continued: "At first, she just didn't like to talk to all of us, but the sisters just said that she was older than us and had no common interests. Gradually, however, some sisters discovered that the new sister would go out to the mountains every night and come back in the morning. ”

Merlan paused and pursed his lips slightly.

"Later, a few sisters agreed to follow that Xun'er to the mountains in the evening to investigate-oh, the new sister was called Xun'er, and she said that she didn't have a surname, only Xun'er."

"And what about the results of your investigation?"

The sisters who went with them just said that they followed Xun'er to the mountain and saw her enter a cave. When the crowd tried to move forward again, they smelled a strange fragrance and lost consciousness. It wasn't until the morning when the dew wet their faces did they wake up and support each other back to the top of the mountain. Later, those sisters also took people to search for the route they remembered, but they couldn't find the cave they said. ”

"In that case, you must have told your master about the matter, right?"

"Well, those sisters told the master the whole story, and when the master first heard that Xun'er reported to her family, she only said that she was a woman who was hurt by love, and she didn't want to mention the past, so she kept her name incognito, but now that she heard everyone's words, she was also suspicious. The master called Na Kaoru into the room alone, but Na Kaoru kept silent about the things of the night, no matter how the master asked, she was just silent. Later, the master was furious and wanted to expel this Xun'er from the Chrysanthemum Pie, but who knew that Xun'er didn't say a word, and went back to the house to take the salute and wanted to leave. At this time, Senior Sister Jade secretly talked to the master about the treasure in Cuiwei Mountain. ”

Hearing this, Ziyi couldn't help but sneer.

Baby again.

At the end of the day, all the evils stem from human greed.

And Duanmu Kaoru always closed his eyes lightly on the side, quietly, not knowing what he was thinking. It was the silver pupil who kept playing with the folding fan in his hand, and it seemed that he didn't take this Mo Lan's words to heart at all.

"Tell me about the treasure." Ziyi wasn't interested in this treasure, but looking at this Mo Lan's appearance, I was afraid that she didn't want outsiders like them to know the secret of this treasure.

Sure enough, when Mo Lan saw Ziyi asking, she hesitated for a moment, but finally sighed slightly: "It is said that there are many treasures hidden in Cuiwei Mountain, but no one mentions what it is, only that this treasure can make people rich overnight, and their martial arts are world-famous." ”

"Heh-if there really is such a treasure in this world, I am afraid that this Cuiwei Mountain would have been razed to the ground long ago." Silver pupils suddenly spoke, and her voice was full of disdain.

This kind of trick to deceive children, I didn't expect anyone to really believe it.

Having said that, the master didn't believe in these things, but combined with Na Xun'er's behavior, and thinking of the cave that couldn't be found in the mouths of the teachers and sisters, these words also became half-truths. In the end, the master forcibly left Na Kaoru on the mountain, and interrogated every day, but Na Kaoru'er's mouth was tightly closed, and he refused to open his mouth no matter what. In the end, the master's methods are becoming more and more ruthless, and we sisters don't feel cold sweat when they see us, although the master has always treated us strictly, but also relatively kind, and now I see the master's appearance, a few sisters even secretly went down the mountain at night, and never came back. ”

At the mention of this matter, Mo Lan's eyes were a little sad. After all, it is the sisters who have grown up together since childhood, and now that they are gone, she is indeed heartbroken.

"And then?"

Ziyi's heart had actually guessed the end, but I was afraid that the woman called Xun'er would end up with her life in the hands of the old demon woman.

"Later, the master tortured that Kaoru to death. And he ordered her to be stripped of her clothes, and she was swept up in grass, and thrown into the mountains. Mo Lan shuddered, she had never seen her master's fierce expression, like she was about to kill all the people in the mountain.

She admits that although her master is ruthless, he is also a little harsh on people.

But the sisters lived in peace and contentment on the top of this mountain, and there was nothing else to do except the occasional small punishment.

Now, her master actually tortured the junior sister who had just joined the sect to death for an unwarranted treasure, and even refused to let people be buried in peace even after death, she didn't feel a little chilled.

But after all, it is a place where she grew up, and if she wants to leave alone, she is reluctant.
