469 Intimidation and inducement

Butler Bai instantly understood what the master meant, and hurriedly bowed down and said:

"Sir, Mrs., rest assured, Jiang Shaoxia's strength is outstanding, and the Shen Dachuan that the young master said is also here today, but he was defeated by Jiang Shaoxia with one move."

When Lin Pingzhang heard this, the words he was about to say couldn't help but block his throat, and he looked at Jiang Yi with an exaggerated expression on his face, which looked a little funny:

"Just him?"

Unexpectedly, he was still praising Shen Dachuan's strength just now, and Butler Bai then said that Jiang Yi easily defeated Shen Dachuan, and his face couldn't help but change color. Lin Pingzhang once learned martial arts in the Zhenjiang Martial Arts Hall, so he naturally knew that Shen Dachuan was powerful, and he could be called the number one master in the martial arts hall, but he didn't expect that he was not Jiang Yi's opponent. He secretly complained in his heart, knowing that Jiang Yi's strength was so strong, it was probably impossible to prevent him from becoming an enshriner.

The white housekeeper said again: "The matter of worship is related to the safety of the young lady, and I naturally dare not slack off, so the master can rest assured that Jiang Shaoxia's strength will definitely be qualified for the position of worship." ”

Master Bai looked at Jiang Yi, and when he was questioned by Lin Pingzhang, he maintained a calm expression from beginning to end, looking calm, and couldn't help nodding secretly, and then said:

"In this case, the safety of the little girl is entrusted to Jiang Shaoxia."

Jiang Yi smiled slightly: "Don't worry, Master Bai,"

Master Bai didn't say much, waved his hand, and said to Steward Bai:

"You take Jiang Shaoxia down, and settle him first."

"Yes."

Butler Bai said and whispered to Jiang Yi, "Jiang Shaoxia, please come with me." ”

Then he left the hall with Jiang Yi, walked through the long verandah, passed through a moon gate, and came to a simple and elegant courtyard, and then said:

"Jiang Shaoxia, you will live in this small courtyard from now on. At the back of the courtyard is Miss Baimei's boudoir, the flower thieves usually come out at night to commit crimes, Jiang Gongzi can relax during the day, but he must be vigilant at night. ”

Jiang Yi nodded in understanding.

The white housekeeper pointed to a beautiful girl in her twenties in the courtyard and said:

"This Xiaoying is the maid who is responsible for serving you. What does Jiang Gongzi think, if there is anything he is not satisfied with, he can also bring it up. ”

Jiang Yi didn't expect that the treatment of this offering was quite good, and after glancing at the small courtyard, he said with a smile:

"With Steward Laobai, it's good here, and I'm not dissatisfied."

"That's good."

Butler Bai nodded, and then said something to Jiang Yi to pay attention to before leaving.

……

Jiang Yi sat down on a chair in the courtyard, then beckoned to Xiao Ying and said:

"Xiaoying, come and sit, I have something I want to ask you."

"It's good for the slave to stand."

Xiao Ying said humbly, seeing that Jiang Yi was kind and not like a difficult person, she was slightly relieved in her heart, and then asked:

"What does Childe want to know?"

Jiang Yi said casually:

"I'm also a talented person who went down the mountain, and I don't know much about the situation outside, so let's talk about the situation in Jinling City."

Xiao Ying nodded her chin and said hesitantly:

"The little maid is lonely and doesn't know much, so let's just tell me something I know."

As she spoke, she began to speak.

Jiang Yi just asked some questions related to Daomen and monsters from time to time.

After the two chatted for a while, suddenly there was a sound of footsteps from far to near, and then they saw Lin Pingzhang walking into the courtyard, with a warm smile on his face, and said to Jiang Yi:

"Brother Jiang, I was rude just now, I didn't expect Brother Jiang to be so good at martial arts at a young age, I really looked away, and I hope Brother Jiang won't blame me."

"By the way, I haven't introduced it yet, and below is Bai Mei's cousin, Lin Pingzhang."

Jiang Yi looked at Lin Pingzhang, who was pretending to be enthusiastic, and he didn't need to use his mind to spy on the other party's emotions and thoughts, he could see that he had other plans, so he said directly:

"Brother Lin, if you have anything to say, just say it."

"Okay, Brother Jiang is quick to talk, then I won't go around the corner."

Lin Pingzhang smiled heartily, then looked at Xiao Ying on the side, waved his hand, and motioned for her to step back.

After Xiaoying left, Lin Pingzhang sat down beside Jiang Yi, lowered his voice and said mysteriously:

"Brother Jiang, do you know why this flower thief was killed within a month, and why the government patrol so many masters could not catch the flower thief?"

Jiang Yi glanced at him and asked pretending to be curious:

"Could it be that Brother Lin doesn't know the inside story?"

Lin Pingzhang said quite complacently:

"I know a patrol officer of the government office, and I once heard him say that the girls who had been ruined by the flower thieves before were not only innocent and defiled, but also raped and then killed by the flower thieves, and after their deaths, they became extremely terrible dried corpses, and the essence and blood in their bodies seemed to be drained. Therefore, it is very likely that this flower thief is not a human, but some kind of demon. ”

Jiang Yi nodded "suddenly":

"I see, thank you Brother Lin for telling me."

Seeing that Jiang Yi didn't have the slightest look of fear after hearing this, Lin Pingzhang couldn't help but feel a little helpless, frowned secretly, and then advised bitterly:

"Brother Jiang, although you are strong in martial arts, you are still a human after all, I am afraid that you will not be able to deal with evil monsters, in my opinion, it is better for you to resign from this position of worship. After all, you're young and have a great future, so there's no need to risk it. ”

Jiang Yi laughed secretly, and saw Lin Pingzhang's thoughts, he should want to scare himself away.

Naturally, he couldn't be scared away by a mere monster, and part of the reason he entered the White Mansion was to see the fox demon and see what the real monster looked like. So he shook his head and said:

"No, if I leave, what will Miss Baimei do?"

When Lin Pingzhang heard that he was still worried about Bai Mei, he was even more dissatisfied in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, but just suppressed his temper and said:

"My uncle-in-law has already gone to the Qingfeng Temple outside the city to ask for a talisman for her cousin, which is enough to keep her from all evils, so Brother Jiang doesn't need to worry about his cousin."

Jiang Yi nodded: "Thank you Brother Lin for telling me these secret things bluntly, but Jiang still has some confidence in his cultivation, even if the evil monster comes, I believe that with my martial arts, I can handle it." ”

said that he made a righteous and awe-inspiring posture, indicating that he would not leave.

Seeing that Jiang Yi didn't listen to the advice, Lin Pingzhang couldn't help but be angry, with some angry expressions, and threatened:

"When the time comes, if you really encounter a monster and suck up the essence and blood, don't blame me for not reminding you."

After a pause, Lin Pingzhang said again: "If you are reluctant to pay for the offering, I can compensate you." As long as you leave Baifu, I can give you ten taels of silver, what do you think? ”

Jiang Yi was just unmoved.

Lin Pingzhang saw that the intimidation and temptation did not work, so he could only give up helplessly, get up and walk away.

……

Jiang Yi didn't care about Lin Pingzhang's attitude, just sat on the chair leisurely and calmly watched him leave.

Time flies, and it's night in the blink of an eye.

That night, nothing happened quietly in the White House.

In the afternoon of the next day, Xiaoying said that there was a girl in the south of the city who disappeared last night, thinking that she had been kidnapped by flower thieves.

Bai Mei was extremely scared, she was so scared that she couldn't sleep at night, and her spirit was very poor, so Master Bai could only go to Doctor Gu from Baicaotang to see a doctor.

Soon it was evening again.

The entire Jinling City was darkened, shrouded in darkness, with only a few scattered lights, emitting a faint light.

The night was silent.

Tuk, tuk!

A thick and distant sound of beating came from outside the courtyard wall, reminding those who had not yet slept that it was already the third watch.

The sky is covered with clouds, obscuring the starry sky, and a full moon slowly moves behind the clouds. Because the originally bright moonlight was obscured by clouds and mist, it looked a little dim.

Sou!

In the night, a vague figure suddenly swept past the courtyard wall of the Bai Mansion, came to the door of Miss Bai Mei's boudoir and stopped, then stretched out his hands and silently pushed the door open.

As the door opened, a faint fragrance of her daughter's house wafted into the air, fragrant and refreshing.

The flower thief sniffed, laughed, and walked into the room, where he saw a beautiful woman sleeping soundly on the bed.

He looked at the other party's delicate face and jade-white skin with burning eyes, and the corners of his mouth hooked up with an obscene smile. I can't wait to step forward, and I'm ready to start enjoying the warm fragrance of nephrite.

"Ahem."

Jiang Yi stood at the door at some point, looked at him, and said with a smile:

"You're the flower thief, aren't you?"

He didn't rush to make a move, but looked curiously at the black-cloaked figure opposite, after all, this was the first time he had seen a real youkai.

Although the night was dim, Jiang Yi could clearly see the other party's face hidden in the shadow of the hood, and his facial features were no different from ordinary people, and he couldn't see that it was a fox demon.

It's just that his divine mind can sense that there is an evil qi and strange power hidden in the other party's body, which is very different from the true qi cultivated by a martial artist.
