Suddenly, there was a gust of wind during the night. A gust of cold wind blew past, causing Mo Xian's body to become stiff.

"Su Hua." Fang Niang continued to repeat herself.

Who was Su Hua? she repeated.

He originally wanted to ask more clearly, but he suddenly realized that Fang Niang was only a single soul and was not conscious. He could not get anything out of her.

"Just a minute, someone's coming." Shen Junlin, who was beside them, suddenly spoke up.

Mo Xian came back to her senses and hurriedly put a bottle of Mother Fang's soul into the bottle. With a flash, she walked into the alley at the back.

Shen Junlin also followed in, and the two of them hid in the darkness.

Sure enough, messy footsteps could be heard in the place they were standing a moment ago. It was hard to tell who it was.

Mo Xian wanted to go out and take a look, but she found that Shen Junlin had disappeared without a trace. She frowned. Where did that guy go? Don't mess up her plans.

She stuck her head out and saw a few figures playing with something in front of the wooden fence. Before they could leave, those people were already hurrying towards her direction.

Discovered?

No wonder that dog-man ran so fast. Mo Xian cursed under her breath as she turned around and ran backwards. She was in a hurry, but no sound came from her feet. As she turned the corner, she bumped into a firm chest. Mo Xian's nose hurt and she almost thought she was going to lose a nosebleed.

"You want to scare me to death?!" Thinking that it was Shen Junlin, Mo Xian scolded him immediately.

The tall figure didn't say anything. Mo Xian felt that something wasn't right. He had a faint sandalwood scent on his body, which she was very familiar with.

She looked up, her back to the thin, sharp outline of the man.

Mo Xian had secretly observed Qi Huaizhao's face. She felt that his side view was the most beautiful one she had ever seen.

"You are being reckless, but others are to blame?" The man was venomous as usual.

Clutching her nose, Mo Xian suddenly burst into laughter. In the darkness, countless sparks could be seen seeping out of her watery eyes.

So it was really him. He wasn't mistaken about the person that day.

"Qi Huaizhao, why are you here?" She asked subconsciously, but Qi Huaizhao didn't answer.

He directly pulled her into his arms, then stepped into the alley. His clear and cold voice fell by his ear, "Don't make a sound, someone is here."

Mo Xian was lying on his chest. His body was colder than an ordinary person's, and her palm could still feel his chest muscles, which were clearly defined. His face was slightly hot. Fortunately, it was deep in the night and he could not see it.

A tall figure suddenly appeared at the mouth of the alley. The man's aura suddenly dropped as he quickly walked into the alley.

Mo Xian also realized who he was, "Shen Junlin?"

Shen Junlin didn't say a word. Mo Xian only felt that he was approaching menacingly with a wave of anger. As for who this anger was directed at, she couldn't tell.

However, they would not come for Qi Huaizhao, so they did not know him.

Mo Xian had completely forgotten that she was in Qi Huaizhao's arms.

"Come here!" Sure enough, Shen Junlin stopped walking and immediately pulled Mo Xian out. "What's a married man hiding in the arms of another strange man?!"

Mo Xian suddenly realized that she was angry at this matter.

But she wasn't his wife. Besides, she and Qi Huaizhao didn't have anything to do with each other, so the two of them were innocent.

"We know each other." Mo Xian's original intention was to prevent the two of them from misunderstanding each other. Who knew that when Shen Junlin and Qi Huaizhao heard this, both of them had a different intention?

Shen Junlin felt that Mo Xian thought that as long as it was a man she knew, she could throw herself into his arms.

Qi Huaizhao's focus was on her tacit approval of her relationship with Shen Junlin.

The aura around the two men became cold and gloomy.

Mo Xian coughed lightly as she felt the urge to run away. What should she do?

"Follow me back to the general's manor!" Shen Junlin pinched Mo Xian's arm, which seemed to be so slim that it could easily be broken.

Mo Xian frowned, wanting to brush his hand away. "You can't speak properly if you have something to say. Do you really have to touch me?!"

Qi Huaizhao's eyes were filled with thick ink. He stared at Shen Junlin and spoke with a cold tone: "General's Manor? So this is the identity? "

Mo Xian immediately forgot to struggle when she heard this. From what she heard, the two of them actually knew each other?

"Heh, it's the same for you." Shen Junlin replied.

"One more word, I don't mind dirtying my hands."

Mo Xian didn't understand a word of what Qi Huaizhao had said. She only felt that the aura around Qi Huaizhao was completely different from that of a different person. The cloudy moon quietly peeked its head out, shining on his handsome face, which was filled with hostility.

This was the first time Mo Xian saw a vicious expression on Qi Huaizhao's face, as if he was a cold-blooded, bloodthirsty demon.

No matter how troublesome the ghost was, she had never seen him like this before.

Mo Xian was suddenly worried.

"If you don't want anyone to know, don't do it." With that, Shen Junlin left the alley with Mo Xian.

Qi Huaizhao closed his eyes. After a long time, he opened them again. His black eyes were calm and distant again.

Just now, he had lost his composure.

It had been a long time since he lost control of his emotions due to this. Qi Huaizhao frowned as he thought about that pretty and delicate face.

The scent of roses still clung to her.

No problem, he just didn't like the feeling of being betrayed.

It was as if he had said this before, and it was the truth.

A figure appeared out of thin air within the alley, bowing respectfully. "Master."

Qi Huaizhao nodded and forgot about his anger just now.

"This subordinate is incompetent. I only found one scapegoat when we investigated the matter last time, and then the entire clue ended."

"Dead?" The indifference in Qi Huaizhao's eyes was even colder than the chilly night.

"Yes. It is your subordinate who is incompetent and allows you to do as you wish. " The black shadow was nervous. His master never left useless people behind.

However, Qi Huaizhao stood with his hands behind his back, he raised his head and looked at the bright moon, "Forget it, it seems like this time's visitors are not that simple."

And now that that person had appeared, he might not be able to hurt him in his current state, and he didn't want to repeat the same mistake.

"Continue the investigation."

The black shadow suddenly heaved a sigh of relief, "Yes, your subordinate accepts the order!"

Before he left, he paused again, "Master, is it your subordinate's misconception? I keep getting the feeling that I smell a nasty smell. "

"It's not an illusion, it's him."

Clouds and mist once again covered the moon, and the vast expanse of land returned to darkness.

-

After meeting Qi Huaizhao that day, Shen Junlin didn't talk to Mo Xian again, but she didn't mind. Since he didn't want to pester her, her actions were more convenient.

Shen Zhi never lacked for money or food from Mo Xian, so she took the gold and silver and let the smart guards go out to find out what was going on. After searching for days, he finally found any news about Su Hua.

This person's name was definitely important, or Fang Niang would not be so persistent.

As the sun rose, Shen Junlin seemed to have returned to his lively life and disappeared early in the morning.

Mo Xian was wearing a light red dress with golden edges. She took a sip of tea and called out to the person kneeling on the ground.

"Don't kneel, answer while standing." No matter how long she lived here, Mo Xian was not used to having people kneel and talk to her.

The guard was stunned, but he dared not move his body recklessly.

"You aren't going to listen to me either?"

"Yes!" The guard stood up.

"Speak, what did you find out?"

"Su Hua, one of the more famous people in Suzhou, has been around for too long." The guards picked the most important things to talk about. There were too many people in this world who shared the same surname and surname, so it was impossible to find anything just by checking.

Wasn't the Suzhou region their current location? It's right here.

Mo Xian nodded, indicating for the guard to continue.

"I heard that Su Hua died in a strange way. Some people said that she didn't die and just went missing. The people who knew about what happened all those years ago were mostly dead, but someone said that there was a ten-year-old girl, maidservant, who was still alive. Maybe she'll know something. "

"Where is maidservant now?"

"Twin Peak Mountain. No matter how detailed our subordinates are, we need to go investigate more. "

Mo Xian shook her head. "No, I can handle the rest myself."

If Little maidservant was really in the Twin Peak Mountain, the guards who paid for it wouldn't be able to find out much.

Since she had chosen to live in seclusion, this information must have reached a certain level.

Mo Xian was going to check it herself.

Furthermore, the darned system definitely wanted her to do it herself, saying that she would beat someone just by thinking about it!

But then she thought, if she went alone and met a ghost that she couldn't solve, wouldn't that mean that Tian Tian shouldn't be yelling so badly?

She thought of Qi Huaizhao, who just happened to appear here. No matter what relationship he had with Shen Junlin, it was always better to be at ease while hugging one of his thighs.

System: "No future."

Mo Xian said, "What does it have to do with you? It's not like the Catcher said you can't be exposed." From her point of view, Qi Huaizhao was just a walking snitch. With him by her side, she felt safe and secure.

She sent someone to find him and arranged to meet him at a teahouse.

Hong City wasn't big, but it wasn't easy to find him either. It took the guards three days to find him.

In order to let him know that she was really looking for him, Mo Xian even wrote Yellow Talisman on a cinnabar bean for him.

-

A handsome man sat by the window. His gaze was indifferent as he looked at the people around him.

Some girls who passed by raised their heads to look at him. Although they were shy, they didn't want to look away and could only foolishly stare at him.

Next, a graceful woman appeared next to him. Her face was covered by a veil, making it difficult to see her facial features. However, just that exquisite curve alone, it was hard for this young lady to not be able to see anything.

"What is it?" Qi Huaizhao knocked on the table with his slender fingers.

Hearing the estrangement in his tone, Mo Xian was stunned. "I have something that I need your help with."

Mo Xian recounted the incident to Qi Huaizhao, but his expression remained unchanged. The tea in front of him remained untouched.

"What if I say that I'm not interested?"

That was something Mo Xian had never thought of, but as a Demon catcher, shouldn't she solve these problems?

"I can pay you." She had plenty of money anyway, even though it wasn't hers.

"Me and you? Aren't you afraid that your husband will be jealous? "

Mo Xian opened her eyes and looked at Qi Huaizhao. She felt that his tone was a little strange.
