C4 Infantile nocturnal laughter

Mo Xian, who was called out, had a blank look on his face. He was even more surprised than when Lin Xiuxiu had selected her to be his maidservant.

How did Qi Huaizhao take notice of her cat martial arts?

Or was he taking revenge? But she hadn't done anything to offend him.

However, she was not the only one that was shocked, Lin Yuan was even more surprised than her.

A famous Demon catcher actually said that one of his own little maidservant was more capable of capturing demons than him?

"This, Grandmaster Qi, could it be that you've made a mistake?" She is merely my daughter's marriage companion maidservant, how could she possibly know how to catch demons? " As he said till here, Lin Yuan's heart suddenly froze, or could it be? What Qi Huaizhao meant was, this matter had something to do with the maidservant called Mo Xian?

Suspicion filled his eyes, and Mo Xian naturally could see that too. He couldn't help but facepalm, and this time, he really couldn't even wash his hands off the Yellow River.

Before she could think of a way to deal with it, the phone in her pocket suddenly vibrated twice. A woman's voice rang in her mind.

"Triggering event 'Blood Embroidered Shoes' activated. Quest Details: You must find the demon that killed Miss Lin within ten days and capture it successfully. "Quest reward is 100 gold coins and 1000 experience. If you fail the quest, you will be killed."

Mo Xian naturally understood the meaning of this extermination. It was equivalent to an entrance exam. When she first entered the Demon catcher, she had to take a similar mission. Which was to say, if she were to fail this mission, then she would completely disqualify herself from the Demon catcher. But right now, she couldn't not accept it either, as she didn't even have the chance to return.

This bullsh * t APP was really deceiving! Mo Xian couldn't help but curse silently.

She responded in her mind: Accept the task.

"I wish you success." After the cold female voice finished speaking, it fell silent once more.

Hair of a horse! Mo Xian cursed.

As soon as he accepted the mission, Qi Huaizhao started talking. He seemed to have seen through Boss Lin's thoughts, "It seems that Boss Lin does not know of Lin Family's crouching tigers and hidden dragons, and that maidservant has innate talents. If you do not believe, you can ask her."

Qi Huaizhao looked at Mo Xian meaningfully with his inky black eyes, and the latter gave him goosebumps. No matter what this person wanted to do, that day was also an inquiring look, but in her memories, she had never seen such a person.

After Lin Yuan heard this, his gaze also turned towards Mo Xian. He did not see any tricks to it, but the dignified Great Demon catcher Qi had already said that this girl was extremely useful, so he could only follow suit and climb up.

"Your name is Mo Xian? But now that young miss has died with grievances, I believe you must be grieving for her. If possible, I hope that you can help Grandmaster Qi to find this murderer, is that alright? "

To be able to put it this way, Lin Yuan had already made a very humble gesture, almost pleading with him not to be envious. With his status, he shouldn't have done such a thing." He knew that this could be a matter of life and death. No matter how brave this girl was, she wasn't willing to risk her life for a dead person.

His dry mouth once again opened, wanting to accept some gold and silver as reward, but Mo Xian opened her mouth a step earlier than him.

"Alright, I'll go." She had already accepted a mission, even if Lin Yuan did not say anything, she would still go, she just did not want to be wrongly accused.

What she hated most in her life was deceit and suffering.

He hadn't done anything, so why was he accused wrongly?

Hearing these words, Lin Yuan heaved a sigh of relief.

Qi Huaizhao, who was at the side, retracted his gaze and looked at the missing corner of the jade thumb ring.

It was night.

A crescent moon hung in the sky, illuminating the courtyard with its coolness.

The huge Lin Mansion was covered in white lanterns, which were misty, making people panic. Mo Xian couldn't help but sigh. When she first came, this place was a joyous occasion, but now, it was deathly silent.

"You were the first to discover Miss Lin's death?"

Qi Huaizhao stood tall and straight, her face like jade under the cold moonlight, and her clear and low voice seemed to come from a very far place under the moonlight.

"Yes, I want to embroider brocade with another maidservant."

Mo Xian still couldn't understand why this man would drag him into this. He only met two or three people in total.

Who was he?

"When I went there, she had already passed out and there was no value in asking. "But you, have you seen anything suspicious?"

Qi Huaizhao's gaze did not fall on Mo Xian's body the entire time, so Mo Xian did not know what he was thinking about.

However, when she was mentioned by him, she recalled the scene from that day.

The red wedding dress that Lin Xiuxiu was wearing did not seem to be anything special. Instead, it was a pair of dark red embroidered shoes. When the embroidered cloth was taking off her shoes, she had said that this pair of shoes did not seem to be Lin Xiuxiu's dowry.

No wonder she felt those embroidered shoes were so uncomfortable.

"If there's anything fishy about it, it's very likely to be those embroidered shoes. Lin Xiuxiu had committed suicide while wearing her bridal dress and a pair of embroidered shoes that did not belong to her. But, very strangely, I can't feel any demonic Qi from those shoes. "

In any case, Qi Huaizhao had seen her underhanded skills, he could only say what he wanted to say.

"Not surprising. Some of them have deep cultivation experience, and are not something you can see. "

Mo Xian's forehead was covered in cold sweat. Is there anyone who despises people this much? Once she becomes a top Demon catcher, she will definitely compete with this person and go back to the 21st century!

Qi Huaizhao pretended not to see Mo Xian's expression and directly headed outside.

"Hey, where are you going?" Mo Xian immediately followed.

"The mourning hall." "Keep up."

Lin Xiuxiu's mourning hall was located in the main hall of the Lin Mansion, so when they walked from the back of the courtyard, it did not even take the time it took to make a cup of tea.

At this time, there was already no one inside, Qi Huaizhao told Lin Yuan to only send people to guard outside the door, if Lin Xiuxiu went crazy, it was not something that ordinary people could do.

A cold wind came from nowhere, making people feel a chill on the back of their neck.

Mo Xian looked at the spirit hall that was as quiet as a graveyard, and felt goosebumps all over his body.

"What are we doing here?" She looked at Qi Huaizhao who was walking towards the coffin and asked softly. However, even though it was extremely soft, it still sounded especially loud in the quiet Spirit Hall.

The head did not even turn back as the clear and cold voice said, "Check the corpse."

In the center of the mourning hall was a black walnut spirit tablet with the words "My Daughter Lin Xiuxiu's Position" written in gold. On both sides of the tablet were white candles the size of an arm, which looked quite terrifying.

Mo Xian actually couldn't understand why the people of this town would still look so conservative after the Qing Dynasty. It was just like how stubborn the Great Empire was before it died.

The coffin was sealed, but because it was not the time for burial, and Lin Yuan heard that his daughter had died a violent death, he delayed the funeral.

Qi Huaizhao called out to Mo Xian, "Come over and open the coffin."

Mo Xian frowned, was this man a man or not, for girls to do such a thing?

The person who was scolded by her saw that she still hadn't stepped forward, so her jade-like face turned serious. "You're still not coming?"

Mo Xian rolled her eyes, what the hell? Her current identity was only that of a maidservant, endure!

The coffin was very heavy, and it almost took Mo Xian a lot of effort to push it away.

Its body, under the weather with no ice cubes, gradually started to rot. Unfortunately, Lin Yuan got someone to put in a lot of dried petals from the peony flower, saying that Lin Xiuxiu liked this kind of fragrance the most.

Mo Xian's stomach churned, but in order to find clues, he had no choice but to hold on.

Qi Huaizhao took out a white handkerchief from nowhere, covered his mouth and nose and then stepped forward to check.

Mo Xian glared, this sissy! Couldn't he prepare one for her as well?

Lin Xiuxiu's skin and flesh started to show signs of rotting. His face was black and purple, and the red scar on his neck was also abnormally black. He had already changed into a black and gold silk longevity suit. The pair of dark red embroidered shoes on his feet were very eye-catching.

The two of them looked at it carefully. From the beginning to the end, there wasn't anything special about it.

Before she could say anything, Qi Huaizhao spoke out first, "Here, there is a white silk word for 'Yue'."

"Yeah, I saw it." She pondered for a moment. "Does this mean that the demon is the original owner of the embroidered shoes?!"

Qi Huaizhao nodded indifferently.

"Hu!" Suddenly, a strong gust of wind blew out the two white candles on the altar, causing the mourning hall to fall into darkness.

Mo Xian wasn't able to adapt to this pitch-black environment for a while, but there was a "bang" sound from inside the coffin.

Under the light that shone in from outside the window, Mo Xian slowly saw the outline of a person sitting up. It was Lin Xiuxiu.

She was shocked, and her mind went blank.

"Oh?" She wanted to let Qi Huaizhao take Lin Xiuxiu down, but the latter let out a "hush" and she no longer dared to make a sound.

At some point, the two figures guarding outside the courtyard had fallen down as well. It was at this time that Mo Xian heard a "bang bang" sound, and something neither light nor heavy smashed into the ground.

It was a ball.

"Heehee."

This inhuman voice kept on drilling into Mo Xian's ears. Somehow, she suddenly felt as if she was dreaming of the feeling of falling from a tall building, and wanted to find someone to grab.

The person beside her stood up tall like a pine tree, inexplicably giving people a sense of security. Mo Xian quickly pounced in his direction, and actually bumped into a man who was carrying an unknown fragrance.

It was spacious and cold, but it gave people peace of mind.

"I finally understand why you hid your ability to catch demons. With your courage, if it comes out, you will lose face for us Demon catcher."

Mo Xian was mocked for a while, but now was not the time to play the hero. The thing outside was too powerful, so she was a little terrified.

Qi Huaizhao's voice had just been swallowed up by the darkness, when Lin Xiuxiu who had been sitting up in shock suddenly spoke, as if he was rusted by the iron door. "Your baby is playing around, your mother will cook for you."

After she finished speaking, the sound of the ball hitting outside suddenly became louder. The child's laughter was creepy. It sounded like he was laughing, but also a bit tearful.

Mo Xian admitted that she was not that afraid, but for some reason, she felt a wave of dizziness, and her vision turned black as she lost consciousness.

Qi Huaizhao reached out to catch the woman in his embrace, his thick black brows slightly furrowed and the light in his eyes flickering.
