Asking About Longevity: Chapter 428 Take action

Chapter 428 Take action

 The next day Mo Hua went to Daotingsi to report the matter.

He found Situ Fang and told the story about the gray-clothed monk who had been hired to kill him, how he hid him in the brothel, and how he killed the female nun in the brothel.

Situ Fang stared at the ink painting blankly, "How do you know so much?"

They, Daotingsi, haven't found anything yet.

Mo Hua said: "I went to a brothel, and by chance, accidentally, I happened to hear..."

Situ Fang widened his eyes and said:

 “You went to a brothel?!”

“Just listen to the music and watch the dancing. Once it gets dark, I’ll go home..." Mo Hua said with a guilty conscience.

Situ Fang’s eyes were serious: “I can’t go next time!”

Situ Fang was used to walking by the river, and her shoes would always get wet. Situ Fang was afraid that her ink painting skills would be ruined.

Mo Hua nodded repeatedly, "Don't worry, I'm going there because I have business to do. Who would go to a brothel if you have nothing else to do? I'm very busy."

He has to practice, learn formations, cook for his master, brothers and sisters, fry pine nuts for Puppet Lao, and, by the way, feed Dabai.

 It is indeed very busy.

Situ Fang sighed: "Okay, as long as you know what to do."

Mo Hua asked again: "Have you figured out how to capture that gray-clothed monk?"

Situ Fang frowned, "The Dao Tingsi will find a way to deal with this matter, so don't..."

“Is Daotingsi really okay?”

The gaze in the ink painting is somewhat meaningful.

Situ Fang was startled and thought about it patiently, feeling a little unsure.

She has been hiring murderers and buying and selling corpses for decades. She is not sure about the identity and background of this gray-clothed monk, and whether he has anything to do with Daotingsi.

In case there is collusion within the Daoting Division, she would report it to the boss, which would be to scare the snake away. No matter how carefully she acted, it would be in vain to draw water from a bamboo basket.

Situ Fang thought for a moment and said, "I'll transfer someone from my family."

 “Family?”

Situ Fang nodded, "The Situ family has a foundation-building monk in Nanyue City. I'll ask him to take action. I'll report it to the court afterwards. We'll kill him first and report later."

Mo Hua felt relieved.

He has some doubts about Daotingsi in Nanyue City, but he still believes in Situ Fang.

Mo Hua then told Situ Fang some news about Qinglan in detail, and then discussed the time, place and method of arresting the person.

 After the discussion was completed, Situ Fang thought for a while and said to Mo Hua:

“On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, don’t go.”

Mo Hua shook his head, "I want to go, and if I don't go, how can you connect with Sister Qinglan?"

Situ Fang was a little hesitant, "But after all, the opposite side is the foundation building..."

"Don't worry." Mo Hua said calmly, "Even if you build a foundation, you may not be able to find me. I can still run away if I want to, not to mention I still have senior brothers and sisters."

“Your senior brother and sister are just refining qi…”

“Although they are just refining qi, they are very powerful.”

Situ Fang thought of the deep spiritual power of Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi, and sighed:

"Fine."

 She can only make suggestions on matters decided by Mo Hua.

 This child seems to be more capable than himself now, at least in terms of formations.

Since he wants to go, he must have plans.

When the time comes, I will tell the elder of the Situ family and ask him to help take care of Mo Hua, so as not to let Mo Hua get hurt.

Even if Zhuji fights, Mo Hua should not be in danger as long as he hides far away.

 And ink paintings are very good at hiding.

　　When he was in Daheishan, Situ Fang was deeply impressed.

 …

 After the discussion was complete, Situ Fang began to deploy his manpower and also arranged for some executives to go to Baihua Tower in advance to check out the location.

These monks are all whom she trusts, and some of them are even members of the Situ family.

At the same time, she also went to Nanyue Sect and invited out the elders of the Situ family who were guests there.

While Mo Hua was practicing cultivation, he was practicing formations at the same time.

 And specially prepared a special set of Sinan sub-arrays.

 This formation is of great use to him.

On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, as night fell, Mo Hua met Situ Fang and entered the Baihua Building together.

The executive director of Daotingsi had already sneaked in beforehand.

 And the elder of the Situ family was already drinking in Baihua Tower.

As soon as Situ Fang entered the door, he was stopped.

The person who stopped her was a middle-aged female nun who was probably over a hundred years old, wearing heavy makeup, wearing bright red and green clothes, with a smiling face but mean eyes.

This female nun is the madam of Baihualou.

The Madam stopped Situ Fang, her attitude was polite, but she said in a strange way:

"Hey, isn't this from Daotingsi, Situ Diansi? Why, you came to our Baihua Building to play too?"

The bustard mother pretended to be surprised again and said:

“But...aren’t you a daughter? Oh, I understand. Could it be that you...are the one..."

The bustard mother's final voice was long, and then she covered her face with her mandarin duck fan and laughed a few times.

Situ Fang said with a straight face, "I am here on official business."

The Madam's laughter stopped, her eyes were unkind and she said: "What's the official business?"

Situ Fang glanced at the ink painting.

Mo Hua then stepped forward and said in an arrogant and domineering manner, "Someone in Baihualou stole my things!"

　Stealing something…

The madam breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile:

"We at Baihualou are doing serious business, and the girls are very responsible. How can they steal things? What evidence does the young master have for saying this?"

Situ Fang’s brows jumped when he heard this.

 Serious business? Dutiful girl?

 She wanted to tear this bustard's mouth to pieces for talking nonsense.

Mo Hua snorted coldly, "Is there someone named Qinglan in your building?"

The bustard mother was slightly startled and said with a smile:

 “There is such a girl.”

"That's right." Mo Hua raised his eyebrows, "She stole my jade bracelet. This jade bracelet was given to me by Elder Su!"

 “Elder Su…”

The bustard mother was stunned.

She remembered that Elder Su from Nanyue Sect did come here a few days ago, and the young master seemed to be with Elder Su at that time.

 Elder Nasu did indeed order green orchid.

The bustard mother frowned, and she was convinced.

These little girls are used to being poor and can't get on the stage. It's possible that when they see a good thing, their hands and feet are unclean and they take it secretly.

The madam cursed in her heart: "This **** is really causing trouble for me!"

only…

The madam was a little embarrassed, "Qinglan is serving guests, so it's not convenient. I'll examine her later. If she really takes the young master's things, I will ask her to return them..."

"This little **** doesn't know how to behave. I will beat her hard and set some rules for her..."

The bustard mother gritted her teeth and looked a little ugly.

Mo Hua's eyes were slightly cold as he listened, but his tone became more reluctant:

"No, how do I know you won't protect her? Now call her over and confront her."

The bustard looked hesitant.

Mo Hua sneered, "That jade bracelet is very valuable and heavy. If it is lost, you can't afford it!"

After finishing speaking, Mo Hua said again:

"I asked Situ Diansi to come here to bear witness. If you, Baihualou, protected that man named Qinglan and stole my jade bracelet, then I would have no choice but to report it to the Tingsi Bureau and ask for an explanation."

"this…"

The bustard mother is sitting on wax.

She doesn’t want to offend Elder Su, and she doesn’t want to offend this young master because he has a relationship with Elder Su.

As for Dao Tingsi, she didn’t want to provoke him even more.

Although Baihualou has been able to operate for so long, it has already bribed the Tao Tingsi of Nanyue City.

But the upper echelons of Daotingsi are a bunch of hungry wolves who can’t get enough to eat.

Once they are alerted, she will have to do some planning. Not only will she lose the spiritual stone, but the girls under her will also suffer in vain, and they will not be able to earn a single spiritual stone.

The madam gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, sir, wait a moment, I'll call Qinglan's **** here and ask what's going on!"

The bustard twisted her waist and walked away menacingly.

 After a cup of tea, she brought the trembling Qinglan over.

Mo Hua glanced at Qinglan and found that she had freshly washed her hair, her hair was slightly damp, her face was pale, her fingers were still trembling, and there were thin whip marks on her neck.

Mo Hua then sneered, pointed at Qinglan and said:

 “Come here, I’ll ask you something.”

There was a glimmer of hope in Qinglan's painful eyes, and she slowly walked to Mo Hua.

Mo Hua’s eyes were slightly focused, and he said slowly in a calm voice:

“Let me ask you, is that ‘jade bracelet’ there?”

Qinglan pursed her pale lips, nodded solemnly and said:

"exist!"

Mo Hua breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at Situ Fang.

Situ Fang understood the idea, picked up a wine bottle from the table, threw it to the ground, and said angrily:

 “That’s really unreasonable!”

 The wine pot fell to the ground and shattered into pieces. The sound of breaking porcelain was heard upstairs.

The Madam frowned, vaguely feeling that something was wrong with their conversation, but for a moment, she couldn't figure out what was wrong.

While he was wondering, a powerful wave of spiritual energy suddenly erupted upstairs in the backyard.

The face of the bustard mother changed suddenly.

A group of guests also stood up in an uproar and were shocked.

 “Foundation-building monk?!”

 There are foundation-building monks, start at Baihua Tower!

 The hall suddenly fell into a burst of noise and chaos.

 In the chaos, Mo Hua gently pulled the trembling Qinglan behind him. Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi also protected Qinglan on the left and right.

Situ Fang’s eyes flashed coldly, he drew his sword and said:

“Someone is actually causing trouble in Baihualou? Follow me to suppress it!”

Among the guests, the hidden Tao Ting Si chiefs stood up one after another, showed their shining blades, and jumped upstairs.

Seeing this scene, the bustard opened her mouth wide and felt cold.

 It’s over, it’s been calculated!
