104: Section 104

“The golden one looks better.”

“Come, put it on me.”

After speaking, Huang Qingwan sat down in front of the dressing table and handed the Phoenix hairpin to Su Mo.

Seeing Huang Qingwan’s actions, Su Mo immediately understood her intention.

If he remained oblivious, it would be too insensitive.

“As you command, Madam.”

Then, Su Mo directly took the Phoenix hairpin and gently inserted it into Huang Qingwan’s coiled up bun.

With the Phoenix hairpin, Huang Qingwan appeared even more graceful and noble.

Su Mo couldn’t help but reach out and massage Huang Qingwan’s shoulders. Through the silky fabric, he could feel the astonishing warmth beneath.

Huang Qingwan’s eyes were a bit hazy, and she did not refuse his actions.

“How has the restaurant’s business been recently?”

“Hmm, not so good.”

“It’s all because of that Demon incident. There are hardly any people on the streets now.”

“Since that’s the case, then the restaurant should remain closed for now…”

Suddenly.

Huang Qingwan’s face turned completely red.

Su Mo became increasingly bold, even reaching his hand forward, taking liberties through her brocade jacket.

“Mother, I heard Steward Su is here.”

Just then, Guo Lin’s voice came from the courtyard.

Su Mo was startled, quickly withdrew his hand, and retreated several steps, leaving a safe distance.

A hint of disappointment flashed in Huang Qingwan’s beautiful eyes, then she rose.

“Yes, he’s here.”

At this moment, Guo Lin walked in.

Seeing that Su Mo and Huang Qingwan were a full three meters apart, she breathed a huge sigh of relief.

Su Mo, however, noticed that Guo Lin’s small face was a bit pale, and there seemed to be tear stains at the corners of her eyes.

This made him feel a little heartache.

Could it be that she knew about her father’s matter?

Chapter 105: Fahai: Su Shi Zhu, you have a connection with Buddhism

“Sister, this is the thirty-something Linjiang City we’ve searched. I wonder if we can find the Su Lang from your dream.”

In Linjiang City, Bai Suzhen and Xiao Qing, the two sisters, walked along the street, with Xiao Qing complaining.

To prevent unnecessary trouble, both of them wore a veil, the pinkish-white gauze concealing their beautiful faces.

However, their graceful figures, swaying like Hibiscus as they walked, still attracted much attention.

Just then, Xiao Qing suddenly saw Linjiang Spring.

Linjiang Spring, after its renovation, now appeared quite elegant, its upturned eaves adorned with Xuan Bird sculptures poised for flight.

High-hanging lanterns bore golden 'Fu' characters, and the three large characters “Linjiang Spring” were vigorous and strong, inviting people to enter and explore.

Xiao Qing pointed a finger.

“Sister, look, the name of this restaurant is really interesting, Linjiang Spring.”

“Didn’t that Old Daoist say you would find your future lover in a city by the Linjiang River?”

“Perhaps your lover is in this restaurant right now.”

Bai Suzhen felt a stir of emotion upon hearing this.

This city is called Linjiang City.

This restaurant is also called Linjiang Spring.

Everything was so coincidental.

If she could really find Su Lang, that would truly be wonderful.

Thinking this, Bai Suzhen fell into a daze.

The two women looked towards the entrance.

At this moment, a voluptuous girl with a charming face was cleaning dust in the main hall with a feather duster.

With Bai Suzhen and Xiao Qing’s eyesight, they could tell at a glance that this girl had just lost her virginity last night, as she walked somewhat awkwardly.

Xiao Qing suddenly smelled a peculiar fragrance.

“Sister, the wine in this restaurant smells so good. Why don’t we go in for a drink, rest a bit, and then continue our search?”

Upon hearing Xiao Qing’s words, Bai Suzhen lightly nodded her head.

“Alright.”

With that, the two women entered Linjiang Spring.

Seeing the two women enter, the voluptuous girl quickly came forward.

“It’s really unfortunate, our Steward just went to the manor for something, so there’s no one to cook now.”

That voluptuous girl was Chun Zhu.

Enduring the injuries caused by Su Mo, she came before the two women.

Hearing Chun Zhu’s words, Xiao Qing looked at the wine jars on the counter.

“It’s fine, we’re not eating dishes, just serve us wine.”

“Ah?”

Chun Zhu didn’t react for a moment; she had never encountered a guest who only drank wine.

But since it was the guest’s request, she could only comply.

Subsequently.

Bai Suzhen and Xiao Qing sat by the window, removed their veils, and watched the few pedestrians come and go.

This scene was completely different from what they had seen in other cities before.

In other cities, peddlers and laborers were constantly moving about.

But here, it was nothing like that.

Occasionally, a pedestrian would appear on the street, only for it to be empty again in a blink of an eye.

It made one feel desolate.

Chun Zhu then brought over the wine utensils, and upon seeing the two women’s exquisite faces, she couldn’t help but be startled.

These two sisters are truly beautiful, especially the one in white, who looks just like a Heavenly Immortal.

When one sees someone truly beautiful, one’s heart can genuinely be startled.

Suppressing her surprise, Chun Zhu poured a cup of wine for each of them.

“Please enjoy yourselves, Young Misses. Our wine is strong, so it’s not advisable to drink too much.”

Xiao Qing at this moment pointed out the window.

“Miss, why is it that in this city, in broad daylight, you can’t even see a few people?”

Chun Zhu immediately spoke up upon hearing this.

“It’s all because of the Demon. Recently, no one dares to go out.”

“Demon?”

Xiao Qing was a little surprised.

In this era, how many Demons would dare to defy the world and harm people at will?

“How dare a Demon appear in this world? Does it not value its life?”

Chun Zhu couldn’t help but speak when she saw this.

“This Miss in green, that Demon has been rampant for a long time.”

“Many people have been attacked by the Demon.”

“Some time ago, three Great Heroes from the Jianghu prepared to eliminate evil for the people, but in the end, only one Great Hero escaped, while the other two Great Heroes perished at the hands of that Demon.”

Bai Suzhen couldn’t help but ask upon hearing this.

“How many people has that Demon harmed?”

Seeing Bai Suzhen so curious, Chun Zhu answered honestly.

“I’m not very clear on the specifics.”

“But the government has counted hundreds of people, right?”

“You two go ahead and drink, I still have things to do in the back.”

After speaking, Chun Zhu quickly left and went to the backyard to clean.

She always felt that the woman in green clothes was a bit dangerous.

She gave off a strange feeling.

So she didn’t stay long.

And hearing that there were hundreds of people, this greatly astonished Bai Suzhen and Xiao Qing.

They had never seen a Demon that could harm hundreds of people without suffering heavenly retribution, unless this Demon had a very deep background and origin.

Bai Suzhen’s gaze sharpened.

“Since that’s the case, this Demon must be dealt with!”

Xiao Qing instantly understood Bai Suzhen’s meaning.

“Sister, won’t there be any problems?”

“If we provoke someone we shouldn’t, we two could be in big trouble.”

“Don’t worry, no.”

Bai Suzhen was very certain.

“Moreover, that Demon is still harming people, which means the Cultivation Technique it Cultivates is related to humans, either by eating people or by absorbing their Qi.”

“Perhaps, this is just a minor Demon that hasn’t yet fully transformed.”

Xiao Qing felt slightly relieved after hearing this.

“Alright, Sister, if that’s the case, then I’ll go with you to take a look.”

Just then, Bai Suzhen suddenly looked out the window.

In her eyes, Buddhist light filled the sky outside the city, as if a virtuous High Monk had arrived.

Bai Suzhen immediately activated her magic power and performed Yin and Yang calculations.

This method of calculation can quickly deduce matters related to known things in a short period.

As the calculation was completed, Bai Suzhen’s heart trembled.

“Fahai is here!”

“He is only a few miles away from us now.”

Xiao Qing’s eyes showed surprise.

“Why would that Old Bald Monk come?”

“Could it be that he knows we’re here?!”
