Chapter 23                Serial bloody case

"Brother Bai, can we stay here for two more days?" Yao Jie asked softly.

According to Bai Fei's intention, he wanted to set off immediately to Baihua Hall. First, he wanted to send Yao Jie home to make safety, and then he wanted to finish the matter as soon as possible to rush to the Palace of Jile. He was responsible for the arduous expectations of Tianxuan Gate for him and wanted to calm down and practice before the conference began to see if he could be more sure.

"Yes, Brother Fei, didn't that person say there will be an auction here in two days?" Yun Ling said.

The girl Yun Ling knew about Bai Fei's name to Yao Jie so soon. She no longer called him his senior brother, and she shamelessly called her brother Fei. She didn't dare to call her this title to death, but now she was getting more and more natural. Not only that, she also tried to stop calling Bai Fei's younger sister in the future. Bai Fei ignored what she was thinking in her heart, but she agreed to her happily. But this sudden change made Yao Jie, who was beside her, think a lot.

If it weren't for Yun Ling's reminder, Bai Fei really didn't care what Ouyang Chisun said. Apart from the strange plant, they hadn't found anything that they could like here. In fact, he wanted to go to the auction to see it. Maybe there was something he needed, not to mention that he could also take this opportunity to auction some outdated things and exchange them for crystals in case of emergencies.

"Okay, let's wait until the auction is over before leaving." Bai Fei nodded.

The three of them continued to check into the inn, but each person still had one room for the room.

Bai Fei told the two girls that he had something to do and would not come back until the morning after tomorrow. He told them to stay in the inn as much as possible, and not to act alone if they were going out for a walk, and not to go too far. The second woman nodded in agreement. Afterwards, Yao Jie said goodbye and went back to the room, and Yun Ling handed Bai Fei a few bottles of Ningshen Pills and said goodbye.

Bai Fei had plans. He wanted to go to the Divine Heaven Ring to deal with some things. He carefully calculated the time and silently recited the mantra and entered the space of the Divine Heaven Ring.

After regaining the memory, Bai Fei also knew that the small village in front of him was exactly the "Xia Yin Village" he named. At this moment, Xia Yin Village still had the same appearance, but those familiar people were already empty. Looking at the familiar houses, Bai Fei felt excited and thoughts of Qing'er, Xiu'er and Lu'er had a little more.

In the Divine Heaven Ring, except for some buildings, everything related to that special world is basically gone. However, two things have not disappeared, and Bai Fei was very glad. In an ice warehouse where they had devoted all their efforts to dig, the ten thousand-year-old ice still existed, and the two peach trees he got from the Kunlun Fairyland.

Although even without the existence of the ice bank and with the blessing of the huge spiritual energy of the Divine Heaven Ring, the countless flesh and blood of the monsters will not rot or deteriorate, it is not very elegant after all. Bai Fei spent a lot of time to pile all the flesh and blood into the ice bank. Because no one manages it, the things he collected were messy, and he sorted them out in different categories. Finally, he took the pot of bonsai to the two peach trees.

The two peach trees grew more and more lush. They were only one person tall, but now they were two or three feet tall. When he first got these two peach trees, each peach tree had only two fruits, but now he saw that each tree had a lot of fruits and could not count them. He thought that when he lost his memory, these peaches helped him a lot.

As soon as Bai Fei put the pot of bonsai among two peach trees, he heard a "clang" sound, and the porcelain basin containing the strange plant suddenly broke. Then, a peach fell from the tree with a "bang" sound. Bai Fei was puzzled, but the peach quickly rotted and instantly sank into the soil. He was surprised and couldn't help but look at the strange plant. He felt excited. He saw that there were only two leaves on the stem, but a leaf appeared at this time. Although the size was not as large as the previous two leaves, it was indeed extra.

Bai Fei thought about it for a long time but still couldn't understand the truth. In the end, he attributed it to the fact that this thing absorbed the nutrients of the peaches and the unique spiritual energy of the God Heaven Ring, so that it could start to grow normally. He was very happy. Anyway, there were a lot of peaches, and now he was looking forward to what tricks this little thing could grow. He waited for a long time and found that no peaches fell from the tree. The little thing naturally had no further changes. He was anxious and couldn't eat hot tofu, so he stopped thinking about it.

Bai Fei had just left Xia Yin Village and returned to the inn room. Before he could catch his breath, he heard a whirlwind downstairs. After a while, the door was knocked open and he was taken to the hall by two guards.

"Xiao Jie, where is Ling'er?" Bai Fei asked Yao Jie without seeing Yun Ling's figure.

"It probably hasn't come down yet."

After waiting for a while, all the members of the Self-Defense Force had assembled, and Bai Fei still did not see Yun Ling.

"Mr. Ouyang, there is a friend of mine above." Bai Fei saw that Ouyang Chisun was about to speak, but Yun Ling was not seen for a long time, and couldn't help but speak.

Ouyang Chisun was stunned for a moment, turned around and asked his subordinates a few words, and came back and said to Bai Fei, "The people in the inn are here."

"Impossible!" Bai Fei felt inexplicably worried and rushed upstairs immediately.

"Let him go." Seeing that his subordinates were about to stop Bai Fei, Ouyang Chisun waved his hand. At this time, Yao Jie seemed to feel something was wrong and rushed upstairs. Ouyang Chisun hesitated for a moment, explained, and followed him upstairs.

"Ling'er, Ling'er..."

Bai Fei called anxiously, but Yun Ling was not in the room.

"Xiao Jie, where is Ling'er?" Bai Fei asked anxiously.

"I was chatting with Sister Yunling here yesterday. I didn't go back to my room until the evening. We haven't been out for this period of time..." Yao Jie said.

"Mr. Ouyang, let me ask, what happened?" Bai Fei turned to Ouyang Chisun and asked.

"I just got the news that a murder occurred in the city..."

"What? Who is it?" Bai Fei said in surprise.

"Please rest assured, this brother, it's not your friend, but you know this person too. He is the old man who sold you the pot of bonsai the day before yesterday. He initially guessed that this was a case of murder for money. We have checked his body. The medium-grade crystal you gave him has been taken away..."

"Sir, I suspected that I did it?"

"You were indeed suspicious, but I learned about the situation. The inn owner said that you and your two friends have never been out since they came back the day before yesterday, and the murder happened yesterday afternoon, so I believe you."

"Thank you, sir, I wonder if I can leave first?"

"...It's good." Ouyang Chisun said in silence for a while.

"Thank you, Xiaojie, you are waiting for me in the inn."

"Brother Bai, I..."

"Xiaojie, obedient. Sir, say goodbye." As he said that, Bai Fei pushed open the window and his figure flashed.

Seeing him leaving, Ouyang Chisun clasped his fists and said goodbye to Yao Jie. Seeing that he had no intention of asking him to go down to gather, Yao Jie stayed in the room. After thinking for a while, he looked at the open window and sighed slightly.

In the afternoon, Bai Fei came back. He had searched all over a radius of hundreds of miles, but he did not feel the breath of Yun Ling. Could it be that he was really like Yao Jie's two senior sisters, who were killed and used to dissolve the corpse powder to disappear? Bai Fei was really unwilling to accept such thoughts. However, with his cultivation and powerful spiritual consciousness, as long as Yun is flexible, why can't he even sense the breath?

"Brother Bai..." Yao Jie saw Bai Fei's look in dismay, and knew there was no news about Yun Ling.

"Oh." Bai Fei sighed.

"Brother Bai, I'm sorry, I didn't protect Sister Yunling, I..."

"Xiaojie, I don't blame you--"

"No, Brother Bai, why did I not notice anything like this happening? If it weren't for me..."

"Xiaojie, I said, you can't blame me."

As the evening approached, Ouyang Chisun sent his subordinates to convey a message to Bai Fei. The man said that the murderer who killed the old man had been found. No one expected that he was the scholar who bid for Bai Fei. However, when they found him, they found that he had also died. They found that a medium-grade crystal stone was found from him. It seemed that the possibility of killing money was eliminated.

Bai Fei asked about the location of the accident and immediately rushed to the scene. The scribe's body had been removed. He carefully investigated around him and finally found a conditioning pill. He was very excited. He knew that this was the clue left by Yun Ling. It seemed that her disappearance was inseparable from the scribe, but he had already died. It was impossible to investigate just this clue.

After returning to the inn, Yao Jie told him that Ouyang Chisun sent someone again, as if there was something important to tell him, and he immediately ran towards the place where the man left.

Ouyang Chisun told him that someone saw the scholar holding a young girl hostage, who thought he was Bai Fei's friend, but the man still saw that just when the scholar wanted to bully Yun Ling, a masked man saved her and took the scribe's life.

Back at the inn, Bai Fei recalled the matter carefully. He knew that the scholar was only in the early stage of the Nine Transformations. No wonder he dared not touch Yao Jie and hijack Yun Ling. However, he wondered why he did this. If it was just because of his bidding, it would be impossible.

That pot of bonsai! Bai Fei was shocked. Could that strange plant be such a great thing?

It seems that only such an explanation can work. Thinking that Yun Ling was rescued, since the man saved her under the tiger's mouth and vented his anger on the spot, it seems that there will be no malice. Thinking of this, Bai Fei's heart relaxed a little.

In the evening, Yao Jie came to Bai Fei and asked him for his advice, asking him whether he would set off for Baihua Hall or go to see the auction.
