Chapter 96 Ji Qiubai Gets Angry

After hearing the innkeeper at Bai Xiao Lou's solemn words, several officers instantly believed it to about 70% in their hearts. They looked at each other, with fear in their eyes.

This, this Master Ji's name is known to everyone in Jiangzhou City. He has the hottest temper.

If they offended him, they would be dismissed from their posts at the very least, and be thrown into jail at the worst. If Baixiaolou was related to him, they would not be able to afford to offend him even if they had nine lives!

The leader of the officials was the first to react. He winked at his subordinates, waved his hand, and said in a deep voice:

"Take this woman who is deliberately causing trouble away."

After saying that, she frowned, looked around at the people around her, and said coldly:

"Everyone, please disperse. Don't gather here and block the road."

The people who were watching the excitement were so frightened by the chief officer's shout that they pushed each other and ran away.

The woman on the ground was held by the arms by several other officers and dragged away from the scene while yelling in dissatisfaction.

upstairs.

When Su Yuan saw this, he glanced meaningfully at the three-story building opposite and chuckled.

He turned around and returned to his seat. After Meng Yunlan finished his tea, he left Xuanyun Pavilion with him and walked into the bookstore in front.

At the same time.

A luxurious carriage slowly stopped in front of Bai Xiao Tower. The driver placed the horse stool, bowed his head and stood to one side and said respectfully:

"Sir, we have arrived at Baixiao Tower."

After a moment, a light "hmm" sound came from the carriage, and then four servants in extraordinary clothes came out one after another, stood by with their heads down, waiting for their master to come out.

A handsome man dressed in light blue clothes, with his black hair half-covered and tied up with a mutton-fat jade hairpin, dressed casually but with an aristocratic air, slowly got down from the carriage.

He glanced at the waiter at Bai Xiao Lou, raised his chin slightly, raised his eyebrows and sneered:

"Lead the way, you better find the right person this time, otherwise I will destroy this shitty building of yours!"

The waiter's eyebrows jumped when he heard this, and he swallowed his saliva in fear, nodded and bowed to guarantee:

"Don't worry, Master Ji. We have found more than 20 masked female warriors this time. Among them, there must be the one you want."

After saying that, she lowered her head, made a gesture of invitation, and respectfully led Ji Qiubai into the store.

Third floor.

A woman in her fifties, dressed in Taoist clothes, was sitting at a desk with her eyes closed in meditation when she heard footsteps coming from the stairs.

She opened her eyes a little and peeked outside. Seeing that the person coming was Ji Qiubai, she closed her eyes calmly and pretended to be mysterious:

"But Master Ji."

Ji Qiubai said "hmm" lightly, and walked with four attendants to the soft couch beside him and sat down, saying irritably:

"Master Qing, bring up all the people you found so that I can confirm if they are the masked hero I'm looking for."

Taoist Qingyu pursed his lips in frustration, blinked a few times, put on a calm smile, and instructed the waiter:

"Tianzhu, go and bring up the masked woman that I found these days according to my instructions."

Tianzhu nodded and clapped his hands.

Suddenly, a row of women in green clothes and with gauze covering their faces walked out from behind the screen on the right and stood in front of Ji Qiubai.

Tianzhu glanced at the group of women in green, walked quickly to Ji Qiubai's side, bent over and said with a smile on his face:

"Sir, everyone is here, are you sure you found the right one?"

Ji Qiubai ignored her, sat up straight, looked at the row of women, stroked his chin, and said in a long and slow tone:

"Those who have not received an education and whose families are not hereditary corpse collectors, all should step back."

As soon as he finished speaking, most of the people retreated, and in an instant, only five women were left standing there.

Seeing this, Ji Qiubai's eyes flashed with excitement. He stretched out a hand and stood up with the help of his servant. He paced back and forth in front of the remaining women in green, observing them.

He frowned, pointed at several people, and said in a dissatisfied tone:

"You are too short, you are out. Your hair is too long, you are out. And you, you stink, get out now."

After Ji Qiubai's torment, there were only two masked women left. He looked at them and asked tentatively:

"Where did I first meet you?"

The two women in green heard this, a trace of guilt flashed in their eyes, and they answered in unison:

“On the mountain.”

"forest."

Ji Qiubai sneered and waved to the woman in the woods, signaling her to leave.

Then he turned his head and stared at the eyes of the only remaining woman, observing her carefully, then moved closer and sniffed her, narrowing his eyes slightly and snorting in anger with a sarcastic sneer.

He could no longer hold back his suppressed anger, so he took two quick steps and kicked over the gilded copper stove with exotic animal patterns in the room.

In an instant, sparking ashes were scattered all over the ground, and the raised white ash floated in the air, blinding the eyes and choking the nose.

Ji Qiubai ignored the people who were coughing in the room, pursed his lips, pointed at Taoist Qingyu and Tianzhu, and said in a sharp tone:

"Okay, you've got to blame for all the cheating, right? Leshan, go inform the government right away, close this shabby shop, and put these two people in jail."

"No, these two idiots not only took a thousand taels of gold from me, but also wasted several months of my time. I don't know where my masked hero has gone. Then, then..."

Having said this, he paused, a tear appeared in his eyes, and he stared at Taoist Qingyu and Tianzhu with a strong look of disgust, and said in a low and dark tone:

"They cheated so much money, so let the government give them a hundred lashes. If they are still alive, I won't bother with them."

Taoist Qingyu, who had been pretending to be profound and had not left his seat, and the waiter Tianzhu, were so frightened by what they heard that they widened their eyes, knelt down with a plop, and begged for mercy tremblingly:

"Master Ji, spare us, give us one more chance, we will definitely find the masked hero for you, please don't send us to the government, a hundred beatings will cost us our lives!"

Wasn’t Master Ji very easy to talk to last time?

Not only do they give them another chance, they also give them extra money.

Why did he suddenly get so angry this time?

Ji Qiubai looked down at the two of them, a sarcastic smile appeared on his lips, and he asked in a long tone:

"Do you think - I really believe that you are a Taoist master? I just saw that you have a good reputation and wanted to use your shabby shop to help me find someone."

"Now, you are treating me like a fool even more. Not only did you find a bunch of fakes, but you even told them the information you got from me. I think you are really tired of living."

After saying that, he exchanged a look with Leshan and Daiyun, who were practicing martial arts behind him, and waited for the two of them to hold the man down.

Ji Qiubai glanced at the two idiots kneeling on the ground, then walked down the stairs slowly, saying without turning his head:

"Leshan, Daiyun, send those two swindlers to the government and tell them to do as I say. I will be returning to the palace first."

After he said this, he took the remaining servants with a gloomy face and returned to the palace in a carriage.
