122. Chapter 122 Peach Blossom Tree



Bai Ruanruan was invited to get on the carriage.

The others had no choice but to follow the butler.

Xiao Yan would not let herself be wronged, and said directly: "If you want to go, go by yourselves, I will find a place to live by myself."

Xiao Baiyu nodded without objection: "Okay."

Xiao Yan couldn't stand this and left with his four Jindan cultivators.

Then she spent a lot of money to get a room from other monks.

After all, some cultivators can accept getting more spirit stones than what they need for accommodation.

"Ding, go to the Qin Mansion and stay there."

Jiang Zhi went over with the others.

In fact, she didn't want to go. After all, Qin Lin's elder brother Qin Jiu attacked Qin Lin for a part of the Qin family's property in Qin Lin's hands.

Now that part of the Qin family's industry is in Jiang Zhi's hands.

Then Jiang Zhi would have to be prepared for Qin Jiu to kill her for money.

So Jiang Zhi took this part of the assets and also took on this part of the risk.

This is the feeling of Jiang Zhi not wanting to fall into the tiger's mouth.

However, since the system asked her to live in Qin's mansion, she had no choice but to follow in order to complete the task.

And she couldn't die! It was impossible for Qin Jiu to kill her and take her assets.

Qin Jiu's mansion in Baimu City was very large. They followed the butler inside, and what caught their eyes were the winding stone roads, exquisite rockery fountains, flowing water under small bridges, vermilion pillar corridors, exquisite and beautiful carvings and paintings, and a classical and elegant beauty.

These are more like the City Lord’s Mansion than the City Lord’s Mansion.

It turns out that they are a wealthy family.

Butler Lin took them to stay in the guest room.

Jiang Zhi also moved into a house, and the next second the system said, "Ding, a total of 6 lottery opportunities."

There were noisy noises coming from the street from time to time. Inside the carriage, Bai Ruanruan and Qin Jiu were chatting happily.

"Brother Qin, I didn't expect to meet you here." Bai Ruanruan smiled and curled her lips. "I wanted to contact you through Yu Jian and ask if I could stay in your mansion for a few days."

"I've been working here recently." Qin Jiu's voice was calm, his face was handsome and stern, and his cold eyes were always rational and calm. However, when he spoke to the girl at this time, his cold eyes took on a warm color, "It's indeed a coincidence."

Bai Ruanruan smiled softly, her features were pretty and lively, a harmless, pure and beautiful face, and she looked very well-behaved when she smiled.

The two chatted for a long time.

Bai Ruanruan also inadvertently revealed that she was not having a good time in the sect. Everyone liked her senior sister and didn't like her very much.

She also said that her senior sister always targeted her deliberately.

These words are naturally not stated explicitly, but they are implied.

"I don't know why Senior Sister doesn't like it." Bai Ruanruan sighed.

"Because you are better than her." Qin Jiu said coldly, looking at Bai Ruanruan quietly, "You should just leave this sect. You are more suitable for a bigger stage."

Bai Runrun thought to herself that she would definitely leave that shabby sect, but she had to get rid of her inner demons, which meant killing Jiang Zhi first before leaving.

She shook her head: "It's not wrong that the master and the brothers favor me. I'm so powerful. I'm fine."

Qin Jiu frowned slightly, already thinking that Bai Ruanruan had suffered a lot of injustice in that sect.

"If you need help, come to me. You're welcome." Qin Jiu said softly.

Bai Ruanruan smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Qin."

A smile flashed across Qin Jiu's cold and dark eyes. The girl in front of him was innocent, cute and likable.

It started with curiosity and ended with her pure whiteness.

He reached out and touched her head.

Bai Ruanruan's smile was so sweet that it touched people's hearts.

Night market in Baimu City.

Although there have been a number of disappearances, the flow is still high.

And the closer it gets to the Peach Blossom Festival, the more people come to watch the festival.

People tend to have a lucky mentality and think that they will not be the next person to go missing.

So there are quite a few men and women who come here for the Peach Blossom Festival.

Jiang Zhi, Yun Qi, Liang Sheng, and Lin Shuangmu were walking on the streets of the night market.

"I heard that during the Peach Blossom Festival, the entire Baimu City will be raining peach blossom petals." Lin Shuangmu told Jiang Zhi what he had inquired about, "In the center of the city, there is a peach blossom tree as big as a banyan tree. Every year on June 10th, it grows very, very tall, taller than the city tower, and then it starts to rain peach blossom petals."

It's June 1st now, and there are nine days left, so that's about the same.

"I heard that if you go to a peach tree to seek marriage, the tree will randomly drop a peach branch to bless the destined person." Lin Shuangmu continued, "This destined person will definitely have good luck in love this year."

Yun Qi was silent for a moment and then said, "Does this have anything to do with the missing girl case?"

"Oh, Senior Sister Yun, think about it, peach blossoms, girl, guess how could this peach tree grow taller than the city wall? It must have become a spirit, and then secretly killed the girl in the dark and windy night and used her as fertilizer." Lin Shuangmu guessed aloud with a serious look, "So the girl's disappearance case is closely related to this peach tree."

Jiang Zhi: ...

If she hadn't read the novel, she would have believed it.

However, the peach tree has indeed become a spirit, and it has witnessed infatuated men and resentful women, and infatuated women and resentful men.

Although I had seen many separations, I still couldn't help but fall in love with a girl at first sight during the Peach Blossom Festival one year.

Unfortunately, the girl didn't like him, but instead used his love to help the man she loved.

The peach tree poured out its heart and soul, and in return it only received one sentence: I'm sorry, I don't like you.

This is a sad story. Anyway, the peach tree demon has turned evil this year, and it will destroy the entire city even if it has to self-destruct on the day of the Peach Blossom Festival.

His roots have spread all over the underground of Baimu City, and he can be said to have ears in all directions.

However, the peach blossom tree demon is the peach blossom tree demon’s business, and the missing girl’s case is another matter, and the two are not related.

The connection is that the peach blossom tree demon knows the truth of all other cases, but does not take action, nor does he want to reveal that he has developed his own consciousness.

"The reason why the peach tree has become taller than the city wall is because the city lord of Baimu City invited cultivators in the fusion stage to set up a giant formation under the peach tree. The formation will be activated every Peach Blossom Festival, and the peach tree will grow taller quickly and then drop peach petals." Jiang Zhi explained aloud.

This was also an idea that the city lord adopted from the military advisor in order to boost the economic development of the city.

"Then this cannot deny the possibility that the peach tree has become a spirit." Lin Shuangmu also replied to Jiang Zhi.

Jiang Zhi: ...

The peach tree has nothing to do with the girl’s disappearance. This is a wrong direction to solve the case.

But Jiang Zhi turned around and thought, if the peach tree demon was willing to tell the truth, wouldn’t the case of the missing girl be solved?

However, if it were the peach tree in the past, it might still be able to speak, but the peach tree now has been so heartbroken that it is simply impossible for it to trust people anymore.
