Chapter 21 The Old Nine Gates



Master Liu held the ancient black-gold sword in his hand, half leaning back, with one foot on a chair, and closing his eyes to rest.

Li Huashi stood beside Sixth Master with a look of grievance on her face.

"Here's what happened. I won money in the casino, but the people there insisted on accusing me of cheating even though they had no evidence and wouldn't let me leave.

In the end, I mentioned my master's name, and only then did those lackeys in the casino let me go.

I am a weak little girl who can't lift anything with my hands or carry anything on my shoulders. I live alone and have such a large sum of money, so I set up some precautions at home.

In order to avoid harming innocent people, I even set up restrictions around the yard. If the criminals hadn't broken into my house, they wouldn't have fallen into the illusion at all."

As she spoke, Li Huashi's eyes couldn't help but turn red, and a stubborn tear finally burst out.

Master Jiujie spoke up at this time, acting as a peacemaker, saying, "So he is your disciple, Master Liu. It seems that this is all just a misunderstanding.

We didn't know that Master Liu had accepted a new apprentice before. My people only said that someone was cheating in my casino, but they didn't find any evidence of cheating.

I thought it was sent by my enemies to target us, so I sent people to investigate.

The people I sent out several times have never returned, and I am not sure about the situation, so I asked Erye and the others to come with me to investigate the situation."

Li Huashi ignored Jie Jiuye's smiling face and looked unconvinced but timid.

He lowered his head and muttered in a voice that everyone could hear: "It's just a misunderstanding...

Do you know how scared I was as a girl when I opened the door and saw so many people appearing in my house?

And it’s a good thing that no one saw so many men in my family, otherwise, as a girl, my reputation would be ruined! How could I get married then?

And just because I won some money in their casino, they broke in without my permission.

What are they trying to do? It’s scary to think about it...”

Jiuye Jie paused and said, "I'm really sorry, but I didn't cheat in my casino because of the girl."

Li Huashi: "I didn't cheat!"

Master Jiu Jie: "I'm sorry, I used the wrong words. In fact, Master Er and I didn't come here just because of the casino in the beginning."

Er Yuehong: "That's right, Master Liu, do you still remember what you told us, that the one who disguised herself as me and attacked the Japanese was a woman?

This time, Master Jiu and I found some information and thought that this person... "

Li Huashi blinked when Er Yuehong looked at her, pretending not to understand what he meant.

Er Yuehong: "I wonder what the girl's name is?"

Li Huashi blinked and said, "My name is Bai Ahua."

When Mr. Jie Jiu heard the name, he looked at Li Huashi sharply.

Li Huashi remained calm and pretended not to see it.

Anyway, she had already made up an excuse, and what's more, Sixth Master was here, so if something really happened, she could just push him out to take the blame.

If she can't stand it anymore, she will take action again.

When Er Yuehong heard the name, he looked at Li Huashi meaningfully, met her expressionless face, and exchanged glances with Jiu Ye.

Master Jiu Jie said “Oh”.

“Speaking of which, some time ago my family encountered a female swindler, who not only cheated me, stole valuables from my home, but also hurt my wife.

Coincidentally, that woman also said her name was Bai Ahua. I wonder if Sixth Master’s apprentice has any relationship with the Bai Ahua I just mentioned?”

Li Huashi was stunned for a moment, and after a while, she seemed to react to what Master Jie Jiu said.

His expression was panicked and he waved his hands in fear.

"No, no, I have never done such a thing! I said, I said... Actually, after I came to Changsha, I wanted to buy a house and settle down.

But because I needed an ID to buy a house, and I was an orphan since I was a child, I didn’t have such a thing, so I spent money to find someone to buy an ID, Bai Ahua, is the name I bought it in. ”

Zhang Qishan suddenly asked: "What is your real name?"

Li Huashi suddenly fell silent, seeming reluctant to answer this question.

Zhang Qishan then asked: "You said you were an orphan since childhood, so how did you have the money to buy a house? Where did your money come from? Winning money in Jiuye Casino should have happened before you bought your household registration.

Where were you from before? If you have no relatives, why did you choose to come to Changsha? "

Li Huashi pursed her lips, her hands trembled slightly, and she looked very uneasy and frightened.

Suddenly, Li Huashi pushed Blackback Laoliu in grievance.

"Sixth Master, please say something! When you accepted me as your apprentice, you promised to protect me!

They were the ones who broke into my house, and now they are interrogating me. Now just because they are your friends, you don’t care about me, right?

You guys are bullying a little girl like me!

Yes... I am an orphan, a powerless girl. Anyway, no one has ever protected me since I was a child.

At the beginning, because Master said you would protect me, I believed you. . . I thought I had a home. . .

Yes! Anyway, for a small person like me, being bullied is nothing. Haven’t I been bullied enough since I was a child?

It's good enough that I didn't die... But I didn't know what was good for me and made things difficult for Master!"

As she spoke, Li Huashi sobbed continuously, looking very sad.

Master Jie Jiu paused, feeling a little at a loss for a moment.

I was also a little surprised. I didn't expect that with Sixth Master's temper, he would accept a disciple with such a personality.
