The disciple of Yue Lao

Chapter 235: It’s easy to hide from an open gun
It was as if all the sleepiness was taken away in front of the statue of the God of Land. After chatting with Xia Yu, Luo Fan tossed and turned, unable to sleep. He sat on the sofa in the living room all night. As if he had made up his mind secretly, he returned home at daybreak.

Xia Yu was also unable to sleep in the middle of the night. She lay in bed all night thinking about what had happened recently. Her master, Yue Lao, showed up briefly yesterday. In fact, she had the opportunity to ask Yue Lao about the matter of "Bai Zhi", but the matter involved so many people that she could only think of another way.

The whereabouts of the marriage bracelet could not be found for a while, and Yue Lao was afraid that Xia Yu would be bullied in the mortal world, so he sent a message to Li Jian, Hua Changyi, and Gu Baili, asking them to help Xia Yu find out the truth about the "marriage bracelet being maliciously sold", and at the same time protect Xia Yu and assist her in getting her "marriage bracelet" back.

Luo Fan returned home around 7 o'clock. He stayed at the door for a few minutes before walking into the house with heavy steps.

Hearing the voice, Bai Zhi, who had been suffering from insomnia because Luo Fan did not return home at night, immediately walked out of the room. Looking at Luo Fan's serious dark circles under his eyes, she wanted to say something, but felt that she had no position at the moment and it would be useless to say more.

From a distance, Bai Zhi smelled a strong smell of alcohol. Looking closely at Luo Fan's condition, he looked like he had a hangover.

Bai Zhi's face turned cold. She obviously felt that Xia Yu ignored her warning. The two of them had been drinking all night. Who knew if they had done anything else...

"Luo Fan..." Bai Zhi called Luo Fan and wanted to say something nice.

Luo Fan didn't want to pay any attention to Bai Zhi, so he walked faster and faster. However, when he passed by Bai Zhi, he accidentally caught a glimpse of a little red spot in Bai Zhi's pocket, and his pace slowed down involuntarily.

That is……

Luo Fan took a closer look secretly and discovered that it was the red thread that Xia Yu often used. No, that color... that material... that special sense of design, that was the so-called... "universal marriage thread"!
How can it be……

She is also an ordinary person. Where did she get the "universal marriage thread"? Who is helping her?
Could it be... that she wants to use that "universal marriage thread" on me?

Luo Fan recalled the scene when Xia Yu used the red string to tease Zhou Hai, and he was scared just thinking about it. Now that things have come to this, instead of being forced to get close to her, it is better...

"I'm sorry." Luo Fan was silent for a while, and apologized for his unreasonable behavior just now. At the same time, he told Bai Zhi with some sadness: "Xia Yu and I... broke up."

Hearing this, Bai Zhi slowly loosened her grip on the "Universal Marriage Thread" and immediately became overjoyed. She couldn't hide her smile and asked, "Really? You're not lying to me, are you? So sudden?"

Luo Fan had a sad face, but an expression of "determined to let go", and replied: "She has her responsibilities and obligations, and I finally understand that there is a difference between immortals and mortals, and she and I are not the same kind of people. Zhou Hai drank with me all night, and I also figured it out. At my age, it's time to get married. We should be more practical in life."

"You should have understood it a long time ago." Bai Zhi said as she helped the drunk Luo Fan back to the room to rest. She was secretly happy: That person gave me a good idea. Xia Yu was really scared. It was just right. I didn't have to use that "universal marriage thread". I want to make him fall in love with me with my own ability. I don't want fake feelings.

"It doesn't matter..." Luo Fan said, staggering from side to side as if he couldn't stand steadily, and continued: "If we break up, then we break up. I will definitely find a girl who is a hundred times prettier than her to accompany me till old age!"

After saying that, Luo Fan pretended to faint. Bai Zhi just happened to be quick enough to support him and sent him back to his room.

Luo Fan had informed Zhou Hai in advance, so when Bai Zhi later went to Zhou Hai to confirm, Zhou Hai told her in no uncertain terms that he had been with Luo Fan every step of the way last night.

While Luo Fan was drunk and asleep, Bai Zhi happily picked up his mobile phone and deleted everything about Xia Yu on his phone, including photos and contact information.

At the same time, she also added her WeChat and phone number. She probably didn't realize how shameless her behavior was. She just felt that her chance had come. She thought that with her charm, she could also capture Luo Fan's heart without the help of the "universal marriage line". After deleting, Bai Zhi raised the corners of her mouth and left his room with satisfaction.

As soon as the door closed, Luo Fan slowly opened his eyes. He took out his phone and saw that there was no photo or contact information of Xia Yu on it. Instead, there was an unfamiliar account and phone contact. He hated Bai Zhi more and more.

He really didn't understand how such a woman could be his destined partner. Could it be that old Yue Lao was really getting old and confused?
……

When it comes to investigating cases, no one is faster than Li Jian. Since coming to the mortal world, Xia Yu has always needed Li Jian's help in all the big and small things she has encountered. This time, Xia Yu first thought of asking Li Jian for help, but on the way to find Li Jian, Xia Yu suddenly remembered the photo that Qu Si Ning sent her.

When did Second Brother find a lover?
Logically speaking, Second Senior Brother shouldn't have kept this from her...

With a lot of questions in his mind, Xia Yu came to Li Jian's villa, but Li Jian was out for something and the two missed each other. Unexpectedly, he met an acquaintance in Li Jian's villa.

she……!
How come she appeared in "mortal" form again!

Did she go buy potion again? That blue sky...

Yan Lan ignored Xia Yu's "shocked" expression. She just held a wine glass in her hand and shook the red wine in it like Li Jian, as if she was tasting the wine seriously.

She really loves the color "black". All her clothes are in black. At this moment, she is wearing a black and gold dress, looking like a rich daughter attending a banquet.

The weather was getting colder, and she was like a mortal 24 hours a day, but she was not afraid of the cold. Normally, no matter if it was a god, fairy, demon, or the underworld, no matter what the weather was, they were not afraid of cold or heat. But if you were injured or lost your magic power, just like Xia Yu before, without the blessing of magic power or the loss of immortal energy, you would feel the cold and warm weather like a mortal.

This figure and back look exactly like the woman in the photo with the second brother. But it's impossible, how could the second brother have such thoughts about her?
Besides, even if she forgot Yue Yang because of the "Forget Love Potion", a person's preferences could not suddenly change so much. Second Brother and Yue Yang are completely different types of people.

"Why are you here?" Xia Yu was shocked. He took two steps at a time and asked Yan Lan hurriedly, "This is my second senior brother's home. Does he know you are here?"

Before Xia Yu entered the room, Yan Lan already knew that the person coming was Xia Yu. Originally, Li Jian did not allow her to come to the villa to find him without permission, but she really missed him and could not help it.

"You can come, why can't I?" Yan Lan asked casually.

It's easy to say, but in fact only Yan Lan knows how much trouble it takes for her to come to the mortal world. Because of her identity, she can't show up in the mortal world and can't get close to mortals at will, so she had to secretly go to the [Underworld Mall] to find the ghost lady and buy a potion to remove the Yin Qi.

Strangely enough, Yan Lan clearly remembered that this was the first time she went to the ghost lady to buy this "forbidden potion" from the underworld, but the ghost lady asked her why she wanted to buy this potion again.

What's even more strange is that Yue Yang, the soul that was captured by the Black and White Impermanence yesterday, was unwilling to reincarnate. Her father did not force him to leave. Instead, he appreciated his talent and allowed him to start a business in the [Underworld Mall].

This time Yan Lan went to the ghost granny to buy the "forbidden potion", and he also privately asked the ghost granny what she was going to do. The Black and White Impermanence, the Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced, the ghost messengers of the underworld, and even the ghosts being tortured in the Wangchuan River seemed to be discussing something behind their backs, but when Yan Lan asked, none of them dared to reveal a word, and they all avoided the topic. Yan Lan's mind was now on Li Jian, so he didn't bother to investigate other things, and it didn't matter if they didn't want to talk.
