The disciple of Yue Lao

Chapter 247 See the Man in Black Again

When Xia Yu and Li Jian arrived, they found that the injured person was Gu Baili. Although he was spitting blood, Gu Baili wiped it casually with his hand as if nothing had happened.

In a locked shop, Gu Baili sat on the ground with his back against a wall, looking exhaustedly at Xia Yu and Li Jian who had hurried over.

"Ninth Senior Brother!"

"Ninth Junior Brother!"

The two of them called out Gu Baili in unison.

"Second brother...Junior sister...you are here..." Gu Baili sat up straight with great effort and responded to Xia Yu and Li Jian with a smile.

As soon as she entered the store, Xia Yu didn't care whether there were surveillance cameras in the store. She flew over to support Gu Baili and stretched out her hand to use her newly recovered magic power to heal his wounds.

"Ninth Junior Brother, what happened?" Li Jian asked, gently pulling Xia Yu away and hurriedly said, "I'll do it."

Li Jian healed Gu Baili's injuries, and the effect was indeed much stronger than Xia Yu's magic. Within ten minutes, Gu Baili's expression changed from suppressed pain to slowly relaxing.

"Senior Brother Nine, who hurt you? Where is Senior Brother Seventeen? Aren't you together?" Xia Yu asked.

Gu Baili took a moment to calm down before saying, "Junior Brother Seventeen and I acted separately. He was in charge of a few shops, and I was in charge of a few shops. I moved faster, collected the 'Universal Marriage Thread' sold by the shops I was in charge of, and then came to support Junior Brother Seventeen."

"and then?"

"When I arrived, I saw a man in a black suit fighting with Junior Brother Seventeen. There was no one in the store. Junior Brother Seventeen and I fought the man together. It turned out that we had the upper hand and were about to catch him..."

"go on……"

"Suddenly, another wave of men in black flew out. None of them were human, and the spells they used were all a bunch of black smoke and miasma. They were neither immortal spells nor sorcery... It seemed like..."

"It looks like it came from the demon world."

"Where's Senior Brother Seventeen?"

"Just when the two of us were about to fall, Senior Brother Seven and Junior Brother Eleven received the warning from the 'Marriage Ring' and rushed over in time. We finally worked together to beat them back step by step. Unexpectedly, I was ambushed by the group of men in black and was seriously injured. Senior Brother Seven took Junior Brothers Eleven and Seventeen to chase them... ahem..."

Gu Baili started coughing as he was speaking, and Xia Yu hurriedly stopped him from wasting his energy to continue speaking.

It's true that "worry leads to confusion". One spell can tell what happened, but they are still here questioning Gu Baili.

Xia Yu cast a spell to try to "recreate everything that just happened here." Li Jian was afraid that Xia Yu's magic power was not enough, so he secretly helped her.

Just as Gu Baili said, the group of men in black wearing "black suits" suddenly appeared and began to attack Hua Changyi. From Gu Baili and Hua Changyi fighting side by side to Chu Lichen and Nangong Xu joining in, they were always seen tracking the group of men in black.

In the picture, they clearly killed many men in black, but as soon as those men in black fell to the ground, they all turned into smoke and disappeared, leaving nothing behind.

"Second Senior Brother..." Xia Yu suddenly said, thinking of the time when he was besieged by men in black, "Last time, Luo Fan and I were also besieged abroad. At that time, those men were also wearing black suits, the same as those we saw just now."

"Really? Are they the same group of people?" Li Jian asked.

Gu Baili also had an impression of the people Xia Yu mentioned. He recalled that he had seen those people at that time, and immediately replied, "It shouldn't be. At that time, those people were all special bodyguards trained by mortals."

"Those who besieged us at that time were obviously all mortals. They were arranged by Bai Zhi, and they were coming for me. But this time, these people turned into smoke and dissipated after they died. Obviously, they were not ordinary people, and they were coming for Senior Brother Seventeen."

"Ninth Junior Brother, Little Junior Sister, let's stop talking. Come to my place and rest for a while. We need to think about this matter carefully." Li Jian helped Gu Baili stand up, and at the same time pulled Xia Yu's arm, adding: "After I send you back, I will track down Junior Brother Seventeen and the others."

"I want to go too." Xia Yu replied.

Why are these two groups of men in black wearing the same black suits? Is it related to Bai Zhi?

Speaking of "Bai Zhi", Xia Yu thought of Luo Fan and wondered how he is doing now.

……

I thought Bai Zhi would expose Luo Fan's lie immediately, but she didn't. She pretended to be fooled and watched Luo Fan continue to perform in front of her as if she was a mirror in her heart.

He took her to the Amethyst Cave, a famous scenic spot in Neon City, to Baidu Bridge, and to Shilipo, and visited all kinds of amusement parks, cinemas, and coffee shops.

Bai Zhi's mother Hu Yuanyuan left with peace of mind after seeing Bai Zhi and Luo Fan approaching. She also gave them many instructions, asking them to get along well and choose an auspicious day to get engaged two months later.

Luo Fan didn't listen to any of that nonsense. He just wanted to help Xia Yu find out the truth and get rid of Bai Zhi as soon as possible. No one knows a child better than his parents. Luo Fan's parents knew that he didn't like Bai Zhi at all, but they didn't understand why he did this. Only Luo Ke seemed to understand that her brother was just acting.

In short, their family doesn't care what Luo Fan does, they only recognize Xia Yu. As long as Luo Fan and Bai Zhi don't get to the stage of "marriage", they will never give up.

That night, Luo Fan's parents were not at home, Luo Ke went to find Xie Shiyi, and even took Da Huang away (because Da Huang couldn't stand Bai Zhi always wanting to bite her), leaving only Luo Fan and Bai Zhi at home.

As soon as Luo Fan came back from work, he put on an apron and busied himself in the kitchen, carefully preparing a "candlelight dinner", but while he was preparing, his mind was full of Xia Yu.

Despite this, in order to get more words from Bai Zhi, he still suppressed his inner disgust, was considerate to Bai Zhi in various ways, and said all kinds of "insincere" love words.

Bai Zhi also pretended to be stupid and enjoyed Luo Fan's various acts to please her unscrupulously.

"Eat shrimps. Don't you like shrimps?" Luo Fan said gently, and placed a plate of peeled shrimps in front of Bai Zhi.

"Feed me." Bai Zhi said with a smile.

"it is good."

While Luo Fan was feeding Bai Zhi with shrimps, he pretended to be casual and said, "Xiao Zhi, I prepared such a sumptuous dinner today, but unfortunately our parents are not at home and we can't finish it. How about... you invite the immortal who helped us to come over, and we can eat together, as a way of thanking him for helping us to get married, right?"

Ah……

Lovers get married?
Hearing this, Bai Zhi looked at Luo Fan with a fake smile and asked softly, "Fan, have you really fallen in love with me so quickly? You don't have other intentions, do you?"

Luo Fan's heart trembled. He didn't expect Bai Zhi to ask this.

"Didn't I tell you? Although Xia Yu and I have been together for a while, I don't like her. I am just controlled by her and have no choice." Luo Fan said as he continued to pick food for Bai Zhi and added, "But you are different. After spending these few days together, I really think you are a lively, cute, beautiful and chic girl. You are exactly my ideal type from the beginning."

"really?"

"Of course it is."

"I'm really happy." Bai Zhi ate while picking up food for Luo Fan and said with a smile, "Thank you for doing this for me. I'm very touched."

"Then... let's quickly invite that immortal to come and have dinner with us! It's just right, so he can protect us closely." After Luo Fan finished speaking, he carefully observed Bai Zhi's reaction.

"He's busy!" Bai Zhi paused, seeing through Luo Fan's "pretending not to be expectant" expression, and deliberately revealed the news: "Xia Yu insisted on stopping him from selling the 'Universal Marriage Thread', and he was quite angry. It seems that he said he would go to trouble Xia Yu tonight? It's just right, I'll help you get revenge."

Looking for trouble with Xia Yu?

Which senior brother?

I've coaxed this woman for so long, but she still hasn't revealed who is helping her behind the scenes. Why is she suddenly so alert?
Luo Fan was extremely anxious after hearing this, but he didn't dare to show his worry, so he could only smile and said, "That's great!"
