Quietly moving to the window and looking out, he saw Zhao Changhe walking out with Ji Chengkong, asking, "When I travel around the world, I lack a good light skill. This blood-leaving skill could be considered good, but my luggage is too heavy, and it looks very ordinary. I can't do secret investigations like this, so I have to trouble Brother Ji."
Sisi slumped her shoulders and let out a sigh.
But Ji Chengkong said: "Isn't this normal? How many people are omnipotent? Besides, it is well known that you have only been practicing martial arts for a short time. If you are strong in everything, how can others live? In my opinion, your "Treading Blood Without Trace" is indeed good. It is considered a high-end Qinggong in the Blood God Sect. That's enough..."
"The Blood God Cult itself is like that. Even if they have some impressive skills, they are not good at Qinggong. What's the use of their high-end Qinggong..." Zhao Changhe said, "If I want to find your master to learn your Qinggong, is there a chance?"
Ji Chengkong looked at him for a long time as if he was looking at a rookie in the martial arts world. "Unless you are willing to become my disciple, it will be impossible. Are you willing? If you are willing, I think my master would be happy to accept you, a famous person on the Hidden Dragon List, as his disciple, but I don't think you would be willing."
"No idea of exchange?"
"No, this is the guy who eats, how can I replace him... Especially after what happened a few days ago, the master doesn't even want to accept a disciple now."
Sisi pinched her head.
Zhao Changhe pretended to be stunned: "What's the matter? Oh, it's inconvenient to talk about it, forget it."
"It's not inconvenient. Maybe Brother Zhao can help with this matter." Ji Chengkong sighed and said, "About half a year ago, a little girl came to my sect. She was full of sweet words and treated me like a treasure. My master quickly taught her the core skills, including our Qinggong, the art of empty hands, and the art of changing appearance and makeup... But after she learned all the skills, she just slipped away without even saying thank you."
Zhao Changhe resisted the urge to turn around and look at Sisi, and said with a dry cough: "So Brother Ji is looking for this... traitor?"
"Say he's a traitor, but Master didn't issue a hunting order. Instead, he said he was hunting geese all day but got his eyes pecked by geese, and he was stealing all his life but someone stole his house. Then he laughed and said it was very funny and asked us not to take it seriously." Ji Chengkong was speechless: "Even though he said that, how could we bear it? We must catch this man and hand him over to Master for punishment."
At this point, he turned his head and glanced at the window where Sisi was, seemingly unintentionally: "In fact, if this person goes back and admits his mistake, Master really won't mind it. Brother Zhao, if you have the chance to meet this person in the future, you might as well tell her directly."
Zhao Changhe said: "You have to tell me whether it's a boy or a girl, and what's her name, right?"
"She's a girl. As for her name, it doesn't really matter, because the name she made up may not be true. She said her name was Xiang Simeng, but she might call herself Sisi or Mengmeng. Maybe she deliberately made it up to make people think about her. Anyway, no matter what kind of personality she shows, don't believe it. We in the Thief Sect have special training for performance. If your soul is hooked, don't say your brother didn't warn you."
Zhao Changhe asked, "Could it be that Brother Ji is also the one whose soul was bewitched?"
Ji Chengkong smiled bitterly: "A little bit, who didn't love her at that time? In the end, she turned out to be a heartless and ungrateful little witch. Let's go. It's embarrassing to talk about it. There's no point."
Ji Chengkong disappeared quickly. Zhao Changhe returned to the house with a smile on his face, singing a little song: "It woke me up from my longing dream. What's the point of longing..."
Sisi turned her head away speechlessly: "The protagonist of a story that has nothing to do with you is also called Sisi, why are you singing a song to me? You don't think that's me, do you?"
"No, no, if it's really that, at least change your name when you're talking to me, right?"
Sisi immediately became happy: "Of course, no one is so stupid as to use a name."
"Yeah, that kind of thing that even an idiot could fool a thief into doing anything will show up in all kinds of ways in my hands."
Sisi wondered if there was something wrong with what he said. If you are not alone, why would you be an idiot? Well, if you were alone... Even if you were alone, I would not have thought that you would be familiar with Ji Chengkong!
She pinched her forehead and said with a headache, "Master, you deliberately asked Ji Chengkong to investigate the Lu family, but in the end you didn't find any results. But you are in the mood to ask about other people's family affairs. Aren't you bored?"
"Who said there are no results?" Zhao Changhe said, "Didn't they say there is a forbidden area that only the direct descendants of the Lu family can enter?"
"Then what? We don't know what's inside. Ji Chengkong can disguise himself. Why don't you let him try to disguise himself as a young master of the Lu family and go in to see?"
"The chances of not being able to get out are very high. He is not related to me, how could he be willing to do this?" Zhao Changhe looked at Sisi and said, "What a pity. If you were that Sisi, maybe you could help." "That Sisi would not go and die."
"But what if you just help me change my appearance?"
Sisi asked, "Since you know you may not be able to get out once you go in, why do you still want to go?"
"Not now." Zhao Changhe looked out the window dimly: "If I'm not mistaken, we can wait for a while... There won't be many people in the Lu family by then."
Just as Sisi was about to ask, Tang Buqi's voice came from outside: "I've been out all day investigating a case, and I was wondering where you've been. So you've just been playing as a maid here all day?"
Sisi: “…”
Zhao Changhe said: "Isn't this a chance for you to show your abilities? So, have you found anything?"
"No." Tang Buqi walked into the house, picked up the tea on the table and gulped down a sip: "It's so unlucky. The only places they go to in common are red-light districts and visiting each other... Speaking of visiting, they also came to my house to visit..."
Sisi said carefully: "Master Tang, a guest just drank that tea, men..."
"Puff..." Tang Buqi spat out all the tea in his mouth and pointed at Sisi tremblingly: "As expected, people from the same family stick together. The maids follow their masters and can do whatever disgusting things they want."
Zhao Changhe knocked on the table: "Hey, I'm really trying to help you investigate the case, is that how you look at me?"
"Really?" Tang Buqi rolled his eyes and said, "I can't tell."
Zhao Changhe chuckled: "Then I'm going to tell you something now. You'd better take it seriously and be prepared."
Tang Buqi was stunned. Zhao Changhe's performance in Yangzhou still left a deep impression on him. His words still carried a lot of weight: "You say."
"If, I mean if, the Lu family, the Gu family, and others come to the Tang family and say that the evil spirit came from the Tiger Hill Sword Pond, what will you do?"
Tang Buqi sneered, "There's nothing in the sword pond... They're just fooling around. The Tang family is not to be trifled with."
Zhao Changhe said: "If at this moment, Jian Chi's evil spirit really surged into the sky, what do you think would happen?"
Tang Buqi's nonchalant expression slowly faded, and he whispered, "Several families have been contaminated by the evil spirit today... If something like this really happens, the Tang family will lose its reputation, and they might even be pushed down by the angry families... But the problem is, there is really nothing in the Huqiu Sword Pond..."
Zhao Changhe said solemnly, "I don't care if something will really appear in Huqiu Sword Pond. I am only warning you one thing now: notify your aunt immediately. If she has been notified and is on the way and can't make it in time, then you should immediately contact the Gusu army and the Demon Suppression Division and ambush near the Tang family. Make all preparations for battle. Remember this."
Tang Buqi was about to say something when he heard a commotion in the distance. Soon, a man who looked like a butler ran over breathlessly, "Master, Master, the four major families in Gusu have gathered a group of people and are standing at the door making a fuss, saying that the evil spirit of Gusu was leaked from our sword pond, and they want us to give an explanation!"
Tang Buqi stood up with a changed expression. Zhao Changhe grabbed him and said, "Let your father and the others deal with this first. You go to the military camp as soon as possible. Right now!"
