Chapter 85 The restoration of Tianxiang Tower
“ha?”
The expression on Song Jie’s face changed from doubt to confusion.
He could tell from Li Caiwei’s eyes that the so-called murderer was definitely not him.
Otherwise, Li Caiwei wouldn’t be acting like she is now.
But he is indeed the murderer, so who is the murderer in Li Caiwei’s mouth? Without waiting for Song Jie to ask questions, Li Caiwei nodded and said: “It is said that the murderer’s body was hung outside Fang City by the robbery cultivator from Heifeng Mountain two days ago.
“Many monks came to see it, but unfortunately I had to look at the stalls and couldn’t get away to see it.
“I heard from the monks who came to watch the scene that there was a white banner hanging on the murderer’s body.
“It is written in blood, ‘Whoever offends our Black Wind Mountain will pay with blood.'”
When Song Jie heard this, the expression on his face changed from confusion to horror.
Not only was the murderer found, he was also killed…
This unlucky guy is taking the blame for himself.
He just wants to know now that the “murderer” is dead, is he safe? Thinking of this, Song Jie immediately asked: “Are you sure that’s the murderer?”
Li Caiwei nodded lightly.
“There should be no mistake. According to rumors, it was the boss of Heifeng Mountain, Nie Yixiong, who did it himself.”
When Song Jie heard this, his eyes showed a thoughtful look.
Judging from the current situation, the “murderer” has been killed by Nie Yixiong, and the controversy surrounding the reward order in Heifeng Mountain should be over.
The potential crisis should have been resolved, which means that I no longer have to live in fear.
However, for some reason, Song Jie always felt that everything about this matter was weird.
Something is very wrong, very wrong…
Somehow, Song Jie felt that there might be something fishy about this matter, and it was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.
But he couldn’t tell what the problem was…
Decide immediately and observe for a while.
Continue to be vigilant for at least a month.
If everything is still fine after a month, it means that the incident has really passed.
With his mind racing, Song Jie nodded and said, “Since it was Nie Yixiong who did it himself, there is nothing wrong with it.”
“Yes, no matter what, this matter is finally over.
“At least we no longer have to worry about whether Nie Yixiong will suddenly come to Xinyuefang City and affect the business of our small stalls.”
Li Caiwei sighed.
She still remembered that the last time Nie Yixiong came to Xinyuefang City, the entire central square became much deserted, and there were not a few customers in sight.
For the vast majority of low-level monks, they don’t care at all who the so-called murderer is.
What they really care about is whether their livelihood will be affected and whether the safety of Xinyuefang City can be guaranteed.
Like the Black Wind Mountain bounty order, at most it can only be regarded as a gust of wind, and after it blows over, it is gone.
After the two chatted about some other interesting stories, Song Jie also welcomed his first customer of the day.
It’s a pity that today’s first customer is not Taoist fellow Taoist Miao.
Nowadays, Song Jie’s business is getting better and better day by day.
Especially after becoming a first-level alchemist, he slowly gained a few supporters.
Customers were sent away one after another, and the number of bottles of elixirs on the stall was also reduced.
When the time came to an end, the pills Song Jie brought this time were all sold out smoothly.
After packing up the stall and saying goodbye to Li Caiwei, Song Jie left the central square.
Because it was still early to close the stall today, Song Jie turned a corner and came to the entrance of Tianxiang Tower.
Looking at this holy place for male monks, Song Jie still felt a little uneasy even though it was not his first time here.
It is true that the waiters at Tianxianglou are too enthusiastic.
If you are not careful, you may be tightly wrapped by them and trapped in the swamp of the dense forest, making it difficult to extricate yourself.
As soon as he walked into Tianxiang Tower, he was greeted by a red shopkeeper whom he had consulted last time.
“Master Song, you are here~”
The red shopkeeper looked at Song Jie with charming eyes and said softly: “I wonder if Master Song is here for consultation this time? Or is he here to favor the slave family…”
Song Jie coughed slightly in embarrassment.
When the red shopkeeper heard this, he didn’t show any disappointment on his face.
Through the last contact, she already understood Song Jie’s personality, and she was just joking with Song Jie just now.
Of course, if Song Jie really wanted to favor her, she would be very happy to do so.
“Master Song, please wait a moment. I’ll call Sister Alan over.”
The red shopkeeper gave Song Jie a wink, twisted her waist and left.
Not long after, Alan appeared in front of Song Jie.
After the two greeted each other, Alan was the first to ask: “Did Master Song come here for something important?”
It had only been a few days since the last time Song Jie came to Tianxiang Tower for consultation.
Alan didn’t think Song Jie could develop a yin-nourishing elixir in such a short period of time.
In fact, Song Jie has not yet developed the elixir.
“I’m here this time because I want to make a simple return visit.”
Song Jie considered his words for a moment before continuing: “Last time I came here, I wrote a prescription for every fairy who participated in the consultation.
“A few days have passed now, and I would like to know the latest situation of all the fairies.”
Alan nodded slightly when he heard this.
“Alchemist Song, please come with me.”
Immediately, Alan took Song Jie to the room where he had been consulted last time.
“Master Song, please wait here for a moment while I go find some girls who are free at the moment.”
Alan made tea for Song Jie, left a few words, then turned and left the room.
After just a cup of tea, Alan led several waiters back to the room.
“Except for the girl who is receiving guests, all the girls who are free now are called.
“Master Song, let’s take a look. Is there anything else you need?”
Song Jie nodded and said, “Please, Fairy Alan, please help me prepare pens, ink, paper and inkstones.”
“Okay, Master Song, please wait for a moment~”
After Alan left, Song Jie looked at the waiters with a smile.
“Fairies, let’s start, just like last time, one by one.”
“Master Song, please be gentler this time. It hurt the slave family last time~”
Suddenly, a red shopkeeper playfully teased Song Jie.
Hearing this, the other waiters also started laughing and making noises.
“It’s just that Master Song was too harsh last time, and the slave family is still feeling itchy~”
“Alchemist Song will make it up to us soon.”
……
Song Jie: “…”
If I just take a pulse, can it still hurt you? Still making you feel itchy? If I hadn’t lost my memory, I would have thought what happened to you last time…
Facing the provocations of these prostitutes, Song Jie couldn’t resist for a while.
What he is least good at is dealing with this kind of situation.
Fortunately, Alan came back in time with pen, ink, paper and inkstone to help Song Jie out of trouble.
Everything went smoothly next. Song Jie consulted the prostitutes again one by one.
Record their latest conditions and write new prescriptions for each of them.
During the consultation, several more waiters joined in after receiving the guests.
Time passes like this bit by bit.
After the consultation was over, the hostesses all left the room and were busy receiving guests.
At this time, the rays of the setting sun shone into the room from the window, filling every corner.
Everything in the room seemed to be coated with a layer of soft golden fluorescence, making it appear warm and peaceful.
