Folklore: The baby starts the game, and the mother takes off her painted skin

Chapter 168: Take action—villain Liu Bai?
Immediately afterwards, the voice of the grass rang in Liu Bai's mind.

"Sir, I guess it won't be long before this fox girl will write to you. Do you believe it?"

"She will certainly write to you and ask you to come and rescue her."

The grass was also very cunning, mumbling to itself and not daring to show its face.

Shen Ruoruo had never seen him, but the fox girl had seen him, so naturally she couldn't show up to avoid being discovered.

"I guess so. It just depends on when."

While Liu Bai and Shen Ruoruo were talking, she was still making things difficult for this "old friend".

Most women hold grudges, and I am even more so.

"Why, didn't you have dinner tonight? That's all the noise."

The fox girl saluted for the third time, and this time her voice was louder.

Shen Ruoruo was satisfied. "Yeah, that's right. You look much more energetic. Go and rest early. We have to go into the mountains early tomorrow morning. I'll have to trouble you then."

The fox girl, who had just stood up, trembled slightly when she heard these words, as if she saw her painful future.

They all went their separate ways, and Liu Bai did not go to Shen Ruoruo's deer cart, but followed Situ Hong back to the carriage.

"Sir, this newcomer Tu Shanqian seems to have a big grudge against Miss Shen."

"It looks like it to me."

It was the first time that Liu Bai knew the name of the fourth fox girl. He just wondered if she had thought of this day when she took advantage of his power to bully Miss Shen.
Well... although I did put in a lot of effort at that time, it was the fourth sister Tu Shanqian who shouted at me, so there was nothing I could do.

But when he thought about the expression on Lao Si's face just now, Liu Bai couldn't stop laughing.

Not only him, the grass was also smiling.

"Sir, what are you laughing at?"

"No, it's nothing."

After meeting the new matchmaker, Liu Bai left. He was afraid that if the fox girl couldn't stand it all night, she would write to him...

When she throws the carrier pigeon away, it will fall from one end to the other and land in her hands...that would be troublesome.

At night, Liu Bai did not take any pains and returned to Toad Mountain to guard the area all night.

But still no clues were found.

He came back early the next day and set out with the team again. Compared to yesterday, today was considered as entering Mount Danshan.

The team, which was originally marching at a fast pace, immediately slowed down and everyone walked very carefully.

I was afraid of breaking some taboo and attracting something that shouldn't be attracted.

After all, they are all Yin-walkers, so they still have to follow the rules, including Liu Bai, who sits obediently on Shen Ruoruo's deer cart.

Of course, there is an exception, and that is the matchmaker Tu Shanqian.

Because she was the only mountain spirit in the team, and her boss, matchmaker Shen Ruoruo, gave her a small task, she had to run back and forth.

One moment he had to drive away the evil spirits from the surrounding mountains, the next moment he had to make sure they didn't hit any road evil spirits.

We must also keep an eye on these ghost walkers.

So she would appear at the front of the team one moment and be busy at the back of the team the next.

After just one morning, she turned back into her original form, lying on a stone by the roadside, motionless, with no desire to live.

There weren't originally so many things to do, but Shen Ruoruo was deliberately making things difficult for her and found so many things to do.

"Sir, why don't you think this fox girl ran away?"

The grass whispered in Liu Bai's mind.

"Run? That's unless she wants to...oh no, the original life of Taoist Erxiao, she was hiding everywhere."

"Ah? Why is that? Didn't she tell you before that she came back because the matchmaker was willing to give her a position as a matchmaker? She must also look down on the matchmaker."

Xiaocao believed what the fox spirit said at that time.

Liu Bai lay on the deer cart, looking at the trees in the distance. "She's just bragging, do you believe it? Being able to join this matchmaker club and become a matchmaker is a great thing for her."

Liu Bai had already realized this a long time ago, if he really wanted to tell this fox girl.

Why did she have to suffer this injustice?

Ran away a long time ago.

Isn't it just because he is attracted by the benefits that the matchmaker will give? And if he really runs away at this time, he will definitely face the pursuit of the matchmaker.

After all, a matchmaker's meeting is not a place like Yihonglou, where you can't come and go as you please.

"Tsk, well, the words of this vixen really can't be trusted. Humph, luckily my young master is smart and won't be fooled by this vixen."

We stopped to rest for a while on the way and then set off again.

As for lunch, we are all on a journey, so if we are hungry on the way, we can just eat something by ourselves.

But along the way, Liu Bai didn't see the geological survey girl Mo get off the carriage. She stayed in the carriage the whole time without saying a word.

The team set out again, and Miss Tushan, the matchmaker, got busy again.

What Liu Bai didn't expect was that she neither admitted defeat and surrendered to Shen Ruoruo, nor did she rush to ask Liu Bai, her third brother, for help. She just carried it all on her own.

This made Liu Baigao look at him more or less.

That afternoon, Liu Bai was called over by Shen Ruoruo again to keep her company, but he didn't stay there for long... Liu Bai suddenly felt a slight vibration coming from the chessboard of life and death in his Xumi.

The opportunity...is here!
Liu Bai even felt that he didn't need to get any information from Situ Busheng, as he could confirm whether Shen Ruoruo was the Black Elephant.

He didn't even turn around to look, just leaned there.

At the same time, he was waiting silently. Sure enough, the chessboard kept shaking, and less than two breaths passed.

Shen Ruoruo spoke up. She was still lying on the chair, and then she said as if she had no energy: "Brother, you go back first. I want to sleep for a while."

"what?"

"Ok."

There was a trace of sadness on Liu Bai's face, but he was almost certain in his heart.

This little girl!

She's pretending to be an old woman on the chessboard of life and death!
"Be good, I'll take a nap and then call you."

Shen Ruoruo had already stood up and urged, so Liu Bai got off the deer cart, and then Situ Hong came to pick him up quickly.

But Liu Bai didn't leave, but stayed here.

Whether it is the black elephant or Shen Ruoruo in front of him, they are both sneaky people. If you want to use chess pieces, you have to ignite fire.

But Liu Bai waited here for a while and didn't notice the smell of fire in the deer cart.

So he tried to light a fire. His movement naturally attracted the attention of other ghost walkers. After all, the forest was fine and there was no evil spirit. How could there be a fire suddenly?

But among the Yin-walkers present, except Situ Hong and Tu Shanqian, the rest are just like Liu Bai, the matchmakers who gather the five energies.

But when they saw the raging fire on Liu Bai's body, they all turned their eyes away.

There is no other reason, I just feel like a waste after watching it.

He was not even as good as a five or six-year-old child.

Even Miss Mo, after noticing someone had set a fire, stuck her head out to take a look. After seeing the situation clearly, there was a hint of surprise in her eyes.

Liu Bai lit the fire of life, and the black general's chess piece soon appeared on the chessboard of life and death. He also saw that on the chessboard, the black elephant, the red pawn, and the red horse were all there.

But no one in the deer cart next to him lit the fire.

What's happening?

Did I make a wrong judgment?
Seeing that there was no movement, Liu Bai followed Situ Hong.

At the same time, the voices of people and ghosts were heard on the chessboard, but this time they were obviously not important. The red pawn and the red horse were just asking each other if they had received any new information recently.

After all, in the past few days, nothing major happened, not only on the chessboard, but even in Yunzhou City.

Each of them was like a mountain rat, digging non-stop in the Dan Mountain, digging one mountain and then another.

But unfortunately, there is no news about any of them, including the Black Elephant.

Instead, the Red Soldier said, "Hey!" and said, "Black Elephant and Black General, why are you two heading up Mount Xian?"

Liu Bai naturally did not say anything, and Black Elephant replied: "Now is a great opportunity, why don't you come up and check it out? What if luck comes and I run into the location of Sunset Mountain... Tsk tsk."

"Haha, half of your body is already buried in the ground, and you are still thinking about this. It would be better for you to think about where to be buried after you die."

The Red Pawn's mouth is as aggressive as ever.

Red Horse immediately spoke up, "Actually, what Black Elephant said makes some sense. Well, I've been in this city for so long, and there's nothing to do anyway. Why don't I try my luck in the mountains?"

"Granny Black Elephant, remember to wait for me."

After saying this, Red Horse scattered the chess pieces.

Seeing that there was nothing fun to watch, Liu Bai also put out his life-threatening fire.

But the chess game on the chessboard of life and death was over, and Liu Bai didn’t see Shen Ruoruo send anyone to call him. Could it be that... she is not actually the black elephant?

This made Liu Bai, who had almost confirmed the other party's identity, have a little doubt again. He even thought about whether he should just force himself on her...

Shuiche'ao is still quite far away. Even if you go into Xianshan, you can't get there in one day. You have to camp here for a night.

There is no need to look for a place to camp. The mountain path from Yunzhou City to Shuiche'ao has been trampled out by these sneakers.

At first, according to the rules of this forest, even if the path was trampled, it would grow back after one night.

But this road is still walked on day and night.

So gradually, a road appeared in the forest from Yunzhou City to Shuiche'ao. The place where they stopped for the night was called "Laoaopo", a depression surrounded by two mountains. Someone had already built a shed there.

While waiting for Liu Bai and the others to arrive, some people were already resting here.

When they saw the purple banner with the word "matchmaker" on it, they knew that the matchmaker was coming, so they all made way, and everyone went to one shed, and the rest made way.

After the women at the matchmaking party stopped, they all started to tidy up their accommodation for the night. They made the bed and cleaned the place without anyone telling them what to do.

Tu Shanqian had a rare chance to rest, but was soon called away by Shen Ruoruo.

He said it was not far from Shuiche'ao, so he asked her to go first so that she could hand over the work to the people over there, and then wait for Shen Ruoruo to get there quickly.

After all, people who travel in seclusion don’t dare to travel at night, and Tu Shanqian is a mountain spirit.

What's more, her strength is not weak, so naturally she doesn't have to worry about these things.

The matchmaker had made arrangements, so Tu Shanqian naturally didn't dare to object. She could only lie on the ground with tears in her eyes, dragging her exhausted body, and transformed into a snow-white fox, jumping into the woods.

Liu Bai guessed that Tu Shanqian would send him a message tonight.

Sure enough, not long after it got dark, Liu Bai, who was in the carriage, saw a pigeon land on the window.

Situ Hong couldn't see it, but Liu Bai still let her get off first. When there was no one left in the car, Liu Bai took the letter from the pigeon's ankle.

There was no familiar fox smell, but there was a scent of osmanthus. It was obvious that Tu Shanqian knew that Liu Bai didn't like it, so she used this to cover up her own smell.

Liu Bai opened the letter and the first sentence was:

"Third brother, I'm going to die."

"Third brother, if you don't come to save me, you will have to wait for me to collect my body."

Liu Bai couldn't help laughing when he saw this. Xiao Cao also smiled and said, "Sir, I thought she could still endure it, but I didn't expect that she would ask you for help now."

"She is not a person who can tolerate it."

Liu Bai recalled the last time she took advantage of the situation.

"It seems so. Sir, do you want to help her?"

"Help me. After all, if we don't seize this opportunity, it will be even harder to take action once we get to Shuiche'ao."

Liu Baibian said that he had also finished reading the contents of the letter.

It was nothing more than this vixen talking about the inhuman treatment she had endured in the past two days, saying that she had been tolerant but was still bullied everywhere.

It would be fine if she just said all that, but the most hateful thing was Shen Ruoruo, who relied on the fact that she had cultivated the Yang God to scold Third Brother for being wrong, and even said that if Third Brother was in front of her, she would dare to beat him until he knelt down and begged for mercy.

All of these things are as bad as they can be.

Liu Bai watched it all day long, so he naturally knew which ones were true and which ones were false.

At the end of the letter, Tu Shanqian marked her location.

Liu Bai took a look and found that she didn't go to Shuiche'ao at all, but was hiding nearby. It was obvious that she had made up her mind that Liu Bai would come.

Liu Bai thought about it and wrote back to her, saying that he would take care of the matter and she didn't need to worry about it.

After all, Liu Bai never thought of taking Shen Ruoruo to meet Tu Shanqian, as that might go wrong. He only wanted to... get the matchmaker's skills!
Having made up his mind, Liu Bai released the carrier pigeon, called Situ Hong back, gave her a few words of instruction, and then went out.

He pretended to go to the bathroom, and then joked with the matchmaking ladies who passed by.

Tell Liu Bai to be careful with the fork-worms in the forest, so as not to lose the heirloom.

Liu Bai pretended not to understand. After entering the woods, he took a step forward and disappeared.

When he was in the third level ghost body, he was already able to dissolve into the darkness.

Now that he has reached the fifth level of ghost body...there is no problem at all. He even waited for him to walk past those matchmakers who were joking just now without them noticing.

Liu Bai walked as if he was in an empty place and arrived in front of Shen Ruoruo's deer cart smoothly.

Even she didn't notice it until Liu Bai knocked gently on her car window and then she stuck her head out.

The next moment... Liu Bai and she disappeared in Laoaopo.

By the time Shen Ruoruo realized what was happening, they were already in the night sky. She said in astonishment, "You... Tu Shanqian called you here!"

She recognized Liu Bai at first sight.

"No, I just miss you." Liu Bai looked at Shen Ruoruo who was in his arms, grinning with his fangs showing, looking bloodthirsty.

Being so close, Shen Ruoruo could feel the aura coming from Liu Bai that made it almost impossible for her to resist.

But this... is obviously just a monster, not one of those evil spirits hiding in Mount Dan, so why does it have such terrifying power?

Shen Ruoruo's face turned pale with fright, and she soon discovered that the "evil" in front of her was taking her deeper into Mount Xian.

"Where are you taking me?" Shen Ruoruo asked.

Liu Bai was still smiling, "Of course I will take you back to my Ghost King Village and make you my wife."

After he said that, he could clearly feel Shen Ruoruo's body stiffen, and even her breathing stopped for a moment.

Liu Bai laughed loudly.

So is it so cool to be a villain?

Liu Bai laughed and randomly picked a mountain to fall down. A bolt of lightning directly struck the evil ghost on the mountain to death.

Then he threw Shen Ruoruo to the ground casually, without any intention of showing any mercy to her.

"Come on, you seem a little dissatisfied? If you are dissatisfied, let's have a fight first."

Liu Bai grinned, and another bolt of lightning struck in front of Shen Ruoruo, but it did not strike her directly.

But even though it fell so close, Shen Ruoruo's already pale face turned red instantly, and blood even flowed from the corner of her mouth.

Seeing this, Liu Bai also thought to himself, "As expected."

"This man who cultivates the Yang spirit and walks in the Yin cannot withstand a few blows from me. If I use too much force, I might even kill him."

Shen Ruoruo raised her white and tender little hand to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth, and sneered, "Tell me, you evil spirit, why did you capture me?"

"If I really have to obey a ghost like you, huh, I would rather die!" Shen Ruoruo looked like a strong-willed woman.

Liu Bai crossed his arms over his chest, circled around her, and then said with a smile: "You? You have small arms and legs, your body is as flat as a board, and you don't have any flesh on your body. How could this Ghost King be interested in you?"

It was clearly a sarcastic remark. If someone had said this to Shen Ruoruo on a normal day, she would have been furious.

But at this moment she felt relieved when she heard it.

"Then tell me, what do you want from me?!"

She raised her head, and there was no sign of compromise in her eyes.

Liu Bai did not play with her anymore, but came close to her and said softly: "Show me all the skills you matchmakers know, and I will let you go."

"what?"

Shen Ruoruo thought a lot, and even wondered if the ghost was going to fry her in a frying pan and eat her, but she never expected it would be this.

"What do you, an evil spirit, need this magic for?"

"Don't worry about it, just hand over the things."

Liu Bai finally stopped in front of her.

Shen Ruoruo sneered and shook her head, "You want me to betray the Matchmaker Association? Ha, your thunder is quite good, just kill me as soon as possible."

"No?"

Liu Bai's smile was somewhat playful.

"I won't give it to you even if I die!"

Shen Ruoruo still looks like a principled and self-defeating person, but it doesn't matter. Liu Bai thought about it for a moment and nodded, "Okay, then I will make you... beg for it in a moment."

After saying that, a ghost figure walked out from behind Liu Bai and then disappeared on the top of the mountain.

Shen Ruoruo didn't know what the evil spirit in front of her wanted to do, but she couldn't run away, so she could only wait here, as if... waiting to die.

Liu Bai's ghost left quickly and came back quickly.

It only took a few breaths to return. Then Liu Bai took a few steps back. The ghost came forward, but he didn't make any movement. He just stretched out his hand towards Shen Ruoruo in front of him.

The latter immediately let out a heart-wrenching scream.

"what!!!!"
