Chapter 393

Fu Xuanrong freshened up in high spirits, then changed into a gentle long dress, and left the inn with Li Junhao under an umbrella.

There is a river on both sides of the town here, and there are many boats docked by the river. Although it is raining at the moment, the boatman is holding a huge umbrella, which does not affect it.

"Ma'am, son, would you like some persimmons? I just picked them, they are very sweet!"

"Okay, give me a few!"

The boatman swiftly wrapped several bags for her and handed them over, "Madam, take it well, it's a total of three Wen."

Fu Xuanrong didn't have the habit of bringing money with her when she went out. She was about to urge Li Junhao to pay the bill, but saw that he had already taken out his money bag as usual.

After paying for the persimmons, Fu Xuanrong strolled around the river in a good mood. By now, she had eaten all the fruits. She crumpled up the paper towels and tossed them leisurely for fun. "Li Junhao, look at that big mansion in front, why is the door covered with talisman paper?"

"Ma'am, I'm afraid this is your first time in our town? You don't even know this?" Fu Xuanrong just finished asking, and an old man beside him responded.

"Old man, you are really right. It is indeed my first time to come to Shengze Town. I wonder what's wrong with that house?"

The old man looked around and said mysteriously: "In that house, there used to be a family named Bai. Mr. Bai is a kind person, and he often set up a porridge shop to help the poor, but his son is a complete bastard. .”

"Oh? I don't know what kind of bastard method?"

"Well, it's a long story. Five years ago, Mr. Bai's health became worse and worse, so he handed over the power of the family to his only son, Bai Ze. Who would have thought that he would search for beautiful women and bring them into the mansion? In 30, there were already more than [-] concubines."

Fu Xuanrong clicked her tongue, "He is indeed a licentious person, but it is common for wealthy families to have wives and concubines in groups, and this does not seem to be too stupid."

"This is just the beginning, and more bastards are yet to come. Baize's concubines were almost all forcibly snatched back. God probably opened his eyes and knew that this kind of scourge cannot be left behind, so he got a strange disease. The pustules and skin ulceration on the face are as scary as you want."

Fu Xuanrong imagined that scene for a moment, and instantly got goosebumps all over her body, "What about after that?"

"Afterwards, Bai Ze searched all over for a miracle doctor, but he still couldn't cure his illness. Suddenly, one day, he found a Taoist priest from nowhere, and said that as long as he killed his father, his illness would be cured immediately."

"What did you say?!" Fu Xuanrong almost thought that there was something wrong with her ears.

The old man sighed: "Ma'am, you heard me right, that Bai Ze was desperate, he was unwilling to die suddenly so early, so he made a bowl of poison for his father, and poisoned him to death."

"What about the result? He recovered?"

"Isn't it just cured? If you say it's really evil, such a shocking method can actually cure the disease. Do you think it's strange?"

Li Junhao sneered after listening for a while, "It's ridiculous."

Fu Xuanrong nodded in agreement, "It's really absurd, I don't know how that Bai Ze is doing now?"

"I lived in the mansion in front of me. I heard that the Taoist priest cured his illness and left. Although Bai Ze was cured, his luck was getting worse and worse, and the family's business could no longer continue. Now I can only live on my laurels, and live every day."

[System prompt]: The latest task, the host needs to investigate the ins and outs of the Bai family within two days.

"Two days? Isn't this too urgent? What will happen if the mission fails?" Fu Xuanrong asked in her heart.

[System prompt]: If you fail, you will die immediately.

Fu Xuanrong was extremely speechless.

She said that the task was getting more and more difficult, and there was another ten-day deadline. The affairs of the Bai family were complicated, and it was so easy to find out.

"Xuanrong, what are you thinking?" Seeing that Fu Xuanrong was in a daze, Li Junhao called her.

Fu Xuanrong came back to her senses, smiled lightly and said: "It's nothing, I just think that Mr. Bai Ze must have offended someone."

"Ma'am is right, but Mr. Bai insisted that he caused something dirty, so he went to the Buddhist temple and asked for a lot of paper talismans to stick on the door."

"Well, thank you, old man, for clarifying my doubts."

"You're welcome, I'm just talking casually, please go ahead, I have to go back and rest."

"Okay, old man, go slowly."

Watching the old man leave, Fu Xuanrong looked sideways at Li Junhao, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, "I'm afraid we have to go to the White House."

"Hmm." This matter was too weird, as the prince, he really had to investigate it, so as to calm people's hearts.

The two walked to the gate of the Baifu together. Fu Xuanrong straightened her clothes and knocked on the door.

It seems that the gate of the White Mansion has not been opened for a long time, and it took a long time before a servant came out to take a look, "Who are you?!"

Fu Xuanrong cupped her hands and said: "I am a Taoist priest who walks the rivers and lakes. I heard that the mansion is not peaceful, so I came here to take a look."

"You? A woman?" The servant obviously didn't believe it, with a look of doubt on his face.

"Although I am a woman, I am a teacher of Mount Emei. There is no charge for this investigation. If you don't believe me, just pretend that I have never been here before and leave."

"Wait a minute!" Since no money is charged, let this woman try it out, there is nothing wrong with it anyway, "You guys come in with me."

"That's work."

The two followed the servants into the mansion. It has to be said that as soon as they stepped in, there was a gloomy cold air permeating the surroundings. Everywhere they entered was lifeless, as if this place was like an old house that had been abandoned for many years.

"You guys wait here first, I'll report to Young Master."

"it is good."

When the servant walked away, Fu Xuanrong took out a talisman paper from her cuff, and gestured with her fingertips, the talisman paper spontaneously ignited instantly, and what appeared was a faint blue light.

She smiled softly, "Sure enough, it's exactly what I thought."

"what for?"

"It's okay, this talisman is to detect if there is something like Gu, and now it is flashing blue light, which means that the reason why that young master Bai is covered with pus is because someone planted a kind of Gu in his body."

Li Junhao subconsciously rejects such things as Gu, "Isn't this something unique to southern Xinjiang?"

"That's not sure. The southern border is so big. Although the country is destroyed, some people may have fled to the Central Plains."

"En." Li Junhao was silent for a moment, and then asked, "When did you worship Emei Taoist as your master?" Could it be that Fu Xuanrong really practiced on some fairy mountain before meeting him?

"Hahaha, you said that, I was talking nonsense." If you don't say it louder, people will not believe it easily.

"." He knew that eight out of ten sentences of Fu Xuanrong's words were not credible.
