"Another person has come, Ping'er, add another chair." Nangong Ruyun reminded Zhao Kangping when she saw this.

The embarrassment on Bai's face was visible to the naked eye. However, she did not refuse. She definitely did not come here just to eat for free. She probably had something else to do.

In fact, Zhao Kangping made a little more this time, so there was enough food for one more person.

A chair was quickly added here. However, there were only eight chairs for the seven people here, including Zhao Kangping, Nangong Ruyun, Zhao Mengyao, Wan Baiyi, Ji Miaoyan, Dongfang Jingrou, and Bai Qianqian.

"Is anyone else coming?" Dongfang Jingrou asked curiously.

Then Zhao Kangping picked up a scabbard from the empty chair and said, "Just pretend Xueqing is here too."

This action made the two new girls choke.

They both knew that Luo Xueqing was still in a coma and still in the scabbard space.

But it sounds strange that the person is already dead.

Ji Miaoyan was also very shocked when she saw Zhao Kangping pick up the scabbard of the Qingni Sword. She had seen the Qingni Sword and its scabbard in her previous life, so she knew that the Qingni Sword would choose its master and would not let anyone other than its master touch it easily.

Anyone not recognized by the Qingni Sword would be rejected by it. She herself had experienced this before, and the burning sensation was still vivid in her memory. He could actually pick up the Qingni Sword's scabbard as if nothing had happened. This was truly incredible.

Dongfang Jingrou sat down and said, "We've already taken the tea garden we found today. You can take some time to go and have a look."

"Also, Qianqian is here on business."

"The Suzaku Hall really can't spare a lot of manpower, and the smuggling cases of the five major families are almost finished, and all that's left is the finishing touches."

"There's basically nothing going on over there."

"Next is the matter of the tumor monster. The Lord intends to hand it over to the Saintess to investigate. We can also provide assistance."

Having said that, the housekeeper turned her gaze to Bai Qianqian.

The latter pursed his lips and smiled, saying, "I hope that Uncle Shi and Aunt Jing can help me with this matter."

Although there were some misunderstandings between her and her uncle, after many contacts she realized that he was not a reckless man.

He might be a bit unorthodox in his relationship with his apprentice, but he was on the Master's side just like herself. So even if she couldn't maintain a very good relationship with her uncle, she couldn't show obvious hostility towards him.

Many girls here have different thoughts about Bai Qianqian's arrival.

Zhao Mengyao looked at Bai Qianqian's figure, especially her soft and tender flesh. There was a clear difference between her own and Bai Qianqian's.

This White Saint Girl wouldn't want to share Master's love, would she? She seemed to have a close relationship with Senior Sister. If she was allowed in, wouldn't that give Senior Sister an extra helper?

This is absolutely not acceptable, we must intervene.

Ji Miaoyan was also observing Bai Qianqian.

In this life, she met the Saint Bai Qianqian earlier, and her heart was filled with emotion.

The first time she saw Bai Qianqian in her previous life was when she followed Luo Xueqing back to the Zi Yang Holy Land.

Unfortunately, the Eastern Region was later invaded by the demons, and the Purple Sun Holy Land fell. Many people died in that catastrophe, including the Purple Sun Holy Lord and Miss Suzaku. She didn't hold the position of Saint for long before she became a lost cause.

In her impression, Bai Qianqian had changed so much before and after the destruction of Ziyang Holy Land that she was almost like two different people.

Although the former would occasionally make things difficult for Luo Xueqing, he at least looked like a normal person.

But later on, she became like a mad woman, especially when she was killing enemies, her blood-soaked body looked like a madman. Sometimes when she was mad, she couldn't even distinguish between friend and foe.

Later, she died in an operation. It was a pity that Ji Miaoyan didn't see her for the last time, which was quite a pity for her as a partner.

In this life, Ji Miaoyan will still try to find a way to prevent her death within her ability.

"Um, okay, fine." Zhao Kangping had no reason to refuse the little girl's request.

And he himself also wanted to thwart the mastermind behind the spread of sarcoma.

Next, everyone sat down and started eating.

This time we just ate and didn't drink.

If Bai Qianqian hadn't come, Nangong Ruyun might have taken out some wine to get Zhao Kangping drunk.

She had already made up her mind that if he didn't take the initiative, she would push him down herself under the influence of alcohol.

Unfortunately, with such a junior coming uninvited, she felt embarrassed to take action.

Chapter 325 Gender Male

As for the investigation of the sarcoma monster, it will not be difficult to find out any clues as long as the Holy Land starts to pay attention to it.

Although the Holy Land only assigned the Saintess to investigate, she represented the Holy Lord's will. Therefore, as long as the Saintess spoke, everyone in Chuanliu City involved in the case would unconditionally cooperate with the investigation.

With just one sentence, Dongfang Jingrou made more than 20 maids in the mansion follow Bai Qianqian to participate in the investigation.

As for where to start the investigation, Zhao Kangping provided an idea.

Just go to the sewer area of ​​​​Chuanliu City.

Zhao Kangping and his team were originally investigating the warehouse where smuggled tributes were stored, but they found many tumorous monsters in the sewer.

After that, the leader of the Black Snake Gang, which once dominated the underground, died, and the gang suffered heavy casualties. The Black Snake Gang never recovered from this, and even the remaining Black Snake Gang members started an internal conflict in order to decide on a new leader.

When Zhao Kangping learned of this, he dispatched the city guards to suppress the Black Snake Gang members who were causing trouble. His method was simple: he cultivated an obedient group and eliminated the disobedient ones. In this way, he recruited the Black Snake Gang members.

It is impossible for Chuanliu City to be completely free of black areas. For the sake of convenience in control, he felt it would be safer to take control himself.

Moreover, the Black Snake Gang had been severely damaged and was now just a mob, so he felt there was no need to wipe them out. Controlling the Black Snake Gang would help him control some of the local black markets and underground intelligence systems.

After his supervision, the Black Snake Gang has become much more honest and no longer gets involved in illegal activities such as human trafficking, prostitution, illegal gambling, and the manufacture of banned drugs.

Back to the investigation of the tumor monster, there were many survivors who had witnessed the monster. By interviewing the survivors one by one, they also found some valuable information.

Many people claimed to have seen a mysterious girl among the tumorous monsters, and their descriptions of her appearance were similar to those provided by the people on the pleasure boat.

It's almost certain that it's the same person.

The group then went to the secret alchemy workshop underground in the Black Snake Gang's stronghold.

It had been sealed off since the last time, with no one allowed in. It was unsealed for this investigation.

Bai Qianqian and the maids soon found a set of suspicious footprints somewhere in the workshop.

On Blue Star, there are some criminal investigation methods that use footprints to restore the height, weight and other data of suspects. There are similar things in the world of immortal cultivation.

One of the maids drove a mechanical puppet that looked like a dog, and let the puppet dog sniff the footprints.

"It's been a while, but there should still be a small amount of scent left. If we can collect more samples, we might be able to get a more complete result." The maid who drove the puppet dog said something that others could not quite understand.

Bai Qianqian didn't quite understand, so she asked, "Can you find out anything?"

The maid did not answer, but made a gesture of silence.

I saw that the puppet dog was smelling the series of footprints and running in a certain direction.

They also chased after him.

After turning a few corners, they came to a place that looked like a study. In this room, there was a secret passage leading to the sewer area.

Previously, they entered this secret alchemy workshop through the road Zhao Kangping told them. It turned out that there was another road leading to the sewer.

Bai Qianqian and the maid chased the puppet dog out of the underground workshop and returned to the sewer world.

But they are now in a residential area, where they can see many poor people in tattered clothes.

Both of them burst out with the fierce aura of being monks, which forced back these lower-class people.

The puppet dog kept running and running, and finally ran into a storefront with a plaque that read "Zizaiwo".

This place used to be a brothel, but it was shut down. The women who were trafficked or abducted have been released. The organizers of the brothel have also been arrested. Now, the place is deserted.

Bai Qianqian and the maid followed the puppet dog until they found it deep inside the den, in a place resembling a prison cell.

It stopped beside a sack and was using its nose to push at the opening of the sack.

Then I heard it barking, and the puppet dog's eyes, which were made of some unknown gem, also emitted a light blue light.

The maid said excitedly: "Okay, we have collected enough data."

The so-called data is actually the smell of the suspect, as well as some dandruff or fallen hair. These things happened to be in this sack.

Before Bai Qianqian could ask her, the puppet dog squatted on the ground and suddenly began to speak in a very mechanical tone: "The target is male, with a bone age of approximately fourteen to fifteen, a height of around six feet, and a weight of between eighty-six and ninety-five kilograms. His cultivation level is between the late foundation building stage and the middle stage of the golden elixir."

"???"

Both of them heard a key word.

Gender: Male.

This does not match the girl's description by the witnesses.

……

Zhao Kangping took the girls to inspect the newly purchased tea garden.

The tea garden is located on a hillside outside the city, covering a total area of ​​a little over 37 acres.

Before the Qiu family evacuated, they called away all the tea farmers here and set fire to the place, trying to destroy it.

However, the mountain was humid and it was winter, so the temperature was very low. The fire did not spread too far and burned out on its own after only burning one-tenth of the area.

"It's not suitable to pick tea leaves at this season. There should still be time to recultivate the tea before picking the spring tea next year." Zhao Kangping looked at the ruined tea garden and felt a little sad, but he was confident that he could bring it back to life.

Accompanying him this time were Dongfang Jingrou, Zhao Mengyao, Wan Baiyi and Nangong Ruyun.

They walked together in the tea garden, stopping and starting, and chatting from time to time.

"How do you plan to manage this tea garden?" asked Nangong Ruyun.

In fact, Zhao Kangping had no experience in this area, and he bought this place on a whim.

"I don't quite understand it myself, but I can hire some people who do," said Zhao Kangping.

Spiritual tea was cultivated here, so naturally, some casual cultivators with relatively low cultivation levels were employed to tend the tea garden. The cultivation of spiritual tea was similar to that of some spiritual herbs and medicines, requiring cultivators to regularly cast spells for irrigation or pest control.

A spirit gathering array was also set up underground in the tea garden to supply the spiritual energy needed for the growth of spiritual tea. This spirit gathering array was mainly provided for spiritual tea, and cultivators were not necessarily suitable for practicing in it, with the exception of cultivators with wood spiritual roots.

"Jingrou, what do you think about us cooperating with those small families that sell spiritual tea leaves?" Zhao Kangping said.

Before he even started running his tea garden, he was already thinking about sales channels.

In the past, the Qiu family controlled more than half of the spiritual tea supply in Chuanliu City, and had a significant influence on the pricing of spiritual tea.

His idea was also to support those small families.

"If you just buy it for fun, it doesn't matter. If you want to earn spirit stones, I suggest you contact the Qianshang Alliance to expand sales." Dongfang Jingrou said.

Then she continued, "Those small families are usually suppressed by the big families. They are not big in size and may not be able to consume the share of tea produced here."

After listening to her explanation, Zhao Kangping suddenly understood. He didn't know these details before.

This made him feel that it was great to have a secretary, as she was very qualified as a staff member and think tank.

Zhao Kangping glanced at the tea garden again. The wind blew the tea trees swaying like rows of green waves.

Then he saw that the White Snake had run far away. She seemed to have been running in the tea garden. When she got tired, she lay down on the tea tree. As a result, the tea tree could not support her weight and collapsed.

Zhao Mengyao was also under a tall tea tree in the distance, and she seemed to want to climb the tree.

As for Nangong Ruyun, she ran to the top of the mountain where the tea garden was located to enjoy the scenery.

Now they were alone together.

The housekeeper also noticed this, and her pretty face quickly turned red.

"It's just the two of us." She calmly closed the distance between them.

"Ah?" Zhao Kangping hadn't realized that the woman's breathing had become a little disordered.

But what she did next could not be ignored.

Her two snake-like arms suddenly passed through his armpits and hugged him in a lightning-fast manner.

The woman's soft body rested against his back, and an intoxicating fragrance penetrated his nostrils. She had used a lot of perfume in her bath, and it was indeed very lethal.

Zhao Kangping felt like he was losing control of himself.

"You haven't looked for me at night these few days since you came back from Yunze. I asked Mengyao, and you didn't go to her place either. Do you have a new love?" The housekeeper stood on tiptoe and said with her red lips close to his ear.

The words were so blunt. If he didn't answer properly, she would probably start to think too much. He had never thought that this woman could be so jealous.

"What are you thinking? I'm very tired recently. Can't you let me take a break?" Zhao Kangping did not tell her about the heavenly book.

He had only recently emerged from the nightmare of being untouchable, and the psychological trauma was still there. Although he had become the exclusive untouchable of his senior sister, how could he dare to tell others about the bitterness of it.
