Inside the main hall.

'Little Transparent' Li Bai was stared at at the same time by the young lady, Xiao Qian'er and Zhu Yourong.

Even though he is thick-skinned, he is also a little nervous.

After all, if you accidentally say even half a word about Zhao Rong, you may be eaten alive by them in a "swarm".

Li Bai nodded.

Didn’t you see that they almost started fighting among themselves just now...

He was quite certain about this.

At this time, the women's gazes were oppressive.

Li Bai quietly glanced at the familiar dragon coffin.

I feel that if I don’t speak up, something might really happen to the young lady and Xiao Qian’er...

Besides...there is actually another reason.

Li Bai suddenly stepped forward and stood between Zhao Lingfei and the small bronze tripod.

The three women's eyes followed him all the time. They didn't pay much attention to the strange behavior of the man holding the sword. They just waited nervously for him to speak.

After blocking the young lady from the small bronze tripod related to the Li clan, Li Bai turned around and spoke directly:

"Fellow Daoist Zhu said that I should know the group of women who were in the back hall not long ago."

Zhao Lingfei and Zhao Qian'er said almost in unison: "Uncle Xiaobai, what does "should" mean?"

Li Bai choked, looked at the two aunts at home, and nodded quickly: "Okay, it must be them, I know them."

Zhao Lingfei frowned, "Why are you so sure now? You are really not sure."

Zhao Qian'er nodded, "You can't be careless about Brother Rong'er. Uncle Xiao Bai, please tell me!"

Li Bai: “…”

Then I leave?

The man holding the sword felt that this family was really unbearable. Ever since a certain uncle came in, his family status in Qinglianju had dropped sharply. In the past, the young lady and Xiao Qian'er were the same uncle...

Li Bai was a little speechless, but he still swallowed the pain silently with tears and answered honestly:

"It must be them!"

He categorically affirmed, beating his fist: "Because I was here not long ago and dealt with them."

Li Bai glanced at the expressions of Zhao Lingfei and Zhao Qian'er who were about to speak, and immediately understood, he immediately shook his head and said: "Miss, Qian'er, don't worry, they are outsiders, they are not the same group as the hiding rats who ambushed Zhao Rong, they should...

...I saw that Zhao Rong was seriously injured, so I rescued him."

Seeing that the girls had lost their patience and were willing to continue listening, Li Bai nodded and explained the matter in a calm tone.

"This time when I come to Dali, in addition to the task that the young lady asked me to protect my uncle, I also have to negotiate a business deal on behalf of our Qinglianju. Both the young lady and Qian'er should know about this."

The two masters and servants nodded.

Li Bai glanced at the big-breasted female gentleman who was out of body and looked attentive, and continued:

"The other party to this business is a rather mysterious Xian family force in the Dali Dynasty. This force is related to a certain ancestor belief popular in the Li world here. It is quite ancient... Well, not long ago, someone in the front and back halls

Those women are not the concubines of the late Emperor Da Li, they belong to this power."

Zhao Lingfei, Zhao Qianer and Zhu Yourong exchanged glances with each other.

To be able to use the Dali Imperial Mausoleum as a foothold, it is conceivable that this "quite ancient" force in Li Bai's words has a close relationship with the Dali Imperial Family, and may be the manipulator behind it...

Thinking of this, the three girls thought of the lonely queen mother of Dali whom they had seen not long ago on the high platform on the mountainside of Jiyue Mountain...

However, they soon became indifferent. The three women were all going to return to Duyou City. The separation had nothing to do with them in the end, as long as it did not involve Zhao Rong.

"Today is the appointed day. I met with this force to discuss business. A woman they sent to escort me directly brought me to this imperial mausoleum, also in this main hall..."

When Li Bai talked about "picking up women", he controlled his eyes and did not look at Xiao Qian'er.

Because the little girl also knows her.

It was the divorced daughter Luo Xiu who was "released" by Zhao Rong that day in Xingzi Town.

Li Bai hesitated for a moment and thought it would be better not to mention it.

At least he couldn't bring it up on his own initiative.

Even he could think of what might happen after Luo Xiu, who owned the Pure White Han Palace, rescued Zhao Rong, Li Bai didn't believe that the suspicious cat-like Xiao Qian'er would not think of it.

In fact, this was the reason why he was not anxious at all and felt quite reassured about Zhao Rong's safety.

After all, that brat might not only be alive and well, but also enjoy the huge opportunity of being accompanied by sex.

Maybe he is still lying there in the gentle countryside, enjoying the gentle service and repayment of the generous chivalrous lady to the benefactor.

Being called by the heroine as 'Benefactor' and 'Master'...

He really has taken all the luck in the world.

Li Bai sighed and sighed, completely forgetting the strong opposition of the tall and godlike woman to Zhao Rong, the cheap son-in-law not long ago.

The man smiled at this time and said to the girls: "So when I first came in, I was actually quite familiar..."

Xiao Qian'er said coldly: "You are familiar with it, and so is my brother Rong'er."

"..."

Li Bai was stunned for a moment at first, and then realized that the taste in Xiao Qian'er's mouth was familiar, and the other was roasted.

The joke seems a bit cold.

"Ah...haha." He laughed dryly to relieve his embarrassment.

Xiao Qian'er's face was stern, and Li Bai quickly calmed down and said seriously: "Weren't we not sure before? So we didn't speak first for fear of misunderstanding. Now after taking a closer look, it was indeed them who rescued Zhao Rong.

In this hall, even the way of disappearing is the same."

Zhu Yourong suddenly said: "Do you mean, Fellow Daoist Li, that this hall is the entrance to the location of that mysterious force? Is there a secret mechanism here similar to the ancient teleportation array?"

She frowned and looked at this brand new hall, and had some guesses.

Li Bai thought for a while and nodded, "That's more or less the meaning. I followed the person who led me here, much earlier than Zhao Rong. In fact, I don't know how this kid found this place and used it as a place to fight.

The battlefield... there is a mechanism in this hall, well, it is related to the empty dragon coffin and the small bronze cauldron inside."

He pointed to the dragon coffin behind him, then smiled and said to Zhao Lingfei who was listening carefully:

"Miss, you'd better not reach out and touch it. This thing seems to be quite precious. It's an ancient magic circle. The person who led it also told me the same thing when controlling it. Don't worry, I'm very smart.

On the surface, she is absent-minded, holding the sword indifferently and pretending to be an expert, but in fact, she has already memorized the process of opening the magic circle mechanism, hahaha..."

Li Bai explained half falsely and half truthfully.

Mainly because he wanted Zhao Lingfei to stay away from these alien things and not touch them randomly... For this reason, he even made a humorous joke later on.

Unfortunately.

Zhao Lingfei, Zhao Qian'er, and Zhu Yourong didn't smile.

"..."

You guys are so uncooperative. Damn, if that boy Zhao Rong had said it, you would have been beaming with joy. I know it must be so hateful...

The man holding the sword felt very sad.

Zhao Lingfei said softly: "Uncle Xiaobai."

Li Bai raised his head: "Miss, what's the matter?"

She turned her head and looked at the dragon coffin behind the man that seemed to be a magic circle mechanism:

"Although my mother asked me to practice peace of mind until I was eighteen before she left, and before that, I handed over all the housework and business of the second house to elders like you and Uncle Kun, but..."

Zhao Lingfei lowered her eyes: "I am now seventeen years old and have a family. In fact, you and Uncle Kun can already prepare for me to be eighteen, so that I can gradually adapt... and understand some things about the family business."

Li Bai was startled.

The woman said softly: "For example, when you came to Dali to discuss business this time, you should have discussed it with Concubine Ling before."

Xiao Qian'er didn't interrupt.

"Oh, okay, young lady, I'll talk to Uncle Kun about this when I get back."

Li Bai smiled and nodded, pretending to be stupid and answered.

But at this moment, I felt a breath of cold air in my heart.

He felt that the young lady was becoming more and more difficult to understand. It was fine before she came to Taiqing Fourth Mansion, but now, even the old people like him and Zhao Kun, who have watched her grow up, sometimes feel confused.

I'm not sure what the lady is thinking.

Whether some of her words were intentional or unintentional.

For example, right now, the young lady was obviously talking about family business matters, but Li Bai always felt that she was referring to something else, something else.

He seemed to be really talking about the family business, he seemed to be beating them up, and he seemed to be seriously discussing and communicating with old people like them.
