Upon hearing this, Feng Jiu was slightly surprised: “Wasn’t she with you?” She paused, then she stood up and asked: “What happened?”
Leng Shuang’s heart sank, and she said: “I went to buy wine with her, but there were too many people at the shop and a woman holding a child bumped into me. I was preoccupied for a bit, and Feifei disappeared in this short period of time.”
Boss Yu, who was beside Feng Jiu, was also slightly startled when he heard this. He hadn’t expected such a thing to happen. He looked at the two of them, then he thought of the woman before and seemed to have thought of something and frowned.
“Miss, did you offend anyone in the city?” A male cultivator asked, looking at Feng Jiu, making a suggestion kindly: “If you have offended someone, hurry up and go and look for them, maybe you will be able to find her.”
“Could she have gone back? Go and look for her again. The young girl might have just gone back after she bought her things!” Another male cultivator also spoke up and asked them to go back to look for her.
Feng Jiu smiled at the two of them and said: “She wouldn’t go back while I’m still here. She must have been kidnapped by someone.”
“If that’s the case, then it is more troublesome. The power structure in this city is complicated, it will be even harder for two young women like you to find someone. Do you have any relatives or good friends in the city? Ask them to help you inquire.” A middle-aged man in luxurious clothing spoke warmly, giving them advice.
“Thank you.” Feng Jiu nodded slightly to express her gratitude. Then, she said to Leng Shuang: “Go back to the inn and let Du Fan know what’s happened and tell him to go out to inquire. Once you have news, come back here to look for me.”
“Yes.” Leng Shuang responded and went downstairs immediately.
Feng Jiu looked at Boss Yu and said: “Boss Yu, pack those medicinal herbs up for me and settle the bill!”
“Yes Miss. Come this way with me.” When he saw that she didn’t seem very worried, Boss Yu was a little surprised. He asked her to follow him to the counter on the second floor then asked the shopkeeper to take the spirit herbs out for her to check. After both parties had settled the bill, he couldn’t help but ask: “Miss, why do you not seem very worried?”
Feng Jiu smiled slightly and said: “No, I am worried deep down, after all, she is only a young girl and she is not very experienced out in the world. I’m actually very worried that she has caused some trouble.”
Upon hearing this, Boss Yu paused and asked: “Does Miss have any relatives or good friends in the city?”
“No, we are just passing by. We planned to rest here for one night and then leave.” Feng Jiu replied. After she had checked the spirit herbs, she put them away.
After listening to Feng Jiu’s words, Boss Yu sighed and shook his head: “The forces in this city are complicated, and you don’t have any family or good friends here. It will probably be difficult for you to find the girl.”
Feng Jiu smiled slightly, but didn’t say anything. After she put away the spirit herbs, she said: “I plan to wait here for my people. Boss Yu won’t mind if I have another cup of tea, would you?”
“Of course, Miss. Please take a seat here.” Boss Yu said with a smile then instructed someone to serve her another cup of tea.
The people who were buying spirit herbs on the second floor hadn’t left yet. When they saw her sitting there drinking tea without any anxiety, they couldn’t help but feel surprised. But they also didn’t dare to ask too much.
On the other side, Du Fan, who was eating and drinking, put down his chopsticks and picked up his cup of wine to take another sip. He wondered why his Master and the others still hadn’t returned.
When he looked out towards the street, he saw Leng Shuang walking over hurriedly. Upon seeing this, he frowned, stood up and walked out.
