Chapter 120: Kidnapped?
Chapter 120: Kidnapped?
The tavern was instantly in a state of chaos.
Several people were so busy that they didn't even have a chance to drink a sip of water.
Ji Jiuying waved her hand, signaling Qingling to play a song.
That’s right, it was Qing Ling who was on the stage. The sound of the piano she played just now also had a healing sound. Ji Jiuying just wanted to see how well she had practiced the Sound of the Fantasy Sea.
It looks really good.
Qing Ling was a little timid at first, but now after listening to the song, she is not so scared anymore.
After receiving Ji Jiuying's signal, Qing Ling began to play another song.
Qingling took a breath and lightly played the strings of the zither with her jade fingers. Compared to the previous song, this one was much softer.
The sound of the piano becomes softer and more alluring, and the slow sound is like a butterfly spreading its wings and about to fly, flapping its nimble wings... The sound like flowing water under a bridge is fascinating, as if you have entered a dreamlike trap and are unconsciously intoxicated in it.
This music does not belong to the human world. After the song is over, the sound of the piano still echoes, and everyone is still not satisfied.
"The second prince has arrived!"
There was a notification voice outside the door.
When the onlookers heard this, they all made way for him.
"Hmph~ Even the Second Prince can't cut in line, right?" said a middle-aged man.
"Don't get me wrong, don't get me wrong! I'm the boss's friend, I'm just here to congratulate and give him a gift."
After hearing this, everyone realized that the two guards behind them were carrying a large box.
Ji Jiuying also noticed Jun Lintian at the door and hurried over to greet him, "Second Prince, why are you here too?"
“Hmph~ What else did you say? You didn’t even inform me in advance of such a big event as the opening of the business. If mother hadn’t told me, I would still be kept in the dark!” Jun Lintian pretended to be angry and snorted coldly.
Ji Jiuying narrowed her eyes slightly. She had never mentioned this to the Queen!
"It's just a small winery, and we don't want to trouble everyone to mobilize a large force."
"Okay, okay, you have the final say." Jun Lintian waved his hand to signal the guards behind him to carry the box in.
"What is this?" Ji Jiuying asked.
Jun Lintian opened the lid, revealing a whole box of colored glass cups.
Colored glazed cups are very expensive, and usually only royal descendants and nobles would use them. Unexpectedly, the Second Prince bought a whole box of them. Does this mean that Sanqianzui can use colored glazed cups when drinking in the future?
Everyone came closer to take a look. This Second Prince was so generous, worthy of being a member of the palace.
"This is what your mother asked me to bring to you." Jun Lintian leaned close to Ji Jiuying's ear and whispered.
Ji Jiuying nodded, she had guessed it too.
"Pack a few bottles of the fine wine you bought for this prince, and I will forgive you this time."
"Of course no problem. By the way, I'll bring some for the Queen as a return gift to thank her for the glass cup." Ji Jiuying said with a smile.
Jun Lintian then nodded with satisfaction.
There were so many people in the bar that some people got tired of waiting and just bought some wine to take away.
Qingling and Wen Longxiu were so busy at the counter working the cashier and counting the bills that they were too busy. Seeing this, Jun Lintian volunteered to help. With Jun Lintian's help, Qingling and Wen Longxiu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Wen Longting was packing the food, Fatty and Daniu were in charge of getting the wine, and Yingyue was in charge of watching over the place at the door.
Qiuyue, Shuanghua and Yaya are responsible for cleaning and putting away the guests' empty wine bottles.
The three of them never imagined that their first day working in the princess's mansion would be to help out in the princess's tavern.
At this time, there was a commotion in the tavern.
"Uh! Am I going to advance?" A man was shocked for a moment, then a hint of joy flashed across his eyes. He had been stuck at the bottleneck for more than two months and refused to advance no matter what.
I drank a few bottles of wine with the mentality of giving it a try, and I didn't expect that after drinking this spiritual fruit wine, I could really advance.
Upon seeing this, Ji Jiuying asked Daniu to take the man away from the crowd and let him advance in the attic.
The attic is designed to be transparent so that it is convenient for people to advance. This way everyone can see it without disturbing the people who have advanced.
The man sat cross-legged on the couch, using his spiritual power to slowly refine the spiritual energy in his body and convert it into spiritual power.
Everyone widened their eyes and gasped.
"Although this wine can help the body gather spiritual energy automatically, it can't upgrade so quickly, right?"
Could this person be a shill?
"Oh, you don't know this, right? The guy in the attic is from my hometown. He's been stuck in the bottleneck for more than two months."
So, drinking this wine normally can make people feel refreshed and gather spiritual energy, and drinking it when they reach the bottleneck period can help them advance quickly?
Everyone immediately had other ideas in their minds.
At this moment, another man in the crowd advanced, and three or four more appeared one after another...
Everyone was amazed and had to believe that this wine really had this effect.
After most of the day, several people were starving, but the tavern was still bustling.
Ji Jiuying entered the warehouse in the back hall and placed all the spiritual fruit wines in the space on the ground.
At this moment, there was a wave in the air, and a big hand picked up Ji Jiuying and disappeared on the spot.
"what--"
Ji Jiuying was so frightened that she screamed.
Yingyue and Feihu came to the warehouse at the same time, but Ji Jiuying was no longer there. They looked at each other in shock.
Wen Longxiu and others also noticed something and put down their work and went to the warehouse in the back hall.
"Where's Xiaojiu?"
"Where is Miss?"
"He was kidnapped!" Feihu replied.
Several people looked at Feihu warily. They didn't recognize this man who appeared out of nowhere until Qingling came out to explain that he was Jiu Xiaojiu's secret guard.
"Who could have kidnapped the young lady?" Several people were worried.
At this time, Yingyue discovered a familiar smell in the air? Could it be the master?
But according to his understanding, in a situation like this, the master would definitely not kidnap the mistress for no reason, so there was only one possibility, that is, something went wrong!
If he is really the owner, he will definitely leave some clues.
Yingyue lowered his head and looked around, and several people looked at him in confusion. Finally, he found the signal left by the owner on a pot of wine.
Yingyue breathed a sigh of relief, "Let's all go back to work. The master took her away. I guess there must be something urgent to deal with. Don't worry."
The few people then breathed a sigh of relief. They were so scared. Since it was the Imperial Master who took Xiaojiu away, there was really nothing to worry about.
Ji Jiuying and Gong Mingyue flashed and appeared on the back of the Fire Kirin in the air.
Ji Jiuying was about to take out Hei Ye when she smelled a familiar scent. Ji Jiuying almost yelled, "Gong Mingyue, you really scared me to death!"
She had no time to react to what happened just now. I guess A Xiu and the others must be worried to death now!
"Xiao Jiuer, this is an emergency. I need you to save someone. Don't worry, I left a signal for Yingyue." Gong Mingyue said directly.
Only then did Ji Jiuying notice the cold aura emanating from him.
"Poisoned? Or injured?"
"All!"
