172 If you don't obey, I'll kill her!(1/2)
The hidden area of the imperial capital, Xunji.
Merchants who are resident in Sunji have sensed strange changes in Sunji these days. The patrols at the spiritual gathering place have become stricter, and more importantly, more and more formally trained spiritual practitioners are coming from all directions.
They were all transferred from Shuling Department's branches in Nanzhou. There were rumors that a large-scale purge campaign was going to be carried out in Nanzhou.
As for the target of the purge, everyone has different opinions, and there are too many rumors interspersed among them.
After nightfall, the Shu Ling Department intensified its patrols on Sunda. Most of the souls who came from all directions did not want to cause trouble, so they stayed and rested peacefully in the inn.
In the inn where the members of the Shuling Division often rested, Qiu Yuerong, who had patrolled twice and took the team members there to have tea and rest, chose a seat and sat down.
The team members who were following him were enjoying a short break after ordering a few late-night snacks.
There are not enough manpower in the Shuling Department, especially the manpower of Killing Feng, so everyone works in two shifts.
Although they didn't know what the point of wandering around like this was, they had to follow the orders from above.
Qiuyue stared into the distance with her chin clenched for a long time. I don’t know why tonight, but the moon in Sunda is very bright.
"There's no need to look for another place, it's fine here." The person who went upstairs said without ceremony and sat down opposite Qiu Yuerong.
Qiu Yuerong stared at Chu Zhou opposite. They had been busy with their own affairs for the past half month. Shafeng and Poling were patrolling in different places.
Moreover, during this period, the number of times that Minister Lin visited Chu Zhou increased significantly. Every time the two met in the conference room, they would stand back and look mysterious.
Qiu Yuerong had no intention of exploring what they were talking about. As a subordinate, she was very conscientious and completed her tasks in strict accordance with the instructions from her superiors.
Others, she doesn't know and doesn't want to know.
"You are just doing useless things by leading people on patrol day and night. You really like to do useless things." Chu Zhou unceremoniously picked up the teapot on the table and poured her a cup.
Tea.
Qiu Yuerong only glanced at him and paid no attention to the person in front of him.
"Minister Xiao promised in front of Director Qin that Hong Zhi will be captured before tomorrow. People from the inspection department have just entered the back mountain one after another. What do you think they did?" Chu Zhou blew the water in the cup.
He took a sip of water.
Qiu Yuerong heard what he meant, and the people from the inspection department went back to the mountain one after another. This must have happened because of the news about Hong Zhi.
"Don't say I didn't remind you, you have been defeated by that person twice. If she ends up in the hands of someone from the Chabu Department, how will others view us chasing the Bubu?"
At that time, the entire pursuit department and the killing style will become a joke in Nanzhou Shuling Department. If Qiu Yuerong wants to make a comeback, this is the last chance.
"How did you know?" Qiu Yuerong stared at the person in front of her.
Chu Zhou was not a kind-hearted person in her heart.
"Po Ling's intelligence network not only targets the outside, but also the inside." Chu Zhou chuckled.
"The choice has been placed before you. Whether you go or not is up to you. Don't blame me for not reminding you."
Qiu Yuerong knew in her heart that this time Director Qin was very dissatisfied with the fact that he was pursuing Yun Zaichun privately but got nothing in the end.
It seems that he is very angry because of Minister Lin's position. If the Pursuit Department loses to the Inspectorate Department in arresting people, it will really make the entire Shu Ling Department and even the entire Nanzhou laugh at the end.
Qiu Yuerong slammed the cup in her hand on the table, and said happily, "I'll go."
This time she must capture that man, otherwise how will her main team, the Killing Wind, convince the public?
Seeing this, Chu Zhou transformed her into a guiding talisman and let it guide her all the way to the south. As Qiu Yuerong got up, the Shafeng team members who were resting in the huge inn also rushed out of the inn with her.
"Home team, when do we set off?" The deputy team on the side stepped forward and asked.
Chu Zhou looked at the Shafeng team members disappearing into the night one after another, and put down the tea cup in his hand.
"Send someone to follow them, and we will set off after confirming that all of Shafeng's people have entered the back mountain."
The deputy leader nodded, gave all his orders, and then turned around in confusion.
It was also the order issued by Minister Lin, but why was Shafeng the only one to hide it?
In the mountains and forests behind Xunji, this is a good place where many spiritual practitioners come to practice. It is a secluded and lush forest.
But it is also a very dangerous place. In addition to being a good place for spiritual practice, it is also a place where sinful spirits hide.
Many criminal spirits who have committed crimes and are hunted down by the Soul Binding Department will choose to hide here. The terrain is steep and vegetation is rare, making it easy to hide.
Therefore, murder cases are often found here, all of which are cases of spirit beings who accidentally entered and were attacked by sinful spirits.
Mu Qian bypassed Sunda and entered. The shadows of trees swayed along the way, and the moonlight illuminated the ground and turned into strange patterns.
Those who are timid will really be frightened.
After taking a few steps, Mu Qian stopped and took out the letter at noon. The line of words on it reunited and turned into a butterfly.
Following the direction of the butterfly's flight, Mu Qian stepped into a bamboo forest from directly behind.
The butterflies turned into sporadic ink dots and fell to the ground, quickly disappearing.
"Come out." Mu Qian stood still with her hands in her trouser pockets.
As her voice fell, the bamboo tips began to shake, and the fluttering bamboo leaves fell. At the same time, four figures fell straight down from mid-air.
Mu Qian looked at Su Xingman who had her mouth taped and couldn't speak, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.
"Sure enough, you are the only one who cares about this woman's life." Mu Lian sneered.
Mu Qian and Su Xingman have been friends for many years. In the past, this woman tried to undermine Mu Qian at school again and again, almost succeeding several times.
The feud between them was completely forgotten. If Yun Yuwei hadn't been hiding in Yun's house this time and she had no chance to take action, she wouldn't have settled for Su Xingman.
"Mo Lian, I really saw you right. You will only do things that are not worthy of publicity." Mu Qian sneered.
In addition to Su Xingman, the people standing next to Mu Lian were Song Xiangli, who looked disdainful, and the little follower who always followed Song Xiangli.
It's not that Mu Qian has a bad memory, but that this person's presence is really not high. She has been in the academy for so long that she doesn't even know his name.
Because every time Luo Zhi described her, he always described her as Song Xiangli's follower.
As a result, Mu Qian was also taken there without knowing it. She remembered that Song Xiangli would sometimes call her Xiaohua, but she had never heard the full name.
"Mu Qian, stop talking nonsense. Su Xingman is in my hands now. If you want her to be safe, just listen to me. Otherwise..."
Mu Lian said and made a gesture. Su Xingman, who had been standing beside them with her mouth covered, suddenly started to turn red, as if she couldn't breathe.
"What do you want?" Mu Qian stared at the person opposite.
Mu Lian released Su Xingman's hand and opened her palms to the person opposite, "Your aura and your kidneys!"
If spiritual cultivators are willing, they can give their spiritual power to others as gifts, which can help others grow in their spiritual cultivation.
It's a matter of mutual consent, and Mu Lian's side request is Mu Qian's kidney, which she has always been thinking about.
Until now, Mu Qian wants to praise her for her perseverance, she is really persistent.
"Yun Muqian, you don't have the chance to choose or the time to think about it. You can only listen to us, otherwise your good friend will be torn into pieces by me!" Song Xiangli said fiercely.
Su Xingman, whose mouth was covered, could not utter a word, but her eyes were fixed on Mu Qian and she began to shake her head crazily.
"You are really her good friend. You are still worried about her even though I have a tight grip on her. I think you would rather die than have Mu Qian get hurt, right?" Mu Lian said and laughed wildly.
.
She finally seized this opportunity and was able to crush Mu Qian under her feet. She must make good use of it.
"Apart from these, what other requirements can I ask?" Mu Qian raised her eyebrows.
Xiaohua who was following beside her swallowed her saliva. They were obviously the ones holding Mu Qian's throat, but why did they feel like Mu Qian was threatening them now.
Three against one, their momentum actually lost.
"I want you to kneel down and apologize!" Song Xiangli suddenly shouted.
Mu Lian, who was following behind, chuckled, "Do you know why she wants you to kneel down and apologize?"
Mu Qian said nothing, and Mu Lian continued her words, "Because her father was killed by your mother Ning Xi. The father's debt must be paid by the son. This is your retribution."
songs
I kowtowed to me three times and called my father’s name very loudly to ask for his forgiveness!”
As she spoke, her eyes turned red, and her hand that controlled Su Xingman continued to exert force.
Su Xingman shook her head crazily at Mu Qian, her voice was completely blocked and only intermittent sounds could be heard.
Mu Qian gave her a reassuring look and said to Song Xiangli, "Continue."
Xiaohua who was listening on the side thought that this person was crazy because he could continue to make demands at this time.
When Mu Lian saw this, she said coldly, "Mu Qian, I'm warning you not to play tricks."
Mu Qian thought for a moment and didn't bother to act like it to them, "Your father was executed for committing a crime. It was the Soul-Sucking Department that executed him, not my mother. You seem to have made a mistake."
Song Xiangli looked at her in astonishment, "You know?"
Before being admitted to the hospital, Mu Qian borrowed a notebook of Ning Xi's from Ning Jingsheng in order to investigate the hidden dangers of the Yun family. The notebook recorded every sinful spirit that Ning Xi had caught after entering the Soul-Storing House.
The details include age, occupation, family background, even what kind of crime he committed, and how he was executed in the end.
Of course Mu Qian could see Song Xiangli's father's name and how he died.
"Your father's death was not innocent. He killed innocent people indiscriminately and practiced evil arts to steal other people's spiritual energy for spiritual cultivation. Are you going to follow your father's path now?"
