Now, similar beetles have also appeared in Yongquan Villa, which means——
"We were also targeted by him."
"I've checked, and these bugs are all monsters. It's absolutely true." He stretched out his hand, and the bat monster flew down and stopped on the back of his hand. "This guy said that there were many beetles that flew near me more than an hour ago."
All the cave dwellers were caught and beaten to death by it."
"How much exactly?"
Dong Rui glared at him: "Do you think my bat can count?"
"Okay, I was wrong."
"It ate several in a row. When it was full, only these two were left to play." But the monkey saw it and wanted to play too. No, it also wanted to eat.
He Lingchuan's face was as dark as water: "Either this demon puppet master let them out to survey the terrain of Yongquan Villa, or these beetles are here to find you."
"Why are you looking for me?" Dong Rui didn't feel the joy of meeting a colleague in a foreign country at all, "Am I provoking him?"
"You don't know what you have in mind?" He Lingchuan glanced at him sideways, "Tiger, Ratwoman, Porcupine, and Xiao An?"
This guy opened his eyes and told lies, and he said it so confidently.
"Hey, hey, hey, hey!" Dong Rui waved his hands repeatedly, "His demon puppet was taken away by the Black Armored Army. What does it have to do with me?"
"The appearance of his insect puppet here means that he is suspicious of us." He Lingchuan pondered, "Where did we reveal our flaws? Or, what accident happened when you placed Xiao An?"
This problem is not ordinary serious!
The puppet master sent these bugs and rushed towards Dong Rui's laboratory, which shows that he suspected "Wei Yishan".
Dong Rui shook his head and said: "There is a more reasonable explanation."
"Um?"
"It's the same reason why he killed Situ Yu in the first place - maybe someone asked him to kill you." Dong Rui spread his hands, "He doesn't have any personal grudge against Situ Yu, right?"
Well, that makes sense.
He Lingchuan asked him: "Look, who would ask him to pay for his murder?"
"Do you still need to say it?" Dong Rui slapped the table, "Read that name out loud!"
He Lingchuan didn't have time to play around with him, so he just said: "When did these beetles lurk in?"
Dong Rui immediately said: "The latest was more than an hour ago."
"How do you know they didn't enter the villa long ago?"
"This kind of insect puppet is not easy to make, and it is not very obedient. If the operator is not around, they will fly away quickly." What kind of intelligence do insects have? If no one cares about them, they will fly around. "And ours
The area of the villa is too large, and it is probably beyond the control range of these demon puppet masters."
This is a practical difficulty that Dong Rui, who is also a demon puppet master, only notices.
He Lingchuan bought such a large manor just to create difficulties for his enemies in reconnaissance and operations.
Dong Rui paused and then said: "My bat is the nemesis of this kind of insect puppet. There are very few creatures that will keep approaching their natural enemies."
Therefore, these beetles are also driven and cannot help themselves.
"So, if they want to use insect puppets to spy on the villa, they have to come in person?" He Lingchuan's eyes narrowed, "An hour and a half ago?"
An hour and a half ago, didn't there happen to be a new guest in the villa?
He is also an odd customer who brings Xuan Jing but doesn’t really want to sell it.
Dong Rui said bitterly: "No wonder the man surnamed Tian behaves strangely and has an unknown purpose. It turns out that selling Xuanjing is fake, but investigating the villa is real!"
Having said this, He Lingchuan immediately ordered his subordinates to send a message to Wan Qiliang, telling him to keep an eye on Tian Yun.
At the same time, he also mobilized all the people in the villa to search for red-threaded beetles in the mountain forests, one by one.
There is strength in numbers.
Dong Rui even ordered his servants to take out a sack of hazelnuts and use the magical power of "spreading beans to form an army".
I learned this skill from Fu Liushan. Although it is not as skillful as Master Fu Tianshi, and the hazelnut soldiers he conjured are not as spiritual, the most basic function is still there, which is to search for beetles with red lines on their abdomens in a large area.
Yongquan Villa is a large place with many trees and grass. Even if He Lingchuan sent out more than a thousand people to search for bugs, the success rate would be shockingly low.
"By the way, where has this person named Tian stayed?" Dong Rui reminded He Lingchuan, "Even if it's just for a few minutes, think about it carefully and don't miss anyone!"
"Xingtai, Tianquan, and Yuhua Hall where we eat." He Lingchuan just finished saying this, and quickly added with the telescope in his arms, "Hey, on the way to Tianquan, Tian Yun ran out to release water on the way, do you remember?
"
"Yes, Tian Yun also went to Baihuagang to relieve himself."
"Let's go and walk around one by one." Dong Rui looked solemn, "His purpose must be more than just looking at you and me."
He Lingchuan led him to Xingtai and pointed to the large pit that had not been filled in yet: "We were standing at the edge of the pit just now."
The ground was covered with freshly turned mud, and the woods were about ten feet away. Dong Rui shook his head repeatedly: "Not here!"
They walked around Xingtai and found nothing unusual.
Then go to Baihuagang.
Tian Yun followed He Lingchuan to the sweet spring to fetch water, and slipped away to Songgang to relieve himself on the way.
Whoever relieves himself will not be watched by others, so he is free at that moment.
This is a small hill with dense trees. Even though it is winter, the yellow weeds on the ground still make it impossible to get down.
How much mess can there be in a forest? It's hard for ordinary people to imagine.
He Lingchuan asked: "What should we look for?"
"Let's start with the screening of insects." Dong Rui has already calculated, "This opponent is good at controlling insect puppets, so all the insects, eggs, and any abnormal things on Baihua Hill, whether on the trees or underground, are all
Find them all!"
This task is indeed a bit difficult for others. Fortunately, Dong Rui once again used the magic power of spreading beans to form soldiers to release the little hazelnuts. These thumb-sized little things ran all over the pine hills, turning over rocks, digging up tree roots, and looking at the turf.
Wan Qifeng wanted to bring a whole team in, but Dong Rui waved his hand: "No more than ten, no more, don't trample on the clues."
He made a gesture, and both the ghost ape and the bat entered Baihua Hill and began searching carefully.
"In this season, all the leaves of the birches have fallen off, and insects will not lay eggs on the bare branches, and neither will Tian Yun, otherwise it would be too obvious; besides, the weather is very cold, with frost in the morning and evening, Tian Yun's
The means must be hidden somewhere." He Lingchuan analyzed, "So, only check below the trunk."
When everyone heard this, they all breathed a sigh of relief. This birch forest has thousands of needles and branches, so it’s great not to have to check the branches!
"Everything here has been arranged. Let's go after Tian Yun." He Lingchuan said seriously, "Even if he is not the mastermind, he still has something to do with it."
At this time, the sound of horse hooves was rapid, and a horse flew up.
Wan Qiliang is here.
Before the horse could stop, he turned over and got down to the ground, saying in a deep voice: "Lord! All good things are useless!"
He Lingchuan frowned: "Lost?"
"Yes." Wan Qiliang and several of his men couldn't raise their heads.
"Tell me about it."
"Tian Yun returned to the south of Tianshui City in a carriage. I watched him walk into the upper room of Yixin Inn."
He Lingchuan interrupted him: "Is there anyone else in the room?"
"I can't say for sure, he asked for bath water as soon as he entered, and then closed the door and window." Wan Qiliang didn't have time to take a closer look, "We waited at the exit for two cups of tea. The longer we waited, the worse it became, so we asked for it.
I knocked on the door in the name of a meal, but no one answered. Then I rushed in. The guest room was empty, there was no one around, and apricot wine was placed in the corner!"
"He knew he would be followed, so he chose an inn to get rid of you." He Lingchuan said to Wan Qiliang, "You are still smarter when you are old."
He then asked: "So, even the compass could not catch him?"
He usually acts with a backup plan.
The small-denomination bank note traded to Tian Yun was stained with the juice of the bee pupae; he could throw away other things, but he had to take the money with him, right?
So He Lingchuan also gave the tracing compass to Wan Qiliang, just in case.
As a result, "just in case" did come, and there was no way to guard against it.
Wan Qiliang took out the compass and presented it with both hands. He Lingchuan and Dong Rui took a look and found that the pointer on the compass was still.
"Where is this money?"
"Yihe Bank." Wan Qiliang whispered, "Yixin Inn is next to Yihe Bank. My subordinates concluded that after Tian slipped out of the inn, he deposited the banknotes into the bank and left. Maybe,
Maybe his accomplices have been waiting inside the bank for a long time."
In this case, Tian Yun handed over the money to his accomplices, and then he could leave.
The development of commerce and trade in Yao Country is second to none in the Golden Gold Plains. The banks here provide deposit and exchange services for merchants. People usually don't like to take huge sums of money with them when traveling far away, so they can deposit their money in chain banks and wait until they get there.
Go to withdraw money.
For example, He Lingchuan went to Yihe Bank to deposit a 100,000 tael in silver notes, took the receipt, and then went to Yihe Bank in Mangzhou to withdraw the money.
Of course, if the amount is too large, you may have to wait a few days.
But saving money is quick.
This method can effectively avoid tracking spells, because Tian Yun will not get this banknote when withdrawing money from another place.
He didn't know that He Lingchuan used bee pupa juice, but the tracking powers in this world are all kinds of weird, but the principles are the same. They will definitely leave some marks on themselves and the objects they get.
Then, as long as Tian Yun erases all traces of his contact with He Lingchuan, such as banknotes, apricot wine, the clothes he wore to Yongquan Villa, etc., the possibility of being traced will be greatly reduced.
Dong Rui murmured: "What a good guy, you are so cautious!"
Wan Qiliang gritted his teeth and pulled out the dagger: "I will never make this kind of mistake again, otherwise I will point out this way!"
After saying that, you have to cut off the little finger of your left hand!
But the next second, he felt a light touch in his hand, and the dagger disappeared.
After looking closely, the dagger was in He Lingchuan's hand, and he was gently and skillfully holding it in a dagger.
"You are my personal guard, and you should only obey me. I didn't nod, how dare you harm yourself?"
Wan Qiliang said loudly: "Liang is confused and makes no progress at all. Please be punished!"
"We have important things to do in a few days. Don't let yourself go and cause trouble at this time!" He Lingchuan threw the dagger back to him. This guy was as stubborn as a cow. He only listened to He Lingchuan's words and sometimes even tens of thousands of dollars were lost.
Qi Feng couldn't even say anything to him, "Mark him a demerit and punish him later."
