Wu Jinsong was shocked, "You..." But He Lingchuan was sitting here, so he should be fine, "Are you not injured?"
"The officials were alerted and they ran away."
"I want to go back and report." Wu Jinsong stood up and said, "The government office is drafting a wanted order and it will be posted soon. Can you come with me and give the painter a description of the murderer who killed the messenger?"
"How much can the bounty be?"
"In this kind of emergency diplomatic incident, if the murderer is caught, the reward will be at least a hundred taels." Wu Jinsong could only give a rough estimate, "If it is a report, there will probably be a reward of twenty taels."
Twenty taels of gold is equivalent to two hundred taels of silver. As expected of Fufeng City, even the tip-off is rewarded so much, Hao.
He Lingchuan stretched out his chopsticks towards him: "Twenty gold coins."
"You..." Wu Jinsong was delighted, "Do you know their whereabouts?"
"They don't know that I witnessed it at the scene. At most, they are just guessing."
He would kill someone just based on guesswork, and would rather kill someone wrong than let it go. That young man in black is also really fierce.
"Since they care about me so much, how can I live up to their good intentions?" He Lingchuan laughed, "So, I also followed them quietly until they stayed at the Xiliao Inn, which is behind the temple in the south of the city."
Of course, what he meant by "stalking" was eyeball spiders.
Wu Jinsong gave a high-five: "Well done!"
He felt around on his body for a while: "The twenty taels of gold will be recorded first, and I will get it for you later! Let's go, come with me."
He Lingchuan smiled and drank the glass of wine and followed him out.
How to take revenge with one's own hands rather than kill someone with a borrowed knife? This is Fufeng City, under the feet of King Baoshu, where the official power is the strongest.
He called up the eyeball spider's field of vision again and found that the man the little spider was clinging to had returned to Fushan, and the group was discussing behind closed doors.
Unfortunately, this man was probably of too low a level and was only sent to guard the door outside. The Eyeball Spider wanted to sneak into the house and eavesdrop, but the doors and windows had barriers, and it would be bounced away as soon as it got close.
Fortunately, it is small in size and light in weight, otherwise the barrier would have set off an alarm.
He Lingchuan shook his head. After all, he was not Zhu Erniang himself. He couldn't remotely control the eyeball spider, which was really a big shortcoming.
In Fu Feng City at night, there seems to be an undercurrent surging.
￥￥￥￥￥
The discussion between the young man in black and his subordinates is coming to an end.
There was no way, the mission objectives were still alive and well, and they were pressed for time, so they had to improvise a new plan.
The two men patrolling the porch were bored. One of them yawned, and the other was infected and subconsciously opened his mouth.
Then an arrow was nailed into the mouth and passed through the skull!
The other man was startled and screamed loudly. But before he could shout, a monster jumped out from under the eaves, like a bat and a bird, with its wings spread out and covering his head and face.
His cry changed to "Uh-huh" twice, and almost no one heard it.
This thing seemed to have an anesthetic effect. The man was so anxious that he couldn't hold his breath. He suddenly felt dizzy and passed out before he could even pull the thing off his face.
This thing jumps away on its own, revealing its true face:
A flying squirrel.
It can tear open the skin under its ribs and glide. Its size is four times the size of its normal kind, and its appearance is not that harmless.
Immediately, dozens of officers and soldiers rushed towards the guest room, surrounded the guest room, and unceremoniously slashed the doors and windows with swords and guns. The store owner had already informed that this group was the only one staying at the same time, occupying a row of three rooms.
Everyone was ready to fight the enemy, but the room was quiet, no one yelled, no one jumped out.
The house is empty.
"There is a formation on the wall!"
Bingwei looked up and found a formation painted on the gray wall, with complicated lines and a strange symbol in the middle.
"This is……?"
A deputy came from behind. He entered the room and saw the formation on the wall. He didn't have time to think about it before he issued an order: "Search, search all around!"
Before he finished speaking, he felt his feet go soft, as if he had stepped on something.
There was a loud "boom", the house was blown apart, the rafters flew five feet away, and the door of the neighboring shop was knocked down with a "bang".
Black smoke curled up.
Such an accident suddenly occurred in the busy city, causing screams and screams all around.
…
The young man in black and others were in a residential house a dozen feet away, looking up at the black smoke rising into the sky.
Behind him was a big man, who was originally full of energy and blood, but now his face was pale and shaky, and even his hair had turned several white.
This man had just sacrificed himself for five years, and then reluctantly activated the Great Moving Mountain Formation to teleport everyone here.
It is not a wise move to fight head-on with the officers and soldiers in Fufeng City. The opponents are numerous and have endless backup, which can cost lives.
Seeing the young man staring straight at the black smoke, seemingly in a trance, his subordinates couldn't help but remind him: "Master, it's time for us to leave. This is not a place to stay for a long time."
Fufeng officers and soldiers will search here soon.
The young man in black had a fierce look in his eyes.
Fortunately, he was cautious and would always have some back-ups whenever he arrived at a new residence. Fortunately, he had a keen sense of spiritual awareness to detect abnormalities, otherwise it would have taken a lot of effort to break out of the encirclement of officers and soldiers.
It can be seen from here that their residence is surrounded by three floors inside and outside.
The government office dispatched at least three to four hundred people, and they were respected in terms of numbers.
"Master?"
"Fufeng City should have received news of the death of the Yinshan Python. But if that person hadn't reported it, the authorities wouldn't have found us." He narrowed his eyes, "Okay, great!"
That kid really does one thing on the surface but another behind the scenes.
He turned around and stared at the crowd. The latter felt a chill all over their bodies, as if they were being spied on, but this feeling lasted only a moment and soon returned to normal.
In fact, the young man in black expanded his mind and scanned everyone.
"Take off your clothes and put on a new one immediately."
it's here?
Fortunately, everyone is well-trained, they just execute without asking questions, and quickly replace the old with the new.
"Previously, tracking spells or powder were probably placed on us, otherwise it would be impossible for the officers and soldiers to locate accurately." The young man in black found no abnormalities with his spiritual thoughts, and he was surprised.
He Lingchuan showed his ability to be cautious. The first time was when they killed the Yinshan Python, the second time was the night attack on the inn, and now it was the third time.
It didn't take long for this person to do something to them.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! He did not know that the eyeball spider was originally attached to the minions outside the guest room door and did not come with them.
"Advance the retreat plan and spread out in groups." The young man in black said quickly, "There are so many of us, we are too conspicuous."
"Are we going to retreat and leave?"
The young man in black seemed to have heard a big joke, and he picked his ears: "You say it again?"
The subordinates were silent.
He grinned, but the smile was not in his eyes: "The goal remains the same, things must be snatched, and people... must be killed!"
…
The next morning, the sun still rose from the east.
He Lingchuan stretched and stood up refreshed.
After opening up the second Dantian, not only does his real power move faster, but he also has more energy. In this way, he can feel energetic after just sleeping for an hour.
In the past, he would have been afraid of having dark circles under his eyes if he didn't sleep for two hours.
The black cat also jumped in from the window sill, stretched in the downward dog position, and scratched at the wooden window, leaving white marks.
"Hey, don't scratch. I'll have to pay for the damage to the doors and windows." He hired the black cat to help and paid according to the number of times. There was no work for it today, but the cat came again on its own.
The little kitten didn't know where to go to play. The big cat came over and nuzzled He Lingchuan before asking him: "Can you give me a ride when you go to Baiyun Mountain? I also want to go to the ceremony, but it's too far to walk by myself."
It has short legs.
He Lingchuan is incompetent.
At this time, someone knocked on the door, and Master Shi Er came.
He changed into new clothes and said happily: "It's time for us to go up the mountain to watch the ceremony!"
"Aren't you busy with business today?" King Baoshu's birthday is also a carnival for businessmen. Business travelers from inside and outside Bejia took the opportunity to bring rare treasures, flowers and plants to Fufeng City, and auctions of various sizes were held.
According to official statistics, there are nearly a hundred auctions every day, and treasure dealers have also made a lot of attention this time.
"Everything that needs to be sold has been sold." They mainly do wholesale business. "I heard that the official road to Lingxu City has been cleared, and the official has strengthened the patrol force. Therefore, we will hit the road directly after the ceremony today!
It’s safer when there are more people.”
The sudden outbreak of Emperor's Liquid Serum disrupted their travel plan, and they had already been delayed for a long time in Fufeng City. The celebration was over today, and they had to leave as soon as possible.
"By the way, this is the book you want." Master Shi Er handed a brochure to He Lingchuan, "Sure enough, it is available in Fufeng City. My guy found it after searching two bookstores. It is said that it is placed in a very conspicuous position.
"
"Hardcover copy?" He Lingchuan took it and flipped through it, dust was flying, "Ahem, there's so much dust!"
Master Shi Er was a little confused, "Brother He, what do you want this for? I don't think anyone usually buys it. That bookstore only buys two books in total, and they are all left to eat dust on the high shelf. It is said that this book is sold every twenty or thirty years
It was copied every year to prevent it from being lost. But as for whether anyone will read it, I don’t think so.”
"It can't be said, Shanren has its own magical uses." He Lingchuan patted the cover of the book and shook out a piece of book powder, "This book is not meant for reading, but it is so thin? It's great!"
"Tch." Master Shi Er rolled his eyes and urged him to get on his way quickly.
He Lingchuan didn't have anything to pack, so the two of them took their horses and went out. The black cat jumped on He Lingchuan's blue sheep, preparing to take a free ride.
This blue sheep carried him back from Sanxin Lake. It ran steadily and fast, and its patience was extremely good. No wonder someone adopted it as a mount.
Compared with horses and barges, the blue sheep's jumping ability is outstanding. It can jump more than ten feet high at any time. It is light and fast, especially suitable for traveling in mountains. He Lingchuan simply left it behind.
Of course, its weight-bearing capacity is average. If it weighs more than 500 kilograms, its legs will become weak.
As soon as the sun sets, the streets are bustling with people, mostly heading north.
In this case, there is no need to ride a horse. You can only lead the horse and follow the crowd.
As for the carriage/donkey cart, it is impossible to move at all.
Passing by two temples, He Lingchuan saw that the stage set up in front of the temple had already begun a performance. The silk and bamboo on the stage were squeaking, and the people in the audience were smiling. The children were chasing the vendors selling sugar skewers. It was really more lively than the Chinese New Year.
