Chapter five hundred and fifty-ninth investigation one
After leaving the Demon Palace, Lu Sheng inspected the surrounding environment again. At his current speed, it only took him a stick of incense to inspect Qiuyue County, and it only took half a day to determine the threat of evil spirits in the entire Jiu Ming Prefecture.
Under the induction of the soul, one can be thousands of miles away in an instant. Evil spirits are like fireflies in the dark night. They do not require precise and detailed induction. Only rough and fuzzy perception can determine their location and quantity.
After scanning the entire Jiu Ming Prefecture, Lu Sheng still had no specific idea about the strength of the War Lord. After searching for a long time without success, he decided to go to Yin Capital in person.
Yindu is the most important place among the three sects and clans. In addition to the two military leaders who live here, the headquarters of the other three clans and the three sects are also located near Yindu.
Lu Sheng's purpose was to go to the Yuanguang family and other wealthy families to obtain detailed information on the military leader level.
Qiuyue County in Jiu Ming Prefecture is more than 900,000 miles away from Yin Capital, but Lu Sheng was driving at full speed, and it only took him one day to reach the border accurately.
Yindu Mingzhao’s defense circle and Congshan’s defense line.
The towering and continuous city walls, like long black snakes, span the undulating mountains.
The city wall is black, covered with ferocious spikes, and golden symbols shine at every interval. Groups of patrolling monks fly past in the sky from time to time.
Below the city wall, at the gate of the county city, two teams of tall guards, fully armed, wearing black armor and holding sharp spears, were eyeing the passers-by with extreme vigilance.
Groups of caravans, horse-drawn carriages, and ox-carts, as well as porters and farmers on their way, came in and out of the city gate in an endless stream.
"Stop! Where are you coming from?" A group of guards stopped several ox carts, and the leader of the team asked sternly, his sharp eyes quickly scanning the driver of the ox cart in front of him.
The driver of the oxcart was a young man in his prime, wearing a patched yellow and black cloth coat. His face was dull, with a Chinese character, and his eyes were not very alert.
"Back to Master Jun, we are coming from the direction of Duanshan County. We have checked many times along the way."
"Where is the road guide?" The guard stretched out his hand and shook it.
The man quickly took Lu Yin out of his arms and took out a piece of light yellow paper, unfolded it and handed it to the guard.
At the back of the motorcade, Lu Sheng was wrapped in a black robe and walked at the end with calm eyes. Unlike the driver of the motorcade, when he passed the city gate, the Qianyang Sect logo embroidered on his robe made several guards look respectful.
, and let him in without saying anything.
Passing through the city gate, behind is a flat green field with surging wheat waves.
Winter has passed, the evil spirit disaster has also passed, and the surviving civilians have begun sowing and farming again.
Lu Sheng didn't mean to disturb the local forces. If he came this time and applied for information about the soldier master normally, he would definitely not be able to get it, unless he was willing to show off his strength as a soldier master, but this would be too shocking.
You must know that it only took thirty years from his rise to the present. In thirty years, he has made a breakthrough from an ordinary person to the level of a military leader. It is inevitable that there will be no one before or after him, and it is very likely that he will even shock the powerful in the painful world.
Sleep survey.
Therefore, Lu Sheng planned to never completely reveal his strength unless absolutely necessary.
In this search for information, it is best to use a covert method.
At the speed of a normal person, Lu Sheng passed through large fields and farmland, observing with the naked eye the most prosperous and powerful capital city in Great Yin.
Across the fields, in front of you is the second defensive network composed of a ring of towers.
The gray-white city towers look like tall towers, with some kind of wing-like gray light slowly floating around them, which obviously has some unknown function.
When passing by this place, Lu Sheng's soul tried to scan the city towers, but found that these buildings had the effect of isolating the soul from scanning.
Moo!!
In the large wasteland on the right side of the road, there was a wide area built like a horse farm. When Lu Sheng passed by, there were many human and monster races struggling to pull a huge one-eyed black bull that was more than five meters high.
Rune chains with cursed seals kept trying to wrap around the black bull, but they were immediately broken free and slid away.
Lu Sheng paused for a moment and took a few glances.
"It's another black-eyed cow. Why are the people from the Jing family so crazy about buying such beasts recently?" There were many people like Lu Sheng on the roadside who stopped to watch.
Someone was communicating in a low voice, and although the sound was transmitted through the air, to Lu Sheng's extremely powerful perceptive soul, the sound transmission at this distance was almost the same as a loudspeaker shouting in his ear.
"I heard that there was a blood sacrifice. Last time, the external directors of the Jing family bought thousands of kilograms of black fruits. Regardless of good or bad, several large orchards outside the city made a lot of money."
"Are they still trying to hack Chen Guo now? I'll go get some more later."
“I want something else now.”
Lu Sheng glanced at the black-eyed cow. He had never seen this kind of creature before. Judging from the pure brute force, it was about four lines and five lines. It was very powerful for ordinary people.
After a slight pause, he continued to move forward, speeding up. Before the sun went down, he finally entered the main city of Yindu.
The entire Yindu seems to have been carved with regular knives and rulers, with precise measurements.
Each residential house is no more than ten meters high, each tall tower is absolutely the same style, and each attic has a standard square roof without any tricks.
Lu Sheng joined the huge flow of people and walked into the market in front of Yindu. He passed through a gray and white archway, and on both sides were shops selling cultural relics, antiques and tomb items.
There is no trace of fear caused by the unrest caused by evil spirits on the faces of the people here, as if everything is still in a peaceful period.
Among the noisy voices, they were either discussing the delicious food of the recently opened restaurant, or chatting about the strange rumors circulating in the public. Or the ladies from some brothels were going to have a flower market dance or something.
For a moment, Lu Sheng seemed to have returned to the real earth period in ancient China. If he hadn't seen some strange monsters passing by from time to time, maybe he really thought he had returned to the earth and traveled through time and space.
Bang.
Suddenly, a petite body bumped into Lu Sheng's right shoulder.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it!" A girl with a graceful appearance apologized in panic.
The girl is wearing a pure light green dress, and the gray-black ribbon cinching her waist delicately outlines her voluptuous waist. Her long black hair is spread over her shoulders, her lips are rosy, and her skin is white. She looks like she belongs to a high-class family.
The eldest lady.
"It doesn't matter, just be more careful next time." Lu Sheng nodded slightly.
The girl smiled sheepishly, bowed slightly to Lu Sheng, and walked quickly past.
She took small steps along the street and quickly ran into a small alley. There were already three young women in gray clothes with a bee embroidered on their backs waiting. Two of them were holding cigarettes and taking big gulps.
Clouds blow out mist.
"How are you doing?" A woman standing near the entrance of the alley asked in a low voice. She took a deep breath from the cigarette in her hand, threw it on the ground and stamped it out.
"What else can I do? I'm going to take action, is there any chance of success?" The girl in the green dress raised her head slightly and said with a smile, "I got it. That guy is from outside. When he comes to the city, he looks like a country bumpkin everywhere. And he's dressed up too.
It’s not like a person who is short of money, but his knowledge is a little bit off, and he is casually seduced by my wife, and he doesn’t know where to throw it.
Today my first time will be given to him."
She pulled out a small black money bag from her bulging breasts.
He grabbed the money bag and shook it gently, and suddenly there was a crunching sound inside.
"Sounds like a lot."
"Open it and take a look. This is our third order today. I didn't expect to encounter such a fat sheep."
"I guess seven or eight hundred!"
A proud smile appeared on the corner of Xiu'er's mouth, she hooked the purse with her slender hands, shook it gently, and immediately pulled the bag's tether.
Inside are brilliant golden leaves.
"Big harvest!" Xiu'er's pretty face was startled, then she was overjoyed.
"Little guy, money is very important to you?" Suddenly a deep and rich voice came from behind her.
Xiu'er's pretty face suddenly froze, and before the smile on her face could spread, she saw that the good sisters in front of her all froze, their faces slowly turning pale, and thin beads of sweat began to appear on their foreheads and temples.
beads.
Lu Sheng stood at the entrance of the alley, watching the girls in front of him quietly. An inexplicable huge pressure was pressing on the girls present.
Especially that Xiu'er from before, she felt her heartbeat speed up instantly and she broke out in cold sweat.
Lu Sheng cared about her very much. When he arrived in Yindu, he encountered a surprise. A little girl could approach and bump into his body without him noticing, and even stole his money.
bag.
This was not intentional on his part, but the money bag was really stolen.
The other party did not rely on any tactics, but some kind of special power, a wonderful power that seemed to be invisible to the enemy.
"It is indeed the capital of Yin, with hidden dragons and crouching tigers. I never thought that someone could steal things from me." Lu Sheng stared at Xiu'er's back with emotion.
"This gentleman only has a small purse. Xiu'er will give it back to you. Your Lord has a lot." Xiu'er turned around slowly, with a look of pity in her beautiful eyes.
"I can give you that little money." Lu Sheng interrupted her. "Tell me, what do you rely on to steal things from me?"
Although he didn't pay close attention, the person who could get the money bag from her was definitely not an ordinary person.
On the way into Yindu, he encountered no less than a dozen pickpockets, but he easily opened his third hand.
Only the girl Xiu'er in front of him did not let him notice at all.
"Um, can you not tell me? Brother, Xiu'er actually has her own difficulties." The girl showed a look of misery and pity.
"Of course, it's your freedom to say it's not yours." Lu Sheng nodded. "But if you take my money, you have to pay the corresponding price."
"What price?!" Xiu'er felt vaguely uncomfortable.
"For example, like this." Lu Sheng slowly extended an index finger.
boom!!!
In an instant, several huge invisible forces violently grabbed all the other girls in the alley and slammed them against the wall behind them.
There were sounds of bones breaking, and several girls rolled their eyes, vomited blood, and passed out.
"No!!!" Xiu'er hurriedly screamed. But it was too late. One of the girls had a large amount of blood pouring out from her body, and she was obviously on the verge of death.
