Jing Hao felt that this was abnormal. Why did he announce that the city gates were sealed but still let people out?
This seems to be a deliberate attempt to let people go and to spread the word about what happened in Yunzhou City.
This is an obvious thing. As long as the people in the city go out, the news about Shuiya will certainly spread.
Jing Hao doesn't dare not to leave now, and he doesn't dare to leave, because if he doesn't leave, he might die, and leaving is not the young master's plan.
However, if he went to the Yamen to report, pretending to be a person who does not understand martial arts, and he did not leave at this time, wouldn't it be very unreasonable?
The Yunzhou Prefecture Yamen has made it very clear that those who do not know how to practice are not martial arts practitioners. No matter what you come to Yunzhou for, you must leave Yunzhou City immediately after registering and leaving your name.
Are there any problems with those who don’t leave?
Of course Jing Hao can use a fake name and a fake identity, but when this fake name and identity are registered with the government, and where he lives and what he does, then it becomes real.
So Jing Hao hesitated again and again and decided to leave Yunzhou City first.
When we arrived at the government office, there were so many people queuing up to register that it was a headache. Fortunately, the government maintained order very well and there were no disturbances.
He waited for more than an hour before getting in line. After detailed registration, he was told that he had to leave Yunzhou City early tomorrow morning at the latest, otherwise he would be dealt with as a suspect.
Jing Hao responded and looked back. At the place where he had just lined up, many Tianshuiya disciples were still staring at everyone closely.
All those who come to the government to report, whether they say they can practice or not, must first take the Mangshi test.
Those who tested as warriors were required to queue up in another place to report, and only ordinary people could come to Jing Hao.
He took the Turtle Breath Pill, and the dosage was very well controlled, so the aura of cultivation in his body was perfectly hidden.
Things like Turtle Breath Pill are extremely valuable, and none of his men have them.
Before he separated from his subordinates, he told them not to be afraid, just follow the government's requirements. There would be no clues left in the government's hands, and the government could not do anything to them.
He also asked his men to keep an eye on the government's movements to see what Lin Ye was planning.
It was already past noon when he left the official residence. Jing Hao breathed a sigh of relief, went back to the inn, packed his things, paid the room fee, and then walked towards the city gate.
At this time, the city gates were also being checked, and only the south gate of Yunzhou was left open.
All those leaving the city can only go here, and disciples of Shangyang Palace are also arranged to be on duty here, and there are also light measuring stones.
Everyone who leaves the city must undergo a test at the city gate.
This made Jing Hao, who was originally relieved, become nervous again. Calculating, he had been taking the medicine for more than two and a half hours, and the effect of the medicine was almost over.
There was no other way, he didn't dare to take the risk, so he had to go back to the inn.
He couldn't take the medicine again before the effect completely wore off. Things like Guixidan were actually poisonous.
I told the innkeeper that there were too many people queuing up, so I decided to leave tomorrow morning. Naturally, the innkeeper wouldn't suspect anything, so he cleared out the guest room he had stayed in before.
Jing Hao just sat down, and before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he heard something strange outside the inn.
He walked to the window, opened it a crack and looked outside, and was shocked.
The outside has been surrounded by cowardly troops, and many archers are on guard a little further away, ready to shoot arrows to kill people at any time.
Jing Hao didn't know how he was exposed, but he knew he had to find a way to escape now.
In fact, this matter is not complicated. If the government wants to really investigate something and keep an eye on someone, it is not as difficult as imagined.
Anyone who comes to the city gate and wants to measure the light will be watched. Anyone who turns around and leaves, regardless of whether it is troublesome or has some other problem, will be stared at.
With Jing Hao's strength, he wouldn't be able to detect someone staring at him.
The reason why he didn't notice it was because the streets were now full of cowardly soldiers. There was no need for anyone to deliberately follow him. Wherever he went, he would follow him.
will be seen.
Someone at the city gate saw him turn around and leave, and the message was passed down one by one. The cowardly soldiers on both sides of the road received the order, and he would not be able to escape anywhere.
At this moment, the voice of the innkeeper came from the door.
"My lord, the officials said that all guests staying in the hotel should come to the door of the inn."
Jing Hao responded: "I know."
After much hesitation, he decided to take another dose of Turtle Breath Pill and waited until the effect of the medicine was almost fully exerted before going downstairs.
When we arrived at the door, other guests were already being interrogated.
When he got downstairs, Jing Hao felt something was wrong inside his body. There was a dull pain in his dantian, which seemed to be due to the toxicity of Guixidan, but he could still bear it.
When it was Jing Hao's turn, the captain of the cowardly army looked him up and down for a while and then asked: "Why didn't you just leave the city?"
Hearing these words, Jing Hao felt at ease, knowing that this was just a routine inspection.
"Go back to the army."
Jing Hao replied sincerely: "I just went to the city gate and saw that there were too many people queuing up. I thought that the deadline given by the government was tomorrow morning, and I wasn't particularly anxious, so I went back to the inn."
The captain stretched out his hand: "Stretch out your hand."
Jing Hao didn't hesitate at all. After he stretched out his hand, the captain immediately pinched his pulse.
This was to test whether he had the power to cultivate, but he didn't panic.
Even with his status, he was able to look at the captain with a calm face, without any strange expression.
The captain pinched his pulse, and his expression suddenly changed.
"Bold!"
The captain shouted loudly, while holding his pulse with one hand, he used the other hand to pull out the horizontal knife at his waist.
Jing Hao's expression changed, and almost subconsciously, he immediately pulled out his hand and kicked the captain on the chest.
At this moment, all the archers around him took aim.
It was also at this moment that Jing Hao knew that he had been fooled.
Turtle Breath Pill is such a subtle and magical thing, let alone a mere captain, even if Lin Ye came in person, he might not be able to find anything wrong by probing his veins.
He was deceived.
The lieutenant must have found nothing. Maybe he would scare everyone he interrogated like this.
With Jing Hao's scheming attitude and his status being deceived by a school captain, it can only be said that this is really like capsizing in a small gutter.
He knew that there was no point in continuing the act, so he turned around and rushed back. However, the poison of Guixi Dan took effect faster the more he moved, and he was unable to show his true strength at all.
Of course, his boxing and kicking skills are not a problem, but without the cooperation of internal strength, no matter how good his boxing and kicking skills are, he can only fight a little better than ordinary strong men.
Moreover, when the poison takes effect, he may not be able to fight any stronger than ordinary men.
At this moment, Jing Hao made the last choice in his life.
He bit the collar.
There is a poison hidden in his collar. If he eats the poison, no one will be able to save him.
This poison takes effect very quickly and is extremely toxic. Even if he is fed the antidote right away, the toxicity will damage his internal organs.
The captain didn't even realize that he had cheated a big fish to death.
Soon after, Jing Hao's body was brought to the government office.
Not long after, his registration name at the government office was found.
After verifying his path, it becomes clear where it comes from.
"Coming from Lou County."
Shi Jintang looked at the road guide handed over by his subordinates. He was silent for a moment and then turned back: "Send someone to hand it over to the Protector. Although there may not be any gains, we still need to check it." So soon, this road guide was found.
It was delivered to Lin Ye.
Soon, Monk Hua and a group of people left Yunzhou City and headed straight to the north.
According to Lou County.
At the same time, about six hundred miles away from Yunzhou City, there was a small town called Yumei.
Yumei County is small in size and is not far from the jurisdiction of Izumo Prefecture.
Cui Fanye was caught up by Jing Ran here, telling him what happened and asking him not to go to Geling again.
After Cui Fanye heard the news, he also knew that he might not gain anything by going to Geling again, so he listened to the advice and stayed here temporarily, preparing to return to Dongbo at any time.
He didn't leave immediately, he was still a little reluctant to give up. He wanted to find out if there would be any big news coming from Geling.
Although the Cui family was destroyed, the Cui family's hidden strength among the people still cannot be underestimated.
A lot of business is still going on, and news is constantly coming to Cui Fanye.
But after waiting for so many days, it was really calm over there in Geling City.
Jingran waited with him for a few days, also wanting to know what happened in Geling.
If he kept waiting, he was afraid that he would be scolded by the young master when he returned, so Jingran planned to return to Zhilou County first and let Cui Fanye wait here by himself.
The inn where Cui Fuye stayed was the largest inn in Yumei County, but the conditions were actually not that good.
After packing her things, Jingran was about to leave when she noticed a man wearing a bamboo hat appeared at the door of the inn.
This guy stood there motionless and said nothing.
Jingran didn't hesitate at all, turned around and went back to the inn, then slipped out of the back window.
When I got to the back, I found several men wearing the same bamboo hats waiting here.
They all wore similar attire, and the most eye-catching ones were their bamboo hats and unsheathed long knives.
At this moment, Jingran remembered what the young master said.
After the young master ordered to get rid of those who were staring at Lin Ye in Yunzhou City, he once said that there was a huge spider web around Lin Ye.
Now it seems that he has been stuck by this cobweb. Even though he is hundreds of miles away in Yuhu County, this cobweb is still clinging to him.
"You've taken the trouble."
Jingran put down the package and an iron ruler slipped from his sleeve.
"It took you so long to take action. Is it because you saw that I was leaving?"
He asked, but no one paid any attention.
He didn't intend to wait any longer and took action directly. The iron ruler swept forward, and what was swept out was actually a sword aura.
But when it comes to swords...he really chose the wrong opponent.
