Starting from the recovery of Shanhaijing

Chapter 349

By observing other soul warriors.

Yan Jing knew something about this kind of special existence.

Following Bai Ruosu's footsteps and leaving, Yan Jing remained silent, and his movements were as strict as possible.

Stepping out of the threshold, the two people, one white and one black, stood out in the snow.

Yan Jing looked around through the gauze curtain of the bamboo hat.

Since the part of the ceremony belonging to Bai Ruosu had already been completed, she had to leave from the left side. Many people looked at her along the way, and Yan Jing could feel that the former's footsteps were constantly accelerating, as if she wanted to leave here quickly.

'It seems that the status of her contractor should not be low in the past, and she mentioned in the ceremony that there was a sudden disaster at home. Perhaps this is why she was specially arranged for the third batch. '

While thinking, the two left the square in front of the hall.

The ceremony behind him is still going on, but it has nothing to do with them.

Only now did Yan Jing realize that there were quite a few people outside the Hall of Souls.

There are a large number of strange-looking cars parked all over the street, with white steam lingering in them.

Elderly couples gathered in groups of three or five, holding umbrellas to shelter them from the wind and snow, and talking to each other in lower tones.

This scene is almost the same as the pre-school state in kindergarten.

Some of them were accompanied by soul warriors, whose status was not low judging from their clothes.

Even if you don't know much about the state of the world.

Yan Jing also knows that these monks who can contract soul warriors should be the upper middle class of society.

Practitioners and superhumans have similar attributes, the only difference is that people in this world seem to have to get the consent of the underworld if they want to become superhumans, and they have to sign a contract with soul warriors.

Of course, this is Yan Jing's current observation. He is not sure if there are other types of transcendents.

With that in mind, Yan Jing's eyes turned to Bai Ruosu's advancing position again.

There was an old man with gray temples bowing his head.

He was obviously not Bai Ruosu's elder, and when the latter walked out of the Soul Suppressing Hall, he became the focus of attention again.

This is a little strange.

If it is said that the contrast between the appearance and the contracted soul warrior attracts attention inside the palace, but it can still be treated like this outside.

Think of the words heard in the temple.

Yan Jing had already speculated about the "disaster" that Bai Ruosu was talking about.

Bai Ruosu still didn't respond to this, approached the butler and said in a low voice,

"Go to Qinli Street, hurry up!"

"What should the soul warrior do?"

The butler looked at Yan Jing, looked him up and down, a look of disappointment flashed across his face, and immediately bowed to ask the girl who had already sat in the car.

"Come in and sit."

Bai Ruosu glanced at Yan Jing, gave the order concisely, then said to the housekeeper after a pause,

"Low-level soul fighters don't have spiritual intelligence, they are just pure fighting tools, and don't need extra etiquette."

Emotionless fighting machine?
Yan Jing sat in the car, rejoicing in her heart, thinking that it's no wonder the Torch made such an arrangement.

According to Bai Ruosu, among the first to sign the contract, the high-level soul warriors all have a certain amount of spiritual intelligence, and there may be other specialties.

Yan Jing didn't know anything about it, and if she was not careful, she would reveal her secrets.

In contrast, low-level soul fighters are the easiest to pretend, as long as they obey orders.

Bai Ruosu, a monk or a contractor, will not have any defense against him, and he can use this identity to obtain information.

Sitting in the car, Yan Jing discovered that the technology used by the transportation tools of this era is completely different from the present world.

In this car alone, there is neither an intelligent system nor common basic equipment in the world. Instead, it is replaced by exquisite mechanical creations and special power driven by steam.

"Miss, you are currently in the Ding You period. According to the rules of the Sanju Division, even if you become a soul cultivator, you cannot interfere with criminal cases. I'm afraid you will get involved rashly."

The housekeeper saw Bai Ruosu flip through the letter in his hand through the rearview mirror, and said softly.

The so-called "Ding You" refers to the premise that an official must resign and return to his ancestral home no matter what position he holds if his parents have passed away at home, and keep filial piety for his parents for a period of time.

Yan Jing, who had read many folk classics in this world, also knew about this, and couldn't help looking at Bai Ruosu.

This girl seems to have been an official law enforcement officer of the Sanfa Division, which is undoubtedly good news.

On the one hand, the secrets that the torch asked Yan Jing to investigate, whether it is the cooperation method between the underworld and the human world, or the production method of devotional incense, must be official secrets, which are difficult for ordinary people to access.

On the other hand, he is an official law enforcement officer and carries a weapon with him. Presumably, he has had conflicts with evil spirits and fallen angels.

Kill two birds with one stone.

I suddenly caught a glimpse of the letter in her hand, there was not much content on it, only a few phrases,

"Qinli Avenue, No. 23, the shopkeeper of Fengxiang Garment Shop, one of the witnesses on the night of the Baifu incident. '

"The Pleasure Inn's buddy, Aluo, a witness to the incense robbery case. '

"Swordsman Qian Sanhe, the informant said that he boasted in the tavern that he had participated in the incense robbery case. '

It seems that she intends to investigate the case?

"It's impossible for me to wait for seven months. That will completely cover up all the clues, let alone find the murderer and rectify the name of my Bai family. There must be something wrong with the robbery case that my parents investigated before their death. There may be their internal response!"

There were only two people in the car plus a soul warrior, Bai Ruosu didn't hide it, and said straightforwardly,

"Now I'm in the state of Ding You to the outside world, but it's an excellent opportunity to find out the truth."

"But you can't rely on the monitoring power of the Sanfa Division now, and the rank of the soul warrior is not enough to bring enough reinforcement, in case you encounter bandits during the independent investigation"

The housekeeper glanced at Yan Jing who was standing next to him, his face was full of worry.

'What is a separate investigation, I am not a human? '

Remaining silent, Yan Jing waited for Bai Ruosu's response while slandering her.

In order to complete the main task, Yan Jing must have a deep understanding of the situation in this different world.

If Bai Ruosu can't meet his requirements, then he has to think of other ways.

"Compared to giving up the opportunity to find out the truth for the sake of safety, I would rather put myself in danger and face the things my parents have encountered. If I want to revive the Bai family, this is the backbone I must have!"

Holding the letter paper tightly in his hand, Bai Ruosu said in a deep voice.

'qualified. '

The girl in front of him can be used as a breaking point for this recruitment mission.

Yan Jing withdrew her gaze, and turned to look out the window.

In all fairness, Yan Jing has experienced many different worlds, but he has never been as interested in them as he is today.

The reason is very simple. In the past, all the different worlds that Yan Jing came to were the broken worlds that were being invaded by evil spirits on a large scale, or had already been invaded. What he was facing was a broken world full of pessimistic atmosphere. like.

However, the world in front of us is obviously different.

What Yan Jing sees here is not far from the present world
No.

It should be said that it is more vigorous than the present world!

The steam car was driving on the viaduct outside the Hall of Souls, looking out at the city through the window.

Huge buildings similar to those in the demon city world can be seen everywhere.

It's just that there are significant differences in the construction materials and design styles of the two.

If the former presents the future and intelligent technology.

So what presented to Yan Jing at this time was the perfect combination of ancient rhyme and steam machinery.

Huge and complicated steam transportation pipelines can be seen everywhere outside the huge building complex, and some of the factory areas are full of large-scale equipment that Yan Jing has never seen before.

Partially outline the cornices, green tiles, wooden windows, and the mortise and tenon structure of the beams in the architectural details.

Wait until the steam car rolls into the city.

What is displayed in front of Yan Jing is the life of this world.

Pedestrians pass by on the road paved with bricks and stones, and ordinary people in coarse brown clothes carry goods on their shoulders and sell them along the street.

Wearing silk and satin clothes, the attendants walked out of the shop swaggeringly with their bellies on their sides, and looked around with their heads up.

A two-meter-tall pack horse was slowly pulling a cart of coal, and a steam "sedan" was passing by not far away. Some well-off vendors were pushing small carts with wheels, changing positions from time to time. Find the liveliest places.

After entering the bustling urban area where Qinli Street is located, the situation on the street changed again.

There are a lot fewer vendors, and they are replaced by a variety of majestic shops, and their specifications are no longer just one or two floors. Most buildings go up three floors, and there are aerial corridors as connections between them.

He saw a girl in a tulle skirt practicing dancing on the pavilion under the red and green eaves, and there was a man holding a telescope on the mechanical platform not far away, and there were several people vying for it, all wanting to appreciate it. "Beautiful scenery"; the corridor hanging in the air connects the two inns next to the street. The drunken guests swayed and climbed the fence made of twisted and staggered steel bars and were about to jump down, but they were followed out The boy grabbed the hem of his clothes and dragged it back.

Occasionally, I can see a few performers on the street, holding some strange props in their hands or leading a steaming mechanical monkey, manipulating them to distribute leaflets to the surrounding pedestrians, telling them what time it is tonight, Which tiles have any peculiar performances.

The steam car eventually stopped in front of a clothing store.

Presumably it should be the first target mentioned in that letter.

"Uncle Wu, the soul warrior and I will get off here first, and you will take care of the house. If anyone asks, just say that I occasionally catch a cold and recuperate indoors, so it's not suitable to see people."

Bai Ruosu took Yan Jing out of the car and explained a few words.

When Steward Wu drove the car away, Bai Ruosu noticed that the eyes of the passers-by on the street were all focused on him, and when he saw the black-robed soul man beside him, he suddenly realized that the latter's attire was somewhat conspicuous.

"Later, I will go to the owner of the tailor shop to inquire about the news. You have to change into another attire, otherwise it will be inconvenient to walk outside, you."

The words came to an abrupt end, Bai Ruosu rubbed the center of her brows, maybe her mind was on the case, she forgot that her soul warrior was actually ignorant.

Thinking of this, he glanced at the black-robed soul man next to him, and couldn't help but marvel at the skill of the soul-suppressing hall.

To be able to make soul warriors so real.

There is no difference from ordinary people.
