After passing through the cannon fodder villain in the book, the heroine confessed to me

Chapter 231 Eavesdropping
To be precise, what attracted them was not the patrol itself, but their conversation.

The two looked at each other, hid their figures in a tacit understanding, and quietly followed the team not far away.

"Captain, why do you think we need to patrol back and forth? The city has been sealed and orders have been issued. Which of these ordinary people dare to go out against orders without authorization? Why do we need to be so tired? What are we doing?"

The speaker was small and skinny, with a group of triangular eyes rolling around. He was obviously a person who was accustomed to cheating and sneaking around.

The captain seemed to know the character of his subordinates very well, and he reprimanded him without looking back.

"Feeling tired? Okay, you don't have to be tired at the City Lord's Mansion. You can sit down if you want and lie down if you want. If you want to go, I won't stop you."

The captain's tone was calm, but the skinny monkey-like team member seemed to be frightened. A look of panic flashed across his face. After regaining consciousness, he quickly shook his head and said.

"Captain, I'm just complaining. You don't have to scare me like this, right?"

"Humph!"

The captain seemed dissatisfied. He looked around and saw that no other colleagues were coming, so he lowered his voice and spoke to his team members.

"Let me tell you, don't be ignorant of your blessings when you are in the midst of blessings. You have all seen the master's methods with your own eyes. Even a strong man like our sect leader is respectful and dare not make any mistakes. Little guys like us Well, if you want to survive, just obey orders and don't be careful, especially you, Ma Yang, do you hear me clearly?"

Slender monkey, no, Ma Yang shrank his head when he heard his captain's roll call, not daring to say anything more, and nodded timidly.The others saw this and did not speak again.

After that, the patrol fell silent. Qin Yunshuo and Jiang Miao followed for a while, and after confirming that they had no intention of speaking again, they turned and left.

"It seems that there is indeed a problem in the city lord's mansion. But compared to this, I am more concerned about who the 'sir' they call him is, so that even Jiang Cheng, the master of the Soul Gathering Realm, has to respect him?"

Qin Yunshuo muttered a few words to himself thoughtfully, and then he looked at Jiang Miao, and both of them saw the movement in the other's eyes.

Dongcheng is mostly occupied by inns and residential buildings. After ignoring these, there are actually not many large buildings that can be inspected.

It didn't take long for the two of them to stop in front of a courtyard gate.

The stone lions of the town mansion, the gilded plaque, and the door with red lacquer and copper nails, everything shows that the owner of this mansion has an extraordinary status.

But the reason why the two stopped here was not because of these, but just now, a patrol team Shi Shiran walked into the big house, and not long after, another team came out.

Obviously, this splendid mansion has been temporarily used as a temporary resting place by these patrolling disciples.

"Go in and see?"

Expressing his meaning with his mouth, seeing Jiang Miao nodding, Qin Yunshuo reattached the Shenyin Talisman.The two of them jumped lightly, holding on to the wall and climbed into the courtyard. In order not to disturb the enemy, they did not use even a trace of spiritual power during the whole process.

The lights in the main hall were brightly lit, and there were faint voices of conversation. Unfortunately, according to Jianhun's survey, there were quite a few people there, including two masters of the Condensation Realm.

With their strength, it would be easy to detect their whereabouts if they got too close. Therefore, after seeing the message conveyed by Jiang Miao's gestures, Qin Yunshuo could only regretfully give up his plan to eavesdrop and turned to the backyard. Touch it.

Perhaps it was God's blessing that in the dark backyard, there was actually a room with lights on. The two of them looked at each other and quietly touched it.

There were three figures in the house. Except for a young man who was shackled and covered in blood, the other two were the "jailers" guarding him.

One of them, a big man with a beard, was leaning against the wall with a depressed face, touched his sword, and said angrily to his companions. "I said, how long do we have to stay? I always feel that something is wrong with this kid. Isn't there any danger to us here?"

The other man was not that tall, but his face was more sinister. Hearing this, he smiled coldly.

"Danger? It has been twelve hours. He has been acting like a dead dog. What danger can there be? Besides, if anything goes wrong, you and I can just shout for help. There are two elders sitting in the front hall. I'm afraid What?"

"Who...who said I'm scared? I just...just feel uncomfortable. I don't know what the higher-ups are thinking. Why are they torturing these casual cultivators? Each one's methods are crueler than the last, which is weird."

"If we don't torture the casual cultivators, we might torture you and me. Okay, okay, what are we going to do from above? What does it have to do with us? Just concentrate on it, and let people know that we talked about this later. There will definitely be no good results. "

The vicious man crossed his arms, interrupted the bearded man impatiently, and then stared at the young man on the ground.

The bearded man muttered something bitterly, and was about to concentrate on his work, when he suddenly yawned without warning.

It's so strange, why did you suddenly feel sleepy?Could it be last night... No, there are enemies!
Unfortunately, the bearded man understood a little too late. As soon as he realized the possibility of "enemy attack", his body collapsed to the ground uncontrollably.

"Bang" "Bang"

There were two muffled sounds in the room, and after the bearded man fell unconscious, the vicious man fell to the ground equally heavily.

He casually put away the bamboo pipe that blew into the smoke. Jiang Miao didn't pay attention to the two unconscious people. He walked towards the shackled young man and stretched out his hand to check.

Qin Yunshuo secretly sighed, "Bai Yuanqing's medicine is really effective," and then stepped into the door.

These two miscellaneous fish in the fate-defying realm don't even need a trump card like Shixiang Ruanjin Powder. The smoke they just smoked was given by Bai Yuanqing, and the effect was unexpectedly good.

As for why Bai Yuanqing carries this medicine with her?Qin Yunshuo decided to ignore this problem.

Jiang Miao tinkered with the young man for a while, then waved to Qin Yunshuo with a serious look on his face.

Originally, the two of them had agreed that Qin Yunshuo would be the lookout and Jiang Miao would be solely responsible for checking the situation, but now she had this expression on her face as she invited him to come with her. It was really hard to relax.

"what happened?"

"There is demonic energy in this person, but it is very weak. It is difficult to detect it without looking carefully."

Qin Yunshuo frowned and put his hand on the young man's wrist. Sure enough, he felt a very hidden demonic energy.

"Demon cultivator? How come even they are... wrong. Listening to the conversation between these two people just now, they mentioned 'this group of casual cultivators', which shows that this person is not an exception, and there are many people who have encountered him. What's going on? What's the matter? Is there a large area of ​​artificially created demonic cultivators?"

Jiang Miao shook her head. Just when she was about to say that she didn't know, she suddenly felt a pain in her wrist.

Instinctively, he retracted his hand and saw that the unconscious young man on the ground had opened his eyes at some point.

It was a pair of eyes with only the whites of the eyes, not a trace of black, and not even a trace of emotion. What was there was just endless madness and cold murderous intent.

Raising his dry palm - the culprit who had just pinched Jiang Miao's wrist - the young man suddenly exerted his strength and broke free of the restraining chains. The next second, he rushed towards Jiang Miao's direction.
