Chapter 43

Beijing, late at night at Haishi.

At this moment, due to tomorrow's Imperial City Heroes' Banquet, the streets are crowded with people and brightly lit, which is more lively than usual.

Many invited warriors, city lords and other local officials and their heirs, as well as people from major forces have already gone to Beijing in advance.

"call!"

On the street, people haven't seen clearly what is passing by before their eyes, they only feel that their clothes are fluttering, and there is a group of shadows that are fleeting.

Hurrying to the stone alley where Zhang Jiang was stunned at noon, Xiao Yun turned over and saw the sleeping man when he landed. Without thinking, he quickly took off the bright and mighty Forbidden Armor, threw it on him casually, and then flew away. Walk.

About half an hour later, a forbidden soldier led a big black dog, followed Xiao Yun's blood all the way, and finally found Zhang Jiang lying impressively outside a wall of the stone alley!
"Damn! You actually took off your clothes and pretended to be dead?"

"Get up! Go to the prison and have a good sleep!"

……

"Snapped!"

I don't know who slapped Zhang Jiang, who was suffering from lethargy, in one fell swoop!
"You... what are you doing!"

Zhang Jiang woke up leisurely and sneezed. When he got up, he was surprised to find that he was surrounded by a large group of officers and soldiers, and the famous big black dog in the palace was sniffing everywhere on the ground.

"Zhang Jiang, I didn't expect you to be such a thief!"

"When someone recommended you to enter the palace from Yaowang's Mansion, I thought you were uneasy and kind, and it is indeed so!"

Among them, a Forbidden Army Commander who was on duty in the imperial city tonight took a step forward, held a torch, and spoke with a serious expression, quite disappointed.

Zhang Jiang was startled, just like Monk Zhang Er, confused, he couldn't help muttering: "What... what kind of thief? I... I don't know anything!"

"Now that the evidence is solid, you still want to deny it!!"

Another commander of the forbidden army sternly reprimanded, and pointed at the blood-stained battle armor with several holes on the ground.

Zhang Jiang glanced down and panicked immediately!

He knew that the kid at noon must have caused the trouble, and now he has to take the blame for others.

"You're still pretending to be stupid, hurry up and tie it up!!"

With an order, all the officers and soldiers rushed forward, punched and kicked, and Zhang Jiang's screams came. He was tied up and did not forget to cry for grievances, and was escorted back to the imperial city by the crowd.

……

At this moment, Xiao Yun is meditating cross-legged in a house in the downtown area of ​​the capital, quickly recovering his vitality.

After a battle with the eunuch in the imperial city, Xiao Yun discovered that the long wound on his neck showed signs of poisoning!

Suddenly, Xiao Yun mobilized the pill fire, gathered his fingertips, made a few fingerprints, pressed them on the acupuncture points around the wound, and after a while of gritting his teeth, he forced out a large piece of black and blue blood. As soon as he touched the air, he snorted. There was a chirping sound, and it burned up in an instant!
Xiao Yun then slowly breathed a sigh of relief, opened his eyes, and looked at the stone alley before.

There, Zhang Jiang had been taken away by the officers and soldiers, and the big black dog who was still staying there suddenly shook his head and looked towards his side of the eaves, as if he was thinking.

"Wang Wang Wang..."

The big black dog smelled Xiao Yun's breath, and immediately roared loudly.

Xiao Yun just glanced away, and with the surging mental power, he swept away in an instant, making the big black dog go dumb immediately, whimpered a few times, and even shuddered!
This beast has a special nose, but it is less aggressive than ordinary monsters. It cannot perceive the aura of the strong above the Dongtian Realm. It is very useful in a small secular country.

"Tomorrow's hero's banquet...the position of the warden is already known, so I can only find a way to sneak into the imperial city again..."

Xiao Yun said with emotion, his eyes showing seriousness.

After tonight's incident, it is impossible to pretend to be the Forbidden Army of the Imperial City. The chance of being exposed like that is too high, too risky, and not worth trying.

Just change your disguise!

Regarding the whereabouts of the warden of the empire, there is only one clue at present. He will appear at the hero banquet, so no matter what, he must go to the hero banquet!

"call……"

Stretching his robe, Xiao Yun got up and flew down the eaves.

Walking on the street, weaving through the crowd, Xiao Yun's scars have gradually healed at this moment. There is no blood, and it is almost difficult to see the injuries. There is only a faint, shallow scar.

Now it is still the disguise at noon, without double pupils, with an ordinary appearance, the kind that people can't recall at a glance.

Xiao Yun walked towards an inn. In previous memory, this inn was the most luxurious in the capital, and now it is occupied by officials designated by the government for the hero banquet.

Standing not far away, separated by a few streets, you can still see at a glance that this inn is seven or eight stories high, with embroidered doors and carved doors, which is extremely luxurious.

Now in front of this inn, there are many officials coming in and out, all with high-level personal guards.

Xiao Yun nodded secretly, already made up his mind.

Presumably these officials are the city lords of some big cities in the Shengwu Empire or people from aristocratic families, and they must have invitations to enter the imperial city tomorrow!
He once learned in the imperial study room where he entered for the first time that guests must bring invitation cards to enter the imperial city, otherwise, if anyone can enter the hero banquet, how decent would it be.

After a while, Xiao Yun set off and walked towards the inn full of imperial officials.

Suddenly, Xiao Yun stopped and turned to look at a side alley.

It was a residential area, and there were very few people passing by. Compared with the street, it was extremely deserted. Xiao Yun learned from the feedback of his spiritual sense that there was a group of people there.

In an alley late at night, there was a young man in white with five guards, all of whom were of good cultivation. He surrounded a haggard old man against a wall and was yelling at him sharply.

What attracted Xiao Yun's attention was the phrase "Young City Lord" in the old man's mouth.

Xiao Yun strode away, seeing the young man in white pushing the old man's shoulders, hitting the wall fiercely, cursing: "Old man! I tell you, if you don't speak clearly today, I will give you a discount." Your leg!!"

Shen Suanzi was wearing a black and white coat, and his eyes were a little cloudy. Hearing being threatened like this, he quickly spread his hands and said, "Young City Master, calm down! Calm down... what this old man said is true, if you don't believe it, I won't take your money, so Is it all right?"

"You think I feel sorry for this little money? Damn, call me!"

Xu Zhen said angrily, and as soon as he waved his hand, the five guards snorted coldly, fisted and kicked ruthlessly, and slammed on the old man. The latter quickly stretched out his hand to protect him, and shouted: "Wait...wait!"

"What are you talking about, when I arrived in the capital, my luck was bad! Damn it, call me again!!"

Twisting his neck and squinting at the old man, Xu Zhen greeted him again with anger burning in his chest.

"Wait! Listen to the old man first... Before the young city lord just wrote down the word 'true' on the paper, the old man guessed that your surname is 'Xu'. Is this wrong? The old man used six lines and gossip Predicting the fortunes of the near future, setting the order of the stars, and asserting by Yishu, this is the truth... how dare you lie to you, young city lord!"

The old fortune-teller moved his tongue cleverly, looked at Xu Zhen's surprised expression, and hurriedly cleaned up the ruined mess, and said, "I am the number one fortune teller in the capital! I have been counting on this street for more than 20 years, how can I lift it up?" Throwing stones at your own signboard?"

Seeing the old man's serious expression, Xu Zhen still stared, but with a little more doubt, he frowned and asked: "Old man, according to your words, how can my recent fortune be improved?!"

"This... is difficult! If the old man is not mistaken, is the young city lord married recently? And the woman was born on a very yin day with a very yin constitution, and there is a little red sand on her body?"

Shen Suanzi pinched his fingers, frowned and muttered.
