After the immortal disappeared

There was a pause after the two sounds, and then two more sounds.

Of course there was no reply from the inn.

So there was no movement outside.

Are these guys quite cautious? He Lingchuan let out a breath, knowing that the other party was 90% going to back down. The fact that the crow did not fly out meant that there were changes in the inn, so the other party might not take action.

Consider them smart, otherwise they will be served by Fu Sheng Dao when they come.

He Lingchuan did not chase him out because Baoshu Wang Shoudian was coming and Fufeng City implemented a temporary curfew for the past two days.

It's not worth getting into trouble at this point.

Sure enough, about ten breaths later, a sharp whistle came from the street. It was probably the policeman shouting: "Who is it? Stop!"

At the same time, it was accompanied by the roar of wild beasts.

It seems that the servants are not just humans, they are enough for those guys to drink a pot.

The movements became smaller and smaller, and it was clear that both the fleeing and pursuing parties were far away.

Peace returned to the streets.

…

After dawn, there was another inn two hundred feet away.

Someone crept into a guest room, where the lamp was still lit, and Fushan was sitting in front of the window.

"Any news?"

"Yes. The target has already moved into Liushe, which is an official residence specially arranged by Fufeng City for envoys from various countries."

The subordinate said: "Others have made arrangements."

"Call everyone back. Fu Feng City is too heavily guarded, so we won't take action here." Fushan changed his plan, "However, we still need to confirm the whereabouts of the things first."

￥￥￥￥￥

In just a few days, all the chaos caused by the emperor's fluid in Fufeng City was cleared up and gradually returned to order.

The closed shops reopened one by one, and there were more pedestrians on the road.

All walks of life have regained their vitality, and the scene of busy traffic has returned.

The demons and humans who have become the price will never speak again, so they are gradually forgotten. No matter what happened in the past, life has to pass.

What's more, the people of Bega Country know very well that their lives are already considered happy compared to the civilians of other small countries that are torn by war.

At this time, Sha Xinghai had already led his team back to Fufeng City. He didn't even have time to change his clothes before he came over and reported to his father:

"The missing deputy envoy of the Jingling Kingdom has been found. His body is under a big tree on the west bank of Sanxin Lake. The monsters nearby said that they had not seen the murderer."

Taifu Sha almost had a knot between his brows: "The country of Jiling has been at peace for more than ten years and has good neighborly relations. I haven't heard of any rifts recently."

"Is it not a national hatred, but a personal hatred?" Sha Xinghai looked worried, "I heard that this deputy envoy is the son of General Yinshan. He has good cultivation and has many followers. General Yinshan has a cruel temperament. Once this news reaches his ears, how can he give up? "

"Whenever the emperor appears in the world, there are always a lot of monsters. There are more than a dozen monsters missing from various countries' missions, not only the son of General Yinshan." Taifu Sha also had a headache, "I just went to report to my king. In fact, on the night when the Imperial Liquid erupted, it used its magical power to monitor major and minor incidents in the city and suburbs, and in several cases, the mission was actively involved. "

No matter how great the magical power of King Baoshu is, it has a limited range after all. It can only be monitored nearby, and there is no way to extend it to places as far away as Sanxin Lake.

That was a method only available to demons and immortals in ancient times. Today, people can only hope for it, but there is nothing they can do.

"I, Wang Shoudian, will hold it tomorrow. There will still be a curfew tonight. We will patrol the city and send more manpower."

After Sha Xinghai retreated, Taifu Sha thought for a while and asked Wu Jinsong who was standing aside:

"You came yesterday to report that He Xiao was more than a hundred miles northeast of the city to receive the emperor?"

"Yes." Wu Jinsong always admired him for being able to remember a few small things so clearly despite having everything on his mind.

"It's not far from Sanxinyuan. He came back late. He might have seen something. Go and find out."

￥￥￥￥￥

Wu Jinsong bought some snacks to go with the wine before looking for He Lingchuan.

After entering the inn and knocking on the door, no one answered. Instead, a cat's head stuck out from the roof:

"Who are you looking for?"

"He Xiao."

The black cat asked him again: "What's your last name?"

"Wu, I'm from Taifu's Mansion."

The black cat jumped on his shoulder, whispered in his ear: "My boss told me that you go to Songhe Restaurant to find him."

Wu Jinsong understood, left the inn and walked back to Songhe Restaurant on East Street.

This restaurant is about four hundred steps away from Taifu's Mansion, not too far or too close, so the prices in the restaurant are neither too high nor too low, just right.

Wu Jinsong and other guards often come here to have drinks.

He walked in by a familiar road and said he was looking for a guest named He. The waiter did not take him to the box. Instead, he took him to the guest room in the back row and knocked on one of the doors:

"Sir, you have a visitor."

He Lingchuan was sitting in the room with wine on the table.

Wu Jinsong walked in and sat down directly, asking him: "Why did you change your residence here?"

"I'm staying here so I can have a night of drinking with Brother Wu."

There are guest rooms at the back of Songhe Restaurant. Even if there is a curfew, residents can still come to the front building to drink. As long as you don't walk around in the streets, the officials won't care. It's just that the rooms here are a little more expensive than the original inn in He Lingchuan. The price should be doubled.

Wu Jinsong put down the dishes in his hand: "I'll add some dishes to your room."

He never cared about curfews and could run around any night.

Wu Jinsong took it for granted, and He Lingchuan was not surprised, so neither of them mentioned it.

He Lingchuan asked the waiter for a few plates and poured the food and wine brought by Wu Jinsong into them with his own hands. The two toasted each other a glass of wine. He Lingchuan's eyes lit up when he saw a dish, and he reached out to pick one up and peel it off.

Wu Jinsong gave a thumbs up: "Brother, he knows the goods! I took many people to eat this, and they didn't dare to touch it."

Among the food and wine he brought, the braised beef in soy sauce was fragrant and red, and it was well-cut, with thin tendons attached to each slice. The snails were also fried to a rich, spicy aroma. But what He Lingchuan picked up first was a pickled egg.

People who are afraid of this thing are really afraid of it, and people who love to eat it really love to eat it.

He Lingchuan asked while eating: "Why is Brother Wu here?"

"Didn't I tell you yesterday that I'd like to meet you for a drink today?" Wu Jinsong secretly thought that this guy knew he would come, and even hired a cat security guard to pass the message.

He Lingchuan filled a glass for him and said, "Is there anything else?" We made an appointment to drink tonight, and Wu Jinsong came before noon.

"What can happen?"

"Then let's just drink and not talk about business tonight."

Wu Jinsong was slightly stunned and coughed: "Isn't practicing cultivation considered official business?"

The old god He Lingchuan said: "Okay, you can ask if you want. But first, tell me, what happened?"

This kid. Wu Jinsong had no choice. He came here to check the truth, but he didn't expect to be probed by the other party first: "It was something that happened in Sanxinyuan on the night when the emperor's liquid erupted."

"Oh?" He Lingchuan asked him, "Who died this time?"

There is a curfew tonight, and it will be Baoshu Wang Shoudian again soon. If there is nothing serious, Wu Jinsong will choose this time to come to him?

Although He Lingchuan had saved this man, he knew very well how important the friendship between the two was.

"The deputy envoy of the Qiling Kingdom." Wu Jinsong said, "The envoy of the Qiling Kingdom came to report the case two days ago. They happened to encounter God's blood when they were passing through Sanxinyuan. As a result, the deputy envoy got separated and disappeared. Mr. Sha took people to Sanxin. Xinyuan searched around and finally found the deputy envoy's body on the bank of Sanxin Lake. Although it had been partially eaten by birds and animals, it could still be identified. "

He Lingchuan knew something in his heart: "What kind of monster is this deputy envoy?"

Fufeng City has also discovered the body of the deputy envoy of the Niuling Kingdom, which will be easier to handle.

"The Yinshan Python." Wu Jinsong shook his head, "It is the son of General Yinshan of the Jiling Kingdom. He is forty years old and has just reached adulthood. It is said that General Yinshan let him go out with the regiment for training this time, and he did not expect to suffer such an outrage. The mission asked Taifu to investigate and find out which of General Yinshan’s enemies has also come to Fufeng City.”

"Oh? Taifu also thinks this is a vendetta?"

"I can't say for sure at the moment, I just know that all the flesh and blood from its body has been drained. If it wasn't a vendetta, who would have done this cruelly?" Wu Jinsong said seriously, "There are so many things going on in Fufeng City's external and internal affairs these past two days. If Brother He has anything, If you find it, please let me know.”

He Lingchuan pondered for a moment before asking him: "The Yinshan python you are talking about is a big gray-white snake with fine black patterns on its skin?"

Wu Jinsong was excited: "Yes, yes, exactly! Have you seen it?"

"That night, a crow reported that a large number of Emperor Ooze appeared by the lake. I rushed over and saw that many monsters and warriors were fighting at the lake. The battle was very fierce. The two 'Laozhi' that won in the end were about to clean up the spoils. , but was scared away by a dozen people. The deputy envoy of the Jiuling Kingdom you mentioned, that is, the Yinshan python was still sneaking close to the leader of the group, trying to make a surprise attack, but he suddenly revealed his true form and surrounded and slaughtered him. ”

Wu Jinsong was dumbfounded when he heard this: "What, the deputy envoy of the Jiling Kingdom went to rob the emperor's blood and was killed as a result?"

The cause of death was that simple, dying for the emperor like other monsters?

"Didn't you say that several envoys were reduced in number due to their involvement in the Imperial Flow Dispute?" Monsters are monsters, and they are not reserved because of their status as envoys.

He Lingchuan shrugged: "I also heard those people say that the killing was wrong."

"Kill..." Wu Jinsong was stunned, "Killed by mistake? Who did they originally want to kill?"

Did the Yinshan Python die in vain?

"have no idea."

Wu Jinsong felt a chill in his heart.

Those people actually killed the wrong target? In other words, they will do it again!

He Lingchuan added: "The Yinshan python probably looks very similar to the target, so it was misidentified, right?"

In other words, the target of that group of people is also a long worm?

"You also saw the murderer who killed the messenger yesterday."

"Huh?" Wu Jinsong was startled, and his mind turned several times, "You mean, those people in the inn yesterday? Oh, why didn't you tell me earlier!"

He Lingchuan picked up a piece of beef with soy sauce and chewed it slowly.

Well, it's chewy and tasty, and it's worthy of being a snack bought by Wu Jinsong from a time-honored restaurant.

"On the night when the Emperor's Serum erupted, the monsters and warriors by the Sanxin Lake died in dozens. It's not surprising to see so many. If you didn't mention this Yinshan python, how would I know he still had such an identity?" Mo said that night. Human lives are like grass, monsters are like dust, how many people care afterward?

"The leader called himself Fushan. He sneaked near the inn last night. He probably wanted to kill me and silence me."
