I have a magical tree

Chapter 252 Xining County Governor, Sima Zongheng

The lights in Jing'anfang were still bright at this time.

Jiang Taiqing followed a middle-aged man with sweat on his forehead. Gong Zuxiu, who was usually carefree and unruly, was now huddled aside like a quail, trying to reduce his presence.

Jiang Fu swallowed his saliva from time to time, and his eyes couldn't help looking outside the yard.

The middle-aged man with a dignified face walked with his hands behind his back in the yard where Yan Chengdao lived before, and his eyes were like substance, constantly scanning it.

He obviously didn't release any breath, and he even deliberately restrained his own breath to the extreme, but the people around him were all silent.

As the lights flickered, the middle-aged man stopped and waved back, "Li Fu, come and take a look!"

A man wearing full armor, almost covering his face, stepped forward, came to the side of the middle-aged man, and looked in the direction the middle-aged man pointed.

"What did you see?"

"Reporting to the county magistrate, the murderer only used one move, killing people and destroying houses, and it only took a breath."

County magistrate Sima Zongheng nodded, "It really only took one move, and it only took a breath, and under the nose of Yan Chengdao, he was able to leave calmly after killing people. He is quite capable!"

The armored man responded with silence. He was not a talkative person. In such a situation, he would not care whether his silence would make the county magistrate feel embarrassed.

"Your son and Nangong Nei are working together, so he should be safe, but it will be difficult to catch this person!"

Chen Lifu nodded, "He is useless!"

Sima Zongheng shook his head and smiled, "That's not what I meant. Your son is actually good and I like his personality. He just had bad luck this time!"

"This person is really difficult. We have used many methods, even using divination, but still have no results, as if this person does not exist in this world at all." Chen Lifu frowned, "This is not a method that ordinary people can have!"

"I have also used methods to look at the residual soul of this Linghe, but there is no useful information. That person acted too quickly. The only thing that can be confirmed is that the person who acted was Huang Ji, because the biggest obsession of the residual soul of the Linghe is to kill Huang Ji!" Sima Zongheng looked down at the bloody pit in front of him.

This Linghe is also miserable. He has worked hard to cultivate to the fourth realm. As long as he stays in Linghe Temple honestly, he can live for at least a few hundred years. Now, he is dead without even a slag left.

"But this is unreasonable. Huang Ji was just an ordinary disciple in Linghe Temple. How could he have such ability? Just relying on the relic of the strange dragon? Impossible. That thing, apart from making him more unlike a human, is actually just like that. Besides, how can he turn the dragon soul into his own use so quickly?" Chen Lifu couldn't understand.

"It is indeed unreasonable. And why did this person suddenly attack the resident of the Fire Fox Sect and even kill a Taoist? Who gave him the courage to do such a thing?" Sima Zongheng frowned. This was also something he couldn't figure out.

The more high-profile, the more he didn't know how to restrain himself, the faster he died. Did Huang Ji become so arrogant just because his strength reached the master level?

But looking at his actions, such behavior seems to be inconsistent with him. In order to plan the strange dragon, he did not hesitate to stay in Yanghe County and lie dormant with Yan Chengyun for several years. This kind of patience is definitely not comparable to ordinary people.

In fact, in his opinion, both Yan Chengyun and Huang Ji are talents. Their talents may not be top-notch and cannot compare with those top geniuses, but such mentality is definitely rare in the world.

If such people are really allowed to step into the Grandmaster level, they will definitely become a powerful figure.

Not necessarily worse than Yan Zhen!

Sima Zongheng turned his head and looked at Jiang Taiqing, "Come here!"

His tone was very gentle, without the pretentious majesty of his superiors, but it was this calm attitude that put Jiang Taiqing under great pressure.

The governor of a county is the uncrowned king of a county. His power is already the top one in Xining County. In addition, his cultivation as a top Grandmaster is enough to make him run rampant in Xining County.

He may be afraid of one of the transcendent forces, but fear does not mean fear. In fact, those who he fears, how can they not be afraid of him?

"Mr. County Magistrate!"

"You went to Yanghe County with Chen Xiao, and you also communicated with Nangong Nei. You participated in this matter. What do you think?"

Jiang Taiqing was panicked. He wanted to say directly that he had no opinion, but looking at the gentle eyes of the county magistrate, he couldn't speak.

So, Jiang Taiqing made up his mind, "There may be other forces behind Huang Ji!"

"Oh?" Sima Zongheng laughed, "Your own opinion, or your Fu Zun's opinion?"

Jiang Taiqing naturally wouldn't say it was Fu Zun's opinion, and Nangong Nei did not say this. If it was Fu Zun who said this, it would be troublesome if something went wrong.

"It's my own opinion."

Sima Zongheng nodded, but didn't let him explain the reason. He just picked it up gently, put it down gently, and asked, "What did Nangong Nei do before he left?"

"Ah?" Jiang Taiqing was stunned. Are these two questions related? What does the county magistrate mean by this? Why does the target seem to have shifted to Fu Zun?

"The Lord of the Mansion did not do anything. He was at home when the riot broke out here."

"Don't think too much. I'm just asking. I don't have any doubts about your Lord of the Mansion." Sima Zongheng raised his hand and patted Jiang Taiqing on the shoulder.

"There are more than a dozen palaces in Xining County, but Nangong Nei is the master of the palace that I admire the most. Maybe he is not the strongest among those palace masters, but his ability is definitely top-notch!"

He looked at Jiang Taiqing again, "Did you know that I tried to transfer him to the county seat three times, but he refused!"

The sweat on Jiang Taiqing's forehead became more intense. What's the point of saying this? Master Fu, please come back quickly. He really can't stay with this person!

As if hearing his call, several people in the courtyard suddenly raised their heads and looked outside the city.

The first person to look up was the county governor Sima Zongheng, followed by Chen Lifu in armor, and then an inconspicuous old man with gray beard standing in the corner of the courtyard.

As for the others, they just watched the Sheriff and others raise their heads, and then followed them. Although most of them couldn't see anything at all, when the Shangguan raised his head, you just had to look up. Otherwise, you don’t really need to see it clearly!

"Let's go! Let's go take a look!"

Sima Zongheng turned his head and said to Chen Lifu, and then the two of them stepped out and disappeared.

Until then, the old man standing in the corner, who had almost never spoken a word, whispered softly: "Don't panic, the Po Kongzhou is back!"
