The Retirement of the Demon Lord

Although Gongliang Junyi was reluctant, he still went to Shao Mansion first.

He somewhat understands Wei Xingchao's approach, as long as he makes a move, whether he voluntarily or not, it will be in vain for the rest of his life. Killing a court-appointed official is a capital offense, and there will be no other way than to join forces with Wei Xingchao.

He didn't want to commit **** and crime, but his wife and children were in the hands of others, so he didn't dare to disobey his orders. Who would have thought that his wife and children would be coerced in Nanjing City, and they were still from the East Factory, so it was hard to guard against it!

Shao Mansion, which once had a wonderful scenery, now has no tiles left, only charred ruins.

In the early morning, Gongliang Junyi left the gate beam that would not collapse before he left. When he came back, it had been removed by the cleaning staff, and the charred "Shao Fu" plaque was thrown on the rubble in the courtyard where the debris was piled up.

Gongliang Junyi glanced at the plaque one more time. The door number of the Dongji Factory that he had seen just now became similar to it in his mind...

Wei Xingchao is pushing the Dongji Factory to a point of no return... and how can he save it?

People come and go in the ruins, except for the handymen arranged to clean up the site, the Jinyiwei and Litong of the Gongwei Division account for the majority. Although Wei Xingchao filed a lawsuit against the emperor to close the case, the personnel had not notified him to take it back. There were still a few factory guards at the scene searching the ashes to see if there were any missing clues.

Gongliang Junyi's attention quickly turned to a man standing in the collapsed west wing. His black clothes that he still wears during the day, with a black vest and light armor over his head, and a black scarf with thunder patterns covering his face, are particularly conspicuous among the Jinyiwei and the factory guards.

The shadow guards of the Shadow City are either low-key and hard to find, or they are so conspicuous.

The composition of the Shadow City Palace is relatively complicated, and even his father-in-law is not completely clear about it. Only know that it is roughly divided into two components: private work and public work. Private work refers to the secret guards who do not disclose their identities. They can be lurkers in any gang of any organization, the eyes and ears of the emperor. Public work refers to the dark guards who openly represent the shadow city.

The number of dark guards in this batch of public work is unknown, but the number is definitely much less than that of the Gong Guard Division and Dongchang. After all, the Shadow Metropolis Mansion is mainly doing dirty work for the emperor. Even the boss of the Shadow Metropolis Mansion, "Wu Ming", has not seen his real body. There must be many secret guards working in private.

But as the representatives of the Shadow Metropolitan Government in public handling of official affairs, these dark guards are all good players.

Among them, the most famous public work is also the one sent by the Shadow Metropolitan Government to be in charge of this case that the emperor attaches great importance to.

One of the three deputy leaders of the Shadow Metropolis, Du Ming.

"Master Gongliang is worthy of the pillar of the East Factory. He just left on the front foot and came back on the back foot. Are you looking for me?"

The people in Yingdu Mansion have always been alert, Gongliang Junyi has just approached behind Du Ming, Du Ming has already looked back, his eyes that can't see emotional waves seem to be ruthless.

"No... that's right, come and see if this landslide has anything to do with the case." Gongliang Junyi was a little guilty. He asked himself that he had been upright and upright for half his life, but today he was forced to do evil things, and the seven-foot man's waist was a little stiff. Not straight, "I wonder if Lord Duming has seized it?"

"I didn't find any direct evidence for the case. But in my opinion, this landslide may not be a natural disaster."

"How do you say it?" Gongliang Junyi was said by Du Ming, and the soul of investigating the case was awakened in his heart, and he was very interested. It actually suppressed the guilt in my heart for a while.

"This ground fissure stretches from the wing room to a compound on the east side that has been vacant for many years. The owner of the compound has been missing for many years, and nothing can be found. I don't know if it is a coincidence. Also, the mountain is usually broken into a straight line, but it can be slightly curved. . But here it is from south to north, and then there is a sudden turn to go east, and it is divided into two right angles and turned in different directions, which is unreasonable.”

Gongliang Junyi nodded again and again, and he also felt that the place was full of doubts.

"Lord Du Ming is right, and I am also deeply puzzled. From this point of view, this place is more like a collapsed underground passage. This is a secret room, with two different secret passages on both sides. It can be explained in this way. It can understand why the ground fissure does not form a line, and it can also explain why the ground fissure extends to the open courtyard in the east." Gongliang Junyi said.

"It's a pity that most of the buildings collapsed in that compound. Even if there was a secret passage, they were buried in it, and the proof cannot be recovered." Du Ming sighed.

"Clear out all the collapsed debris, maybe you can find clues. But this can't be done in a short time, and the time given by the emperor is far from enough." Gongliang Junyi and Du Ming walked to the turning point of the ground rift. , squatted down and knocked on the uneven rocky ground to feel the origin of these stones.

"Master Gongliang has a high opinion, and a hero sees the same thing." Du Ming praised.

"Where where..."

"Lord Gongliang, you see it's almost time for lunch, isn't it..."

The two walked together on top of the collapsed gravel for dozens of meters. Gongliang Junyi talked about what he cared about, and forgot the purpose of his coming here, and was "reminded" by a factory guard behind him. Just suddenly woke up.

At this time, they came to a place with only a few of them, which was the best place to start.

He looked up at the sky, the sun was rising, the coldness in the morning dissipated, and there was really not much time left for him...

Gongliang Junyi took out the brocade box in his arms, his eyes were full of struggles, and he was anxious to think about how to give a two-way solution.

"What is in Lord Gongliang's hand?" Du Ming's sharp eyes ~www.readwn.com~ turned to look at the box in Gongliang Junyi's hand, and asked suspiciously.

Gongliang was handsome and upright in his life. For the first time, his back was covered in white sweat, and he clenched his hands tightly so that the hand holding the brocade box would not tremble slightly.

"Nothing..." No matter what he did, it was the best policy not to make Du Ming's heart vigilant. Gongliang Junyi pretended to be generous, and opened the brocade box to reveal a black pill inside, "It's just food for hunger, not anything precious. stuff."

"Suwen Wei Changgong is very interested in medicinal pills. I didn't expect that Dongchang could make elixir instead of food. It's really amazing." Du Ming seemed to be very interested in pills.

Gongliang Junyi handed over the brocade box when he heard the words, Du Ming curiously took out the elixir and held it up, smelled it, and put it in the sunlight to look closely.

"Since it's not a precious thing, can you send me one for details?"

"Of course..." Gongliang Junyi's eyes were inseparable from the dark elixir shining under the sun, and he was fascinated.

Shouldn't it be so easy to let Du Ming eat it...

Du Ming lifted the veil in the next instant, and without hesitation, put the Dan Wan into his mouth.

"No..." Gongliang Junyi subconsciously reached out his hand to stop him, but there seemed to be a voice in his heart to stop him. He put down his hand and watched Du Ming swallow the pill with relish, a stern look on his face.

"The taste is good, and the things you make in the East Factory still take the taste into consideration. If I were to change to Gongweisi, I wouldn't have any idea of ​​trying it." Du Ming teased.

Seeing Gongliang Junyi's face getting darker, Du Ming continued: "Why, Lord Gongliang's face is so bad?"

"Nothing..."

"Shouldn't you still be thinking, when did I die of poisoning?" Du Ming suddenly smiled coldly, the corners of his eyes raised.

Gongliang Junyi shuddered, his reaction was quick, and he took a step behind him, holding the sword with one hand, staring at Du Ming coldly, in case the other party saw through his evil deeds and counterattacked at any time!
