Oracle of Terra

[So that's the case, then before starting the investigation, let's take them to the Zhaixing Building to discuss the future plan. 】

"Has His Majesty agreed?"

Zuo Le knew that his father and Lord Lian Feng went to the court this morning to request a thorough investigation of Prince Zhen's mansion, but he didn't expect to discuss countermeasures so soon. Could it be that the situation has changed?

[Of course I agree, but the situation is a bit unsatisfactory. Come here, your Uncle Zhou is here too. 】

"Uncle Zhou, I understand"

Zhou Shu Zuo Le, one of his father's friends, also knew it well, so he wouldn't be surprised if he wanted to investigate this matter with Qin Tianjian.

"It seems that before going to thoroughly investigate the traces, we can still have a good meal."

"However, if we search together with Qin Tianjian, the royal family should be involved in this matter. It's better for Mr. Telles to cover it up."

"Cover up, then change your face."

Saying that, Telles turned into Lin Xinian's appearance, the black-haired and plain Li Boli, with Lateran's cross pendant hanging around his neck, coupled with the priest's attire, and his calm and peaceful expression, No matter how you look at it, you look like a traveling priest in Lateran.

However, it is quite unusual for a priest to appear in the hinterland of Dayan.

Although the superficial relationship between Dayan and Rutland is indeed okay.

——At the same time · Zhaixing Building

"Okay, let's wait for my good son to pay the bill. You order a good dish and call someone to come?"

"Almost, but whether senior brother is willing to accept it or not is a question. After all, it should not be a good thing to involve Hui Jie's child in the court. Brother Zuo, you have also seen it."

"Yeah, those bastards didn't react when they heard Xie Chong. Instead, they talked a lot because of the addition of a royal family. It's really annoying!"

Zuo Xuanliao just raised his hand, glanced at the table, thought for a while that the table was probably not as strong as the beams and columns in the palace wall, so he also stopped his hand.

"This is also helpless. The border of Dayan is far away from the capital. The peace of the soldiers fighting is just a piece of news to the officials in the capital. In fact, the battlefield is full of iron and blood. There is also the line of defense filled by the mountain of corpses and the sea of ​​blood, they simply cannot understand it normally."

Zhou Kui shook his head, his face full of helplessness.

"Because it's too peaceful, brother Zuo, sometimes I even feel that if this evil thing is a big deal, it can make those people sober."

"Old Zhou, you can't talk nonsense. It's the ordinary people in the capital who will suffer the ultimate disaster in the outbreak of evil spirits. It's better to find out and suppress the development of the matter to a minimum."

"That's the same thing. Forget it, let's drink first. After someone comes over, discuss the regulations on the investigation of Prince Zhen's Mansion. I hope that senior brother can come over in person. After all, that kid Hui Jie doesn't know much about officialdom. .”

After the two drank some wine in a muffled voice, they also welcomed the visit of Telles and others.

After Zuo Le saw Zhou Kui, he first bowed and saluted.

"Master Supervisor."

"Okay, okay, don't be so restrained, Xiao Le, I have such a good relationship with your father, I'm not very happy that you are so born."

"Temporary etiquette is still necessary."

"You are rigid like your mother. I still remember her expression when our brothers brought your father back. It's really unforgettable."

"What are you doing with this pot? Brother Te is here too? It's a different face today."

"Your son told me to deceive others. After all, there are still some problems with Sarkaz walking around swaggeringly. This is the supervisor of Qin Tianjian, so let me introduce myself."

The black-haired Li Boli youth smiled slightly.

"Ursas Sochi Duke's staff--Teres Kshulinada, this time accepted a friend's request to participate in the investigation of Xie Chong's incident, and also accepted the entrustment from General Zuo to assist Xie Chong's incident."

"Oh, I have admired your name for a long time. I didn't expect that Your Disaster Warlock has a spell that can change your appearance. I'm sorry, but I haven't seen those incarnations of the old beasts. The students from Shu said they were going to the border gate, but the other two didn’t see it.”

"It's impossible for them to run around in this capital city. They are living in peace. Mr. Zhou doesn't have to worry about them causing any trouble."

"I'm not worried about this. My lord Tai Tuo and I have passed the anger. In this regard, I trust their judgment. Although Qin Tianjian will remain neutral in the court situation, if it involves some major national affairs, it will be safer. , but considering that my senior brother is also here, it should be a situation worth reassuring."

Zhou Kui replied with a smile, and the eyes that were barely opened reminded Telles of the phrase 'It's not easy to mess with squinting eyes'.

"Then let's start that search meeting while eating?"

"I still have to wait for someone else. The royal family who is coordinating this matter needs to be present. After all, the thorough investigation of Prince Zhen's Mansion still involves the royal family. After a while, the person will come. Let's eat and drink before then."

"Master Zhou, that's a good proposal, I like it."

Telles was not polite, and began to order dishes on the menu that he had tasted here before.

As for the girl Yan Qingfei, she doesn't eat and drink too much on weekdays, she also chooses her favorite food from the menu.

But Zuo Le felt something was wrong while ordering food.

After all, it is very rare to work with the royal family, and Zuo Le can't think of any royal family supervisor who will go smoothly if it involves evil spirits. After all, if it is just a decoration, it may also involve the royal family's face.

You must know that there are too few capable people in the current Dayan royal family.

Since the current His Majesty came to power, the influence of the royal family is not as good as before.

Zuo Le could even foresee what kind of tragedy the crown prince would have in the future.

After a long sigh, Zuo Le also frowned.

"What's the matter, Le'er, she doesn't look very happy."

"No, I'm just thinking about the direction of King Yan's power in the future. His Highness Chonghuan, how should I put it... His ability is slightly less than that of His Majesty today."

"I think Nephew Xian can be more straightforward. His Highness Chonghuan is a pussy with no ability. Judging from the matter of today's appointment, if he had not flinched because of His Majesty's sight at that time, but argued hard with reason, maybe this would be the case. The leadership of the matter will be entrusted to him.”

Zhou Kui felt a little pity, after all, there are too many mediocre people in the royal family today.

The most obvious one is the prince, who is indecisive, and many of his political ideas are immature. He is almost 30 years old but has not yet grown up. Zhou Kui feels that the future leadership of Dayan may become a courtier who supersedes the royal family.

This is not good.

But they have no obvious solution, if it is...

Some crazy thoughts flashed in Zhou Kui's mind, and then erased them from his mind.

Dayan has not yet fallen to this point, such thoughts are unnecessary.

"coming."

Zuo Xuanliao also smiled when he heard the footsteps coming to the door, the reawakened Beichenxing, and the eldest daughter's lunatic, he planned to engrave it in his mind like this.

"excuse me."

After Chen Huijie pushed open the door of the private room, she looked a little strange after seeing the people gathered here. After all, there was a very familiar guy sitting there who kept stuffing things into his mouth, and last night he gave himself a gift with a group of celestial masters. The white-robed celestial master stuffed with a bunch of presents was said to be the junior of the man beside him.

"Sure enough, it is duty bound, Lao Zhou."

"Right, this is much more capable than His Royal Highness Chonghuan."

"???"

Chen Huijie looked at the two people who started chatting suspiciously. She was called to follow by the man beside her.

"I heard that I came here with you on an urgent matter. How did it turn into a dinner? And why are you still here?"

"Officer Chen, there is indeed an urgent matter here, please come and help, anyway, sit down first, and order whatever you like,"

"Okay then, so what is it, I remember, Master Zhou?"

"You can actually call me Uncle Zhou."

"I'm not a celestial master."

Chen Yi's stern attitude could only make Zhou Kui sigh.

"Then Master Zhou will be Master Zhou, brother, you understand the matter, right?"

"Of course I understand that this matter is incumbent on the Tianshi Mansion, and I will help you."

Compared with when we met yesterday, Chen Qingyuan's complexion is much better, which also makes Zhou Kui very relieved.

"Senior brother, it's rare for you to work so hard. I always feel that this time Hui Jie came to the capital to revitalize you."

"Don't mention it, talk about the situation."

"Okay, okay, I won't tease you, Brother Zuo, let's start."

"no problem!"

Seeing this lineup, Zuo Xuanliao didn't have those aggressive guys, so it seems that His Majesty's ruling is somewhat interesting.

"The incident this time stems from three days ago, the little prince Fu Yi of Prince Zhen's Mansion stayed in Lianhong Street with his entourage Ke Lian. According to the investigation of the people under my command, they lingered in Lianhong Street for three days and did not leave. , but still maintain communication with Prince Zhen's mansion, the old prince is very tolerant to him, but this is not the point, the point is that on the night of his violent death, there were obviously many witnesses, but no one saw how Ke Lian died, especially Brother, have you seen it?"

"When I went to watch the excitement that day, the person had already died, and it took about a few minutes for the corpse to change."

Telles still remembered that it was quite lively at the time, but the panic and uneasiness spread, which made the demon wake up.

When the outbreak finally erupted, if he hadn't had quick eyesight and quick hands, the scope of the disaster would have expanded to several blocks. Thinking about those beautiful dancers not being torn to pieces by the demons, Telles felt that he had done a great deed for the enthusiastic citizens of the capital .

"Then. That's the point."

Zuo Xuanliao looked calm and serious.

"How did Ke Lian die on Lianhong Street?"

614. Proposal

"So this is for me to investigate the case?"

After a group of people chatted about the doubts about this evil corpse change, Chen Huijie finally got the answer she wanted. The person named Jing Huai who came to Chen's mansion that day, that is, her cheap uncle, assigned her to talk to The two court officials in front of them are going to investigate the incident about Xie Chong.

"How about it, Hui Jie, it should be your field of expertise?"

Zhou Kui likes her little nephew very much, and has great expectations for her abilities.

"The situation is not that simple. First of all, I don't know what Xie Chong is. Secondly, I don't know about some streets and local conditions in the capital. If a police officer wants to investigate some cases in depth, he needs at least some knowledge of the local area. Known investigations are a waste of time."

"If this is the case, I don't think you need to worry. If you are a local guide, you can ask Xiao Le and Chief Wei Yan. As for what kind of evil spirits are, you can ask Mr. Telles. If you want to talk about the current situation If someone in the capital has studied evil spirits deeply, then he must be ranked first."

"?"

Chen was a little puzzled. After all, she and Telles were old acquaintances. Why didn't she know that he still had some research on Xie Chong?

"Ahem, as a senior conjurer, it's not very strange to have researched things like demons, and the Ursus language is also plagued by border demons, and they have a common language. However, the names of these monsters are different in different regions, as for the research on demons, if you are interested, I can give you the whole life to practice."

Zhou Kui blushed a little after hearing Telles' answer.

"Mr. Telles, I hope you'd better not mess with evil spirits in the capital. Although I don't distrust your ability, judging from the rampant evil spirits, there are currently many doubts in the capital. If the doubts are not resolved, you If something comes out, I'm afraid some spearheads will be pointed at you, although Candle Holder will not make things difficult for us, who are ordered to do things, but foreigners like you, it's better not to be so exaggerated."

"Well, actually, I just want her to learn more about the dangers of demons themselves. Ah, I think of an obvious example, Officer Chen."

"?"

"You still remember the emperor's inner guards you dealt with in the snow field before."

"remember."

She still remembered that the first time she pulled out Chi Xiao was because she was fighting the emperor's inner guard.

Chen Qingyuan at the side silently glanced at his daughter, it was the first time he heard that his daughter had fought with the emperor's inner guard.

"Oh, the emperor's inner guard, that Huijie is quite powerful."

Zhou Kui was also slightly surprised.

"The power exercised by those internal guards is used through the power of demons sealed in the body. Although there is a subjective consciousness of human thinking, it is still the power of demons in general."

".........................."

Thinking of the distorted space, as if the pressure of absorbing the soul into it and destroying it, Chen Huijie's face was also solemn. If such a thing is hidden in the capital, then the problems they face may be much more serious than imagined .

"Of course, the one who came out in the lead is a secondary demon, so there's no need to be too nervous."

"Don't you think it will be more troublesome to come out later?"

Chen Huijie didn't understand why Telles could be so optimistic.

"That's not the case. After all, this incident is probably not caused by some evil spirits. It should be a man-made disaster."

"Man-made disaster?"

"Yes, someone is planning to use demons to do things."

"Oh? Your Excellency Telles judges so?"

Zhou Kui looked at Telles in surprise, wondering why he was so sure.

"After all, if it is true that the evil spirit itself is lurking in the capital and intends to expand a wave of disasters, then it is too bizarre. Or are you two so unconfident in Dayan's border defense?"

"Of course not. Dayan's evil defense line can be said to be the top of Terra. It is absolutely impossible for evil spirits to sneak into the interior from the border defense."
