Volume 2 Breaking into the Imperial Capital and Dancing the Demons Chapter 55 Liu Nansheng
Generally speaking, the cultivators in the Night World include human monks, all kinds of monsters, descendants of the Witch Dao, etc., unless there are special circumstances, most of them are usually relatively low-key. But there are always exceptions to everything, and Liu Nansheng is an extremely high-profile monster.
It's not because he likes to show off prototypes, or to show off his magic and raise his arms and shout "Come and see!"
No, he's not like that.
His high profile is on the other hand. After other monsters have infiltrated human society, they are trying to make their lives ordinary, and it is best to look more ordinary than ordinary people. But Liu Nansheng is different, he is not afraid of being noticed, and even enjoys the feeling of the spotlight on his body.
He is a willow tree that has become a demon for five hundred years, and if you add the time before becoming a demon, his lifespan is probably more than a thousand years.
This long time allowed him to accumulate a lot of wisdom and experience, and learned all kinds of knowledge from humans. It likes to blend in with the crowd, obey the rules of human beings, and play this game of experiencing life.
The existence of certain giants in human society is always respected, and this kind of person seems to be very successful and remarkable. - At least, in the eyes of Liu Nansheng at the beginning.
Therefore, according to the rules of human beings, he used the wisdom he learned from human beings to accumulate a lot of wealth in human society, owned a lot of industries, and became a big man in the limelight.
Wanbao Building, where various treasures are auctioned, is one of the properties under his name. Unlike other industries, Wanbao Lou is only open to the night world, and ordinary humans are not accepted, no matter how wealthy. Whether you are qualified to enter Wanbao Building or not has nothing to do with money.
Shencheng, Lu's beak.
Shencheng has been rated as the world's first-tier city in human society, and is a central city integrating economic, financial, trade, shipping and technological innovation. In addition to these, there are many other frighteningly big names, in a word, the city is strong, very prosperous, and not only very strong, very prosperous.
Lujiabei is an urban area located on the bank of the Huangpu River in Shencheng, facing the Bund across the river, and is one of the prosperous areas of Shencheng.
Liu Nansheng is on the upper floor of a certain building in Lujiabe, standing in front of the transparent floor-to-ceiling windows, looking outward at the rolling Huangpu River, and the colorful city that never sleeps on the other side of the river, and the tall tower known as the pearl stands in the city that never sleeps.
Liu Nan has been a demon for five hundred years, and has changed into an elegant middle-aged man in his forties. At this time, his elegant demeanor was mixed with a little boredom, and there was a hint of melancholy between his eyebrows.
This is because half a month ago, a loose cultivator who photographed the treasure Seven Star Tree in his Wanbao Building was intercepted and killed on the way back, and the Seven Star Tree was nowhere to be found.
Although the inn has taken over to investigate and arrest the murderer, as the owner of Wanbaolou, there was a customer who was intercepted and killed on the way home after buying his own goods, and Liu Nansheng also sent people to investigate the incident. He specially invited Mr. Yi, a well-known man in the night world, who was very good at identifying 'how the deceased was killed'.
After Mr. Yi examined the corpse of Ling Xuan Daoren, he came to a conclusion that the wound was not caused by a cat's claw, although it was very similar, it was still not, and it was more like a wound caused by deliberately imitating a cat's claw with a special technique. He thinks it's more likely that it's a fox claw camouflage.
When he heard that the inn judged that Moge was the murderer, Mr. Yi found Moge's information through Liu Nansheng, shook his head, and said, "No, it shouldn't be him." There was not a trace of thunder power left in Ling Xuan's corpse. ”
"Is it possible that in order to hide his identity, Mog deliberately did not use the Thunder Charm to avoid being found out?" asked Liu Nansheng.
"There are not many exercises that can drive thunder in the night world, but there are also many, and there is little difference in the death caused by the murder of each thunder family. If it was simply to kill Ling Xuan Daoist with thunder, it would be more difficult to find out than to kill him. Mr. Yi expressed his speculation.
Liu Nansheng was taught, and when he turned around, he sent people to collect the information of various fox demons, and with his strong financial background and various channels, Liu Nansheng quickly got the information of Bai Sanjie. This information has been screened layer by layer: all fox demons - fox demons whose Dao is high enough to kill Ling Xuan Daoist - fox demons who have the time to commit crimes - fox demons who have motives to commit crimes. In the end, the rest of the people who were screened were the three sisters Bai.
Practiced on the Cangshan Mountain for three hundred years, misbehaved, often went down the mountain to suck people to suck the essence, and accidentally hooked up with the Lich Clan a hundred years ago, and ten years later became the personal follower of the Lich Clan's great witch Wu Zong, Wu Zong often sent it to do some assassination and espionage covert missions, in addition, it is rumored to have a disgraceful personal relationship with Wu Zong.
Liu Nansheng recalled that the Huangpu River and the sleepless city outside the window became hazy, and it was not until the third sister Bai was brought to it that it turned around and looked at the white fox lying on the ground with a haggard posture.
"Are you the third sister Bai?" Liu Nansheng bent down slightly and approached the white fox.
The white fox raised his eyelids and glanced at him, but did not speak.
Liu Nansheng straightened up, put aside the others, walked behind the desk, and sat down on the rosewood chair.
The white fox squinted and glanced at Liu Nansheng, and saw two words hanging on the wall behind him: The willow branches hang softly and close to the ground, and the breeze caresses me to the south. The handwriting is clear and strong, and the wind god is handsome, I don't know which master's handwriting.
Liu Nansheng noticed the white fox's eyes, also glanced back, and said to her: "I wrote these two characters, and the pen is not strong enough, so I smiled." ”
The white fox snorted softly and did not answer.
Liu Nansheng said slowly: "I heard that you were seriously injured in Shanggu City, so I specially sent someone to invite you and prepared some pills for healing. ”
The white fox was still silent, Liu Nansheng took out a small bottle from the small box on the table, got up and poured out a medicinal pill the size of a soybean grain, and handed it to the white fox's mouth. The white fox glanced at him, then licked the pill into his mouth and ate it.
In a moment, Bai Sanjie felt that her seriously injured internal organs were comfortably nourished by the medicinal power, and most of the pain was gone. I don't know what kind of precious medicine pill he fed me, Bai Sanjie thought so, stretched her waist, and turned into a beauty again, but she had no clothes and her body was exposed.
Seeing her like this, Liu Nansheng frowned slightly, returned to the wooden chair, Bai Sanjie's heart turned, she walked behind Liu Nansheng with a smile, her chest rested on the back of the chair, her soft arms wrapped around Liu Nansheng's chest, and she exhaled in his ear: "Benefactor, you have found the slave family, but do you want the slave family to explain the assassination of Ling Xuan Daoren?"
Liu Nansheng was extremely disgusted in his heart, but he couldn't help it, and said: "If the girl is coerced to do this, I, Liu Nansheng, am willing to testify and exonerate, and I should also place the girl in the future, and I will not be retaliated against by the wicked." Liu Nansheng used words to stabilize the heart of the third sister. But he was right, with his deep pockets and strength, although it was not enough to compete with the Lich Clan, it was still easy to hide himself.
"Haha. Bai Sanjie laughed twice and said with a slight mockery: "Don't you just want me to confess my guilt." Your guest Liu Nansheng was killed with a baby taken from your house, and if you ignore it, although it is nothing more than a fault, it is not good to ignore it like this. That's why you have to personally send someone to find out the truth and find me, the murderer. In this way, you Liu Nansheng will definitely be praised and praised, and more people will be willing to patronize this Wanbaolou business. Her chest rubbed against the back of Liu Nansheng's erect neck, and said quietly: "Is what the slave family said right?"
Liu Nansheng didn't make a sound, and Bai Sanjie seemed to sigh behind him, and said: "That's it, I've had enough days of working hard for him, and I don't know how far this chaos will go." I thought that I died in the upper valley when I assassinated Huangliang for him, and a hundred years of love were cut off from there. She let go of her arms, walked to the opposite side of the desk, and said solemnly to Liu Nansheng: "I am willing to say everything, but I hope you can say what you say." ”
Liu Nansheng promised: "Girl, please rest assured, Liu will protect you thoroughly." ”
