Chapter 445: Pursuit
Pei Ziyun said, Li Zhengyuan listened with a hint of joy, he had heard that Zhenjun was good at prohibiting it, and this time he quickly stepped up when he received the order, and then he was appreciative.
Although this appreciation is not beneficial to oneself, it can make one's mission more convenient.
"Zhenjun, what happened last time has come to an end. Li Zhengyuan presented an excerpt, Pei Ziyun took it, and the title on the excerpt was the result of Tong Lin.
Pei Ziyun's eyes flashed, and he took a closer look, Tong Lin committed suicide by poisoning, his wife and daughter hanged, and his relatives took him into custody, just waiting for Pei Ziyun to deal with it.
Pei Ziyun looked very satisfied with this result, read it carefully, was slightly surprised, seemed to disbelieve, and then came back to his senses, slightly depressed, and asked: "Two thousand taels?
Li Zhengyuan glanced at Pei Ziyun: "Yes, for the sake of the official body, I had to ask a nephew of my family to take care of it, except for the necessary official clothes, all the goods were discounted into only two thousand taels, and the house was rented, not considered family property." ”
After saying this, Li Zhengyuan stopped talking, Pei Ziyun listened, smiled to himself, and waved his hand: "In this case, this matter is over, and those who should be placed will be settled, and this matter will end here." ”
"Yes!" Li Zhengyuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, with this sentence, there is no need to even announce Tong Lin's crimes, and he can turn around in the future.
Pei Ziyun saw it, and he didn't care, if he regretted it, it was not at all, his hero, my enemy, my hero, his enemy, Tong Lin wanted to kill himself, then he had to end up like this, otherwise, the crowd would swarm, who could stand it?
Ignoring the matter immediately, he turned his face and asked the inspector: "Have you all arrived?" ”
The patrol was in a hurry, and he said: "Zhenjun, everything is arranged according to your requirements, and the good hunters in the Sanzhou Yamen have been dispatched to track the traces of the anti-thieves." ”
"Although Lu Bingzu refused to confess, we still found traces. ”
The inspector paused: "The housekeeper explained that the traitor Li Cheng left before the arrival of the imperial army, if there is no accident, he went to this part of Dongyuan Mountain, as long as he is willing to mobilize the messenger to search and arrest, he will not be able to escape." ”
said with a little confidence, tracking and arresting, these head catchers and inspectors are experts, and they regained lost territory with the imperial court, and at this time they all showed twelve points of spirit and wanted to earn credit.
"Not bad" Pei Ziyun nodded, very satisfied, it was a little unexpected to find out so quickly, but it was reasonable.
Back then, the Marquis of Jibei was only able to track down himself all the way to chase and kill, but he only broke the net by killing himself.
After a moment of silence, he understood what he was thinking, and then said to Li Zhengyuan: "You lead the Daolu Division to cooperate, and if you find something, you will immediately investigate, and once it is confirmed, it will be summoned immediately." ”
"Yes" Li Zhengyuan immediately responded, at this moment, a wind swept by, a flash of lightning in the sky, and then an earth-shattering thunder fell, startling everyone to change color, and someone shouted in the distance: "It's raining, it's raining......"
"Life is three feet, the world is difficult to hide!" Pei Ziyun looked at the spring rain and smiled slightly, now it is his turn to use the six-door system, in fact, there are people from the Daolu Division to cooperate with the communication, not inferior to the police system, even if the blind Taoist is good at concealment, under the whole country, what can he do?
Higashigaki Mountain
With a spring rain, the night gradually became quiet, the trees on the mountain grew fine leaves, and the grass on the hillside was also green, but the ground was damp and it was difficult to walk.
The silence was broken by the footsteps of "da, da", and the head catcher was in front, the first soldier followed, and the Taoist officer mixed in it, carrying the oil lamp.
"This time it's a big fish, if we catch it, we can all be promoted and make a fortune. The inspector heard one of the officers speak louder and immediately reprimanded.
A mountaintop
A temple, the walls of the mountain gate and the courtyard have collapsed. There was a broken plaque on the door, and I couldn't even read the words, and at this time the wooden fence in front of the shrine had been torn down to light a fire to keep warm, and a bonfire was lit.
The blind man and the scribe were burning a fire and roasting a pheasant, when a bird flew by.
"Wow wow" two bird calls disrupted the silence, and the blind man suddenly stood up and listened carefully: "Not good"
"Your Majesty, what's the matter?" asked the scribe, who also stood up at this time.
"We are originally a demon clan, although there is no so-called language of ten thousand beasts, but simple information can still be heard, there is a crowd under the mountain, I am afraid that someone is chasing after us. ”
When the scribe heard this, his eyebrows couldn't help frowning: "Could it be that King Lu is chasing and killing? King Lu will not give up when he is defeated, and he will kill us?"
"No" The blind man looked into the distance, only to see the mountains not far away, and the bottom of the mountain was dim, and there was a faint fire, and hurriedly said: "Put out the bonfire, we will leave immediately." ”
Not long after the two left, an errand pounced in, stretched out his hand and touched it to be warm: "Although the fire on the ground is extinguished, it is still warm, and it hasn't been gone for long, chase after it." ”
With the order, the head catcher and the tolerance immediately pounced, and the signal was transmitted, and in a blink of an eye, the figure under the mountain shook, and the army, the head catcher who was good at tracking and arresting cooperated with the Taoist officer, and searched in the mountains and forests.
"Plop" with the disturbance, the birds in the forest are disturbed and fly away.
"There are no traces on this side. ”
"Not on this side. ”
Communicating one by one, the head catcher led the hound, constantly sniffing the smell and tracking forward, turning Dongyuan Mountain into a tight net.
Pei Ziyun was on the hill not far away at this time, and there was also a bonfire, which could be seen clearly.
Seeing that the remaining space was pressed layer by layer, in an orderly manner, and everyone also spent a lot of effort to use iron whistles, torches, and Taoist officials, Pei Ziyun fell into deep thought.
"Zhenjun?" just thought, Zheng Zhengyuan followed a few soldiers and greeted not far away.
"Come here!" Pei Ziyun called, "What kind of charter are you?"
Zheng Zhengyuan followed in and said: "Zhenjun, this is actually a small trick, everyone has torches, it seems to be a scare to the snake, but we are officials, not thieves, we don't need to cover up our whereabouts, and so many people can't hide it." ”
"Now there are many benefits, the other side is only two or three people, the attack torch is extinguished, it exposes the target, even if it is not extinguished, it is useless, I have stipulated the regulations, each squad has its own path and forward range, and if something goes wrong, it is the thief who does it. Zheng Zhengyuan smiled ruthlessly and said.
This is talent, Pei Ziyun couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "If it is a talent, it is not a loss to be a person who can be mentioned by the Daolu Division in his previous life, thinking about it, he listened to Zheng Zhengyuan continue: "By pulling the net, we have determined the approximate direction, but there are three points in the approximate direction, which cannot be determined, but as long as we search one by one, we will definitely be able to search out, but it will take a little time, and the mountain is still too big." ”
"Huh?" Pei Ziyun looked at Zheng Zhengyuan: "You mean, our current strength can only search along this mountain point by point, can't we search in place at one time?"
Zheng Zhengyuan responded: "Yes, Zhenjun,"
"And the other party moves quickly, and the other party seems to have a power different from the Taoist, and has a tacit understanding with nature, exposing our pursuit, if we can't catch it once, we have to repeat the process. ”
"Different from our strength?" Pei Ziyun whispered, this time when he came to the mountains and forests, he had a feeling that some of the beasts in the forest seemed to be contaminated with a little demonic energy.
Now that seven days have passed, using three thousand elites and the Daolu Division, it can only be forced to this extent, but this is enough.
"Huh" Pei Ziyun thought for a moment, looked at the mountains and forests, and said, "I understand the situation, wait for me for a while, or I have a way." ”
Zheng Zhengyuan listened, took a look, and stood honestly on the side.
With a slight luck, Pei Ziyun sank his heart, his mind was connected, but in a trance, he came to a space.
The space is still in the void, and the original crumbling stone wall has been repaired again, and it feels bigger, only to see a dense crowd of statues.
Looking closely, I saw that some of the statues had been completely petrified, and there was no longer any life, but Cheng Yuanzi and the eleven new statues still stubbornly retained a little.
However, from time to time, they float out a little bright spot, and they are absorbed and transformed by the space, and it is only a matter of time before they are extracted and become real stone sculptures.
"Fortunately, I'm the one who has gained the memory of the Demon Emperor. Pei Ziyun's eyes were gloomy, and the space responded immediately, only to hear a "ding", and the statue shook.
Cheng Yuanzi still had a little spirit left, and at this time he couldn't help but take the initiative to move, forming a connection with other statues, and twelve star points faintly appeared in the air, forming constellations, although incomplete, but with rhythm.
"It's you" Pei Ziyun sneered, stretched out his hand, and the constellation immediately vibrate, and there was an echo in the distance.
"Found it. Pei Ziyun opened his eyes and pointed in one direction: "Check at this point!"
Zheng Zhengyuan's heart was shocked, and he observed carefully, but just now there was just a little fluctuation, and there was no mana at all, this is to find it?
This was beyond Zheng Zhengyuan's cognition, and he was shocked in his heart, but his mouth responded: "Yes!"
"Quick, follow me, Zhenjun has an order, immediately search the north slope of Dongyuan Mountain. ”
With the order, I saw that I was searching for the armor soldiers all the way, the tolerance, the six doors to catch the head, and the Taoist officials, immediately turned to the Beiyang slope and ran, and the net was suddenly tightened.
Beiyangpo Cave
The blind man and the scribe hid in the cave and rested for a while, covered in mud and water, and their clothes were torn by tree branches, which was the result of repeated sieges and suppressions.
The fire was burning, bringing a hint of warmth, roasting a hare, and there were already torches in the distance.
The blind man was eating meat, and at this time he had a sense, his face changed greatly, and he stood up, and his eyes looked faint.
"Your Majesty, what's the matter?" asked the scribe, who was also eating, watching the blind man's movements.
The blind man closed his eyes and was silent at this time, and sensed into the void: "No, someone has located us through the nebula, this is the power that only the high-level demon clan can use. ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to the southeast: "It's right there, only four miles away from us." ”
The scribe only felt a chill surging up, and the hairs on his body exploded: "This is impossible, even if it is a demon clan, there are only a few people with this authority." ”
"It's not possible in normal times. The blind man's face changed: "If it is the origin that absorbs some of our secrets, it is possible - Pei Ziyun is here." ”
As he spoke, he suddenly turned to look at the scribe and said, "Du Qing"
This is a very formal name, and the scribe should have said: "Minister"
"This matter is too important, it is related to the foundation and secret of our demon clan in the future, and we must confirm it, even if the price is very large. The blind man said, already with a fierce look.
