Volume 1 First Acquaintance Chapter 6 Brother Lin fell from the sky

It turned out that the white ball of flowers was actually a "Brother Lin" who fell from the sky!

This Brother Lin is dressed in white, suave, with a pair of peach blossom eyes and eyebrows, as if he was born with no sense of distance, and the hook person wants to get close to him. But there is a frizzy trend between gestures, and it is really a pair of Pan An's skin with a pair of Li Kui's soul under it. I don't believe it, look at this person, he hurriedly stood up and picked up the bamboo fracture fan that fell to the ground with his slender and white hands, and didn't forget to rub his sore buttocks: "Hey, it really hurts..." Why are there so many people..."

Master Qin also walked over when he heard the movement: "Who are you, why did you trespass into the place where the crime occurred!"

Seeing that this man in white was dressed in an official uniform, he couldn't help but shrink a little: "I... I'm a demon hunter from out of town, and I unveiled a demon hunt list for catching a white ape demon, and I followed that demon here... Passing by this courtyard, I heard that there was a murder, maybe it was the evil demon..."As he spoke, he put on a posture of white crane with bright wings and gestured in front of Chang Ying, who looked the best to frighten, but was directly slapped off by Ling Yue's claws. "Hey! Broken palm... I saw that the main gate was guarded by officers and soldiers, so I climbed over the wall and came in to see. There are more people in this wall than outside..."

When Huang Wuye heard this, he said unhurriedly: "You are a demon hunter? The royal family has long put on a roster of demon hunters from all over the country in order to manage it. ”

Master Yuan on the side was secretly trembling when he heard this, and when he saw Huang Wuye glancing at him, he immediately looked away.

The white-clothed man waved his hand and smiled flatteringly: "Hey, I'm just a little demon hunter who is not famous, and this time I disturbed everyone by mistake, hahaha, don't be surprised, adults, I'll go first..."

"Say!" Huang Wuye retreated from his previous ruffianism, and his words were sonorous and powerful, not angry and arrogant.

"The villain Lin Gao, a person from Feng Gucheng, is unmarried in twenty five out of twenty this year, has a brother and an old mother, and makes a living by selling clothes!"

Huang Wuye gave Ambassador Gu a look, and Gu Yi turned around and walked out of the courtyard.

"Please trouble Lin Gongzi to stay with us for the time being, and when my subordinates come back, we will know if you are innocent. ”

Lin Gao hesitated slightly, but immediately changed to a dog-legged look: "It's easy to say, adults, how about I investigate the case with you, if this case is related to the demon I want to catch, and I catch the demon when I turn around, we will get half of the bonus, and those who see it will have a share!"

Huang Wuye didn't bother to pay attention to him, turned around and pulled Ling Yue towards other houses. Lin Gao followed behind him with an excited face.

"Eh, where are you from? ”

"Who lives in this house?"

"Yo, it's miserable, I look at the pile of corpses lying in the yard, what's wrong?"

...

At first, Ling Yue replied with two sentences, but later saw that he was really a little annoying, so he ignored him anymore. Lin Gao saw that there was no one to chat with him on the left and right, so he had to follow behind with a smile.

Ling Yue and Huang Wuye looked at the houses in the east and south carefully, but they still found nothing. Ling Yue couldn't help but sigh, there was nothing left and right to continue to investigate, so he planned to go and say goodbye to Master Qin and leave, and then make plans.

Everyone returned to the compound, but saw that Master Qin didn't know what to say with Master Yuan in the courtyard, Master Yuan smiled with bad intentions, Master Qin stopped talking when he saw them coming, and Master Yuan didn't shrink when Huang Wuye mentioned the roster of demon hunters just now, but looked like a villain, Ling Yue didn't feel a little strange.

"Master Qin, thank you for letting us come in today to investigate, and I've caused you trouble. Ling Yue respectfully bowed to Master Qin.

Master Qin didn't reply, waved his hand to signal them to take care of themselves, and walked towards the main hall with Master Yuan.

"Eh, you!" Huang Wuye couldn't bear this kind of indifference on the side, he just wanted to jump to his feet and say a few words but was stopped by Ling Yue, Master Yuan's ill-intentioned smile just now made Ling Yue feel a little uneasy in his heart, at this time, it is better to have more than one thing.

Several people stepped out of the small courtyard of Zhangfu one after another, and as soon as they went out, Lin Gao began to call out noisily: "Eh! Are you hungry! Let's go to the house around the corner to eat, the thief is delicious!" After speaking, he led the way by jumping in front.

After being hungry for a day, Ling Yue and Huang Wuye looked at each other for a while, and followed Lin Gao towards the restaurant. Ling Yue saw that Lin Gao was humming a little song in front of him and couldn't notice him, so he lowered his voice and asked Huang Wuye: "Fifth Master, could this matter have something to do with the white ape demon you are chasing?"

Huang Wuye shook his head, but raised his voice as if he had nothing to do: "The white ape demon I chased is not high in magic, and I will only be a simple girl on weekdays, and I can't handle this case..."

And Ling Yue, who was beside him, couldn't help but sigh after hearing this, he didn't even find a clue after surviving today...

Huang Wuye saw that his whole person was depressed, so he said: "Don't worry, how can this investigation be so fast." ”

Ling Yue nodded, grandma had an accident and he must not panic first, otherwise Changying... Just as he was thinking about it, he took Changying's hand and wanted to comfort him, but the hot temperature from his palm made Ling Yue panic.

Ling Yue hurriedly turned his head sideways to take a closer look at Chang Ying, only to find that the child's face was flushed, his eyes were clouded, and he was stunned and followed him as if he was unconscious. This kid has been silent since he entered the courtyard of Zhang's mansion, Ling Yue just thought that he was scared, so he didn't pay much attention to him, who would have thought that this kid actually had a high fever.

Ling Yue hurriedly picked up Changying, who was already a little swaying: "Fifth Master, I'm afraid this kid is scared today, and now the whole person is burning badly, I'll take him to the hospital first, and then I'll go to the temple tomorrow to find you." Without waiting for the fifth master to reply, he stumbled and ran to the medical hall.

Huang Wuye looked at Ling Yue's back and shook his head helplessly, one was locked up and another was sick, it was really enough for him...

At night, Ling Yue sat beside Changying's bed and covered the quilt for him, sighing worriedly. Lang Zhong from the medical hall told Ling Yue that Changying, the kid, was just frightened, and he was enchanted with anger, and he would be better in a few days after drinking the medicine and resting. It's just that grandma's case is really difficult to handle, and Changying will fall ill here, and he can't take care of this side or there, in the end, he lacks skills...

Ling Yue looked at Chang Ying worriedly, and when he saw that the handkerchief on his forehead was getting hot, he took it off again, rubbed it in a basin of water, and covered it again.

At this moment, I only heard a few crisp knocks outside the courtyard door, which was very abrupt in this silent night. Ling Yue went out to see that it was the Fifth Master standing outside with a basket.

Ling Yue was already physically and mentally exhausted at the moment after this day's toss, but he also forgot to pretend to be innocent to face the visitor, and asked with a frown, "How do you know that I am here..."

"The Shi family is famous today... Just ask someone on the way. The fifth master was only in a bad mood when he suddenly changed, as if he didn't see his face, and pushed away Ling Yuezhu's hand on the door frame as he spoke, and drilled into the courtyard by himself: "I guess you haven't eaten yet, come and eat." ”

Hearing the fifth master say this, Ling Yue's stomach responded obediently, ignoring his master and not being in the mood to pay attention to himself at all. The fifth master opened the basket in his hand in front of the stone table, and there was a cage of crystal horns inside, each of which was bright and beautiful. This crystal horn is made of soybean flour as the skin, the pork is minced and mixed with the yellow skin, salt and sauce to make the filling, and the supper at night is warm and easy to digest, and the smell is even more fragrant.

"Come and eat. Huang Wuye held chopsticks and waited for him in front of the stone table, with a posture of pinching my neck and feeding you if you don't eat. Ling Yue sighed and sat down at the table with chopsticks and barely coped with two bites, but with the warm food in his stomach, the fear and exhaustion that he had ignored for a day instantly came up, which made his heart sour, but he knew that this kind of emotion was useless for investigating the case, so he could only bow his head and smile bitterly, and then suppressed this negative emotion with two crystal dumplings.

Huang Wuye didn't know that Ling Yue's heart had turned over at this time, and seeing that he had almost eaten, he asked out loud, "Who are you and this old lady...?"

Ling Yue sighed, only Huang Wuye could help him now, and it seemed that some things were not easy to hide from him anymore: "I have wandered outside without a father and mother since I was a child, and when I first arrived in this city, I couldn't ask for food everywhere, and then my grandmother saved me..."

"Well, why are the people in Qiuling City so indifferent, and they don't even save a child?"

Recalling that past, Ling Yue's eyes couldn't help but darken: "I heard from my grandmother that it was because of the previous demon rebellion that the people in this city were more wary of strangers..."

"Then why did you come to Qiuling City in the first place?"

"I can't stay in the other cities anymore..."Ling Yue thought about it and made up a reason to hide his previous amnesia.

Huang Wuye looked at Ling Yue, but his gaze was a little empty, as if he was looking at something else in the distance through him, and he didn't know what he was thinking, so he was silent for a long time.

Ling Yue was stared at by him uncomfortably, so he put down the chopsticks in his hand and asked, "Lin Gao, this person...?"

Huang Wuye hurriedly retracted his gaze and said, "Gu Da came back just now, and he did find Lin Gao on the roster of demon hunters in Zhushan County. Afraid that he wouldn't understand, he continued to explain: "Usually, each county will regularly and synchronously record the new demon hunters in various parts of the subordinate places. ”

Ling Yue really didn't know much about things related to demon hunting, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard this: "There are more than 20 counties in this country, and each county has more than a dozen cities under its jurisdiction... This county has to be synchronized on a regular basis, which is a lot of work..."

Huang Wuye nodded helplessly: "This roster is a rule formulated by the imperial court, I am afraid that some demons will mix among the people as demon hunters, and be careful to sail the boat for ten thousand years..."

"Then there is no such thing as not going to register? There are so many people who practice magic in Su Country, and the imperial court must be registered?"

Huang Wuye shook his head: "Well, this is not necessarily, but if you want to make money as a demon hunter, you must register, if you just want to practice spells to defend yourself, it doesn't matter." ”

"In this case, what Lin Gao said is true? He, like you, is a demon hunter who came to Qiuling City to catch the white ape demon?"

"Well... This man's identity as a demon hunter is true, and I asked him if I was indeed trying to catch one. Huang Wuye nodded, but there was still a hint of hesitation: "But... The timing of his appearance today is too coincidental, it is difficult to prove that he has nothing to do with Zhang Fu, and the kinship he said is not on the list of demon hunts, but the Wind Lonely City is far away from here, and it will take a month for Gu Dajia to make a round trip no matter how fast he is, so it is impossible for him to check. ”

"Lin Gao now...?"

"In the temple, I let Gu Da Gu Er watch it. Seeing that Ling Yue was still a little worried, Huang Wuye said indifferently: "Eh, don't worry, they are the emperor... But it's even more powerful than my Huang Wuye..."

Ling Yue suddenly thought that when he wanted to sneak out of the temple that morning, the two of them would be able to change from lying down to standing silently, but he believed Huang Wuye's words.

"But we've got to keep an eye on him for the next two days. By the way, let's go to the prison tomorrow to see the old lady, and we still have to ask her about this old man. ”

Ling Yue nodded, but suddenly thought of something: "Today I saw Boss Zhu hanging around in front of Zhang's mansion, I don't know if it has something to do with that Master Zhang." ”

"Boss Zhu, the fat man I hung on the tree?" Huang Wuye recalled that the man looked disgusted: "Have you ever seen the two of them interact when you were in the Demon Race Arena?"

Ling Yue shook his head: "This Boss Zhu is in the demon business, Master Zhang is a seller of birds and beasts, it stands to reason that the two of them have nothing to do with each other, I have never seen the Master Zhang family when I was in the demon race field, but his son often comes to spend time drinking... Maybe it's just passing by... And..."

"And what?"

"Hey... The people of this Qiuling City are too afraid of demons, and they usually talk about demon changes, not to mention that there is a demon competition field in this city... You see that this Boss Zhu is rampant, but in fact, the people in Qiu Ling City have very little contact with him, except for those gamblers who come often... So this old man should have no personal relationship with him. ”

"It's the first time I've seen a place where I can be so afraid of demons. ”

"No way, small place, no demon hunter support. ”

"If you look at it this way, even if the murderer of this Zhang Mansion case is a demon, no one knows about the relationship between this Zhang Mansion and this demon. Huang Wuye sighed as he spoke, and his eyes gradually emptied: "Hey, this case is really clueless..."

There were no doubts left and right that could be discussed, Huang Wuye saw that Ling Yue was a little stunned, so he got up and said goodbye: "I'll go back to the temple, come back tomorrow, you can rest early." ”

Ling Yue looked at Huang Wuye's back, hesitated for a moment, and then whispered: "Be careful on the road, and... Thank you. ”

I saw that the back figure paused and waved at him: "Tomorrow I will ask Gu Da to come and see the child, don't take him out with me." The voice gradually disappeared into the night with the figure.

After Ling Yue sent the fifth master, he returned to the room and lay on the side of Changying's bed, looking at the sleeping Changying couldn't help but be stunned, Xu is nerves have been tense today, and after lying down for a while, Ling Yue only felt that his body was getting heavier and heavier, sinking to the point that he couldn't react...

Until Ling Yue was woken up by a strong push: "Brother Ling, Brother Ling, it's not good!"

Ling Yue opened his eyes dimly, the sun was already shining outside the window, and he didn't have time to wonder how he slept until he slept like this, so he saw Changying's child standing in front of him with a very bad look, thinking that the child was sick and uncomfortable, and couldn't help but feel his heart hang again: "What's wrong? It's very uncomfortable?"

Changying saw that Ling Yue had woken up, and without saying a word, he took Ling Yue's hand and ran outside: "Grandma is going to be executed!"

As soon as Ling Yue heard this, his whole person instantly sobered up: "What's the matter?!"

"I don't know, this morning an official came to say that grandma was convicted, and this will be executed..."

Ling Yue rushed all the way towards the City Mansion, and the figures of the people on the road became blurred, but he vaguely felt that they were pointing at them and saying something.

But who knew that when they ran to the city office, Lord Na Lian told them that their grandmother had been executed with a bowl of poison... Ling Yue stood stunned on the spot, shouting uncontrollably, "What evidence do you have to convict Grandma!"

Lord Cheng Silian sighed and told them that the people of Zhang's Mansion were not all wiped out yesterday, and the little grandson of Zhang's Mansion escaped by hiding under the bed when the murderer committed the murder, and last night the little grandson pointed out that grandma was the murderer!

Ling Yue was like five thunderbolts, and the whole person stumbled around in the city division's mansion, trying to find the place of execution, but suddenly heard Changying calling himself at the door of the inner hall, grandma was lying on the bed where Lord and Mrs. Lian slept on weekdays, he hurriedly went in and knelt beside the bed, but saw that grandma was pale but peaceful and peaceful, not at all like Lord Lian said that she took poison and died!

Ling Yue trembled and probed his grandmother's snort, it was indeed the soul of the West Heaven, Chang Ying wailed on the side, Ling Yue stood up and looked at all this numbly.

No, no matter how you look at it, it's not right! Zhang Fu obviously has no living mouth, and he can clearly see the corpse of that little grandson in the courtyard yesterday! And how can this place of execution be the inner hall of this city division, the bed of this city division!

Ling Yue picked up his grandmother's body and was about to carry her out, he wanted to ask Lord Na Lian about it... But he ran all over the city and didn't see anyone else, even the officials disappeared...

He had no choice but to walk outside the door, but at the gate of the Chengsi Mansion, Ling Yue's feet slipped, and the whole person fell to the ground with his grandmother, and the people around him gradually gathered and began to point fingers at him.

"You see, it was this old lady who killed her..."

"It's really human-faced and beast-hearted, Master Zhang turned out to be so good to her..."

"Her grandson is afraid that he will be a scourge in the future..."

Ling Yue's dizziness was made by your words, and he began to mumble to himself: "No, it's not grandma, it's not right..."

"It's not... Grandma..."

"No!!" he couldn't bear it anymore in the face of other people's accusations, and finally broke out and sat up from the ground violently...

It's a dream... It's still dark... He was still sitting on the edge of Changying's bed, Changying was still asleep on the bed, everything was fake...

If there was a mirror in front of Ling Yue at this moment, he would definitely find that his eyes were crimson at this moment, but his pupils shrunk into a vertical line, and in that vertical line was the appearance of a jade, his face was very hideous, and the whole person was panting heavily, which was extremely weird.
