Chapter 51: The First Command

The battle for the keys continues, and the battle is fierce. With Yingkong, an example of seizing the eight keys by himself and being in the limelight, other young talents are also vying to show themselves. But there is no one like Yingkong who dominates alone. Part of the reason for this is that everyone is on guard and will not relax because the number of people is less than eight, but more because no one has the strength to surpass the same realm like Yingkong.

It's a lot of fun to watch people fight fiercely, and Yingkong doesn't think how time passes, and the battle for the secret key is over. Tie Hong and Sun Xian inadvertently won the secret key, and Sun Xian also captured two, which is enough to prove her strength. Wei Tai on the side looked at the majestic Sun Xian, and the hatred for Yingkong deepened in his heart. What left a deep impression on Yingkong was the four brothers who appeared in the third battle of the secret keys, the four of them were born in the Huangsha Mo clan, the city lord family of Yuanhai Huangsha City, each with extraordinary talents, and cultivated a peculiar combination attack method. The four of them joined forces and almost swept everyone on the platform. The four of them captured eight keys. It seems that it is necessary to collect information about Huangsha Mo's family, Yingkong thought.

To Yingkong's surprise, it was Bai Qian, who also managed to obtain a secret key, it seems that what he said before was due to shameless poisoning, and it was not a lie. Bai Qi, this kid is still quite powerful, at least among the young people of the same generation in Xilun Xingye.

The battle for the secret key is over, and there is still a period of time before the Aoki inheritance begins, and Yingkong and Bai Qi and the others embark on the journey back to Hengyue City. Bai Qi's luxury flying car is very comfortable, leaning on the soft leather cushions, watching the clouds through the window, and enjoying the green mountains and green waters, which is very comfortable. Despite this, Yingkong prefers Edgeworth's flight to a flying car, and the rapid flight accompanied by the cold wind makes Yingkong even more fascinated by the thrilling feeling. But Yingkong can't go out to fly with Edgeworth, and the speed of the flying car is too slow to keep up. Yingkong didn't know the specific route to Hengyue City, and returning to the city with the son of the city lord would also be beneficial to the future layout, so he took a flying car with Bai Qi and them.

Yingkong had understood before that Hengyue City was a floating city, although he had imagined it before, but when he really saw it, he still felt shocked. For example, when you see the land gradually growing from a black dot to a large size while sailing on the sea, through the window of a speeding car, the small black dots in the sky gradually become larger, and you can gradually see the lush trees, and a little closer, you can see the towering buildings, and then you can see the thick city walls. Hengyue City floated in the sky, but when Yingkong stepped out of the flying car and stepped on this floating city, there was no sense of drift at all, and it was as stable and solid as on the ground. Looking back at the ground, I really feel like I'm in a floating city.

Hengyue City is so huge, so prosperous, it can't be hung up on Qixuan Town, and a place of Twilight Town's size can only be called a 'town'. Fortunately, Yingkong floated in the chaos with Emperor Ziwei for a period of time, and saw a lot of big scenes, although it was the first time he saw the floating city, his face was still the same.

"Young Master Baiji, please arrange a new place for me to live. Yingkong opened his mouth and asked Bai Qian.

"No problem!" Bai Qi immediately agreed, and then asked, "Is it because Gongzi Qin wants a new residence because the previous residence was not well entertained?"

"Not really! I had been attacked before I met you, and apparently someone in my previous residence had leaked my whereabouts. I'm going to change my place of residence and stay out of contact with the people I used to do until I find someone who betrayed me!" said Yingkong with a pretended anger look.

···········

Hengyue Bai family is an ancient family with a good style and morality, Bai Qi as the concubine of the Bai family and the next city lord, he understands the truth of Entu Bao very well. Yingkong has a life-saving grace for Bai Qian, and Bai Qi arranged a super luxurious mansion for Yingkong, and Bai Qi did not lend the house to Yingkong for temporary residence, but gave it to him directly.

"Bai Qian, this guy is really bold enough!" Yingkong sat on the stone chair in the back garden of the house, and praised while playing with Bai Qi giving him two jade talismans. Two jade talismans, one red and one white, red is the control core of this mansion, through which the entire mansion can be controlled, including activating the mansion's defense array, opening the Juyuan formation to accelerate cultivation, and even opening the doors of each room, changing some transformable courtyard landscape decorations, and so on. It can be said that the effect of this jade talisman on this house is similar to the role of the Burning Empty Town Monument for the Burning Empty City, and Yingkong suddenly has a more sober and intuitive understanding of the importance of the Burning Empty Town Monument. The white jade talisman is a kind of communicator, the name is called the communicator, which has the contact marks of Bai Qi, Lu Xueying, Su Ye, Zhao Jin and others, and can transmit text, sound or image information with the people who leave each other's imprints. However, this kind of communication talisman is only useful in Hengyue City, because the function of this jade talisman is based on the large array of Hengyue City. Yingkong understands this situation very well: there is no signal outside the city!

The doorbell rings, and under Yingkong's control, the door opens automatically. Outside the door stood a middle-aged man with a tired face, his hair was already gray, at this time, he bowed slightly, and his tone was concerned, "Young City Lord, are you okay?!"

Yingkong knew who he was, and Yingkong had read the information about him when he was collecting information. His name is Meng Xiang, and he is a die-hard faction of the Qin clan who burned the sky, and escaped with Qin Wuxu when the turmoil occurred. Yingkong secretly thought to himself, although his return to Hengyue is not a secret, but it is not sensational news, he has just obtained this house, he can come to him, it seems that this Meng Xiang also has his own source of intelligence, and he should still have a connection with the people who are loyal to the old city lord in Burning Sky City.

"Are you okay?!Hmph!I should say it's okay!After all, I'm not dead!" Yingkong said angrily, "I don't know how many attacks I've encountered along the way!How many pursuits I've encountered!There are traitors! There must be traitors around me!Steward Meng, you call everyone to my current house, I want to inquire!"

"Yes, I'll go!" Meng Xiang immediately set off to gather his troops. Sure enough, adversity can create talents the most, and the current young city lord has the demeanor that the young city lord should have. Meng Xiang thought about the message he had received, and couldn't help but feel very relieved. Good at swordsmanship, mastering one and three of the four poles of fire, and winning eight heavenly mystery keys with one enemy and seven, such a young city lord can shoulder the heavy task of recovery. Especially the young city lord's sentence 'From now on, my name is Qin Kong!' is the most moving, there are successors to the city lord! Meng Xiang sighed. However, the sound of Steward Meng still made Meng Xiang a little sad, he used to be called 'Uncle Xiangzi', this is probably a necessary change in growth, Meng Xiang comforted himself.

Yingkong sat in the main seat, and there were about 60 men, women, and children standing under the hall. It is really amazing that Qin Wuxu, a son of a down-and-out family who escaped with his life, could have such a battle. "Some of you have betrayed me!

Among these more than 60 people, except for more than ten people who came all the way from the Burning Sky City, the others were hired by Qin Wuxu in Hengyue City, responsible for serving daily life, eating, purchasing materials, and taking care of the house. For a while, everyone in the hall was silent.

"The people who followed me all the way are standing on the right! The people from Hengyue City are standing on the left!" Yingkong gave an order, and the crowd was divided into two groups. "Start with the person on the left, one by one, and go to the backyard study alone, where I will make individual inquiries!"

After Yingkong finished speaking, he left the main hall and sat down in front of the desk in the study. In the study, Yingkong tapped the bookcase with one hand and examined the 'housekeeper' in front of him. "Say, give me a detailed account of your experience from the time you came into contact with me to the present! I will judge based on what you have said. Don't try to hide it, tell me everything! Don't forget, I'll also ask other people, and if you find something untrue, don't blame me for treating you as a traitor!"

"Okay, okay! The villain must repay the truth!" the man nodded repeatedly. "The villain's name is Chen Asi, at the beginning, Steward Meng and Gongzi came to rent the Nancheng Annex, the villain was originally an errand in the Courtyard, whoever rented the Courtyard was my employer. At that time, the villain only thought that Childe was an ordinary visitor from afar, and later, although he heard that Childe was the young master of the Burning Sky City, he was only surprised, but he never thought of using such news to do something evil! The villain is not a traitor, and the villain does not have the guts! I still remember that when Childe came to the courtyard on the first day, he was also dressed in black like this······

No matter how big or small, report according to the facts. This guy can be said to have carried out these eight words to the fullest! But after all, it was his own order, and Yingkong did not interrupt him halfway, but just listened quietly until he said: Today, Gongzi returned from a long trip and summoned everyone to inquire to find out the traitor. At this time, Yingkong waved his hand, "Okay, okay! Temporarily cancel my suspicion of you! Go out and call the next person to come to my study!"

One after another, the detailed reports of dozens of people in a row are really extremely boring and boring, especially those from the Burning Sky City, talking about the experience can be described as ups and downs, twists and turns, listening to the first person said it was very interesting, and the tenth time I listened to it, it was boring and made people drowsy.

By comparing the experiences of the people around him that he heard, he judged and determined who was the traitor, and Yingkong didn't expect this. If a traitor can be found only by inquiry, then this traitor is too much of a failure, and it is difficult for such a stupid traitor to be qualified for such a job that requires good talent to hook up inside and outside, conceal himself, probe the news and effectively transmit it to the outside. Such a stupid traitor may have at the beginning, but it will definitely be discovered and eliminated early by those loyal to Qin Wuxu.

Yingkong's purpose is to listen to the experiences of these people, Yingkong is not Qin Wuxu, if you want to borrow his identity, you must fully understand him. Although I have learned about him by questioning Luo Jue and reading the information of Bowen Pavilion, these are a bit too one-sided and fragmented. However, after today's report from more than sixty people, Yingkong's understanding of Qin Wuxu, especially during the period when he escaped from the Burning Sky City, can be said to be more thorough than Qin Wuxu himself.

At this time, it was already late at night, and Yingkong, who had finished the inquiry, returned to the main hall. More than 60 people were still standing, and the atmosphere was a little solemn. "From today on, my son will live in this house, and the house in the south of the city will not go back, but the house in the south of the city does not need to rush to surrender the rent, and the people who were originally in the house in the south of the city can go back and continue to take care of the house later. As for this courtyard, Yang Huwei arranged for someone to hang a plaque on the courtyard, um~, and it was written 'Hengyue Qin'. Yingkong announced something and continued, "Regarding the issue of the mole, hmph, after my inquiries one by one, I believe that the vast majority of people are loyal. ”

Hearing Yingkong say this, everyone in the hall suddenly looked relaxed, but Yingkong's voice changed, "But the assassination of this son is indeed an indisputable fact!

Meng Xiang, as the housekeeper of the mansion, you are one of the few people who know the exact movements of this son, and you cannot escape the blame for this matter! From today onwards, Meng Xiang, you are no longer the housekeeper of my mansion, please leave my mansion!"

"Young City Lord, you can't do this!" Before Meng Xiang could speak, the others from Burning Sky City couldn't sit still, "Young City Lord, have you forgotten how many times Steward Meng sacrificed himself to protect him all the way from Burning Sky City here? Steward Meng can never be a traitor!"

"This son only knows that because of the leakage of his whereabouts, I don't know how many times I have survived! My order has been given, if Meng Xiang thinks that I am just a waste of a ruined city, you can naturally disobey the order and continue to be a housekeeper. ”

Meng Xiang waved his hand, stopped the guards who were still about to say something, and bowed down, "Meng Xiang respectfully obeys the order of the Lord of the Young City!" As he spoke, Meng Xiang turned around and walked out of the door, his back was so desolate.
