Chapter 20: Rescue the Poison Here
"Lord Mao, slow down!" Lu Linlan hurriedly stopped, "Mount Tai collapsed in front of me and did not change color, and the eldest husband is also! Besides, it has been delayed for so many days, and I don't care about this moment and a half." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"Yes, yes, yes! Senior Sister Lu should have other instructions. Look at me, in a hurry, I forgot. Lord Mao laughed and apologized.
"I didn't dare to be an indicator, so I just discussed with Lord Mao. Lu Linlan was modest. After all, the other party is building the foundation, and he can't get carried away.
"It's all the same, it's all the same!" the city lord asked, "By the way, this Mount Tai, I don't know which mountain it is?"
Lu Linlan explained: "Oh, that's just a title, representing father-in-law. ”
The city lord of Mao tasted it: "Wonderful, wonderful! This metaphor is wonderful!"
"Okay, let's move on," Lu Linlan said, "just now, we belong to the 'as far as a single infant is missing', but in fact, there is far more than one missing baby. There are more than 60 people, and there must be more than 40 cases. What are the similarities or similarities between so many cases of missing babies and young children?"
Lord Mao replied: "Well, it's the same, the missing people are all infants, and there are no extortion letters." I'm sorry, I don't understand what it means to be similar. ”
Lu Linlan said: "It's similar, for example: although the accident site is not in the same place, it is very close. The first time it was here, the second time it was five steps away, and the third time it was five steps away. ”
"I see. As long as this similarity is clarified, it is possible to speculate in advance where the next accident will be. Then we can set up an ambush and wipe out all the gangsters!"
"Yes, that's what it means. ”
"Someone comes, call the master bookkeeper. "Lord Mao commanded.
Soon, the master book came. After listening to the meaning of Lu Linlan and the city lord Mao, the main book said that there was no similarity. The city lord Mao asked again, and the master turned around and took the file. The file was unfolded, and the city lord of Lu Lin Lanmao saw that the place name on it was just a place name, and the word Lu Mao, who was not familiar with the place name, had to stare dryly.
Lu Linlan asked, "Is there a catch?"
"Naturally. ”
Lu Linlan said: "If you are a local, you should be familiar with these place names. ”
The city lord of Mao immediately asked the master book to step down, and by the way, called Luo Zhutou over.
Luo Zhutou came, indicating that he was familiar with the names of those places. Occasionally, I was unfamiliar with it before, and when I got to the scene, I am familiar with it now.
However, Luo Zhutou also did not know what similarities those cases had.
Lu Linlan said: "Okay, City Lord Luo, you still have to do something." As for me, I have to think about this too. Let's call it a day. Tomorrow, we'll split up. I'm going to ask Luo Zhutou to help. Oh, and two horses. Running on foot in the city, after all, is indecent. It seems like...... Nothing else. Uh, where are you staying?"
――
Went to bed so early? Where did all the energy to sort out the case go to just now?
In the world of cultivating immortals, being alone in a room, most of them are not sleeping, at least not Lu Linlan. What Lu Linlan wanted to do now was to cultivate and practice spells.
As for sorting out the facts of the case just now, it was just a means to win the support of the city lord. Lu Linlan did not desire the strong support of the city lord, but hoped that the city lord would not restrain or hinder him.
In other words, sorting out the facts of the case is tantamount to Lu Linlan making a show to the Lord of Mao.
――
In the afternoon of the same day, Lu Linlan practiced in the guest house. Luo Zhutou has been waiting outside.
The next morning, Lu Linlan called Luo Zhutou to go shopping on horseback.
Horseback riding is not only a gesture, but also a speed. If a man leads a horse, the horse will go as fast as the man goes. When a horse carries a person, the speed is taken from the horse and is no longer human. Therefore, even if you are walking rather than running, you can still ride a horse much faster than people walking. The idiom "to see the flowers" has such a meaning.
If you go shopping quickly, you are really shopping on the street, not the shops and goods on the street.
It could have been faster and let the horses run, but the streets were full of people and it was easy to hurt innocents, so I had to "walk the horses" like this.
After a morning of shopping, I naturally didn't finish shopping. Lu Linlan asked Luo Zhutou to take a holiday in the afternoon and continue to visit the next day.
That's it, three days of shopping.
On the morning of the third day, I only walked around for a while, and it was over. If you continue to walk around, you will be walking through the street.
Lu Linlan let go of Luo Zhutou and stayed alone in the room to draw a map.
――
I drew a map because I saw the original map. Not a copy, but a new painting.
What was the original map of Ruinian City that Lu Linlan saw? Just like the map of Bei'an Mountain issued by Yanlong Sect during the last training, it was an indicator map with an origin and an end point. That is, on a blank piece of paper, the kind of schematic diagram that indicates the origin and end points, as well as two or three important intersections.
In the schematic diagram, the origin does not need to be written more, and the name can be used. Two or three important intersections and end points must be detailed. For example, there is a river on the left, and there is a tea shed on the right, and the terrain is a hillside, and there is a mass grave on the top, and if you turn right at the fourth intersection of the city gate, turn left when you see King's Landing Pharmacy, and the third gate of Xiangfeng Restaurant to the east, and so on. In many cases, there are not only textual annotations, but also graphics attached.
Now you can understand what the original map looked like, and that is the advice of materialization.
If you think about modern maps, the difference between the two is obvious.
Lu Linlan rode a horse to go shopping, in fact, she wanted to sketch a map of the city. Modern maps, of course.
It is only on modern maps that the connection between the places of the crime can be found.
――
What exactly does Lu Linlan want to do? If she doesn't say it, no one knows.
Words, of course, were still said. It's just that what she said is that she has to think about it and scrutinize the case.
In fact, it was mainly delaying time, and it was almost done until the flash flood investigation.
During the delay, Lu Linlan naturally meditated and cultivated.
The room was not spacious enough, so Tai Chi was not played.
――
How many days will it take to investigate the flash flood and be almost finished?
Lu Linlan thought that they would go up along the torrent until there was no virus. Whether there is a virus or not, they can test it with poultry, these, count it for half an hour. Then, they have to find out the entrances and exits of the ancient tombs or ancient mansions. This difficulty is counted for two hours. Then, the rest of the day is running out. It's going to be a poison gas or something. You can only enter the next day.
It is unknown how large the tomb or ancient mansion is. But there must be mechanisms and formations. It won't take long to set up a mechanism formation. Crack, it will take a long time. Crack in dangerous situations for longer. According to the general situation, there are three levels of formation. Then, it will take about four days to crack the formation. Find the wrong way, count the day.
It won't be long before you find out and collect the good things of the elixir magic weapon. If they don't have internal conflicts, they can return to the ground in a day's work.
Next, it's time to heal. Fang Haoyu once cured a person. There were seven of them, and there was great strength in numbers. In about three days, everything that can be cured should be cured, and everything that cannot be cured should have died violently.
All in all, after nine days, it should be about the same over there.
――
On his own side, he needs to be arrested on the eighth day. Find the place on the seventh day. Three days have passed, and there are four days left.
It can take two days to find a place. Of course, it's better to find a place first and wait for someone to be arrested. In this way, if the flash flood is done ahead of schedule, it will also be in time.
So, starting from the fourth day, Lu Linlan took action.
――
Lu Linlan narrowed her eyes and walked slowly. This is what Lu Linlan is actually doing.
It's easy to get to the bottom of that.
First of all, the inspection of the city gate access control can be summed up in two sentences: it is very strict, but there are loopholes.
This means that more than 60 infants and young children, most of them, have been transported out of the city.
How much is left?
Five months ago, access control inspections were strengthened and people were sent to stay in the dart bureau; three months ago, the privilege of exempting vehicles owned by the city lord's office from going out of the city was abolished; and two months ago, the privilege of exempting vehicles from leaving the city by large households was abolished. From these three times, it can be roughly inferred that the number of abducted infants and young children left in the city at this time should be between ten and twenty.
Above the golden pill, it has divine sense. If it is a Yuan Baby, sitting in the City Lord's Mansion and scanning his divine sense, he can know where the abducted baby left in the city is hiding. If it's Jindan, you're going to go out and fly around. Building a foundation is no longer a divine consciousness but a spiritual consciousness, and it needs to run for more. Now, Lu Linlan is just practicing qi. What is there during the Qi training period? In other words, Lu Linlan's six-sense sensitivity is much stronger than that of mortals.
Of course, not all six senses of sight, touch, hearing, smell, taste, and heart can be used. The main use is still hearing.
Ten to twenty babies and toddlers stay together, and unless they all faint, they will make some noise. This is what Lu Linlan wants to hear.
And drawing a map and marking the location of the crime on the map is not a complete wasted effort. By drawing a map, Lu Linlan found that the scattered locations of the crime roughly formed a circle. As a result, the area around the center of the circle has naturally become a key area.
At this point, it's still early. It is expected that the infants and young children will be rescued on the eighth day. Therefore, Lu Linlan did not go straight to the key area. Instead, other places outside the key areas have been cleaned up.
――
The poor, the commoner, the general household area, very easy to manage. Houses in this area are generally smaller, with access in front of and behind the house. Occasionally, there was a suspicious point about 30 meters away from the side of the road, and Lu Linlan went around to the other side and listened to it at a close distance of more than ten meters, and the suspicion was eliminated.
What can't be ruled out is naturally a large family with a very wide area.
In Ruinian City, there are six such large households. One of the households is located in a key area.
Of course, Lu Linlan can forcibly break into the door and eliminate the five first. It's just that in that way, it's easy to startle the snake.
Therefore, for those five families, Lu Linlan simply became a snitch at night. The fifth layer of Qi training is already more agile than ordinary martial arts masters.
So, through two days and two nights of listening, Lu Linlan excluded all places except for key areas.
――
Then, Lu Linlan didn't go out, and practiced in the house. And so it went until the seventh day.
On the night of the seventh day, Lu Linlan played the snitch again and went straight to the big family in the key area. Because of the abundant time, Lu Linlan is very calm. In the end, without alarming anyone, the place where more than a dozen infants and toddlers were hiding was found.
On the eighth day, Lu Linlan found the lord of Mao, mobilized all the catches, and surrounded the big family. The city lord of Mao took Lu Linlan and flew straight to the place where the baby was hidden.
In the end, 14 infants and toddlers were rescued. Seventy-one mouthfuls of the large family were arrested.
――
When he returned to the castle lord's mansion, he was public and ostentatious. This is what the city lord of Mao meant.
The city lord of Mao is not to show off to the citizens.
For a long time, because of the disappearance of babies and young children, people in the city were panicked. Today, some infants and young children were rescued, suspects were arrested, and the public was shown to relieve worries and reassure the people.
This should be followed by the interrogation of the suspects. For this reason, the city lord of Mao asked Lu Linlan for advice.
Lu Linlan said: "We came here this time, and the leader of the team is the senior brother of Eagle Hunting Peak, and all the rest are registered disciples. Among the registered disciples, I was the latest to start and the lowest to cultivate. So it's enough to do that now. The credit should also be done in moderation. Everything is too much. I can't give any advice to Lord Mao. Please also forgive the Lord of Mao. ”
"Well, Senior Sister Lu is right," said the city lord Mao, "and I won't try it at all." Just hold it for a few days, and wait for Senior Brother Fang and them to come back, and then ask for ideas. Thanks to Senior Sister Lu's reminder. ”
"You're welcome. ”
――
On the ninth day, the people who had gone to investigate the flash flood returned indeed. It's just that there is only one one who came back: Yin Xinran.
Yin Xinran arrived at the city gate in the early hours of the morning.
The gates were not yet opened. In non-war times, although the city is manned, it is inevitably impossible to keep watching.
It wasn't until Mao Shi opened the city gate that he found himself fainting at the city gate listening to Yin Xinran.
reported to the police, and the people above came and ordered them to be carried for treatment. After treating him for a while, Yin Xinran woke up and said that he was from the Yanlong Sect and wanted to find the City Lord Mao.
When the city lord of Mao knew about this, it was just in the morning.
The city lord of Mao called Lu Linlan first, and then went to see Yin Xinran together, only to learn that although there were no dead people in the investigation of the flash flood sick service, everyone was poisoned, and the whole army was about to be wiped out.
Lu Linlan, who had never used the Pure Heart Body Cultivation Pill, took two bottles to Yin Xinran. After Yin Xinran took it, he improved slightly.
Subsequently, the city lord of Mao took Lu Linlan and flew to Yanlong Sect.
――
Outside the mountain gate of Yanlong Sect, the flying sword was lowered. The city lord of Mao said: "I am from outside the sect. In the sect, you can't fly. ”
The two of them climbed hurriedly, and soon, they entered the deacon hall of Chaoyang Peak.
There is no token, just negotiate with the deacon. Fortunately, the disciples of the Deacon Hall were very familiar with Lu Linlan, and when Lu Linlan was on a mission that day, Lu Linlan happened to register for the fifth level of Qi training, and the disciples of the Deacon Hall had some impressions. So, I didn't suffer any trouble.
Mao Lu and the others came here for only one purpose, that is, to ask for help. And this request for help was directly caused by the poisoning of the Falcon Peak disciples, and the indirect reason was the flood sickness. Of course, what happened is still to be roughly explained.
When the disciples of the Deacon Hall asked about the disappearance of the infant, the city lord replied, "Fourteen have been rescued, and the guy who hid the infant has been captured." Because I wanted to wait for Senior Brother Xu to turn around and then try again, so it has not been tried so far. ”
To the ears of the disciples of the deacon's hall, this matter is basically completed or most of it has been completed.
――
Subsequently, in order to save time, a disciple of the Zhuji Deacon Hall took Lu Linlan to the Eagle Peak.
Lin Jingsheng, the ancestor of the Lin family, and Lin Jiazhi, the eldest disciple of the family, happened to be there.
As soon as the disciples of the deacon hall told the matter, Lin Jingsheng immediately asked Lin Jiazhi to call the third disciple Lin Jiamao.
After bidding farewell to the disciples of the deacon's hall, Lin Jingsheng asked Lu Linlan again, encouraged him a few words, and said, "You did a good job this time. Your business, even if it's done. The rest of the matter, you will only become a burden if you go," he turned his hand and took a long sword out, "This is the Cold Moon Sword, a low-level spiritual weapon." It was intended to be given to you after you had laid your foundation. Now that you have made a great contribution, you are not prepared for the teacher, so I will give it to you first. ”
"Thank you, Master!"
"Alright, I'm going to pack my bags here. Go ahead. ”
