Chapter 355: Dou Haishi
Just when Qin Xuan was wandering outside the world, the Linghu City Lord had already begun to interrogate these martial artists.
is worthy of being the lord of a city, although the lord of Linghu City is not high in martial arts, his methods are extremely ruthless, and he quickly found clues.
"Rich merchant Dou Haishi?" Ling Fox City Lord frowned slightly, revealing a thoughtful look.
This person's name was heard by the Lord of Linghu City, and it was the nephew of the Dou Taishi.
Although the fourth prince and the second prince fell apart in order to compete for the throne, there was still a group of family lords who remained neutral, and Dou Taishi was one of them.
These clans are only loyal to the future monarch of the warlord, and they will not defect to either side until the fourth prince and the second prince are divided.
Moreover, these gate lords are powerful, and the fourth prince and the second prince do not dare to offend easily, so they can only let them watch the battle.
"City Lord, what now?"
General Hu looked at the Linghu City Lord, this matter involves Taishi Dou, then it will be troublesome!
Dou Haishi is just a small person, but he has become a spy, which means that the master behind him, Taishi Dou, may have secretly taken refuge in the second prince.
"This matter should not be alarmed, by the way, has Dou Haishi's mansion been searched?" asked the Linghu City Lord.
"Not yet, Dou Haishi is Dou Taishi's person, and we don't dare to offend easily, so we didn't search. General Hu bowed and said.
"Confused, the crisis is ahead, don't say that he is a Dou Haishi, even if it is the city lord's mansion, it should be searched. Ling Fox City Lord said angrily.
"Yes, my subordinates will do it. General Hu immediately walked outside the torture chamber.
"Slow," Linghu City Lord suddenly called General Hu, he thought for a while, and then said: "This matter should not be made a big fuss, this official will personally investigate, so that even if Dou Haishi is wronged, with my face, Taishi Dou will not be angry." ”
"Yes, sir. ”
After General Hu left, the Linghu City Lord glanced at Qin Xuan and nodded slightly.
Just now, the Fox City Lord suddenly changed his words, but it was actually Qin Xuan who quietly pulled him.
Ling Fox City Lord was so smart that he instantly understood what Qin Xuan meant.
Dou Haishi's identity is special, and the person who can let him respond must not be a small person, it is likely to be the martial artist of the Bone Shedding Realm.
The goal was in front of him, and of course Qin Xuan couldn't let it go.
On the carriage, the Linghu City Lord whispered, "General Qin, if you really find that Bone Shedding Realm martial artist in a while, you can protect it."
Good me. ”
"Rest assured that the fox city lord, you have seen my methods. Qin Xuan smiled slightly and patted the city lord's shoulder.
Thinking of Qin Xuan's strange and unpredictable speed, the Fox City Lord breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Qin Xuan's cultivation was only at the peak of the Flesh Refining Realm, he used the Treading Water Technique, and there were two layers of dark energy superimposed, and the speed was so fast that even a Grandmaster might not be able to catch up.
Of course, this kind of footwork consumes too much true qi, and Qin Xuan will not use it easily.
In front of Dou Haishi's mansion, a carriage slowly stopped.
The guards in front of the Dou Mansion saw the carriage and hurriedly stepped forward to greet them.
This is the carriage of the City Lord's Mansion, and it is also printed with the mark of the City Lord's Mansion, and the guards of the Dou Mansion naturally dare not slack off.
"Is the city lord here? The subordinates will go and ask the lord to come out to greet the city lord. One of the guards snapped.
"No need, this official is here for business, these etiquettes will be waived!" Ling Fox City Lord stepped out of the carriage, and Qin Xuan followed by his side, inseparable.
Linghu City Lord led the guards to break into the Dou Mansion directly, and those guards did not dare to stop them, only one of his subordinates hurriedly ran into the inner courtyard and informed Dou Haishi.
A moment later, Dou Haishi hurriedly walked out and met the Linghu City Lord in the corridor.
"Grass people Dou Haishi, I have seen the city lord. Dou Haishi hurriedly kowtowed.
"Master Dou, don't blame this official for being reckless, it's really that the military situation in South Cave City is urgent now, and every mansion needs to be searched, not to mention Master Dou's mansion, even if it's my city lord's mansion, I can't let it go, so this official can only offend!"
"The city lord is serious, the grass people are white, and the Dou Mansion is also innocent, and he is willing to cooperate with the city lord's search. Dou Haishi's face was full of righteousness and awe.
"Okay, Master Dou is worthy of being the nephew of the Taishi, and he really knows the general situation, come and search the Dou Mansion, and he is not allowed to let go of a single grass or tree. Linghu City Lord shouted.
The guards behind him immediately began to search the Dou Mansion, and immediately the entire mansion jumped, and all the relatives and subordinates stood in the courtyard, waiting for review.
At this moment, a powerful subordinate walked up to Master Dou, bowed down and said, "Master, they are going to search the warehouse." ”
Old Master Dou's face changed slightly, and he walked in front of the Linghu City Lord, "City Lord, the treasury is all stored with gold and silver, and it is closed all the year round, so there is definitely no one to enter, so there is no need to search it!"
When the Linghu City Lord heard this, he turned his head slightly and glanced at Qin Xuan.
Qin Xuan is still one
He looked indifferent, neither nodding nor shaking his head.
"Master Dou, please also understand the difficulties of this official, it is really an urgent military situation, and you must not neglect it. Linghu City Lord helped Dou Haishi to sit on the stone bench in the middle of the courtyard to rest.
Dou Haishi's face changed and changed, and after a long time, he sighed, took out a key from his waist and handed it to the Linghu City Lord, "City Lord, it's really not the grass people who deliberately make things difficult, the gold and silver equipment in the treasury are all temporarily stored by Taishi Dou here, once there is a loss, I am afraid that I will be blamed by Taishi." ”
"Master Dou's?" made the Fox City Lord's heart tremble, but he immediately took the key.
Coming to this point, it is impossible to go down without stubbornness, not to mention that there is Qin Xuan staring at the side.
If the Fox City Lord retreats today, I am afraid that tomorrow, Qin Xuan will pass the news to the four princes, and by the way, he will have a copy.
"The military situation is urgent, even if it is a master, it can only be offended. Linghu City Lord gritted his teeth and said, "Go, search the treasury carefully, but remember, don't damage the contents inside." ”
The Lord of Linghu City handed over the key to a personal guard.
"Yes, sir. ”
Watching a group of guards walk towards the warehouse, Qin Xuan walked to the side of the Linghu City Lord and said in a low voice: "City Lord, these guards are clumsy, if the treasure inside is damaged, the Taishi will blame it, and it will be a big trouble, why don't you go and see it in person?"
"Yes, yes, this lord is reasonable, with the city lord taking care of it personally, the grass people believe that the Taishi will never be angry. Dou Haishi hurriedly persuaded.
"In that case, the official will go on a trip himself. ”
Linghu City Lord took Dou Haishi and Qin Xuan and also walked towards the warehouse.
Before he could get close to the warehouse, Qin Xuan sensed a fluctuation of true qi.
His soul power had already reached the fifth order, and his sensing power was stronger than that of the grandmaster, and although that true qi fluctuation was very hidden, it still couldn't hide it from Qin Xuan.
"Sure enough, it's here!" the corners of Qin Xuan's mouth curled slightly.
He began to observe his surroundings.
The warehouse is next to the rockery in the inner courtyard, leaning on the boulder, and the whole body is hidden in the rocks.
In addition, there is a river next to the rockery, with gurgling water and mountains and rivers.
"Where is this person hiding?" Qin Xuan looked around and followed the Linghu City Lord into the warehouse.
The moment he stepped into the door of the warehouse, a sword light fell from the sky.
