The Siege of Fancheng Chapter 16 Unsolved Cases
Yipin...... Two products......
"This Mr. Mu is a three-grade soul master. Elder Skyfire, you can't beat him. Wei Song's expression suddenly changed, from nervousness to cunning.
"So you deliberately lured me in!" Elder Tianhuo suddenly understood the truth.
This third-grade soul master had already been arranged to be here, but Mu Rui had been hiding his aura and not letting him find out. Seeing Lin Hai in addition to the City Lord's Mansion this morning, he thought that this was a good opportunity to take the position of City Lord. Even if Lin Hai came back, he would be able to take Wei Song hostage and balance Lin Hai and Wei Zong.
Judging from the current situation, I have fallen into a trap.
"Do you think I'm really out of the City Lord's Mansion?" came an equally old voice. Tianhuo looked back in horror, and Lin Hai was standing not far behind him, looking at him with contemptuous and mocking eyes.
"You...... The old man and you are going to break the net!"
Tianhuo knew that it was difficult for him to retreat with his whole body, and his soul power was activated, and his dantian suddenly bulged like a ball.
"It's not good, he's going to blow himself up!" Wei Song was shocked.
I never thought that when I saw that I couldn't escape from the City Lord's Mansion, I wanted to die with everyone!
"Carving insect skills!" Lin Hai's eyes were also fierce, with him a first-grade soul master, it was simply wishful thinking to rely on the inferior means of self-explosion to die with the high-level soul master!
Lin Hai took advantage of the fact that Tianhuo's dantian had not yet used his soul power, and a heavenly palm slashed, causing Tianhuo to directly deflat, spitting blood from his mouth and flying out several zhang away.
"The old man is most disgusted with people like you, treacherous, and the people who prey on the common people, die!" Lin Hai held a hollow heart in his hand, and before Tianhuo said his last words before death, he punched in the air.
After receiving a fatal blow, Tianhuo was finally like a maggot on the tarsal bone, dying and struggling a few times, only the last breath was missing.
"This city is not something you can manage. If you don't manage it well, you will die sooner or later!"
Skyfire grinned and uttered his last vicious last words.
"Sir, I haven't had time to welcome you. You are our benefactor in Fancheng, and we have nothing to repay. Lin Hai and Wei Song were rude.
"Seniors don't have to be polite. It's all a gesture of effort, and it's justified. Mu Rui returned the salute and helped Lin Hai and Wei Song up.
"Dare to ask Mr. What advice do you have when you come this time?" Lin Hai asked.
The last time Mu Rui met him, he proposed a plan to relieve the siege of Fancheng, and he already had great respect for Mu Rui. He didn't expect that he could have such a talent at such a young age, and he was really ashamed to be an old man who had held the position of Great Elder for decades.
"I can't advise, seniors, don't torture me. It's just that I came here next time to find out about the ...... of the Supervision Office in Huicheng," Mu Rui said.
Inspectorate of the Ombudsman.
It used to be an institution in Huicheng that supervised the elders and the people. There has always been civil strife in Huicheng, and there is no way to calm it down. The lord of Huicheng set up a supervision office in the city, with the purpose of eliminating dissidents.
The responsibilities of this overseer are so great that even the elders have no way to interfere with them. Since the Ghost King took Huicheng, the people of the Supervision Mansion have not been found. It may be running away with the outcasts, or it may be wandering in the city.
"I probably understand what the gentleman means. Lin Hai replied.
Although the Supervision Office has eliminated civil strife to a certain extent, it is well known that this strategy has also made the people of Huicheng panic, and the people are worried all day long. If it was a Ming monarch, he would never allow such a system to be enforced in the city.
"The old man and the city lord Wei Shao will not set up an institution like the Supervision Mansion, please rest assured that Mr. Lin Hai and Wei Song reached an agreement and responded.
"No," Mu Rui said with a smile, "Master's intention is to let the old-timers restore the Supervision Mansion, and there are other plans." ”
"Many of the old man's decisions really shocked the old man. Lin Hai didn't expect Mu Rui to let himself reinstate the Supervision Office, which is not very promising. Originally, the city that had just been built was in ruins, so shouldn't it be the first to care for the people, and everything should be based on peace?
However, since it was Mu Rui's request, there must be a reason for him.
"Actually, there is another thing, although it doesn't have a big impact, but because it is entrusted by the master, I hope to find out. Mu Rui took up a different topic.
"What's the matter, sir, please. Lin Hai and Wei Song spoke almost in unison.
But as long as Mu Rui made a request, as long as it was within their ability, Lin Hai and Wei Song would not refuse. This is the truth of gratitude and retribution.
What's more, it was still the request of the old valley lord Ouyang, so it couldn't be shirked.
"That's right, there was a person named Chu Jue in the past Supervision Mansion in Huicheng, and he hoped to hand over the information related to him to him. Mu Rui pleaded.
"Yes. It's just that now the Supervision Mansion should have no effect, and after the Ghost King slaughtered the city, there must be very few survivors......"
Wei Song was about to continue, asking Mu Rui what he needed this information for, but Lin Hai winked and hinted that he should not continue.
"Don't worry, as long as the relevant copywriting is still in the city lord's mansion, the old man will definitely hand it over to Mr. Afterwards, I also asked Mr. to say hello to the lord of Ouyang Valley. Lin Hai replied for Wei Song.
"With the words of the old-timers, I will be relieved in the future. These days, can you let you live in Huicheng?" Mu Rui requested. Ever since the senior brother had razed Xiaohulu to the ground by mistake with the Flying Frost Thunder Festival, they couldn't find a place to live for a while.
"There is no problem with this, the city lord and I will arrange a place to live in the mansion as soon as possible and provide it to a few gentlemen. Lin Hai agreed without thinking.
"This ...... I'm afraid it's convenient for us to stay outside the City Lord's Mansion. I hope that Lin can be fulfilled. "Mu Rui was instructed by Yi Huan not to live in the City Lord's Mansion so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.
Fang Cai's sentence of "several gentlemen", presumably Lin Hai already knew about Senior Brother Yi Huan. Maybe it's because of that glazed cicada jade. Then why is the senior brother reluctant to come to see Lin in person?
"What is Mr. thinking?" Lin Hai seemed to notice that Mu Rui was distracted, "Please rest assured, Mr. will make arrangements and will not neglect Mr." ”
Mu Rui came back to his senses and hurriedly apologized: "I'm really sorry, I just remembered something and lost my mind." Don't blame the seniors, I don't have to worry about the inappropriate arrangement of the seniors, but there have been a lot of things recently, and the seniors have been annoyed. ”
"Where, where," Lin Hai waved his hand, Mu Rui solved the disaster of destroying the city for them, and wanted to do something for Mu Rui and the others, where is the reason for trouble, "The old man will arrange a place for Mr. to live." Tonight, the gentleman will have a comfortable place to live. In addition, Chu Jue's copywriting must be found out as soon as possible and sent to Mr.'s residence. ”
"I'm tired of my seniors. Mu Rui said politely, and turned to leave.
......
"Senior brother, who is this Chu Jue, why do you want me to ask Senior Lin for his file?"
Everything has been arranged, in the dead of night, Mu Rui asked Yi Huan.
"A person I admire. Moreover, the swordsmanship is particularly powerful. Yi Huan said, picked up a melon seed kernel, and chewed it fragrantly.
"How powerful is it that you can appreciate him, senior brother?" Mu Rui got to the bottom of it.
"One person can lead to a massacre. Yi Huan said words that were not shocking, but his face was calm, as if he was just chatting about family life.
Mu Rui, on the other hand, was quite frightened, his eyes widened, and he looked at his senior brother in surprise.
"Don't worry, with your senior brother here, you don't have to be afraid of this kind of problem. Yi Huan was still indifferent.
"But it's ...... to slaughter the city."
"You're tired too, go to sleep. That's all in the past, what do we have to do with it?" Yi Huan waved his hand, he had just drunk the wine, and the strength of the wine had not yet dissipated. With the strength of the wine, he was a little drowsy.
"No, senior brother, you have to tell me, what is the matter, why can one person bring the disaster of slaughtering the city?" Mu Rui did not give up, pushing Yi Huan.
Yi Huan naturally couldn't sleep, he squinted at his junior brother, and felt that his junior brother was like a child.
A cool breeze slipped in at the door, and the brothers noticed the cold wind howling outside the window, and they were terrified.
"It's better to tell you a story, it happened in Huicheng. Yi Huan thought that he couldn't get rid of the storytelling anyway, so it was better to wait until he was tired of talking and Mu Rui was tired of listening, and then went to sleep, which would be more stable.
"You know, this Huicheng originally had strict institutions and systems, including the Supervision Office, and the entire city was impregnable. But because of one person in the superintendent's house, it brought about a disaster. It can be said that he was the fuse figure for the massacre of the entire Fancheng and was captured by the Ghost King. ”
"Is this Chu Jue?"
"Yes, yes," Yi Huan nodded, his red face flushed with drunkenness, "It was an accident that happened to him that caused the entire Supervision Mansion to collapse and the City Lord's Mansion to have civil strife, so that the Ghost King could take advantage of it." ”
"However, I don't understand, how can an ordinary internal guard of the Supervision Mansion cause such a big fluctuation?" Mu Rui was puzzled.
"Hey, don't worry, it's not the whole story. ”
......
A month ago, a fishing village.
"Do you know that your brother Pinghuai, he's coming back. After reading the letter, the old man said to his granddaughter.
"Really?" the girl's big eyes twinkled with surprise. It's been two years, and since Pinghuai went to the City Lord's Mansion to serve as the internal guard of the Supervision Mansion, Xinran has been thinking about her Pinghuai brother in her heart.
Two years, for others, may be a matter of fetching firewood hundreds of times, boiling water for hundreds of days, and watching the sunset and sunrise pass. But for a girl with a longing in her heart, two years is an unusual number.
This year, Xinran has become an adult, and it is the day when ordinary girls in the village talk about marriage. She was very happy to hear the news that her sweetheart was about to return at this time. She imagined Pinghuai riding a horse into the village before sunset, flying freely, hoping to hear Pinghuai playing the flute and dancing for her under the moonlight.
"Hey, old thing, is your daughter married, or not!
Before she woke up from the girl's dream, the rude roar directly frightened the old man next to him to the ground. The meaty yellow man kicked the fence and broke into the old man's house.
"Zhuang Gongzi's request, the old slave is really difficult to do. The old man got up and begged.
