Chapter 152: Exploration
Chapter 152
The night is as cool as water, and the twilight is deep. In an inconspicuous corner of the brightly lit Qin family, the dim light stretched out two narrow shadows, and the silent atmosphere was particularly distinct compared to the sound of silk and bamboo from the front yard and the noise of the crowd.
Qin Tian, the current head of the Qin family, secretly looked at the person sitting on the main seat leisurely drinking tea, beating a drum in his heart, secretly wondering what the other party meant, could it be that Lingyun Palace found something, the more he thought about it, the more he fidgeted.
The person on the main seat was wearing a dark red robe, if Yuan Yi was present, he must have recognized the person at a glance, this person was the leader of the three Lingyun Palace people she had seen in the academy base, a middle-aged man with short silver-gray hair.
Qin Tian couldn't stand the other party's silence a little, and asked in a respectful and trembling whisper, "I don't know what the so-called matter of your lordship this time." If there's anything I need to do, please do whatever you want. ”
The person who came put down the teacup, his face sank like water, he glanced at the corner of the room casually, and then turned his eyes back to glance at Qin Tian, who was trembling, and said with disdain: "Our Lingyun Palace has never interfered in the internal affairs of the major empires, you don't need to be so alarmed." I'm just here to ask about something, you just have to answer honestly. ”
Qin Tian calmed down a little when he heard the meaning of the words, and immediately greeted him with a smile and replied respectfully: "Yes, I absolutely know everything and say everything, please ask."
"Have you seen any traces of birds and beasts here recently?"
"Divine Beast!" Qin Tian exclaimed, and when he saw the displeasure in the middle-aged man's eyes, he immediately reacted. After thinking for a moment, he shook his head helplessly and said, "My lord, I haven't received any news of birds and beasts."
"Really?" The middle-aged man's tone was slightly questioning, frowning slightly, bowing his head and muttering for a moment, and then asked casually: "Has anything strange happened recently?"
"Nothing big has happened lately, the only big thing." A flash of light flashed in Qin Tian's eyes. He smiled coldly and said, "The Liu family has an extra Liu Yuanyi out of thin air, who is the daughter of the traitor Alena who Lingyun Palace sent people to hunt down a long time ago. At a young age, he had already reached the strength of the eight-star of the royal rank, and he had also won the ...... of the holy rank."
The middle-aged man glanced at the viciousness in Qin Tian's eyes, and pulled the corners of his mouth disdainfully. Said lightly: "I know her matter, our Lingyun Palace will deal with it, don't bother you about this matter for the time being, if there is news of the divine beast recently, go directly to the Water Pavilion to inform us."
After the man finished speaking, he flicked the sleeves of his robe and disappeared into the night like a ghost.
Qin Tian's eyes were gloomy as he stared in the direction of the man's departure, his fists clenched, and he snorted coldly through gritted teeth. The people of Lingyun Palace may not be too arrogant.
In the shadow of the corner, a secret door was slowly pushed open. An emaciated figure walked over slowly, and the person who came looked at Qin Tian with an unhappy face, frowned slightly, and said, "I feel that he has found me."
Qin Tian turned his head to stare at the person beside him, was silent, and said coldly after half a sound: "Elder Liu." I remember saying that it was best not to contact you in the near future, and I don't know why you made this trip again. ”
"Hmph, you promised to kill Liu Yuanyi's cheap girl, but what's going on now, that girl is alive and well, but my granddaughter is dead." Liu Wedge snorted coldly, and the more he spoke, the more excited he became.
Qin Tian's face turned completely cold. shouted loudly: "You think I don't want to kill that girl, Chu'er has no trace until now, the last time was a conflict with that girl, my son's disappearance must have nothing to do with that girl, as long as I think of it, I want to break that girl's body into thousands of pieces." However, if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan. Don't worry, when the big thing is done, I will definitely crush that girl's bones and ashes after the banquet. You go back and wait for the news first, and we'll send you a message as soon as we're done. You just do it right away. As long as you stabilize the Liu family and secretly solve Liu Lie's cronies, you will be the next head of the Liu family before long. ”
Liu Wedge stroked his long white beard, a touch of greed flashed in his eyes, his expression had completely calmed down, and he said slowly: "Don't worry about the Liu family, it's all under my control at present, I've already taken care of everything on the Liucheng side, and that old guy is estimated to be not far from death now."
"That's good, I'll definitely clean up Liu Yuanyi's girl." Qin Tian's face softened.
"I hope you do what you say." After Liu Wedge said coldly, he nodded at Qin Tian, didn't say anything more, shook the cloak behind him, and his figure flickered like a breeze in the dark night.
Just as the silver-gray short-haired man was interrogating the Qin family, the other two middle-aged men in dark red robes interrogated the Liu family and several other imperial capital families.
Water Pavilion - the largest restaurant in the imperial capital, the wine in the hall is fragrant, all kinds of noisy noises are endless, and the backyard accommodation area. In the small courtyard, which seemed to be extraordinarily quiet, three middle-aged men in dark red robes gathered together.
One of the tall middle-aged men whispered in a thick voice: "My lord, I have asked a few big families, but no one has noticed any traces of the infestation of the divine beast."
Another tall and thin middle-aged man then reported in a low voice: "I also asked the Liu family and several others, but I didn't notice anything unusual, recently the imperial capital has squeezed in a lot of outsiders because of Dabi, will adults be the reason for these people."
The silver-gray short-haired man pondered for a moment and said in a cold voice: "The spirit exploration bead rewarded by the palace master shows that the aura of the divine beast was exposed more than half a month ago, and Dabi is a recent period, so the appearance of the divine beast should have nothing to do with this Dabi." There is no longer any breath of the divine beast on the spirit bead, either the divine beast has left the nearby range or the divine beast has completely hidden the breath, after all, this divine beast has a treasure with hidden breath on its body. ”
The rough and tall man frowned, and asked with a somewhat dazed expression, "Then my lord, what should we do next?"
The silver-gray short-haired man glanced at the tall and thin man on the side, looked at the spirit bead in his hand, and ordered in a cold voice: "Ling Hu, you immediately set off back to Lingyun Palace to report the matter of Palace Master Liu Yuanyi, Ling Qi, you stay and I continue to investigate the matter of the Qingluan Divine Beast, if there is no news, we will leave in a few days."
"My lord, that Liu Yuanyi is just a yellow-haired girl, and it was a long time ago, so it is necessary to ......be in such a hurry," Ling Hu, a middle-aged man with a rough and tall appearance, muttered with some dissatisfaction.
The silver-gray short-haired man glared coldly, and said sharply: "Do what I say, Elena's matter has affected the people above, you think we can treat it sloppily." You immediately get up and go back to Lingyun Palace. ”
