Chapter 294: Imperial Patrol
When I walked out of the tomb, the cold air outside couldn't help but lift people's spirits. The rescued children were chattering together, and when Xu Ning pulled out the abolished Cui Tong and others, he jumped these children.
"Don't be afraid, they can't hurt you anymore." Xu Ning smiled slightly, and saw Song Tenglong at a glance. Now except for Lin Yue, the others have been rescued.
After working all night and having a fight with others, I finally settled the matter.
From a distance, Xu Ning saw a blue suit and a black suit rushing towards this side.
The person who came was Lan Ruyu and the old man in the coffin, and after seeing the children, he naturally sighed.
More than a hundred children came from different families in Qingfeng City, in addition to the descendants of families like the Zhao family and the Duanmu family, more were children from ordinary families.
After the old man of the coffin looked at these children, he sighed, and there was no need for Xu Ning to say that he also roughly understood what the purpose was.
"Xu Ning, let Lan Yu take Xiao Wu and the others back to settle down first, I am afraid that you and I will be busy for a while, we must send these children back first, and then deal with the remaining four ghosts."
Xu Ning said with a smile: "I just listen to the orders of the coffin grandfather." ”
There was nothing to say at the moment, and he led everyone to the inner city of Qingfeng City.
At this time, Qingfeng City can be said to be a messy scene, except for a few people such as Song Yun who knew that the child was taken away, most of the people lost their children unconsciously. After nightfall, everyone rested, and when they woke up in the morning, they found that the child was gone.
So the women wept and the men sighed. The gates of Qingfeng City's mansion were trampled off, but there were no clues at all, and there was no way to arrest the heavy patrol.
An atmosphere of pessimism and despair hung over people's heads, lingering for a long time and growing heavier.
When Xu Ning and the old man in the coffin appeared on the street with a large group of children, it was not long after breakfast, and this move was like a volcanic eruption or an earthquake rupture, and the entire Qingfeng City was in an uproar.
Xu Ning didn't plan to show up when he came back this time, so he had to put on his makeup again and find a shabby straw hat to cover his head. He looks like a wandering beggar. Anyway, the old man in the coffin was also very inconspicuous. The two stood together until no one doubted it, and no one recognized that the Ninth Young Master of the Xu family had actually returned.
Although the process was messy, the result was not bad, and Xu Ning's worries seemed a little unnecessary, because the children were immediately surrounded when they appeared. People wept with joy. There's time there to see who brought it back. The coffin old man and Xu Ning were sure that there would be no accident after that. Quietly disappeared from the crowd.
In fact, even if Xu Ning said that he saved it, no one might believe it.
In the eyes of snobs, the poor are not even qualified to do good.
Back in the dilapidated shack area north of the city. Xu Ning breathed a sigh of relief, after a busy night's work, his stomach was already rumbling with hunger, and he shouted to ask the old man in the coffin to help him make a bowl of shaved noodles.
"You kid will really enjoy it, my old man is also busy all night, and he still has to serve you." The old man in the coffin smiled and walked to the board.
Xu Ning smiled slightly, noncommittal.
After fighting with the four ghosts, the power in his body due to the cultivation of the "Condensing Mind Technique" became stronger and stronger, and he felt like a ball that would be deflated at any time, unable to control the power that roamed around his body.
And the source of this power is the black round spar in the dantian, which is moving more and more frequently, and if you don't pay attention to it, it will rotate violently, and at the same time produce some power that cannot be vented.
"It seems that only this half of the Divine Condensation Technique is really not good, although I have refined the martial veins and Thunder Emperor in my body, there is one more terrible guy. The second half of the Concentrating Exercises should have recorded the cultivation method of how to control zhì, but it has been destroyed. Xu Ning thought a little depressedly.
After a while, the old man in the coffin brought 20,000 steaming noodles, and the two sat down opposite each other and ate.
"Coffin grandpa, what are you going to do with the rest of the dead ghosts?" Xu Ning asked while eating. In fact, he had a plan in his heart, but he still wanted to hear other people's opinions.
"If you agree, you should hand it over to the Imperial Patrol or the government of Qingfeng City, after all, this is a wanted criminal on the mainland. I've heard that it's not just the human tribes that are capturing them, but the demon tribes, the elven tribes, and even the evil spirit tribes are looking for them. ”
"Isn't it! How can just a few pieces of material provoke so many people? It's unbelievable. ”
The old man in the coffin said: "Xu Ning, you remember, those who do evil are not necessarily powerful people. These guys usually blend in with the crowd, and who knows? Taking advantage of people's kindness to do evil is the worst thing. ”
Xu Ning nodded and said: "Then send them to the empire to patrol where to go, anyway, they are also departments directly under the Dongzhou Empire, to be honest, I can't trust the group of rice buckets in the Qingfeng City Mansion!" ”
These words made the old man in the coffin stunned, and he didn't understand what Xu Ning meant.
It seemed that he knew a lot about the affairs of the Qingfeng City Mansion, and it seemed that he had lived here for a long time.
Xu Ning didn't notice this.
In the past, the name "Xu Ning" in Qingfeng City was known to everyone, thinking that he was an established waste wood who had not yet appeared in his teens, and many martial artists would say when teaching their disciples: "If you don't practice well, do you want to learn Xu Ning in the future?!" ”
Later, after Xu Ning entered Rashomon, some important events happened one after another, which made people look at this former "young master of waste firewood" with admiration, and some martial artists encouraged disciples with poor qualifications to say: "Don't be discouraged, Xu Ning was not as good as you back then!" ”
However, there are not many people who have really seen Xu Ning himself, especially after his father died in the wilderness, he is even more taciturn and simple, and even the new subordinates of the Xu family don't know him.
After breakfast, Xu Ning made a simple arrangement, touched the only remaining dozen gold coins on his body, and went to a ready-to-wear shop to buy a set of clean and decent clothes and a hat to cover his face.
Armed with a body, suddenly the figure is more erect! The whole body exuded a heroic spirit, and the old man in the coffin also felt an unusual courage!
"This son is no ordinary person!"
What others think of himself, Xu Ning didn't have time to pay attention for the time being, and after cleaning up his rope, he hired a carriage with the only two gold coins left on his body, threw Cui Tong and the others on it like dead dogs, and drove towards the city center from the dilapidated and low buildings in the north of the city.
His destination is to patrol and conquer the Empire.
Walking on the streets of Qingfeng City during the day, Xu Ning couldn't help but feel comfortable.
The Dongzhou Empire, thousands of miles long, including mountains and rivers, canyons and deserts, forests and grasslands, the scenery is different, the customs and habits shaped are not the same, Qingfeng City and other cities scattered in the Dongzhou Empire, it is not too big, but it is located in the hinterland of the empire.
To the west is the dense forest, wild and arrogant, and the Qilin Mountains are dangerous and dangerous at any time, and the back is a huge swamp, and you can reach a large lake if you continue to move forward, the water is wide and the fish are fertile, and the scenery is beautiful, and the south is an endless plain, where the rice is fragrant, the livestock are thriving, and the food planted and bred by the farmers is continuously transported to Qingfeng City, nurturing every life in this city.
Directly to the east, is the main gate of Qingfeng City, and the east of the city is also the most prosperous place, almost all the major families gather here, except for Xu Ning, as if he sincerely wants to be incompatible with them, located in the west, close to the Qilin Mountains.
Many people are proud to live in the eastern part of the city, as if they were nobles.
As soon as there were too many people, it would look crowded, Xu Ning followed behind the carriage, lowering his head and covering his face with a hat. Although Qingfeng City is very large, with a combined population of no less than 10 million, in this small place in the city, the circle is still very small, and it is inevitable to meet people you know. The carriage was covered with a large cloth and was stained with oil, and it shuttled through the crowded streets, causing dissatisfaction among many people.
Xu Ning glanced at these snobs and shook his head, he was too lazy to talk nonsense with them.
Smart people never tell the garbage to distinguish between true and false, right and wrong, because garbage is garbage, and after arguing for a long time, they are easy to assimilate.
Although most of the eastern part of Breeze Castle is lively, there is one place that stands out from the crowd.
Bypassing three streets, on a wide street not far from the city gate, the rest of the place was full of people coming and going, but there was not even a single figure at one intersection.
It's deserted like a cemetery outside.
No signboards, no plaques, no hints.
But anyone with a little brain will not go to this street, even if they are full, they will not die and have nothing to do.
This is the patrol prison set up by the Dongzhou Empire in Qingfeng City.
In the Dongzhou Empire, you don't know who is in charge of the royal family, or you can ignore the idiots in the government, and it doesn't matter if any other armies and officials ignore them.
However, it is impossible not to raise awareness of the organization of the Imperial Patrol.
In the Dongzhou Empire, there are two of the most rigorous institutions, one of which is, of course, the army, the royal family of the Dongzhou Continent stipulates that everyone has the obligation to fight, and every year they will select strong people from the major families to serve, Xu Ning's father Xu Lie participated in a lot of battles. Therefore, the actual role of the army is to deal with external enemies.
The other organization, although not as many as the military, is the most well-organized and efficient! That's the Imperial Patrol!
The Imperial Patrol, also known as the "Golden Dragon Commander", is a guarantee of safety in the eyes of ordinary people, and it is the embodiment of justice, especially the patrol organization of the Dongzhou Empire, which is known for its domineering and ferocious.
Complete the mission, by any means! That's their motto!
For the Dongzhou Empire, this organization that hunts and captures criminals to the outside world is like a ghost, and the real basis for proving its existence is the prison that appeared in various cities. (To be continued......)
