Chapter Ninety-Seven: Catching Turtles in the Urn

There is an attic in the corner of Linyuan Palace, and the attic is extremely dark and damp, and from time to time there will be black spiders sliding and falling, hanging on the eaves and dangling.

In the attic stood a man in black, his hand behind his back, the jade wrench in his hand rubbing back and forth between his fingertips.

He didn't say a word, as if he was waiting for someone.

After a while, there was a very light footstep from the attic, and the man in black turned around, but the attic was really dim, and the man's face was extremely blurred.

"Childe." The person who came spoke, although his voice was a little hoarse, it was not difficult to hear that it was a woman who spoke.

"How's it going?" The man's voice was deep and magnetic.

"Things have changed, all the female disciples with foreign surnames are gone, and the subordinates suspect that they have seen something wrong."

"All gone?"

"No, the family and the rain that just came a few days ago are still there."

"Then leave her alone."

"But my subordinates suspect it's a trap."

"Just try it." With that, the man handed over a pill.

The woman took the pill without hesitation, fell to the ground, and kowtowed heavily: "Thank you for your adoption for many years." ”

In the women's dormitory, Fuxi, who was pretending to be a young girl, was sitting by the window combing her hair at the moment, while Ji Yan and Meng Ze were squatting on the beams of the house, just waiting for the fish to enter the net.

The hair was combed in a bun and the eyebrows were drawn again and again, but there were still no fish.

Meng Ze lowered his voice and asked, "Brother Ji, could it be that the murderer knows that we are going to arrest him?" ”

"Maybe you already know."

"That'...... Will he still come? ”

"There's always going to be a test, so that's our only chance to catch him."

At this time, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door, and the three of them immediately became vigilant.

The footsteps outside the door were getting closer and closer, and Fuxi, who was sitting below, unconsciously clenched the wooden comb in his hand.

The footsteps stopped at the door, and a small wooden cylinder pierced through the window paper, spewing out a white mist from the small cylinder, and after a while, Fuxi fell heavily on the dresser, and the wooden comb in his hand slipped to the ground with a crisp sound.

The man outside the door waited for a long time, until she made sure there was no sound in the room, and then she put away the small wooden tube and went around to the window.

The wooden window was slowly pushed open from the outside, only half pushed, and a hand holding a sunrise flower reached in, gently put it, and was about to retract it, but was grabbed by Fuxi!

The owner of the hand shuddered, and tried to break free but to no avail.

At this moment, Ji Yan and Meng Ze jumped from the beams of the house, broke out of the window, captured them, and brought them into the house for interrogation.

The sun was about to set, and the remnant sun shone obliquely on the window, reflecting the woman's face unusually cold.

Meng Ze squatted down beside her, reached out and raised his chin slightly to meet his eyes, and said tentatively, "Are you Jiang Lan?" Disciple of the Poison Sect, if I remember correctly, the Linyuan Palace half a year ago? ”

Jiang Lan couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this, and then smiled defiantly: "Senior Brother Meng really has a good memory. ”

Meng Ze's face sank, and he said, "If you tell who is behind the scenes, we will never embarrass you." ”

Jiang Lan sneered: "What? Are you going to interrogate in private? ”

"Miss Jiang, don't forget, if you don't say it, it will be the entire Jiang family that suffers."

Another voice sounded above Jiang Lan's head, and when she looked up, it was a face that she had never seen before, and it seemed to be more dangerous than Meng Ze.

Jiang Lan stopped talking and was ready to die.

Seeing her look like this, Ji Yan already knew that this person was not from the Jiang family.

"It seems that Miss Jiang is planning to keep her mouth shut? You should know that there is a way for you to open your mouth in this Linyuan Palace. ”

Jiang Lan's face changed slightly, and said, "If I say it, can I keep me from dying?" ”

"Naturally."

"Then let me go first."

Ji Yan looked at Fuxi and motioned for him to let go of Jiang Lan.

Jiang Lan stood up straight, cleared the dust on his dress, and said, "Then I will tell you that my master is the city lord of Linyuan City...... Ji Zhen. ”

She didn't know when there was an extra pill in her wrist, and she was about to take it, but she was slapped away by Fuxi on the side, Jiang Lan fell to the ground, spit blood violently, and the pill also rolled to the ground, covered with dust.

Ji Yan smiled, walked over and picked up the pill, and said happily: "Thank you Miss Jiang for providing ......" He leaned close to the tip of his nose and sniffed: "Soul Booster Pill." ”

The Poison Sect of Linyuan Palace has always been famous for making poison and detoxifying, and analyzing this little pill is naturally not a problem. Although it is not difficult to make this soul booster, the recipe of this soul booster is also different according to personal preference.

With this pill, it may be possible to find out who is behind the scenes.

Jiang Lan's face was like ashes when she heard this, she no longer struggled or spoke, although she was alive, she was like she was dead.

At this moment, the previous monk in flower clothes suddenly broke into the door and was looking at the four people in the room, the Zen staff in his hand sank slightly, and there was some doubt in his eyes.

Didn't you say kill only one person?

So who is he supposed to kill now?

Wait, something is wrong, he seems to be seen in the face...... How can I explain to the cabinet master this time?

Simply kill all four people, buy one get three free, it is regarded as a signboard, and it will be easy to do business in the future.

The flower-clothed monk was red-eyed, waved the Zen staff in his hand, and beckoned over with a move to grab the pearl and play the dragon.

Seeing this, Ji Yan took out a jade fan from his waist and greeted him, but he had only fought for two rounds, and he felt a little struggling.

Seeing the situation, Meng Ze joined the battle, and the two worked together to barely reach a draw with the flower-clothed monk.

In his spare time, Ji Yan turned around and shouted: "Fuxi, take her away!" ”

Fuxi had to pick up Jiang Lan and jump out of the window.

The monk saw that he had run away, and his heart was in a hurry, and his moves showed many flaws, and some of them couldn't resist.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ji Yan took out a packet of cartilage powder from his arms, sprinkled it on the monk's face, and exhaled the monk's face with medicinal powder.

Oops, the monk only felt that his body was weak, and the strength he used was not as good as before, so he could only throw the Zen staff forward and flee.

As soon as the monk left, Ji Yan suddenly spat out blood, clutching his chest and gasping hard.

"Ji Gongzi!" Meng Ze grabbed Ji Yan, checked his pulse, and exclaimed, "Why are you so badly injured?" ”

Ji Yan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth: "That monk is really strange, he can still escape if he is hit by my cartilage." ”

Meng Ze couldn't help but sigh: "If I am not mistaken, this person should be the traceless of Yuluo Pavilion, known as a bloodthirsty monk." ”

Traceless came out of the women's dormitory and fled all the way to a camphor tree in the depths of the Linyuan Palace to catch his breath, but in half a pillar of incense, he regained his strength.

At this time, it was already dark, until the candle was lit in the courtyard next door, and he realized that there was a courtyard next to him, and then took a closer look, the person who lit the lamp in the courtyard was the female disciple who picked up the petals of the sunrise flower a few days ago.

Originally, he was going to kill her that day, but as soon as she chased her out, she disappeared, and sure enough, she had no place to find her iron shoes, and it took no effort to get it.

It just so happened that he lost his hand over there today, and the fire in his belly can be regarded as having a place to go.

Without a trace, he jumped down from the tree, and subconsciously wanted to wave the Zen staff in his hand, only then did he remember that the Zen staff was thrown out by him just now, so he had to use his fist.

In the darkness of the night, he walked towards the guards at the gate of the courtyard.
