693 - And the Inhumans

Shen Xiping, who heard this voice, perked up, and hurriedly shouted, Brother Ning, I'm fine.

After learning that Shen Xi was safe, Ning Xi also breathed a sigh of relief, took a new spear from the hand of the sergeant on the side, shouted, and rushed towards the courtyard.

The remaining giant stared blankly at Ning Xi who rushed over, and before the two met, Ning Xi let out a loud shout, jumped up in the air, and stabbed with a spear.

As the leader of the younger generation in Sui Yang, Ning Xi's strength cannot be underestimated, his gun is tricky and eccentric, and he simply gives full play to the explanation of the gun of the thief among soldiers.

After only three or two rounds of fighting with that giant, with a poof, Ning Xi pierced the giant's throat with a shot.

With a swipe of the gun, Ning Xi walked towards Shen Xiping.

The giant's corpse fell to the ground.

Coming to Shen Xiping, Ning Xi looked up and down, and before he could speak, Shen Xiping asked first, "Brother Ning, how do you know that I am here?" โ€

Ning Xi scratched his head: "The soldiers told me that there have been a lot of missing cases in Daxing City, and some of them have seen the prisoners entering and leaving this house, and in addition, the brother who followed me has not seen anyone for two days, I think something will happen, so I will take the team to investigate, Brother Shen, what is going on with these giants?" โ€

Shen Xiping stood up on the ground and glanced at the giants: "These guys are prisoners." โ€

Ning Xi couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, good guy, it's not easy to see a person who is too tall, but it's good now, I saw several at once.

Shen Xiping suddenly understood, turned his head to the corridor and said, "There, there is another one who was kicked and broke his leg by me." โ€

As soon as Ning Xi heard this, he waved his hand left and right, and seven or eight soldiers walked by on both sides, went to the corridor, tied up the giant who Shen Xiping kicked and broke his leg, and asked Ning Xi what to do.

Ning Xi came to see Shen Xiping.

Shen Xiping lowered his head and pondered for a while, and then said, "Let's send it to the barracks first, and after our brothers report to the top, we will hand it over to the Criminal Department." โ€

Ning Xi nodded: "Cheng." โ€

After finishing the matter, Shen Xiping felt that his whole body was abnormally sore, he endured the pain to Zhou Baiyu's side, and said to her: "Sister, I'll send you back first." โ€

Zhou Baiyu was stunned by Shen Xiping's heroic actions before, and after listening to Shen Xiping's words, he hurriedly nodded.

When Zhou Baiyu was sent home and Shen Xiping returned to his house, it was almost dawn, and he just wanted to lie down and rest, when he heard a few rooster crows.

Hearing the rooster crow, Shen Xiping sat up again.

The early dynasty is about to start, and he is a Zhonglang general, so he should go to the court, although he doesn't have anything to say, but he still has to go.

So, Shen Xiping waited for the early dynasty time to come.

In the middle, Ning Xi came over, the two of them waited together, when they felt that the time was almost up, the two of them stepped on their horses and headed towards the palace, and when they arrived at the gate at noon, they heard the bell ringing in the palace.

This means that in a quarter of an hour, the early pilgrimage will begin.

The officials waiting outside the noon gate all walked towards the palace one after another, Shen Xiping and Ning Xi were mixed in the crowd, looked left and right, and then Ning Xi asked: "Brother Shen, who should we report to those prisoners?" โ€

When Ning Xi asked, Shen Xiping was also stunned.

It stands to reason that this matter should be reported to the bosses of the two, that is, Wang Xiaolai and the Eight Sages Wang, the first and second leaders of the military.

But coincidentally, these two are not there, and the highest-ranking military in the current court is Cai Bingwen, the general of Zhendong.

But the two are not Cai Bingwen's subordinates.

At the moment, he was hesitating, and he heard a sound next to him.

As soon as Shen Xiping turned around, he saw that it was Liu Maolin, the old Xiangguo, and hurriedly bowed his hand to worship: "I have seen the old Xiangguo." โ€

Ning Xi also followed Shen Xiping's example.

Liu Maolin waved his hand, motioned for the two to stand up first, and then glanced at Shen Xiping.

The latter's face was still bruised from the vicious battle with those giants yesterday, so he hissed and asked, "Shen Xiping, are you causing trouble in Daxing City again?" โ€

Shen Xiping looked curious: "No." โ€

Liu Maolin pointed to the scars on Shen Xiping's face: "Then what's going on with these injuries?" โ€

Shen Xiping scratched the wound in embarrassment: "Old Xiangguo, it's a shame to say that this was left over from the battle with the thief." โ€

"Thieves? What thief? Liu Maolin was curious.

Shen Xiping told Liu Maolin about this matter as it was, and the latter was also taken aback when he heard it: "How many giants are more than a foot tall? โ€

Shen Xiping nodded: "Ah, one of them was captured alive by our brothers, and the others are dead." โ€

Liu Maolin lowered his head and thought for a long time, and then said: "Okay, I know about this matter, I will deal with it, you don't have to worry about it." โ€

Shen Xiping and Ning Xi glanced at each other and smiled: "Then it will be troublesome for Lao Xiangguo." โ€

Liu Maolin smiled and didn't speak.

Originally, Liu Maolin just planned to deal with him as an ordinary prisoner, but when he went to court, he thought about it for a long time, how to think, how to think that those giants were a little strange.

Generally speaking, people can be about seven feet tall, even if they are burly, Shen Xiping's eight-foot height can be said to stand out from the crowd, and even taller, such as Wang Xiaolai's rammer called Iron Hammer, a nine-foot figure.

On the top, there are almost none.

But what Shen Xiping said is a height of one zhang upward, which is too unreasonable.

Thinking about this in his heart, when he went to court, Liu Maolin seemed to be in a trance.

The empress saw that he was running away, but she just thought that Liu Maolin was worried about the construction of the Saibei Promenade and the conscription of soldiers these days, so she hesitated a little and decided to tell him about the stranger.

made up his mind, and after staying in the next court, he asked Narcissus to call Liu Maolin.

Leaving aside how polite and cumbersome the monarch and ministers were for the time being, both of them sat down, and opened their mouths at the same time: "Lao Xiangguo (Your Majesty), I (Lao Chen) have something to say." โ€

When the words fell, the empress paused for a moment, and then smiled: "Old Xiangguo will speak first." โ€

Liu Maolin thought about it, and told him what Shen Xiping told him before going to court, and after finishing speaking, the old man couldn't stop hissing and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that there must be something strange about this matter." โ€

The empress was also taken aback, she heard Wang Xiao say that those strangers were at least one foot tall, and they were covered with hair.

If at the beginning, the empress could be suspicious of Wang Xiaolai's words, then now, after learning the news that there are strangers in Daxing City, the empress has to believe it.

"Old Xiangguo, what I want to say is also this matter."

Liu Maolin frowned and looked at the empress.

The empress took a deep breath and revealed the existence and disposition of the Inhuman.

Liu Maolin was shocked when he heard this: "Your Majesty, could it be that the construction of the Saibei Corridor, the recruitment of troops throughout the country, and the collection of wartime materials are all because of the aliens who are about to invade?" โ€

The empress nodded: "Xiao Laizi said, there is only one year for Yiren to go south, and now, it is already mid-July, and most of the time has passed since the year that Xiao Laizi said..."

Liu Maolin: "ยทยทยท"

"Your Majesty, what about the stranger that Shen Xiping and Ning Xi caught last night?"

"Xiao Laizi said, the invasion of the Inhumans is closely related to the awakening of their leader Shengjun, these Inhumans who infiltrated Daxing City are probably to let their leader awaken and come to Suiyang to collect enough blood, after all, the grassland herdsmen have been relocated to the territory of Suiyang." Empress Dao.

Liu Maolin's face was gloomy: "Your Majesty, if that's really the case, I'm afraid that there are strangers and companions in Daxing City." โ€

The empress's face changed.

Liu Maolin said: "These days, when the old minister and the household department Lu Shangshu counted the taxes of the last quarter, they found a lot of tax evasion by the people. โ€

What a smart person the empress is, she understands when she thinks about it: "What does Lao Xiangguo mean that those people were harmed by strangers?" โ€

Liu Maolin nodded: "Other than that, the old minister can't think of other reasons. โ€

With a bang, the empress slammed hard on the dragon book case: "These damn guys, narcissus." โ€

When the empress and Liu Maolin said these words, Narcissus was next to her, so she heard them all.

"The minister is here."
