The last half of the sunset on the horizon was about to set, and outside the gate of Araki City, two rows of soldiers in armor were standing, holding spears and constantly urging the people entering the city to speed up, and from time to time they also glanced at the faces of everyone, whether it was mercenaries or passers-by who entered the city, they were unceremoniously reprimanded. Obviously, in this hot weather, these soldiers, who had been standing all day, finally began to complain when they were about to call it a day, and the impatient language knew that they were in a very bad mood as soon as they heard it.

The last passers-by were lining up and slowly walking into the city, and those gatekeepers might want to leave early, and the unceremonious shouting and scolding rang out one after another.

"I said you guys, can you be a little faster, just the slowest of your batch. The leading soldier shouted.

"This, it's obvious that the person in front of you is walking slowly. A mercenary muttered dissatisfiedly.

Hearing the mercenary's words, the soldier's face was instantly gloomy, and he said coldly: "Don't you want to enter the city? I suspect that there are people wanted by us in Araki City. ”

After finishing speaking, the soldiers on the left and right sides quickly put down their spears and crossed in front of these mercenaries, frightening these mercenaries into a cold sweat, and the mercenaries next to them quickly made a look, one of the mercenaries came out and said to the soldiers led by him: "This master, don't be angry, a little heart, it's a loss." ”

If you can't enter Araki City, it means that you have to stay in the wild, and in a place like Araki City, being outside is equivalent to death. Even if it is a mercenary, he does not dare to stay outside the city easily, because the outside of the city at night will be extremely dangerous, unless his own strength is excellent, otherwise it is inevitable that there will be accidents. Therefore, when these mercenaries see that the soldiers are not allowed to enter the city without saying a word, no matter how hot their tempers are on weekdays, they will forcibly give the soldiers benefits with a smile, in order to be able to enter the city.

The soldier at the head took the money bag in his hand, tossed it, and then waved his hand, and the spear that had stopped in front of the mercenaries was picked up again. Seeing this, the people who entered the venue slowly breathed a sigh of relief and continued to move forward.

"The day's work is finally done, and the wanted man has not been found, and it looks like tomorrow is going to be another busy day. One soldier complained.

"Alright, you two close the city gates, and a few of us will go to the tavern in front of us to wait for you. The leader said, then turned and left.

The soldiers entered the city gates, and just as the gates were about to close, a grieving beggar wrapped in a rag and a gray face limped from a distance, and then shouted anxiously: "Wait, there is me, there is me." ”

One jumped from a distance and got stuck in the crack of the door, and the two soldiers who were closing the door saw this and scolded on the spot: "Where did the beggar come from, get away, don't delay the master's time off work." ”

"Two masters, pity the poor beggar, this is a little bit of my heart that I begged during the day, please laugh. No, night is falling, and I just want to find a place to stay, so I should just invite the two of you to have a supper, okay. The beggar said as he cried.

I wanted to refuse such a beggar, but when the two soldiers took the money bag in their hands, their arms sank slightly, their eyes narrowed slightly, they glanced at each other, their faces smiled slightly, and then said: "The benefits were taken by the captain before, let's divide this last wave between the two of us." ”

Another hesitated for a moment and said, "What if this is the person we want and put it in the city?"

"You fool, how can you be wanted? If you don't want it, you can give it to me, and I'll let him in, and I'll take care of it myself." The soldier said with a sneer.

"Okay, okay, let's go in, don't take it as an example. Another soldier said coldly.

When the beggar heard this, he clenched his fists at the two soldiers, and when he lowered his head, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he walked in, and then the city gate was completely closed at this time. The two soldiers looked at the beggar's back, weighed the slightly heavy money bag in their hands, and muttered: "I didn't expect this beggar to be able to ask for so much money, it seems that I won't be able to be a soldier in the future, and it's not bad to be a beggar." ”

"Come on, don't think about it, put away your purse, and go drink. ”

The two soldiers walked shoulder-to-shoulder in the direction of the tavern, and at this time, the beggar walked into a narrow alley, sneered, took off the rag on his body, revealing his shirtless and dark body, perhaps because of staying in the desert for a long time, looking at the greasy skin on his body, he also sighed helplessly.

wiped the dust off his face, and then whispered, "Purple Soul, now that we've come in, what are we going to do next?"

This beggar was Yue Yi, and in the past two days, he kept killing along the way, and then inquired about the news. At first, after learning that he was wanted by the whole city, it was not so easy to enter the city, so I simply waited until the city gate was about to be closed, because this time was also the time when the guards were the most lax, and if you gave a little benefit, you would naturally be able to enter Araki City easily.

"You breathe for a while, and then sneak into the City Lord's Mansion first to find out the news and situation. Purple Soul said.

Yue Yi responded, his hands were sealed into the cultivation state, he kept carrying the black spear on his back for the past two days, although he was used to the weight of the black spear, but his body was still consuming wild qi again, now adjust to the best state first, so as to sneak into the mansion, no one knows if there is a hidden master in this city lord's mansion, you must be ready at any time, as for the green cow, with the strength of its silver body mirror, let it stay outside for a night first.

Late at night, in the city lord's mansion, a group of guards were patrolling the corridor, and when the team of guards just left the corridor, a black shadow flashed, and it seemed that there was no wind or grass left.

Yue Yi, who was hiding in a hidden place, did not have any nervousness on his face, with these guards of the quenching mirror, under his body, it was like a void at all. Yue Yi concentrated his energy and spread the power of the gods, covering the entire City Lord's Mansion, quietly observing the dynamics here.

There are garrisons and patrols all around here, and in the entire mansion, there is a bronze mirror on each side, which is about five times, and it seems that there are no more people available in this Araki City. The further east you go, the more heavily guarded it becomes, and it may be where Ye Xun lives, but it's best to ask first.

At this time, a little maid slowly came from a distance, Yue Yi didn't say a word, directly covered the maid's mouth, and dragged her to the most hidden place.

"Shhhh Yue Yi said viciously.

The little maid, who was still struggling, kept twisting her body and struggling, and after hearing Yue Yi's words, her face turned pale with fright, she nodded hard, and immediately quieted down.

Seeing that the little maid was no longer struggling, Yue Yi also breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked, "Let me ask you, where is your city lord located, and is there a place where you often enter for the first time, answer honestly?"

"In, in the East Courtyard, generally, generally the Lord of the City likes to go to the study. The little maid shuddered, and then said.

"Then where did you city lord go?" Yue Yi asked.

"I'm just a little maid, how can I know the whereabouts of the city lord, I only know that he has something to do. Seeing that Yue Yi wanted to untie her clothes, the little maid hurriedly said: "If you really want to know, go to Master Fan, the city lord still trusts Master Fan after all, he lives in the North Courtyard, I have said everything I should say, you let me go." The little maid looked at Yue Yi with pleading eyes, and said pitifully.

"Well, I know, you should sleep well first, and don't tell anyone else about this, or they won't let you go. Yue Yi nodded and said.

Before the little maid could react, her eyes were dark, and she fainted. Yue Yi gently lowered her, and then walked in the direction of the North Courtyard.

In a place in the north courtyard, there was still a faint light, and a thief-eyed man was counting the finances in the room, this person was wearing a blue robe, and his expression was calm, but when he looked at a large box of wasted coins, his eyes were shining gold, and he kept rubbing his palms.

Bang!

At this time, someone suddenly knocked on the door, interrupting Master Fan's interest, and then Master Fan got up and walked to the door, opened the door and scolded: "Who, it's so late, I don't know ...... Master."

Before Master Fan finished speaking, he saw a person dressed in a rag who appeared in front of him, this person was disgraced, he couldn't see the lineup clearly, and the smell of sweat mixed with the smell of blood made Master Fan a little suffocated, just wanted to scream, his neck was directly choked, and then he was brutally pushed into the door, and Yue Yi closed the door with his backhand.

"Master Fan, now I ask, you answer, if I can't hear the news you want, then I have to break your neck. Yue Yi looked at the thief-eyed old man in front of him, and he looked disgusted, this kind of appearance is simply a corrupt official.

"Yes, yes, I know everything about the hero, and I ask the hero to raise his noble hand. Master Fan's face turned red, his body kept trembling, he finally got the reward of the city lord, he didn't want to die for no reason, he hadn't had time to enjoy the glory and wealth, how could he easily die in the hands of the evil star in front of him.

"Where did your city lord go, what kind of friendship did you have with Tianxing Pavilion, and you sent a few people from Tianxing Pavilion to hunt me down, what's the situation?" Yue Yi looked at Master Fan, whose eyes kept turning, and said with a sneer: "Don't play tricks, I already know half of these questions, if you think you are lucky, even if you tell a lie." ”

Master Fan trembled for a while, the person in front of him was too ruthless, so it was impossible to lie, but if he told the truth, if he let the city lord know, then he would have to lose his head, but if he didn't say it, he would have to lose his head now, and he smiled bitterly, it was still important to save his life, and he just wanted to look at his mouth, but suddenly saw Yue Yi's face change abruptly.

Yue Yi stared at the things on the table, and exclaimed for the first time: "This, how can you ...... here?"
