Chapter Fifty-Six: The Night Detective
The method of beating the drum is set up by the giant emperor and the big leader of this world, there are a total of 9981 big drums, and the Fuyun Mountain Range goes down to the camp slope to the top of the giant emperor, and every cottage is set up.
When the drum beats at a certain frequency, it will cause the vitality of the drum to fluctuate, creating a light-gathering effect, thus lighting up a dazzling spark at the top of the mountain.
The louder the drum, the larger the spread, and the more sparks can be lit up. The people and horses of the ninety-nine eighty-one village, when the sun rises out of the mountain and the dawn breaks, whoever lights up the most sparks will own the position of the lord of the mountain.
There are no restrictions on the qualifications of those who participate in the selection.
Below the leader of Shuai Feng, as long as he belongs to the bandits of the Fuyun Mountain Range, as long as he feels that he has this strength, even if he is an unknown little minion, he can beat the drum and compete in the cottage to which he belongs.
This selection method not only elevates the status of the boss of Jiangling and arouses the enthusiasm of the thieves to practice martial arts, but also does not bury the real masters, which is definitely a wise move to kill multiple birds with one stone.
Looking at the scroll in his hand, Han Mo's eyes lit up.
"Tonight, good!"
After determining the time and specific process, Han Mo glanced at the sky that was gradually entering the night, muttered darkly for a moment, and then quickly took out a nocturnal black coat from the warehouse, hurriedly put it on behind him, and sneaked down the mountain in the hazy moonlight.
The drumming will tryouts start at the time of the child, and some time before that, he has a more important thing to do.
This matter is naturally related to Ming Fengyu's problem. This jade pendant had always been his most important thing, and the fact that the woman in the sedan car could cause it to tremble, at least it could show that there must be some connection between the two that he did not know. Since he was implicated, Han Mo had no reason to let it go, he had to make it clear, otherwise he wouldn't feel at ease even if he slew.
Now that the woman had been transported back to Jiangling Village with the darts, Han Mo just wanted to take advantage of the night to go to Jiangling Village to secretly investigate.
The second chain of Jiangling is also known as Huoshan Ridge, and its name is taken from the dead Tian Huo.
This area is a mountain peak gathering area, and the six peaks are fan-shaped, so it is called the six large ring generals. In addition to commanding a large number of Yingpo bandits, the major generals also have an important duty to guard the key points of the floating clouds, which is not only to intercept the caravans coming and going, but also to defend against the strangulation of a large number of foreign imperial troops, so the position of the general mountain lord can be said to be extremely important.
At this time, the bandits on the Six-Dalian Ring General Ridge had already received the news of the generals. The various peaks are lit with fires and lively, and all the men with a little strength are actively making their own preparations.
Only the people of the second peak seem to be a little low-key, and many people in the cottage are dejected without the slightest expression of joy, even if they are willing to compete for the main position of Jiangling, they are only rubbing their fists and feet in secret, and they dare not make any excited moves.
The second peak is naturally the second link under Tian Huo's name, from the top of the mountain to the foot of the mountain are hung with white silk of mourning, and the entire peak is decorated as if it were a cemetery. The hall in the village was full of kneeling spirits, all of whom were crying with teary eyes. When a leader dies, whether they are sincere or false, they need to step forward and set an example of faithfulness.
At the front of the hall, the most crowded place. Liao Xu was holding his hands behind his back, his eyes closed, and receiving the indiscriminate bombardment of many whispers.
"Mr. Liao, you want to avenge my husband! Tian Lang died for your business. In the crowd, a woman with a delicate face complained and cried to Liao Xu.
"Yes! If it weren't for Mr. Liao, his husband would not have been murdered, and we, the weak women, would not have become homeless in the future, and asked Mr. Liao to go to the bloody enemy. Beside the woman, there was another woman who was no longer under her grace.
As soon as the two women spoke, the surrounding crowd immediately responded, and said that Tian Huo's murderer was a heinous crime, as if he had offended Tianyan.
Liao Xu slowly opened his eyes, looking at this group of women with as many as ten of them, his brows furrowed deeply, and he was secretly annoyed: This Tian Huo really deserves to die, usually he only thinks he is a man's true colors, but when I saw his family today, I knew that this person was so greedy, and he had such a number of spoiled wives in his own family, and he didn't dislike it enough.
This time, Liao Xu was able to invite Tian Huo to make a move, and he used a secular divine weapon and a stunning woman to lure him. Only now did he understand why the guy hesitated when he said the magic weapon, but when he told him that there was still the best beauty to give him, he could make a final decision.
"Well, none of the people who dare to offend Young Master Ben have a good end. What's more, Brother Tian and I are still close friends, and this revenge will naturally be avenged. You women don't need to cry, but take care of your future life. Liao Xu responded casually with an impatient expression, and then turned his head to look at the other side, "Uncle Shi, how is the reaction from the giant emperor's side?"
Standing next to Liao Xu was the purple-clothed old man who had reached the Heavenly Realm, and after being warned by Su Lao during the day, he returned to Jiangling Village in advance. At this time, his expression was flat, as if he had already wandered into the world, and ignored the crying in the hall.
Hearing Liao Xu's question, the old man in purple smiled bitterly and said, "How else can you react?" The ink girl was already dissatisfied with Xu'er, and she didn't even let us live in the main peak. Now that this is happening, it is even more difficult to get close to her. What's even more outrageous is that this robbery and killing was seen by Mo Yatou with her own eyes, and she can't be mixed up. Fortunately, we are guests from afar, and they will not do anything drastic. Of course, if you and I make another move, the result will be difficult to say. ”
"Well, this time it was my mistake. However, the little girl really likes to do things too unexpectedly, and last time she noticed that she was a little close to Han Xiaozi's meaning, so she said a run, but she didn't expect this time to be even more outrageous. Hmph, if it weren't for trying to win over her father, how could Young Master Ben have to please her like a peggy dog all day long. ”
Immediately, Liao Xu remembered the previous battle, clenched his fists tightly, and said: "What I didn't expect the most was that the kid surnamed Han had great potential, it was really terrifying, and even my death could threaten me." However, since he has a feud, he must die, otherwise it will definitely be a big problem when he grows up. ”
"Hehe, the old man didn't expect that there were still people in this world who could make Xu'er suffer for you, and even the star treasure given to you by the sect master was lost. Don't worry, unless he doesn't come out of the clouds, he will escape from the old man's palm. ”
"Thank you, uncle!"
The old man in purple shook his head slightly and said, "This is just the old man's business, and you don't have to be polite." The Sect Master is quite concerned about the power of Fuyun, so what you need to pay attention to most now is how to pull back Mo Xin's mind. This is very necessary for our future plans. ”
Xu'er understood. ”
While Liao Xu and the two were discussing the plan in a low voice, Han Mo sneaked into the mountainside very smoothly.
Today is the sacrificial day of Tian Huo's death, and everyone in the Lingzhai is depressed, and there is no longer the usual vigilance, and no one can imagine that there will be people who will come to explore the mountain at this moment.
"Where the hell is it?" Han Mo frowned and looked around, seeing that there were figures flickering everywhere, and he had to hide his figure again.
The Lingzhai is not as good as the camp slope, and the number of people is definitely above 10,000 to be called a word. Moreover, everyone is an elite, and everyone is a good hand in the camp slope, even if it is scattered all over the mountain, its density is quite considerable, and Han Mo cannot be careless. Even if he wasn't worried about being besieged, it wasn't a good thing to alarm that Heavenly Realm old man.
He had already searched some of the houses in the thieves' den that seemed to be able to lock people, and several carriages that carried darts were also searched in the warehouse in the backyard, but he did not see the woman he was looking for. Now there is only one place that has not been investigated, and that is the central location where the Lingzhai Hall is located.
"The number of people gathered in the direction of the central hall is probably as high as two thousand, and the old guy from the Heavenly Realm is most likely there, so this matter seems to be a little difficult to handle. Han Mo stared at the hall, thinking hard about countermeasures.
After a while, he found that there were two patrolling bandits not far in front of him who were slowly approaching his hiding place, and Han Mo suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind.
"Hehe, I almost forgot my biggest advantage. The corners of Han Mo's mouth twitched, and he smiled smugly in his heart.
When the visitor reached the shadow in front of him, he rose up as fast as he could, raised his fingers, and pointed straight at the sleeping hole on the necks of the two of them. After the subtle crisp sound of "pop, pop", the two patrol bandits, who had not yet understood the situation, had fainted and collapsed.
Immediately, Han Mo pulled it casually and hid the person in the dark.
After a few breaths, a slightly emaciated figure walked out of the darkness again, and it was one of the two bandits before, but it was a little darker compared to Fang Cai, needless to say, it was naturally Han Mo. The effect of changing muscles and bones that comes with reaching the seventh physical body realm can come in handy in this case.
Although the color of the skin cannot be changed, the appearance is like a brother printed in a mold, and even friends who are close to him cannot be seen for a while.
After half a pillar of incense, Han Mo walked into the central hall with the flow of people, and the first person who caught his eye was his old acquaintance Liao Xu. At this time, he was whispering in a corner with the old man of the Heavenly Realm.
Sensing that someone was watching, the old man in purple noticed it slightly, raised his head and glanced at the door of the hall slightly, and saw that it was just an ordinary bandit member in the village, so he didn't pay attention.
"It's amazing, the Heavenly Realm really deserves to be the Heavenly Realm, and the spiritual sense is really sensitive. Han Mo's heart tightened when the old man in purple looked at him, but on the surface, he looked calm, and waited until the old man turned his head before he quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
However, what puzzled him was that this hall was obviously Tian Huo's mourning hall, and there were many people who came and went to offer incense, and there were many family members kneeling in the center, but he still didn't find the object he was looking for.
Seeing that the people around him had slowly walked towards Xiangzhu, Han Mo didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and honestly followed the flow and slowly walked in.
When he arrived at the center of the mourning hall, he caught a glimpse of Liao Xu and the two of them seemed to be finished chatting and were about to turn around and leave. However, the direction of departure is not the entrance of the hall, but a small curtain door on the side.
"It turns out that there is an inner hall here!" Han Mo instantly clarified his goal in his heart.
