Volume 2 The Wind Rises and Clouds Ink Spirit City Chapter 116 Black Shadow

Although Xu Yichen really wanted to make a reasonable match through everyone's strengths, Tian Lingling didn't seem to be very willing, and in desperation, they had to choose the most primitive and simplest grouping method of drawing lots.

The result is that Xu Yichen and Shi Qingyun are in a group, and the rest are in a group of three, obviously Tian Lingling is not very satisfied with this result, but this lottery was made by herself and drawn by herself, so she was embarrassed to say that she was unwilling, but the cheeks on both sides were a little bulging.

After dividing the group, Xu Yichen decided to inform the city lord of this matter, after all, people are the hosts, and he is the guest, so it is naturally better not to do the noisy things.

The man in the official uniform readily agreed, and also arranged an inn for Xu Yichen and his party to stay.

The inn is not far from the place where Xu Yichen and their porridge are served during the day, although it is not luxurious, but it is very clean.

After a brief dinner, everyone went back to their houses to make simple preparations.

Soon after Xu Yichen returned to the house, he felt someone knocking on the door gently, followed by Tian Lingling's voice:

"Xu Yichen, I have something I want to talk to you about, is it convenient for you now?"

"Convenient, convenient!"

Xu Yichen opened the door, welcomed Tian Lingling in, picked up the water cup on the table and poured her a glass of water, and said:

"I wonder what the spirit is looking for me?"

Tian Lingling took the water handed by Xu Yichen, drank it all, and said:

"I want to ask you, did you take the initiative to invite Senior Sister Shi Qingyun here?"

"No, she came with me when I was in the tavern for information about the case of the dried corpse. ”

"She proposed?"

"Well, yes!"

Tian Lingling said thoughtfully:

"And that's how you agreed?"

"Well, after all, this kind of thing, I don't know how many enemies I have, it's always good to have more allies!"

"Ally, are you sure it's just an ally, Xu Yichen, you tell me honestly, are you interested in Shi Qingyun?"

Xu Yichen rarely heard Tian Lingling's tone of voice so seriously, and the whole person unconsciously became serious with her:

"Probably not, my feelings for her, how to put it, it's strange, but I shouldn't have reached the point of liking her yet. ”

After hearing this, Tian Lingling took a long breath and said:

"Hmph, I thought you couldn't walk when you saw a beautiful woman!"

Xu Yichen said with a smile:

"Why, am I such a person?"

"Who knows, okay, I'll go get ready, and you'll have to pay attention to your safety when you patrol the city. ”

"Okay, you too, signal as soon as something happens. ”

Tian Lingling walked out of Xu Yichen's room, and after closing the door, Xu Yichen brought himself a glass of water and said to himself:

"Sister Allure, do you have any opinion on this matter?"

Jian Chengcheng suddenly appeared beside Xu Yichen, she was no longer wearing the previous purple clothes at this time, but white clothes similar to Shi Qingyun's, not to mention, this one was really full of fairy spirit on her body.

"I think this girl has taken a fancy to the sword master!"

When he said this, Jian Chengcheng's tone was obviously a little unnatural.

"Hah, Sister Allure, what are you talking about, I'm talking about the dry corpse!"

Jian Chengcheng glanced at Xu Yichen, and his right hand, which was as white as snow, lightly knocked on Xu Yichen's head.

"Sister Allure, why are you beating me!"

"Who told you not to speak clearly, you deserve it!"

"Huh?"

Xu Yichen felt a little confused by the second monk, and Jian Chengcheng sighed secretly, his sword master was indeed very dull in some aspects.

"Sword Master, in my opinion, this matter is very problematic, aside from what you thought before, another thing that is remarkable is that the Sword Lord heard about 8 similar incidents in the tavern, but whether it is the official in the official uniform or the morgue, there are only 7 cases, so where did the other one happen and where is the body?"

Xu Yichen nodded, this matter really needs to be investigated, although it is very likely that those people are mistaken, after all, he has also seen with his own eyes what exaggeration is today.

Xu Yichen had a hunch that if that thing was true, then if it went on at this point, the whole incident would be subverted.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, this time it was Shi Qingyun, she came to call Xu Yichen, because the time to patrol the city was almost up.

Xu Yichen and his party came to the square, and the two teams of soldiers patrolling the city were already waiting there, but when they saw the spirit weapon envoy that the city lord said, a look of surprise appeared on their faces, they never thought that the rumored spirit weapon envoy turned out to be such a few young people.

The inspection team was a group of 10 people, Xu Yichen and Shi Qingyun followed the team that inspected the east and west directions, and the other three followed the team that inspected the north and south directions.

At night, Moling City is very quiet, and there are almost no people walking on the street, which forms a stark contrast between people coming and going during the day, giving Xu Yichen a feeling of visiting the school at night.

Shi Qingyun walked beside Xu Yichen and said:

"Senior Brother Xu, the note tells me that tonight is not peaceful, you must pay attention to safety. ”

Xu Yichen said with interest:

"Okay, it's just Senior Sister Qingyun, can the notes tell you this? This is a big surprise to me, you are too powerful, right?"

Shi Qingyun smiled slightly and said:

"It's not very powerful, I think Senior Brother Xu also has this hunch!"

Xu Yichen waved his hand and diverted the topic:

"By the way, I don't know what you're good at, junior sister, can you tell me first, so it will be much easier to cooperate later!"

"Well, I can't say exactly, but I've seen Senior Brother Xu fight, and I know how to cooperate with you!"

"Okay, then please take care of me!"

"Well, take care of it!"

Today's night sky is starry and hazy, and although there are lanterns hanging on the buildings, the lighting in the city is really not very good.

The east gate had been inspected, and there was nothing special about it, but when they were about to walk towards the west gate, a black shadow flew over the city wall, and it was not long before it disappeared into the market.

Xu Yichen and Shi Qingyun discovered this black shadow at the same time, and the moment he swept down from the city wall, they kicked hard with their right feet, and the whole person was like an arrow off the string, rushing towards the black shadow.

It was so fast that the patrolling soldiers who followed them didn't even react, and they had already disappeared in place.
