Xia Sheng stood at the gate of the Changshui Inn, looking at the billowing smoke and the raging flames, and his heart sank to the bottom for a while.

What happened during his absence?

Was the fire man-made or accidental?

Did Qin Yan and Kang Wuwei already die in the fire, or did they escape?

Also, what about the balls?

Countless questions followed, but Xia Sheng couldn't find a clue.

And in the next moment, right in front of him, the entire Changshui Inn completely collapsed, and thick black smoke rushed to his face, choking people so much that they couldn't breathe.

Xia Sheng covered his mouth and nose, wanting to rush in to confirm the life and death of Qin Yan and Kang Wuwei at the end, but was suddenly grabbed by a hand.

Xia Sheng turned his head and immediately saw a familiar face.

"Ning Zheng?"

"Follow me!" Ning Zheng pulled Xia Sheng without saying anything and stepped back.

Although Xia Sheng was anxious in his heart, he calmed down well, and did not ask more, but followed Ning Zheng's footsteps, blended into the wave of panicked people on the street, and ran towards the street corner.

After running a distance of nearly 100 zhang, the two finally stopped at a corner.

Ning Zheng finally took a breath, and then slowly spoke: "Before you came back, I saw Miss Qin leave the inn with Master Kang, but at that time, the town was already in chaos, there were too many people on the street, and I couldn't keep up with them. ”

Hearing this, Xia Sheng finally breathed a sigh of relief, but wondered: "Is it just the two of them?

Ning Zheng shook his head: "I, I don't know." ”

Xia Sheng's eyes were solemn, he wasn't worried, that guy was extremely fast, even if the fire burned in front of it, he would definitely be able to escape in time. It's just that the female killer named Meng Qi was originally seriously injured, although she has regained her consciousness under Xia Sheng's treatment, her body is very weak, and it is even difficult to walk, has she escaped?

Or was this fire originally directed and acted by her?

In order to create chaos and create opportunities for the escape of his companions?

Could it be that she and the two killers who assassinated Ping Nanhou were really in the same group?

In this way, Xia Sheng and his party were completely used by her.

In less than a stick of incense, this thought had already surfaced in Xia Sheng's mind for the second time, but he once again denied it.

The reason is simple.

He is extremely confident in his medical skills.

He believed that Meng Qi's previous injuries were indeed fatal.

No killer would be stupid enough to make such a big bet with his own life.

What if Xia Sheng doesn't know how to do medicine?

What if Xia Sheng and his party don't save them when they see death?

Among them, there are too many factors that cannot be controlled.

If a killer really dares to do this, then he will definitely not live long.

And no matter what, the most important thing now is not to judge the purpose of Meng Qi approaching his group, finding Qin Yan and Kang Wuwei is the first priority at present!

Thinking of this, Xia Sheng immediately asked Ning Zheng, "Is the city gate closed now?"

Ning Zheng shook his head, signaling that he didn't know, and then said suspiciously: "What happened?"

Xia Sheng smiled bitterly: "Just before a stick of incense, Pingnanhou was assassinated by three king-level powerhouses!"

"Pingnanhou?" Ning Zheng was stunned for a moment and said, "It's the task that Meng Qi took before......

"Yes. Xia Sheng analyzed: "Now it seems that Meng Qi is not the only killer who has received a task about Ping Nanhou, and the other party's target is not only Ping Nanhou's daughter, but also himself!"

It's a pity that Xia Sheng has a time gap of five hundred years with this world, and Ning Zheng is just a small strategist in White Horse Town, so the two don't know who Ping Nanhou is, and they don't know why the other party appears in Blackwater Town.

This directly led to Xia Sheng's inability to make an accurate judgment on the current situation.

It's deadly.

Ke Ning Zheng still gave his own advice: "The identities of Miss Qin and Master Kang are not trivial, even if they are taken down and interrogated by the garrison, as long as they show their identities, presumably the other party will not dare to make things difficult, and the first thing we should do now is to protect ourselves." ”

Xia Sheng slowly exhaled a turbid breath: "What do you mean, do you mean that I don't want to go to them?"

Ning Zheng nodded: "Gongzi is different from them, the fact today is too big, I'm afraid it will soon spread out, and if Gongzi reveals his identity at that time, it is likely to attract the attention of the prince!"

Of course, Xia Sheng would not forget where his biggest threat came from now, and after Ning Zheng's advice, he only hesitated a little and made up his mind.

"Well, in that case, let's find a place to settle down first, and then think about it in the long run. ”

Ning Zheng nodded: "Why don't we go to Uncle Li's house first." ”

Hearing this, Xia Sheng couldn't help but sigh: "This matter is a long story, do you know why I would know that this turmoil was caused by Pingnanhou......"

After a while, Xia Sheng took Ning Zheng and deliberately avoided the direction of the search by the private soldiers of the Hou Mansion and the garrison of Heishui Town, came to a long street in the south of the town, and turned into a deep alley, and then randomly selected a house and climbed into it from the wall.

The two did not enter the house to check if there was anyone inside, let alone alarm the owner of the house, but hid in the shade of a begonia tree in the corner.

It was only at this time that Ning Zheng finally couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "I really didn't expect it to be so coincidental! Childe, you actually witnessed the scene of Ping Nanhou being assassinated, and even met with the people of the Adjudication Division!"

Xia Sheng smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The world is unpredictable, but, listening to what you mean, do you know what the Adjudication Division is?"

Hearing this question, Ning Zheng was stunned, and then asked, "Childe hasn't heard of the Ruling Division?"

"Well, in fact, I've only heard of it, after all, White Horse Town is a small place, and there are no important cases or big cases on weekdays, so naturally it won't alarm the Adjudication Division. ”

"If the explanation is simpler, in fact, as the name suggests, the adjudication department is an official office in charge of the criminal code and the main adjudication, formerly known as the Dali Temple and the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but during the reign of Emperor Gaozong, the two were merged, and there is today's adjudication division, whose power is even higher than that of the criminal department, and is directly under the current majesty!"

"It is rumored that Emperor Gaozong once inscribed nine big characters on the stone tablet at the main entrance of the ruling department: All major events in the world cannot be adjudicated!"

Hearing this, Xia Sheng couldn't help but gasp.

He never thought that in today's Dajin Dynasty, such a privileged institution would appear, and it was no wonder that the other party's subordinates were all masters like Brother Jing and Cheng Liran.

In this way, could it be said that Pingnanhou was involved in a big case, so someone wanted to kill him?

Just thinking like this, suddenly, there was a noise outside the house, and then the door was kicked open, and more than a dozen people poured in outside the narrow courtyard gate, all wearing weapons, wearing wallets and leather boots, exuding a bright martial light outside the body, full of killing intent.

Someone shouted, "The adjudication department is in charge, everyone in the house is coming out for inspection!"
