PS: Thank you for your reward and support, and I hope you can support this book a lot, the doll is grateful!

Walking on the bustling streets of Daming, Li Yi and Hua Manlou, who are all dressed in white and have handsome faces, have become an extremely eye-catching scene, attracting the surrounding streets or women in the house to pay their attention to the two of them, although the two are eating rock sugar gourds that are seriously inconsistent with the elegance of the two at this time.

Spit the small nucleus in his mouth on the silk handkerchief, Hua Manlou asked Li Yi, who was looking around, "Brother Li, why are we going to those places these two days? Could it be that these have anything to do with what Lu Xiaofeng is investigating?"

In the past two days, except for the first half of the day, Hua Manlou took Li Yi to visit the Ming Kyoto, and the rest of the time was dominated by Li Yi, who took Hua Manlou to investigate around.

Li Yi retracted his gaze and said softly: "It's not certain yet, but as long as we find another person, it can basically be clear." ”

"Oh, who are you recruiting?" Hua Manlou also asked.

"Pingnan Shizi" Li Yi said slowly.

Li Yi also sighed slightly in his heart at this time, he only knew about the battle of the Forbidden City in the past, but he didn't know much about the specific reasons and process, and it was really a little troublesome to investigate.

Hearing Li Yi's words, Hua Manlou frowned slightly, "But isn't the prince of Pingnan in Yueyang, where the king of Pingnan is located?"

Li Yi shook his head: "As early as a week ago, he had already secretly come to the capital. ”

Hua Manlou thought about it for a while, but he never connected the decisive battle and the places investigated in the past two days with the prince of Pingnan, and felt that what he was investigating now was completely different from the decisive battle.

However, Hua Manlou has never been an annoyance, even if he is curious in his heart, he believes that after meeting the prince of Pingnan, Li Yi will naturally tell him about it.

"By the way, Brother Hua, I wonder if you are good at some tricks similar to ****?" After eating the last rock sugar gourd, Li Yi suddenly asked.

Although he didn't know why Li Yi asked like this, Hua Manlou still nodded, "I didn't have to do it before, and I studied some side doors, and I know a little bit about this." ”

"That's fine. Li Yi nodded, "Wait a minute, after knocking on the door, you can help the person who comes out, and then let him come out alone, I have something to ask him." ”

Hua Manlou tilted his head, still a little **, but still nodded, "I know." ”

After nine bends and eighteen bends, the two stood in front of a small courtyard that looked inconspicuous but was extremely remote, and Li Yi stepped forward and knocked lightly on the door a few times.

After a while, an old man opened the door from the inside, and when he saw the imposing and handsome two, he was slightly stunned, and then bowed down and asked, "What is the matter with the two sons?"

Li Yi smiled lightly, "Hello, I'm looking for Jiang Zhuohuai." ”

The old man shook his head, "The two sons have found the wrong place, and the place where the left turn in front is Jiang Zhuohuai's home, but the family traveled far away a month ago." ”

"Oh! That bothered. Li Yi said as he lightly touched Hua Manlou.

The latter instructed, and the next moment, Li Yi felt that the eyes that had not had the slightest oracle from Hua Manlou seemed to have a whirlpool at this moment, and people couldn't help but be intoxicated.

Fortunately, the target of Hua Manlou now is not Li Yi, and after being shocked in his heart, he immediately woke up and directly withdrew his gaze.

It was only about a minute, and Hua Manlou nodded to Li Yi and signaled that it was okay.

Seeing this, Li Yi and Hua Manlou turned around, but the old man didn't feel the slightest feeling, and closed the door after the two left.

At the moment when the door was closed, a person appeared behind the old man, "Who is it?" and his voice was sharp, which was not at all a normal man's voice.

The old man turned around and bowed and said, "I was looking for Jiang Zhuohuai's family in front, but I think this alley is too winding, so I found the wrong one." ”

The former nodded, "Be careful today, don't let strangers enter the courtyard." ”

"The Little One Knows"

Sitting in the restaurant, looking at the table full of dishes, after a rough taste, Li Yi lost interest, and finally picked up the wine glass and drank it.

After more than ten years of development, the fine wine created by Li Yi has spread all over the countries of Tianlan Continent, even some remote and small countries.

When sunset came, and there were two guests in the restaurant, Li Yi and Hua Manlou, a person shrouded in black robes entered the restaurant step by step and went straight to the location of Li Yi and the two.

Glancing at Hua Manlou, the latter chuckled and nodded, proving that it was the old man in the afternoon.

Li Yi smiled, but he didn't expect that just by saying it, Hua Manlou would take into account the places he didn't pay attention to, and Li Yi also began to understand why Lu Xiaofeng liked to bring Hua Manlou in many investigations, in addition to his strength, it was indeed very worry-free.

After the old man sat down, Li Yi went straight to the point and asked, "What is the matter with the prince of Pingnan quietly coming to the capital this time?"

"I don't know, the matter of the prince has been very mysterious in recent years. The old man's speech was not as natural as in the afternoon, and his tone was full of sluggishness, which was really a reaction after being **.

Li Yi didn't care about this answer, and after slowly drinking a little wine, he continued: "Is there anything wrong with the prince of Pingnan recently?"

"No, the prince has been the same for the past three years, he doesn't like to go out very much, and he wears a veil even in the house"

Hearing this, Li Yi waved his hand and didn't let the old man continue, but asked, "Are you saying that your son doesn't like to go out much in the past three years?

"Yes!" the old man's voice remained blank.

Li Yi pointed to the table with his index finger, "It's interesting! In the palace, they are all masked."

Hua Manlou was also puzzled: "This is a little strange, as far as I know, the prince of Pingnan has been reckless and lustful since he was a child, and he has been nostalgic for the land of fireworks every day before he is an adult, and the wind reputation is extremely bad, how can there be such a change in the past three years?"

"I don't know, it's been like this since three years ago, and the prince has been buying a few Mei Ji every once in a while for the past three years, but they were all killed after the waiter's bedtime, and they don't come forward much on weekdays, even if the people in our house are rarely able to see the prince, only"

At this moment, the cold mangs suddenly shot in from outside the restaurant, and the folding fan that Hua Mankou had originally closed suddenly opened, fanning one after another, and dozens of tiny silver needles suddenly appeared in front of Li Yi and Hua Manlou.

A silver needle pierced directly into the old man's head, but in a time when he couldn't breathe, the old man's face that was still intact before instantly turned purple and brown, and he lay on the table.

This cold light appeared too quickly, and it was too secret in this darkness, and the moment Hua Manlou felt it, he only had time to protect Li Yi and himself.

Li Yi and Hua Manlou didn't get up to chase after them, because they knew that even if they went out now, they wouldn't find the slightest.

Looking at the foaming mouth on the table, Hua Man stepped upstairs and put the folding fan on the old man's erection neck to feel it, then frowned and said: "It's already dead, it's such a powerful poison, it can kill people in such a short time." ”

Li Yi, who was also frowning, after looking at the old man, also focused on the silver needles that had been shot down by Hua Manlou before, picked up the silk silk and picked them up and checked them, "The silver needles that attacked us are not poisonous, and the target of the other party is only the people of this Pingnan Shizi." ”

Being able to kill someone in front of Hua Manlou, although it is a sneak attack, it also fully shows that the strength of the other party is definitely not low, and I am afraid it is also among the innate ones.

However, the previous behavior fully proved that he was just attacking the west, but he didn't want to hurt Li Yi and Hua Manlou, and what was revealed in this is worth pondering.

Shaking his head, he threw the silk silk in his hand on the ground, "Let's go! It's just a pity that just when I smelled the key place, an important clue was broken like this." ”

"It's a pity. Hua Manlou also sighed, from Li Yi spent so much effort, and from the afternoon to the evening to know the importance of this old man.

On the way back to the Rouge Pavilion, Li Yi is also full of doubts in his heart now, with the investigation of the past two days, more and more information and characters are involved, "Ye Gucheng, Ximen Blowing Snow, Wang An, Clay Man Zhang, Pingnan Shizi" These people seem to be uninvolved, but Li Yi has a feeling in his heart that he may still have missed something that makes the cause and effect of the whole thing unable to be connected.

It was also at this time that Hua Manlou, who was originally moving forward, suddenly paused, and at the same time, Li Yi's figure also stopped.

Because, in the line of sight, more than ten masked black-clothed men with long knives emitting cold light in their hands were quickly running towards the two of them, and the killing intent was highlighted.

And for the first two, the majestic momentum revealed in the movement also made Li Yi's heart tremble slightly, and he turned out to be a master of the transcendent realm.
