Chapter 14: The Crisis (1)
Early the next morning, a group of dozens of people left Tiger Roaring City and Pegasus rushed to Wuhai City. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Lin Yan has lived a very fulfilling time during this time, refining medicine and cultivating correctly, his strength has improved again, and he has cultivated a lot of the five elements evil qi in his body, and if he persists for a while, he believes that he will be able to reach the advanced level of Martial Honor.
Chu Chu has been very happy during this time, and he often has a sincere smile on his face. With "monkey wine" in his body, the family is expected to break away from the control of the Heaven and Earth Alliance; The pills refined by Lin Yan made her earn a lot, and I believe that after a while, even if the family as a whole leaves, the required funds should be able to be solved. The relationship with Xiong Tao is good, and Chu Chu's chances of coming to Lin Yan have also increased, and the medicinal herbs provided have also increased. And the elixirs refined by Lin Yan were all sold by Chu Chu through the Heaven and Earth Alliance Chamber of Commerce, so that the performance of the Heaven and Earth Alliance Chamber of Commerce has been continuously improving in recent times, and Xiong Tao has taken care of Chu Chu even more.
On this day, Lin Yan was refining the "Little Returning Pill", and saw that the pill was about to be baked, and suddenly, the medicine furnace exploded inexplicably, causing a furnace of pill to be lost. Lin Yan was very depressed, he hadn't happened to the fryer for a long time, and he never thought that it would happen today. Looking back, Lin Yan couldn't find the reason, and he was in a bad mood. Forget it, that's all for today, buy the medicine furnace tomorrow and refine it again. Thinking so, Lin Yan cleaned up and walked out of the alchemy room.
After making a pot of tea, Lin Yan sat down on the stone bench in the courtyard to adjust his mood. At this time, the golden snake in his arms came to his thoughts: Big brother, the explosion of the medicine furnace is a bad sign, let's leave this place as soon as possible. During this time, I had an inexplicable sense of crisis, as if a great danger was coming to us.
Xiao Jin, stay for a while, my cultivation is about to break through to the advanced level now, and we will set off again after the breakthrough. If we don't go out during this time, no one should be able to find out about our existence.
Well, big brother. You hurry up and cultivate, anyway, this feeling is really bad, let's be careful.
Got it, Xiao Jin, I'll hurry up and cultivate. After adjusting for a moment, Lin Yan entered the house. Start practicing.
The five-colored evil qi in the dantian coexists in one place and is distinct, and these evil qi are now very strong, almost occupying the dantian. Lin Yan believed that in another half a month, the evil qi would definitely be able to fill the dantian, and the consummation of Wuzun was just around the corner.
Ten days later, a team of people entered the Heaven and Earth Alliance Chamber of Commerce, and Huo Batian finally arrived at Wuhai City with everyone. After briefly inquiring about the recent development of the Chamber of Commerce, Huo Batian and the others did not say much. Come to the backyard and check in.
With so many big people coming to the Wuhai City Chamber of Commerce at the same time, Xiong Tao and Chu Chu were very nervous, for fear that they would be punished if something went wrong. And Chu Chu was even more worried: Could it be that they still have suspicions about Huo Qiu's death, is this here to investigate? It seems that I can't go to Lin Yan's place during this time. Fortunately, I left the "monkey wine" at Lin Yan and didn't carry it with me, if they searched it out, it would be a big trouble.
In the next few days, members of the Chamber of Commerce were called by Huo Batian and others for questioning from time to time, and Xiong Tao and Chu Chu were no exception. The two of them reported what they had seen and heard that day. There is no discrepancy with what Xiao Tianzuo knows.
All of them were asked, and Huo Batian and the others discussed.
"Gou Fugui, Tu Jiao. Did you notice? Huo Batian asked.
"Old alliance leader, the situation is almost the same as what Xiao Tianzuo said, there is no new news." Gou Fugui shook his head and replied.
"Huo Dong, what do you think?" Huo Batian didn't say anything and continued to ask.
"Grandpa, I didn't find anything either. But. I have a conjecture that might work. ”
"Oh, tell me about it."
"The third brother is in the Chamber of Commerce, and there are not many people who can clearly understand his whereabouts, except for the dead Xiao Tianyou and Tian Seng, and the rest are Xiao Tianzuo, Xiong Tao and Chu Chu. The story of the third brother's murder is not a conspiracy. I don't believe it. In this case, I think it was someone who gave the murderer a tip, so that the murderer could grasp the timing so accurately. ”
"According to your analysis, the people who can ventilate the murderer, Xiao Tianzuo, Xiong Tao, and Chu Chu are the most suspicious?" Huo Batian asked.
Before Huo Dong could answer, Xiao Tianzuo stepped forward and knelt on the ground, and said nervously: "The old alliance leader, the fourth prince, if it's not me, I can't do this kind of thing." ”
"I didn't say it must be you, I see that you are nervous." Huo Dong sneered and said, "Get up, don't affect my train of thought." ”
"Yes, Fourth Son." Xiao Tianzuo stood up tremblingly.
Huo Dong continued: "First of all, let's talk about Xiao Tianzuo. He is the personal guard of the third brother, if the third brother has any mistakes, he will be punished a lot, and after the third brother has an accident, he did not think about dodging, and asked the headquarters for help as soon as possible, which shows his loyalty to the alliance, so I don't doubt him. ”
Hearing this, Xiao Tianzuo glanced at Huo Dong gratefully.
"Then the remaining Xiong Tao and Chu Chu are the most suspicious, of course, others are also possible, but we will focus on these two people. I think that during this time, we will send people to keep an eye on them secretly to see what abnormal behavior they have, and maybe we will gain something. After speaking, Huo Dong looked at Huo Batian, waiting for his decision.
Huo Batian thought for a while and said, "Since there is nothing to discover, let's follow Huo Dong's proposal for the time being." Gou Fugui, you stare at Xiong Tao; Tu Jiao, you look at Chu Chu. Always be careful and don't let up. ”
"Yes, old leader." Gou Fugui and Tu Jiao should be.
"Grandpa, that's not enough. If we all stay here, they won't dare to make even the slightest move. Tomorrow we will get up and leave, and then return quietly when we are out of the city, so that they will think that we are really leaving, and then let their guard down. ”
"Very well, that's it. Go and call Xiong Tao and Chu Chu, and I will take care of them for a few words and tell them the news that we will leave tomorrow. ”
"Yes." Xiao Tianzuo went out to spread the word.
After a while, Xiong Tao and Chu Chu followed Xiao Tianzuo in.
"Xiong Tao, Chu Chu, you have taken good care of the Chamber of Commerce recently, and the headquarters is very satisfied, I hope you can make persistent efforts to make greater contributions to the Heaven and Earth Alliance, and don't be affected by Huo Qiu's death, you know. We are only here for routine investigation, and since the situation is consistent with what Xiao Tianzuo said, there is nothing to investigate. We'll be back to Tiger Roar City tomorrow, and you'll still be in care of it. ”
"Yes, old alliance leader, we will do our best to do a good job." Xiong Tao and Chu Chu hurriedly said.
Seeing Huo Batian and the others away, Chu Chu's hanging heart finally landed. These **** are frightened and can't sleep peacefully, so they have to rest and replenish their injured minds later.
Not far from Wuhai City, Gou Fugui and Tu Jiao took the lead in returning; Huo Batian and the others continued to walk forward for another day, and waited until the next day to quietly return. (To be continued.) )
