Hu Dao looked at the pet-like little fox that Zhong Ling took out, and called it a demon. If it's not a demon, how can such a small person kill Vientiane in the realm of Wuzun!

"Little fox, show a thunder-swallowing ball to the head of the Hu Dao sect. Zhong Ling said to the little fox with a grin.

The little fox rolled her eyes at Zhong Ling. Ignoring Zhong Ling's rude request, he went to the side and poured a cup of tea and drank it.

"Smack. Hu Dao crushed the teacup in his hand.

"This pet cat of yours actually rolls its eyes at you?" and pours his own tea?" Hu Dao was extremely surprised.

"I'm not a pet cat!" said the little fox slowly, sipping tea.

"Whoa!" Bearded Knife's chair cracked.

If it weren't for the fact that he was a martial artist and reacted quickly, he would definitely have to fall to the ground.

Hu Dao's buttocks just started to descend and was stopped by him, Hu Dao, who maintained a horse walking posture, turned his head to look at Zhong Ling: "You this, what is this demon beast?"

Zhong Ling smiled and said, "He is my friend, a demon king. ”

A full hour passed before Hu Dao stopped turning in circles to observe the raccoon's movements.

"Commander Zhong, what are we going to do next?" Hu Dao asked.

"What other forces are hostile here?" Zhong Ling asked.

"I have very little contact with their people, the closest is Vientiane. He himself was killed by you. I know that there is also a flower full of flowers. ”

"What kind of person is this flower man?"

"He, the person in charge of the first force in Wanhua City, has a lot of influence in both business and political circles. The skill is not very high, but it has cultivated a secret force to do some shady things!"

"Do you mean his killer?"

"Yes, there are basically no people who dare to provoke them in Wanhua City, and those who have done so are already dead. ”

"He's so murderous?"

"The Hua family has been in Wanhua City for a long time, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is deeply rooted. So his killer can be almost anyone in town. It's unpredictable. ”

"Then it's a little difficult to solve the hidden danger of Hua Manman! Is it useful to kill him directly?"

"Hua Man is full of viciousness, and for his own safety, he has several stand-ins. Not I have no way of knowing which one is the real him. ”

"Then I'll kill all these flowers, regardless of which one is real and which is fake!"

"You don't have that many chances. If you touch one, you won't be able to stay in Wanhua City. What's next?"

Zhong Ling became distressed: "Killer, stand-in! ”

The little fox sat down on the table and asked, "So he doesn't have any weaknesses?"

Hu Dao shook his head, he hadn't heard of any weaknesses in Hua Manman.

I thought about it for a long time, but it didn't come to fruition.

When Zhong Ling received a reply from the imperial capital Qiqi, he asked Hu Dao's family to be secretly transferred to the military. The three of them went to Wanhua City to have a look at it on the spot.

Without saying a word all the way, they came to Wanhua City on this day.

After a simple disguise, Hu Dao and Zhong Ling's current identities are a pair of traveling father and daughter.

The City of Ten Thousand Flowers is in the southern part of the empire, and it is true that flowers bloom in all seasons. The ubiquitous beauty of flowers and the scent of flowers are the hallmark of this city.

The two of them didn't ask about anything about Hua Manman, and completely made themselves a traveler. Even so, as Martial Venerables, they still felt the mental fluctuations that secretly observed them again and again.

And so it went on for three days.

Zhong Ling's patience was almost exhausted.

"When will we have to wait until there is a way to go on like this?" Zhong Ling complained after checking that there was no one around.

Hu Dao's brow suddenly raised.

"Lord Zhong. ”

"Don't call me that anymore, like how old I am. Just call me by name!"

"Yes, Zhong Ling, if you encounter something that can't be solved, how do you usually deal with it?"

"I can handle the matter until I hit it!" Zhong Ling wondered how Hu Dao could ask such a low-level question.

Hu Dao froze when he heard this.

"Maybe I'm not articulate. Let me re-analogize it. For example, if a soldier finds an incident that cannot be solved, their approach is usually to notify their captain, and when the captain cannot solve it, they will notify the captain. You'll be notified of the general's decision at the end of the day, right?"

"Well, that's usually the case. ”

"Then if we let something happen in Wanhua City, this matter has to be decided by the real Hua Man, will those stand-ins go to the real Hua Man to accept his arrangement?"

"Will the stand-in go and find a real full flower?"

"It probably will, because the stand-ins know that they are fake, and as long as the matter is beyond their rights, they have to find the real flower to decide. ”

"It seems to make sense! But what is the event that needs to be decided by Hua Manman himself, and how do we track the stand-in without being discovered?"

"This, I just thought of this, and I haven't thought about it yet. Hu Dao said with an embarrassed smile.

Zhong Ling also smiled: "That's right, we finally have a direction, let's think about what to do next!"

Two days later, Zhong Ling and Hu Dao left Wanhua City and continued their travels in several small towns not far from the city.

After a few more days, Wanhua City was boiling. The entire Wanhua City is lit up with lights, a joyful scene.

Today, the envoy of the empire is coming to Wanhua City to pay tribute to the flowers of Wanhua City.

The information of the empire had already been transmitted to Wanhua City through official channels in advance, so that Hua Manman and the city lord of Wanhua City could arrange a reception.

The people of Wanhua City and the army that maintained order waited on both sides of the clean-cleaned streets early in the morning. Prepare for the arrival of the Special Envoy.

In the morning, the envoy did not arrive. The horses at the gates of the city who were listening to the news came in and out, and kept inquiring about the envoy's itinerary.

At noon, the envoy had not yet arrived. The people, officials and soldiers who greeted them were starving. The city lord had no choice but to arrange for water and food to be delivered.

At dusk, the envoy still hadn't arrived. The people waiting on both sides of the street, except for the soldiers, sat on the ground. Some people can't support it anymore.

Just as the city gate was about to close, a horse came to the city lord and Hua Manman to report closely.

The envoy's team was ambushed in the dense forest eighty miles away, and all the personnel were missing. ”

The city lord was shocked: "What's the matter? ”

"My lord, we have been looking around for the situation of the envoy, and we have checked all the nearby areas many times, but there has been no news of the envoy, so several of our captains went to the farther area to investigate. I found traces of a fight in the mountains and forests almost 80 miles from the city, so I went into the dense forest. The dense forest was full of envoys' honor guards, and all kinds of flags and swords were scattered on the ground. But apart from a few bloodstains, no one was found, neither alive nor dead. ”

"Take me there. The lord of the city immediately got up.

Hua Manman also said: "City Lord, you go first, I will deal with the matter here, and I will go and join you immediately." ”

"Good. "After the lord of the city rode away. Hua Manman walked into the door of his yard.
