Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Water Hall Workshop

Zhang Yuelu did not directly inform Bai Yingqiong, but told Mu Yan the news, and explained to Mu Yan, and waited until Bai Yingqiong took the initiative to ask, and then told Bai Yingqiong. If Bai Yingqiong didn't ask, then there was no need to say it.

Mu Yan couldn't help asking, "What about the investigation?" That's it? ”

Zhang Yuelu replied: "Brothers are on the wall, and they are insulted outside." If I can only choose one of the two, I would rather let go of those scum of the Dao Sect for the time being, and save Jinling first. ”

Mu Yan was silent and didn't say anything more.

If Zhang Yuelu's guess is correct, then naturally Jinling Mansion is heavier and the investigation is lighter.

After Zhang Yuelu explained, she raised her chin slightly to Qi Xuansu, who was waiting next to her: "Let's go." ”

Without waiting for Qi Xuansu to reply, Zhang Yuelu had already jumped into the air and flew into the air.

Qi Xuansu injected true qi into the "Taiyi Yunyi", only to feel a rising force from his waist, and then a cloud qi was born around the "Taiyi Yunyi", which made Zhou's body suddenly lighten up and down, and then he was lifted up and flying by this rising force like a goose feather.

To be sure, if the shawl is fastened to the chest strap of the half arm, draped over the shoulder, and twisted between the arms, the lift formed can evenly lift the whole body. At this time, Qi Xuansu wrapped it around his waist, and his center of gravity was somewhat unbalanced and swaying, which shows that it was designed in a shawl style for its own reasons.

Fortunately, Qi Xuansu was not far from the celestials, and he had no experience in resisting the wind, but he had the experience of staying in the air for a short time, and he quickly controlled his body, and began to fly forward as his mind moved.

At this time, the night was already dark, even if there was no curfew in Jinling Mansion, not many people were still outdoors, and the two flew over half of Jinling Mansion by night, and then lowered their bodies not far from a lively long street.

This long street is the famous ten-mile Qinhuai.

There is no way, Shili Qinhuai is built along both banks of the Qinhuai River, which has been inherited for hundreds of years, and it is impossible for the water purification workshop to stay away from the Qinhuai River, so the two are next to each other.

Legend has it that the Qinhuai River was excavated by the ancestral dragon, there are two sources, the east source is located in Ronghua Mountain, the south source is located in Shuilu Mountain, the two waterways converge into the main stream in Jiangning Mansion, and flow to Jinling Mansion. In Tongji Gate, the Qinhuai River is divided into two, one is the "Inner Qinhuai River", enters the city from the East Water Pass, flows through the south of the old city and then goes out of the city from the West Water Pass, the total length is about ten miles, that is, "ten miles of Qinhuai"; The other flows around the city wall outside the city, playing the role of a moat, merging with the inner Qinhuai River near the Shuixi Gate, and finally joining the Great River at the Sanchai River.

The two sides of the "Ten Miles of Qinhuai" are the most prosperous places in Jinling Mansion, where all industries gather and the market is prosperous. A river separates both sides of the river, the north bank is the Jiangnan Gongyuan, and the south bank is the place where the famous teachers gather.

At this time, Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu were on the south bank, even if it was late at night, it was still very lively, not only the lights were bright, but also people came and went.

The two walked side by side, and after crossing this long street, they arrived at the Shuitang workshop.

Colorful lanterns are hung high all around, the piano is noisy, and the figures are shaking.

Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu walked in the meantime, looking out of place with the surroundings.

Qi Xuansu restrained the self-generated cloud aura and murderous aura on the body of "Taiyi Yunyi", and looked very low-key. Zhang Yuelu is still dressed as a Taoist priest, but when he fought fiercely before, the crown on his head had been broken, so his head was covered with green silk at will, and even covered part of his face, which was not very conspicuous.

The two deliberately walked in the shadows of the lights, taking advantage of the night to hide their figures.

Zhang Yuelu was distracted for a moment, his thoughts briefly detached from the investigation of the case and the secret association, and his eyes turned to Qi Xuansu beside him.

The light and darkness fell on Qi Xuansu's body, reflecting his face in flickering light and dark, just like him, he was never bright, but it was not how dark it was, but black and white.

If it weren't for her, Qi Xuansu probably wouldn't have taken the initiative to participate in these things. Many people think that Qi Xuansu is with her, greedy for vanity, and wants to seek something from her, but if you think about it carefully, did Qi Xuansu really get anything? I'm afraid not necessarily, but almost took my life.

If he wasn't by her side, he would be alone at this point. He would not return to the dungeon after escaping, nor would he not fail to remedy the True Martial Arts Temple at this time, but would come to the side of the Water Hall.

In a sense, Qi Xuansu has been pursuing the "Qi family", rather than "leveling the world".

Thinking so, she couldn't help humming the song "Double Tone Qiao Pai'er" softly, although Zhang Yuelu is not proficient in music, but compared to someone's absurdity, at least it is in tune.

Although the voice was low, it lingered around the two of them and still reached Qi Xuansu's ears.

Zhang Yuelu found that Qi Xuansu was still looking ahead, but his lips moved slightly, as if he was silently closing the beat.

Zhang Yuelu couldn't help but smile lightly, didn't say anything, and continued to hum, feeling inexplicably relaxed.

The two of them walked through this lively and bustling long street and came to a deserted place.

Zhang Yuelu raised his hand and pointed: "That's the Shuitang workshop." ”

Qi Xuansu then looked over, only to see a temple-like building standing quietly in the dark shadows, with high walls and black tiles, and a closed door. There are four big red lanterns hanging under the eaves of the main entrance, and the four big characters of "heaven", "down", "tai" and "ping" are written in turn from right to left, but the light of the lanterns is only a few zhang in front of the door, and the rest of the place is still dark. From a distance, it was as if a black beast had opened its bloody mouth.

"How is it a temple?" Qi Xuansu couldn't help asking.

Zhang Yuelu replied: "There are four hundred and eighty temples in the Southern Dynasty, and how many buildings are in the smoke and rain. It is not uncommon for Jinling Mansion to have temples, but there are not many Taoist temples. However, when the two families of Buddhism and Taoism tore their faces, the Taoist gate seized and confiscated many temples, some temples were changed to Taoist temples, and some temples were directly demolished for other purposes, and this water hall workshop was transformed from the temple. ”

"How do you get in?" Qi Xuansu asked again.

Zhang Yuelu groaned slightly: "Dive in." If we are wrong, then we can just quit again, as long as there is no such thing. If we weren't mistaken, we wouldn't have caught the strings by surprise. ”

Qi Xuansu had no objection, looked around left and right, and went straight to the alley next to him.

Zhang Yuelu followed behind Qi Xuansu.

In this regard, Qi Xuansu has more experience than Zhang Yuelu.

Entering the alley, there was no light, only moonlight, Qi Xuansu saw a dead end, jumped lightly, and had already turned over the wall.

Zhang Yuelu followed.

Climbing over the wall, it was supposed to be a small fenced patio, but many of the buildings were demolished, and the patio was connected to the courtyard outside, turning it into a large open space.

As far as the eye can see, the surrounding area is barren and overgrown with weeds, because it is summer, and the weeds against the wall are almost half a person high, and it is very easy to hide their bodies.

Zhang Yuelu explained: "The main facilities of the Shuitang workshop are concentrated in the underground part, and the above-ground part is just a cover, and in the eyes of those who don't know, it is just a deserted temple. ”

Qi Xuansu nodded and asked, "How do we get to the underground part?" ”

Zhang Yuelu urged the "Immortal Qi Technique", and the purple air swirled in her eyes, and a blood-red "air flow" that could not be seen by the naked eye appeared in her sight, extending into the distance like a winding path.

"Follow me." Zhang Yuelu followed this blood-red "air flow", and Qi Xuansu followed behind Zhang Yuelu.

After turning around seven or eight times, I came to a side hall, which is where the entrance to the underground part is located.

Pushing open the hidden door, Zhang Yuelu paused, looked down, and saw a large pool of undried water stains.

Qi Xuansu twitched his nose: "It smells so bad, it seems to smell like corpse water." ”

The so-called "corpse water" is well-known in the rivers and lakes, as long as the corpse and the living are contaminated by the corpse water, they will be turned into a puddle of liquid by this poisonous water in a very short time, and even bones and clothes are also dissolved into liquid, like candles. This kind of thing is not difficult to get, but it is expensive, and a poor boy like Qi Xuansu knows about it but has never used it.

Zhang Yuelu stepped over the threshold with one foot, gently twisted the toe of his shoe, and sure enough, he felt a slight unevenness on the ground under his feet, which should be due to corrosion, making the originally flat ground like sand after being hit by rain.

Judging from the area of the water damage, there should be many corpses that have been melted away.

No wonder it's quiet.

Zhang Yuelu said in a low voice: "It seems that we are not wrong. ”

Qi Xuansu pulled out the "Feiying" on his waist.
