Volume 1 Autumn Festival Chapter 5 There are demons in Huncheng

When Jiang Wang returned to the Hou Mansion, the old housekeeper was waiting at the door.

He noticed that the old butler's eyes had become strange.

There is a feeling that I can't put it into words.

Let Xiaoyu go back to the house first, Jiang Wang looked at the old housekeeper and wondered, "Uncle Tong, are you okay?" ”

The old housekeeper smiled and said, "Childe, the meal is ready." ”

looked at Jiang Wang's blank appearance.

The old housekeeper felt a little relieved, the son had grown up after all.

He thought of the reason why Gongzi was clumsy, maybe he realized that Hou Ye's affairs were very dangerous, and he deliberately pretended to be very useless before he thoroughly figured it out.

Although it is a fact that Jiang Wang is sick.

But who says you can't be strong when you're sick?

The old housekeeper has no intention of telling Jiang Wang everything at present.

Because he felt that Childe must have some plan, and when Childe was open and honest, it would not be too late for him to say more.

And if Jiang Wang knew what the old butler was thinking at the moment, he would definitely be speechless.

It's okay not to always guess and guess, okay, can't you just say something?

......

Qixia Street is quiet in the middle of the night.

There was a fog in the air.

Du Zicheng staggered on the way home.

Thinking of his father's praise for his surname Su, beating and scolding himself, his mood was terrible.

At this time, he fell down due to a slip under his feet, which caused him to scold the street.

Then sit down on a rock to catch your breath.

His eyes were foggy, and he fell asleep directly after a while.

Soon, he was woken up by a loud noise.

Slightly dazzled, in the dim streets, there were thin lights flickering, the sound of gold and iron resonating was pleasant, and gradually the smell of blood came, and it became stronger and stronger.

Du Zicheng came to his senses instantly.

As soon as he wanted to escape, a sword light suddenly stabbed him, and then he didn't know anything.

Du Zicheng woke up again and was already in the prison of the town guard mansion.

Just because last night, there were several murders in Huncheng.

There was even a monk who died in the East Bazaar.

One of them is at the intersection of Qixia Street.

When the arrester of the town guard office arrived, Du Zicheng was lying there, with a broken sword next to him, and there were blood stains on his body that did not belong to him, so he naturally became a suspect.

The intersection of Qixia Street was blocked at the first time, and no one was allowed to approach.

The first god of Huncheng reported to the town guard: "According to the subordinates who just checked, there is a deep scratch at the intersection of Qixia Street and Pingqi Street, which is three feet deep, and it can cause such a trace, which is definitely not something that ordinary people can do." ”

The Warden could understand what that meant.

Because Du Zicheng is just a martial artist in the first realm, he is not much different from ordinary people in nature.

But he had a hard time.

There are indeed monks in Huncheng these days, but he can't afford to offend them.

If it was just a fight between a martial artist or a monk, things would have been much easier, but it was not something he could control after all.

But now that ordinary people have been killed, and monks have died in Huncheng, he is in a great dilemma.

......

Jiang Wang learned about this when he was in his prime.

Looking at the two monks in the green robe and the white robe in front of him, his eyebrows kept jumping.

It's really not difficult to find an extremely good-looking person in Huncheng.

But he was actually quite calm.

Because the two have not shown malicious intent at the moment.

After all, the identity of the little marquis of Xunyang Houfu and the disciple of the Sword Pavilion does not conflict.

Although Jiang Wang didn't know the identity of his more Sword Pavilion disciples, the two of them in the green robe were thinking so at the moment.

"Mr. Jiang, I believe that you have already heard about the Huncheng murder, although the East Market is far away from Qixia Street, as far as we know, except for you, no one else in Huncheng can easily kill a Cave Netherworld monk."

Jiang Wang was a little uneasy now.

When the moon was full, only two of the three monks in the West Building came, and it was already obvious that this matter was already obvious.

But what do you mean?

Suspected?

He was about to explain something.

The green-robed monk said again: "But if there are masters hiding in Huncheng, it's a different matter. ”

Jiang Wang opened his mouth.

Didn't wait for him to speak.

The green-robed monk then said: "Now only Mr. Jiang can help us, as long as Mr. Jiang can help find the murderer hidden in Huncheng, my two brothers are willing to take the lead for Mr. Jiang." ”

As soon as the words fell, he bowed to Jiang Wangshen with the white robe.

Jiang Wang was speechless.

He didn't even have a chance to speak, and the two of them had already set him up.

I'm thinking about how to refuse.

As if to express sincerity, the two of them knelt down directly, "If Mr. Jiang doesn't agree, we can't afford to kneel." ”

Jiang Wang: "......"

I want to say yes, but where am I going to find the murderer!

You are embarrassing my little marquis!

"Actually, you misunderstood." Jiang Wang felt the need to tell the truth, "At that time, I didn't do anything in the broken alley, and the green spirit was gone, although some unusual things did happen to me recently, but the truth is not what you think." ”

The white-robed monk raised his head, looked at Jiang Wang very seriously, and said, "Mr. Jiang, I understand. ”

Jiang Wang smiled and said, "It's good that you understand." ”

The white-robed monk said: "We are just ascetics in the West Tower with a full moon, and we may be high in the eyes of ordinary people and ordinary martial artists, but in the eyes of people like Mr. Jiang, we are just stronger ants. ”

You know what a ghost!

Jiang Wang almost choked himself to death with a mouthful of saliva.

Don't think too much about it!

The green-robed monk followed closely and said: "We don't have the luxury of asking Mr. Jiang to take action personally, as long as we find the murderer, our life and death have nothing to do with Mr. Jiang, if we can survive, we will still dedicate our lives to Mr. Jiang, after all, this is our most valuable thing." ”

Jiang Wang was a little tired.

He waved his hand and said lightly: "I will help you find the murderer, but I can't guarantee whether I can find it." ”

The green robe and the white robe said excitedly: "Thank you, Mr. Jiang!" ”

......

Although Jiang Wang felt very tired, since he had promised something, he always had to do it.

He asked the old butler to go thirty miles outside the city and dispatch the Black Flame Army.

This is the first time that the Black Flame Army has re-entered Huncheng since the so-called downfall of the Hou Mansion.

The Black Flame soldiers, with their horses in armor and green fangs, held bright silver spears, raised smoke and dust, and their momentum was magnificent, provoking the guards of Huncheng as if they were facing a great enemy.

If it weren't for the black flame banner held high by the leader in time, he would have sounded the horn of war in panic.

The Warden was the first to learn about it.

When he figured out that it was the little marquis who wanted to find the murderer of the Huncheng murder, he could only sigh with emotion: "The little marquis really has the style of a father, which is admirable." ”

He was still polite to Jiang Wang, in the final analysis, it was the existence of the Black Flame Army.

The Black Flame Army is Xunyang's soldiers, and currently only obeys the orders of the little marquis, which is the largest force in Huncheng.

Although it is said that the Xunyang Houfu has been defeated, the town guard knows best that as long as the Black Flame Army is still there, the Hou Mansion will still be the same Hou Mansion as it used to be.

Jiang Wang's direct dispatch of the Black Flame Army to search and arrest the whole city may have been a bit reckless, but after all, it was a righteous move.

In the simplest way, the Black Flame Army pushed all the way sideways to remove all the obstacles that the town guards were worried about, so that the process of investigating the case was greatly improved.

The town keeper was very impressed.

In the face of those suspects who can't afford to offend the town guard, if you want to be tough, you will have to pay a great price, and the little marquis is very understanding and takes all the dangers over.

The town guard government can investigate the Huncheng murder case without any scruples.

He was even already thinking about how to thank the little marquis afterwards.

And Jiang Wang, who was in Xunyang Houfu, was completely unaware of these things.

He just asked the old butler to convey his meaning to the Black Flame Army, and as for what the Black Flame Army did, he didn't think about it at all.

But the speed of the Black Flame Army was indeed very fast, and in the evening, the deputy commander Shan Saiyu came to Xunyang Houfu.

He stood in front of Jiang Wang, bowed down and said, "Little Marquis." ”

Jiang Wang stayed in his room, poured himself a cup of tea, and asked, "Did you find out the result?" ”

Shan Saiyu handed a list to Jiang Wang's eyes and said, "This is the list of all foreign monks and martial artists recently. ”

Jiang Wang was puzzled: "It's a monk who died, why are you checking Wufu?" ”

Shan Qiyu was stunned for a moment and said: "The one who died in the East Bazaar was a monk from the Cave Netherworld, but it was not only the monk who could kill the monk, in addition to the monsters who were very deep in the Dao, some martial artists could also do it. ”

This is a bit beyond Jiang Wang's cognition.

He always thought that Wufu was just a Jianghu man who could punch and kick.

"In the entire Kutan, martial artists are everywhere, monks are hard to find, and the realm of the monks who most often enter the world is low, but for the martial artists below the four realms, it is still a terrifying existence that is difficult to fight."

Shan Saiyu said very seriously: "But as long as the martial artist enters the fourth realm, he will have the strength to fight with the cultivator, and the martial artist of the grandmaster realm can even easily kill the monk of the cave underworld." ”

Jiang Wang once again deeply realized that this world was indeed very dangerous.

He took a sip of tea and asked, "Then what did you find?" ”

Shan Saiyu pointed to the last name on the list and said, "This person is the most suspicious person at the moment." ”

"There are not many existing monks in Huncheng, either like Su Lingyi and Du Yanruo of the Yuyuan Academy, they have not really stepped into the realm of the cave underworld, and the only remaining are the two monks in the West Building where the moon is full......"

"Only this person named Feng Linghuai, he is a martial artist at the peak of the Four Realms, as long as the conditions allow, he is completely able to kill a monk in an instant."

"But at present, I haven't found out that there is any grudge between this Feng Linghuai and the dead monk, and what is more noteworthy is that in the process of investigation, we found traces of monsters in Huncheng."

Jiang Wang looked down at the list, and was surprised when he heard this: "There are monsters again?" ”

Now Huncheng is about to become a monster nest.

Thinking that there were several murders in Huncheng, and they were basically at the same time, compared to Feng Linghuai, the possibility of monsters committing murder would be greater.

He asked Shan Saitama to continue his investigation, and asked for the specific location of the youkai's appearance, and decided to completely control that power this time.
