All the guards saluted He Lingchuan and chased after him. Jiao Yu had to follow, turning back three times one step at a time.

The remnants of the sun on the ancient road were like blood, and its burnt red fur slowly disappeared at the end of the road; The sound of hooves faded away, and soon it was inaudible.

He Lingchuan watched their backs go away. Compared with the upcoming changes in Xushan Mountain, what the Chiyan people did in Lingxu City was at most a prelude to a storm.

It was a wise move for Fu Shanyue to leave at this time. He sighed leisurely, rode back for two days, and went to Qingshi Town, a suburb of Lingxu City, to stay overnight.

The rooms in the inn are small, but they are fairly clean. Dong Rui was already waiting for him here. The snail toad hurried to eat a lot of prunella grass in the storehouse of the New Year's Celebration Ceremony, so they had two more days to prepare.

The two of them went down to the restaurant, didn't talk much, ate very carefully and slowly, and went back to the house to rest after the meal.

…… Lingxu City, Nanmian Lane Patrol Department. Another hour and a half was dark. I heard that tonight's food was good, and the chicken legs were added, and the two guards on the evening shift came over in advance.

As a result, the chicken leg hadn't come yet, and Sister-in-law Liu came first. She looked nervous: "Qinzi, I saw that wanted criminal again!" The older ranger smiled and patted the young companion on the shoulder: "Oh, your sister-in-law is going to make a meritorious service!" The young guard rolled his eyes and asked Sister-in-law Liu, "Are you sure?" Neither believed it.

"Show me the wanted warrant again." Qinzi was reluctant, but the cooking in the department was not yet cooked, so he had to get up and say, "Follow me." The two of them went to the old eucalyptus house with a fluorescent spores in their hands and turned out a bunch of old wanted notices.

The dust kicked up, and Qinzi couldn't help but sneeze. Sister-in-law Liu looked through them one by one, and then pointed to one and said, "That's this person!" "This summer, the house is leaking, the damp is invading, and the portraits on the wanted warrants are moldy.

"Or is it this?" Qinzi took out the wanted warrant and glanced at it,

"Wanted Warrant-Person List Eighty-Seventh, Tu Yangzhi, a disciple of Bailing Valley, killed two divine envoys in the country of Suluo seven years ago and escaped. Well, it's a fierce face, are you sure it's this person? ”

"Sure! I saw this portrait a few years ago. Sister-in-law Liu nodded vigorously,

"I noticed this man three days ago, when he was eating noodles at the canned noodle stall at the west entrance of the street, and he was sitting in the shed, and the mole on his forehead was exactly the same as on this portrait. I saw him again! ”

"Where?"

"As soon as he walked into the Chunhe cloth shop, I hurried to report it to you." Sister-in-law Liu asked him,

"If the report is successful, is there a bonus?"

"If it's really Tu Yangzhi, a reward of fifty taels of silver." Qinzi didn't think she had this kind of luck,

"But every year there are at least thirty or forty sightings of wanted criminals, all of which are false positives. Sister-in-law, those who are going to commit crimes rarely appear in front of people. ”

"Not in front of people?" Sister-in-law Liu scoffed,

"They don't eat, they don't poop, they cover their faces all day long? You come with me, I'll earn the fifty taels of silver!" The two returned to the front, and the older ranger asked his companion, "How?" He had the mentality of watching the play, but Qinzi grabbed the wanted warrant and said: "My sister-in-law believes that what she saw is the fugitive Tu Yangzhi, so she has to drag me away." "According to the regulations, the patrol guards work in pairs, and they cannot place orders without special circumstances.

The older guards are also reluctant, what kind of eyesight can this woman have, nine out of ten are wrong. He came over early and just wanted to nibble on more chicken legs, and more was better than less.

But Sister-in-law Liu immediately assured that the volume was still loud, and the people who came in and out could hear it. This woman is really looking for trouble, he said helplessly: "Okay, okay, be quiet, I'll go with you." As soon as they made a report, two men and a woman went to the Chunhe cloth shop.

On the way, Sister-in-law Liu introduced the two of them: "This Chunhe Buzhuang is an old shop for more than ten years, and several of our neighbors often go to take care of it; But since the change of owner a month ago, the business has been slack, and other houses have no good-looking and popular colors! No one is going now, I think he will get yellow in less than half a year, ouch, there are still people who dare to do business in Lingxu City these years! "How expensive is the rent of the shop in Lingxu City, and the shop in Chunhe Buzhuang is big, so this business is a pure loss.

The guards yawned. In front of him was Chunhe Buzhuang, and Qinzi muttered: "It's still on the edge of the public house." "Buzhuang is next door to the official office, what fugitives will go here to make up?

Entering the cloth village, as Sister-in-law Liu said, there are no guests here, only two guys sitting in the store, one gnawing melon seeds, and the other holding his head and dozing.

The one who gnawed melon seeds saw Qinzi and the others coming in, and immediately got up to greet him: "Why are the two poor masters here?" Qinzi was just about to speak, but Sister-in-law Liu smiled and said, "They went to my house for dinner, and by the way, they came with me to buy a piece of cloth first." You take down that begonia red horse and show it to me. The guy went to pick up the fabric, and the guards looked around the shop, and the other guy nodded.

The front store and the back yard are in the middle of a wooden ladder leading to the attic. This pattern is common in the shops of Lingxu City, and there is often a storage room at the bottom of the stairs.

The passage in front of the staircase was blocked with a half-curtain. There was a soft creak from behind the curtain, and someone came out of the storage room to go up to the second floor.

Qinzi jumped over and lifted the curtain directly to look up. The man climbed two steps, heard a strange noise and turned around, just in front of his eyes.

Qinzi was taken aback. This man, this face! That's right, it's the same as the portrait on the wanted notice, and even the mole on the forehead!

The man asked him in a deep voice, "What are you doing?" Seeing his fierce eyes, Qinzi's heart thumped, and he forced himself to calm down: "Internal urgency, can you borrow a place?" The man gestured to the backyard.

At this time, the guy in the store also came over: "Poor master, there is a warehouse in the back, what is the matter with you?" ”

"I'll borrow a pit." The older patrol also came: "Have you eaten a bad stomach?" Tu Yangzhi had already walked up to the attic, Qinzi glanced at the stairs and gave his companion a look: "My stomach doesn't seem to hurt very much, but I can bear it." The older guard was stunned for a moment, and understood: "Then go back, what are you doing here?" "Isn't it, a real person?

The surname Tu has cultivation, and the two of them may not be able to do it, so they have to go back and ask for support. The two of them were about to go out, but the guy outside happened to block the door: "The two adults are not complimentary?" Qinzi waved his hand: "Get out of the way." "Suddenly there was a crackling of the stairs, and someone was coming down.

The two patrolmen subconsciously looked sideways, but the cold light flashed in front of them, and a handful of water thorns in the man's hand pierced the throat of the older patrolman.

Advance and come out, poking a transparent blood hole. There was no warning of talking and laughing and killing people at this time, Qinzi stood behind his companion, and suddenly saw a sharp tip on the back of his neck, and couldn't help but scream and draw his knife.

The wind behind him sounded, and Qinzi cracked with his backhand, but he was kicked hard in the leg, and everyone was half-squatting down in pain.

I don't know when there was a big bird in front of me, shaped like a stork and with a high crown, it kicked Qinzi and broke his leg bones.

Someone strangled him from behind and gave him a rear-naked choke. Qinzi watched the fugitive Tu Yangzhi walk down from upstairs, looked at him and said, "Don't ask, kill directly." With a click, Qinzi's neck broke.

The patrolman's half-shouting alarm alarmed Sister-in-law Liu in the front store. She was quite alert, looked around twice and turned around and ran.

But before she could reach the door, her collar was lifted, and as soon as her mouth opened, she was blocked by a cloth ball.

After she was mentioned to the store, one of the guys went to the door to look around twice and found that no one was paying attention to it, which was good.

Tu Yangzhi interrogated Liu's sister-in-law. When the latter saw the two dead bodies on the ground, he trembled with fright, and he didn't need to be forced to confess.

All the people in the store were there, a total of four strong men, all with heavy faces. Someone said to Tu Yang: "Old Tu, you have been exposed." ”

"It's us who exposed." Tu Yangzhi didn't expect that he would be seen through by a street woman when he lived in Lingxu City.

"These two guards have just taken over the night shift, and if they don't return tomorrow morning, they will be suspicious. Besides, they had already reported before they came to Chunhe Buzhuang, and the Patrol Department would definitely come to check here tomorrow. Even if we empty the cellar, I'm afraid there will still be youkai who can smell the smell of powder kegs. Another person said: "Not long ago, there was an accident in the post house, and the patrol in the south of the city was temporarily led by Tongxinwei. Tongxinwei is much stricter than the ordinary patrol department, and you have to get to the bottom of everything. Jixinling's brother was also almost exposed a few days ago. ”

"What then?" Tu Yangzhi slapped his hand and smashed Liu's sister-in-law's heavenly spirit cover,

"We can't be the master, so ask for instructions from above." Soon, Chunhe Buzhuang flew out of a bat and headed towards Dunyuan.

…… In the night, there was the sound of flapping wings. Listening to the sound coming here, He Lingchuan opened his eyes and went to the ground, pushing open the wooden window.

A gorgeous figure jumped into the window and landed on He Lingchuan's shoulder. It is a large parrot with a red top and a blue back, with a bright color and an arm's length from head to tail.

Such a gorgeous fowl demon is too conspicuous to be interrogated. He Lingchuan set up the ripe bird: "You are ......?" Fang Canran mentioned to him that there was a parrot at home that was almost 200 years old.

In the past, it was rescued by the ancestor Shao Jian, and later passed on the bad news of Shao Jian to his daughter Shao Yingying. In order to rub a meal ticket, no, in order to repay the favor, this fowl demon stayed at Shao's house.

When Shao Yingying married the Fang family, it became the heirloom of the Fang family. The past of Shao Jian that Fang Canran heard was not handed down from generation to generation, but the personal experience of this big parrot.

No wonder you have to have details and feelings.

"I'm Lingbo!" The parrot spouts,

"There's an emergency!"

"Lingbo" is indeed the name of Fang Canran's family parrot, and He Lingchuan must say it himself. It whispered in He Lingchuan's ear: "A little arrangement we made was accidentally exposed tonight!" We've been silenced by the patrol that came our way, but it won't last long, and someone outside may still hear something strange. In the past month, the patrol control in the south of the city has been the strictest. I'm afraid that after dawn, Lingxu City will sense the abnormality and start investigating! ”
