Chapter 51: A Dangerous Murder (Ask for Follow!) )
After three rounds of drinking, Mo Chen hung the Xuanbin iron diagonally on his waist and led the sword demon out of the restaurant.
This meal had the sword demon by his side, and the wine was unpleasant, but fortunately, he didn't have to pay the bill, and there was a cheap apprentice to pay his respect, which still made Mo Chen feel better.
It's just this Xuanbin iron......
Mo Chen flicked the Xuanbin Iron and said in a low voice, "Don't talk nonsense. ”
The iron vibrated gently in response.
Mo Chen was relieved that this piece of broken iron was too wild, and he didn't want to be locked up, so he could only release it, just for the convenience of carrying, he also reluctantly made a scabbard for Xuanbin Tie.
In order to match the identity of Xuanbin Iron, it cost a hundred taels of silver to build the scabbard, and that's it, Xuanbin Iron is not satisfied.
If you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are...... Mo Chen flicked the Xuanbin Iron again.
“???” Xuan Pin Iron trembled slightly.
Mo Chen no longer paid attention to Xuan Bintie, turned his head and said to the sword demon, "You go back." ”
He made an appointment with Ye Lingxi to meet at Wudesi in the afternoon, and he was going to go now, he didn't want to take the sword demon to Wudesi, the gangsters would hinder his play.
"Ah...... "The Sword Demon scratched his head and asked cautiously, "Master...... Do you know where Vudeji is? ”
"This ......" Mo Chen was stunned, yes, he didn't know the way......
Seeing this, the sword demon immediately turned sideways, smiled and flattered, "I'll show you the way." ”
Alas, forget it, if you don't play, you should save money...... Mo Chen sighed in his heart, dispelled the idea of playing, and said with a slight bow: "Lead the way." ”
At that moment, the Sword Demon led him towards Wu Desi, and after walking a few steps, he found that Mo Chen was still standing in place, and turned to look at Mo Chen in confusion.
"Hire a carriage." The corners of Mo Chen's mouth twitched, his cheap apprentice was always stupid.
The sword demon suddenly slapped his head: "Wait a minute, I'll go!" ”
With that, he ran away with a puff of smoke.
When entering Beijing, Ye Lingxi told Mo Chen what he could and couldn't do in the capital, and one of the things he couldn't do was to control the sky.
Beijing, no flying.
After a short time, the sword demon went and returned, leading a carriage back, and after Mo Chen got into the carriage, the carriage drove and drove towards Wu Desi.
After a while, Mo Chen, who was sitting in the carriage, suddenly reacted, he could hire a carriage to go to Wudesi by himself, and he didn't need to let the sword demon lead the way at all.
I'm stupid too...... The corners of Mo Chen's mouth twitched again.

"What? Your senior brother is not an immortal? ”
In the hall on the fifth floor of Yun Yao Tower, Zhao Heng looked at Ye Lingxi in surprise.
Ye Lingxi nodded, and said matter-of-factly: "Senior Brother Benguan is a Yuheng Realm cultivator. ”
Jade Heng Realm?
Everyone in the hall looked at each other, recommending a monk from the Yuheng Realm who was not an immortal to serve as a white servant, and Wu Desi had no precedent for this.
At this time, Yun Yao left the hall, and several people also let go of their voices, among them, looking at their age, the oldest middle-aged man said in a deep voice: "Commander Ye, let the Yuheng Realm monk serve as a white servant, it's not in accordance with the rules, right?" ”
The middle-aged man's name is Qian Hong, he is a good old man, and usually no one can be offended, but Ye Lingxi recommended the Yuheng Realm monk to serve as a white servant, so that he, a good old man, raised objections.
"Commander Ye, this official is not targeting you, but since the establishment of the Wude Division, there has never been a precedent for a monk to serve as a white servant, if you let your senior brother serve as a white servant, I am afraid that you will not be able to serve the public."
The young man took over the conversation, his name was Xu Yang, and he was the commander two years earlier than Ye Lingxi, so he was considered a newcomer.
Usually he speaks cautiously, but when it comes to Ye Lingxi's recommendation of Mo Chen, he can't turn a blind eye, and his tone of voice is a little heavier.
"That's right, let the monk serve as a white servant, which makes us all the white servants of the Martial Arts Division, where to put our face?"
"That's it, Your Highness is too hasty, how can you let Commander Ye make Hu come, and this official will go to His Highness and explain the benefits and harms of this matter."
……
Just when the doubts were rising, Xu Qian slapped the table heavily and said angrily: "Shut up, whether Senior Brother Ye Meizi can serve as a white servant depends on whether her senior brother can solve the murder case in Changde County, what are you all anxious about?" ”
This shout interrupted the questioning of several people, and after everyone looked at each other, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
"Why do they show such a demeanor after hearing that the senior brother can only serve as a day servant after solving the case?" Ye Lingxi muttered in his heart, frowned slightly, and looked at Xu Qian in confusion.
Xu Qian explained: "Ye Meizi just came back, and I don't know how serious the murder case in Changde County is. ”
Speaking of this, she pursed her lips and sighed, "This case is not something that a few Yuheng Realm cultivators can solve. ”
…………
About half an hour later, the coachman hired by the Sword Demon pulled the reins, and the steed stopped, and then the coachman turned back and said respectfully:
"My lord, Wu Deji has arrived."
After a while, Mo Chen and the sword demon jumped out of the carriage one after the other, and after landing, Mo Chen raised his eyes and was stunned.
This yamen is too big, isn't it?
The main gate of Wu Desi was bigger than he could have imagined, this gate could allow ten carriages to enter side by side, and there were two small doors to the left and right of the main entrance, and the width of the small doors alone was wider than the main entrance of the mansions of large families.
Looking through the main gate, it is a wide street, the street is lined with attics, and the street is full of people.
On the other side, after paying for the car, the sword demon came to Mo Chen's side, pointed to the magnificent gate in front of him and said, "This is Wu Desi." ”
Hearing the voice of the sword demon, Mo Chen hurriedly put away his surprised look and pretended to bow his head slightly.
"Immortal Chief."
"Immortal Chief."
At this time, the two guards guarding the door saw the sword demon, and they both trembled all over, and saluted the sword demon with a smile.
Why did I meet the Sword Demon when I was on duty? This question popped up in the hearts of the two guards, and until now, their bodies were still aching faintly, and the sword demon's kick was too ruthless......
The Sword Demon waved his hand in annoyance, and then forced himself to regard Mo Chen as a peer, and said with a smile: "Please." ”
Mo Chen nodded, and followed the sword demon into the Wude Division.
After they stepped into the yamen, the two guards breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at each other, and then secretly glanced at Mo Chen's back.
"Who is this man?"
"I don't know, I haven't seen it."
"Looking at the sword demon's attitude towards him, he is also an immortal, right?"
"Maybe, don't come here, go back quickly, someone is coming."
……
After walking into the Wu De Division, Mo Chen intuitively felt the grandeur of the Wu De Division.
This yamen is too big, and compared with the underground heavenly palace in the Sumeru space, it is not too much, no wonder there are so many servants for the white servants.
Because this yamen is rich!
Mo Chen couldn't help but smile on his face, his yearning for his future life diluted the psychological damage Su Muxue caused him.
Su Muxue can't marry, then don't marry, he has money in his hands, and he has a status after entering the Wude Division, are you still afraid that she won't be able to marry a lady from the sky?
After a short time, the sword demon led Mo Chen into Yun Yao Tower.
There are many officials in the building, and the official uniforms are different, Mo Chen has little knowledge, and he can't tell who is big and who is small.
After these officials saw the sword demon, they clasped their fists and saluted one by one, and after seeing Mo Chen beside the sword demon, they glanced at each other and also saluted.
Mo Chen bowed his head slightly in an unfathomable manner, and then followed the sword demon upstairs.
When he and the sword demon disappeared down the stairs, the officials on the first floor looked at each other and whispered.
"Who is this man? Have you seen it? ”
"No, but he was brought in by the Sword Demon, so he must have an extraordinary identity."
"You say, could he be the Sword Demon Master?"
"Sword Demon Master?"
Several officials were stunned for a moment, looked at the officials who were speaking wildly, sneered at "cut", and then went their own way.
The ridiculed official stretched out his hand to make a gesture of retention, and muttered, "Don't go, maybe he is really the Sword Demon Master......"
…………
"Five days ago, in Changde County, 200 miles north of the capital, there were dozens of murders overnight, and according to investigation, a total of 53 people died, and these 53 people were all eaten to death by wild beasts.
In the early days, we characterized it as wild beasts eating people, but we couldn't find any clues of the existence of beasts, and the dead people had no remnants of souls left, so they couldn't ask for spirits.
Therefore, this murder was not committed by a wild animal, but by man. ”
When Xu Qian said this, she glanced at Zhao Heng, a sneer flashed in her eyes, and just when Zhao Heng was about to get angry, she retracted her gaze and continued:
"At that time, Zhao Heng left two commanders to lead people to investigate the case, and after one night, not only did they not catch the real murderer, but instead let the murderer kill five more people under their noses, and ......"
Speaking of this, she glanced at Zhao Heng again and sneered: "The two commanders under Zhao Heng have died. ”
"Two commanders dead?"
Ye Lingxi was stunned for a moment, the commander is the fourth grade, and the officials who generally serve as the commander are all in the Tianji Realm, and the murderer can kill two Tianji Realm monks without knowing it, which is enough to make everyone present pay attention to it.
But...... Is that all?
Xu Qian nodded and continued to explain: "Two commanders died, let us pay attention to this murder case, and then we appointed two commanders of Yuheng Realm to take people to Changde County to investigate the case. ”
The commanders of the Yuheng Realm have all been sacrificed?
Ye Lingxi exclaimed in his heart, the command of Tongzhi is from the third grade, most of them are Tianquan Realm monks, and there are also many Yuheng Realm monks who serve as commanders and Tongzhi.
"Later, we sent more people, Zhao Heng and I led the team into Changde County, but the murderer was still not caught, and in the past few days, several brothers have been sacrificed.
Until today, before Zhao Heng and I closed the team, a total of 73 people died in Changde County, and we also sacrificed 15 brothers. ”
Hearing this, Ye Lingxi understood how serious the homicide case in Changde County was, and this homicide case was no longer something that any commander could solve.
Either the commanders and envoys will transfer personnel to jointly handle the case, or they will ask the white servants to take action.
Moreover, the real murderer can kill people unscrupulously in the two teams of Xu Qian and Zhao Heng, which shows how strong this murderer is.
It won't be ......
"Sister Qian, haven't you ever suspected that the murderer is an immortal?" Ye Lingxi stared at Xu Qian directly.
Xu Qian shook her head, and before she could speak, Zhao Heng on the opposite side sneered: "The former Japanese official handed over the murderer, and it can be determined that the murderer is not an immortal, if Xu Qian hadn't dragged his feet, this official would have caught the murderer a long time ago." ”
"This official is dragging his feet?" Xu Qian's eyes widened, and then she sneered: "I don't know if the official dragged you back, or if the official saved your life." ”
"You saved my officer's life? Oh, hubris. ”
……
For a while, Zhao Heng and Xu Qian quarreled again.
The good old man Qian Hong hurriedly persuaded him, and the rest of the people drank tea and watched the play on the side, Xu Yang sighed, looked at Ye Lingxi, and persuaded:
"Commander Ye, even if you can find out the murderer, you can't catch him, you only have two Yuheng Realm commanders under your command, plus you and your senior brother, there are only four, four Yuheng Realm ......"
He didn't say the rest of the words, and he didn't have to say everything, I believe Ye Lingxi can understand that he has good intentions.
In his opinion, this military order under Ye Lingxi is looking for death.
When Xu Qian heard this, her concern for Ye Lingxi prevailed, and she no longer confronted Zhao Heng, turned her head to hold Ye Lingxi's hand, and persuaded:
"Sister Ye, listen to my sister's advice, go and ask His Highness to take back his life, let me help you.
By the way, the sword demon you recommended is now mobilized by me, and when His Highness takes back his life, I will ask the sword demon to help you.
And your senior brother, let him serve as a commander under you. ”
Ye Lingxi smiled slightly: "Sister Qian, don't worry, as long as the murderer is not an immortal, my senior brother will definitely be able to solve the case." ”
"Are you sure?" Xu Qian frowned.
Several other people glanced at each other when they heard this, and stared at Ye Lingxi together, is this woman so confident?
Ye Lingxi nodded, and just as he was about to speak, the door of the hall suddenly opened, and a loud voice sounded outside the door.
"Commander Ye, your senior brother is looking for you."
Suddenly, the eyes of several commanders fell on the door together.
I saw the sword demon and a young man standing at the door together, the young man hung a long knife obliquely behind his waist, wearing a dark power suit, his body was burly, his complexion was darker, and his facial features were like knife carvings, which had a man's unique charm.
He is Senior Brother Ye Lingxi?
Several people glanced at each other, and then stood up and saluted together: "I've seen the sword demon senior." ”
The sword demon nodded casually, and was just about to stretch his legs and step in, but he didn't know what he remembered, coughed lightly, and wanted to cover up and said: "Commander Ye, I accidentally saw your senior brother on the street, and it happened that there was nothing wrong, so I brought him to you, okay, the person has been brought, and I will leave." ”
When the words fell, he didn't wait for Ye Lingxi to reply, he endured his reluctance, turned around slowly, and left with small steps.
After he left, several people in the hall looked at Mo Chen unscrupulously, some frowned, some sneered, and some smiled and nodded.
Seeing this, Mo Chen thought of the attitude of the sword demon towards them, and thought that he would be the same as the sword demon in the future, they would all be white servants, so he pretended to bow his head slightly, put his hands behind his back, and did not open his mouth to salute.
There is no way, he is in the Wude Division with the Sword Demon, he usually has to be vigilant, and he can't do anything that violates his design, so as not to make the Sword Demon suspicious.
Alas...... It's not easy to make some money, but now it seems that even if you expel the sword demon from the division, I'm afraid it's useless......
Mo Chen sighed in his heart, and the hand behind his back secretly scratched his palm.
Seeing Mo Chen so rude, Zhao Heng's face turned dark, and he sneered: "Heh...... Arrogant. ”
After that, he took the lead in walking out of the hall, and when he passed by Mo Chen's side, he sneered again.
Well? Why did he have this attitude towards me? Mo Chen was stunned for a moment, maintaining his personality on his face, and frowning slightly dissatisfied.
At this time, except for Ye Lingxi and Xu Qian, the remaining few people walked out of the hall on their feet, and when they passed by Mo Chen, they either shook their heads and sighed, or smiled and nodded slightly.
When Xu Yang passed by, he gently patted Mo Chen's shoulder and said in a low voice: "Listen to the advice of this official, don't accompany your junior sister to mess around." ”
As the words fell, he shook his head with a sigh and left with his hands behind his back.
What is your attitude? I'm a white servant of Wude Division in the future, and, messing around with my junior sister? Why am I messing around with my sister?
Mo Chen's indifferent face stiffened a little, a little confused, and looked at Ye Lingxi in confusion.
"Puff......" Ye Lingxi couldn't help laughing.
"Sister Ye, is your senior brother really capable of solving the case?" Xu Qianhu looked at Mo Chen suspiciously.
Solve a case? What case to solve? Mo Chen was stunned again, who could explain to him what happened......
