Grace Chapter 15: Nightmare Town
This is a gathering place for the poor in the castle outside Chaoge, and it is almost impossible for anyone to come here, even the officials in charge of patrolling do not like to come to this intricate alley.
It is said that the government wanted to demolish this area for a long time and re-planned it, but there are always many people who think that the compensation issued by the government is insufficient, and some people are worried that the government will reverse its word after the house is demolished, so it is likely to end up homeless.
As a result, this place has become more and more chaotic over the years, and it has always been a headache for Kyoto Prefecture.
In an old abandoned alley.
"Childe, you think for your sake, I still have a board in the yamen, can you?"
The woman handed the hair out of her hand and carefully expressed her desire to add money.
"Not found?" The man was Zhuang Ance, he took it from the woman's hand with a smile, but in fact, he was observing the surroundings.
"Rest assured, they found nothing,"
The woman was very sure, "I have a name in this capital, so you can go and inquire about it." ”
"It's okay, even if it's discovered,"
Zhuang Ance generously took out a bag of silver, and presented it with both hands very politely, "For the sake of your neat work, I'll give you more, and don't tell anyone about it when you go back." ”
"Don't worry, Childe, I know the rules," the woman looked at the silver.
"Okay, let's go back."
......
"What about people?"
On the way to Kyoto, Su Mu met Wen Daoyan, who had returned.
"Thirty boards according to the rod and put them back," Wen Daoyan said.
This is a legal provision, of course, Su Mu can't blame Wen Daoyan, who is unaware, for this, and asked, "In that direction?" ”
Wen Daoyan also sensed from the expressions of Su Mu and the others, and immediately led the way to chase after them.
"Can you see what kind of people it is?"
The narrow alleyway has been abandoned for an unknown amount of time, and the ground is full of rancid garbage and rats that have died here for some unknown reason, and the smell of the whole alleyway is unpleasant, and now there is a strong smell of blood.
The woman's head was neatly cut off with a sharp knife, as if it had been done by the most sophisticated of machines.
"The person who shot the real yuan has not used it, and it is the move of the warriors of the rivers and lakes,"
After reading it, Zhao Zhitang said: "It seems that there is an unknown conspiracy behind this, and it is aimed at you, Senior Brother Su." ”
"Who wants to deal with Senior Brother?"
Wen Daoyan couldn't bear to look directly at the pool of blood on the ground, and he also felt incredulous, "Under the imperial capital, there are such murders. ”
"As bright as there is, there will be as dark as possible,"
Su Mu didn't feel too surprised, and thought carefully: "There are not many people who have an enmity with me, and it seems that there are only those people who have been provoked on Ruoshen Mountain recently. ”
"I have a share, why didn't you come to steal my hair?"
Tan Rusu felt that she was being looked down upon, "Are these guys looked down upon?" ”
"In any case, you have to be cautious in the near future," Mo Qianhe reminded with a frown.
"Could it be that Fei Yu did it?" Wen Daoyan guessed.
"When I saw the eldest princess, I had already told Fei Yu about buying the killer of the Ghost Temple, Fei Yu shouldn't have a chance to come out and do this kind of thing."
"It's not a good place to stay for long, let's go back first," Chang Chun suggested, a little worried that the people behind him were deliberately luring them here.
Fortunately, nothing happened until he returned to Wen Daoyan's small courtyard.
......
"Take it, I hope the seniors don't let me down."
In the pitch-black house, Zhuang Ance handed over the hair he had obtained to a wizard.
This wizard's name is Wu Xuan, and he is the master of Wu Yan who appeared in Jianmu at the beginning.
No one knows why Zhuang Ance, who was fighting Wu Yan at the beginning, would come together with her master at this time.
"What are you questioning?"
Wu Xuan's wood-like arms stretched out from the wide cuffs, and he said in a hoarse voice: "My Nightmare Town Technique, even if the Cave Void True Man has only one way to die, even if the transcendent worldly return power is planted by me, I must take off the three layers of skin." ”
"I hope it will be as the predecessors said,"
Zhuang Ance's eyes flashed with a cold light, he was really afraid of Su Mu and Mo Qianhe, who continued to live, as long as this plan could be successfully successful, Su Mu would inevitably be abolished by Shushan, and then expelled from the mountain gate.
Thinking of this, he looked at Wu Xuan and reminded seriously: "There should be a lot of strong people watching the battle that day, seniors must be cautious." ”
"What are you questioning?"
Wu Xuan took out a red rope, and then wrapped it around Su Mu's hair, "I have practiced witchcraft for many years, how can I let those people notice, you should leave here quickly." ”
Immediately.
Wu Xuan sat down cross-legged and wrapped a red rope around his hair as he chanted an inaudible incantation in his mouth.
Followed by.
A wooden figure emerged from his palm, and then he lifted the cinnabar pen and wrote Su Mu's birthday on the wooden figure's back.
Su Mu is a member of the Zishui Su family.
The Su family is not a family of cultivators, and the strongest monk in the clan is now Su Mu.
In terms of official career, the Su family does not have a few Beijing officials, and most of them are distributed in the local area.
What makes the Su family famous in the secular world is wealth, and the Su family operates the finest silk in Shu and makes a lot of profits.
With such a family, it is not difficult to obtain Su Mu's birth date from them.
......
Night falls.
At the stone table in front of the small courtyard, Su Mu and a few people were sitting around.
There are no clues to follow during the day, the enemy is in the dark, and Mo Qianhe therefore proposed to arrest Wednesday tonight, pry out the plan of the three major sects from his mouth as soon as possible, and then return to Shushan.
Zhao Zhitang disagreed, and fell into a stalemate for a while.
The night breeze is gentle and the stars are dotted.
In this moment of silence.
There was a knock on the door.
Zhao Zhitang and Mo Qianhe extended their respective divine senses almost at the same time, and the people outside the house were all slightly shocked.
"Senior Brother Zhuang, are you back so soon?"
Zhao Zhitang opened the courtyard door and greeted warmly, "It's been hard work along the way." ”
"Thanks to Senior Brother Zhao's trust, it's not hard,"
Zhuang Ance smiled and walked straight forward to greet Su Mu and the others, as if nothing had ever happened between them.
His appearance is actually reasonable, because he is also one of the members of the sect who ordered him to assist Zhao Zhitang.
"I heard Senior Brother Zhao say that Senior Brother Zhuang went to investigate the witch god sect Wu Yan who appeared in the Empty Cave Mountain, did he gain anything?" Su Mu sipped his tea, looking forward to asking.
"I found something,"
Zhuang Ance seemed to have come to his home, picked up the teapot and poured himself several cups, and said slowly: "This Wu Yan is the disciple grandson of the Eighth Witch King of the Witch God Sect, and his master is named Wu Xuan, and he is now in Chaoge City,"
He took a slight breath, looked at Zhao Zhitang and said, "Senior brother, Wu Xuan is a disciple of the Eighth Witch King of the Witch God Sect, if we can catch this person, I believe everything can be settled." ”
