Chapter 108: Clues
But then Xiao Zhong was a little worried
"Now that the city is in such chaos, if you go out rashly, I'm afraid you will be in danger."
Chang Sheng said with a smile
"It's okay, I have someone to protect me."
The two walked out of the City Lord's Mansion and walked to the street, looking at Chang Sheng in surprise
"This is where to go."
Chang Sheng said
"Go find an important clue."
In the distance, when the officers and soldiers of the Chuanfeng battalion saw Chang Sheng, their faces immediately turned unkind, if they weren't afraid of Wan Chaoyang, they would rush up and capture Chang Sheng alive in the next moment.
Wan Chaoyang snorted coldly, his body was like a thunderclap, the internal force outside his body was like an explosion, and the terrifying cracking sound directly penetrated the entire street, shaking the officers and soldiers in the distance and almost falling down by accident.
Chang Sheng and the others on the side were also dumbfounded, Chang Sheng sighed
"Brother Wan, with your internal strength, I'm afraid you're about to approach the Great Grandmaster."
Wan Chaoyang waved his hand, unimpressed
"My internal strength, according to the peerless masters on the rivers and lakes back then, is not more than Erer."
Those officers and soldiers of the Chuanfeng Battalion who were about to move were suddenly like wilted leeks again.
"Do you need me to come with you?"
Chang Sheng shook his head
"No, but I'm worried about Lao Yan, can Brother Wan go to the palace for me."
Wan Chaoyang glanced at those officers and soldiers, nodded, and then, the whole person rose out of thin air, his body was like a white ribbon, floating lightly to a high place, and then his toes lightly stepped on the eaves of the eaves on the side, like a dragonfly dotting water, only a little bit, and then jumped high again, jumping left and right above the high house, like a flexible white rabbit.
"What a handsome breeze blowing willows!"
Qin Wuyi admired again and again on the side.
"Lord Qin has ever seen this kind of light skill?"
Chang Sheng asked with interest.
Qin Wuyi nodded
"You look at the posture of Wan Daxia, like a willow branch swaying with the wind, this kind of light skill may not be as fast as stepping on the snow without a trace, the dragon sees the head but not the tail, but when you practice to the depths, the body can be like a willow branch, swaying with the wind, almost no internal force, this kind of light skill is not a secret in the rivers and lakes, but it is unique to be able to practice such skills as Wan Daxia."
While speaking, the officers and soldiers of the Chuanfeng Battalion saw Wan Chaoyang leaving, but they had no fear and directly surrounded Chang Sheng.
Seeing this, Qin Wuyi blocked Chang Sheng behind him
"City Lord, go back to your house quickly, I'll block it for you here."
Chang Sheng shook his head lightly and walked in front of him
"It doesn't matter."
At this moment, the ground shook violently, everyone was shocked, and the officers and soldiers of the Chuanfeng Battalion all looked dazed.
A puff of dust filled the air, and everyone couldn't help but look behind them, only to see a large group of men galloping towards it.
Wu Qiang, the commander of the Chuanfeng Battalion, had an ugly face and said angrily
"The entire forbidden army in Taiyang City has been controlled, where did this man come from!"
The officers and soldiers on the side were all silent, where did they dare to answer.
The group of people quickly approached, but saw that those people were dressed in different clothes, but they were all Jianghu guests.
One of the big men saw Chang Sheng and laughed loudly
"Hahahaha, Sister Chang Sheng, you finally remembered us."
The crowd around him also laughed.
Chang Sheng smiled and saluted everyone
"You are all seniors in the rivers and lakes, and when you come to this capital, you naturally have your own things to do, if the little sister is not a last resort, I really don't want to trouble your seniors."
"Hey, Sister Chang Sheng, where is this, don't talk about others, my ghost valley and the head of the Chang family are also very close, and now you ask for it, you will naturally respond to your request."
"The power of my salt gang thirty-six villages in the capital can be at the disposal of Chang Sheng's sister."
"My Heaven and Earth Alliance also listens to Chang Sheng's sister."
"What are you little sects, my Sword Pavilion is supporting Senior Brother Chang!"
"My sword gate will not fall behind your Sword Pavilion."
……
Everyone, you say a word, that Wu Qiang's face is as gloomy as water, just walked a Wanchao, there are so many forces in the rivers and lakes gathered at this time, today, no matter what, it can't stop Chang Sheng.
He tilted his head and whispered to a centurion beside him
"You hurry up and inform the Prime Minister that the city lord is out of control."
With that, the centurion quietly hid in the crowd.
Wu Qiang waved his hand coldly
"Retreat!"
Immediately, the officers and soldiers of the Chuanfeng Battalion once again retreated into the distance.
Those Jianghu people were not taboo to speak, and said loudly in front of these officers and soldiers
"Sister Chang Sheng, if you want me to say that you don't need to be so troublesome, we will gather people and go directly to the palace, and those miscellaneous soldiers can't stop us and others, it's really not good, wouldn't it be nice to get you a position as the empress!"
When Chang Sheng heard this, she laughed out loud, and in front of these Jianghu people, she seemed to be more comfortable and said playfully
"Don't make fun of my little sister, my little sister doesn't have that ability."
"This is happy, but it can't solve the problem, although the palace chaos has caused the capital to be restless, but I always feel that the root cause is not in the palace."
Those Jianghu people can understand the current situation in the court, the big man waved his hand
"That's it, what does the girl say, let's do it, let's listen to Chang Sheng's sister."
Chang Sheng said with a smile
"Then I bother you to guard this Taiyang Road, now that the whole city is under control, only here, can there be a moment of peace."
"It's simple, I'll hold this place, and I can't get in as many miscellaneous soldiers as I keep it."
Wu Qiang, who was in the distance, calmed down, and the officers and soldiers on the side asked
"Commander, what is going on?"
Wu Qiang said
"It's okay, it's the same here, our purpose is not to kill."
The officer and soldier nodded and gave orders behind them
"Rest in place!"
It didn't take long for Chang Sheng and Xiao Zhong to ride to the shore of Changming Lake under the escort of several masters of the rivers and lakes.
A few people walked along the lakeside for a while, and Xiao Zhong signaled to stop.
Looking at the lake, Xiao Zhong said
"This is it."
Chang Sheng walked to the lake, and the cool water splashed Chang Sheng's skirt.
In the distance, the lake shimmered, and on the opposite bank was the vermilion palace wall, and in front of the palace wall, there was a place where the trees were extremely luxuriant, almost obscuring the palace wall, and if it was a night when the view was not good, it would only be possible to see this grove.
Xiao Zhong said, pointing to the woods
"The green-eyed monster I saw that night was in that location."
Chang Sheng pondered for a moment and muttered to himself
"If that's the case, then most of the monsters are from the palace...... Could it be that the palace was infiltrated a long time ago? ”
She nodded slightly
"It is indeed possible, Wang Huan's rebellion was by no means improvised, according to Ji Shen and Lu Ying, that night they saw the eunuch leading the man in black into the palace, and then they wanted to chase after them, but those people suddenly disappeared under their noses."
Thinking of this, her eyes lit up
"No, if I'm right, they didn't leave the palace at all that night, they didn't leave until the night of the next day!"
She said
"Let's go to the other side!"
"Wait."
Xiao Zhong stopped her
"Although I don't understand what you're talking about, since you said that Ji Shen and Lu Ying are defected forbidden soldiers, how can you believe what they say."
Chang Sheng stopped and explained
"That's what they said before the poison, I think, there is a certain amount of credibility, in short, just go to the other side and see."
So they came to the grove on the other side.
It is said to be a small forest, but there are a few more trees than on the side, and it looks more dense, but in a few steps, you can walk through the trees from the main road to the shore of the lake.
Chang Sheng stood on the shore and looked at the grove behind him
"I see, these trees grow more densely, so it's easy to see a forest at night when the line of sight is poor."
"Here!"
Xiao Zhong pointed to the ground, Chang Sheng looked over, but saw that on the muddy ground on the shore of the lake, there were many footprints of people walking.
"Luckily, there has been no rain these days, and the footprints have not been washed away."
Chang Sheng said with a smile.
Xiao Zhong said
"It's not a top-secret place, maybe ordinary people have come here."
Chang Sheng shook his head
"No, you look at one of the rows of footprints, it is obviously much deeper, which shows that the owner of the footprints at that time was burdened, and in combination with the sound of falling water you heard that night, it can be confirmed that even if ordinary people come to play, they will not have to bear weight."
"Sister Chang Sheng, there's something here."
Not far away, the Jianghu guests who came with them shouted Chang Sheng.
The two walked along the shore of the lake, but saw the quackman holding a brown silk thread in his hand.
On the side of the silk thread, there were a few strands of thread that seemed to have been torn off by something, Chang Sheng touched it, and it felt like silk.
"Brown thread?"
Chang Sheng thought for a while, but didn't understand where the silk thread would be used.
"This thread is very similar to the silk used to make the sword spike, but the silk of the sword spike should not be so long."
Jianghu Ke woke up the dreamer with a word, and Chang Sheng suddenly realized.
"But there's something else to discover."
Chang Sheng asked the Jianghu guest again.
Jianghu hesitated for a moment and said
"I don't know if it's right, although it's very much like the silk on the sword spike, but I think these footprints are very wrong."
"Oh? Something is wrong. ”
"According to this silk thread, the person who came here is likely to be a Jianghu person who uses a sword, but these footprints are vague, even the deepest one, you can't see the slightest martial arts skills, you look at the deepest footprints in the row, crooked, different shades, indicating that the person is very difficult."
"Look at the other footprints, just compare them with mine."
As he spoke, the Jianghu Ke casually stepped on the ground, but saw that his footprints were not only clearly visible compared to others, but also more evenly stressed.
Jianghu Ke looked at Xiao Zhong again and said
"If it's just that, if you look at the footprints left by this male baby, the footprints left by these people are obviously not as good as the male babies who have not practiced martial arts in their teens."
"Just looking at the footprints, it's like the footprints of Chang Sheng's sister, it's a group of women."
Xiao Zhong was woken up by the Jianghu guest and said
"Speaking of which, the monster I saw that night is really not burly."
Chang Sheng's face changed, and his eyes shone with a burning light.
"That's not right! Wrong, the size of these footprints is by no means the size of ordinary women, the footprints are in line with the size of a normal man, but the strength is as weak as a woman, this brown silk thread is not a sword spike, but a dust. ”
"And the only person who meets these two conditions at the same time is the eunuch!"
