Jin Yuze and Zhou Tianlu looked at Shen Lian who was out of shape, and their eyebrows were full of panic.

Although their position is inconspicuous, there are trees around them that are not easy to be noticed.

But there are still hidden dangers, if they are seen by the celebrant and the people of the Ministry of Rites, they will think that the three of them are passive and slacking off, if they are usually fine, but now in extraordinary times, the emperor is at the altar, which will be punished.

"You don't feel it?" Shen Lian looked at his two colleagues in surprise, pointed to the surface of the lake and said, "...... in the lake"

Before he finished speaking, Shen Lian was stunned, at this time the lake returned to calm, there were no ripples at all, and everything just now seemed to have happened at all.

If it weren't for the fact that the sword sound of the Changhong Sword in his hand was still there, Shen Lian would definitely think that he had hallucinated.

"Have you been too tired lately? Let's go to the Workshop Division tonight to relax. Jin Yuze picked up Shen Lian and helped him tidy up his clothes.

"I must be too tired." Zhou Tianlu echoed on the side, "I was like this once before, I was tired and had auditory hallucinations, and I couldn't sleep, and then I stayed in the teaching department for two days, and everything was cured." ”

Definitely not an illusion.

Shen Lian shook his head, he was sure that there was an abnormality under the lake just now.

Suddenly, he thought of the nine-tailed fox that Zhou Tianlu said, and the fox-like cloud he saw before.

Could this be the case?

At this time, a team of celebrants passed by the public road, and Shen Lian and the three of them hurriedly stood back in their positions.

The ceremony of sacrificing to the heavens continued, and according to the previous division of labor, the people of the Ministry of Rites and the celebrant were busy.

The ceremony lasted until the end of the afternoon, during which there were no further incidents.

After the members of the royal family and important members of the imperial court left the scene, Shen Lian, the little officials in charge of security, were able to leave.

Before leaving, Shen Lian glanced back at the altar and Sun Moon Lake, and had an indescribable feeling in his heart.

"Tianlu, can you tell me the story of your demon emperor?" On the way back to the Yamen, Shen Lian rode a horse and walked side by side with Zhou Tianlu, curiously inquiring.

"Are you interested?"

"Hmm." Shen Lian nodded.

After hearing this, Jin Yuze also came over, "Tell me, when the story is heard, I can tell it to the girl in the Teaching Department in the future." ”

This was told to him by his grandfather as a bedtime story when Zhou Tianlu was a child.

It is rumored that thousands of years ago, there was a war between the Western Demon Court and the Buddha Kingdom, and the Ten Thousand Demon Army of the Demon Court was led by the Demon Emperor Nine-Tailed Sky Fox, all the way to the ground, occupying almost the entire territory of the Buddha Kingdom.

Later, the monks of the Buddha Kingdom performed the secret art of Buddhism and summoned the Buddha Lord to come to the world before defeating the Demon Emperor.

It is said that the Buddha wanted to kill the Demon Emperor at that time, but Emperor Dayu, in the name of the Son of Heaven, asked the Buddha to seal the Demon Emperor under the altar in the capital to guard the fortune of Dayu.

Shen Lian didn't understand what he heard, but he was keenly aware that there was a problem.

If this story is true, then there may be some kind of deal between Dayu and the Demon Court.

The original intention of the Buddha was to kill the Demon Emperor, but Emperor Dayu came forward and saved the life of the Demon Emperor, and was sealed instead, and it was sealed in the capital of Dayu, not under the jurisdiction of the Buddha State.

Now Dayu advocates Taoism and rejects Buddhism, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like it has a good relationship with Buddhism.

Was the situation just now that this Demon Emperor was impacting the seal?

Shen Lian suddenly became agitated, and he didn't dare to continue to think about it.

If the Demon Emperor is allowed to rush out, will it be bloodied in the capital?

No, no, there are many masters in the capital, and with the blessing of royal luck, the demon emperor does not dare to mess around.

And there is also a human sect master in charge.

it, the sky is falling, there's a high top.

Shaking his head and throwing these messy thoughts out of his head, Shen Lian took his thoughts back to the Teaching Workshop Division.

Because his two friends were already discussing what tricks to use tonight.

"I have a ......trick that falls from the sky," Jin Yuze excitedly taught Zhou Tianlu a stunt.

The latter was so excited when he heard it that he couldn't wait to go to the Teaching Workshop Division immediately to have a real fight.

After returning to the Shadow Secret Guard's Yamen, Shen Lian originally wanted to report the strange state of Sun Moon Lake to Tie Wuru, but after thinking about it, he gave up.

More is better than less, I just want to make a little money, three wives and four concubines, I really don't want to get involved in these bad things again.

Faculty Division, let's go.

Shen Lian misses Yunshuang's three-inch incorruptible tongue that can speak well.

But this time he was disappointed, and when he arrived at Qin Yaju, he learned that Yunshuang Niangzi occasionally felt cold and closed the door.

On the second day, Shen Lian had just lit up, and before he had drunk a glass of water, he was called out by Jiang Mingjie in a hurry.

When he rushed to Jiang Mingjie's room, he saw that Jin Yuze and Zhou Tianlu were also there, and both of them looked confused.

"I was just assigned a task to raid my home, and the three of you have been patrolling the outer city so hard recently, let's go for a trip." After Jiang Mingjie entered the door, he handed out the three documents in his hand to Shen Lian and the others.

Raiding the house?

Shen Lian was immediately overjoyed.

That's a fat gap.

According to the laws of Dayu, when raiding a house, the confiscated property should be counted one by one, recorded in the book, and finally handed over to the state treasury.

Please note that this is the place to hand over the records to the national treasury.

If there are one or two valuable calligraphy and paintings, a dozen gold ingots, and three or five pieces of antique porcelain..... It is normal for carelessness, negligence, carelessness, inventory errors, etc., to not be recorded.

"Raiding a house?" Jin Yuze was overjoyed and hurriedly took over the paperwork.

"Well, the culprit is Zhan Cheng in the matter given by the Ministry of Rites, who embezzled the silver of the sacrifice ceremony, and now the evidence is conclusive, and he was sentenced to raid his home." Jiang Mingjie briefly passed on the case to Shen Lian and the three of them, "This operation is led by Xie Feng and Xie Baihu, a total of forty people, ten people from his hall, and three people from each of the remaining halls, the hour is almost up, you go and gather." ”

"Yes." The three of them were ordered to leave and quickly rushed to the meeting place.

Shen Lian was in a good mood, "The leader is really good, such a fat errand actually gave us a place." ”

"You don't know." Jin Yuze had an expression that you were a rookie and didn't know what to do, "Our leader is a well-known landlord in the yamen, and he doesn't care about three or five hundred taels of silver at all." ”

"How?" Shen Lian became interested.

Jin Yuze looked around, and after confirming that Jiang Mingjie didn't follow, he gossiped and said: "Our sister-in-law's mother's house is the largest rice merchant in Yizhou City, with a lot of property, and the old man only has such a daughter, it is said that when he got married, his sister-in-law brought a dowry worth more than 100,000 taels......"

After hearing this, Shen Lian was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth.

"Hundreds of thousands of taels?"

"Mmmm, or why do you say that the boss is waiting for the confinement in a hurry? There's a reason for that. Jin Yuze said.

Forehead..... The story of the withered silk man and Bai Fumei?

"So what is our background?" Shen Lian thought for a while and asked.

"The kind of family with four walls, one poor and two white, and there is no choice but to succeed." Zhou Tianlu returned to Shen Lian's question.

"It's a godsend." Shen Lian couldn't help but sigh.

"What, it's man-made." Jin Yuze waved his hand and denied Shen Lian's statement.

Shen Lian looked at his expression and realized that there was a story in it, so he didn't speak, waiting for Jin Yuze's next words.

Jin Yuze did not disappoint him.

"It is said that the head of the year was on a mission in Yizhou City, and accidentally rescued his sister-in-law who was kidnapped. Jin Yuze winked at Shen Lian.

"Isn't this a godsend?" Shen Lian was confused when he heard it.

"Ahem." Zhou Tianlu cleared his throat and said embarrassedly: "The robbers are pretended to be by the two of us. ”

"Commanded by the leader." Finally, Jin Yuze added.

Shen Lian was stunned.

Forehead.... It's really man-made.
