233 The Storm Rises (2nd Shift)
The moon moved to the west building, and the grassland was cold and windy.
On the streets, the bonfires have been extinguished, and the people who sang and danced around the bonfires have long since left, and all that remains is the cold and lonely streets, and the garbage rolling around in the cold wind.
Whew!
The evening breeze swept through the streets, blowing the lanterns hanging in front of the shops in the evening breeze, like hanging human heads, which looked so strange.
Several of the originally lively streets have receded from the noise, and the shops on both sides are already guarded by the iron generals, only the Zhenyi Fang, which is already brightly lit at the moment, and dozens of city lord guards have surrounded the Zhenyi Fang, all of them are wearing armor, holding cold and shining spears, and their whole bodies exude the murderous aura that belongs to the soldiers.
"Please, the city lord of Jiwu will catch the suspect for us in time, so that Zhenyifang can return to normal as soon as possible. Yan Ya said to Ji Wu with a smile.
"Thank you for your generosity, I will definitely solve the case earlier!" Ji Wu said lightly towards Yan Ya, but he accentuated the pronunciation of the word "generosity" in a deep voice, "By the way, I will summon the clerk named Xiaohua at any time, and please tell her so that she is ready to go to the City Lord's Mansion at any time." ”
"The grass people know!" Yan Ya made a simple salute towards Ji Wu.
"Thank you!"
Wow!
Ji Wu turned around suddenly, and the cloak behind him suddenly swept up the hunting wind, and then he took a firm step, leaving the Zhenyi Workshop with a mighty body, and said as he walked: "Ten cold and cold winds howling in nine directions, wearing clothes, flying frost in August; ”
"You tell the ghost, don't do anything to Xiaohua for the time being!" Yan Ya watched Ji Wu leave his sight with a smile, and then his face suddenly turned cold, and he said to the subordinates beside him.
"Yes!"
Immediately, Yan Ya looked at the direction where Ji Wu disappeared with a smile, and said triumphantly: "Hmph, you saved her for a while, can you save her for a lifetime?" Maybe you should think about your situation. ”
"Let's all go back and rest! tomorrow. It's open as usual!"
It was only half an hour after the lights went out and left, and the Zhenyi Shop turned out to be deserted from bustle to cold, and there seemed to be many unsettling ghosts flowing in the darkness.
On the street, Ji Wu hurriedly walked towards the City Lord's Mansion with dozens of City Lord guards.
Duration.
The man who pretended to be the master asked Ji Wu very suspiciously, "City Lord, are you worried that Xiaohua will be assassinated by them?"
"Can't you see it?" Xiaohua had a full stomach but couldn't say it, and her words were reflecting the two strange people who appeared in the afternoon, but Yan Ya interrupted Xiaohua and bluntly said that Xiaohua was hallucinating because of fright. In fact, Yan Ya is hiding something. And Xiaohua knows about that matter, so if you want Xiaohua to keep the secret forever, the only way is to ......" Ji Wu analyzed Yan Ya's behavior to the master as he walked, but he wanted to know how Xiaoxue died at the moment, "What about you? What clues have you found from Xiaoxue's corpse?"
"City Lord, I suspect that Xiaoxue's body was disposed of before we came, and there are many clues and disappeared. Obviously, the people at Treasure Clothes Shop don't want us to find the murderer. Judging from Xiaoxue's corpse alone, there are no bruises on her neck, but her face is purple with pork liver. His pupils were dilated and bloodshot, and he died of complete suffocation. "Master analyzed the important information embodied on Xiaoxue's corpse for Ji Wu from a professional point of view, but there is one point. The master was very depressed, "City Lord, why don't you let me take Xiaoxue's corpse? I have the right to request an autopsy to check out the clues that her body left for us. ”
"There are two reasons! First, as you can see, Zhenyi Fang has actually cleaned up the remaining information on Xiaoxue's corpse before we arrived, and even covered up the necessary clues to solve the case in a unified voice. This seems unreasonable, why? It's very simple, Zhen Yifang doesn't want us to find the murderer for them, so what's the point of us taking Xiaoxue's body? If my guess is correct, the people of the Yan family are chasing down the two strange people who appeared in the afternoon. The city lord of Ji Wu didn't seem to be the slightest worried about this, and what he said was so easy, "Second, we don't need to care about how Xiaoxue died at all? Since the people of the Yan family are actively looking for the murderer, we can give them a pennant when they find the murderer, which reads: "The best family, and explain to the outside world how the Yan family actively cooperated with the city lord to track down the murderer? How to catch the murderer? Wait! You say, why do we need to spend so much effort?" Whether or not to take away Xiaoxue's body is not the result of this matter at all. ”
Hearing this, the master gave a thumbs up to the City Lord of Ji Wu convincingly, and he had to admire the wisdom of the City Lord of Ji Wu, he could think of such a countermeasure in such a short period of time, and he really deserved the name of the City Lord, "Praise, high!"
"It's just the city lord, have you ever thought that Xiao Xue's death is actually a trap for us from Zhenyi Fang?"
"Yes, no!" Ji Wu deliberately sold Guanzi.
"Is there any?" the master asked.
"Haha, let's go back early! The City Lord Ji Wu was not prepared to explain too much to the master, but decisively diverted the topic, "By the way, you sent someone to quietly follow the Yan family, pay close attention to the Yan family's movements, and never let the Yan family hide the suspect; ”
"Yes!"
In the Southern Inn, Ji Feng was walking the exact same route as when he was "wandering" on the first floor of Zhenyi Fang, but at this moment, he would leave a lamp at each node, and the flame of the lamp turned out to be a faint blue, which looked particularly weird.
After completing all the routes, Ji Feng walked out of the light circle.
"Do you really want to continue?" Ji Feng asked Mo Cangli, who was sitting on the bed.
"Go on!"
Hearing this, after Ji Feng breathed a long sigh of relief, he used a powerful spiritual force, "Open the Heavenly Dao, draw spiritual light, borrow the spiritual body, and extinguish the evil energy with the true fire of Samadhi!", as soon as the spell fell, the spiritual energy suddenly rose, and seven points of light appeared between the hands that pinched the seal, and then the seven points of light fell into the seven oil lamps under the guidance of Ji Feng.
Boom!
Seven blue lights shot out from the seven oil lamps, and then intertwined into one point, and suddenly Ji Feng felt that the air became hot, and when it was even more weird, on the first floor of the silent and unmanned Zhenyi Fang, a blue flame suddenly appeared, and then, the blue flame was even more "bang", cracking into seven blue flames, and flew into the seven wardrobes that were cast by Ji Feng.
Rumble!
In an instant, the entire Zhenyi Workshop was engulfed in raging flames, and the red flames directly reflected Huabei City as if it were day, and even the sky was as terrifying as if it was burned red.
"Where's the fire?"
"It's the Treasure Clothes Workshop!"
The Yan family erupted in anger that had never been seen before, and Yan Nuo, the head of the Yan family, personally led people to hurry to the Zhenyi Workshop, during which the roar like a lion's roar resounded in the sky over the entire Huabei City.
"It's the Treasure Clothes Workshop!"
The reaction was the fastest, of course, it was Ji Wu, who had not yet arrived home, and originally planned to go back safely and enjoy the rare comfort, but now he fell into shock, who would dare to attack Zhenyifang?
Of course, what worries Ji Wu the most is whether the Yan family will directly rely on themselves for this matter, and will they have enough reason to report it to the empire?
"Sleep!"
When the whole Huabei City was lively, Ji Feng yawned for a long time, then threw the oil lamp into the storage ring, and lay comfortably on the bed, thinking about the next action, so that he couldn't sleep for a long time, because there were too many things that he might need to worry about, and too many that he might need to avoid, imagining how to make the outcome of things become the result he wanted.
Why did the shopkeeper look for the monster's nest, and why was Brother Hao's behavior so weird?
Too many questions, when Ji Feng closed his eyes, they poured into Ji Feng's mind like a tide, coupled with the increasingly noisy voices outside the inn, Ji Feng could only sit up cross-legged and start cultivating in the end.
It has been too long since the spiritual priests of the consummation stage needed to find an opportunity to break through.
Zhenyifang was completely reduced to ashes in a raging fire, and what is very puzzling is that the fire that almost burned the sky did not burn the house separated from Zhenyifang by a wall, it seems that the fire was prepared for Zhenyifang alone, of course, there is even more suspense, that is, even if Yan Nuo uses a powerful primordial spirit to extinguish the fire, he can't extinguish the slightest spark.
According to common sense, the wind brought by the martial spirit displayed by Yan Nuo can completely suppress all the flames, on the contrary, it will make the flames more vigorous, but this time, the wind brought by Yan Nuo's martial spirit not only did not suppress the flames, but also did not make the flames more vigorous.
It was a fire full of quirks.
And at this moment, the death of Xiaoxue has also spread in Huabei City, and everyone is speculating whether Zhenyifang executed Xiaoxue because of those two strange people, so that Xiaoxue's soul did not disperse and came to Zhenyifang for revenge, so there is such a strange fire.
The turmoil arose, and for a while, Zhenyi Fang, together with the Yan family, were pushed to the cusp of the storm.
"Who released the news of Xiaoxue's death?" Yan Nuo stood in front of the ashes of the Zhenyi Workshop, his eyes were angry, and the terrifying aura that belonged to the spirit general spread out, making it difficult for those onlookers to breathe.
"Dad, it is estimated that it is someone under Ji Wu. Yan Ya whispered in Yan Nuo's ear, "Because the ghost is already on the way home for Xiaohua, give her to ......."
"Hmph, he broke the balance between each other, then don't blame me for being ruthless!" Yan Nuo said viciously.
"Dad, we can completely let Ji Wu take on this case, and release the news, just say that a strange person has infiltrated Huabei City, killed people and set fires, and did everything. Then he secretly wiped out a few households, so that the people of Huabei City pointed the finger at Ji Wu, if Ji Wu could not solve the case in time, it would inevitably make the people in Huabei City panic, and even everyone was in danger. When the time comes, we will explain this matter to the empire, hehe, Ji Wu's road to the city lord will come to an end!" Yan Ya was making suggestions.
"Good way! Just do it!" Yan Nuo was quite satisfied with his second daughter. (To be continued......)
