Chapter Ninety-One: Coincidence and Murder
Then Fang Road, Hanhai County, Hanhai City.
After the group of brocade-clothed guards rode out of the teleportation hall on the bloodthirsty tiger, they ignored the panicked guards and the travelers waiting for the teleportation, and stopped at a corner of the square outside.
Leng Chuang placed the token that Diao Wenhong had borrowed before in front of the cockroach's nose for a while, and fed another pill, and the originally listless cockroach butterfly suddenly came to her senses.
Three pairs of swarthy tentacles poked forward, twisting and turning back and forth a few times, and then suddenly pointed in one direction in unison.
At the same time, two pairs of wings covered with shallow scales were also fluttering and fanning.
If it weren't for Leng Chuang's tight grip on his feet, I'm afraid he would have taken off long ago.
"My lord, I found it!"
"Chase!"
A crisp and neat shout, and then, a hundred tigers came out in unison, and disappeared from the square in a few blinks of an eye.
The south gate of Hanhai City.
It was the second quarter of the year (22:30), and the gates had been closed two quarters of an hour earlier.
In addition to the city guards on the tower of the city gate, there are some soldiers on the wall who are standing tall, but the palace in the gate tower is constantly guessing and shouting.
Although dozens of soldiers at the gate of the city below were also standing neatly, they were also chatting and joking between the two and two, which was not very serious.
"Huh, there's movement!"
One of the soldiers felt the ground tremble slightly, and when he heard the muffled sound that was getting closer and closer, his face suddenly changed, and he hurriedly blew the whistle hanging on his chest.
The rapid whistle not only made the soldiers under the gatehouse nervously hold their weapons, but also made the noisy sound in the gatehouse disappear in an instant.
"Bloodthirsty, bloodthirsty tiger!"
When he saw more than dozens of bloodthirsty tigers rushing fiercely in the distance, the soldiers under the gate suddenly trembled, and some of them were even trembling, and they almost wanted to flee with their legs.
"Calm down!
Hearing the foreman's scolding, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, it's good to have someone......
"Stop, the city gate has been sealed, don't leave the city at this time!"
On the tower of the city, Tian Zhi, the soldier on duty, had already walked out, and when he saw the figure on the back of the bloodthirsty tiger and the clothes of the person in the front, his face changed greatly.
"Stop you! Hurry up and open the city gate, that's the Lord of the Jinyi Guard!"
The foreman below was stunned for a moment, but at this time, he also saw the outfit of the person opposite clearly, and hurriedly shouted.
"Quick, get out of the way, open the gates!"
Afterwards, several horizontal rows of iron horses were quickly moved to the sides, and at the same time, the mechanism winch was activated, and the heavy city gates began to slowly open.
As soon as they had done this, the brocade guards rushed out like a gust of wind, without even saying a word.
But no one dared to say anything, that was the thousand households of Jinyiwei!
And there is also a bloodthirsty tiger as a mount, I'm afraid it's not from the royal capital!
After all, they had never heard of a bloodthirsty tiger as a mount among the Jinyi guards of Sui Fang Dao.
Tian Zhi on the tower of the city gate also let out a sigh of relief, but the next moment, his face changed.
The adults have explained before that they should pay careful attention to outsiders, especially the characters on the official face, could it be that the arrival of these brocade guards has something to do with this?
As soon as he thought of this, Tian Zhi's heart suddenly sank, and after arranging for others to guard on his behalf, he hurried to the city.
......
A valley near the coast somewhere east-south of the Suifang Peninsula.
Deep in the valley, in a stone cave deep underground, the cold chill spreads, as if it were icy and snowy.
On the crystal clear cold platform, a young woman with a beautiful face was cultivating on her knees.
The woman's face was frosty, but her hair was constantly steaming, and the sight of hot and cold looked strange.
Suddenly, the woman's ears moved slightly, and then she quickly opened her eyes, and at the same time, her white palm was already holding the hilt of the sword lying flat on one side.
Call~
A light breeze swept by, and then a figure appeared in front of him.
The woman's expression suddenly relaxed, and at the same time, her face overflowed with joy.
"Father, didn't you say that it would take more than a month to go, why did you come back so quickly?"
What suddenly appeared was an old man with wrinkles and a large pale cyan birthmark on his left cheek.
If there is a high-level person of the Ghost Control Gate here, he will definitely be able to recognize this person, because he is Diao Wenhong, the master of the Ghost Control Gate!
Diao Wenhong's originally gloomy face couldn't help but feel a little soothed after seeing his beloved daughter, but his expression was still not good-looking.
"Alas, something went wrong, and the father had to get out of there. But it doesn't matter, just come back to accompany you more. ”
Diao Wenhong said it easily, but in fact, his heart was extremely heavy.
Up until this point, he couldn't figure out what had gone wrong.
That thing was obviously extremely hidden, and it was said that there should not be a tail left, but why did the Jinyi Guard find them in the first place?
Diao Wenhong couldn't figure it out, he had doubted his subordinates and those allies, but unfortunately he had no way to verify it now.
In addition, after this incident, I am afraid that the ghost control gate will be removed from Dasheng!
He went to Shuhua Mansion this time, but he brought most of the main forces of the gate with him, and the nest will surely be discovered soon.
At that time, I am afraid that the entire ghost control gate will only be left with him, the lonely master!
"Forget it, let's not talk about that. Hey, Lei'er, you've broken through to the seventh level of Xuanli?"
The divine sense swept over Diao Yinglei's body, and when he discovered the other party's cultivation, Diao Wenhong suddenly looked surprised.
You must know that when he left more than ten days ago, his daughter had just broken through the sixth level of Xuanli.
Unexpectedly, in just ten days, it broke again!
Diao Yinglei grinned, jumped off the stage and threw herself into Diao Wenhong's arms, and said happily:
"It's not the credit of this Hanpotai.
This Han Potai is not only pure and abundant in Yuan power, but when her daughter is cultivating, she can also refine and compress the Yuan Liquid in her body;
What's more, it can also refresh the mind, so that her daughter's cultivation state is always at its best!
But if you really want to talk about the biggest hero, it has to be the father, hehe~
If it weren't for the fact that his father found this treasure half a year ago, he specially gave it to his daughter to cultivate.
How could my daughter smoothly break through to the Xuanye Realm, and by now she has already reached the Xuanye Sevenfold~"
Diao Wenhong patted Diao Yinglei's head lovingly, with a doting face.
"As a father for all these years, you are the only daughter, who else can you hurt if you don't hurt?
But speaking of which, my daughter is a real genius now!"
Diao Yinglei couldn't help but pout, her face full of unhappiness.
"My daughter is only twenty-eight years old now, and at the age of twenty-eight, she is already a seven-fold Xuanli, this is called a demon!
Hmph! My father didn't know how to praise people.
Don't think that your daughter doesn't know, those in the outside world who can break through to the Xuanye Realm at the age of thirty are considered geniuses, and my daughter doesn't know how far beyond them!"
Diao Wenhong's face stiffened when he heard this, and he remembered the guy who forced him to flee.
Compared with that guy, how could his daughter dare to be called a demon?
But it's not good for him to say this in front of his daughter.
"Okay, okay, my daughter is a demon, okay?
Hahaha, if there is anything you don't understand about your cultivation recently, hurry up and talk about it, and solve your doubts for your father!"
Diao Yinglei wrinkled her nose with a smug face, and hurriedly pulled Diao Wenhong to sit on the Hanpo platform, she really had many questions she wanted to ask.
After sitting down, Diao Yinglei suddenly heard another thing.
"By the way, father, when the daughter was chasing a sable the night before, she found a lot of men in black in a valley seven or eight miles away.
And there were quite a few people who were shackled in and out of several holes with pickaxes and the like.
It's a pity that her daughter's strength is still too weak, and she is afraid of being discovered, so she didn't dare to approach.
I don't know what they're digging for, if there is any treasure?"
Diao Wenhong couldn't help but be stunned, and after squinting and pondering for a while, he shook his head with a smile.
"Leave it alone for now, wait until after the wee hours of the morning, and go and explore it for my father, and it will naturally be clear. ”
......
Hanhai City, the residence of Ding Yi, the head of the City Health Division.
"Brother Yan, you really don't know any news that other Jinyi guards are coming to Hanhai City?"
Ding Yi squinted his eyes and stared at Yan Feibai in disbelief.
Yan Feibai frowned unhappily, shook his robe, and was a little impatient.
"Brother Ding, I've said it several times, no!
Jinyiwei has its own jurisdiction, and if you want to handle cases across domains, you will report the news in advance.
I haven't received any news now, so of course I haven't.
I said, "Why did you invite me in the middle of the night?"
Ding Yi saw that Yan Feibai's expression did not seem to be fake, but his face was even more ugly.
"What's the matter?
Not long ago, a team of about 100 Jinyi guards suddenly came to Hanhai City.
After that, without saying hello to anyone, he went out of the city directly through the south gate and went straight to the south!
Although these brocade guards are only a thousand households, they are all riding bloodthirsty tigers, and the origin must not be simple!
I suspect they are likely to have come from the royal city!
Now you say, why did I rush to invite you!"
Yan Feibai's face suddenly changed greatly, and the front half of his body leaning on the chair stood up even more suddenly, and his face turned a little pale.
"What do you mean, do you think?"
Ding Yi nodded slowly but heavily with a cold face.
"If it weren't for that thing, how could the Jinyi Guards of the royal capital suddenly arrive and not reveal the slightest news to you?"
Yan Feibai shook his head violently.
"No, that's not right!
Those who knew about it were either stared at and digging there, or they were killed!
How could this news get out?
Moreover, if the news really got out, how could the Jinyi Guards of the royal capital only send this kind of manpower?
I'm afraid they will send a large army to slaughter you and me as soon as possible!"
Ding Yi's face was a little cloudy, and he rubbed his fingers and shook his head:
"Because of that, I can't be sure either.
Maybe someone found a clue from a distance, but they couldn't be sure, so the Jinyi Guard of the royal capital only sent this person to investigate, right?"
Yan Feibai's heart suddenly moved, "You said they shouldn't have some other secret mission, right? Maybe it's just a coincidence?"
Ding Yi was slightly stunned, thought carefully for a long time, and felt that this possibility was not impossible.
He also had a ghost in his heart, so he was so frightened that he directly connected with that thing.
"Perhaps, but not unguarded!
After all, that's the great sin of the Nine Clans!"
Yan Feibai slapped his face in disappointment, and then slammed the table again.
"When I first found out, I said that I would report it directly to the imperial court!
In this way, the reward of the court cannot be bad!
It's good now, not only is it scared, but this butcher's knife is already on the neck!
Also, after digging for nearly a month, I have only just dug up the outer stone wall and got less than two baskets of things.
It's unknown how many of these things there are in that place, and it's not worth the risk we take!"
Ding Yi closed his eyes slightly, and a killing machine flashed in the depths.
"Yan Wanhu, there is never room for regret in this world!
Now that it's been done, it's the only way to go. If not, I don't know how to die!
Besides, even if it's just a micro mine, it's enough for you and me to rise quickly!
If it's bigger, it's not impossible to do something that you didn't dare to think of before!
If you are willing to give up, you will have to give to you!
A great opportunity is right in front of us, how can we not fight?"
Yan Feibai couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, and nodded slowly after being silent for a long time.
"I understand that there is no way back from this matter, so I can only move forward. ”
Ding Yi smiled slightly, and his calm face was also a little soothing.
"In that case, what now?"
Yan Feibai's face turned ruthless, and he raised his palm and slashed down.
"Those who dare to stand in the way of this road have only one word, kill!
Since they have broken in, no matter where they came from, they can only save their lives!"
Ding Yi couldn't help but be more satisfied, but he didn't nod in agreement, but shook his head.
"Don't be too impulsive.
Killing them is simple, but it is bound to attract the attention of the royal capital, and the situation will inevitably be more complicated at that time.
If the other party really has another task, it will be more than worth the loss.
So, I mean, quietly stare at them first.
If they have not come near there and have not found anything, then let them go.
If you go straight there, you can only be strangled by thunder!"
Yan Feibai thought for a while, and felt reasonable, so he immediately nodded and agreed, but said with some hesitation:
"Except for my elderly grandfather, there are no other Ning Dan Realm masters in my clan;
And the trial Wanhu under my command has never been very close to me, but there is no suitable candidate to lead the team.
I'm afraid I'm going to have to be led by your people this time. ”
Ding Yi couldn't help but sneer when he heard this, and shook his head.
"How can such a great thing be so despised so much?
If the other party really came straight to that thing, it can't be said that there is a master hidden in it!
Therefore, this time you and I must personally go out to ensure everything!
In addition, no one in the brocade clothes can be brought, they must all be loyal dead soldiers of the family!
Otherwise, once the rumors leak out, the crime of slaughtering Jinyiwei is enough to make you and me beheaded!"
Yan Feibai's expression froze, and he hugged his fists in embarrassment.
"It's still Brother Ding's thoughtfulness!"
"In this case, then let's prepare, two quarters of an hour later, the 'ghost village' in the south of the city will gather and go out of the city from the secret passage!"
"Good!"
