The night crept in and went, the morning sun shone everywhere, through the window, like a patient lying on a hospital bed, his arm seemed to be crippled, and it was even more difficult to get up motionless in bed. At this time, Long Xiyue suddenly entered Ling Yichen's room, "It's still early, it's only Mao Shi, why don't you take a break?"

"It doesn't hurt you to get up early, help me up first! Helped Ling Yichen up and walked out of the room, just as Momo and Lu Xiu were at the door, "Lu Xiu, Momo, it's just in time, there is an important matter that needs to be asked of you, because you are the royal family of the demon clan, so you will hand this scroll to Tang Taizong!" After handing them the scroll, he repeatedly told them, "It's very important, but you must not open it, I trust you very much!"

"What's inside this scroll?" curiosity prompted Momo to open the scroll, but there was a seal on it that she couldn't open. "There's a seal on it, don't even think about opening it! ”

Halfway through, Ling Yichen brought up a topic: "Yue'er, I think you know about the recent murder, right!?"

"There are already three dead, can I not know?! This person who has already made Chang'an City panic, they are all afraid that the next one will be themselves. ”

"What, you're scared?"

"How is that possible!"

In the Lonely Soul Forest, Long Xiyue looked at Ling Yichen, and a trace of pain seemed to flash in her heart. Ling Yichen's master, Xuanyuan You, is an alchemist, because he has been following Xuanyuan You all the year round, so he knows a lot about medicines, and he can also be regarded as a small alchemist. According to the condition of his own injuries, he naturally knew what medicinal materials he needed, and according to the current situation, he still needed some herbs to treat skin injuries and replenish qi and blood. If he could, he still wanted to see if there were any herbs around him that could delay the onset of his condition, but the medicinal materials that Xuanyuan You gave him were generally very rare and precious medicinal materials, and it was really difficult to find these. Ling Yichen looked around, except for himself and Long Xiyue, there was no one else in the Lonely Soul Forest, "Yue'er, you stay here, I'll leave for a while, it won't be too long, and I'll be back soon." ”

"What are you going to do?"

"I can't say it!" Ling Yichen walked towards the depths of the Lonely Soul Forest, he was not worried about whether there were evil beasts around, the evil beasts were not in the Lonely Soul Forest, the Lonely Soul Forest was the habitat of the spirit beasts, and the spirit beasts and the evil beasts had a boundary, which was also to prevent the two evil spirit beasts from fighting. Most of the spirit beasts are very docile, so there is no need to worry about being attacked like in Xuanwu Lake.

After a long time, Ling Yichen was finally brought back. "If you don't tell me what to do, you can always tell me where you went!?"

"I didn't go far, anyway, I didn't leave this lonely soul forest! I see I've picked almost all this herb, let's go back!"

"Let's go!"

Back in Chang'an City, look at the alley, the alley is almost full of people, surrounded but the water is impassable, "Look at this person, this death is really ugly! What did he do wrong, who is so ruthless and so heavy!? This is already the fourth ......" The noisy and messy voices are all kinds of things. "I'll take a look!" Seeing this, Ling Yichen walked through the crowd, and the scene in front of him couldn't help but make people tremble: sword marks were all over the corpse, but fortunately, the corpse was not in contact with the sun, and it was not noon, so the corpse did not stink so quickly in the shadows.

When the people next to him saw Ling Yichen, they all took a step back, some of them seemed to have a sense of fear on their faces, and they didn't know who shouted: "Ling Yichen, he is the murderer, and the corpse on the ground is what he killed!"

Ling Yichen looked confused. Suddenly, there was a sound of neat and hurried footsteps, which were the officers and soldiers in the city, and the investigators who were also investigating the case. The leader said, "Ling Yichen, we all suspect that you killed the person, so please come with us." ”

Long Xiyue first retorted for Ling Yichen: "Wait, Ling Yichen was with me just now, how could he kill someone?"

"It takes time to kill people, may I ask, did he leave just now?"

When the leader said this, it really attacked Long Xiyue's heart, not long ago, Ling Yichen did leave, and after calculating, the time of leaving coincided with the time of killing, which could better explain Ling Yichen's killing of someone. "This ......"

Ling Yichen put his right hand lightly on Long Xiyue's shoulder and said, "Regardless of whether I have actually killed people or not, I will still go with them, if I get rid of them now, won't it be even more confirmed that I have killed someone? Since I have not killed anyone, what do I have to fear?! Don't stand where you are! Although it is still early, you better go back quickly!"

"Hey, big brother, this is just my business, I hope you don't involve the Lingche Academy and other people in the academy, they have nothing to do with this matter, not at all, I only have such a request, I hope you can agree!"

"Well, I promise you! However, I also have conditions, you can't run away or escape from prison halfway!"

"According to what you said, if I really run away or escape from prison, won't I be even more guilty of my crimes?

"What you said makes a little sense, it seems that you won't run away, let's go!" After walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped, and the corners of his mouth with his face slightly raised for a moment were evil, perhaps because the officers and soldiers were blocking behind him, so not many people saw it, but the soldiers didn't do anything when they saw him like this, as if they knew something.

She stared blankly at his back, perhaps it was Ling Yichen's words that calmed her down. I don't know why, I suddenly looked at the small note on the ground, bent over and picked it up, and there was no content when I opened it, not even a word. After that, a vertical line of words gradually appeared on the note, Long Xiyue seemed to have wide eyes, what could make her like this? It was nothing more than the important news left by Ling Yichen.

The shadow of the dead, like the night.
