took a hot shower, changed into the clean shirts prepared in the inn, and the two met in Lu Jing's room.

The sound of wind and rain outside the window is endless, and the occasional car horn can be heard, and on the table inside the window, three meat and two vegetables plus an egg drop vermicelli soup have been placed.

Lu Jing, who had a towel around his neck, stepped on the clogs and sat down at the table.

Wow~woo~

Liuli, who had just slept all the way, wandered around the room, patrolling his new "territory", and from time to time he had to jump on Lu Jing's legs and call twice, and wait for him to tear two pieces of meat and feed them into his mouth before he would leave.

Lu Jing poured a warm glass of wine for Xu Xu, who was flipping through the map of Qihuang Island city that he had just paid for the shopkeeper to find by the light, and the strange puppet was placed next to it along with the book "Qihuang Island Scenery" that Xu Chu had purchased in the past.

The value of an item that can be so carefully guarded by the Nightmare Pirates is unquestionable, and because of this, if you want to find out what the doll is coming from, and find a random puppet workshop to get the answer, it is as nonsense as driving a Maserati into a roadside stall to find someone to see the driving system.

"Just now while they were serving, I chatted with the older old man at the front desk for a while, and heard him say that there were two representative families in puppet making on Qihuang Island in the past, one is the Shangguan family who now controls the largest puppet maker workshop in Qihuang Island, their business seems to be doing a lot in recent years, and now there are also big families with heads and faces in Qihuang Island, these people are easy to find, and there is a house of Shangguan in the central city, but ......"

Circled a small area on the map, Xu Chu took the pen and dotted it in it, and said with some hesitation.

"It's just that with our identity, it's very difficult to see the local wealthy family, even if we know where they live, I'm afraid we won't even be able to cross the threshold at that time. ”

Lu Jing took over the conversation.

"That's right, on the one hand, those people are not so easy to see, on the other hand, even if we see them, we can't be sure what the situation of this puppet is, in case there is a conflict during the negotiation process, we will be very passive, and then things will only become troublesome. ”

The two of them can be said to know nothing about puppets, and self-defeating is not the result Lu Jing wants.

"What about the other family?"

In his heart, the Shangguan family drew a cross for the time being, and Lu Jing asked instead.

"The Fu family, I heard the man say that this family declined more than ten years ago, and keeping up with the development of the official family is one in the sky and one underground, and now it seems that it is just running a small workshop...... I think this is good, although it may take some time to inquire, but compared to the Shangguan family, it is undoubtedly safer, and the two of us can control the situation if anything. ”

"Then they, tomorrow morning we will go separately, you go to the port first, send the tide to the shipyard for renovation, I will go directly to the nearby puppet shop to inquire about the situation, no matter what the harvest is, we will meet at the Yuelai Inn at noon, and then act together in the afternoon." ”

Raising the wine glass and touching it with Xu Yu, Lu Jing took a sip, opened his mouth to speak, and heard a chaotic footstep outside the door.

At this time, where are so many people?

Knock knock~

There was a quick knock at the door.

"Who!"

Since the other party will still knock on the door, it shouldn't be that he is looking for trouble, Lu Jing's tense body relaxed, but there was still a little vigilance in his eyes.

"Guest officer, we are the team of the Yuelai Inn night patrol, just now there is news outside, and the monster that captives people has appeared, we are here to confirm the safety of the guests...... We knocked on the next room and no one answered, is that friend of yours here?"

"The two of us were having dinner and nothing unexpected happened. ”

Lu Jing put down the knife and said loudly.

"Well, if anything, be sure to ring the bell behind the door, and we'll be the first to come. ”

The night watchman of this inn is loyal, and after confirming that there is no problem, he specially reminded him before leaving.

"The captive monster has made such a big move...... A large island like Qihuang Island, it stands to reason that it should be guarded by the Imperial Court's Silent Night Division, and there are people missing at both ends in three days, and they haven't caught that monster until now, it's too cunning?"

Leaning the shotgun on the edge of the stool, Xu Chu picked up the chopsticks again.

The so-called Garrison Division, in fact, is the land special armed forces of the major kingdoms, after all, the alliance navy operates on the sea most of the time, and occasionally lands on the island to capture pirates, and the daily order naturally has to be maintained by the local authorities themselves, such as this kind of incident of monster kidnapping on the island, the alliance navy will not care, but within the scope of the duties of the Garrison Division.

Bang! Bang!

Xu Xi's voice fell, and suddenly there was a loud gunfire outside the window.

"Ha! I really mean Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived. ”

Listening to the gunshots nearby, the friction between the tires and the ground when the car outside the inn was driving was also loud, and Lu Jing, who had just sat down, got up again and walked to the window, which was more delicious than the wine and food on the table.

"Who is Cao Cao?"

Xu Qi, who was following Lu Jing, was full of this unheard of name.

As soon as he opened the window, Lu Jing saw several cars speeding on the street outside and officers and soldiers leaning out of the window with guns in their hands, and they were constantly shooting at the black shadow running at the other end of the street.

Even through the rain, Lu Jing could still vaguely see that the man was wearing a black cloak, and his figure seemed to be more burly than himself, but his movements were very fast, and he was aimed at more than a dozen guns on the empty street, flashing left and right, but he was not hit...... At least it didn't seem to hit, as he never had a noticeable pause in his movements.

Replaced by Lu Jing, at this time, either the tidal alienation has been started, or he is lying on the ground and becoming "honeycomb coal".

"Look at the rooftops, the people of the Nights!"

Xu Chu's focus was not on the street, but on the roofs of the houses on both sides of the street.

Following his direction, someone had already run to the top of the monster's head, jumped forward, and glided down from a height of nearly ten meters above the ground, and a ray of light in his hand pierced the rain curtain and went straight to the monster.

"Huh~ I'm still a master!"

Xu Chu stared at this scene with wide eyes, and his mouth was amazed.

However, in the next second, he saw the monster running wildly stop, allowing the pursuit behind him and above his head.

"Suffer!"

Watching the monster's movements, as if he had a premonition, Lu Jing slapped the window frame.

Boom!!!

The flames are rising into the sky!
