Three minutes later, Li Xuan walked to the front of the steps helplessly, and Jiang Hanyun squinted at him from the side: "What are you lacking in? There are so many seniors, and no one laughs at you when you are defeated. ”

"The Captain is right. Ma Chenggong solemnly clasped his hands in front of his chest, trying to hide his intention to announce his personal vendetta: "I apologize that you have done so many shameless things, and you are still afraid that this little beast will expose your shortcomings?

His logic is that for a person who is already corrupt in his private morality and doesn't care about face, listening to the mastiff's privacy attack is naturally not worth it.

The corners of Li Xuan's lips twitched, but then he still stiffened his head and stood up the first step.

He had already thought that as soon as this 'listening mastiff' mentioned that he was a traverser, he would immediately retreat.

Looking at the character of this spirit beast, it doesn't seem to be very excessive, and it shouldn't be unrelenting and holding him.

After standing still, Li Xuan closed his eyes tightly, waiting to listen to the judgment of the heavenly mastiff.

But to his surprise, for the next ten full breaths, he didn't hear the mastiff speak. Li Xuan opened his right eye and peeked ahead, but saw that the 'listening mastiff' was not saying a word, looking at him with complicated eyes.

After waiting for another twenty breaths, the 'Listening Mastiff' still didn't speak, Li Xuan pondered for a while, and then asked tentatively: "Brother Mastiff, if you don't want to speak, then I will pass this level?"

Then he was brave enough to step on the second level.

The Listening Mastiff was still watching him, without any additional reaction.

At this time, not only Li Xuan, but also the people below were also confused.

I was wondering what was going on? It didn't make sense that this mastiff would treat Li Xuan differently, and it was impossible for this prodigal who was famous in Nanjing City to be without a little black material.

The smile on Ma Chenggong's face was gradually stiffening.

This is different from what he imagined, but he was looking forward to this subordinate who caused himself to be beaten by his wife, and also experienced a public execution in public.

The so-called solitary happiness is not as good as the joy of all, how can this experience of social death be enjoyed by oneself alone?

"Brother Mastiff?" Li Xuan stepped on the third level with trepidation, and maintained a posture that he could jump down at any time: "It's because you refuse to speak, it's not that I have to take an inch." Brother Mastiff, you are a well-informed person, if you can't stand it, you can squeak, please be merciful. ”

The heavenly mastiff on the steps was like a clay carved wood sculpture, even if Li Xuan stepped on the fourth level later, he still turned a blind eye to his behavior.

Li Xuan's heart was weak for a while, he was worried that this person was holding back his big move, and when he stepped on the fifth level, he would kill him in one move.

It was also at this time that Li Xuan found that the eyes of the heavenly mastiff were not only stunned and surprised, but also a trace of jealousy and awe.

Wrong!

After Li Xuan carefully identified it, he realized that the Heavenly Mastiff was not looking at him, but about a foot behind him.

When Li Xuan turned around, he saw that the female ghost in red who was following behind him was also staring at the Heavenly Mastiff with her bloody eyes without pupils.

Li Xuan felt that in terms of demeanor and angle, this was more like a one-sided overcrowding and looking down.

After another minute, the listening mastiff retracted his gaze, then wagged his tail, and his body floated into the air: "Count me as losing, this is the end of this matter." However, my lord said that if you dare to destroy his incense temple, it will not be so easy to end it. ”

Ma Chenggong was stunned for a while, and then shouted slightly unwillingly: "You just left? He admitted defeat without even saying a word? This is unfair, how did you lose, you have to give us an explanation." ”

Listening to the mastiff, he lowered his head and glanced at Ma Chenggong, and then said with a joke in his eyes: "This person is a rare upright gentleman, who seems to be absurd and unruly, and he is dissolute. In fact, hold the body with integrity, uphold the heart with justice, stop in action, and have rules in words. This seat searched his past and listened to his voice, but he felt invulnerable, so he retreated. ”

Then it disappeared between heaven and earth as the words fell.

Ma Chenggong was a little stunned, and then looked at Li Xuan with an unbelievable gaze: "Righteous gentleman Li apologizes?"

He thought to himself that it was not right, why did he also drink flower wine, why is this guy a righteous gentleman?

At this moment, not only Ma Chenggong, but also Peng Fulai and Zhang Yue in the distance are also looking at each other. I'm thinking that guy is a righteous man, so it's not too much for us to say that we are as guarded as jade, right?

Li Xuan blushed slightly, and waved his hand a little embarrassed: "I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed!" I have been hiding for so long, but I still discovered the essence of this mastiff brother. I dare not be ashamed, I dare not be ashamed!"

He was overjoyed in his heart, not to mention the great success of today, and the opportunity to enter the seventh floor of the library building, which was what many people dreamed of.

As for the reward of the money, it was the least important to him.

But at the same time, he was also wondering about the scene where the mastiff and the female ghost in red looked at each other.

Li Xuan thought to himself, why was the Heavenly Mastiff afraid? There must be a reason.

But then he suppressed his thoughts and hugged his fists in all directions: "Brothers and sisters, the younger brother will book two hundred tables of the best flowing water seats in the Hongding Restaurant opposite today, if you are free and want to eat, just go over and report the name of the younger brother!"

※※※※

When everyone dispersed, Li Xuan walked to the side of the gate of the Vermilion Bird Hall and found Jiang Hanyun, who was still hating himself and looking at the direction of the mastiff's departure.

"Lord Captain, this is too much. ”

Jiang Hanyun finally turned around and looked at Li Xuan with complicated eyes. She also seemed to be a little unwilling, surprised that Li Xuan had not experienced the result of public execution, and at the same time had some residual shame and anger.

However, after a few breaths, Jiang Hanyun returned to normal: "I'm very motivated! I came to work on the first day after waking up, and I practiced two more rounds today." ”

Li Xuan was surprised and said, "How do you know, my lord?"

He was thinking about this woman, could it be that someone was also sent to follow him?

"It's little Lei Lei. ”

Jiang Hanyun shook his sleeves and let the three-tailed spirit fox come out of his sleeve: "Although its bloodline is not as pure as that heavenly mastiff, it is also a descendant of the divine beast after Bai Ze, I will let it stare at you." ”

Li Xuan was disappointed, but he deliberately let go of his body just now, trying to expose the female ghost in red behind him to Jiang Hanyun's field of vision.

But whether it is Jiang Hanyun or her spirit animal, they are still unaware of the existence of female ghosts.

He thought about the so-called Bai Ze bloodline, and it was estimated that it was very watery. The real Bai Ze is through the feelings of all things, knows the appearance of all things in the world, can pass through, know the future, and the supernatural power is still above the truth.

Look at this spirit fox, he can't even speak.

Then Li Xuan saw the three-tailed spirit fox on the opposite side baring his teeth at him, this little thing couldn't see the female ghost in red, but he saw Li Xuan's contempt for it.

"I originally wanted to give you two days off, but Xiao Lei Lei said that you have recovered from your injuries and are no longer in serious trouble. As it happens, I'm short of people right now. ”

I don't know what the three-tailed spirit fox said to the master, Jiang Hanyun pressed the knife on his waist and looked at Li Xuan: "I'll wait for you to have half a cup of tea, go and bring all the things you should bring, we have to go to the outskirts of Nancheng." ”

"On the outskirts of Nancheng, there is a case? It's not our jurisdiction, is it?"

Li Xuan was actually reluctant, the purpose of his coming to the Six Dao Divisions was to understand the progress of the pursuit of the two Daoists, not to investigate the case on duty.

"Didn't you say that there was a lack of people?" Jiang Hanyun glared at him: "It's not a big case, someone was bitten to death by a wild wolf near the General Mountain in the suburbs, because there was a demonic residue at the scene, so there was a rune book from Jiangning County, let us send someone to take a look." ”

Li Xuan had no choice but to hurriedly run into the Hongding Restaurant not far away, put down some deposits, and then rushed back to the Yamen of the Vermilion Bird Hall to pack up his belongings.

Fortunately, Li Xuan was already wearing the standard equipment of the Six Dao Divisions. And all the tools needed by an apprentice spirit were also concentrated in an iron suitcase—in fact, this suitcase had never been opened since it was issued to Li Xuan.

Li Xuan's original intention and his father's Chengyi Bo were only to use the spirit as a springboard to enter the Six Dao Division, and then become a 'wrestler' who didn't need to use his brains, and he didn't plan to mix in this post-mortem business for a long time.

This time, the two of them did not ride horses, but each pulled out a large lizard that was stronger than a rhinoceros from the stable outside the Suzaku Hall, and then rode away like thunder.

According to the memories of the predecessors, those so-called dragon foals actually only have a little bit of dragon blood. However, these beasts that resemble the shape of the 'lizard' are real dragon species, named 'Earth Walking Dragon', which was originally a cross between 'Pan Dragon' and 'Dragon Crocodile'.

Li Xuan's driving experience is very good, the speed of the Earth Walking Dragon is not only extremely fast, it can reach a speed of more than 160 yards per hour at its peak, and it is also very stable.

In just over a moment, they had already arrived at the General's Mountain, which was dozens of kilometers away from the Suzaku Hall.

The scene of the crime was in a bush at the northern foot of Jiangjun Mountain, and in addition to several officials of Jiangning County, the person in charge of the case turned out to be the classic history of Jiangning County.

The canon is the miscellaneous official of the county order, responsible for the arrest and prison, and the name of the canon in Jiangning County is Liu.

"We see the Captain!"

After Liu Dianshi saluted, he led them in the direction of the corpse: "Our work has been experienced, the deceased is forty-two years old, and his identity is a wealthy merchant in Nanjing, and his family is rich. The time of death was about two to three hours, and the cause of death was a wolf pack and was bitten to death by a pack of wolves. ”

Jiang Hanyun was very strange: "A rich businessman with a lot of money, what are you doing in this kind of place? Two or three hours, it should be the middle of the night last year?"

"I inquired with the mountain people who lived nearby, and they identified the deceased as a medicinal herb merchant named Shi Laogen, who had entered the mountain to discuss the medicinal herb business with them. ”

Liu Dianshi replied: "There is a mountain temple not far away, we found a fire over there, as well as his luggage, it is worth mentioning that the broken silver in the luggage is not lost." It was guessed that this person should have missed the time, so he stayed overnight in a small temple, but unfortunately encountered wolves. ”

"Didn't he bring his retinue and martial artists?" Jiang Hanyun was stunned when she said this, just because she and Li Xuan had already seen the corpse.
