The old lord clapped his hands, straightened his clothes, and then reached into his collar and took out a long piece of thin paper.

The old city lord was a little stunned when he saw the two opposite, so he smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm not cautious either." What if there's a clue in there?"

Although the old city lord did not think that this piece of paper had anything to do with it, he still carried it with him and kept it carefully, which shows that his friendship with Lao Suo is really deep.

Liu He and Gan Qi took the paper and read it carefully. Throughout the article, the rhetoric is not gorgeous, but the rhetoric is smooth, not abrupt, giving people a very comfortable feeling, although everything is trivial, but it contains true feelings in the trivialities, and the truth is expressed in the great truth of life, which is really a rare article. It's just that the two of them read this article several times, and as the old city lord said, they didn't find any useful clues.

"Is there really no clue? We first walked around the academy today, and then the nearby villages were full of questions, and finally came here, are we really going to go back empty-handed?" Gan Qi felt a little depressed.

It's just that Liu He was suddenly excited, and said loudly: "What did you just say, I seem to have found something unreasonable." ”

"I just said...."Before Gan Qi could repeat what he had just said, Liu He had already pointed to the last paragraph of the paper and said: "I know, you look at the last paragraph, 'Dongze Township, the number of five or five, there is a child, talented, light and smart, I would like to accept it as a disciple, but he is still young, and is the only seedling in the family, it is really difficult to say, so he gave a few pieces of cotton cloth in advance, which can be used as winter clothes to keep out the cold, which is profound, and I hope to cherish it." ’

Although this sentence is still idle talk, and ending with this bland is the established routine of the teacher, "hope to cherish" has two meanings, one is to express their own value, and the other is to hope that the other party's family can cherish the friendship between the two parties, but there is a little strangeness in it, that is, why do you want to send winter clothes at this time when it is not summer, although the friendship is deep, but it is too early, if you patiently infer from this sentence, you can detect that there are many metaphors.

For example, if we understand that there is something hidden in the cotton clothes, I hope we can pay attention to it, it is okay. ”

Hearing this, the two of them looked carefully at the sentences on the paper again, and their faces were suddenly expressions.

Gan Qi said: "It can indeed be understood in this way, so the previous 'Dongze Township, the number of five or five' told us the location where the clues are hidden." There are brands between the households in Dachu Village, and fifty-five must be the family's brand in Dongze Township!"

"If we have a clue, we might as well go and look for it overnight. Liu He and Gan Qi were both in a hurry, but the old city lord stopped the two who were about to go out.

The old city lord persuaded: "If you go out in such a hurry, if there are still fine works around, will you not be able to see all of them, and if someone follows you, and the evidence hidden in the shadows will be shown in the light, and the two of you are weak, I am afraid that there will be a mistake." ”

Liu He and Gan Qi thought for a moment, and then calmed down a little, they were also too excited to find the clue, and now that they think about it carefully, they also know the severity.

"You stay with me for one night tonight, and now we will continue to chat, and then go around the courtyard for a while, so as to pretend that you don't know, and when you go back tomorrow, you will go to the people who investigate the case in the Tingwei's Mansion, and then we will look for evidence together, so that nothing goes wrong." ”

Liu He and Gan Qi both nodded, agreeing with the old man's advice.

Zhao Kai's side, he was escorted into the barracks stationed outside the academy that afternoon, and the obscene Han Xing did not leave, but instead smiled wickedly, and followed closely behind the armor, it seemed that he was going to interrogate him for a while.

In a dim and cramped battalion commander, there was only a little candle flame slowly flickering, and the big tent was tied tightly everywhere, and even the fresh air was difficult to float in, Zhao Kai was escorted to this place, and when the armor soldier tied his hands and feet with iron bars on a chair, Zhao Kai also understood that today's news would not be a smooth process, and it was destined to be vigorous.

It's just that what Zhao Kai didn't expect was that the armor soldier finally withdrew, and only a short Han Xing was left in the entire tent, and the other party's smile never stopped, and he said shyly: "Come, you try to make me crazy again, see if I don't smoke you to death." ”

I saw Han Xing in the darkness as if he was familiar with the road, casually touched, there was a thick whip in his hand, through the flickering candle flame, Zhao Kai could see that there were faint traces of blood that had already dried up on it, this Han Xing was obviously not the first time to do this kind of thing, with this person's character, could it be that someone who offended him came to him, so he found an opportunity to bring the other party here for a while of whipping according to a crime?

Zhao Kai couldn't sit still, not afraid, but angry, he didn't expect this Han Xing in front of him to be so frustrated, it was not that his conscience was eaten by dogs.

It's just that Zhao Kai considered that he couldn't expose himself, so he suppressed the urge to use his supernatural powers to destroy the chains of his hands and feet, and then directly beat the other party, just staring at Han Xing with his eyes, just like a bony steel knife without boning to make people remember this ruthlessness.

There was a snap, it was very loud, and the whip had already been pulled down heavily, but Zhao Kai didn't cry out in pain, not that he was forbearing, but that the other party couldn't hurt himself at all, you must know that Han Xing was an ordinary person, and the strength hidden by that short figure was not great, Zhao Kai had to stretch the spiritual power in his body a little, and he could easily resist the whip of the other party, and he would not leave half a scar, just like a protective film without substance, which could directly bounce off the opponent's attack when the opponent came into contact, and it would also cause a lot of countershock.

It's just that the stupid Han Xing didn't notice this abnormality, the candle flame in the tent flickered and dimmed, and it was far away from Zhao Kai's side, so he couldn't see the situation on Zhao Kai's side at all, but he was shocked back again and again by the anti-shock force, but he still thought that it was because he made too much strength, and he even shouted in his mouth, which seemed to be a pure vent.

It's just that no matter how stupid he fights for a long time, he can also detect the abnormality, because Han Xing is a little tired, and Zhao Kai, who was sitting opposite, still didn't make any sound, he finally thought of stepping forward to investigate, and when he got closer, he exclaimed, looking at Zhao Kai's body without the slightest scar, not even the clothes were damaged, and he was stunned for a moment.

He continued to whip a few times as if he didn't believe in evil, but the closer he got to it, the greater the shock force, this person was also a stubborn character, and tried a few more times, rubbed his eyes and said, "Hell." After speaking, he looked around, probably to see if there were any ghosts around.

Zhao Kai sneered in his heart, this person's IQ is also okay, and he didn't realize the fact that he was a cultivator until now, he was really a stupid person with five senses occluded, he knew that he had pretended to be rescued by a ghost just now, and directly shook the shackles with his spiritual power, and then ran wildly.

Zhao Kai just thought about it, after all, if he really ran away, a lot of things would be troublesome, and he still wanted to watch Han Xing continue to perform, but soon Zhao Kai found that he was wrong, because Han Xing ran out, and out of nowhere, two more armorers were called, and the two of them were carrying a stove, and a scarlet soldering iron was sneering on top of the stove.

The whipping is useless because he skillfully used his spiritual power to counteract the other party's strength, but if this soldering iron really falls on him, it is estimated that his body will be branded with shame in the future.

There are no variables outside, so you can only break the situation by yourself, of course Zhao Kai will not watch a soldering iron fall on him, so he can either show the Tingwei Mansion token now to deter the other party, or be more pure, and use his magic power to leave here directly.

The scarlet soldering iron kept approaching, and Han Xing was also taking the arrogant steps of the six relatives who did not recognize him, taking two steps and one step at a time, approaching quickly, and he couldn't wait.

Zhao Kai is also thinking about which method to choose to get out, anyway, he has the strength in his body, and he is not in a hurry at all, if he doesn't make a choice in the end, it is okay to break out directly at the moment when the soldering iron is close to his body.

It's just that there was a sudden noisy sound outside the tent, and the sound of the long knife coming out of its sheath was endless, and then someone said loudly: "I am He Wushuang, the commander of the Tingwei Mansion in Lingping City, and I came here to arrest Han Xing and inquire, and I have disturbed everything on official business." ”

This voice is extremely penetrating, and the entire military camp has spread a message, this is the benefit of having spiritual power blessings, Zhao Kai knows that this He Wushuang is also a young genius in cultivation, and he has even seen the other party, but whether the other party has seen him or not, it is unknown.

Han Xing in the tent suddenly stiffened when he heard this, and the soldering iron in his hand was thrown on the ground, as if he had lost his sense of proportion and lost his soul, and then Zhao Kai heard that Han Xing in front of him seemed to suddenly return to his soul, and he shouted: "Stop this person, he must be a fake, my Longyao Academy is the first academy in Longyao Prefecture, and the imperial court sends the dean to sit in charge, where is the turn to get the Du Tingwei of Lingping City to meddle in things." ”

When the soldiers near the tent heard this, they all clenched their knives, and it seemed that they were loyal to the dean's faction.

Just before those armorers could come to their senses, there seemed to be a gust of wind around them, and a golden figure had already swept past the group of armorers with knives, and directly opened the tent and came to the tent.

"You, how did you get in?"

"As I said, everything is done in business and bothered. As soon as he finished speaking, the golden figure came directly to Han Xing, grabbed an arm in each hand, and stood Han Xing up, and then disappeared like a gust of wind.

Zhao Kai broke the shackles by himself, stood up, soothed his hands and feet a few times, and then prepared to go out, he was not surprised by the scene just now, it should be so simple to deal with an ordinary person with the cultivation of the golden body realm, of course, that He Wushuang is not necessarily just a golden body realm, Zhao Kai's own spiritual power is low, and he can't sense it clearly, but when the other party left, he seemed to take a look at his side, and his eyes were quite sharp, but there was no hostility, nor appreciation, if he wanted to say what it meant, it could only be curious.
