Hearing the holy decree, Song Ci's face changed greatly, his fist slammed in his hand, and he stomped his feet and said: "Hey! I'm really worried about what's coming, Brother Alai, you must help me! I'll go and get the decree first, and I'll tell you more when I come back." ”

Song Ci straightened his clothes and hurriedly ran towards the courtyard.

"Oh, Father-in-law, what's the big deal? and bother you to come to announce the decree in person?" Song Ci smiled all over his face, asked worriedly in his heart, and knelt on the ground respectfully.

Gonggong Xi's face was expressionless, he did not answer, slowly unfolded the holy decree, and preached loudly: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor said, Xuanting Wei Si Song Ci immediately entered the palace to face the saint." ”

"Face saint?" Song Ci was beating a drum in his heart, raised his head above his head, received the holy decree, and kowtowed: "Weichen receives the decree!"

"Lord Song, let's go! Don't let Your Majesty wait for a long time!" urged.

Song Ciqiang replied with a smile: "Father-in-law, please take the first step, I am dressing, so I will follow." ”

"Okay, let's go back first, you hold on. ”

"Yes, yes, definitely, definitely. ”

Sending his father-in-law away, Song Ci trotted back to the hall and shouted: "Brother Alai, help! Brother Alai, help!"

Ah Lai looked at Song Ci who returned in a panic in confusion.

As soon as Song Ci grabbed Ah Lai's arm, he dragged it out, and said as he dragged it: "Brother Ah Lai, I don't have time to tell you in detail, you must help me this time and accompany me into the palace to face the saint." ”

No matter how hard Song Ci dragged him, his face turned red, and Ah Lai's feet still didn't move in place, "Lord Song, don't panic, I don't know anything, which saint will accompany you to face?"

For the emperor of the Xi Kingdom, Ah Lai had no good impression at all, and at this moment Song Ci dragged him to face the saint, Ah Lai was a hundred unwilling in his heart, so he said.

Song Ci temporarily let go of the hand that was dragged by the force, and said very quickly: "Hey! It's not that the matter of tracking down the 'magic smoke' is not a trouble, Your Majesty has sent me to investigate this matter for a long time, but to this day there is still no eyebrows, now Your Majesty is afraid that he will be held accountable, and if I am light, my black yarn hat will not be guaranteed, and if I am heavy, I may lose this little life, hey!"

"Devil smoke, what is devil smoke, is that what worries you?" Ah Lai listened even more confused.

This magic smoke is called 'Smoke of Freedom and Heaven' by the common people, and it is an extremely harmful thing, and it is addictive. Once you get this thing, you don't think about it, you don't do your job, and it won't take long for you to be skinny, and finally your blood will dry up and die. Since this magic smoke first suddenly emerged from the northwest border, like a fire in the prairie fire, smokers flocked to it, and now it has spread all over the country, and recently the smoke hall has opened to the imperial city. Brother Alai, don't you know, once you get infected with that thing, you will become not like a person, a ghost is not like a ghost, selling wives and daughters, bullying the old and destroying relatives, abducting and deceiving, raping and plundering, it is simply all evil! Hey, now the whole country is in chaos, and even the slightest clue can not be found, I have closed the tobacco hall one stubble after another, and I have caught wave after wave of those who opened the tobacco house, but there are still smokers who risk their lives to open it, and I am almost sad to death!" Song Ci was so anxious that his words were like a torrent.

"Wait!Lord Song, you have arrested so many people who opened tobacco houses, haven't you found out the source?" Ah Lai was extremely puzzled, but now Ah Lai understood why there were so many families in this Yuyuan City, and every household hung white flags.

"Yes, this thing is strange here, all the people who open the smoke hall don't know where the magic smoke comes from, in short, as long as anyone hangs the signboard of the smoke house, there will be magic smoke coming out of the warehouse in the hall, and it will automatically come out again when it is not sold, just like the spring water, gushing endlessly, do you say that the evil door is not the evil door? Where do I go to trace the source?" When he said this, Song Ci felt aggrieved in his heart.

"Oh, how could there be such a strange thing? Then Lord Song, do you have that magic smoke here?" This thing is really interesting, and it is as if harmful things are put into the sky and falls, and Alaiden is interested.

"Yes, yes!" Song Ci hurriedly ran to the back of the public case, and took out a black plaster-like thing from the drawer, which looked like dried from a distance.

Ah Lai took the magic smoke from Song Ci's hand, and began to study it carefully, far away from his nose, a strong and pungent fragrance came out, Ah Lai smelled it in his nose, and felt so familiar, "This is the aroma of the Eight Treasures Sedum mixed with Bing Manxuetuo? No, although it is extremely light, it is also mixed with a trace of other fragrances, yes, it is very similar to the aroma on the snow peak that I inadvertently passed by yesterday night." ”

Holding the magic smoke, Ah Lai fell into deep thought, Song Ci saw this, and pulled Ah Lai's arm anxiously again, "Brother Ah Lai, I really don't have time to study it slowly, this has been a long time, Your Majesty must have been waiting for a long time, if you don't set off again, I'm afraid I will die if I don't die this time, Brother Ah Lai, come with me to face the saint!"

Seeing that Song Ci was really anxious, besides, such a scourge thing, Ah Lai felt that he had to take care of it, those skinny people before, Ah Lai now understood, he was wrong to blame the emperor of the Xi Kingdom, so Ah Lai smiled slightly and said: "Lord Song, don't worry, whoever dies you can't die, go, I'll go with you." ”

Grabbing Song Ci's arm with his backhand, the indigo blood cloud pattern thunder wings behind Ah Lai spread, and in Song Ci's lifeless exclamation, Ah Lai dragged Song Ci into the air.

If you want to say that the best place to find in the city is the palace hall, because which is the highest, there is no doubt.

Controlling the speed that Song Ci could adapt, Ah Lai slowly flew towards the palace, but even at such a slow speed, Song Ci's face turned pale with fright, and even his eyes were closed.

It wasn't until he stood still in front of Chaoyan Hall and landed on the ground that Song Ci dared to open his eyes, but as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw the silver shining spear tip in front of him.

"Who is so bold, so daring to trespass into the Chaoyan Palace?" As soon as Ah Lai and Song Ci landed, they were surrounded by the guards guarding the palace.

"Eh, eh, brothers, you can be a snack, don't hurt by mistake! I'm Song Ci, the Imperial Commander, and I'm here to face the saint. ”

At this time, Gonggong Xi and other people who carried the decree came from the square in front of the distant palace.

"Lord Song, this is the first time we have seen this holy way of facing you, falling from the sky? This can be scared to death by you!" The palace guard saw that it was Song Ci, put away the silver spears one after another, and opened his mouth to complain.

"Hehehe, it's urgent, it's urgent, brothers, forgive me!" Song Ci apologized.

"Huh, Lord Song, you ran quite fast, did you go to our house, who is he?"

"Oh, Father-in-law, this is what the lower officials brought to face with me. Song Ci hurriedly explained.

"Together, no, you go with me to face the saint first, as for him, let's listen to the announcement later, depending on the situation!" Father-in-law Xi stepped past Song Ci and walked straight to the hall.

"I'm really sorry for this ......! Brother Alai, then please wait here for a while, let me show your majesty, and then summon you into the temple. Song Ci said a humble word to Ah Lai, and hurriedly followed the footsteps of Gonggong Xi into the hall.

Hurriedly ran into the hall, Song Ci fell down and knelt on the ground, "Weichen Song Ci came to meet him by order." ”

"Calm down!" Emperor Yingtian's cold voice reached his ears.

Song Ci hurriedly got up, sure enough, Emperor Yingtian's face was iron-blue, Song Ci's heart was terrible, His Majesty really wanted to be held accountable, what made Song Ci feel strange was that there was a young man in the palace today, that person was dressed in a white shirt, with long silver hair hanging neatly on his back, clear eyebrows, white face, and his own dusty demeanor, and what shocked Song Ci even more was that the young man was sitting on the right head very casually at the moment.

"On the top of the Chaoyan Palace, he is actually sitting?" "As an official for half a lifetime, this is the first time he has seen it, Song Ci really can't think of what this young man is from?"

"Song Ci, what progress has occurred in the matter of the demon smoke that I ordered you to investigate?" Emperor Yingtian's cold voice continued to sound, and anyone could hear the extremely suppressed anger in his tone.

Song Ci's heart suddenly suddenly, and he hurriedly knelt on the ground again, and said in fear: "Your Majesty, Weichen has been entrusted by His Majesty, and Weichen deserves to die for his crimes, and there is still no progress." ”

As soon as the words came out, he heard a loud "poof" on the dragon chair, and Song Ci's heart trembled.

"Song Ci, you have disappointed me so much, don't you claim to be an unsolvable case in the world? Doesn't everyone in the world respect you as a detective? Why has it been so long since this demon smoke case arrived, and you haven't made the slightest progress? If this continues, this country will be destroyed!" Emperor Ying Tian was furious and stood up from the dragon chair.

"Your Majesty is angry, Your Majesty is angry! The crimes of the micro-ministers deserve death, and the crimes of the micro-ministers deserve ten thousand deaths. But Your Majesty, Wei Chen is incompetent, but Wei Chen is one person, I believe that he will be able to solve this demon smoke case!" Song Ci's heart and liver were about to jump out, and he hurriedly replied.

"Wait for you to protect it, I'm afraid that this Xi Kingdom will already be dead, but I have already asked for the help of the Lord of the Ice Palace in this matter. The person in front of you is the personal disciple of the Lord of the Ice Palace, the Holy Son of the Ice Palace, Xue Mobai, Song Ci, you will tell the Snow Saint Son the details of the Demon Smoke case, and in the future, you will obey the Xue Saint Son's dispatch and strive to eliminate the Demon Smoke case as soon as possible!

"But...... Your Majesty", Song Ci was halfway out of his words, and then paused abruptly, as he felt the angry gaze from the young man.

"But, you still have a face, but what is it?" said Emperor Yingtian was furious again.

Song Ci settled down, his expression changed for a while, and finally his heart turned sideways, and continued: "Your Majesty, even if Weichen no longer needs to ensure that this person thoroughly investigates the Demon Smoke case, but according to the good example of meritorious deeds and rewards in our dynasty, Weichen still needs to ask Your Majesty for credit for this person!"

"Oh, please merit, what merit?" At present, the entire Xi Kingdom is in danger, and Emperor Yingtian really can't think of what Song Ci said about the merit.

"Your Majesty, a few days ago, in my imperial city, thirteen yellow flower girls were tragically defiled and killed by the villains overnight, and everyone was panicked. Your Majesty, who is that villain in your Dao? That vicious is the giant murderer of the Demon Realm, known as the ninth demon in the Demon Realm Killing Honor List, and his name is Innocent. After the demon was killed, the people in the imperial city all clapped their hands and applauded, and called Your Majesty Shengming, Your Majesty, such a person who has meritorious service to the country, shouldn't he be rewarded for meritorious deeds?"

"Oh, in the Imperial City, this kind of thing can happen? As a matter of course, it is a great achievement, but now that the matter of the magic smoke is imminent, how can I be in the mood to talk about what merit and what reward to do?" Ying Tian was really worried about the matter of the demon smoke, and how could he have time to pay attention to other things, so he said.

"Your Majesty, since Lord Song admires this person so much, presumably this person must have something extraordinary, besides, it is really boring to investigate the case alone, if someone comes to fight, it is also extremely fun, it is better for Your Majesty to rely on Lord Song's protection, and allow this person to investigate the case together, and then see if this Holy Son will close the case first, or will Lord Song be more capable?"

"This ...... Since the Son speaks, I will follow what the Son says. Song Ci, where is that person now?" Emperor Yingtian, whose voice was cold, was obviously much softer when he spoke to Xue Mobai, and even the words asked Song Ci later were a lot warmer.

"Your Majesty, this person's name is Ah Lai, he is a Dongzhou Immortal Dao cultivator, and he is waiting outside the hall at the moment. Song Ci was overjoyed in his heart, but he still didn't dare to show a trace on his face, and replied respectfully.

Emperor Yingtian glanced at the Duke of Xi, and the Duke of Xi understood and preached loudly: "Xuandong Prefecture Ah Lai enters the hall." ”

Hearing the announcement from the hall, Ah Lai walked towards the hall unhurriedly, his eyes looked around the hall, and soon his eyes focused on Xue Mobai's body.

When Ah Lai looked at Xue Mobai again, Xue Mobai also stared at Ah Lai.

"At a young age, he is already infinitely close to the cultivation of the Earth Immortal, this person is so talented!" Ah Lai praised in his heart.

"This Lord Song really doesn't have much knowledge, but he can be a second-order cultivator, so he makes such a fuss. Xue Mobai's eyes retracted, and he continued to sit in the chair lazily and casually, never looking at Ah Lai again.

Ah Lai walked to Song Ci's side step by step and stood still, clasped his fists and saluted: "Ah Lai has seen Your Majesty!"

"Bold! When you see Your Majesty, you dare not kneel?" shouted Father-in-law Xi.

Ah Lai smiled slightly, pointed at the snow white, and replied: "He can sit, why should I kneel?"
