It was night, seven or eight stars flickered outside the sky, thin clouds were sent by the breeze one after another, covering the moonlight, through the faint clouds under the afterglow of the gold city, all the sounds were silent, occasionally from the alleyway came one or two dog barks and baby cries, and the people in their sleep murmured.

Two ever-bright lanterns were hung in front of the door of the Yanyu Building, and under the light of the floating ground were two guards, although it was late at night, they still did not relax in the slightest.

Bai Yunqing looked around the Yanyu Building for a long time, although the guard at night was much lighter, but there was still a rotation of positions, he observed for about half an hour, and still did not see the guards have the intention of leaving.

It was not until another half hour that a new group of soldiers came from the streets, first in the pavilion at the top of the pavilion, then downward, and finally two groups of soldiers were replaced by the guards at the gate.

At this time, it was the weakest moment of the Yanyu Building! Bai Yunqing was scheming in his heart, in order to find a good breakthrough, he lurked on the roof closest to the Yanyu Building, prostrate, and watched the guards' every move.

Changing guards again, Bai Yunqing's body was as light as a swallow, and he quietly slipped under the eaves of the pavilion, taking advantage of the gap between the soldiers and the soldiers to leave.

As soon as he entered the interior of the pavilion, Bai Yunqing felt a cold and stubborn aura wafting in the building, which made people's hearts twitch and their scalps numb.

In the dark environment, the five fingers were missing, and the white cloud halal qi gathered two fingers, lightly touched his eyes, and crossed from the eyes, the blue light flashed in his eyes, and the scenes in the building were clear one by one.

This floor is the third floor of the Yanyu Building, the decoration in the building is mostly matched with the single room of the Accord, the furnishings are quite ancient, the corner of the hall outside the single room is the staircase, there are several screens in the hall, the glass lamp is suspended in the air, and there are also poems and famous paintings hanging high, if it is the daytime, it must be brilliant, beautiful, quite dizzying.

Walking to the staircase, the cold and cruel aura became clearer and clearer, and when Bai Yunqing closed his eyes and perceived, it faintly came from downstairs.

Quietly jumped down the stairs with doubts, and in an instant he had fallen to the third floor, only to hear the sound of the whirl, Bai Yunqing's legs rose up a storm and a cyclone at the moment of landing, holding him in the air close to the ground.

Breathing and holding his breath freely, he had taken a clear look at the ground floor.

In addition to the main door on the ground floor, there is only a front cabinet, and the back kitchen house, and in the remote place is the wine cellar, the building is simply furnished with only a few tables, chairs, benches, and a few teapots, which should be a kind of tea house.

After thinking for a long time, he was sure that the breath was coming from the ground floor, but there was no clue, and Bai Yunqing couldn't help but feel a little annoyed in his heart for a while.

And just when he was annoyed, there were faint footsteps and human voices at the bottom of the staircase, Bai Yunqing leaned his ears and understood, there was a world under the stairs, I was afraid that it was a secret room, and the sound from inside should be someone entering and exiting from it!

Tan hurriedly jumped up to the second floor, leaned over the ground, condensed his breath, and quietly peeked at the place where the voice came.

But when he heard a creak, a beam of candlelight flickered, and two figures gradually walked out of the ladder, Bai Yunqing stared at the two people in shock, looking puzzled, how could it be the two of them?

The person who came was Tang Yu, the old city lord of Pinjin City, and his red-armored warrior Tang Puwen, and the two discussed softly, as if they were plotting something.

Bai Yunqing wanted to hear the truth, and moved his ears, but the conversation between the two stopped, and they just left quietly.

Suddenly, Tang Puwen shouted at the entrance of the ladder where Bai Yunqing was hiding, "Who?"

Bai Yunqing's heart chuckled, the secret path was not good, and he was about to get up and move, but he heard Tang Yu say, "There are rats?"

Tang Puwen stared at this side and shook his head, explaining, "If you go back to the master, no, it's just good to be careful......

"I'm shocked!

Tang Yu snorted dissatisfiedly, threw his sleeves forward, and walked outside the house.

Tang Puwen bowed his head and said nothing, following closely.

Seeing the two of them coming out of the house, Bai Yunqing was relieved, and he couldn't help but be a little lucky, thinking that he was discovered, he never thought that Tang Puwen was cheating on himself, but fortunately he calmed down and didn't pull out in a hurry.

Although he can come and go freely, he is not afraid of Tang Yu and the others, but there are a lot of guards in the pavilion, if they are noisy, they will inevitably cause trouble, and the two of them are just mortals, and they must not kill them when the matter has not surfaced.

After confirming that the two had already walked away, Bai Yunqing tiptoed to the staircase and lifted the tunnel plywood.

Crunch!

In just an instant, that worrying yin qi wrapped around his body like a maggot from under him, and Bai Yunqing's eyes flashed with a hint of determination, and he suddenly walked inside.

Descending the stairs, it seems like an endless abyss, with no edge, and the further down it goes, the more obvious the breath becomes.

The crossing was not very deep, and as he turned three ladders, he was already at the deepest point!

The surroundings were extremely empty, just a blank room, and nothing else, which not only made Bai Yunqing even more puzzled.

He looked at it carefully for a long time, but he didn't find anything unusual, except for the cold air that emanated from the ground from time to time in this empty room.

"It's strange! Could it be that there are other mechanisms that lead to other places?"

Bai Yunqing muttered twice, searched carefully, and never found it, in desperation, he could only turn back and return, disappointed, but also stood at the mouth of the ladder and looked back and stopped.

Just as he wondered what seemed to be painted on the floor in the room, the sound of footsteps seemed to sound in his ears.

Someone's coming!

He secretly said that it was not good, and quickly ran upward, and as soon as he reached the exit, he heard a mutter, and the door on the ground floor of the Yanyu Building had been opened, and two people walked in.

The two muttered and talked, and Bai Yunqing took the opportunity to jump up to the second floor, knowing that there was no more result, and turned to leave.

"Someone has been here!"

Suddenly, there was an exclamation downstairs, Governor Fang had been revealed, and he had already had no time to close the staircase in a hurry.

"Someone! Alert! Don't let a fly go!"

I only heard the panicked howl downstairs, and the sound of the footsteps of the rope bell colliding with the armor came from the floor, Bai Yunqing was afraid of being noticed, and the true qi under his feet was windy, and he floated over the top floor and jumped to the eaves in the distance.

"The thieves are there!"

A sharp-eyed patrolling soldier shouted.

All the guards moved when they heard the sound and rushed out, but in just a moment, Bai Yunqing had already crossed the rows of roofs and disappeared into the eyes of the soldiers.

"Chase, search, search carefully, find out the thief!"

Tang Puwen frowned, and roared at the guards with anger.

Tang Yu waved his hand to stop it, a trace of shrewdness flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly had a plan in his mind, and his voice was like Hong Zhongdao, "That thief is probably the murderer last night! Issue a notice to the whole city, you must catch him!"

"Yes!"

The soldiers received the order and trotted away.

Tang Puwen looked at Tang Yu, his face was puzzled, and suddenly looked in the direction where Bai Yunqing left, and nodded suddenly, understanding the meaning.

"How's it going?"

"The thing has arrived, and there is not a trace of omission, a trace of flaws!"

"Very good, success or failure in this move, I'm afraid someone has noticed, I'm afraid this person is not the last one tonight, this matter will be completed as soon as possible, it can't be delayed again and again, it must be let go!"

"Subordinates take orders!"

"Can things be handled properly?"

"All is well......"

Tang Yu snorted coldly, brushed his sleeves and entered the house, walking with his hands on his back, Tang Puwen followed closely, and the two of them didn't know what they said......

Let's say that Bai Yunqing ran all the way, and when he arrived at the inn, the gate was closed, and the street on the other side of the Yanyu Building was full of fire.

Circling around the inn, I found an open window, the oblique moon shines, the lights are extinguished, and I don't know if there is anyone?

Bai Yunqing volleyed into the air, landed lightly in front of the window, turned over and rolled into the house.

Suddenly, at the moment when he entered the house, the whole room was lit with candles and shining like day, and the sudden scene couldn't help but make his heart tremble, and he looked at the people standing in the room who were looking at him with smiles.

"It's you!"

Bai Yunqing was taken aback, the person in front of him was none other than the crazy monk who provided clues for him to solve his puzzles during the day. Only, why is he here? And is it the only room in the entire inn with a window open?

"Hehe, little donor, it's the poor monk, the poor monk has been waiting for you for a long time!"

The mad monk laughed, put the fan in his hand between his armpits, sat on the edge of the bed, clasped his toes with one hand, untied the wine gourd on his waist with the other hand, put it to his mouth and pecked it lightly, and tasted it with a slurp.

"I wonder how did you know I'd be back at this time?"

Bai Yunqing stared at him vigilantly, and had already held Wentian in his hand, his expression was nervous, and his body was in a state of wanting to advance and retreat, and he did not move a point.

"Oh, don't panic, the poor monk has no malicious intentions, but there are some signs to talk to you about"

The mad monk suddenly got up barefoot, shook the wine gourd in his hand and walked towards Bai Yunqing with a smile.

"I'd advise you not to move!"

Bai Yunqing's arm stretched out, and the sword of Wentian was unfurled, only to stop in the throat of the mad monk.

And he didn't mean to stop, he still slowly approached Bai Yunqing, but what Bai Yunqing didn't expect was that as the mad monk approached step by step, a vague thrust passed from the tip of Wentian's sword to the hilt, and then continued to impact his arm, making him stagger back a few steps.

In addition to being frightened, Bai Yunqing hurriedly clasped his hands and grabbed the hilt of the sword tightly, but when he saw the mad monk's fan wave slightly, he only felt a shock from the tiger's mouth, and asked the sky to come out of his hand, and fell to the ground with a bang.

"Little donor, why are you so angry, although you are young and frivolous, didn't your master teach you not to face each other with swords when you see your elders......?

The mad monk squinted and shook his head and smiled, and the indescribable ridicule in his tone fell on Bai Yunqing's ears, only to feel extremely harsh, and suddenly made his face turn red and blue.

"Oh, okay, okay, the poor monk is looking for you to talk to you with serious business."

The mad monk patted Bai Yunqing's chest with a fan, signaling him to be relieved, and then said solemnly.

Bai Yunqing was curious about what made this crazy monk change his previous appearance, knowing that this matter was not trivial, and it also reduced his doubts about appearing here, and then asked coldly.

"What?"

"Do you know that when you went to visit the Yanyu Tower at night, there was another murder in Pinjin City! Not only was the death of the deceased particularly similar, but the cause of death was even more bizarre!"

"Oh, what's so weird, could it be that the mad monk you're chasing that thing?"

"If that thing made it, I would have taken him, but I'm afraid that the thing has sensed that I'm looking for him, this time it's the same as last time, the dead were disemboweled with a knife!"

"Again?"

Bai Yunqing exclaimed, he always felt that the matter was not accidental, the two dead were so similar, I am afraid that there must be a premeditated plan behind it.
