A square map of one zhang long and wide was laid on the ground, and every street and alley inside and outside the imperial city, including every residence, and every shop, was recorded in detail.

"Liuli, where you haven't been, draw a red circle, and where you don't go anywhere, draw a blue circle. ”

"Here, here, and here, my mother said that this girl and child should not go......"

Liuli took this as a game, stepped directly on the map, a left and a right two pens, left jumping, right jumping, a circle here, a circle there, after a while, a good map became a child's graffiti.

"Bihan, you go find a guard and invite Aunt Luo over. ”

Aochen stared at the map with his eyes, and said without raising his head, a man who would want to overlord a hard bow, a man who was crushed by Emperor Wu's self-esteem, and would talk about the rules of the rivers and lakes, and not make a move on women and children for decades? Aochen believed that he had no chance to catch Liuli, Liuli has always been closely protected, even if he is occasionally alone, the peerless swordsman does not know, which means that he is not well-informed.

Why is it inconvenient? There are people around who have something to do, and I am afraid that once I make a move, my identity in the imperial city will be discovered.

There are so many clues, and I can't find you out, I won't be called Jun Aochen in the future, it's just that that guy has been hiding for so many years, how high should his martial arts be? Unlikely, if it is really a supreme master, he may not be able to endure it for so many years, or Consummation is not worthy of being the opponent of Emperor Wu, the most likely is Dacheng.

"Aochen, are you looking for me?"

"Well, Aunt Luo, I just suddenly thought that Liuli has been in and out of the Imperial City for so many years, and the Peerless Swordsman wants to be in the Imperial City, why don't you hold Liuli hostage? ”

"Are you so sure that the Peerless Swordsman is hiding in the Imperial City?"

"If he is a poisonous snake, he must hide closer to seize that fleeting opportunity, after all, an impregnable castle is most likely to collapse from within. ”

"Do you have any clues?"

"The unequaled swordsman dares to argue with his uncle, his martial arts are definitely not low, he will not do those things that are shouted and drunk, and his age is not young, the swordsman's hands are different from ordinary people, if he wants to seek revenge from his uncle, he is always indispensable to practice on weekdays, so there are definitely not many people around. ”

"I understand, I'll follow these clues. ”

"Aunt Luo, don't check directly, so as not to startle the snake, find Baixiaolou and the guards who patrol the city on weekdays, let them provide information, start from the most easily ignored on weekdays, start to investigate, fight the watch, pour night incense, beggars, Yizhuang, especially some lonely old people, deaf and dumb old people, first make a suspicious list, according to work, place of residence, age, eating habits, scars on the body, etc., cross-exclude, as long as we can set the suspicious person within a certain range, there is nothing to do with us. ”

Hearing Aochen say this, Luo Qiuyu felt that the peerless swordsman was right in front of him, and he was about to come out.

With the signboard of Emperor Wu, no one dares not to do their best, not to mention that Aochen is still the young owner of Baixiaolou, Baixiaolou sent fifty people, pulled the information of the ten carriages, and joined forces with the people of the imperial city, and the guards who didn't know the inside story were all rumors, thinking that this was the prelude to the war.

The courtyard centered on Aochen's location was emptied within a mile, not to mention people, not even a bird.

"Everyone is divided into two groups, one group picks, one group platoon, and if you can't tell the truth, you will send people to tempt, beat him, scold him, steal his things, and stir up trouble, you don't need me to teach you, right?"

"No!"

The people in the thousands of doors do these things, it is a matter of pinching the snail with three fingers, and the sound is full of neutrality, and the dust on the roof tiles is flying.

"This beggar is a little suspicious, he has hands and feet, he is only sixty or seventy years old, he can farm and work, why do he have to be a beggar?"

"This shouldn't be, it's just a scoundrel and a lazy man, who was beaten twice in three days, and someone saw his leg broken a few months ago. ”

"What about this long-term paralysis? I haven't been out for a few years!"

"No, this family has invited all the famous husbands in the imperial city, if it is fake, can it not be found out?"

"The shopkeeper of this Yunjin cloth village is often absent and rarely appears in the store. ”

"He was the thunder sword Ma Yunfei who returned to the rivers and lakes thirteen years ago, and he came to the imperial city in order to hide from the peace. ”

"The latest news, the peerless swordsman has a black mole on the back of his neck, and his right shoulder has been scarred by the predecessor of Emperor Wu, and he likes to drink tea!"

"Where's this one?"

"The place where he lives is a large courtyard, and there are many people, unless he hasn't practiced for so many years. ”

"This person who pours night incense, has no children and no daughters, very suspicious!"

"He was a gambler when he was young, his wife and children were all lost by him, his fingers were stomped twice, and he also suffered from epilepsy, and he fell ill when collecting night incense two years ago, fell into the pit and was fished out, many people saw it, can a peerless swordsman do this?"

The place in the imperial city that is enclosed by glass, adding up to hundreds of thousands of people, excluding women and children, young people, at least there are fifty or sixty thousand, under the investigation of the two parties, the number of suspects is getting smaller and smaller, although very tired, but no one is willing to rest, one by one's eyes are red like rabbits, staring like bull's eyes, this is serving Emperor Wu, who is sleeping?

Five days of sleeplessness, the suspicious list is getting smaller and fewer, there are less than three thousand suspicious characters left, this is the imperial city after all, you know the roots, as long as you say a name, the guards of the imperial city ask a little, and the two sides corroborate, it is not difficult to rule out suspicion, of course, it is also possible that Aochen guessed wrongly, and the peerless swordsman is not in the imperial city of the world at all.

"What's the matter, there are only so many people left, do you want to report it to Aochen Gongzi? We have asked so many people these days, and we don't know if we have leaked the news. ”

A person from Bai Xiaolou raised his head and asked what everyone meant, he was not afraid of being tired, he was afraid of working in vain, the imperial city of the world was doing things, how many pairs of eyes were staring in secret, if he was a peerless swordsman, if he knew that the imperial city guards were secretly looking for someone in secret, I was afraid that he would have run away long ago.

This matter can be big or small, no one dares to make an idea casually, so everyone looked at Luo Qiuyu, Luo Qiuyu was about to say to ask Aochen's meaning, Aochen hurriedly pushed the door in, and said very quickly.

"Classify the rest of the people clearly, mark the places where they live and work, and pick out those who have no children, and the unequaled swordsman was shocked by Emperor Wu's predecessors and injured his kidneys. ”

They are working hard, and Aochen is not idle, he has been going around to learn about the information of the Peerless Swordsman, and every useful information is enough for everyone to rule out countless suspicious people.

"One hundred and twenty-three are in the southern district of the outer city, seventy-five are in the northern district of the outer city, and there are ninety-six in the inner city!"

Under Aochen's words, there was silence in the room, all the sounds of rummaging for information, and in less than a moment, someone reported accurate news.

"Less than three hundred!"

These days, Aochen was waiting for this moment, and he almost didn't think about it and said, "Bihan, send someone to the Divine Weapon Pavilion to ask the sharp hand Xu Kun to come and have a look." ”

"You all go and rest! the rest is my business, I have caught the Peerless Swordsman, and then I will have a celebration banquet!"

"I'm waiting for Gongzi to be successful, and he will be a matchless swordsman with a blade!"

"I don't dare to think about the blade, I can just pull him out!"

Aochen has always disliked boasting in his work, and he has at least a great consummation of the figure, and he doesn't dare to dream of such a thing when he dreams.

............

"Jun Gongzi, are you looking for me?"

"Yes, Emperor Wu Berberto, I'm looking for someone, now that the clues are there, do you want to make meritorious contributions?"

"Of course!"

He came to the imperial city of the world to take up a post, so naturally it could not be a good fortune, what he wanted was to make a meritorious contribution, to be able to get the guidance of Emperor Wu or the military minister nearby, and to have the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, even if he was stupid, he would not let it go.

"You go to the northern district of the outer city now, drink, complain, and say that because of challenging me, you were expelled from the imperial city by Emperor Wu's predecessors, and you feel unconvinced, what to do, I will let someone teach you." ”

"That's it?"

"That's it, Brother Xu, don't think that this matter is simple, nearly a thousand people have been busy for five days. ”

"Then I'll go!"

"Aunt Luo, you teach Brother Xu well and help spread the news. ”

"It must be done, white rabbit, black cat, go!"

Luo Qiu nodded heavily, and with a wave of his hand, he immediately summoned two of his subordinates and left with Xu Kun.

"Big mouth, you go back to the inn and stay, inform the left hand and they are ready, the Peerless Swordsman is likely to find you, do as promised, and notify me in the agreed way after dealing with it, be careful, don't lose your life!"

"Yes, Childe!"

Xu Kun was still frustrated by the defeat, but this would give birth to a feeling that he had picked up a credit for nothing, if he hadn't challenged Aochen, how could he get this errand, thinking about arching his hand towards Aochen, it was an expression of gratitude, and then turned around and left.

"Liuli, it is unlikely that the peerless swordsman is hiding in the inner city, let's check it out at the end, you ask Uncle to find a reason to temporarily close the inner city, block the circulation of news in the inner and outer cities, and then go to the southern district of the outer city to pick me up. ”

"Don't, Brother Chen, I'm going to accompany you to the southern district of the outer city!"

Liuli heard that Aochen wanted to risk his life, and his heart was full of uneasiness, and he pulled Aochen's sleeve and didn't let go, that peerless swordsman was a character who could fight with his father, and Brother Chen would definitely not be able to beat him.

"I'll ask the stewardess to accompany me, you give me the phoenix order, and then I'll take Ah Bao, even if I can't win, it's definitely no problem to hold on until Uncle comes." ”

Aochen is very confident in his own inference, hiding in other places, maybe it is safe, but how to calm his heart full of hatred? Staying in the imperial city of the world, staying under the nose of Emperor Wu, staring at Emperor Wu all the time, lying on the salary and tasting courage is the style of a poisonous snake.

"Then I'll go. ”

Liuli quickly took out the phoenix order and stuffed it into Aochen's hand, and then rushed towards the residence where Emperor Wu was.

"Childe, you must be careful. ”

"It's okay, with Emperor Wu's seniors and the Sky Lady here, how can I be fine. ”

"Stewardess, I'm sorry for you to accompany me. ”

"Let's go!"

Makino Qingkong was still expressionless, said two words lightly, and left first, she has always done things quickly to cut through the mess, and she doesn't like to push, Aochen followed closely, and on her shoulder stood a seemingly harmless Bao.

Just such a scene, thousands of people are busy for five days, Aochen has the initiative, and the battlefield has been drawn, I have to say, being a human brain is more important than martial arts, Aochen has been walking the rivers and lakes for two years, how many people have been fooled by Aochen in the palm of their hands, which is not strong in martial arts?

"On the surface, the Wushuang swordsman is good at using the sword in his right hand, but in fact, he can use both hands, and the left-handed sword is faster than the right-handed, after so many years, it is very likely that he has already reached the Great Perfection realm. ”

"Hmm!"

Makino Qingkong responded flatly, there was no fear or excitement on his face, just like he was just going out for a walk with Aochen, her water and moon would not be extinguished, even if it was the Great Perfection, it would last for a while, not to mention that Emperor Wu was taking care of it in secret, there was really no need to be nervous thinking about it, who is the prey, who is the hunter, it is not something that can be seen on the surface.
