Chapter 394: Intelligence
Gotta ......
When the rouge horse chased into the alleyway, he had already lost the figure of Steward Yang. This side is a different street, and the alleys in it are intricately intertwined and twisted, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will turn somewhere else.
It was nighttime, and although there was a bright moon hanging in the sky, the lanes were dark due to the obscuration of the eaves.
At the beginning, the rouge horse used his sense of smell to catch the smell left by Steward Yang and was chasing after him.
Suddenly!
The horse demon hissed, and gradually stopped, its nostrils constantly spewing breath, looking uneasy. He sensed danger approaching, something unclean.
Chen Tang has the blessing of breath, and he is more well-informed than the rouge horse in this regard.
There was silence all around, and it was eerily silent. Raising his head and watching, the yin qi was brewing, as if it was about to boil.
Chen Tang remembered that the area here belonged to the prosperous area of the state capital, and it was much more remote from the last time he came back from Snow Moon Island. That time, a large number of yin ghosts appeared, turning a street into a delusional realm, trying to trap Chen Tang and the others. Now, even the prosperous area has been affected, and there is a change in yin qi, which is self-evident.
In terms of Song Siming, he is really getting more and more restless, and it can even be said that he is rampant.
The Midyear Festival is approaching......
Looking at the dark and gloomy distance, Chen Tang pulled the reins and rode out on a rouge horse.
Ran out of the alleyway and returned to the original market, where the lights were also extinguished, and only some cold moonlight was sprinkled.
"Huh?"
Soon, he found that the body of the strong man was gone, and there was a pool of blood on the ground, blackened, and nothing else was left.
Seeing this, Chen Tang easily thought that the Yang steward who fled was probably more than lucky.
It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, clamp the horse's belly, and gallop away.
At this time, in the state capital, there was not even a single soldier patrolling on the street, and there was no trace of the watchman.
Returning to the courtyard, the night watchman saw him returning, and hurriedly opened the door, one by one. In the evening, Chen Tang chose to follow the captain of the nine doors, and the whole Gu family sweated, very worried.
The Nine Gates are mysterious and powerful, with a great reputation, and not a good reputation, and anyone who touches it will not end well, even more terrible than the prison in the official yamen.
Su Tao and Fu Mingjin greeted them and asked with concern: "Door leader, you are finally back, but you are worried about us to death." ”
Chen Tang said indifferently: "It's okay, the nine doors are also the imperial court departments, talking about the king's law and reasoning." ”
Su Tao looked at each other, half-loud and speechless, they had never heard of this.
Chen Tang smiled: "Don't worry, then Captain Yan is very reasonable, I told me what happened, and it was clear." ”
"That would be fine. ”
The two of them were relieved, as soon as the Yan Duwei arrived, he took down the domineering Xiahou Qing, no matter what, this alone can make people have a good impression, as Chen Tang said, the other party is reasonable, and he can distinguish between the green and the white. This is not surprising, for example, there are thousands of officials in the world, some good and some bad, some corrupt and some clean.
Fu Mingjin hurriedly said: "Master Gu has an order, saying that when you come back, let people go to the house to report a letter." ”
Chen Tang nodded: "Then you can go, just say I'm fine, and I'll go over tomorrow morning to talk to the adults." ”
Encountering this incident today, Gu Heng and others estimated that it would be difficult to sleep and eat.
"Good. ”
Fu Mingjin ran out with a cigarette.
Chen Tang returned to the room, fetched water and freshened up, cleaned up, sat on the bed and began to do his daily homework.
After half an hour, there was a buzz, the iron card moved slightly, the yin qi was permeated, and Wang Liulang appeared.
"See Childe, I was observing in Yin Si today, and sure enough, I found that there was something unusual, so I came back to tell you. ”
Chen Tang asked, "How specifically?"
Wang Liulang hurriedly said: "In the city shrouded in yin qi, there was a huge sound suddenly, like the roar of ten thousand beasts, which was quite terrifying. I could hear it, it was all hungry ghosts roaring, hungry for flesh and blood tonic. ”
"Hungry?"
Chen Tang raised his eyebrows.
Wang Liulang replied: "Ghosts are like people, and they have to eat." ”
Chen Tang waved his hand: "This, I understand it, then how many do you estimate in the city?"
"Listen to that movement, tens of thousands!"
Wang Liulang had palpitations in his heart.
Chen Tang asked: "Under Song Siming, there are so many Yin soldiers?"
Wang Liulang said: "During the Taiping period, there was definitely not, but there was a military accident and turmoil in Panzhou in the early stage, and countless innocent deaths were killed, and many ghosts were detained in the Yin City. ”
Chen Tang was silent.
Wang Liulang continued: "Childe, if all these Yin soldiers are killed, the consequences will be unimaginable, and the huge city will become a ghost in an instant. ”
Chen Tang knew in his heart that in the face of tens of thousands of Yin soldiers, even if he carried the sword box, it would be difficult to parry. He originally had a plan, that is, he wanted Wang Liulang to go to Yin Si and develop. Unfortunately, time is pressing, and it cannot be implemented at this time. With Wang Liulang's current situation, he couldn't form any obstacles to Song Siming, at best, he was just an errand runner to find out information.
Wang Liulang said: "The roar of thousands of ghosts in the city, as well as the sound of Jin Ge, the sound of war drums, according to the small view, it will not be long before the troops will be dispatched." Yes, the day after tomorrow is Halloween, which is the most suitable. ”
Chen Tang said: "Okay, I know, you go back first and continue to observe, but you must pay attention to the hidden and don't be detained in the city." ”
"Understood. ”
Wang Liulang respectfully replied that if he was caught and refined into a Yin soldier, he would lose his independent soul and become a slave, driven by others, and used as cannon fodder.
As he spoke, the figure dissolved into the yin qi and soon disappeared.
Regarding the changes in the Zhongyuan Festival, Chen Tang had already guessed, and the information that Wang Liulang brought back tonight was the most powerful evidence and basis.
It is rumored that during the Midyear Festival, the boundary between yin and yang will become weak and blurred, so that many yin spirits can run out and appear in the yang world to enjoy human sacrifices. Obviously, Song Siming wanted to take advantage of such an opportunity, but the Yin soldiers were different from the lonely souls and wild ghosts, they were fierce and strong, but they were also subject to greater constraints by the rules of heaven and earth, and if they wanted to rush out, they needed a corresponding blood sacrifice ceremony to break through the barrier with strong blood qi.
The key lies in how the ghosts in Panzhou City will conduct the blood sacrifice at that time.
Nine times out of ten, the inner ghost should be on the Divine Lotus Sect. And the target of the Divine Lotus Sect should be the Tan family's soldiers.
The basic context has been sorted out, and there is nothing more to say.
Next, tomorrow, Yan Huandan will make all the people from the nine gates of Panzhou move, arrest the whole city, and arrest the people of the Divine Lotus Sect, especially the culprit Chen Hongru.
This is crucial.
Tomorrow......
Chen Tang's eyes flashed, and then he fell into the darkness.
