When Xing Zhen arrived at the inn, Chen and the others were already there.

Shang Ji's eyes lit up when he saw Xing Zhen coming, and he hurriedly got up to greet Xing Zhen.

"I've seen adults. Shang Ji was respectful to Xing Zhen, smiling, and very flattering.

Chen and Amon pursed their lips, as if they didn't know Shang Ji, and knocked on the melon seeds by themselves.

Xing Zhen looked at Shang Ji strangely and surprised, not knowing what medicine he was selling.

"Shang Ji, what are you?"

"I was overjoyed to see adults again, and I was so excited that I was depressed. Shang Ji shook his head and said with a smile.

"Okay, in the near future, I may need your light skills to sneak into the Yuan Palace, the cemetery, the Holy See or something. Xing Xuan walked past him and sat down in his seat, "I'm not sure either, let's see what happens tonight." ”

Shang Ji turned his head, frowned, looked at Xing Xuan with embarrassment, and said, "Oh, my lord, this ......... Aren't you embarrassed, you're just a little snitch, I'm afraid......... I can't do it. ”

Xing Xuan looked at him suspiciously: "Why do you say that?"

"My lord, you also know that I am just an ordinary person with a mutation of Yuan Force, I ........." Before Shang Ji could finish his chatter with a frown, Xing Ji "snapped" and put a red yuan leaf on the table.

Shang Ji, who was frowning, suddenly stretched his brows, the corners of his mouth also rose, he squinted his eyes, stretched out his hand, and quickly took the red yuan leaf into his arms.

"Although he is a waste person with a mutation of Yuan Force, since the adults appreciate it, he must go to the soup for the adults in the next place, and he will not hesitate. Shang Ji slapped his sleeves on his waist, and said with a straight face.

“............ I think you're looking at the face of money. Xing Xuan teased.

"Who has a grudge against money, my lordship. Shang Ji smiled.

Xing Zhen also laughed, and patted the stool next to him with his left hand.

"Sit down. ”

"My lord?" Shang Ji was stunned for a moment, thinking that he had misheard, "You are an official of the Yuan Palace, I am just a commoner, and I can't sit next to you in terms of rules." ”

"It's not in the Yuan Hall now, let you sit down, you can sit. ”

"Nuo" Shang Ji stared at Xing Ji for a few seconds before he reacted, and sat down in his seat a little timidly.

Xing Yu and Chen and Amon nodded, and then turned to Shang Ji.

"We came to you today to ask you something about the burnt rites. "Wait until we're done with something."

"Well, didn't these two adults tell you?" Shang Ji's eyes wandered a little when he heard Xing Yu ask this question, as if he was unwilling to answer this question.

"I need to be specific, it doesn't matter if you don't want to say it, you can write it down. Xing Xuan said, "You were the only one who saw those strange things that day. ”

As he spoke, Amon took out the quills and ink that had been prepared in the storage ring and placed them in front of Shang Ji.

Shang Ji hesitated, and his breathing became slightly short.

But eventually he picked up the pen and began to write on that piece of paper.

At this moment, it seemed that time had frozen, and the noise of people coming and going in the entire inn was gone, and only the "rustle" of the quills remained.

He wrote for a long, long time, and the paper was punctured many times.

Finally, he put down the pen and stared at the paper for a few seconds before picking it up and handing it to Xing Xuan.

Xing Zhen took it and read it carefully, his face gradually became gloomy and frightened, his face changed greatly, and he looked at Shang Ji in a daze.

Shang Ji dodged Xing Xuan's gaze and didn't say a word.

night

It was already a time of time, and there were no people on the street for a long time, only the candlelights on the side of the street emitted a faint light, which was very frightening.

At this time, a drunken boy turned red, staggered alone on the night road, muttering in his mouth.

He was untidy, his hair was disheveled, and the lights of the street illuminated his face, but he was not the gentleman he saw as soon as Xing Zhen entered the city.

"Hmph, that prostitute actually thinks of me...... I don't think I'll lift it, phew, she's just a stinky bitch......! Dare to insult me!"

As he spoke, he immediately raised the wine gourd in his hand and took another big sip.

"Hmph, hiccup......... That...... That damn bustard, he even dared to kick me out, and when my grandfather went back, he told my father that he must demolish the Yixin Pavilion!"

He was talking nonsense, his steps seemed to be dancing, his eyes were squinting, and his body was full of alcohol.

At this moment, a figure appeared in front of him, also with strange steps, staggering from side to side, walking two or three steps, stopping, walking two or three steps, stopping, and passing through on both sides of the road.

The only difference from the boy was that the man kept his hands up, looked up at the sky, and was silent.

The boy tilted his head, saw the person in front of him, and immediately the corners of his mouth rose, as if he had found the same kind, and rushed towards the person very happily.

The man moved slowly, and although the boy drank too much and staggered, he quickly caught up with the man.

He put his hand on the man's shoulder and handed the wine over very boldly.

"Brother, have you also encountered something unhappy? Do you have no wine in your hand? Don't worry, I ask you, if there are any bad things, let us be happy...... Phew, talk to Ben Gongzi and exchange experiences. ”

As the saying goes, if you do too much injustice, you will kill yourself, and if you are panting in your stomach, sooner or later you will not even be able to stand it.

This son is like this, and what happened next will be deeply seared in his mind, and he will never forget it for the rest of his life.

The man turned his head mechanically, and it turned a hundred and eighty degrees!

His eyes were empty, there was nothing, and he "looked" at the child, although there was nothing in his eyes, but it gave the impression that he was staring at the child.

He grinned so wide that the corners of his mouth could be on the same line as the bridge of his nose.

"Ahh

Day 2 – The Inn

Xing Xuan held his chin and thought about it carefully, but he still canceled the strategy of sneaking into the cemetery secretly, and planned to cooperate with Ying Chenji to discuss with the Holy See to see if they could be accommodating and let them let him in.

"Whimsical. Ying Chenji on the side glanced at him and said neatly.

"How can it be whimsical? If those Mu Duo allow it, won't we save a lot of trouble?" Xing Xuan wondered, "You don't want to sneak in secret, do you?"

"These are minor issues, and the important thing is that I bet the old diehards of the Holy See will not let us in. Ying Chenji said.

"Why?" Xing Xuan scratched his head and said, very puzzled, "Isn't it possible to enter on Rite Day?"

"Rite Day is Rite Day, only Rite Day can enter the cemetery, and if we disguise ourselves as officials of other departments and say what we want to do, they will not let us enter the cemetery either. ”

Ying Chenji stood up as she spoke, spread her hands and said, "But since you insist on going, it doesn't matter, go during the day, they don't agree, let's sneak in at night without delay." ”

"Okay, that's it. The corners of Xing Xuan's mouth rose and said.

At this moment, the door was slammed open, attracting the attention of the two.

Amon walked in in a hurry, his face solemn.

"Xiaoxuan, something happened. ”

Not long - Yuan Palace

Xing Zhen and his group of four walked briskly on the corridor while listening to the eunuch of the Yuan Hall next to them narrate.

The more the eunuch of the Yuan Hall spoke, the more panicked his face became, and Xing Xuan's brows became more and more furrowed.

Soon, they pushed open the door at the end of the corridor and poured in.

In addition to Li Moqi, there were also two guards of the Yuan Hall in the room, and there was a person beside them.

The man was tied up with five flowers, his mouth was filled with cotton wool, his eyes were covered with black cloth, and he kept struggling.

Xing Xuan glanced at the man, and then followed the other three to bow towards Li Moqi.

"See Master Lee. ”

"You're here. Li Moqi put his hands behind his back, not knowing what he was looking out the window.

After a while, he slowly turned his head and walked to Xingxi's side.

"Oh, Miss Ying is here too, but it's a coincidence. Li Moqi raised his eyelids and said, "Then we can get down to business." ”

"Xiao Zhen, how is your errand. Li Moqi waved his hand, and the two Yuan Hall guards arched their hands when they saw this and retreated.

"Master Li, what happened...... Forgive me for my incompetence, Dongcheng hasn't found anything yet. Xing Xuan said.

"It's okay, it's only been a few days, it's a big deal, I know it's not that easy to check. Li Moqi said, "I have one thing here that may be able to help you." ”

Xing Xuan had already learned from the eunuch's mouth, and he didn't need Li Moqi to open his mouth, he had already sorted out this matter.

A man encountered a strange and terrible thing in the middle of the night, and fainted in fright, but after being rescued by the neighbors, he had been screaming all over the street, and everyone was terrified, so he brought him here in order to stop his mouth.

As for what he saw, there were three things: one, he was talking madly, two, what the man said was true, but someone was deliberately pretending, and three, it was indeed true, another strange thing, and it might have something to do with the burnt rites.

Xing Zhen subconsciously glanced at the person kneeling on the ground, he should be an eyewitness, and he still had to listen to his confession and make a judgment.

And Li Moqi also means this.

Xing Xuan stepped forward and pulled the cotton wool out of the man's mouth, and the man's mouth began to scream as soon as it was free.

"Nightmare! Help, help!"

"Xiaoxuan, he doesn't look normal. Amon stepped forward to remind.

Xing Xuan was silent, ripped his blindfold open, and suddenly his eyes widened in surprise.

The man was still panting, and his body was shaking violently.

When he saw Xingxuan, he was stunned.

Xing Zhen couldn't cry or laugh, isn't this the son he met when he just entered Tianyou County?

"You...... You ......" The gentleman pointed to the stars and froze in place.

Amon recognized him too, and the corners of his eyes twitched.

"Looks like you still know me, so that's easy. Xing Xuan said and took out a jade order from his sleeve, "Yuan Hall Qin ordered the chief of the court guard, the knight title, but I didn't trouble you today." ”

The gentleman was also smart, and suddenly struggled to get close to Xing Xuan with a sad face.

"My lord, help, my lord, there are ghosts, there are ghosts, there are ghosts!

As he spoke, he kowtowed headlong towards Xingxuan, but due to his own big ties, it was difficult to stand up no matter how hard he struggled.

Xing Zhen helplessly helped him up, and the gentleman snorted and burst into tears, and said, "Help, adult!"

Not much.

Xing Zhen and his party walked out, Amon and Yingchen Ji chattered and discussed, Xing Zhen was expressionless, took out the silver knife on his waist and wiped it carefully.

"What do you think, Gongzi. Ying Chenji asked.

"Me?" Xing Zhen smiled, "It's a clue. ”

"Is it a clue? Why? How could he believe it. Amon wondered.

"We didn't believe before, but now we have to believe in this situation. Xing Xuan said, "Besides, he speaks clearly and quite organized, plus the incident happened in Dongcheng, so there is still something to be desired." ”

"I think this incident has something to do with the centaurs that Shang Ji saw that night. Xing Xuan said, "No matter what, we have to speed up the pace, there will be a second time, the incident happened in Dongcheng, if it causes panic among the people, this case will not be investigated, so, even if it is fake, we have to give it a try, after all, there is no better clue." ”

Amon and Yingchenji felt that what Xing Xuan said made sense and nodded.

"Let's go to the Holy See now. Xing Xuan said, "Amon, call Shang Ji and go there to have a look." ”
