CHAPTER XXXIX

I saw a young man wearing a blue and white brocade robe with a long knife hanging from his waist walking out of the patrol yamen.

"Did you two ring the bell?" asked the young man.

The young man is not handsome but he is delicate, but his long flat eyes give the young man a sense of gloom.

"It's us. Bai Yuxuan said.

The young man was shocked by Bai Yuxuan's beauty, but immediately recovered.

"What's the matter with you?" asked the young man.

"We have clues about the murderer of Zhou Wei. Ye Xun continued.

When the young man heard this, his eyes froze, first a large number of Ye Xun and Bai Yuxuan, and then he turned sideways slightly and said, "Please." With that, he took the lead and walked in.

Ye Xun asked in a low voice, "He just let us in?"

Bai Yuxuan said, "Then what else, interrogate first?" After speaking, he walked in. Ye Xun shrugged his shoulders and followed Bai Yuxuan into the Patrol Yamen.

The patrol yamen said that it was the yamen, but in fact there was no main hall for the government yamen to hear cases, and when you walked in, you could see many busy blue and white figures.

There are also three people guarding the door, who are responsible for opening the door and receiving the person who reported the crime.

"You guard first, and I'll take them to see Lord Cao. The young man said to the three men at the door.

After speaking, the young man led the two of them to the inside of the yamen.

After a while, the three of them came to a room in the backyard. The young man stood outside the door and said respectfully, "My lord, these two people said that there are clues about Zhou Wei's case. ”

A deep voice came from inside the room, "Let them in." ”

The young man nodded respectfully, and then he turned his head to Bai Yuxuan and Ye Xun and said, "You guys go in." With that, the young man turned and left.

Ye Xun and the two looked at each other, and then pushed the door open together.

I saw a man in his forties in the room sitting at a desk looking at something.

The man is not tall but very burly, his appearance is average, but there is a sense of oppression on his body. There was a little murderous aura floating from the man's body, and it was obvious that this Lord Cao was not a weak hand.

Ye Xun secretly probed and found that this Lord Cao's realm was higher than himself, and even higher than that black-robed man.

Lord Cao raised his head and looked at Ye Xun and the others for a while, and then looked at Bai Yuxuan, "I heard from one of my subordinates that there is a son from the Bai family, named Bai Yuxuan. Saying that, he looked at Bai Yuxuan again, "I didn't expect it to be a daughter." ”

Bai Yuxuan said calmly: "I didn't expect that Cao Lin, who was famous in the rivers and lakes back then, is now serving in the Wind Patrol Division. ”

Cao Lin smiled and said, "Okay, don't talk about these things, this Miss Bai, you said you have clues about Zhou Wei's case?"

Bai Yuxuan nodded and said, "That's right." Then Bai Yuxuan told Cao Lin about her guess. However, the seven-star jade is hidden in it, and it is only referred to as "something".

Cao Lin was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then he said, "Since this is the case, I will send someone to monitor Xiao Hu'er." Hopefully, it's as Miss Bai guessed. ”

After speaking, Cao Lin waved his hand and ordered the eviction of customers, "It's good to go, don't send it." ”

Walking out of the room, Ye Xun couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "What is the origin of this Cao Lin?" ”

Bai Yuxuan said as she walked, "This Cao Lin became famous twenty years ago, and he is a scattered martial artist in Youzhou. He practiced a set of advanced internal skills that he got out of nowhere, as well as a matching knife technique, and made a great reputation in the rivers and lakes. ”

"This person is both good and evil, and he does things according to his preferences. Bai Yuxuan paused and said, "He has killed many martial artists, and the murderous aura on his body also comes from this." However, he inexplicably faded out of the rivers and lakes five years ago, and he didn't expect to serve in the Wind Patrol Division. ”

Ye Xun said curiously, "How did you know these things?"

"Our Bai family has a library that records all kinds of events in the rivers and lakes. Bai Yuxuan said.

Ye Xun shrugged his shoulders and continued, "His realm is very high, is he a super-first-class master?"

"No, at least not when he disappeared. Bai Yuxuan affirmed.

Ye Xun nodded, he put his right hand on his left arm and nodded rhythmically, and after a while, Ye Xun said, "I also want to tell the Penglai faction about this." ”

Bai Yuxuan said strangely, "Why did you suddenly decide to tell them?"

Ye Xun smiled: "That's interesting." ”

Bai Yuxuan said helplessly: "Your interest...... It's really weird. ”

Ye Xun smiled and didn't explain, out of the gate of the Patrol Yamen, he and Bai Yuxuan went straight to the rice shop of the Penglai faction.

Walking into the rice shop, Ye Xun saw the old man last time at first glance. He walked over directly and whispered, "I have something important to look for the young master of your family." ”

The old man also knew Ye Xun, he glanced at Bai Yuxuan more, then turned around and walked into the backyard.

It didn't take long for the old man to return to the rice shop, and he bowed down and said, "Two inside, please, the young master is waiting for the two in the backyard." ”

"Thank you. Ye Xun arched his hand to the old man.

Walking into the backyard, Ye Xun saw Li Geng, today's Li Geng was wearing a black practice uniform, holding a long sword in his hand, his face was slightly red, and there was a lot of sweat on his forehead, obviously he had just finished practicing.

"Brother Ye, is there something wrong with this?" asked Li Geng, wiping his sweat.

Then his eyes saw Bai Yuxuan and said, "This woman is ......"

Bai Yuxuan arched her hand and said, "Bai family, Bai Yuxuan." ”

"It turned out to be the eldest lady of the Bai family, in Penglai Li Geng. I have admired the daimyo for a long time. Li Geng said again and again.

Bai Yuxuan also said: "It turned out to be Senior Brother Li Geng of the 'Little Fairy Sword'. ”

Ye Xun said helplessly: "...... way you say hello?"

Bai Yuxuan glanced at Ye Xun with disgust, and Li Geng smiled and said, "Brother Ye is a scattered martial artist, of course he doesn't know the circle of this sect family. Listening to his tone, he also seemed to be very uninterested in this so-called circle and Taoism.

"I don't know what Miss Bai and Ye Xun are looking for. Li Geng said.

Ye Xun coughed lightly and said, "It's about the Seven Star Jade." ”

As soon as he heard the words "Seven Star Jade", Li Geng's expression froze, and he arched his hand and said, "Please come into the house and talk in detail." ”

Ye Xun and Bai Yuxuan nodded, and followed Li Geng towards the courtyard. There are many flowers planted in the yard, and the faint fragrance of flowers wafts around.

Li Geng stopped in front of a wooden house, he turned his head and said, "Please wait a while, stay in the next place, change your clothes, and come to talk in detail." With that, he opened the door of the hut and left.

Ye Xun and Bai Yuxuan walked into the wooden house, Ye Xun looked around and found that there were only some ordinary wooden items in the house.

"I thought that this young master of Penglai's house must be very luxurious. Ye Xun said.

Bai Yuxuan said: "Although Li Geng is the young master of Penglai, he is different from those gentlemen of the family sect, and his strength ranks among the top three among the new generation of disciples of the Penglai faction. The Penglai Immortal Sword of the Penglai School is perfect. I've heard his name for a long time. ”

"You adore him. Ye Xun snorted.

Bai Yuxuan looked at Ye Xun a little strangely, "Shouldn't you...... I'm jealous. ”

Ye Xun sighed and said, "Jealous? Why am I jealous?" "Even though I say that, it's a bit wrong no matter how you look at it.

Bai Yuxuan's beautiful eyes kept scanning Ye Xun up and down, which made Ye Xun uncomfortable.

At this time, Li Geng changed his clothes and came back. He wore a short cyan robe, white warrior pants underneath, and a pair of leather boots on his feet.

"You may be seated. Li Geng stretched out his hand and said.

The three of them sat down around the wooden table, and Li Geng poured a cup of tea for Ye Xun and Bai Yuxuan.

Ye Xun took a sip of the teacup first, and then said, "Brother Li, I don't know if you still remember the black-robed man I said at the beginning." ”

Li Geng nodded and said, "Naturally, I remember." ”

Ye Xun said again: "After Yu Xuan's analysis, we are now very sure that the black-robed man is the ghost of the Demon Sect Ghost Cave. Bai Yuxuan's little face couldn't help but blush when she heard Ye Xun's name for herself, and Li Geng also looked at the two of them with interest.

After listening to Ye Xun's words, Li Geng said, "Have you found the ghost?"

Ye Xun took another sip of tea, and then said, "Of course, I don't know if Brother Li has heard of Xiao Hu'er. ”

Li Geng said with a smile: "Of course I have heard of the name of the first prostitute in the world. ”

Ye Xun snapped his fingers: "This ghost is very likely to be Xiao Hu'er." ”

After listening to Li Geng's rhythmic tapping of his fingers on the wooden table, Ye Xun and Bai Yuxuan waited quietly.

After a while, Li Geng's fingers stopped on the table. He said, "Thank you, Brother Ye, for informing me." ”

"Brother Li, if you have any ideas, you have to act quickly, I heard that Xiao Hu'er will leave the county in a few days. Ye Xun said again, he hoped that the Wind Patrol Division and the Penglai faction would do it quickly, he didn't want to be remembered all the time.

Li Geng stood up and said to the two, "Thank you, there are arrangements in my heart." ”

Ye Xun nodded, and then said goodbye to Bai Yuxuan and left.

......

At night, patrol the yamen.

Cao Lin stood out the window with his hands in his hands, looking at the empty night.

"A ghost...... Characters on the black list of the imperial court. If I can kill her, I'll be able to get that 'thing'

It's right. "The black list is a wanted list specially set up by the imperial court for some famous demon sect masters and scattered demons. As long as someone can take their heads to the various patrol yamen, they will be rewarded by the imperial court.

If the slayer is a member of the Wind Patrol Division, he can get some merits, and these merits can be exchanged for certain treasures from the royal treasury. When Cao Lin was young, he fought with life and death many times, and because of improper conditioning, he left many dark diseases on his body. I didn't think there was anything at the time, but when Cao Lin reached the first-class realm, it slowly showed up. Because of these dark diseases, Cao Lin's internal strength realm improved slowly, or even stagnated.

Five years ago, Cao Lin heard that there was a treasure called "Ao Zhu" that could cure his own dark diseases, and after many inquiries, Cao Lin learned that there was a "Ao Zhu" in the imperial treasury, and this "Ao Zhu" happened to be among the treasures open to the Wind Patrol Division. So Cao Lin joined the Wind Patrol Division.

"Hey, it's been a long time since I moved my muscles...... I hope that the protector of this ghost cave can make me happy. As he spoke, a murderous aura floated out of Cao Lin's body, and this murderous aura continued to rise.
