Chapter 157: Story
Another ten days have passed, plus the previous five days, and half a month has passed.
Zhou Hao was already ninety percent sure that this short-haired man with the seventh layer of qi refining was not the monk he was looking for.
The life of a short-haired man is very regular, and there is nothing else to do every day except eating, sleeping, and cultivating.
It can be said that except for the day when he came to Longyang City for the first time, he came over to take a look at himself, and the next half a month was as if nothing had happened.
If the short-haired man is the person he is looking for, in this half a month, he can't have no intention of going to the government to inquire at all.
Taking advantage of the night, after the short-haired man fell asleep, Zhou Hao left this place and went to find Xiaoqing.
When he came to the residence of the black-faced old man, Zhou Hao stared at Xiaoqing silently, without saying a word, and the surroundings were still quiet.
"Zhou Hao, what's wrong with you? Why do you keep looking at me like this? For half a month, I have been supervising him very seriously. ”
"Really?" Zhou Hao asked expressionlessly.
"Of course it's true. Xiaoqing nodded very hard.
"Or wipe the saliva from your face and say this to me again. ”
Xiaoqing felt that her right face was wet, and there was no way to do it, so she didn't have time to wipe this.
"Zhou Hao, I followed him for fourteen days in a row. After finding out that he wasn't the person we were looking for, I fell asleep tonight. Xiaoqing explained her actions.
"Are you sure it's fourteen days?"
Under Zhou Hao's dead gaze, Xiaoqing finally confessed honestly.
"Well, only twelve days. ”
Twelve days In Zhou Hao's opinion, it is not easy for Xiaoqing, if there is no temptation of food, Zhou Hao suspects that he will not be able to hold on for even a day.
These two casual cultivators are not the people Zhou Hao is looking for, it seems that the murderer is likely not in Longyang City, so things will become very troublesome.
The current situation is the last thing Zhou Hao wants to see.
There was no way, Zhou Hao took Xiaoqing back to the official mansion and had a good night's rest.
Early the next morning, Zhou Hao, who got up, saw Xiaoqing, who was sleeping soundly on the ground, and did not disturb him.
I haven't shown up for half a month, and it's time to go out for a walk, otherwise people will think that you have returned to Tianmen.
"Immortal Master, you're finally out!"
The county order, who was originally walking back and forth outside the area specified by Zhou Hao, saw Zhou Hao coming out of the small courtyard, so he immediately greeted him.
"What's wrong?"
"Immortal Master, it's good news, I have good news!" The county official's face was full of joy, ten days, he had been waiting for ten days.
Zhou Hao didn't come out for half a month, and he was already regarded as a retreat by the county officials, which is the kind of event that the immortal master likes to do the most. Now that Zhou Hao has come out, he naturally regards it as the end of the retreat.
The immortal master is here to carry out a mission, and he is willing to perform a mission after the retreat, and now he tells the immortal master the good news, maybe he can be promoted.
The joy of the county magistrate was written entirely on his face.
"What's the good news?" Seeing that the county magistrate was happy like this, Zhou Hao's curiosity was also aroused.
"An immortal master came and said, he has the immortal master you want to arrest, where to hide. ”
"Oh. ”
Zhou Hao also showed a little smile, he really had nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it took no effort to get it. For half a month, he has been very careful to track and observe the short-haired man, but the person is not the person he is looking for.
Now, is it possible to find the murderer?
Zhou Hao reminded himself not to be happy too early, and when he really found the monk, it would be too late to be happy.
"What about the Immortal Master?"
"It's right in the house. Seeing the smile on Zhou Hao's face, the county official knew that he had a great possibility of being promoted to become rich, "Xiaguan, this will lead the way for the immortal master." ”
After walking a few steps, Zhou Hao suddenly stopped and asked, "When did he come here?" ”
The divine sense unfolded, and Zhou Hao happened to find the immortal master in the mouth of the county official, this person has the realm of the fifth layer of qi refining, and the key is that he only looks a little older than himself.
At such an age, in the midst of casual cultivation, it is rare to be able to have a fifth-level cultivation of qi refining.
"Ten days ago. ”
Zhou Hao nodded and continued to let the county official lead the way, ten days ago, that is, five days after he left the official mansion, there was no problem with this.
The county official took Zhou Hao to a side hall of the official mansion.
Zhou Hao waved his hand and motioned for the county official to go down, he went in by himself, and the county official bent over with his hands and disappeared very quickly in front of his eyes. Zhou Hao is still quite satisfied with the performance of this county official.
"This fellow Daoist must be the core disciple of Tianyi Sect. Niu Longhu heard the footsteps outside, and when he saw Zhou Hao coming in, he greeted him with a smile, "Niu Longhu is under Niu Longhu, I don't know the name of my friend..."
"In the next week. Zhou Hao naturally greeted him with a smile, after all, people also sent him news, "Niu Daoyou, I heard the county official say that you have the specific location of that monk, I don't know if this is true?"
Zhou Hao came up and asked directly, he didn't mean to beat around the bush, and he didn't have a few words with this bull dragon and tiger. The news he got from the sect was that no one should know his identity about the monk who committed the crime in Longyang City.
for those who knew his identity had died at his hands.
And this fifth-level Qi refining monk actually had news of this monk in his hands...... It's hard to tell the truth from the fake.
"Of course it's true, this monk is on a hill to the west of Longyang City, where he lives. Niu Longhu said in very positive language, he was not lying, he was telling the truth.
Zhou Hao nodded, it seems that this bull dragon tiger is quite confident.
"Niu Daoyou, I would like to know one thing. ”
"What's the matter? ”
"How do you know that this monk is there?"
Coming, Zhou Hao's question, Niu Longhu has already thought of it, and he has also made full preparations for this.
I saw Niu Longhu lower his head, his fists clenched unhesitantly, and there was a bone clicking sound, and his voice became a little low.
"Brother, he died at his hands...... When I learned about this, I immediately started looking for the murderer. Because I know that Tianyi Sect will not let this matter go unattended, after I find him, all I have to do is to wait, wait for the arrival of your core disciples of Tianyi Sect.
Half a month ago, Zhou Daoyou entered Longyang City, after I learned the news, I once again accelerated my search, the emperor lived up to his wishes, ten days ago, I finally found his residence. At that time, I watched him from a distance, and he was cultivating there, so I came here and waited for Zhou Daoyou to come out. ”
Niu Longhu briefly recounted the story he made up.
