The next thing was completely unexpected.

When Pang Qi saw the man in black who fell to the ground, he was very surprised in his heart. Before this, there had never been a similar incident in Ekang City, and even if anyone told him Pang Qi that there were outlaws in Ekang City, he didn't want to believe it.

But now that the person was lying on the ground, Pang Qi was not only shocked, but also angry.

There have been no vicious incidents in the city for many years, and there are very few fights, let alone assassinations of the city lord. What's more, the current city lord is not an ordinary person, he is the prince of the Qitian Empire.

Therefore, later, the arrangement of all the personnel in Ekang City was carried out logically, and the trace of disapproval that Pang Qi had in his heart before was gone.

Immediately, the city of Okang issued an order, and the city entered a state of martial law, and only entry was allowed.

That night, the feeders were divided into two groups, and the front and rear gates of Ekang City were strictly guarded, not allowing anyone to leave the city, while Wang Junliang, Yin Cai and Zhuang Lexian, each with a few reliable dealers, began to quickly go door-to-door to investigate suspicious people.

This kind of situation is very rare in the city, and it has not happened in recent years, but most people who heard that someone had assassinated the city lord said that they were completely willing to accept the investigation and knew everything about their own family.

Wang Junliang and Pang Qi had already walked through many homes before, most of them were indigenous residents of Ekang City, and the villagers they were now leading were selected from these people.

There were many others who wanted to join in to help, but Wang Junliang declined. This kind of thing is still a bit dangerous, and the more people who go, the worse it is.

It's just that, after all, the manpower is limited, the work is not carried out quickly, Huang Yuchen also did it on purpose, he stayed alone and quietly in the city lord's mansion, if someone came to him without stopping to find him, he was very welcome.

But until the next day, when the entire city had been half investigated, there was no hidden person who had made any moves, and Huang Yuchen waited all night in vain, but he could probably understand what these people thought.

There will definitely not be a small number of people who infiltrate Ekang City, they may all have some luck in their hearts, hoping that they can get mixed up in such an investigation, if they get mixed up, they will undoubtedly have more protection in the future.

However, with the ability of Yin Caizhuang Lexian and Wang Junliang to do things, it is still a matter of being able to catch a cultivator face-to-face.

The sky was bright, and several people had not come back yet, Huang Yuchen, who had been waiting all night, stood up and stretched his waist for a long time, today is the agreed three days, and Jiying and Surong should be back.

In other words, it is best to solve the internal affairs of Ekang City today, he is more concerned about the affairs of Mingyuan City in the distance, after taking Mingyuan City, he can really accumulate strength to continue to move forward, Ekang City is just a temporary foothold.

Slowly walked into the hall of the City Lord's Mansion, the candle flame in the hall was still on, but the charcoal fire for heating had been extinguished, Huang Yuchen took a deep breath of the cold morning air, and his mind became clearer and clearer.

At his level, there will be no problem if he doesn't sleep all night, and the energy in his body has always been in a full state, full of energy.

After a while, a person came in from a distance in front of the City Lord's Mansion, Huang Yuchen fixed his eyes and saw that it was Yin Cai, his face was a little heavy, and he quickly walked into the hall of the City Lord's Mansion.

"What's wrong?" Huang Yuchen looked at Yin Cai's expression and asked.

"According to your orders, I didn't touch the suspicious people I found, but I found a little more this night. Yin Cai looked at Huang Yuchen and said: "I took someone to knock on the doors of thousands of households, and made simple inquiries and registrations, even so, I found no less than fifty people with cultivation, if according to such a ratio, this Ekang City looks weak, but in fact, the hidden combat power is really good." ”

Huang Yuchen frowned slightly when he heard this, this was indeed much more than he imagined, either the area Yin Cai searched for was the core area where these people lived, or there were far more cultivators hidden in the entire city than he imagined.

"Are they all aware of it?" asked Huang Yuchen.

"There must be a sense of it. Yin Cai replied: "But I followed the routine, knocked on the door and explained my intentions, and I didn't search, but everyone in the house met once, and they knew that we were short of manpower, and they were likely to gather forces to attack us in the back." ”

"That shouldn't be. Huang Yuchen said softly: "These people, they must not have entered Ekang City recently, they should have been hiding here for a long time, it is possible that they are spies planted in Ekang City, and not all of them are targeting me." ”

"I don't know if it was aimed at you before. Yin Cai said: "But after you enter the city, it is only a matter of time before these people target you, we did not lock the city a few days ago, and it is not clear whether they have received any new orders." ”

"It doesn't matter if they get a new order. Huang Yuchen said: "It will take a long time for such a secret book to be hidden, I guess their purpose is not to stare at me, and these people definitely do not belong to the same force." You can still remember all these people you met, where they lived, right?"

"Naturally remember. Yin Cai said: "There is still half of the division of labor that has not been completed, I just came back in advance and told you, so that you have a psychological preparation, are you transferring the feeders back, no matter how powerful you are, you are one person after all, if these people act in unison, it will still be a threat to you." ”

Now that the situation has not completely converged, Huang Yuchen can also understand what Yin Cai means, after all, Huang Yuchen has limited manpower around him now, and Su Rong and Jiying have not yet returned, and a few sneak attackers Huang Yuchen is naturally not afraid, but now that he knows that there are so many cultivators hidden in the city, before figuring out their identities, the necessary protection must still be done.

Huang Yuchen nodded lightly and said, "The feeder will not move, I will let the giant come back, and deal with these ordinary cultivators, the giant is enough." ”

"Okay, I'll go inform him. Yin Cai nodded, and walked out of the City Lord's Mansion directly, the actual situation in Ekang City was far more complicated than it seemed, such a small city with a population of several thousand households actually hid so many cultivators, if they had no plans, no one would believe it.

Huang Yuchen sat on a chair in the hall, looked at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, and let out a sigh of relief, what he said to Yin Cai was to try not to make him nervous, but Huang Yuchen himself understood that this Kang City didn't know what secrets were hidden, and so many cultivators could be attracted to gather like this.

And Wang Junliang didn't talk about this matter to himself before, if according to the proportion that Yin Cai said, there are probably hundreds of hidden cultivators in the entire Ekang City, and these people can play a mainstay role in the army, but they are all arranged to Ekang City.

Huang Yuchen vaguely felt that maybe monitoring and observing himself was just one of their tasks, and the more important task was to hide in Ekang City, and he didn't know what else was worth doing for them.

Such actions may have started before the Rebellion of the Three Kings, or even earlier, so what is their purpose......

Soon, the huge figure of the giant appeared in front of the door, he walked into the hall in a few steps, grinned at Huang Yuchen, and stood behind Huang Yuchen.

Huang Yuchen felt a wall appear behind him, and his heart immediately became much more steady, he turned back to the giant and asked, "Are you hungry?"

Hearing this, the giant shook his head lightly and grinned.

He could understand some simple words now, but it was obvious that his consciousness was not particularly clear, and he couldn't speak, and there was nothing Huang Yuchen could do about it, although his soul ability was stronger than that of ordinary people, but he had never been involved in this field, let alone treating others.

Huang Yuchen stopped talking, he sat quietly in the hall, waiting silently, he didn't know what he was waiting for, maybe he was waiting for Jiying and Su Rong to come back, maybe he was waiting for the entire Ekang City to end the investigation and summarize the news.

During this period, Huang Yuchen got up and lit the fire in the house, he didn't know how to light the fire simply, but he had fire attribute energy in his body, and it was still easy to ignite the fire.

While drinking steaming tea, I waited quietly, and soon, it was already noon.

Suddenly, two figures appeared in the city lord's mansion, Huang Yuchen raised his eyes and saw that it was Su Rong and Jiying, who had been away for three days, seeing these two people, a string in Huang Yuchen's heart suddenly relaxed.

Shadow and Su Rong walked into the hall, looked at Huang Yuchen, and said, "Are you listening now?"

Huang Yuchen grinned, then shook his head slightly, and said, "There are some other things in the city, these things are over, and we will explain the affairs of the far city." ”

Shadow nodded and sat down on the chair next to Huang Yuchen, while Su Rong glanced at him, didn't say anything, and walked straight into the hall, and then found a room to rest.

"Those cultivators did something to you?" said Gyaki, looking at Huang Yuchen.

"There is one. Huang Yuchen said: "But there was only one of them, and I still have some doubts about this, which is very strange." ”

"When I first found them, I already thought it was strange. "There are not a lot of them, it shouldn't be mainly for you, but I haven't found anything special to pay attention to in Ekang City, these cultivators are hiding around here, I don't know what their intentions are." ”

"Did you go out this time?" Huang Yuchen diverted the topic and asked with a smile.

Jiying shook his head lightly and said, "They have been prepared for a long time, but it is also quite smooth, you are going to let Zhuang Lexian go directly to Mingyuan City, I am afraid that it will be postponed." ”

When Huang Yuchen heard this, his brows furrowed, but he still didn't ask about the matter of Mingyuan City in detail, and he was going to wait for the matter of Kang City to be over.
