Soul echo

Chapter 743 Captured
When Zhong Ye returned to Dongtu on the ship of the Dongtu caravan, Dai Lila saw the traces of Zhong Ye and saw the possible future.

For her, as long as the causal relationship is sufficient, it is not difficult to observe the future of an event.

Dai Lila had long discovered that Situ Kong was in contact with a certain prefect, but before she reminded the emperor to let the emperor monitor Situ Kong's talisman, she didn't know that person was the prefect of Licheng, nor did she realize that The prefect is actually an abyss believer.

After Situ Kong escaped, Dai Lila contacted the emperor immediately and told him about it.

Under normal circumstances, only the prefect can have the talisman, but when Zhong Ye left Jingzhou, he took the magistrate's talisman with him.

In order not to let Jingzhou lose contact with him, the emperor prepared a new talisman for Dai Lila. Even after Zhong Ye returned to Jingzhou, the talisman was not taken back.

When the emperor received the news, he immediately ordered someone to monitor Situ Kong's talisman. As long as Situ Kong used the talisman to communicate with people, he would immediately collect information and confirm the identity of the person who communicated with him.

As a result, they followed the clues and found the magistrate of Licheng.

Licheng is the largest port in the world, so it is so important to the Huang Kingdom. The magistrate of such a place is actually a disciple of the abyss. The emperor can't help but wonder, besides the magistrate of Licheng, how many high-ranking officials are also disciples of the abyss?
In short, after finding out that the prefect connected with Situ Kong was the prefect of Licheng, Jin Yiwei dispatched, but their identities to the outside world have always been 'six-door catchers'.

Jinyiwei is an organization in Dongtu that specializes in dealing with Abyss incidents. Even if there is no order from the emperor, as long as they detect traces of suspected Abyss activities, even if there is no evidence, they will stop and search.

【oh?What else?What else did you see? 】The emperor asked with great interest.

"I saw a lot, such as..."

Delilah narrowed her eyes, "Now there are a few little thieves who are about to escape. They should be Situ Kong's accomplices."

…………

"Ha! Delilah..."

Hearing Zhong Ye mention that name, Situ Kong pretended to be calm and smiled, beads of sweat oozed from under his skin.

As Zhong Ye said, he didn't know Delilah well, he only knew that she was a beautiful elf with good working ability and strong curiosity.

But beyond that, he knew nothing.

Just because he didn't understand, because he was unknown, when Zhong Ye said the name 'Dai Lila', Situ Kong felt inexplicably flustered.

Delilah, is there anything that elf can do?Why did Zhong Ye mention her name at this time?Or could it be said that Zhong Ye was actually deceiving him?In fact, the female elf can't do anything and doesn't know anything?
Although Situ Kong wanted to believe these conjectures, he knew with his toes that Zhong Ye didn't know how to deal with government affairs at all. During the one month or so when he was the acting magistrate, who helped him with government affairs and who helped him Manage Jingzhou so well?
There is no doubt that it must be the female elf!
Thinking of this, Situ Kong felt a burst of panic.

He didn't pay attention to Delilah before this, why?
"I can tell you the truth, why I mentioned Delilah at this time."

As Zhong Ye spoke, he was also paying attention to Situ Kong's state. The psionic energy had already floated to his hand. As long as he relaxed a little, the psionic energy would directly insert into the gap and stretch his fingers apart.

"Because Delilah has the ability to predict the future, no matter how many accomplices you have hiding inside or outside Jingzhou City, she will be able to notice their existence at the first time. The reason why she didn't find you before is that she led this incident The culprit is because she didn't pay attention to you."

Situ Kong's expression changed, "You're lying!"

"Did you hear that?" Zhong Ye said calmly, "The supervisory censor did not respond."

Hearing this, Situ Kong's expression changed again.

He almost forgot that Zhong Ye was still a supervisory censor, and he carried the supervisory censor order with him.

The supervisory censor can tell the truth from the false, but fortunately he did not lie just now. Although he is not sure whether his accomplices hiding in Jingzhou will attack Jingzhou, at least Jingzhou does have his accomplices.

--wrong!no!Can't be distracted!
Situ Kong reacted immediately, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

These are all Zhong Ye's words, the purpose is to attract his attention, as long as he relaxes a little, his time of death will arrive.

His throat rolled up and down, Situ Kong locked his eyes on the round mirror, and pursed his lips tightly.

At this moment, a throbbing pain suddenly came from the heart, like ripples, instantly filling the body.

Situ Kong stared and his face turned pale.

Is this... a spell?
Zhong Ye doesn't know spells, and he still wants to save the coachman. It is obviously impossible for him to cast it, but besides him, who else...

In a daze, a group of people's faces flashed in front of his eyes, and Situ Kong gritted his teeth tightly.

"It's...you guys!"

Since there is a risk of information leakage after he is caught, why not kill him before he is caught?

Situ Kong let go of the hand that was gripping the coachman's neck, leaned against the fender, and yelled through gritted teeth, "Zhong Ye...help me!!!"

The surrounding air suddenly boiled, but it was extinguished by Situ Kong's words.

"I know the identities of many abyss believers lurking in the court, save me...I'll tell you!"

The next moment, the carriage suddenly exploded, and the loud noise scared the driver and the horses pulling the carriage.

clack clack...

Zhong Ye stepped on the carriage, and the huge weight made the floor of the carriage groan unbearably.

"Master Zhong, Mr. Zhong?!"

The coachman tried his best to control the horse, unable to look back, but he knew that Zhong Ye had arrived.

"It's all right." Zhong Ye looked up at the coachman, "Drive the carriage back to Jingzhou!"

"Yes Yes!"

The coachman nodded again and again, and restrained the ragged horse. Then he breathed a sigh of relief, and wiped his forehead with his hand, which was covered with sweat.

At this moment, he finally had the time to turn around and saw Zhong Ye squatting beside Situ Kong, pressing Situ Kong's chest with his hand.

After looking at it twice, the coachman turned his head, turned his horse's head, and returned the same way.

True Qi poured into Situ Kong's body through his arm, and his constricted heart began to beat slowly under the effect of True Qi.

Situ Kong's lungs were like bellows with holes, and every breath was extremely strenuous. His heart could no longer beat on its own, and it could only beat slowly with the help of Zhong Ye. Oxygen is sent throughout the body.

Lying on the car deck, staring blankly at the blue sky, Situ Kong felt that his body was gradually losing control, first his limbs, then his chest, abdomen, and lips—everything was paralyzed.

His mind gradually became blank, and the world slowly dissipated in his eyes...

After an unknown amount of time, Situ Kong regained consciousness, opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was a low ceiling.

He stared blankly at the ceiling, slowly got up, and with the swing of his hands and feet, there was the sound of iron chains colliding.

The candle hanging on the wall was burning quietly, shining into Situ Kong's eyes through the iron fence.

This is...the cell.

—he came alive!

Situkong looked at everything in the prison, not knowing whether to be happy or disappointed.

His companions had decided to abandon him, but fortunately he survived.

However, being locked up here is obviously not a good thing, Zhong Ye has a great killing intent towards him, he is not sure if Zhong Ye will kill him after revealing the list.

I have to escape, but how to escape is still a problem...

ga-

The prison door was pushed open, and Situ Kong looked up in amazement, and then saw a policeman walking in with a goose feather knife on his waist.

"Yo, are you awake?"

Seeing Situ Kong sitting in the cell, the policeman smiled coldly, dragged the chair and walked over.

The policeman placed the chair in front of the cell door and sat down.

"I'll tell you one thing. You don't have to wait for Mr. Zhong to interrogate you. Mr. Zhong is very clear that he is not suitable for this job. After all, he has always kept his promise. If you use 'forgive you not to die' as the price for handing over information , he is also very difficult to handle."

Listening to the policeman's words, Situ Kong fell into astonishment.

"One side is the promise, and the other is the murderer who killed more than a dozen people. Mr. Zhong knew that it was difficult for him to make a choice, so he simply didn't want to get involved in this matter, and left the matter to our Jin Yiwei to handle it..."

As he said that, the policeman smiled again, but this time the smile looked very bright.

"Don't worry, we will serve you well and let you tell everything! Come out! Come out!"

Staring at the policeman in a daze, cold sweat broke out on Situ Kong's forehead.

This time, he really can't escape... he might as well die!
