After a few breaths, Chu Ci reined in the reins of the unicorn horse.

Da da da···

Under the control of Chu Ci, the linjiao turned around several times in situ.

"Stinky boy, what are you doing running so fast?"

The drunk Taoist chased after him, and asked in bewilderment, "Boy, what are you going crazy about?"

Chu Ci ignored the drunk Taoist, got off his horse, and carefully checked the surroundings.

The drunk Taoist looked at Chu Ci's actions and asked, "Boy, what are you looking for?"

Chu Ci responded without raising his head, "Sword Intent!"

"Sword intent?" The drunk Taoist paused as he stroked his beard, "Where does the sword intent come from in this boundless wilderness?"

Chu Ci searched around, but couldn't find what he wanted.

"Why not?"

"Before, I clearly sensed that there was a trace of sword intent left in this direction!"

Chu Ci stood where he was, thinking for a moment.

Zheng!

In the next second, a sharp sword intent shot up from Chu Ci's body!

Chu Ci wanted to use his own sword intent to attract the remaining sword intent nearby!

Clang!

A sword cry was no longer what Chu Ci expected.

Chu Ci restrained his sword intent, turned his head and looked aside.

Not far away, an irregular stone attracted Chu Ci's attention.

Chu Ci walked up to the stone, leaned over and looked at it carefully.

Under Chu Ci's attentive observation, he finally saw an imperceptible fine mark on the surface of the stone.

"Is this... the sword mark?"

Chu Ci was silent for a moment, stretched out a finger and tapped lightly on the stone.

click!

The stone made a crisp sound, and then broke from the thin mark!

hiss···

Chu Ci took a light breath, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

The fracture of the stone is as smooth as a mirror, and a ray of sword intent remains.

Although there is only a wisp of sword intent, it is extremely pure!

It is far from what the current Chuci can compare!

"Who is the one who left behind the sword intent?!"

Chu Ci stood up and couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

"During my sleep last night, I seemed to hear a sword cry?"

Chu Ci tried his best to recall that he seemed to have heard a slight sound of a sword last night.

The drunk Taoist came over, stroked his beard and said, "Boy, who left a sword intent here?"

Chu Ci shook his head slightly, "I don't know either."

"There is only one sword intent, which means that this person only made one sword."

"There is no blood nearby, so it doesn't seem like a battle?"

Chu Ci thought about it, but didn't have any clue.

"Forget it, let's go!"

Chu Ci greeted the drunk Taoist, turned over and rode on the linhorn horse.

The drunk Taoist shook his head helplessly, and muttered, "I've been doing it for a long time, but there's nothing!"

Da da da···

The sound of hoofs sounded.

The drunk Taoist looked at Chu Ci again, and he had already left on horseback.

"That stinky boy!"

The drunk Taoist knocked lightly on the horse's belly and chased after him.

Not long after Chu Ci and Zui Taoist left, a woman's figure suddenly appeared in the open space not far from the stone.

The woman is tall and slender, wearing a black sword robe, with a bronze Shura ghost mask on her head.

The woman put her plain hand on the hilt of the long sword at her waist, and looked at Chu Ci's back with deep eyes.

call!

A gust of wind blows across the field.

A piece of turf under the woman's feet was lifted by the wind, revealing several corpses buried under the turf!

Swish!

The woman's figure flashed, and she moved across the wilderness like a phantom.

In the blink of an eye, he was already a hundred meters away.

With such lightning-fast movements, it is not a problem to follow Chu Ci and Zui Taoist far behind.

Chu Ci and Zui Taoist rode their horses and galloped, not knowing that there were people following them from afar.

The two raced along the official road for a long time, and finally found a place to stay.

"White Rock City?"

Chu Ci looked at the engraved words above the gate of the city, and couldn't help saying, "I remember that this was originally the territory of King Pan Yang, right?"

The drunk Taoist didn't care about King Pan Yang at all, but looked at the city with longing eyes, and couldn't wait to have a drink.

Seeing this, Chu Ci chuckled, "Let's go, let's go to the city!"

Baishi City is located on an important road, with many pedestrians coming and going, it looks quite prosperous.

Chu Ci asked someone about the largest restaurant in the city, and they walked over quickly with Zui Taoist.

"Xiao Er, come to a private seat!"

The two of Chu Ci walked into the restaurant and greeted the busy waiter.

"Alright, please go upstairs, both of you!"

The waiter took Chuci and Taoist Zui up to the second floor.

"What do you two want to eat?"

The waiter handed over the menu and asked.

Chu Ci took the menu, glanced at it and said, "For these special dishes, let's have another jar of good wine!"

The waiter's eyes lit up, this is a big customer.

"Okay, just wait a moment, the food and drink will be here soon!"

After the waiter finished speaking, he turned and left.

The drunk Taoist sat on the seat, looked around, stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Is this restaurant well decorated?"

"I just don't know how the drinks are."

Chu Ci looked at the drunken Taoist and said with a smile, "It's good to drink some!"

"Master Daoist, after dinner, let's go to Prince Panyang's mansion in the city."

After all, it was originally the territory of King Panyang, and in this Baishi City, there is also a Palace of King Panyang.

The drunk Taoist nodded when he heard the words, and said indifferently, "Okay, the poor Taoist just leads the way, and the rest is up to you."

After a while, the food and wine were served.

"Two take it easy!"

Chu Ci lifted the mud on the wine jar and poured a bowl of wine for the drunk Taoist and himself.

"Daozhang, finish this bowl of wine!"

The drunk Taoist picked up the wine bowl and said with a smile, "Do it!"

Three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

After Chu Ci and Zui Taoist were full, they paid the bill and left the restaurant.

Before leaving, Chu Ci asked the shopkeeper of the restaurant the location of Prince Panyang's Mansion in Baishi City.

The Panyang Prince's Mansion is built along the river, and is located in the center of Baishi City.

The palace occupies a large area. From a distance, it can be seen that there are all kinds of pavilions and pavilions.

Chapter 248 Palace Visitor

After King Panyang was deposed by the empress, the original palace was also taken back by the empire.

Although the Panyang Prince's Mansion has been emptied, the Nuo Da's Palace cannot be neglected.

This matter fell on the Ministry of Rites.

The Ministry of Rites dispatched lower-level officials to manage the former site of King Panyang's mansion, and handed it over after the empire rewarded it to a certain minister in the future.

Chu Ci and Zui Taoist came to the door of King Panyang's mansion, raised their hands and knocked on the copper ring on the door.

boom!boom!

After a while, the gate of the palace was opened from the inside.

An official walked out of the palace, looked at Chu Ci and Zui Taoist and asked, "Who are you?"

Chu Ci took off his waist badge and handed it to the official.

"Bronze medals with strange feelings, Chuci!"

The official took the bronze waist badge, inspected it for a while, and respectfully returned it to Chu Ci.

"My subordinate Zhao Dahai, I have met my lord!"

"Adults, please!"

Zhao Dahai hurriedly turned around, allowing Chu Ci and Zui Taoist to enter the palace.

Chu Ci looked at the environment in the palace, and asked aloud, "You are taking care of the palace now?"

When Zhao Dahai heard Chu Ci's question, he nodded quickly and replied, "Report to my lord, as the receptionist of the Ministry of Rites, I will be in charge of the transfer of the palace."

Chu Ci nodded and continued to ask, "Are you the only one in the palace?"

"Of course not." Zhao Dahai replied aloud, "In addition to the lower officials, there are also servants who take care of the environment of the palace, as well as guards."

Chu Ci asked, "How long have you been in charge of the palace?"

Zhao Dahai replied, "Ever since King Panyang withdrew from the palace, the officials took over the palace with people."

"Calculating, it's been nearly three months, right?"

While the few people were talking, they had already arrived in the hall of the palace.

Chu Ci and Zui Taoist found a chair in the hall and sat down.

Zhao Dahai said in a respectful voice, "My lord, wait a moment, I will order someone to make some tea for you."

After Zhao Dahai finished speaking, he turned and left.

After a while, Zhao Dahai walked over with a kettle and teacups.
