ten mile river moon
Chapter 71 Prey
Soon, Mu Xing and Wen Ting came out of the morgue, their expressions were not very good, Liu Chengyue thought to himself, it seems that things will not be simple...
Several people quickly bid farewell to the county magistrate and prepared to return to the city lord's mansion.Because the city lord's mansion is not far from the county government, only a few streets away, so everyone walks.
Walking on the street, Liu Chengyue looked at the streets that looked a little more depressed than before, and sighed inwardly. In the struggle between power and interests, those who are at the disadvantage will always be these unarmed people.
These people are obviously the foundation of a country, but when wars and rights struggles occur, these people are always used and sacrificed.The prosperity of the country and the prosperity of the people and the tranquility of the years have never been truly realized...
After returning to the City Lord's Mansion, as soon as they walked outside the small courtyard, everyone saw Duan Fei hurriedly coming from the other side. After seeing Liu Chengyue and others, Duan Fei quickened his pace and walked in front of them.
Just as he was about to speak, Mu Xing grabbed Duan Fei's sleeve, "It happened that we were so busy all the way that we didn't even drink our saliva. Let's go have a cup of tea first?"
It was only then that Duan Fei realized that although there were people of his own around the small courtyard, it was hard to guarantee that there would be no others.They can send people to watch Lian Chengxun without anyone knowing it. Similarly, Lian Chengxun can also send experts around them. As the saying goes, walls have ears.
After entering the courtyard, everyone sat down in the front hall together, Duan Fei then said, "Palace Master, just now the subordinates sent someone to secretly search for Xiaosan and Xiaosi in the mansion, but they searched almost the entire City Lord's mansion, but there was still no one. "
Several people here were a little surprised when they heard the words. The people in the Shadowless Palace are still capable, but now that so many people are dispatched together, they can't even find the traces of the two missing people. This is worth thinking about...
After a pause, Duan Fei continued: "But our people have gained something else. They found a secret passage outside Lianchengxun's study on Fifteenth, but in order not to startle the snake, our people didn't go in."
"What else?" Jiang Lie asked, if Duan Fei had only discovered the secret way, Duan Fei would definitely not be as anxious as before.
Duan Fei hesitated for a moment, but still said: "I found this outside the secret road, and it was because of this thing that they discovered the secret road hidden in the rockery." Duan Fei handed Jiang Lie a jade pendant , it is the sapphire pendant that represents the identity of the shadow guard.
"But the study room is also under the surveillance of the hidden guards. This subordinate has already asked the dark guards on duty last night. There was nothing wrong with the study room last night, and no one approached the secret passage of the rockery."
Everyone was a little surprised. If the jade pendant was found in front of the secret road in the rockery, then the person should also be found. Now that the jade pendant is missing people, something is obviously wrong...
"Palace Master, what should we do next?" Duan Fei looked at Jiang Lie and asked.
Liu Chengyue also looked at Jiang Lie curiously. She didn't know what Jiang Lie would do at this time. It felt like everything was piled up at once...
"Let Ying and Xiao Er go to explore together, and come out immediately if there is any situation." Jiang Lie said.
Duan Fei nodded, and immediately went down to make arrangements.Liu Chengyue on the side suddenly asked: "How is the condition of that corpse?"
Wen Ting shook his head, "It's not very good, the situation is even worse than old man Chen's last time..."
Liu Chengyue was shocked, that is to say, Li Er's situation was the same as old man Chen's last time, and it was even more serious!
"What about the rotting corpse?" Mu Xing thought about it. They don't have many people with them now. If there is a lot to be said about the secret road, then it will definitely take a lot of people to investigate. There was Lian Chengxun and Ouyang Ming, and there was really no way to separate more people to investigate an endless and extremely weird case.
Jiang Lie frowned. Although they considered that things would not be simple when they came, they really didn't expect so many things to happen at the same time.
Originally, Xiao San and Xiao Si would be the best candidates to investigate this rotting corpse case, but now both of them are missing, half of the other shadow guards have been sent out, and the rest are not suitable...
And if something is discovered in the secret path, they will definitely have to go there in person, and they will need manpower at that time.
Jiang Lie beckoned, and soon a black-clothed shadow guard appeared in front of everyone, "Send someone to talk to Lian Chengxun and ask him to send someone to patrol the city day and night to strengthen security." Jiang Lie ordered, very soon Soon the man in black disappeared again.
Liu Chengyue looked at the disappearing figure of the shadow guard, and understood Jiang Lie's thoughts. They came to Luoyue City for Lian Chengxun, but now they have no clue about the case. For the safety of the people, they asked Lian Chengxun to strengthen their guard in the city. Rather, it should be able to deter the people behind it, and they can take this opportunity to continue pulling Lian Chengxun's pigtails...
Everyone discussed the current situation together again, and then returned to the room, waiting for news.
I thought that Ying and Xiaoer would come back soon. After all, Ying's kung fu is not inferior to that of Jiang Lie. With a Xiaoer who is good at mechanism skills, a secret way should be no problem. After dinner, Ying and Xiao Er came back in a mess.
"What happened?" Liu Chengyue asked in surprise, even Ying and Xiao Er were in such a mess, could it be that the secret way has another secret?
The others also looked at the two with doubts on their faces, Ying still had some facial paralysis, while Xiao Er, who was relatively more lively, looked a little embarrassed.
"After we entered the secret passage, we found that the secret passage was very long and rather rough, so we didn't take it too seriously at first, but after we walked out of the secret passage, we found that it was actually in a snow valley." Ying Ying Said expressionlessly.
Liu Chengyue was a little surprised. Although this Luoyue City is not very big, it is still quite a distance to go out of the city. The secret road leading to the Snow Valley from the City Lord's Mansion must be outside the city, so the length of the secret road is probably is amazing enough.
After Ying finished speaking, Xiao Er continued: "We found traces of people's activities in Snow Valley after we went out, so we hid in a place to see what's going on, but in less than a quarter of an hour, a group of snow wolves came over, and they also For some reason, they seem to know our location, chasing us..."
When Liu Chengyue heard this, she suddenly realized that she felt so embarrassed because of the pack of snow wolves, and thought she had encountered some kind of ambush... However, the snow wolves in the mountains would only hunt for prey in the mountains when the winter came, unless they really had no food left. , and snow wolves are generally smarter, and will not attack humans easily, and generally choose ordinary small animals to attack.
Then why did the snow wolves in Snow Valley attack Ying and Xiao Er, and kept chasing them?Besides, the shadow guards are all very familiar with the inspection procedures. During this kind of inspection, they must have something to cover up their own smell. How did these snow wolves find the two of them in the first place? s position?
The more Liu Chengyue thinks about it, the more she feels that they have walked into a trap set by others. It is not really his conspiracy theory, but that the development of things is getting more and more out of their control, and there is a faint tendency to be passive, as if someone is constantly throwing out bait , and then wait for them to take the bait step by step...
When I talked about my own thoughts, everyone agreed that when some things are not noticed, I really don't feel anything, but once all the things are linked together, it is really too much of a coincidence.
Will they be someone else's prey...
