Undercover Self-Rescue System

"Then I won't be polite, and I hope the city lord can give me the corpse over there and take it back." Xuan Ye pointed in the direction of the group of people.The city lord looked over there, a little confused, but he hid his doubts very well.When he saw Steward Liu rushing over with people, the city lord finally realized that this was probably the strange corpse that Steward Liu reported in the morning.

Although the clear expression on the city lord's face has been hidden from everyone, it has not been hidden from Xuan Ye.

"Your Majesty, do you have any insights into this case of murder?" The city lord asked tentatively.

"Not yet, I need to take it back to have a look." After Xuan Ye finished speaking, he didn't say anything. Seeing that he didn't seem to want to speak, the city lord didn't continue the conversation, but ordered someone to bring the body over.Then he turned around and invited Xuanye to live in the mansion.

Xuanye glanced at Qingliu and Zisu, Zisu lowered her head and said nothing.At the beginning, I went down the mountain to investigate, and the other was to prepare for the master to go down the mountain. Now I can't even find a place to live.

Qingliu had no choice but to stand up and explain, "Master, the large and small inns in Huilan City are full of people. Thanks to the invitation of the city lord, the disciples will not live on the streets."

After Qingliu finished speaking, the city lord saw Qingliu's envoy's color, and immediately went on to say, "This reward conference is hosted in Huilan City, and I also want to help as much as I can, but I am a mere mortal, and I really can't help. Invite the venerable to go to the residence for a while to rest, let me express my heart."

Xuanye was silent for a long time, Qingliu looked at Xuanye uneasily, seeing that his master was not angry, but he did not see a soft attitude, and was a little nervous. "master......"

"Then please trouble the Lord City Lord." Xuan Ye ignored Qingliu and just nodded slightly to the City Lord.

Seeing that Xuan Ye agreed, the city lord immediately smiled.

A group of people headed back home in a mighty manner, Qingliu walked beside him, Xuanye, and the city lord led the way.

Xuan Ye turned sideways and asked Qing Liu who was following behind, "Where's your uncle?"

Qingliu looked at Xuanye suspiciously, "The uncle is here too? The disciple doesn't know."

Xuan Ye frowned, the displeasure in his eyes was obvious. "Your uncle didn't come to see you?"

Qingliu suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, "No, Uncle Master didn't come to look for me."

"What about Xuan Qing?" Xuan Ye's voice cooled down, and Qing Liu, who had been serving him all year round, immediately knew that the master was angry.

Qingliu became more reserved, and Xuanye's hesitation made Xuanye even more impatient, "Speak directly!"

"After we came to Huilan City, we separated from Xuanqing."

Xuanye stopped and took a look at Zisu and Qingliu. Qingliu and Zisu didn't expect that their uncle would go down the mountain too, or they would have gone to Xuanqing a long time ago.If the uncle knew that Xuanqing was lost by them, he would definitely not be happy, and the master has always loved the uncle.The two of them lowered their heads and looked at the ground in affirmation.

Xuanye looked at these two people coldly, "You guys let me down too much." When they were in Xuanqimen, the two of them often bullied Xuanqing.He has always known.Because of his younger brother, he doesn't like Xuan Qing very much, but he has to act like he loves Xuan Qing, which makes the two very dissatisfied, so as long as the two don't do too much, he usually turns a blind eye of.Before going down the mountain, he urged the two of them to take care of Xuanqing. Now that the two of them have lost their beloved apprentice who is the junior, how can he give the junior an explanation.

"After you go back, the two of you will contemplate behind closed doors for a year." Xuan Ye shook his sleeves and left without any room for negotiation.

The city lord who was walking in front noticed the situation here, but realized that it was just someone else's private matter, so he pretended not to see it.

The city lord led a mighty team to greet people at the gate of the city, and everyone in the city knew about it.Some Taoist cultivators knew that the city lord was going to greet the venerable Daoist Xuan Ye, but some didn't know which big man the city lord was going to meet.Those who knew wanted to look up at the appearance of Venerable Chiri, and those who didn't know wanted to see who this big man was.

So when the team was walking on the road, the windows of the houses on both sides of the road were crowded with people.

The city lord led the way ahead, and Xuan Ye followed behind. He didn't show any expression to the boiling crowd.

Just now he sent out a paper crane to look for his junior brother, but he has not found anyone until now.Xuan Ye couldn't help but frowned, completely disappointed with these two apprentices who failed to accomplish anything.

When passing by the largest inn in Huilan City, Xuan Ye, who had kept his eyes closed for a while, suddenly opened his eyes, and his sharp eyes swept towards the second floor, straight to the window.

Wu Mu stood at the window and looked at Xuan Ye, and looked at him unexpectedly, his whole body was not well, and his heart skipped several times.Zheng Hongyue saw that there was something wrong with his expression, so she came over and pulled him away, "What's wrong?"

"It's okay." Wu Mu shook his head.Seeing that he was unwilling to speak, Zheng Hongyue glanced downstairs, saw Xuan Ye's leaving back, patted Wu Mu's shoulder reassuringly, and the two left the window.

As soon as the two of them left, Zhiyao who was in the room opened the door and walked out to watch the leaving team.Smiling, he drank the tea in his hand and went back to the house.

Xuanye calmed the restless worm, remembered the name of the inn and left.

After the city lord arranged the residence of Daoist Xuan Ye, he walked out of the courtyard and returned to the study.He was sitting on the grand teacher's chair, and on the table was the health regimen revealed by Qingliu. He recuperated according to the above. Recently, his weak body has become more energetic.

"Knock-"

"Come in." The city lord opened his eyes and looked at the door.

Butler Liu and Mrs. Zhang, who were in charge of taking care of Qingliu, Zisu, Tang Qiong and Wu Xing, opened the door and entered.

The city lord looked at the two of them and asked, "Speak."

Mrs. Zhang and Butler Liu glanced at each other and summarized their recent secret observations.Butler Liu stood up and said, "Lady Qingliu has been practicing in the house. Since the last time I met Miss Tang Qiong, I have always been very interested in Miss Tang Qiong. I occasionally ask for news about Miss Tang Qiong from my servants."

The city lord nodded after listening, and Mrs. Zhang continued, "Ms. Tang Qiong and Wu Xing are both very quiet. Ms. Tang Qiong often walks in the yard, while Ms. Wu Xing likes to stay indoors and read books, and doesn't go out often. .”

"Did the two of them mention going home?"

"Miss Wu Xing asked, but I stabilized it."

The city lord nodded, and said to Steward Liu, "You come to arrange the encounter between Tang Qiong and Brother Qingliu. If Brother Qingliu is happy, you can give it to him. Mrs. Zhang, make arrangements as well, and bring Wu Xing out to meet him. Guest. Wu Xing is not Tang Qiong, you should think about it."

"Yes." Mrs. Zhang replied.

Butler Liu and Mrs. Zhang nodded.The city lord ordered again, "Those three beauties are already on their way to the imperial city, please pay more attention, and nothing unexpected will happen."

In the evening, Xuanye finally got news of Yunjian.

Yun Jian brought the very reluctant Xuan Qing to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.Steward Liu, Qingliu and Zisu came to greet them in person.

"Please, Daoist." Steward Liu looked at Yunjian, who nodded towards him.

"Uncle Master." Zisu and Qingliu looked at Yunjian.

Yunjian ignored the two of them, and directly ignored them and led Xuanqing to follow Steward Liu.

Qingliu and Zisu were both unhappy and at a loss, and they didn't even dare to breathe after following.

Waited until the courtyard where Xuanye was.Yun Jian thanked the housekeeper.Xuan Ye waited at the door and looked at his junior brother and Xuan Qing behind him, his eyes turned to Qing Liu and Zi Su who were bowing their heads.

"Xuan Qing, how are you doing recently?" Xuan Ye asked, looking at Xuan Qing who was following Yun Jian.

Xuan Qing didn't like this uncle very much, because this uncle was too strict, and he had a faint feeling that his uncle didn't like him very much.

Yun Jian spoke before Xuan Qing did, and he gave Qing Liu and Zi Su a cold look, and said, "Okay, why not, I live in a dilapidated temple and live a very good life."

Xuanye looked at Yunjian silently, but he didn't expect the situation to be worse than he imagined.He looked at Qingliu and Zisu, "Is this how you two take care of your junior brother?"

Zisu wanted to refute, but Qingliu pulled her sleeves, and her mind calmed down instantly.It is useless to refute, the master has always favored the uncle.

Qingliu looked at Yunjian, "Uncle, I was careless. I didn't notice my brother when there were many people, and got separated from him. Zisu and I searched for a long time, but we couldn't find him. Uncle, we know wrong."

Yunjian ignored Qingliu's apology at all, "Wrong, what did you do wrong, and you have no responsibility to take care of Xuanqing. If you make a mistake, it is also my fault. My mistake is to entrust Xuanqing to your care!"

Xuan Ye frowned, "Brother..."

Xuan Qing tugged at Yun Jian's sleeve, with red eyes, "Master."

Yun Jian looked at Xuan Qing and rubbed his head. "Hey, the master will follow you wherever you go in the future."

Xuan Qing turned grief into joy, widened his eyes happily, hugged Yun Jian's arm, "Really?!"

"Really." Yun Jian laughed, immediately making all the beautiful faces around her pale.

A trace of displeasure quickly flashed in Xuan Ye's eyes, and he said with a smile: "Junior brother, this is not good, Xuan Qing is so old and has his own private space, he will be unhappy if you follow him."

Xuan Qing held Yun Jian's arm, and said childishly to Xuan Ye, "No way."

Yunjian laughed happily, and the expressions on Qingliu and Zisu's faces improved a little. "I will follow you from now on. You are my unique treasure. If something happens to you, Master will die of grief."

Xuan Qing's rough nerves were rarely sensitive, and his face was blushing.The master would always say something that made him blush and heartbeat.

The smile on Xuan Ye's face was a little cracked.He controlled the murderous aura in his body, and said to Yunjian, "Although Xuanqing was raised by you, your own son is not so close, right?"

Yun Jian shook his head, "Brother doesn't understand."

Xuan Ye clenched his fist behind his back, changed the subject and said, "After running around all day, looking for Xuan Qing again, are you tired? I'll ask someone to arrange your room next to mine, and Xuan Qing's room is next to Li Yuan's." , go to rest now."

Yun Jian looked into Xuan Qing's eyes and said, "No need, Xuan Qing shares a room with me, senior brother will lead the way."

The expression on Xuan Ye's face couldn't hold on anymore, "Isn't that good? You are masters and apprentices, so it's not very respectful for you to say it."

Yun Jian shook her head, "I don't care what other people think, I just don't want Xuan Qing to be wronged."

When Xuanye heard Yunjian brought up the matter again, he had no choice but to agree.

The next morning, Xuan Ye invited Yun Jian to study the corpse together, hoping to find some clues.

Yunjian already knew about Wanshan's murder last night, so he naturally paid attention to it now.He pushed and pushed Xuanqing, but Xuanqing was still sleepy, still wanting to sleep with his arms around Yunjian's neck.

Yunjian opened the door, Xuanye saw Xuanqing who was leaning on Yunjian at a glance, and immediately said displeasedly, "Xuanqing is too nonsense, you still don't get off of you as a master!"

When Xuan Qing was yelled at by him, he immediately woke up, staring at Yun Jian in a daze.Yunjian frowned. "Xuan Qing is still a child, what are you afraid of?"

Xuan Ye frowned, "It's not too young, if you spoil him so much, you will spoil him sooner or later."

Yun Jian didn't speak, just patted Xuan Qing's face, Xuan Qing looked at Yun Jian with eyes blindfolded, Yun Jian saw that he was awake, turned around and said to Xuan Ye, "Brother, let's go."

Xuan Ye glanced at Xuan Qing, nodded, and the two walked towards the place where the corpse was parked.

The city lord knew that Xuanye and Yunjian were going to check the body, so he had already waited here.No matter what, you have to be a good official and leave a good impression.

Xuanye and Yunjian entered the room, waiting for the disciples there to come up to say hello, they nodded.Qingliu lifted the white cloth, and several people couldn't take it anymore and went out to vomit.

The city lord's face was also not good, but he resisted not going out, but covered the rotten smell with his sleeve.

Seeing that Xuan Qing's face was pale, Yun Jian asked him to go out, but Xuan Qing refused, "I want to be with Master." Long time no see, he was very reluctant to leave Master's side.Xuan Ye, who lowered his head to study the corpse, raised his head and glanced at the two people, then lowered his head again, the shadow in his eyes couldn't get rid of.

Yun Jian looked at Xuan Qing distressedly, Xuan Qing worked hard to overcome the nausea and fear in his heart, and helped by the side.

The body found in the suburbs is even more terrifying than Wan Shan's body.The blood from the dead body on the outskirts of the city was also drawn out, and the clothes were also stained with blood, but what was even more frightening was that his head, hands, and legs were all bent 180 degrees, and according to the scars, it was likely that the person was not dead. suffered this pain.

Xuan Ye frowned. If the dog hadn't barked and attracted people, Wan Shan would have died even worse.

"Brother." Yun Jian frowned and looked at Xuan Ye, who told the situation at that time.

Yun Jian turned over Wan Shan's body, looked at the almost rotting body over there, and expressed his doubts, "Brother, is it possible that more people were killed, but we didn't find it? "

Xuan Ye looked at the corpse that was almost rotting, and then at Wan Shan's corpse, "It's not impossible."

When the city lord heard this, he said, "Impossible, we haven't received any reports."

Xuanye stood up straight, and Qingliu closed the white cloth.Xuan Ye told his discovery. "These two people's spiritual energy has been sucked dry and they are both monks."

Yunjian also discovered this commonality.

Xuan Qing looked at the rotten corpse, and after seeing the ornaments on his clothes, he walked forward suspiciously.He picked up the man's pendant, looked at it, and his eyebrows became tighter and tighter.Finally Xuan Qing murmured, "Master, I know this person."

Yun Jian was a little surprised and asked, "Who is it?"

"Wan Yun." The Wan Yun who said he wanted to go to the city to buy some necessities for forging magic weapons, and Wan Yun never came back after he left.

"Wan Yun?" Everyone looked at Xuan Qing.

Xuan Qing spoke out about his experience with Wan Yun with some sadness and self-blame.

Xuan Ye thought of the restless bug when he passed by that inn, and asked, "Do you know who he has trouble with?"

Xuan Qing shook his head hesitantly.

Yun Jian knew what he was hiding when he saw his appearance.But Yunjian didn't want to force him if she didn't tell him when she saw him.Xuanye also knew what Xuanqing was hiding, so he didn't force Xuanqing, and said directly, "The city lord can ask someone to check, what kind of conflict did this person have with others in the largest inn in Huilan City?"

The city lord was stunned for a moment, and finally nodded.

"Junior Brother, come with me to that inn at night. If there are no accidents, the murderer should be in that inn." Xuan Ye said.

Yunjian knew that he had fought with the murderer and left stalking bugs on him, so it was not surprising to know where the murderer was, but the city lord saw that Xuan Ye knew where the murderer was so quickly, and immediately regarded him as a heavenly man .

"Let's go now." Yun Jian worried that the murderer would go out to kill again during this time.

Xuan Ye smiled, "Junior brother is always compassionate, since you want to go now, then let's go."

Yun Jian nodded. "I'm going too." Xuan Qing said.

Xuanqing said to go, Qingliu and Zisu both said to go, and finally only Li Yuan and others stayed.

Zheng Hongyue had long felt a powerful force approaching, and Wu Mu felt it too.Wu Mu, who was lying on the table, sat up and looked at Zheng Hongyue who was leaning against the window.

Zheng Hongyue looked downstairs, frowning when she saw a group of Taoist priests.

Wu Mu came over and looked downstairs, "It's Xuan Ye, who is that man next to Xuan Qing?" Wu Mu looked at Zheng Hongyue.

"Yun Jian, Xuan Ye's younger brother."

"Oh." Wu Mu nodded.

Xuan Ye's direction is obviously this inn, Wu Mu is a little uneasy.Wu Mu can be sure that he never revealed his identity at that time.What is Xuan Ye doing in this inn?

Zheng Hongyue felt Wu Mu's anxiety, and put his arms around his shoulders, "Don't worry."

Wu Mu couldn't calm down, and was very worried that Xuan Ye came to find Zheng Hongyue.But at this time, if the two sides fight, Zheng Hongyue will obviously suffer.

"I'll go down and have a look." Wu Mu turned to go down.

Zheng Hongyue stopped him, "Sit down and wait, it's okay." Zheng Hongyue pressed his forehead and said, "I will protect you."

Wu Mu looked into his eyes and said, "I want to protect you too."

"Maybe they didn't come to see us." Zheng Hongyue said.

Wu Mu hesitated for a moment, "But the person is not looking for us, but what?"

Zheng Hongyue hesitated for a moment and said, "Maybe they came to look for Lan Po. Do you remember when they entered the city carrying two corpses?"

When Wu Mu heard this, he suddenly remembered that Xuan Ye had indeed carried two corpses when he entered the city at noon.

Wu Mu felt that what Zheng Hongyue said made sense, so he decided to sit down and wait.If they didn't come to look for them, wouldn't they rush down and conflict with Xuan Ye, wouldn't they rush forward to die?

The city lord greeted his brother-in-law.Xuan Ye took people into the inn.

Most of the Daoxiu in the inn knew Xuanye and Yunjian, and they all came to say hello when they saw them.

Xuan Ye didn't know all of them, and those who didn't know didn't respond.

Seeing Xuan Ye's appearance, those Taoists didn't seem to come to stay at the hotel, but rather came to work.So everyone gathered around and asked if they could help.Xuan Ye thought for a while, "Just please stay in the inn, and no one should go out." Xuan Ye was not sure if the murderer was among them.

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know why, but they all walked outside and surrounded the inn.

Xuan Ye took out a box from his bosom, and Yunjian knew that this box contained a bug that could track people's whereabouts.Xuan Ye opened the box, and a bug flew out, which was somewhat similar to a seven-spotted ladybug.

It circled in the air, and then led Xuan Ye and others upstairs.

The paper harrier crushed the bugs hiding in his hair.If the bug hadn't been so restless just now, he still hasn't found the bug.Zhiyao felt more and more intense spiritual power, this is the person who fought against him last night, it seems that this is the bug and that person released it.

The bug suddenly hovered at the stairs and couldn't move forward, Xuan Ye frowned, took the bug back and went upstairs by himself.

Zhiyao came to Wu Mu's door, thought for a while, and chose to knock on the door.No one answered, Zhiyao frowned.When he was about to turn around and leave, he suddenly thought of something, and he came to the door of Zheng Hongyue's room.

When Wu Mu heard the door knock, he looked at Zheng Hongyue hesitantly. He heard someone knocking on his room earlier, but he didn't want to answer anyone at this time.But this man was not forgiving, and knocked on Zheng Hongyue's door again.

Wu Mu looked at Zheng Hongyue, and Zheng Hongyue shook her head, "It's not Xuanye. It's a paper kite." He felt different fluctuations in spiritual power, and Zheng Hongyue was no stranger to the spiritual power outside the door.

Wu Mu frowned, "Can't it be turned on?"

"Open." Zheng Hongyue said.

Wu Mu hesitated, Zheng Hongyue patted him on the head, "The one who comes is a friend."

Wu Mu was puzzled, but he followed Zheng Hongyue's words and opened the door.

When Wu Mu saw the person outside the door, it turned out to be a paper kite.

Zhiyao walked in, and Wu Mu closed the door.

Zheng Hongyue looked at Zhiyue, Zhiyue was silent for a while, and went straight to the point. "There is no conflict between us."

Zheng Hongyue didn't speak, just looked at Zhiyue, Zhiyue smiled helplessly, "Well, in order to show my sincerity, I will tell my purpose, I appeared in Huilan City because a demon I was guarding took advantage of me. I ran away when I didn’t pay attention. I followed him here, and then I fought against Xuan Ye during the tracking process. Now I am being targeted by him. I am not his opponent. And you are a demon, and you are not Xuan Ye’s opponent, but When you meet Xuanye, you cannot avoid fighting. So we have a common enemy. I think we form an alliance. Maybe we can survive the fight, no matter how bad it is, the chance of escape is very high."

Zheng Hongyue asked: "He is looking for you, you just need to tell him that you are not a demon, you don't need to cooperate with me at all."

Zhi Harrier shook his head, "He won't believe it. Besides, I want to take Lan Po away, not bring back his body. Lan Po killed many Taoist cultivators. In the end, Xuan Ye will definitely not Let Lan Po go. Therefore, even if he believes in me, we will have conflicts in the end. I cooperate with you, and I can resist Xuan Ye with you. I helped you, and you also helped me."
