Dafeng's Night Squad - Chapter 154
154 The truth (for the Alliance master “little Dolphin’s Ling Xiaochen”) _1
Xu Qi ‘an ran madly all the way, not daring to look back. He repeatedly jumped from roof to roof. This was the first time he had faced a high-ranked powerhouse, and his heart was still lingering with a strong fear.
If the Golden Lotus Daoist priest hadn’t sacrificed himself to save him, he would have died in the next round without a doubt, and he wouldn’t have had the time to use the spells in the spellbook.
Even with the help of Daoist priest Golden Lotus, the spells in the spellbook would most likely be unable to compete with the other party.
!!
Xu Qi ‘an had never felt such a heart-wrenching fear before.
“Who’s there?”
Two Watchmen standing on the roof noticed Xu Qi ‘an, who was wearing a black robe. One of them pulled out a standard long knife, and the other took down a Gong.
“It’s me,” he said. Xu Qi ‘an took off his hood and took out the gold medal.
“Lord Xu …”
Xu Qi ‘an was now an influential figure in the Yamen. First, two golden gongs were ” jealous ” of him, and then there was a dispute about killing a Vermillion Gong.
There was no one in the Yamen who did not know him.
Xu Qi ‘an took back the gold medal and coughed violently. A fishy smell came from the depths of his throat. He said in a deep voice, “”An assassin attacked the residence of the count of Ping Yuan. I was ordered to investigate the case and ran into the assassin.
assassins are dangerous. Don’t act rashly. Warn the others!
There was an assassin in the residence of count Ping Yuan again … The two men looked at each other and noticed Xu Qi ‘an’s bleeding hand and trembling arm.
With serious faces, they took out a copper pipe as thick as a baby’s arm from the leather bag on their waists, and with a gentle twist of their fingers on the fuse, the Qi was ignited.
Whoosh …
A dark red line of fire rose into the sky and exploded.
Seeing this, Xu Qi. an felt relieved. I’ll go back and recuperate. You guys wait here for help. If you meet the black-robed man … It doesn’t include me. Remember to avoid it. ”
“Yes.”
At this moment, Xu Qi ‘an saw an orange cat standing on the roof of the house in the distance, looking at him with deep eyes.
…. Daoist priest, where did you get this cat? I knew you would be fine. Xu Qi ‘an let out a breath again and kept jumping up and down from the roof. The orange cat followed behind him unhurriedly.
“Taoist priest, I’ve completely lost all thoughts of fighting just now.” Xu Qi ‘an said guiltily as they stopped in a quiet alley.
He believed that with Daoist priest Golden Lotus’s shrewdness, she would definitely slip away faster than him if she wasn’t confident.
The orange cat spoke in the human language, his tone tired. when an ordinary person sees a big insect, running away is an instinctive reaction. The difference between you and him is even greater than the difference between a cat and a big insect.
Daoist priest, is this really a good analogy … Xu Qi ‘an looked at the orange cat.
“If I’m not wrong, he’s the sealed artifact that was suppressed in sang po.” As Xu Qi ‘an spoke, he took out some medicine and gauze to bandage his hand.
Because he had taken too many strength pills, he was able to alleviate the weakness he felt after executing the heaven and earth slash. He didn’t feel the intense fatigue of his body being emptied.
“How do you know?” Daoist priest Golden Lotus said in shock.
on the day of the explosion at the mountain river temple in Yongzhen, the 300 Imperial Guards patrolling the area were all killed. They died in the same way, turning into dried corpses. Xu Qi ‘an said in a deep voice.
The Golden Lotus Taoist was silent for a moment. “Then you’ve guessed wrong. The one sealed under the Sang Bo is not the first director.”
….. If it was the first supervisor, he would not kill a small figure. The legitimate son of the count of Ping Yuan was extremely frightened before he died. He seemed to recognize the black-robed man … Unless the one who killed the Imperial Guards was the one who sneaked into sang Bo and blew up the mountain river temple in Yongzhen. However, this possibility had long been denied. It was impossible for an expert to sneak into sang Bo … Xu Qi ‘an sighed and said, ”
I know, and I have a vague guess in my heart. I just need to verify it.
The orange cat nodded and said, ” my Yin spirit has been severely injured. It’s very likely that I’ll fall. I need you to help me.
“Daoist priest, please speak.” Xu Qi ‘an was worried about how to repay the favor of saving his life.
“Help me find Luo Yuheng and ask for an energy gathering pill.” The orange cat spoke in human language.
“Luo Yuheng?” Xu Qi ‘an asked in confusion.
“She’s the head of the path of the human sect, barely considered my Junior Sister.” Daoist priest Golden Lotus said.
Daoist priest, your seniority in the earth sect is quite high … The dignified Dao chief of the human sect is your Junior Sister … A beautiful and mature Daoist nun? “Do you have a token?” Xu Qi ‘an asked.
just let her read the book, ” the orange cat revealed a human-like bitter smile, “”As for whether she can get it or not, that will depend on her mood.”
Depends on her mood? Xu Qi ‘an was dumbfounded.
the human sect and the heaven sect are like fire and water. The relationship between the earth sect and the two sects isn’t considered tense, but it’s not very good either. The orange cat explained.
‘Your Taoist sect is too cowardly …’ A family that loved and killed each other. “I’ll try it out tomorrow,” Xu Qi ‘an nodded.
“I’ll come and find you tomorrow,” the orange cat replied.
……
Jiang Luzhong squatted in the courtyard with a gloomy expression. He was holding a tiny piece of minced meat in his hand. The meat was very dry, like air-dried cured meat that had been ground into powder.
The ground was covered with a light brown powder.
Dozens of copper gongs surrounded the residence of the count of Ping Yuan, and seven or eight silver gongs assisted in the investigation. When they arrived, the residence of the count of Ping Yuan had been exterminated. None of the family members of the count of Ping Yuan, including the servants in the residence, survived.
The corpses died in the same way, like cured meat that had been air-dried for many years.
10,000 alpacas were running wildly in Jiang lü’s heart. He was also on duty when ping Yuanbo was killed.
“Jiang Jinluo, there’s a survivor in the house.” A silver Gong came out of the room and said loudly.
Jiang Luzhong’s face darkened. He crossed the threshold and entered the house. His gaze swept across the room and locked on to a woman who was hugging a quilt and revealing her snow-white shoulders. She had a frightened expression.
She was beautiful, but frivolous. She was looking at the night watchmen with fear in her eyes.
“Who are you?” Jiang Luzhong said in a deep voice.
“I, I’m Ping Yuan Bo’s concubine.” The woman said in a trembling voice.
“What did you hear? what did you see?” Jiang Luzhong asked again.
The woman had already learned about what happened from Yin Gong, who had awakened her. This was also the reason why she was in a constant state of anxiety. She was worried about her own fate, but at the same time, she was glad that she was still alive.
The woman shook her head and said obediently, ” I was having fun with eldest brother at that time, and then I fell into a deep sleep …
Jiang lutzhong scrutinized her. It was also common for concubines for sons to inherit their father’s business. The high-ranking officials and dignitaries of the current dynasty often took in concubines, and the age difference was huge. Once their father died, these concubines only had two choices: either work like servant girls or rely on the new heir.
Of course, this kind of thing was put on the table, so he would definitely be reprimanded.
It was just that no one would take it seriously, and they didn’t advocate it or care about it.
“Get her dressed and bring her back to the Yamen.” Jiang Luzhong walked out of the room after he finished speaking.
“Jiang Jinluo, we didn’t find the body of the first wife’s son of the count of Ping Yuan,” A silver Gong hurriedly reported.
Jiang Luzhong glanced at the brown powder in the courtyard with a deep gaze. “There’s no need to look.”
“My Lord, there’s a situation outside the window.”
Jiang Luzhong heard the noise and came to the window facing the bedroom. He saw that the window paper had two holes, and he could see the situation in the bedroom.
He looked down and saw two lines of shallow marks plowed on the ground.
“Besides the murderer, there were other people present at the time …” “Who was the first one to discover the abnormality in the residence of count Ping Yuan?” Jiang Luzhong asked after a long time.
“The gongs for the two of you.”
“Call them over,”
Very quickly, two gongs were brought over.
“Were there any suspicious people nearby when you discovered the situation?” Jiang Luzhong asked.
“We didn’t find anyone suspicious, and we didn’t discover the case.” The two copper gongs looked at each other.
what. ” Jiang Luzhong was stunned and asked hurriedly, ” didn’t you discover it …. Who is it?”
“It’s Xu Qi ‘an.”
Xu Qian … Jiang Luzhong’s eyes flickered.
…….
When Xu Qi ‘an returned to the small courtyard, he didn’t even take off his clothes. He fell asleep as soon as he fell asleep. Three hours later, he woke up naturally, sat cross-legged, meditated, and cultivated his Qi.
After completing two cycles, he opened his eyes in high spirits. Other than his face being slightly pale, he was in good condition in all aspects.
He left the small courtyard and rode straight to the city gate.
At this time, there was still an hour before they left the city gate. There was no curfew in the outer city, and the restrictions on the city gate were also very loose. Xu Qi ‘an used the gold medal to order the soldiers guarding the city to open the gate.
In less than two hours, he arrived at the Azure Dragon Temple. It was the time for the monks to get up and do their morning classes. The morning bell reverberated between heaven and earth.
Xu Qi ‘an tied the horse and walked down the stone steps to the Azure Dragon Temple. He received an unexpected piece of news.
“Abbot coiling tree has gone to the Western regions?”
It was still the round and smooth hengqing prison guard. He said expressionlessly, “”After you left that day, the abbot also left. I really don’t know the reason this time.”
…. How much of a psychological shadow do you have for me? Xu Qi ‘an grinned.
Abbot coiling tree had said that Azure Dragon temple’s duty was to keep an eye on the sealed artifact under the Mulberry Lake. He had revealed his intention to go west that day.
I wonder if the old monk will take a monkey as his disciple along the way. It will be interesting, hehe.
“I would like to trouble you with a matter.” Xu Qi ‘an said in a friendly tone.
The hengqing prison guard stared at him warily.
I want to see a portrait of Heng Hui. If the temple doesn’t have it, please find someone to draw it immediately. Xu Qi ‘an made his request.
Hengqing heaved a sigh of relief and told her to wait a moment.
After the time it took to make a cup of tea, he came out with a painting scroll and handed it to Xu Qi ‘an.
The latter took it and slowly unfurled it. In the painting was a monk in a blue robe. He had handsome facial features and a pair of bright eyes. He was a man with good skin.
As expected, it was him … Xu Qi ‘an confirmed that the black-robed man from last night was monk Heng Hui.
Even though her temperament had changed, her facial features were still the same.
Monk Heng Hui of the Azure Dragon Temple might have been involved in the Sang Bo case, and No. 6, Heng Yuan, had vowed that his Junior Brother was kidnapped by yazi.
According to the conversation between the DI son of the count of Ping Yuan and the black-robed man last night, Xu Qian immediately had a guess in his heart and was eager to verify it.
If not for his terrible state last night and his urgent need for rest, he would have chosen to leave the city overnight.
It’s really Heng Hui, it’s really Heng Hui … How could it be him? what does he have to do with the sealed artifact under sang Bo?”
“From the looks of it, he’s not the first supervisor. No wonder the current one isn’t anxious at all and even feigned illness.”
“But, if it’s not the first director, what could it be? The only possibility I can think of is that Heng Hui has the sealed artifact.”
“It’s impossible for a mere monk to plan such a shocking case. There’s someone behind him. North vanquishing Prince?”
Xu Qi ‘an left the Azure Dragon Temple, deep in thought.
After returning to the capital and the watchman’s Yamen, he headed straight for the noble spirit building to tell Wei Yuan the truth.

I’ve said before that I’ll compensate the Alliance master for the extra chapters after it’s uploaded.
In addition, I’ll leave the typos to you.
