Chapter 157(1/2)

Zhao Langjiang and Li Qingcheng were not aware of this. After Xiao Jinyan reminded them, they looked at Mrs. Qi in the sarcophagus. Except that they were older and their skin was pale due to blood loss, their appearance was 80% similar.

Zhao Langjiang said, "There must be blood-related relationship between Mrs. Qi and Miss Yu."

If it was someone from the Ghost King Sect who kidnapped Yu Jiaxue, then Yu Jiaxue was most likely a sacrifice used to activate the blood sacrifice array.

Although this relationship was found, Yu Jiaxue had been missing for nearly two days. The Ghost King Sect should have brought her to Dingling Mountain, but the other party did not move at all, which made the three of them a little puzzled.

"We have two choices. First, wait here, and second, go back to the city to find the reason. Which one do you choose?" Xiao Jinyan asked.

Zhao Langjiang said, "Returning to the city, even if we find a problem, the premise is that the Ghost King Sect captured Yu Jiaxue. If the inference is wrong, she was captured by someone else, then how long she stays here will be futile."

Xiao Jinyan also said, "There is gloomy here. Apart from you, there is only a hundred-year-old female corpse, and there is not even a person to talk to. I can't stand it."

Li Qingcheng pointed to the sarcophagus, "If there is one more person to speak, you may not be able to stand it."

The three of them climbed up the stairs and prepared to go back along the cave. Strangely, the blood bats did not continue to attack, and the entrance to the bat cave that had been blocked before actually appeared in front of them again.

The three of them walked out of the cave and found it was already dawn. They couldn't help but say, "I just felt like I was staying in the mountain for an hour. Why was it already sunny?"

Xiao Jinyan said, "As the saying goes, the sun and the moon are long in the mountains. In the darkness, time passes very quickly, and nothing is wrong."

When I arrived at the foot of the mountain, the guide who collected herbs had disappeared. I had been waiting for a long time, but before the three of them, I went back first.

Li Qingcheng said, "The guide left. The terrain here is complicated and there are dense jungles. How can I return to the city?"

Zhao Langjiang smiled slightly and said calmly, "Follow me."

Li Qingcheng said, "I almost forgot that you are known as the Wolf of Hengduan Mountain. This small place cannot trap you."

Zhao Langjiang used to be a scout and even fought in the mountains and forests. He was very proficient in identifying directions and stealth tracking. The habit he developed over the years made him make many marks along the way on the way he came. Even so, when he returned to Jianmen, it was already noon.

The three of them were about to enter the city when suddenly a thunder sounded from the sky.

Boom!

The thunder sounded like it was blowing into the ears, shaking the eardrums of the three of them, and the corner tower on the city gate was struck by lightning and fell down.

Crash.

Under Jianmen Weng City, there is a Wudi Temple, which was hit by a corner tower. The hall collapsed with a bang and dust was flying. Only the statue of Guan Erye was unscathed and stood in a ruin, standing still.

The entire Sword Sect was also frightened by the thunder.

But when I looked up at the sky, the sky was clear and the cloudless. Even in Shu, this was a rare good weather.

In Jianmen City, a thunder came without warning, causing panic among the people in the city, and there were many discussions and rumors.

A very few people in the martial arts world know that this is not the sound of thunder, but the explosion caused by the internal force squeezing the true essence of the heaven and earth when masters of Tongxiang Realm fight.

Zhao Langjiang's eyes shone and said, "There is a master who fights!"

The three of them looked at the other side of the Kok Tower, which was empty and did not find any real energy flowing.

At the door of the tea shop, a tea chef said, "This is someone who offended the gods in the sky. This thunder is a warning to the people in the city, so that you can know that people are doing it and God is watching!"

Another tea chef said, "Brother Li, this is so rude, what do people do and God is watching?"

The man said before, "You know what I mean."

Another person said, "You saw that Guandi Temple had collapsed, but Guan Erye was fine. This is the second master who wanted to show his holy spirit and was ready to get rid of the evil people in the city!"

When the three of them heard someone chatting, they stopped and called out Dr. Tea. They spent more than a dozen copper coins to call a pot of tea and a dish of broad beans, and listened with their ears.

"What evil man?"

The surname Li Chake reached out and gestured, making a gesture of pulling the bow.

Dr. Tea brought the tea and said to the people who chatted with them, "Several customer officials, we have a small business management business, so we can talk about the affairs of the officials, don't discuss the affairs of the officials!"

When these tea guests heard this, they hurriedly stopped and felt depressed. Xiao Jinyan was suspicious and asked, "Brothers, what's going on with the evil people in the city?"

Seeing the three of them looking like they were depressed, the man smiled bitterly and shook his head without saying much. Instead, another burly man said with dissatisfaction, "It's not a matter of closure!"

Xiao Jinyan was intrigued and called Dr. Tea to serve another plate of peanuts and delivered them to them. He smiled and said, "Brother, we are just here to have some food. Please say, "

The burly man said, "To be honest, we are grain merchants in Shu, who specialize in the Yinyang line in Shu. In the past few months, the grain price in Yinyang City has soared, from 300 coins last year to 900 people in Douji. We jointly collected 50,000 kilograms of grain, documents, tariffs, and procedures. As a result, the goods have been here for almost half a month and have not been shipped out."

"Why is that?"

The burly man said with dissatisfaction, "Then we have to ask those officials. In order to manage those people, we spent more than 200 taels of silver. The day before yesterday, Zhang Qianhu's brother-in-law and Yujiabao married his daughter, we gave more than 100 taels of rice. We said that it was released yesterday, but his mother was trapped again. He said that a spy from Xichu came from outside Jianmen Pass, committed a case in the city and captured Yujiabao's daughter. Humph, to put it nicely, he was not interested in our batch of grain."

Xiao Jinyan said, "What does your food have to do with catching spies?"

"When the city was locked down yesterday, Yujiabao sent someone to buy our grain for 200 cents. We disagreed. A cousin was caught and beaten up by them, threatening that if he refused to sell the grain, he would not get a single child at that time."

"Yujiabao is the richest businessman in Jianmen. How could he like your little grain?"

The man said, "There are more than a few of us who were blocked in Jianmen Pass, but there are more than a dozen of them. We collected these grains at a price of 180 cents. If we sold them at a low price, wouldn't it be a waste of time? What's more, we borrowed money from Shu this time."

The tea chef surnamed Li said, "That's right? From Shuzhong to Yinyang, there is only one way. They sealed the Jianmen, either going forward or retreat. If they delayed it for ten days and half a month, even if they reached Yinyang, they would not make any profit."

"Who is this Zhang Qianhu? How dare you be so blatant?"

The man said, "They are very famous. I heard that there are people in the court, and they seem to be called the Grand Governor Yuwen."

Hearing Yuwen Tianlu's name, Zhao Langjiang's face turned gloomy and with a click, the teacup in his hand was crushed.

The tea chef surnamed Li sighed, "I originally thought we were smart enough. In fact, no matter how smart the businessman is, he can't beat a document from the court."

The man said, "Hmph, why didn't the thunder just now hit the sword guard and killed that evil man!"

At this time, I heard someone say, "Who is the evil man, who will kill him?" As he spoke, three officers and soldiers holding weapons walked in.

When the tea guests saw the officers and soldiers, they hurriedly kept silent.

Dr. Tea stepped forward to smooth things over, "Thank you for your hard work, sit down and have a cup of tea quickly and rest."

The head lieutenant said, "Old Cha, just now, I seemed to hear someone say bad things about Lord Qianhu?" He pointed to the man and said, "Did you say it?"

The man even smiled, "Master Bing, our whole family is counting on you to guard our safety, so how could he say bad things about adults?"

No matter how much they complain, these grain merchants are smart people. They have already mastered the ability to talk to others and talk to others when they see them. When they see the arrival of officers and soldiers, they quickly offer a lot of frank words.

The officers and soldiers did not pursue the investigation. They picked up the teacup, drank a few sips, and cursed, "Damn it, I'm so tired. We've searched for two days. When will it be the end? I haven't even seen a big fuck."

puff!

Zhao Langjiang farted.

When these officers and soldiers arrived, the noisy tea shops were silent and did not dare to speak loudly. Zhao Langjiang's fart seemed particularly harsh.

The captain frowned, "You put this fart?"

Zhao Langjiang shook his head, "No."

Yishang said, "Nonsense, I clearly saw you fart just now."

"You have a good look, what color do you have?"

Bingding said, "I smell it!"

Zhao Langjiang laughed, "I didn't write my name on that fart. How did you prove that I put it? Can you still locate it?"

The soldier suddenly stood up and was about to draw the weapon, but the captain stopped him. He stood up, walked slowly, and came to Zhao Langjiang's table.

Zhao Langjiang poured a cup of tea and drank it all in one go.

The captain said slowly, "No matter how I think you are, you are like a spy from Western Chu. Why, let's go with us?"

Zhao Langjiang didn't move at all.

"Are you going on it yourself, or are you going to let the brothers do it?"

Zhao Langjiang drank another cup of tea and stood up, "I'll go with you!"

"For your tactfulness, if you go to prison later, brothers will take care of you."

Li Qingcheng said, "Slow down!"

Seeing that this person was extremely handsome and handsome, the captain saw that he was not an ordinary person, and he was less proud of his words and said, "What's wrong?"

Li Qingcheng said, "I have a letter to you, I want you to see it."

The lieutenant said, "I can't read."

Li Qingcheng smiled and took out a silver note from his arms. These were left to him by Li Changsheng before leaving.

"Not a few words."

The captain followed Li Qingcheng to the door and reached out to catch the silver note, but found a sticky force sucking him, unable to move. In a moment, he trembled all over and sweated profusely.

Li Qingcheng said, "A little bit of a word, Mr. Bing, please be more comfortable."

The captain grinned, "Then you let go."

"You answer two questions first."

"Speak quickly, there is nothing to say..." Before he finished speaking, the captain's body was in a severe pain, "Master, please ask."

Li Qingcheng said, "First, does Jianmen Pass have anything to do with the grain transport fleets within the Pass?"

The lieutenant said, "This is the order of Lord Qianhu, we don't know."

"Second, you are the one who is searching for the city and the young lady of the Yu family?"
