Chapter 55
The gray-white airship drove straight in, crossed the barrier outside the Sky City, and landed in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion.
It was late at night, and the city was peaceful and every household had already earned money. But the city lord's mansion was brightly lit.
In the center of the city lord's mansion, in the huge square, Zong Lin stood there in a black robe, beside him, piles of black-armored soldiers stood meticulously.
"Here you come."
At this moment, a gray-white airship flew over the square and slowly fell down.
soon.
The airship's hatch opened, and a tall middle-aged man wearing dragon-scaly black armor walked down.
"Senior Brother Long Yue!"
Zong Lin took a few steps forward and clasped his fists slightly at the middle-aged man.
"Junior Brother Zonglin, please trouble you."
The middle-aged man Long Yue nodded with an indifferent expression. He glanced at the soldiers around him and walked slowly towards Zong Lin.
"Senior brother, please come with me!"
Zong Lin said, while asking for help, he walked forward with Long Yue.
He knew that Long Yue's purpose this time was to investigate the cause of Meng'a's death, and that Zong Lin also had to cooperate to the end.
After all, the genius disciple of the central temple was killed in the city under his jurisdiction, and he could not escape responsibility.
But he didn't expect that the above report was so fast that he sent someone over in less than a day, and the person who came was Long Yue.
Long Yue is also a disciple of the Central Temple. He is even older than Zong Lin and is considered Zong Lin’s senior brother. He has been staying in the Central Temple for so many years and is a kind of ascetic person.
He is dedicated to seeking the truth and is less familiar with foreign affairs. He will only take a task by chance to solve some difficult problems. Therefore, although Long Yue's reputation is not very good, his strength is very strong.
If it weren't for Meng'a's accident this time, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been sent here.
"Meng A Junior Brother Meng A is dead. Several elders in the temple are very angry and attach great importance to this matter." Long Yue followed Zong Lin and said in a voice transmission.
"This time I was sent here to investigate the reasons, and on the other hand, I also took over the task of Junior Brother Meng A to go to Nanhuang City to solve the troubles of those outsiders!"
Zong Lin was slightly silent when he heard this.
This happened in the city under his jurisdiction, and even under his nose, and when it was mentioned at this moment, he naturally had nothing to say.
“It’s right in front.”
After a moment, Zong Lin brought the dragon to a ruin, pointing at the ruins and said, "That's where the war is."
"Originally, it was the residence of a housekeeper under my command, but for some reason it triggered a battle. Junior Brother Meng A disappeared out of thin air during the battle."
"Looking at the traces, it was moved by someone in a great way to move this space, and it is impossible to investigate where it is."
In front of me was the residence of the old butler, but now it has turned into ruins. At the center, there is a huge blank space, dazzling and conspicuous.
"Didn't there be any trace left?"
"No!"
Zong Lin shook his head, "All traces have been erased, and even before the battle, they were isolated from the formation. If the formation was not broken, they would not be able to be noticed at all. It is also my responsibility."
Long Yue didn't say anything, slowly walked to the ruins, gently tugging his palm, as if sensing something, but he quickly frowned.
"Sure enough, there was no breath or trace left."
"The destruction is very thorough, and it is impossible to reverse the time and space reduction."
He also knew that the murderer would not leave any traces, and he just wanted to try it here.
Paused.
Long Yue said again: "I heard from the elders that when my junior brother discovered this place, there was still a living mouth?"
"Yes!"
Zong Lin nodded, "That's my housekeeper, he's still alive."
“Is there any useful information?”
"No."
Zong Lin shook his head, "My housekeeper... is already crazy, his soul is in chaos, his memory is incomplete, he has no memory of the time, and he can't ask anything."
Speaking of this, Zong Lin sighed slightly in his heart.
He knew that his butler was greedy, but this was not a big problem. Moreover, the old butler was greedy and had a sense of greed.
The key is to be loyal.
So Zong Lin always turned a blind eye and did not pursue it too much.
Now that the old housekeeper is involved in this matter, and he is completely crazy, he naturally feels a little reluctant, but he can only sigh lightly.
"Please take it over to meet that housekeeper!"
Long Yue said softly.
"Senior brother, please come with me."
Zong Lin raised his hand and walked slowly towards the residence where the old butler was now.
Soon, the two arrived at a courtyard.
When I opened the door, I saw a slightly fat old man with messy hair in the courtyard under the night sky, lying on the grass in the yard, with long saliva dragging his mouth, his eyes were turbid, and his clothes were messy.
Alas ~
Zong Lin shook his head slightly in his heart, "Senior Brother, he is my housekeeper, Ningde."
"Are you crazy?"
Long Yue was extremely indifferent, his expression did not change at all, "I need to carefully check his memory."
"Although I'm crazy and have a mess of memory, sometimes I often remember the most important information in my heart, and I'm best at this."
"However, this is still subject to my junior brother's permission."
Long Yue said, but there was no slightest bit of inquiries in his words, and he was very cold.
"It's okay, please, senior brother!"
Zong Lindao, he knew that Senior Brother Long Yue was a true ascetic, not good at communicating, and was cold-hearted.
"kindness!"
Long Yue walked forward, gently placed his palm on the head of the old butler lying on the grass, and then gently exerted force.
Wires of white light penetrated from his palm, entered the old butler's mind, and tried it. This is a method of entering the mind, very unpopular and has limited functions, but it is very suitable to use it here.
The old butler was already crazy and would not resist at all, so it went smoothly and invaded the depths of the old butler's heart.
“It’s so chaotic…”
Long Yue's eyes fluctuated slightly, and the old housekeeper's mind was in chaos. Countless broken memories rippled like storms, and there was no valuable thing at all.
At least, on the surface, it is invisible.
"Into the heart~"
Long Yue shouted softly in his heart. In an instant, the old housekeeper screamed and cried, "Give me aside... sir, sir... it's you... why did you kill me... I don't know..."
"Ring, ring~"
After a crazy talk, the old housekeeper lying on the ground suddenly held his right index finger tightly and shouted, "Ring, my ring."
But there was nothing on that finger.
"Ring? This is the most important information and memory in his heart?"
Long Yue and Zong Lin were slightly stunned, clearly without any sign of anything, and even without aura.
"No, there is something strange about this finger."
At this moment, the old housekeeper pointed out that a little bit of light appeared, and then he saw a ring-shaped object appearing out of thin air.
"Call yourself?"
Long Yue muttered to himself, and his reaction was extremely fast. In an instant, the old butler's finger was cut off directly, and the ring-like thing naturally fell into his hands.
After doing this, he waved his hand and a green light filled with vitality fell, and the old housekeeper's broken finger grew back.
In the round trip, in less than a second, the old housekeeper was almost in a madness and felt a pain, and then nothing happened.
"ring?"
"What ring is this? Is it related to the person who killed Junior Brother Menga?"
Zong Lin also walked up, his face a little bad.
"have no idea!"
Long Yue shook his head, looked at the ring in his hand, and whispered: "It seems to be some kind of treasure. Have you heard from this butler?"
"No, he didn't even have this thing before." Zong Lin said, knowing everything about the old butler.
"It seems that this thing has been obtained recently, or is it the most precious memory in his heart..." Long Yue whispered to himself, "It seems that it is indeed doubtful."
As he said that, he turned around and looked at Zong Lin, "Junior brother, I need to study this ring, so..."
"Senior brother, just keep it."
Zong Lin hurriedly said, no matter what treasure this ring is, it is a hot potato, and he will not covet anything. Moreover, what good thing can a treasure in the butler's heart be.
"Then I would like to thank my junior brother."
Long Yue nodded, looked at the ring in his hand a few more times before putting it away.
soon.
The two left the place and went to investigate. In the place, only the old butler Ning De was left, lying on the grass in a mess, talking crazy.
"Let me go, let me go..."
