Chapter 115
"Do you think he can find the Great Immortal Qingniu?" Shen Lian asked after a moment.
"It might be difficult for him to do it alone," said Ji Chengliang.
"Then you can give him some advice." Shen Lian said lightly.
Ji Chengliang's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he quickly leaned out of the tower and gave an order: "Have Zhang Qian, Li Shun, and Wei Yangang quickly apprehend the fleeing monk. They've almost run through half the city and still haven't caught him. How can we save the reputation of the Second Team?"
"Yes!"
There was a response from below the tower.
Soon, whistles were heard frequently, and the encirclement formation of the Feiyu Guards had obviously changed. Four torches rushed straight to the center from the tight periphery, and soon the sound of fighting was heard there.
After a while, the sounds of fighting died down, with only faint curses being heard.
"Your whole family is Buddha"
"Unlucky monk." Ji Chengliang couldn't help but curse.
Afterwards, the chaotic capital city finally quieted down under the cover of night.
Soon, a general flag officer presented a report: "Reporting to the commander, the captain, this roundup has captured five skinning ghost cultivators, beheaded sixteen, and four are still at large. A mysterious individual appeared in the roundup and is suspected to be connected to the four escaped. In addition, a total of forty-six Tianming Tongbao coins were found around the Zhaoyu Yamen."
"How much did we throw out in total?" Shen Lian asked.
"One hundred and thirty-six." Ji Chengliang said.
"Keep looking, they're all there." Shen Lian said.
"Yes."
The general took the order and turned to go downstairs.
The atmosphere then fell silent.
After a long while, Ji Chengliang said, "Sir, we can actually pretend that we know nothing. If we round him up like this, we will break off relations with the one in the palace."
Shen Lian looked up. The full moon was in the sky, and his thin plain clothes rustled in the cold wind. He spoke slowly, "Power, conspiracy, subterfuge, and factional strife—each of them will make our swords hesitate and become powerless. Today, the evil spirits outside Zhaoyu are rising to the sky, and demons are everywhere. If we do nothing, what will our soldiers think and imagine?"
Ji Chengliang was silent.
"I won't allow my soldiers to have any hesitation at the moment they chop down their swords. The filth and schemes can be in your and my hearts. My soldiers should be unaware of it if they can. If everyone has hesitation in their hearts, then on that day, the spirit of Feiyu will really be gone." Shen Lian said again.
"What about the commander?" Ji Chengliang frowned.
"Killing the minions of the Pogui Organization is a merit no matter what. At this juncture, no one can take away the position of the commander of the Feiyu Guard." Shen Lian said lightly.
"What are you going to do about the Green Ox Immortal? Are you really going to let that monk go find him? This guy has really screwed us over today." Ji Chengliang gritted his teeth.
"If Wang meets Wang, he will have to reveal his cards. Let the monk try first. At least he found the right position today, didn't he?" Shen Lian said with a smile.
"Boom~~"
At this moment, there was a sudden muffled sound from the ground.
The two men's expressions changed and they looked in that direction hurriedly.
In the center of the capital, there was a "crash" sound of something collapsing, and suddenly smoke and dust billowed, and a strong smell of corpses rushed up.
"Sir, it seems to be coming from the north gate of the imperial city. Something has happened." Ji Chengliang said hurriedly. After identifying it, he exclaimed in surprise: "It's corpse qi. Could it be that An Zhongjiu?"
"Someone is attacking the palace. Quick, protect the emperor!"
Shen Lian's face darkened, and he jumped out and rushed towards that location. After a few jumps, he disappeared into the night, silently, just like a sparrow.
Ji Chengliang gritted his teeth and hurriedly ordered to the people below the tower: "Quick, notify everyone immediately. Except for Zhaoyu, who is on duty, everyone will support the north gate of the imperial city."
"Yes!"
Soon the Feiyu Guards moved again, and torches quickly moved towards the north gate of the imperial city from all directions.
At the same time, at the door of Room 10 in Zhaoyu.
A Feiyu officer walked slowly towards Room 10. His footsteps were so light that if you looked closely you could see that his shadow was surprisingly light, as if the firelight could penetrate his body.
"Dong Dong Dong~"
The Feiyu officer knocked on the door.
At this moment, the execution was still going on in the room, and the sound of whips mixed with screams.
Soon the door opened, and a naked torturer looked at the newcomer with a puzzled expression: "Who are you? I don't think I've seen you before."
"That's right, you haven't seen it." The Feiyu officer smiled slightly, stretched out his hand, and saw the executioner collapse, and something in his mouth was grabbed out.
All this happened silently, and the limp body of the torturer was caught. The sound of whipping continued in the room, but he didn't notice it at all.
The Feiyu officer pushed the door open and walked in. Soon, muffled groans were heard from inside.
After a while, everything returned to silence.
At the door, Feng Jingyu noticed something was wrong and slowly raised his head to look at the Feiyu officer. His eyes suddenly lit up and he almost shouted out in surprise, "Master!"
The Feiyu officer smiled slightly and said, "You have suffered."
"Master, I never thought that you would come to save me." Feng Jingyu said excitedly. The moment he saw the person coming, he almost thought he had recognized the wrong person.
"You are lucky. You have a good chance tonight." The Feiyu officer said. His voice was indistinguishable between male and female, and it sounded like the clanging of metal.
"Master, take me away quickly." Feng Jingyu said.
"I can take you away, but you know the rules."
The Feiyu officer's expression turned slightly serious. "Now, please tell me, have you ever revealed any information of betrayal to the Holy Church to the Feiyu Guard?"
As he finished speaking, his eyes flashed with a cold light as he examined every detail on Feng Jingyu's face.
This is clearly a secret technique for identification.
Feng Jingyu's expression changed slightly, and then he said with great determination: "Master, I swear that I have never revealed a single word about my Holy Religion to Feiyuwei. If I break this oath, I will be punished by heaven and earth."
After a few breaths, the Feiyu officer put away the secret technique, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
……
Crematorium, Room 7.
Qin He and the big turtle ate their share, their mouths full of oil.
Qin He was chewing a thigh when he suddenly froze and started sucking his teeth.
"Master, what's wrong?" asked the big turtle.
"Hiss... I always feel like I have forgotten something, but I can't remember it." Qin He said.
"Then think about it in two days. You might remember it in two days." Big Turtle suggested.
"Well, that makes sense. Come on, eat more." Qin He nodded.
