Jing Hexuan was meditating on the side. He noticed the change in her breath almost as soon as she opened her eyes. He also opened his eyes and looked at her: "Is there any movement?"
In order to keep abreast of the news in Xincheng, they have been living in Jincheng recently, and her mind can just cover it.
"No, something happened over there." Shi Lingyao recounted to him what had just happened in Xincheng.
Jing Hexuan pondered: "It sounds like he was injured by something without realizing it. Their teammates said that Daxiong was briefly unconscious for a while?"
"Yes, you doubt it too?"
"Yes, there is still a short period of time between when he falls unconscious and when his teammates arrive." Jing Hexuan analyzed, "If there is something you want to attack, this time is enough."
Shi Lingyao added: "Only one strongman in that team is an ability user. As long as the person who does it is careful enough, it is normal for him not to be discovered."
"Shall we go there?"
Shi Lingyao shook his head: "Let's wait until daybreak. The people they send over there won't arrive until dawn. If something goes wrong, if we show up, we might alert the spy."
Jing Hexuan stood up: "Would you like some tea? Some red branches."
Shi Lingyao silently formed a red branch from the palm of his hand and handed it over. Jing Hexuan broke the red branch into strips and threw it into the hot water.
The faint smell of blood immediately faded and disappeared, replaced by a light medicinal aroma.
Shi Lingyao held the steaming cup and slowly took a sip of hot tea. He squinted his eyes in the warm steam and fell into deep thought.
As expected, people from Xincheng came early in the morning.
However, in order to rush for time, Xuxu, who is Sai Juechen, came in person.
Gongjian Wenyuan was also in the main room, and a group of people had a brief meeting.
"I deliberately tied Xu Yingying to Liu Gang by announcing her existence. Since Liu Gang is the leader of the village, I guess he should know a lot of inside information." Xuxu told her plan.
"Before I went out, their hunting team also set off. If nothing else happens, he will definitely take the opportunity to deliver the message."
Gong Jian Wenyuan nodded when he heard this: "Xuxu, this is a clever plan. The city lord mentioned Xu Yingying in the letter sent back before. As long as the court is not as slow as a pig, they will definitely take this second message seriously. .”
"We can't expect the court to help us. As long as their dispatch can cause trouble for Xu Yingying, we will be able to handle it easily."
Shi Lingyao stood up and looked at Jing Hexuan: "Go over there and see if the spy has successfully delivered the letter. Xuxu and I will go to the village to see what's going on with that big bear. "
Jing Hexuan nodded and looked at her: "I'll come back as soon as I go, please pay attention to your safety."
Shi Lingyao: "I know."
Jing Hexuan's figure disappeared immediately.
Shi Lingyao told Gong Jian Wenyuan: "Pay attention to safety on your side too."
The taciturn City Lord Gongjian nodded.
She hugged Xuxu from the waist, looked at her sideways with a smile, and smiled mischievously: "Do you want to experience the feeling of taking off?"
Xuxu had a bad premonition on her face: "What...!"
A black shadow flashed past, and the two people disappeared. Xuxu's confused voice was still there.
Gongjian Wenyuan: "..."
The people in the village felt that their village owner had just left, and in the blink of an eye two people appeared at the entrance of the village.
Shi Lingyao stood still, with a happy smile at the corner of his mouth, and held Xuxu in his arms with one hand without letting go.
Sure enough, as soon as his feet landed on the ground, Xuxu's legs softened and he knelt down directly on the ground.
But the hands around her waist held her firmly and lifted her up.
Xuxu stood unsteadily and bumped into her, her expression still a bit dazed.
Shi Lingyao said innocently: "I think you are also Sai Juechen, so you should be quite accustomed to this kind of speed, right?"
Xuxu came back to her senses and found that they had returned to the village, with a look of helplessness on her face: "I'm just an ordinary Sai Juechen, not... you?"
Xuxu was stunned after realizing it: "Aren't you?"
She always thought that Shi Lingyao was able to travel quickly because Jing Hexuan was with her. After all, her ability was wood sensing.
Now it seems that Shi Lingyao is clearly a dual-skilled person!
This is the first time she has seen someone with two abilities at the same time! He was actually right next to her!
Shi Lingyao chuckled, made a "shh" gesture with his index finger between his lips, and said with a smile: "Let me play with you, you brought me here."
Xuxu understood the implication of Shi Lingyao's words and nodded to show that she understood.
"The village leader is back!"
"Master, you are getting faster and faster, hahahaha, you just left a while ago!"
Hearing this, Shi Lingyuan looked at Xuxu and showed a tacit smile.
Xuxu had no choice but to laugh: "Haha, yes, it's better to exercise more... Are you ready over there?"
A villager came up to him: "Ready! I'm just waiting for you and Dr. Shi to come back!"
Shi Lingyao put away the expression on his face and returned to his cold and indifferent look in front of others: "I want to clear the place for the autopsy."
When the man saw Xuxu nodding, he immediately sighed and pointed to a nearby thatched house: "It's in that house, so I won't go there."
Xuxu nodded: "Go and do your work."
The man then ran away.
The small thatched house was in tatters, with a large piece of the roof missing. The headless body of the big bear lay on the ground near the corner, with its head placed upright next to it.
Xuxu closed the door with her hands behind her back.
A bloody red branch appeared in Shi Lingyao's palm. She brought the red branch close to the tiny red mark that Xuxu and the others found.
The soft tentacles of the red branch moved, not looking very motivated to work.
Shi Lingyao couldn't bear to say, "Tsk."
The soft tentacles of the red branch immediately came to life, and even extended half of it, wandering back and forth on the big bear's body for a long time, and finally returned to the starting position without giving up.
It was that little red mark.
Shi Lingyao translated Hongzhi's behavior: "It was looking for a better place to eat, and found that this was the only place in its body that smelled like zombie toxins."
Xuxu looked solemn: "It seems that it was indeed caused by this wound."
Shi Lingyao ignored the swing of the red branch's whiskers and put it back into the space of the red branch in his palm, saying, "Then the question is, is it an accidental mistake or intentional?"
Xuxu pondered: "Should we go and see where he was injured?"
Shi Lingyao nodded: "It's exactly what I want. I just listened to what they said. I also want to see the scene. Maybe I can find some clues."
She said and sighed: "It depends on luck. After a whole night, if the other party is smart enough, he will go back to the scene to check and there will be no traces left. Maybe it has been cleaned up."
Xuxu showed a guilty expression: "It's all my fault that I was in a panic and forgot about this. I should have gone and seen it for myself at that time."
Shi Lingyao shook his head: "Don't leave, it's pitch black. If there really is something that can infect zombie poison, wouldn't it be your own death if you ran there?"
She looked at Xuxu with a serious look on her face: "You are not allowed to have such thoughts in the future, do you hear me? Your own safety comes first at all times. As long as you are alive, everything is possible."
Xuxu could only nod: "Yes, I understand."
"Master of the Village! Doctor Shi! Hero Jing is here!" Someone shouted outside.
When the two of them heard the sound and came out, they saw Jing Hexuan striding over, his face a little ugly.
Shi Lingyao went up to him and asked, "A fight?"
Jing Hexuan shook his head, adjusted his breath, and then said: "I saw the person who came to get the letter."
