When the boss heard that there was something behind his back, he immediately panicked. He stretched his hand to his back, groped for a while, and finally caught the same thing behind him.
He immediately pulled it hard and brought it to him with an angry face. When Dingqing saw it, his heart suddenly beat violently. What he was holding in his hand was actually a child's head with a scorched face, tattered and charred skin, and the whole face. His face wrinkled up, looking quite ferocious and terrifying.
"Ah!" He yelled and was so frightened that he threw away the things in his hands. Cold sweat continued to break out from his forehead. This time he really believed that there were unclean things here.
"Damn it! How dare you come out to scare me!" the boss shouted in a trembling voice, "Look if I don't find someone to come here, I will turn this place upside down."
"Let's go! Leave quickly!" He also knew that he couldn't stay in this place, so he turned around and looked at the person, only to find that the other person was standing motionless, his eyes were protruding and bloodshot, and his face was as pale as a dead person. That way.
"Hey!" the boss yelled, then raised his hand and patted the man's face, "Listen to me and leave quickly!"
The man still stood there blankly, motionless.
Only then did he notice two small figures crawling out from behind the man's shoulders. The man tilted his head, and his skin was gradually turning black.
The boss was so frightened by this scene that his legs trembled. He knew that this guy was probably hopeless. Without saying a word, he ran towards the entrance. He secretly regretted in his heart that he was planning to come here to make a fortune, but he didn't. Surrounded by these ghosts and several people died, it was not worth the loss.
He ran tirelessly for a long time, and finally realized a problem. No matter how he ran, he could not get close to the place where he came in, or even directly climb over the wall.
And no matter how many times he ran, he would always see the headless, charred body halfway, standing straight next to the ruins, and the body automatically turned towards him.
Although he has no head, he still shouts in a deep voice, "Big brother! Big brother! Come play with me."
Seeing that the scene was getting even weirder, the boss covered his head with both hands, took a few steps back, and fell to his knees directly on the ground. His body kept shaking, and he cried loudly, "Let me go! Let me go! I really shouldn't have come. This offends you!"
He leaned over and lay there for a long time, surrounded by silence. Looking at the movement, he vaguely felt that nothing happened, so he slowly stood up and looked forward.
On the far wall, the dark night sky was filled with stars, and he felt a moment of peace.
But at this time, a charred human face suddenly appeared in front of him. It looked extremely terrifying, with protruding eyeballs, a face full of bones, and the rotten flesh was slowly being pulled down.
The boss's blood pressure increased sharply, and he felt darkness in his vision, and he immediately fainted. At this time, a black breath penetrated from his arm, making that arm appear faintly black.
"Big brother! You are finally tired and can play with me!"
In the early morning of the next day, when the sky was dark, Li Huaiyun stood up from his two smooth bodies. Today, he still had to report to the Demon Slayer Division and read the files. Moreover, he had to be responsible for analyzing the case, so it was not convenient to spend more time here. Make a stay.
He turned around and glanced at the oiran ladies lying on both sides, covered them with quilts, then got up and left the Jiaofang Division.
This night was another waste of his energy. Fortunately, he was able to improve his practice slightly. He found an early stall and started enjoying breakfast.
At this time, a burst of neat footsteps came from far to near, trotting towards the stall where he was. A large group of fully armed soldiers, as well as the leading soldier on horseback, were heading towards the north gate of Kyoto.
Li Huaiyun looked at the soldiers passing by with a little curiosity, and wondered for a while, what was the purpose of such a large formation? Could it be that something big happened?
Why did he feel that this matter was far from as simple as he thought.
At this moment, the stall owner took the initiative to come up and sit at Li Huaiyun's table. His eyes followed the passing soldiers and looked into the distance.
"Store! What's going on?"
The shopkeeper glanced at Li Huaiyun in surprise, then put his hand to his mouth to signal him not to speak.
After waiting for those soldiers to pass by, the shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Li Huaiyun, "Prince Lin's army passed by, how dare you make a loud noise!"
"Ah! If it's not just King Lin's army, why don't you dare to make a loud noise?"
"Before you knew it, there were people who simply called people stupid because they spoke loudly, and later died young. And then there were other gangster regulations."
"Wang Lin wants to rebel?"
When the store owner heard this, he became even more panicked. He hoped to sew Li Huaiyun's mouth shut immediately. He said carefully, "If you have nothing to do, just finish your meal and leave. The next customer will have to eat here." .Are you talking like this to harm others?"
"Didn't I just tell the truth?" When he heard this, he shook his head helplessly and started to drive people away?
The shopkeeper turned around, but was grabbed by Li Huaiyun, who put a few taels of broken silver on the table, and then secretly asked, "What's going on? Why did King Lin's army never pass?"
The shopkeeper didn't seem to want to say anything, but because of the temptation of the money, he asked, "What's wrong? What do you want to know?"
Li Huaiyun clasped his hands in his fists, then bowed and asked softly, "Shopkeeper! What's going on? Why are King Lin's troops not stationed at the border, or guarding important military places in various parts of the Zhou Dynasty?"
The store owner was not surprised at this, "Who knows this? A notice was issued before, saying that King Lin needed to train soldiers in Kyoto to guard the safety around Kyoto, so they were stationed ten meters outside Kyoto. A few miles away, I occasionally come to Prince Lin's Mansion, but I don't know exactly what I do."
Li Huaiyun knocked on the table gently, thinking about what on earth these soldiers were doing in the house.
Prince Lin has always been calling himself a border general and doing a lot of work for the emperor. With such behavior, it is almost impossible to imagine that this guy has any impure motives.
But this is the disguise, and many people know this situation.
Li Huaiyun also heard some other things from the store owner. From the appearance of those soldiers in Kyoto, they were very suspicious and must have some ulterior motives.
Judging from the large number of people, this matter must be very big. Li Huaiyun thought for a moment and had a guess in his mind. Could it be that he was digging a tunnel?
He shook his head, as if it was impossible, he stood up and left, heading towards the Demon Slayer Division.
As soon as Li Huaiyun stepped into the Demon Slaying Division, he felt something different. Every demon hunter passing by would say hello to him, which made him feel a little proud in his heart.
He is still the lowest D-level monster hunter, but his prestige is higher than that of the four helmsmen.
On the way to Jiange, he met other people and informed Li Huaiyun that Sikyong was inviting him to the star observatory and had something to discuss in detail.
In the Demon Slayer Division, Li Huaiyun's walking posture became more relaxed, and he felt quite comfortable.
He went alone to the observatory where Sikyong was sitting and opened the curtain. Sikyong was sitting on a chair made of rosewood, with lifelike landscape shapes carved on the handle of the chair.
He had always been curious about this. If it was carved like that, would the chair be unstable and collapse at some point?
I can’t imagine that scene!
At this time, he noticed that there was a back figure standing on the right side, wearing a yellow dress, wide sleeves, moccasin boots, and a yellow cloth bag on his waist. From the outside, it looked like there was something in a bamboo tube.
The woman was small, with a fairly average build, which made her appear relatively petite.
As soon as he opened his mouth, there was that crisp voice with a slight baby tone.
"Uncle Qin, when will that person come? He has been waiting for so long. If it really doesn't work, I will check it myself!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Huaiyun walked up, bowed his hands to Qin Gang, then bowed and saluted, "Sikyong!"
Before Qin Gang could speak, the woman turned to look at him behind her, her face suddenly changed, and she pointed at Li Huaiyun angrily, "What? It's you, the thief!"
Thief! Li Huaiyun suddenly raised his head and saw the true appearance of the woman. She was actually the woman who was fighting the injustice in the house!
"It's you!"
The woman looked at Qin Gang and said, "Uncle Qin, is this the monster hunter you mentioned who can solve cases like a god?"
"Do you know each other?" Qin Gang also looked confused. He remembered that these two people had never met before. Zhou Xiaolin had not been to the Demon Slayer Division in the past few years.
"It's not just acquaintance, but also hatred. This person is a thief!"
Li Huaiyun immediately refuted, "Hey, don't talk nonsense! Didn't I explain it very clearly before? It was just a joke at that time, there was no such thing!"
"Hmph, you can make a joke out of something like that. It shows that you are nothing but a thief. Neither you nor that woman is a good person!"
Zhou Xiaolin highlighted an unreasonable point.
"Don't talk nonsense,"
"When did I talk nonsense!"
The two suddenly fell into a quarrel. All kinds of elders appeared on the observatory. They died in different ways and their ethics and morals were lost.
"Quiet! Shut up, everyone!" Qin Gang slammed the table, and tea sloshed out of the tea cups. He was confused, "What on earth is going on?"
"Sikyong!" The two of them stepped forward, clasped their fists and bowed, both wanting to explain themselves.
"You speak first, and then you speak after you finish!" Qin Gang pointed at Li Huaiyun first, and then at Zhou Xiaolin.
After the two of them finished talking about the matter, they glared at each other. The content was similar, but when it came to their own aspects, there was still a big difference.
"What happened to me at that time! Isn't it just a misunderstanding?" Qin Gang picked up the tea cup, "Now that you two have chosen to investigate this case, then put aside the misunderstanding and investigate the case for me."
Zhou Xiaolin immediately clasped her fists and said, "Sikyong, I don't want to handle the case with this pervert, please send someone else."
"Sikyong, I have the same idea. At worst, this case will be investigated by her and I will not participate."
"That's best. If you weren't from the Demon Slayer Division, I would have captured you, the perverted thief."
"Hmph! You are so bold! Come on if you have the ability!"
"you...!"
Qin Gang put down the tea cup, "Okay! Have you had enough trouble? This case will be investigated by the two of you. If anyone doesn't want to investigate or cooperate with the other party, then don't investigate at all and go to patrol the city gate for me. "
The two of them looked at each other and turned away. Since Sikyong had said this, they were no longer arguing.
"Okay! You guys can get to know each other on your own," Qin Gang raised his hand and stretched out three fingers. "I'm telling you, three days. The deadline for this case is three days!"
"If the case cannot be solved in three days, then I will let you clean the backyard of the Demon Slayer Division for a month."
Li Huaiyun frowned. There was no time limit for investigating cases before. Why now, it takes three days to solve the case?
He asked, "Sikyong, why do you require three days for this case?"
