When Xu Zhen saw that the woman in the fishing net was actually Yaolou's old mother, he instantly understood what was going on.
It turns out that Dongfang Meiyan used herself as bait and had been secretly observing Yao Lou's every move.
Those gentlemen in Liang Shang just now were obviously the agents of the God Catching Division.
It seems that I still underestimated Dongfang Meiyan. She had always failed to disguise herself as a man before. Maybe she was just pretending, pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger!
Unexpectedly, there is something really fishy in the demon building. This old mother... She was obviously following her all the way. It was not until she followed her that she was captured by Dongfang Meiyan and others.
Xu Zhen saw that the old mother had also changed into tight clothes to facilitate movement, and was also wearing a raincoat and a bamboo hat, obviously to hide her from others.
Moreover, looking at the bleeding from the corner of the old mother's mouth, she seemed to have suffered a severe setback, which is enough to show that she also has considerable kung fu.
Guala...
There was a muffled thunder in the air, indicating that the spring rain was about to become more violent.
In the heavy rain, Dongfang Meiyan remained unmoved, pointed a stone at her old mother, and shouted: "I finally caught you, tell me, what is your relationship with Fang Wubing?"
"Ah?" The old mother was so excited that she spurted out another stream of blood. After coughing several times, she said, "What is Fang Wu disease? I don't understand, you... who are you?"
"Divine Catcher." Dongfang Meiyan stared at her old mother coldly, "Stop pretending, if I can catch you, it means Fang Wubing has done all the tricks!"
"This..." the old mother said in surprise, "Is this a misunderstanding? I really, really don't understand..."
Uh-huh...
As a result, Dongfang Meiyan's stone struck the old mother's knee, causing her to scream in pain.
"ah……"
"Next piece," Dongfang Meiyan picked up a stone again and threatened, "I'll hit you in the eye, and you will be a blind old mother from now on!"
"Don't, don't... I said, I said," the old mother was completely frightened and quickly begged for mercy, "If you are really the master of arrest, then we are our own people. I... I am the inner guard!"
"..." Dongfang Meiyan's expression changed instantly, and she couldn't even weigh the stones in her hands.
At the same time, Xu Zhen trotted up to her and opened her umbrella to cover Dongfang Meiyan from the rain.
Dongfang Meiyan glanced at Xu Zhen, without rejecting or thanking him.
"Really," the old mother took out a token from her sleeve, "I am the inner guard, and my task is to manage the demon tower."
As she spoke, she threw the token out of the gap in the fishing net.
Xu Zhen quickly stepped forward to pick it up and handed it to Dongfang Meiyan for inspection.
After seeing the token, Dongfang Meiyan's face became more gloomy and a bit more solemn.
After all, the Internal Guard is an intelligence agency directly under the emperor, and even the Chief Inspector does not want to offend them.
"What's going on..." Dongfang Meiyan glared at her old mother and said, "What's going on? Are you also plotting against Fang Wubing?"
"I just said it," the old mother said with difficulty after regaining some of her color, "I have nothing to do with Fang Wubing. I'm just staring at this person to see what his intentions are."
Saying that, the old mother looked at Xu Zhen.
"Ah?" Xu Zhen grinned, and his head became more and more confused. He didn't understand why he was dragged from the inner guard, and then from the inner guard to himself.
"What do you mean?" Dongfang Meiyan also asked.
"You..." the old mother asked, "how do you prove that you are a member of the Divine Catcher Division?"
"I am Dongfang Enchanting's daughter," Dongfang Meiyan said, "The palm that hit you just now was a bloody palm. Do you need any other proof?"
"You... you are the Blood Evil... oh no... the daughter of the Eastern God?" The old mother frowned and said, "The flood washed away the Dragon King Temple, the Demon Tower... the Demon Tower is the intelligence station of Jinzouyuan, I must Any anomalies must be assessed."
"Entering the Academy..."
Unexpectedly, after hearing these three words, even Dongfang Meiyan, who is not afraid of anything, would also show fear on her face.
Xu Zhen knew that there was a record in "The Way of Demons". It was said that Jinzouyuan was a branch of the Privy Council and was mainly responsible for overseas intelligence and information work.
Since this information may affect Daxuan's international relations with neighboring countries, it is an extremely important and secretive department that is highly valued by the royal family.
The emperor's relatives were in charge of the Jinzouyuan, and the internal guards participated in the supervision. One can imagine their status.
Therefore, if the old mother in front of her is really the person in charge of Jinzouyuan Intelligence Station, then her level is not lower than Dongfang Meiyan.
"Abnormal..." Dongfang Meiyan asked, "What's abnormal?"
After asking, Dongfang Meiyan remembered something and immediately threw away the fishing net.
"The enchantress's surname is Kong," the old mother stood up with difficulty and said, "She is the descendant of the Kong family of the Banshee Kingdom in the East China Sea. Because the Banshee Kingdom killed my Prince Daxuan forty years ago, the battle in the East China Sea was almost destroyed by Daxuan. Genocide.
"In order to punish them, the royal family deliberately left the Kong family, and if a baby girl is born, she will be named Ji.
"So, we all have the responsibility to monitor every move of the Enchantress."
"Then..." Xu Zhen couldn't help but ask, "What if a baby boy is born?"
The old mother didn't speak, but through the coldness in her eyes, Xu Zhen still got the answer. I'm afraid, the baby boy has no chance of survival, right?
This is the feudal dynasty. The hatred of the ancestors must be punished by his descendants.
Ouch...
Thinking back to the spring breeze last night, Xu Zhen couldn't help but feel nervous. The enchantress should be fine, right?
"Answering the question yesterday," the old mother stood up, holding on to the wall, and continued to explain, "the enchantress actually made an exception for this young man, causing us to lose a lot of income. Therefore, we wonder if there is some conspiracy, that's why I followed this young master here. But I didn’t expect..."
The old mother's mouth was bleeding again, which showed how terrifying the bloody palm was.
"If that's the case, it's really a misunderstanding!" Dongfang Meiyan realized that she had made a mistake, and quickly took out a jar of pills from her body and handed them to her old mother, "Take one pill every day at midnight, and it will last for a month. You recover.”
"Thank you very much," the old mother said sincerely as she took the medicine bottle, "The Bloody Palm is really overbearing! I have gained some knowledge today."
"Hopefully...don't blame me!" Dongfang Meiyan bowed and clasped her fists in a rare gesture, and at the same time returned the token.
"No fight, no acquaintance," the old mother responded simply, "It was originally a misunderstanding. But...if Fang Wubing is really related to the Demon Tower, I hope Dongfang Shenping will tell the truth, and I will definitely cooperate."
"In that case, it's okay to tell you," Dongfang Meiyan asked, "I suspect that one of the four beauties in Yaolou is an old acquaintance of Fang Wubing. I wonder... can old mother check it out for us? ?”
"Oh?" The old mother was stunned, "Is there such a thing? It's impossible, right? To be honest, the four beauties are all the daughters of foreign enemies. They are under our strict surveillance every day. They... they How is it possible to have an affair with a gangster?"
"That's it..." Dongfang Meiyan frowned.
"If you have any doubts," the old mother said, "send someone over today, and I will hand over the detailed information of these four people to the arrester."
"That's very good, then I'll have to trouble my mother!" Dongfang Meiyan clasped her fists again.
After the old mother returned the gift, she staggered back.
Just when she was passing by a puddle, Xu Zhen said to Dongfang Meiyan: "Dongfang Shenqing, tell me, where is Fang Wubing hiding?"
"Huh?" Dongfang Meiyan was stunned and said to herself, don't you know where Fang Wubing is?
However, when Dongfang Meiyan looked at Xu Zhen, she found that Xu Zhen was not looking at her, but looking down at the reflection in the puddle in the distance...
