Lantern fire incident?
Hearing that Guo was indeed related to the strange incident, everyone couldn't help but turn to look at him.
Gao Feng explained: "At that time, a strange lantern fire suddenly appeared in the Holy City. Once ignited, it would never go out. The flames spreading from it would ignite the surrounding combustible objects out of thin air, and even copy more of the same lantern. Strange fire is floating everywhere.
The corpse burned by this kind of flame will not be completely burned to ashes, but will only be scorched and then turned into a demon.
They will guard the strange fire in the fire scene and prevent it from being extinguished. There is also strange fire inside the corpse. In this way, they can hide themselves and find a place to spread again further away.
The incident at that time, whether it was the lantern fire or the charred mummies that were produced, was not too terrifying, but the threat it posed to the Holy City was huge. It was once rated as one of the most dangerous incidents among the evil. One of them, fortunately, was discovered in time and suppressed. "
"Strange fire, mummy?"
"Ignite it out of thin air and copy it?"
Others' scalps went numb when they heard it.
"If we leave it alone, it can burn the entire Holy Capital to ashes in just a few days."
Everyone listened to Gao Feng's detailed explanation again, saying that one or two alien fires alone were not a high threat, and even new aliens could resist or even extinguish them.
But for ordinary people and ordinary objects, it is considered immortal, and its core temperature seems to be extremely high, and it cannot be restricted by things like iron barrels.
"It should be this incident." Zong Qi affirmed, but he was still a little confused, "Master Zhenfu, why did you suddenly ask about this matter?"
Li Fan said: "It's nothing. When I came in, I remembered that I seemed to have seen that secret file before."
In fact, he has never seen the secret file at all, so saying this is just to prevaricate everyone.
Everyone suddenly understood and praised: "Brother Guanyun is really dedicated to his work. He doesn't forget his job even when he is having fun and relaxing."
"No, now we are pursuing and investigating to find the whereabouts of the demon cult demon!"
Li Fang ignored the jokes of his companions, and instead thought about the connection between the Demon Cult's choice of this place as their foothold and this strange incident eighteen years ago.
In fact, when I was worried about the transfer of the demon cultists, I didn't have time to think too much about why they chose Baihua Tower.
There are so many brothels in the Holy Capital, you can hide anywhere, there is no need to stay here.
If it's just a coincidence, then it's because I'm too worried.
if not……
The underlying reasons for this are indeed intriguing.
He told everyone this guess, but they said: "There are so many places where weird events have happened, and not all of them have problems."
"That's right. Speaking of which, which plot of land has no murders, which house or household has no deaths?"
"Probably just a coincidence."
That's because they don't have the eyes to see the truth and can't see the deeper things beneath the surface world.
Li Fan couldn't tell them the truth, so he could only say: "My intuition tells me that there must be something weird in this Baihua Tower. Even if there is no demon from the Demon Cult hiding here, it is still worth exploring."
"Huh? What do you mean..."
Li Chuan said: "Get started as soon as possible, don't think about fishing for big fish in the long run.
Wait until the night is quiet, and immediately check the room of Qin'er, who is suspected to be the shadow puppet man's lover! "
Everyone couldn't help but feel that he acted arbitrarily and acted as he thought, without any sympathy for the hard work of the people below him.
Maybe this young man just made a hasty decision just because he had a hot head and wanted to achieve success as soon as possible.
But the two general bannermen did not object.
At least this young man knows how to wait until the guests have dispersed and the crowds are quiet before taking action, instead of rushing into the busiest time right now.
Moreover, they have been tracking here for several days, but there has been no progress.
It would also be a good idea to take this opportunity to close the net and conduct in-depth exploration.
Soon after, the two commander-in-chiefs went to dispatch manpower, deploy defenses inside and outside, and make preparations before closing the net.
Li Fan just said it and made the decision to conduct a surprise inspection of Qin'er, but they had to consider carefully all the entrances and exits, and even check for deficiencies in the surrounding areas.
It can't be as simple as just rushing into the room with someone.
…
Baihua Building, in the elegant room of the inner courtyard.
Li Chuan, Fang Hong, and the senior management toasted and drank together, smiling and looking at the women in the room with admiration.
On the carpet pattern, which resembles blooming red peonies, the body is whirling and the tulle is lightly dancing.
The beauties all wore blouses as thin as cicada wings. They twisted around and swung their heels, and their fragrant skin seemed to be showing through the red gauze.
Their singing voices are melodious, their dancing sleeves are dancing, just like cherry blossoms on the mouth of sandalwood, pink nose leaning against Qiong Yao, pale white pear blossom face, light willow waist, indescribably enchanting.
When he finished his song, he turned around and bowed down Yingying, his eyes still focused on people.
"good!"
Li Ao clapped his hands and praised him sincerely.
"Nice dance."
Speaking of which, the place here is much more "meaty" than Yang Miao'er's place just now.
But it does not affect the singing and dancing skills. These eating guys work hard in every brothel.
Anyone who works hard deserves a reward. Li Fan didn't have much silver with him, so he casually took out a handful of golden melon seeds and took it as a reward.
"Thank you for your compliment, sir!"
The courtesan Xiang'er and several other sisters' eyes lit up.
They knew that even wealthy businessmen would not dare to use this kind of thing if they could afford it, because gold was not something that was in daily circulation, and using golden melon seeds as a reward was not something that ordinary people could do.
At that moment, her body was as soft as a bone and she was leaning against Li Chuan. She spoke softly and softly, and she was many times bolder and more enthusiastic than the previous daughters of Yang Miaoer's family.
Li Chuan could guess what these housekeepers were thinking. After all, they were getting older. When the day came when they actually received customers, they might be able to immediately become the top people in Pingkangfang, but their momentum after that was getting worse and worse. The more downward.
They also have to think about their future. Looking at someone who is handsome and rich, and is focused on displaying their skills, how can there be any signs of being a courtesan and a famous prostitute?
High-quality guests like yourself, Fang Hong, and Gao Feng are not something you can often see in a medium-sized place like Baihua Building.
However, he is not an ordinary person in this generation. He has long ago reached the state where he can live among thousands of flowers without even a leaf touching him, and he is completely unmoved.
He just had a brief chat with Xiang'er and others, and then started talking about the girls here.
Xiang'er and others thought Mr. Li was interested in the sisters here, so they introduced them enthusiastically.
But there is only one person Li Chuan really wants to ask, and that is Qin'er mentioned by the two commander-in-chiefs before.
"Sister Qin'er..."
When Xiang'er talked about this person, she couldn't help but look envious and said with a bit of longing.
"She met a wealthy man and spent three hundred taels of silver to redeem her life. Now she is boarding in the building, waiting for her to be a good person and live a good life in the future."
