In the inn room, Tantai Xuan heard that Mu Qing was going to look for Huang Xing with Zhu Xiao, and frowned: "Now Zhou Qian and the others are still hiding in the dark. If you show up in such a big way, even if they don't know your true identity, Due to your identity, I may also take action against you."
Mu Qing said: "With Ling'er with us, Zhou Qian won't be able to hurt us so easily. If we let them continue to kill us, the situation will become even more passive."
Mu Qing looked at Tantai Mingyu. Tantai Xuan agreed to help Zhu Li deal with Zhou Qian and others, but Tantai Mingyu did not.
Mu Qing told Tantai Mingyu a few places he was going to immediately, and said, "Brother Mingyu will wait for us to leave, and then follow us secretly."
Tantai Mingyu's eyes lit up: "Those people like Zhou Qian may indeed be targeting us. This is an opportunity."
Mu Qing smiled and said, "If he could guess that I am Mu Qing, he would definitely not be able to help it."
Tantai Xuan frowned and reminded: "If you really encounter them, don't be brave and send a signal immediately."
"rest assured."
After Mu Qing made an agreement with the two of them, he left through the back door of the inn, and Zhu Xiao in disguise was waiting nearby.
When Zhu Xiao saw the three people appearing, he nodded slightly, turned around and led the way. The group of people successfully arrived at Linshui Street at the junction of the south and east of the city.
Zhu Xiao had secretly visited many places these days and narrowed down where Huang Xing might be hiding near Linshui Street.
Before Mu Qing came to Linshui Street, he thought Linshui Street wouldn't be too big. After all, it was just a street. But when he actually stood on the street, he found that he couldn't see the end of the street.
According to Zhu Xiao, because there is the only above-ground river in Nangui City next to Linshui Street, this street has become the most prosperous street except Nanwang Avenue where the city lord's palace is located.
There were many shops on both sides of Linshui Street. Mu Qing followed Zhu Xiao silently and went to several shops.
Zhu Xiao is very cautious. Before going to those people on the list, he will often go to one or two unrelated shops first, and then go to the real owner.
And the shops opened by these owners are also all kinds of strange, selling all kinds of things. There is absolutely nothing in common between these people and Huang Ding.
"They have cultivation and their own shop. They are considered to be the middle class of Nangui City. Why do they take the initiative to get involved in the Zhu family's struggle?"
Mu Qing asked Zhu Xiao.
Zhu Xiaoyi grinned and said with a smile: "You think they are willing? The way to survive in Nangui City is always strength. Their cultivation path has come to an end. What do they rely on to be able to gain a foothold in the city and have their own appearance? ?」
Zhu Xiao pointed to the north, "It can be said that the backers of all those who have a foothold in Nangui City are at the northern end of the Nanwang Mountains, in those three mountains. If they don't want to do things for their second brother, there are many people who are willing to take their place. "Xiushu.com
Murong Jing was puzzled: "Don't they know that the head of the Zhu family actually has a higher status than the great elder and Zhu Zong?"
Zhu Xiao glanced at Murong Jing and said helplessly: "What can they do if they know better? City Lord Zhu has a high vision, and the Great Elder doesn't care about these casual cultivators who can't even reach the realm of mortal transformation. After all, he is the head of the Zhu family. If he is willing If you offer them an olive branch, who wouldn’t want to grab it?”
"So many people have died..."
Zhu Xiao was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said: "There are indeed many people who died, but there are even more people waiting for the opportunity. This is the reality of the casual cultivators in Nangui City."
As the group said this, they had arrived at the busiest area of Linshui Street.
Zhu Xiao looked around, looked more seriously, and said, "The person I took over has a very good relationship with Huang Xing in private, maybe..."
Zhu Xiao was stunned for a moment, looking somewhere in front of him without speaking.
Mu Qing followed his line of sight and saw a group of people gathered outside a shop. Inside, the guards of the City Lord's Mansion could be faintly seen.
"Oops, he must have been killed."
A few people calmly separated the crowd and looked forward, only to see the guards of the City Lord's Mansion escorting a group of people out of a medicine shop. They were old and young, and they seemed to be a whole family.
Someone in the crowd asked: "The medicines Master Zhong sells are all good, why do you want to arrest him?"
The leading guard
The leader looked for the sound, but couldn't find the speaker. He said coldly: "Zhong Ping is involved in the recent murders. He took his family to the city lord's mansion to protect them."
Behind the crowd, Zhu Xiao looked a little ugly and said, "It's Shen Ze's people. The city lord reacted really quickly."
Mu Qing looked at the drug store owner named Zhong Ping who looked calm and said, "As long as he is not killed, there is still time."
On the second floor of the teahouse not far away, Zhou Qian silently looked away and said, "Is there any news from the Xishan Realm?"
Zhou Ling said in a deep voice: "The head of the family guessed it right. Not long ago, people from the Taoist sect really appeared in the Xishan realm. They were Zheyun and Zheyan, the masters of the Taoist sect's Tianzong."
Zhou Qian frowned.
The Zhou family had little contact with Taoism, but they had heard of Zheyun's reputation.
Zhou Ling also felt that it was a bit tricky and hesitated: "If the other person following him is Zheyun, we may have a hard time succeeding."
Zhou Qian looked at the girl next to Mu Qing, frowned and said, "Who is this person?"
Zhou Ling: "...the relationship between Zhe Qing and Zhe Qing pretending to be Mu Qing is brother and sister. Maybe he is a real Dao Sect disciple?"
Zhou Qian's dissatisfaction was palpable.
Zhou Feipeng and the other two hurriedly said: "Our Zhou family is in the far west. Without the intelligence provided by the Lin family, we would really know very little about these forces."
"The Lin family?" Zhou Qian sneered, "They are just a group of idiots who have been deceived time and time again."
Suddenly, Zhou Qian raised his head and looked in a certain direction, raised his eyebrows and said, "They should have discovered Fei Peng and Fei Ying."
The two brothers Zhou Feipeng looked at each other, gritted their teeth and said, "Don't worry, Master." xь.
"Well, go ahead and introduce them all into that formation."
On the street, Mu Qing felt strange and wanted to turn around, but Zhong Ling'er quickly held him back.
"Someone is watching us."
"where?"
"It should be that teahouse."
The exchange between the two did not avoid Zhu Xiao. Zhu Xiao was stunned for a moment and asked, "Who is spying on us?"
Mu Qing answered truthfully: "This is the murderer that your city lord has always wanted to arrest."
Zhu Xiao was shocked and resisted the urge to turn around. Mu Qing said, "Don't worry, we can just do our own thing."
"My own business?"
There are many routes from Linshui Street back to the City Lord's Mansion, but there is only one shortest one. With Zhu Xiao leading the way, Mu Qing waited in advance on the only way to escort Zhong Ping's guards.
When this group of guards appeared in sight, they took action without any hesitation.
"who is it?"
The leader of the guard had reached the peak of his cultivation and was no longer weak against the casual cultivators in the city. However, the moment he saw the sneak attack, his face immediately turned pale.
Wearing a mask and a gray robe, isn't this the murderer that everyone in the City Lord's Mansion has been hunting for?
"Bang~"
Just being scratched by a corner of the gray robe, the guard leader felt that his internal organs were about to burst, but before he could rejoice as he flew backwards, he was enveloped in a blood mist.
When the blood mist dissipated, Zhong Ping's family had all disappeared. They seemed to have been shocked into a blood mist, leaving only a group of guards staggering and fainting. XiuShu.com
In a secluded corner, Zhong Ping's family lay on the floor.
The corners of Zhu Xiao's mouth twitched a few times.
Mu Qing said: "Find a secluded place and ask him."
Zhu Xiao worked very quickly and quickly found a small courtyard. He fed Zhong Ping a recovery pill and said, "You guys hide it later. He is suspicious by nature. I can't explain your identity." "
Mu Qing was about to nod when he suddenly looked towards the courtyard door.
"What's wrong?" Zhu Xiao quickly stood up.
Soon, there were dense footsteps, which seemed to surround the small courtyard.
"You go first, I'll hold you back..."
Zhu Xiao turned around and suddenly froze on the spot. In the moment he lost his mind, Mu Qing and others, along with Zhong Ping's family, had already gone somewhere.
"Bang bang bang
. "
"Search the City Lord's Mansion, open the door!"
Someone yelled outside, and then without waiting for Zhu Xiao's response, he directly opened the courtyard door. When he saw Zhu Xiao, he surrounded him without saying a word.
"How presumptuous! I am the commander of Nanmen, where is Shen Ze?"
The guards moved aside, and Shen Ze strode up to Zhu Xiao.
Seeing Shen Ze's cold face, Zhu Xiao's expression changed slightly and said first, "Listen to my explanation..."
Shen Ze paused, then even took half a step back, staring at Zhu Xiao as if facing a formidable enemy, "Zhu Tianhu's death is really related to you?"
"..."
"What did you say?"
"Zhu Tianhu is dead!"
Seeing Zhu Xiao's reaction, Shen Ze relaxed his frown and said, "The city lord summoned him early in the morning to discuss matters, but there was no response. When I went to find him, he was already dead."
Zhu Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and said slightly angrily: "He's dead, he's dead. Why did you lead people to surround me? Do you think I am the murderer?"
Shen Ze's face turned ugly, "A group of people I was escorting were kidnapped? Did you do it?"
Zhu Xiao looked helpless: "I am also the commander of the City Lord's Mansion, how could I do something to one of my own?"
"It's just that I didn't take action against one of my own, so I suspected it was you!"
Zhu Xiao spread his hands and said, "I didn't do it, I just didn't do it. You can search it as you like."
Shen Ze shook his head, turned around and walked out of the hospital, "Not only is Zhu Xiao dead, the strange fire in his body was also taken away. This shows that the murderer has someone who has practiced the Nine Heavens Nether Flame Art. Before the matter is found out, , you and I are both suspicious."
Zhu Xiao was shocked and confused, and her face became even more annoyed: "What are these things?"
Shen Ze said: "The city lord is already at Zhu Tianhu's home. You can come with me."
Zhu Xiao nodded, and the two of them walked out of the small courtyard when they heard a fierce explosion, and the flames instantly shot into the sky.
"It's Zhu Tianhu's home!"
"No, the city lord and the others are under siege."
Shen Ze and Zhu Xiao looked at each other and rushed towards the direction where the fire was rising into the sky.
Not far away, Mu Qing watched all this silently.
Zhong Ping's family had woken up. After being tortured by Zhong Ling'er taking the Yuan Guang Mirror in and out, he finally told all the secrets he knew.
"Are we going to the City Lord's Mansion now?"
Murong Jing asked.
Mu Qing glanced at Zhong Ling'er, who shook her head and said, "I'm afraid it's not possible, someone is coming."
Mu Qing laughed and said, "His target is actually me."
