Uh-huh!
The Canglan Sword carried the bodies of Chen Changan and Li Zaiyang through the sky. The sharp sword energy continuously cut the air, bursting out a burst of sparks, like a meteor streaking across the night sky, causing countless mortals to look up and bow their heads to make wishes.
"Sir, do you know where the three-eyed baby-eating monster is?"
Li Zaiyang on the flying sword clenched his fists, looking filled with indignation and anger:
"We won't even spare a newborn baby. This monster is so hateful. Master, let's go directly to kill this monster and eliminate harm for the people!"
Under Chen Changan's control, the Canglan Sword flew five hundred meters away from the city lord's palace and landed slowly.
Chen Changan jumped up and stood on the trunk of a towering tree, looking at the brightly lit City Lord's Mansion five hundred meters away.
"Your young master, how long have I been here in Yangzhou City? How do I know the whereabouts of the three-eyed baby-eating monster?"
After glancing at the energetic Li Zaiyang, Chen Changan's lips slightly raised.
Chen Changan didn't say anything. After all, even Elder Guan Zhong and Lord Wei Que, who had been guarding Yangzhou City for several years, couldn't find any trace of the three-eyed baby-eating demon. How could he, Chen Changan, know about it?
"Then young master, you..."
Li Zaiyang reacted instantly before he finished speaking.
He knew that his young master was just throwing a brick into the air and asking you to put him in an urn.
The three-eyed baby-eating demon has been able to escape repeatedly from the sieges of Elder Guan Zhong and the City Lord's Mansion. In addition to being cautious enough, the most likely reason is...
Someone tipped off the news! !
Either the three-eyed baby-eating monster is hiding in the city lord's palace, disguised as a slave or a guard.
Or, there is an insider of the three-eyed baby-eating demon in the city lord's mansion.
In recent years, whenever Elder Guan Zhong or the city lord's palace went to encircle and suppress the enemy, the insider would report the information in advance, and the alert three-eyed baby-eating demon could escape in advance, or choose another route to perfectly avoid being strangled.
Of course, these are Chen Changan's speculations.
But now there is no better way. If we want to discover and deal with the three-eyed baby-eating demon in a very short period of time, we can only muddy the water and make him show up on his own initiative.
This is why Chen Changan pretended to be confident and confident in the city lord's palace, and even said in public that he knew the whereabouts of the three-eyed baby-eating monster, just to make the traitor who didn't know whether it existed jump over the wall in fear!
"Li Zaiyang, just squat here and overlook the entire City Lord's Mansion."
Standing on the tree trunk, Chen Changan decided to divide his troops into two groups. After all, he didn't have that much time to waste away in Yangzhou City.
According to the information he had found out, the Tongtian Sword Sect's annual apprenticeship ceremony was coming soon. It would not be worth it if he stayed in Yangzhou City for too long and missed the apprenticeship ceremony.
"Even if a fly flies out, you have to keep an eye on me."
As he spoke, Chen Changan stretched out his hand, and a jade pendant imprinted with his spiritual consciousness flew out and fell into Li Zaiyang's hand:
"If you encounter danger or find something, crush this jade pendant and I will rush over immediately!"
Li Zaiyang, who took the jade pendant, quickly handed it over and said yes.
Li Zaiyang would never question Chen Changan's decision. As long as it was what Chen Changan ordered, even if he risked his life, he would do it without hesitation.
Chen Changan glanced at the brightly lit city lord's palace, then jumped down from the tall tree trunk, flew with air, and flew to the busiest wine shop or tea house in Yangzhou City to find out the news.
...
Qinshui Tower.
It is not the best or most expensive restaurant in Yangzhou City, but it is the most popular restaurant in Yangzhou City and has the most guests.
Because the food in the restaurant is delicious and cheap, people from all walks of life in Yangzhou City are willing to come to Qinshui Restaurant for a meal.
Even if it's just a poor beggar who comes and orders a pot of tea and sits there all night, Qinshui Tower will never let him in.
Therefore, business travelers and guests, ranging from high-ranking officials and nobles to poor beggars, like to squeeze into Qinshui Tower when they have nothing to do.
When there are more people, there will naturally be more news.
After performing the "Art of Changing Face", Chen Changan pretended to be a down-and-out scholar, sitting alone in a corner of Qinshui Tower, ordering a pot of the cheapest water and wine, and drinking by himself.
"Hey, have you heard?"
"A big thing happened in our Yangzhou City! Yunyu Tower was demolished, and Miss Zixin, the courtesan, was even imprisoned."
"What? Whoever dares to touch my girl, Zixin, wait until I hack him to death!"
"Hey, Erniu, don't be impulsive. The city lord and the young city lord are both gone, and even the Wushang Army has been dispatched."
"What happened next? What happened to my girl Zixin?"
"Yunyu Tower is still standing by the river, and Miss Zixin is naturally safe. Our city lord is a powerful person in the fifth level of the spiritual realm. A peerless master who has condensed some kind of magical power. To come to our Yangzhou City to cause trouble is like lighting a lantern in a latrine... ....”
"What?"
"Looking for shit (to die)!!"
"Haha, good kill, the city lord is mighty!"
...
"The wall of Widow Li's house next door was ripped open. I knew that this woman was unruly, and I don't know what kind of bastard got an advantage."
"What? Widow Li is a famous chaste and fierce woman in Yangzhou City. How could she..."
"Hey, you said that since Widow Li wanted to steal someone, why did she still reject me? Could it be that she can't feel my feelings for her, Wang Erhu?"
...
"Junior brother Zhao, after drinking this pot, we will go to Yunyu Tower to have a good time. It's not easy to sneak out. If we don't go to Yunyu Tower, we will be sorry for the hardship we have suffered these days."
"Is...isn't this bad?"
"Then I'll go by myself, as long as Junior Brother Zhao doesn't sue me in front of Master."
"Hey, senior brother, that's not what I meant. What I meant was, don't wait until this pot of wine is finished. Let's go now, go now..."
...
While drinking water and wine, Chen Changan stretched out his consciousness and took in all the hundreds of people in his "heart". The conversations of these people resounded in his mind one by one.
Among them, there are the most rumors about the attack on Yunyu Tower, but the three men became tigers. From word to word, most of them said that the city lord Wei Que came out to kill all the people. cheers.
It can be seen that the popularity of Yunyu Tower in Yangzhou City is far beyond ordinary people's imagination.
Li Zaiyang's sister Li Nianzhi's character and methods definitely surpass 99% of people in this world.
When he thought of Li Nian, Chen Changan's brows unconsciously wrinkled into the character "Chuan"...
"Uncle Zhang, drink less! Drink less!"
"People can't be resurrected. No matter how sad you are, it won't help. How can we ordinary people compete with those monsters? If we want to blame, we can only blame our bad fate!"
"I am always blessed with a son. The family finally hoped for a son, but before he was born to full term, he was eaten by that damn monster."
"What evil have I done?!"
"Shh, keep your voice down! Keep your voice down, if others hear it, we will inevitably..."
.......
On a side table in the southeast corner, two middle-aged men in ragged clothes were drinking and wiping tears.
Although the sound of the conversation between the two was very low, they were still keenly noticed by Chen Changan.
A newborn baby was eaten by a monster before it was full term?
Three-eyed baby-eating monster!
Chen Changan's eyes lit up, and when he stood up and was about to walk towards the two middle-aged men, he suddenly felt that the jade pendant handed to Li Zaiyang was broken.
Uh-huh!
Without the slightest hesitation, Chen Changan's body disappeared in Qinshui Tower instantly after firing a stream of spiritual power that attached itself to the two middle-aged men.
When he reappeared, he was already beside Li Zaiyang.
"Mr...Mr.!"
As soon as Li Zaiyang came to his senses, he found Chen Changan beside him. After being startled, he quickly raised his hands and saluted:
"Sir, after you left, no one else left the city lord's mansion except Elder Guan Zhong. Only this homing pigeon flew out."
While talking, Li Zaiyang handed the homing pigeon that he had forcibly intercepted to Chen Changan:
"I don't dare to leave this place for fear of missing out..."
"I have no choice but to crush the jade pendant and call the young master to come!"
After receiving the carrier pigeon handed over by Li Zaiyang, Chen Changan nodded and spread his consciousness, scanning every feather on the entire carrier pigeon.
Finally, a piece of feather stuck to the pigeon's body was found on the pigeon's abdomen. Under the stimulation of spiritual power, the feather suddenly erupted into a string of white light curtains, and a few lines of small words came into view:
"Chen Changan, an inner disciple of Taishang Jiutian Palace, is in the fourth level of the spiritual realm and possesses the Taoist artifact Heaven and Earth Wood King Cauldron."
"This is the person who made a big fuss in Yunyu Tower during the day."
"With the help of the power of the Taoist weapon, my strength is equivalent to that of the city lord Wei Que, and should be below you."
"Now this person may know where you are hiding, and promised to kill you completely in front of Guan Zhong and Wei Que."
Looking at the four lines of small characters floating in front of him, Chen Changan frowned.
"Sir, with this carrier pigeon, we..."
While he was talking, Li Zaiyang had already pulled out the Xueyang Sword and planned to give this homing pigeon a good blow.
"Let it go!"
With a wave of his hand, Chen Changan directly dispersed his spiritual power, leaving the feathers intact on the pigeon's belly.
"Huh? Then..."
Li Zaiyang was stunned for a moment, then immediately reacted:
"Let the carrier pigeon go, and then let's follow it to find the three-eyed baby-eater?"
"No, you continue to stay here and release the carrier pigeon, and don't care about anything!"
As he spoke, Chen Changan raised his hand, and the carrier pigeon flapped its wings and disappeared into the sky.
At the same time, Chen Changan's body also disappeared at the same time. When he reappeared, he was already in the lively streets of Yangzhou City.
And even the "Art of Changing Face" was removed to show people their true colors.
Obviously, he, Chen Changan, used himself as bait...
