Shi Qingjue asked Yu Zhulin while running towards the inner city with Yu Zhulin.

"When was the last time you saw Xiaoyue?"

"When we entered the palace. And when we entered the palace, we didn't see any soldiers chasing us. There were only a few servants, and there was no obstruction."

"How many pursuers are there?"

"More than twenty, still a patrol team in the inner city."

"Then how could she stop him?"

Shi Qing was definitely uneasy.

They all relied on sneak attacks to deal with the patrols in the outer city. In addition, the small alleys did not allow the patrols to have a numerical advantage, so Shi Qingjue was able to stop them alone.

But the inner city is different. In such an open environment, it might take five people to stop it. With that wooden sword?

Shi Qingjue asked Yuzhu Lin again.

"Did you see the body outside the door?"

"No. There's no blood at all."

Shi Qingjue's uneasiness increased again, and he felt palpitations.

If there is a body at the door, even if there is blood, it means that Jiang Xiaoyue fought there, and even if he was captured, there is a direction.

Arriving at the gate of Zhenxi Prince's Mansion, Shi Qingjue took off the lamp at the door and looked at the footprints on the ground.

The chaotic footprints only stopped at the door and did not continue going inside, indicating that the patrols stopped at the door.

why?

Shi Qing absolutely couldn't understand. Is there something at the door?

Could it be that Jiang Xiaoyue had some magic weapon that could block those people at the door? However, this kind of magic weapon should not have too many side effects. It is very unreasonable for the whole person to disappear.

Shi Qingjue looked around again and then raised his head. Yu Zhulin asked him hurriedly.

"Any clues?"

"There are no signs of a fight at the door. Search all over the city, and don't miss every corner. If I have any clues, I will light up a cigarette and tell you immediately, and so will you."

Shi Qingjue said, taking out a firework from his pocket and giving it to Yu Zhulin. After the smoke is lit, it will spray blue smoke straight upward, which can be seen from a long distance.

Yuzhulin took the fireworks and asked again.

"how about you?"

"I'll ask those patrols. The possibility of Xiaoyue being in their hands is very low, but they are the last people who saw Xiaoyue after all."

After the two people separated, Yu Zhulin went to the room, searched every place at a very fast speed, and called Jiang Xiaoyue's name.

Shi Qingjue, on the other hand, went straight to grab a guard and put the sword on his neck.

"Take me to the patrol or die."

"well."

When he arrived at the patrol team, Shi Qingjue saw the patrol team resting lazily. This group of people looked like they didn't know what to do, after all, there was such a big thing happening in the city.

As soon as Shi Qingjue came in, he kicked away the person who led the way, and then pointed his sword at the group of people.

"I only have one question to ask. If you don't tell me, or if you don't tell the truth, I can kill at least six of you. Whoever is willing to take the initiative to sacrifice can just resist. I will not touch you at all."

The way in and out was clearly explained to them. When Shi Qingjue saw the group of people hesitate a little, one of them stood up.

"You said."

"Today at Zhenxi Prince's Mansion, when you were chasing three people, a woman stopped you at the door. Where did she go?"

After hearing this, the man looked back at the others, and then shook his head at Shi Qingjue.

"We don't know."

"I said, if you don't tell the truth, you will die!"

Shi Qingjue's sword took another step forward, and the man immediately panicked.

"Sir, how dare we tell lies? You are in the same group, right? Then they are all members of Zuo Xiaoqiangwei. How dare we attack you."

"Zuo Xiaoqiuwei?"

Shi Qingjue knows this name. It is an organization that has existed since the founding of Northern Zhao Kingdom. It is directly under the emperor and is responsible for handling all secret affairs in the world. Very few people in this organization know that they are basically high-ranking officials and other valuable people who are being targeted.

But how could this person think that they were members of Zuo Xiao's Cavalry Guard?

The person opposite saw Shi Qingjue's reaction and was a little confused, so he asked.

"Don't you know that woman is from Zuo Xiao's Cavalry Guard?"

"Tell me everything you know."

"After the woman let the other two people in, she stopped us at the door and said that they were sent by the imperial court to solve the matter of King Zhenxi's conspiracy to rebel. Of course we didn't believe it, but she took out the badge of Zuo Xiao's Cavalry Guard. Others She didn't recognize her, but my godfather was once a great eunuch in the palace and knew about it. After we heard this, we asked her if she had any other instructions, and she didn't say much and just let us leave. After we left, I know that things are going to change in the city, and General Yan must be related to the rebellion of King Zhenxi, so I am waiting here for you to resolve the matter before reporting to the court."

"Zuo Xiaoqiuwei..."

Shi Qingjue knew that the person in front of him was not lying, because the existence of Zuo Xiaoqiuwei was a secret. If he wasn't the son of the Six Door Gods, he wouldn't have known about it.

But how could Jiang Xiaoyue be one of Zuo Xiao's cavalry guards? Could it be that she joined in order to come to Wei Tuo City and catch King Zhenxi who was plotting a rebellion? Doesn't that mean she must know Tieniu's identity?

Shi Qingjue shook his head violently, because now was not the time to think about this matter.

Jiang Xiaoyue's disappearance has nothing to do with this group of patrols, so what could be the reason?

Shi Qingjue asked this group of people again.

"Did you see where that woman went?"

"I just entered the palace. Maybe I was worried that the other two people were in danger."

After Shi Qingjue heard this, he planned to go to the palace, but that person immediately stopped Shi Qingjue.

"Sir, what should we do?"

"...After daybreak, we will hand over the evidence of King Zhenxi and his rebellion to you, and you can go to the court to receive the reward. Not to mention, everyone will be promoted to at least three levels in a row, and maybe they can even work as an errand in the palace."

After several people heard this, they all smiled. Working as an errand in the palace is a job where you do less, get more, and have more status, and you can bring glory to your ancestors when you talk about it.

Shi Qingjue also used these words to block the possibility that these people might join forces with King Zhenxi.

After saying that, he immediately went to Zhenxi Prince's Mansion.

The Zhenxi Prince's Mansion was also in a mess. There were many people lying on the ground, all of whom had been knocked unconscious by He Qingfeng's hidden weapons, but these people were of little value.

He went inside again and searched every room. Except for the eldest lady and the groom having an affair, he didn't see anything special. The maids and servants who are still able to move here are basically packing their things, preparing to run away with something valuable.

After all, the rebellion was meant to kill the Nine Tribes.

Jiang Li's figure has not yet been discovered.

Could it be that he went to steal the gold and silver treasures hidden by the King of Zhenxi?

Shi Qingjue asked several people in succession, but no one answered. It wasn't until he caught the housekeeper that he told him there was a secret room behind the study.

"Has a woman ever asked you that too?"

"No."

Shi Qingjue threw the housekeeper down and went directly to the secret room of the study.

He knew that the possibility of Jiang Xiaoyue being here was very low, but he had to see it with his own eyes before he could give up. Seeing the empty secret room, Shi Qingjue still didn't give up. He rummaged for a long time before finally leaving the secret room.

Most of the people outside had left by now.

Shi Qingjue walked out dejectedly and gave himself another mouthful to keep himself awake. There is no time to lose heart now.

Many people who were knocked unconscious also woke up at this time. Shi Qingjue looked at the people in Zhenxi Prince's Mansion who were scattering like birds and beasts. He took out all his money from his pocket.

"Who wants money?"

After asking this question, several people stopped and looked at Shi Qingjue, but did not dare to step forward.

Shi Qingjue threw the sword aside and said again.

"Whoever can answer my question, the money is yours. Five hundred taels of silver! Free!"

The group of people immediately gathered around, waiting for Shi Qingjue to speak.

Shi Qingjue looked at these people and asked.

"A man and a woman came in and took King Zhenxi away, knocking many of you unconscious. After that, another woman came in. Who knows where she went?"

He spoke as clearly as possible, and the crowd fell silent again, and two people left.

Shi Qingjue held the banknotes high.

"Who knew, this money is free!"

"Really?"

A voice came out, this was Shi Qingjue's life-saving straw.

"Of course, I can give it to you now."

After Shi Qingjue said this, he saw a thin middle-aged man walking out. He looked at the money in Shi Qingjue's hand and said.

"He was knocked unconscious by two people and carried away."

"Where were you knocked unconscious?"

"Just when I entered the door. I didn't faint after being hit, I just couldn't move and my eyes could still see. I saw the woman walking in, but two people suddenly jumped out from behind the door and knocked her unconscious. .”

"What are those two people like?"

Shi Qingjue asked anxiously. The middle-aged man still looked at the money. Shi Qingjue blackballed all the money before the middle-aged man continued.

"I couldn't see clearly, but they were both men. They were quite tall. One held two hooks in his hand, and the other held a hammer. He used the hammer to knock the woman unconscious. Then the two I just carried the person away, probably out of the city."

"Leave the city? Isn't the city gate closed?"

"The guards heard that the prince was going to rebel, so they opened the city gate to collect money and send people out. The gate was opened long ago."

Shi Qingjue looked at the city gate over there, gritting his teeth. It would have been easier if the door hadn't been opened. Now that it's open, those two people have probably taken Jiang Xiaoyue out of the city.

He lit a cigarette, and soon, Yuzhulin, Tieniu, and He Qingfeng were all here.

Shi Qingjue looked at King Zhenxi. He was so angry that he really wanted to hit someone. He kicked King Zhenxi twice before telling a few people what happened just now.

After hearing this, He Qingfeng immediately called the middle-aged man over and took out all his money.

"There are two thousand taels here. Tell me in detail what those two people are like and what kind of weapons they hold. The money is yours."

"well!"

The middle-aged man didn't expect that he could receive such an unexpected windfall, and he was very happy.

He Qingfeng also learned painting, and he painted according to what the middle-aged man said. Tieniu sent King Zhenxi and the evidence of the rebellion to the patrol team, and also told them, asking them to tell them that he had discovered King Zhenxi's fortress. Rebellion, killing the commander-in-chief and kidnapping the King of Zhenxi would be more meritorious, so that things here would have nothing to do with them.

Back at the Zhenxi Prince's Mansion, Tieniu watched as He Qingfeng was still changing the painting over and over again, until the middle-aged man was sure that it was the same as what he saw.

After taking revenge, his joy only lasted for a short period of time before he was troubled by new troubles.

Yuzhulin, Shi Qingjue and Tieniu were hanging out together, thinking about who might have a grudge against them and Jiang Xiaoyue. Money Gang is probably the biggest possibility. It's also possible for the cultivators to be immortals, but they don't need to use such low-level methods.

Tieniu blamed himself.

"No matter who did it, if it hadn't been for me, we would have been on our way and there would have been no such trouble."

"There's no time for you to blame yourself now. Let's find someone to talk to."

Shi Qing absolutely said this.

Although he said this, he was the one who blamed himself the most.

If it was really the Money Gang who did it, then the cause of all this was that he didn't choose to kill all the gangsters in the woods at the beginning and spare their lives.

Just being rational still reminds Shi Qingjue that blaming himself won't help anything, and he must find someone to talk to.

At this time, He Qingfeng had already drawn the faces of the two people, and he also drew the appearance of Jiang Xiaoyue. Having been together day and night for so long, he knew very well what Jiang Xiaoyue looked like.

"Go to Yuehai Tea House, quickly."

Shi Qingjue said something and took a few people to the Yuehai Tea House branch in the outer city.

It was safer for Feng Yulang to keep the token with Jiang Li, but when he came out today, Jiang Xiaoyue's copper coins showed that it was bad luck, so he gave the token to Shi Qingjue to prevent any accidents and he could go to Yuehai. Tea house looking for help.

After all, this is the biggest backstage they can find.

With such a big thing happening in the city, the people at Yuehai Tea House will not be idle. At this time, they are writing about what happened in the city and preparing to send a letter to the headquarters. Information is their greatest wealth.

Shi Qingjue entered Yuehai Teahouse and took out the token without saying anything. The shopkeeper also recognized it, stood up immediately, and held his hand.

"If you need anything, just ask."

"Who are these two people?"

He Qingfeng spread the paintings on the table.

The man looked carefully at the faces of the two men and then at the weapons.

"Both of them are members of the Money Gang. The one on the left is their gang leader, who calls himself Gai Sanshan, and the hammer he holds should be the hammer of the Bone Crusher Demon on their side. The one on the right is an elder, who calls himself Purgatory, and the hammer he holds is for himself. hook."

After listening, Shi Qingjue hit the table with his fist.

He was angry with the Money Gang and angry with himself.

When Jiang Xiaoyue was captured by them, there was only one possibility: torture.

How could a boss let his subordinates experience such a thing?

Jiang Li on the other side, who had been sent to a dungeon at this time, was also splashed with water and woke up.

She only felt a pain in the back of her head. When she opened her eyes, she saw the three people in front of her.

One had various torture instruments in his hand, another had various medicine bottles in his hand, and the other had the bone-crushing demon's hammer in his hand.

The man with the hammer asked Jiang Li.

"You killed the Bone Crusher Demon, it's time to bury him with you."
