Records of Mysterious Things in the Southern Dynasties

Chapter 133: Chen Lingzhi (2000 votes plus)
"Miss Chen, how much do you know about this organization?" Ren Yuan asked hurriedly. He urgently needed information about this damn organization.

"They are spies from the Northern Dynasty lurking in our dynasty." Chen Lingzhi is indeed an important figure in the Gou Chen Division, and he knows a lot. "In fact, they existed long before our dynasty, so they are lurking very deep. And relying on the change of dynasties, I don't know how many subordinates they have developed."

"We put a lot of energy into catching spies, but we can't catch them all." She laughed bitterly and said puzzledly, "But the people of Minggui usually either spy on military intelligence at the front line or get information in Beijing. They also assassinate important officials and undermine the military and political affairs of the court. I have never seen them chasing two ordinary people."

"In fact, our grudge was formed in the tomb of Donghunhou." Ren Yuan told Chen Lingzhi about Mr. Na.

"The person who instigated Xie Gui also colluded with the spies of the Northern Dynasty?" Chen Lingzhi frowned tightly. The seriousness of the situation was beyond her imagination.

"But you've run so far, why are they still chasing you? Are they so vindictive?" the little girl interrupted.

"Her name is Huan'er. Don't underestimate her. She is a lady from a wealthy family." Chen Baxian introduced her to Ren Yuan.

"What do you mean by 'look at me like this'? What's wrong with me?" Huan'er glanced at Chen Baxian angrily, but unfortunately because he looked too childish, he seemed a little cute.

"I guess you must have something they want." She said to Ren Yuan confidently, "And that thing is very important, otherwise they wouldn't chase you all the way from Jiangnan to Jingzhou."

"Yeah, I think so too." Ren Yuan pretended to be confused and said, "So I brought the bone sword on the ship."

Chen Lingzhi glanced at Ren Yuan, smiled faintly, and did not expose him.

"Of course, it could also be that Brother Ren ruined their plan." She made up for Ren Yuan and said, "He was angry and wanted revenge."

"Really?" After hearing what Chen Lingzhi said, Huan'er was not so sure anymore.

"No matter what, it is our company's unshirkable responsibility to crack down on the Ming ghosts. If you agree, I will report this matter, which should be helpful to your situation." Chen Lingzhi said to Ren Yuan again.

"Forget it." Ren Yuan shook his head and said, "We can still handle it for now. When it really doesn't work, we can ask your company for help."

"Okay." Chen Lingzhi nodded, and without putting any pressure on him, he said, "I'm also worried about what excuse to use to report it."

"Deputy Captain Zu and I will soon arrive in Wuling. I will report to you if you need me." Yang Zhong said at this time.

"That's best." Ren Yuan readily agreed.

After updating everyone on the latest situation, Ren Yuan got off the boat.

Senior sister and Su Xiaoxiao also packed their luggage, and the group immediately set off.

At noon the next day, Lord Tu and his party finally arrived here.

Looking at the dead bodies scattered all over the side hall, Lord Tu said in anger:
"Who told them to act rashly? How did you issue the mission?!"

Wearing a green ghost mask, Ku Bo hurriedly explained: "My subordinates have made it very clear that if they discover the whereabouts of those people, they only need to report it. They were not allowed to interfere!"

"Foolish Yelang people, alerting the enemy by stirring up trouble!" Lord Zhui snorted. He knew that the best opportunity to take action had been wasted.

He was so angry that he threw a few black thunder bombs, blowing all the corpses into powder. Then he turned around and said to the big jar on Wanwan's back: "The distance is so close, you should be able to find them accurately, right?"

"I'll give it a try." Mr. Chen in the jar responded quickly and quickly used his spiritual sense to search, but he could not sense anything...

He was not unfamiliar with this feeling. He had encountered it last time when he was looking for the six jars. The boy had hidden the "Qingzhi Buhua Gu" in the Qiankun magic weapon. But how could he dare to tell the truth? The people in the organization already despised him for being like this. If he lost his last bit of usefulness, he would definitely be killed by Master Zhui immediately.

Master Tu rolled several mud balls and finally asked impatiently, "Have you found it?"

"Of course we found them, but they are moving very fast." Mr. Chen pretended to be calm and said, "Originally they were heading west, but just now they turned south. I don't know what they are trying to do."

"They are probably running around on purpose to shake off the pursuers." Fortunately, Lord Zhui also has a certain imagination ability, so he said in a deep voice: "They will stop sooner or later. Let's not run around blindly behind them. It won't be too late to chase them after them when they stop."

"Your Excellency is right. With Mr. Chen here, they can't escape." Chen Bo quickly agreed.

"Yes, yes." Mr. Chen also nodded guiltily.

In fact, Ren Yuan and his party were not running around at all. They had already entered Wuling City and were walking on the street in an orderly manner, leading their horses.

Normally, the streets should be bustling during the Chinese New Year, but looking around, white paper is pasted on the doors of shops and households, and even the Spring Festival couplets are white.

There were few pedestrians on the streets, no cars or horses, and the whole city was dead silent.

"This is a county town..." Ren Yuan said curiously, "No matter how remote it is, there shouldn't be no one on the street."

"It's really weird. There is some ghostly aura here, but it's not too strong." Su Xiaoxiao held up an oil-paper umbrella and said professionally, "Don't worry, most of the residents in the city are human."

"What do you mean by mostly?" Ren Yuan asked softly.

"This is a world where humans, gods and ghosts coexist. There are not only humans living in the city. What's so strange about that?" Su Xiaoxiao asked back.

"That's right." Ren Yuan nodded and said, "Let's find an inn to stay in first, and then slowly ask around."

There were a few inns on the street, but they were all closed in broad daylight. Ren Yuanshen took a quick look and found that there were people inside.

After knocking on the door of an inn with great difficulty, the innkeeper poked his head out with a gloomy face. "Why are you running around in broad daylight instead of staying at home?"

"..." Ren Yuan thought to himself, you said it the other way around, didn't you? But he smiled and said, "Sir, we are from out of town. Do you have any vacant rooms for us to stay in?"

"Yes." The shopkeeper's expression eased a little and he stepped aside to let them in.

The inn was fairly clean and crowded, but the doors and windows were closed. It was bright outside, but inside it was pitch black, with only a single lamp to light up.

The shopkeeper went behind the counter and said coldly, "The cheapest room is 40 cents, no meals included, and hot water is charged separately."

"Open a room upstairs." Ren Yuan said, and took out a small string of copper coins.

Seeing that what he took out was not iron coins, the shopkeeper finally smiled. Ren Yuan also changed from a poor boy covered in dirt in his eyes to a young man who came to play in the dust.

"Sir, are you here to look for the Peach Blossom Spring?" He asked enthusiastically as he lit a white candle. The warm yellow light immediately filled the entire room.

Ren Yuan's eyes flashed. Did he run into a big boss?
