Black Fairy, the master is a female ghost

The next morning, the yamen runner brought a wax ball.

This wax pill was excreted after the man was given a laxative last night.

Lu Xun Huan gestured to the Sixth Prince, "Your Majesty, please."

The Sixth Prince took the wax ball, squeezed it open, and took out a piece of parchment.

On the parchment, a lot of content was densely written in tiny words.

The Sixth Prince struggled to read it for a while, then handed the parchment to Lu Xunhuan with some disappointment: "It's all about your military training methods."

Lu Xunhuan took the parchment and took a look at it. It was indeed true. It was all about the methods of training soldiers, and there was naturally no mention of dragon bones.

He put the parchment away. "He stole military secrets from the Zhou Empire, confirming his espionage. However, the more than 20 people in the Zhongtian Shop can't all be sent by the Southern Liang Kingdom. Among them are people from the Zhou Empire they hired. Torture this guy until he reveals his accomplices. Kill him."

The Sixth Prince turned around and said, "But I haven't found what I wanted to investigate. You've only shaken up a bunch of rats."

Lu Xun Huan said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty."

The two men handed the interrogation over to the yamen runners and went back to rest.

At noon, a fast horse entered from the south gate, asked for directions, and headed straight for the Zhongzhou government office.

At this time, the newly appointed prefect Cao Ruhai was sitting in the lobby of the yamen.

A woman came on horseback and dismounted at the yamen gate: "Sir, our headmaster is here. We have urgent news."

Cao Ruhai looked bewildered: "Who is the head of your family, and where are you from?"

The woman said, "I come from Dengtian Sect, and our leader is Lu Xunhuan."

Cao Ruhai hurriedly stood up and called to the yamen runner, "Quick, go and tell Lord Lu to come over."

About an incense stick of time later, Lu Xunhuan and the Sixth Prince hurried to the yamen.

After meeting the woman, he asked, "Senior Sister Lan, what's going on?"

Senior Sister Lan reported, "According to your instructions, I brought several disciples to Qingtian Pass and guarded the gate. Yesterday, just after dark, a masked man arrived carrying a corpse. We rushed to intercept him, but he was stronger than us, so we were unable to stop him. Sister Bai suffered internal injuries as a result."

The Sixth Prince's face was filled with disappointment: "Run away?"

Lu Xun Huan pulled Senior Sister Lan to his side and said, "Your Highness, the Dengtian Clan's strength is limited to begin with. We have all done our best."

After speaking to the Sixth Prince, he asked Senior Sister Lan, "Is Senior Sister Bai's injury serious?"

Senior Sister Lan said with some worry, "It seems that the internal injuries are not light. If there is no high-level immortal pill, I am afraid it will take a year or two to recuperate."

Lu Xun Huan said with some heartache: "If you can't stop it, don't force it. If someone gets hurt, how will I feel good about it?"

Beside him, the Sixth Prince said, "Lu Xunhuan, don't lead the troops in training these few days. Accompany me to Qingtian Pass."

Lu Xun Huan asked, "Is the prince going to pursue us even further into the territory of Southern Liang?"

The Sixth Prince said, "Go and take a look."

Senior Sister Lan hurried to Zhongzhou City and didn't even have time to sit down. She followed Lu Xunhuan and the Sixth Prince out of the city, riding at full speed all the way to Qingtian Pass.

It is three hundred miles from Zhongzhou City to Changfeng Town, and another two hundred miles from Changfeng Town to Qingtian Pass, which means they have to travel five hundred miles.

Moreover, the closer you get to Qingtian Pass, the more dangerous the terrain becomes, and you have to go up all the way.

When the three of them arrived at Qingtian Pass, it was already early morning of the next day.

At Qingtian Pass, several guarding soldiers saw the three people from afar and shouted, "Who are you?"

Lu Xunhuan took out the military token and said, "Captain of the Left Camp of Zhongzhou City, come to inspect the pass."

A soldier hurried down from the checkpoint, came up to Lu Xunhuan, and took the token from his hand.

Then, he half-knelt and saluted: "Greetings, sir."

Beside Lu Xunhuan, the Sixth Prince said, "Get up."

He asked the soldier, "I'm asking you, was there a fight here just after dusk the day before yesterday?"

When the soldier heard the prince's words, he was about to stand up, but he knelt down again and said, "Your Highness, there is indeed a fight."

The Sixth Prince said, "Get up and go to the scene of the fight."

The soldier stood up and said, "Your Majesty, Lord Lu, this girl, please follow me."

The three followed the soldier, climbed up a slope, moved sideways for about a hundred feet, and came to a pool of blood.

The soldier reported, "Your Highness, Lord Lu, this is the scene of the fight. A girl in white was injured. This is the blood she vomited."

The Sixth Prince asked, "Did you see clearly who the enemy is?"

The soldier said, "It was dark then. We were a hundred feet away from the pass, so we couldn't see clearly. We only heard the sound of weapons clashing, and then a woman screamed. Then, we saw a dark figure rush out of the pass and head towards the Southern Liang Kingdom. Judging from its shape, it should be a man."

The Sixth Prince asked again, "Did the black shadow have anything in his hand?"

The soldier replied, "He's carrying something on his shoulders. I can't see clearly in the dark, but it looks like he's carrying a person."

The Sixth Prince shook his head: "Just run away like that?"

Lu Xun Huan said, "Your Highness, if that thing is on the corpse, and if the corpse enters the Southern Liang Kingdom, that would be a good thing. Let the various factions of the Southern Liang Kingdom fight for it. They fight among themselves, and we can sit back and watch the fight."

The Sixth Prince was silent for a while. "Alright, that's all we have to do. Your disciple is injured, so I'll go with you to see him."

The three of them returned from Qingtian Pass and arrived at Dengtian Gate in the afternoon.

Junior Sister Xiaoqing was guarding the mountain gate. Seeing Lu Xunhuan coming back, she rushed over excitedly.

She hugged Lu Xunhuan and said excitedly: "You are finally back, finally back..."

Lu Xun Huan quickly separated her from him: "Senior Sister Bai is seriously injured, take me to see her quickly."

A cup of tea later, at Senior Sister Bai's residence, Lu Xunhuan held her hand and looked at her pale face, feeling indescribable heartache.

"If you really can't stop me, don't force it. If anything happens to you, I'll owe you my whole life."

Senior Sister Bai smiled weakly: "It's okay, at most in a year or two, I'll be full of life again."

Beside him, the Sixth Prince asked, "Miss Bai, what was the situation at that time?"

Senior Sister Bai said, "We followed the Sect Master's orders and rushed to Qingtian Pass to ambush someone carrying a corpse or a coffin. Just as it got dark, a masked man appeared carrying a corpse. We immediately stepped forward to intercept him, but he was too powerful, probably in the Tengyun Realm. We couldn't resist him, and after injuring me, he ran away carrying the corpse."

After hearing this, the Sixth Prince was speechless.

He asked around, and everyone said the same thing. What Senior Sister Lan said before, what the guard said later, and what Senior Sister Bai said now were exactly the same.

This shows that someone did indeed escape into the Southern Liang Kingdom carrying the corpse.

What kind of corpse is so important that it is worth a person with extraordinary skills to carry it and run thousands of miles?

It should be the old man's body.

After being disappointed, he wanted to go down the mountain immediately, and when he went down the mountain, he had to drag Lu Xunhuan back to Zhongzhou City with him.

Lu Xunhuan originally planned that since he was back, he would stay for one night and accompany everyone before leaving.

But the prince didn't give him time to stay, so he had no choice but to say goodbye to everyone and leave with a feeling of apology.

When the two returned to Zhongzhou City, it was already late at night, so they went back to their respective residences.

The city was completely silent, and in the Shenlong Pavilion mansion, the window of the helmsman's residence was opened again.

A dark shadow flipped into the room from the window.

Then, the windows were closed and there was silence in the darkness.

That black shadow was naturally Lu Xunhuan.

He stood in the darkness, smelling the perfume emanating from the house, and waited for a while. Before the helmsman spoke, he spoke first.

"I asked you to follow the plan and didn't let you seriously injure my men."

The captain said with a hint of surprise, "Is anyone seriously injured? You said you wanted a man to carry the body through the checkpoint, but I had to ask someone else to do it. I couldn't go myself. That guy, why did he hit me so hard?"

Lu Xunhuan asked, "Who are you looking for?"

The helmsman replied, "My brother is absolutely reliable."

Lu Xun Huan asked again, "Is your brother also a member of the Shenlong Pavilion?"

The captain replied, "No, he is a member of the Immortal Friends Association."

Lu Xun Huan was silent for a while before he said, "Can you help me find some high-quality immortal pills and send them to Dengtianmen?"

The helmsman nodded in the darkness. "No problem. How's your investigation into the keel going?"

Lu Xunhuan said, "I'll let you know when I have news. Now I'm leaving."

The window was pushed open, and a moment later, Lu Xunhuan disappeared without a trace.

A masked woman walked to the window, looked out, and then gently closed the window.

Then, she returned to the table in the dark, sat down, and sat there for a long time, refusing to go to sleep. No one knew what she was thinking about.
