Inside the room, Song Jun smiled coldly, her eyes were as sharp as knives:

"The person with the deepest fate? She deserves to talk about fate! Go back and tell her, I don't need her to beg, I will go to Chen Leixing for questioning. Let her stay at the house honestly. She has no law for her own selfish desires. Cover up the crime for several years, just wait for someone to investigate!"

The maid didn't dare to vent her anger, so she responded and went back.

After approving the coat, Song Jun saw that everyone was standing there and looked at him stupidly, and reprimanded impatiently: "What are you doing in a daze, follow me to the official office!"

Lu Ran stepped back silently and hugged Yuan Ji's arm.Ever since he stopped painstakingly before, he has learned without a teacher—or it may be that he picked up the skill of "acting like a baby" again.

He pinched Yuan Ji's sleeve.Woooooo, he's so scary, why is he so fierce.

Yuan already hugged his shoulder comfortingly.He was indifferent to the truth of the case, but thought that the boy who would cling to him for comfort was really cute—as cute as before.

Chao Sheng persuaded: "Although the monsters and ghosts are still hiding in the inn, and Chen Dalang may not wake up at this time. Even if he wakes up, it's not appropriate to openly break into the official prison in broad daylight, right?"

Song Jun didn't care: "Who said you're going to break into the cell? I just want to..."

He got stuck, and after a while he continued unnaturally:

"Cultivators do things, can that be called intrusion? That's called using magic to infiltrate the prison skillfully."

Lu Ran: "..."

How could he not believe it so much.

"As for Chen Leixing, hehehe." Song Jun gritted her teeth, her eyes were full of anger, like a man-eating beast, and said viciously, "Even if he doesn't wake up, I still have ways to wake him up!"

Lu Ran was alert all over, his back felt cold, and his hand unconsciously hooked Yuan Ji's little finger.

Help, why have Taiyi's disciples become so cruel now?

Yuan Ji laughed, held his hand behind his back, and interlocked his fingers.The thumb lightly rubbed the skin on the back of the hand, it seemed that it was just comforting without sex, but it was like the tip of a feather passing over the heart, causing a burst of numb sparks.

Lu Ran remembered the gentle kiss that fell on his fingertips yesterday, and his face flushed.

Holding hands after only two days of acquaintance, this is basically what a person like his sixth senior sister who was almost recruited into the Hehuan sect would do.She once put forward a famous theory: Only boring old men can make love like a painting circle, complicated and regular, rigid and boring.The vigorous love of young people should be an explosion that was caught off guard.

Lu Ran used to think that his sixth senior sister was very unreliable, but now he finally understands the essence and deep meaning of "Love is an explosion".

Chao Sheng didn't know that his teammates were all on their own errands, and were still serious about business.According to Lu Ran's description, it has a human face, a jackal body, a snake tail, and wings on its back, which can imitate a woman's voice.This should be a fallen demon snake.

Now the whereabouts of the female ghost Ah Nan is unknown, and the injured snake may also be waiting for an opportunity.It is best to get rid of the snakes and female ghosts first when the sunlight can suppress the magic breath during the day.In the evening, he sneaked into the government office in the dark and questioned Chen Leixing.

However, Song Jun ignored him at all, and made him want to slay the devil himself, but the female ghost Ah Nan had to leave it to her——

"【I want to see Ah Nan with my own eyes, she will be wiped out!】"

Chao Sheng was helpless.The tin staff is a Buddhist treasure, which is mainly used to purify resentful spirits and is not good at killing.Song Jun's iris arrow is the magic weapon to restrain the snake.However, according to Song Jun's current mood, it is very likely that the iris arrow will taste Chen Leixing's blood before killing the monster.

They rushed back to the inn last night, but they were pestered by the guards of the city lord's mansion all the time. It was Song Jun who destroyed three houses in one go, and stopped the pursuit.If he was really allowed to go to the government alone, he would blow up the prison accidentally on impulse.Xianmeng found out that they would die hand in hand.

At most, he could only seal the snake in the inn, and wait for Song Jun to come back before killing him.It's just that, if time drags on, something will happen again.He can get rid of the female ghost, but now Song Jun must leave Ah Nan to deal with it.

The store cannot be left unattended, and the ancestor cannot be stopped.Fortunately, Chao Sheng is a Buddhist disciple, so his mentality didn't explode on the spot.He looked at Lu Ran for help: "Why don't you go to the government with Song Jun?"

Yuan Ji glanced at Chao Sheng coldly, and tightened his grip on Lu Ran's hand.Lu Ran didn't hear what the monk was saying at all, and replied subconsciously: "Ah, oh, okay, I can."

He woke up a little: "What?"

Chao Sheng: "..."

Can there be a reliable one?

Chao Sheng said it again.Lu Ran thought to himself, master, you can't stop me, so can you still count on me.But he also knew that it was inappropriate to let Song Jun go alone, so he could only bite the bullet:

"Then I'll accompany Song Jun to the government office, and go back as quickly as possible. I'd like to trouble Master Chaosheng to stay in the store. After transforming into a snake and falling into a devil, he is very powerful. Even though it's daytime, don't be careless."

He looked at Yuan Ji again.Yuan has no spells, so it would be inconvenient to take him into prison.But he was reluctant to part with Yuan Ji.Besides, the monster is still in the shop, although Chaosheng looks very reliable, but just in case...

Yuan Ji coughed lightly, looked around the store, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said softly: "I'll stay with Master Chao Sheng and stay in the store."

Lu Ran's glass heart shattered instantly.In this tone, there is no sentimentality of separation at all.Could it be that he was thinking about unrequited love before, but he didn't mean it at all.

Yuan already walked up to him, gently gathered his sideburns behind his ears, leaned close to his ear, and whispered in a voice that only two people could hear:

"You have to come back early, I will wait for you here."

Lu Ran felt that his glass heart was glued together again in an instant, and turned into a glazed lamp, shining pink.

He smiled foolishly: "Ah, okay."

Ah Ying did not hide in the shadows at this time.A strange excitement flashed across the usually calm blue pupils.

This time it was only Song Jun's turn to seriously prepare for sneaking into the cell:

"Other things are easy to talk about, except that it is more troublesome to pay off the guards of the prison for repeat offenders. How about picking an empty warehouse and blowing it up to lure all the guards away?"

Lu Ran almost didn't mention it in one breath.

It is really wise to leave Yuan Ji to Chao Sheng.

Lu Ran and Song Jun changed their clothes for easy movement, and A Ying hid in the shadows.The sky above the inn is shrouded in a faint golden light prison, and the scriptures on the Buddhist bead circle are faintly visible.This magic circle can only trap demons and ghosts, it does not stop mortals.

Yancheng Yamen is located in the north of the city, and the prison is on the west side of the Yamen, so it is not difficult to find.As soon as the three of them walked around the back wall of the prison, they heard a noise inside. Officers and soldiers came and went, footsteps came and went, as if they were searching for something.

A Ying sneaked in, and after a while, she leaned out half of her body from the shadow of the corner: "A quarter of an hour ago, the guards discovered that Chen Leixing had woken up quietly, and somehow escaped from the shackles."

Lu Ran was a little surprised—he never expected that Chen Leixing could escape from the prison by himself.

A Ying asked Song Jun what to do next.Song Jun thought for a while: "Do you think Chen Leixing opened the box after he stole it?"

Lu Ran suddenly realized: "The key to the box was finally found in Zhang Laizi's room. Chen Leixing was in a hurry to kill and seize the treasure, so he probably didn't know that the things in the box were worthless."

Song Jun nodded: "Let's go to the warehouse. Murder evidence is usually kept there."

The three of them avoided the patrolling guards and went around to the warehouse.Most of the people have gone to the prison, and there are only two guards left outside the warehouse.But at this time, the two guards fell unconscious at the door.

Several people looked at each other, and their expressions became serious.A golden whip appeared in Song Jun's hand, with nine sections in total, which seemed to be made of the spine of some monster.Lu Ran lit the soul lamp in his pupils, and cautiously opened the door, while Ah Ying sneaked into the darkness without a sound.

The room was silent.

Lu Ran walked in front and looked for it along the rows of wooden frames. Song Jun turned her back to Lu Ran to guard the rear.Each frame on the wooden frame is full of scrolls and wooden boxes of the same standard.

Lu Ran stopped.

One space is empty, and the nameplate below it is marked with the words "Murder at the Helong Inn".

He whispered: "It's here, Chen Leixing has already taken the box away."

No one answered.

Feeling bad, Lu Ran suddenly turned his head.

Song Jun still turned her back to him, motionless.The whip in his hand hangs down slowly.

A circle of thin invisible steel wire was wrapped around his neck, forming a slightly sunken ring.

Chen Leixing walked out of the darkness with the box in one hand and the steel wire in the other.

The steel wire is as thin as a giant, completely invisible in the dark.Chen Leixing should have placed the trap on the wooden frame when they entered the door.Just waiting for Song Jun to pass by, the noose dropped.

Chen Leixing walked to the bright place.

A thin and long knife was right at his throat, piercing a shallow bloodstain.

It's Aying.

Aying threatened in a low voice: "If you don't want to die, loosen the wire!"

A crazy and distorted smile appeared on Chen Leixing's face: "You don't know me, but I know you. I don't regret dying, but—"

He tightened the steel wire in his hand, and a drop of blood slowly flowed down the steel wire on Song Jun's neck.

"He's dead, but that's a big deal. Do you want to compare whether your blade is faster or my steel wire is faster?"

A Ying pursed her lips and said nothing.

Lu Ran hid his hands in his sleeves, and quietly pinched a formula.A trace of spiritual power, like a snake, swam along the ground and climbed up along the corner of Song Jun's clothes.Wrap carefully around the steel wire at the end.

Metal filaments, assassination treasures refined by the world's top craftsmen.Weak metallic spiritual power.but--

Lu Ran frowned slightly.

The sharp metal wire has been temporarily processed and has become a little dull.Otherwise, Song Jun's throat would have been cut as early as the moment she was caught in the rope trap.

Lu Ran asked in a low voice: "That morning, you took advantage of him and A Ying to go to the backyard, and put the blood-stained brocade robe under Song Jun's bed, deliberately implying that the murderer was someone from the shop?"

He originally thought that at such a critical moment, he would be nervous and speechless, but in fact, both the spiritual power he secretly released and his voice were unbelievably stable.

Chen Leixing squinted at the hostage in his hand sarcastically: "I just want to remind him. Under his brocade clothes, there is endless blood."

Lu Ran paused for a moment: "You recognized Song Jun's identity the first time he entered the inn."

"If you observe a certain type of people for more than ten years, no matter how they disguise themselves, you will be able to recognize them."

"But you just framed him and didn't take the opportunity to assassinate him."

Chen Leixing snorted coldly: "I don't kill women."

There was not much surprise on Lu Ran's face.

Song Jun seemed to be arguing unreasonably, after his wife was attacked, he showed no taboo behavior, A Ying's appearance...he had already guessed that Song Jun was a woman disguised as a man.

So Lu Ran could understand Song Jun's disappointment with Anan and the mayor's wife.That is the same woman, obsessed with love for her companions, ruining her life, vain and materialistic, stupid and greedy.

And Chen Leixing's "not killing women" is also telling the truth, he did show mercy and didn't want to take people's lives.

The spiritual power is like a climbing vine, slowly blending into the steel wire, gradually synchronous with the metal wire, entangled and implicated, inseparable.Invisible to the naked eye, the internal structure of the steel wire is rapidly changing.

Chen Leixing was almost on the verge of success - if he didn't know, the soft and gentle boy standing in front of him was a genius forging weapons recognized by the world of cultivating immortals 20 years ago.

"what do you want?"

"Let me go. When I get outside the city, I will naturally let Master Song go. As for this girl who can sneak into the shadow—"

Chen Leixing glanced contemptuously at the knife on his neck: "If you dare to chase after her, I will cut off one of her master's hands."

Aying's face was expressionless, and his blue eyes were deep, like the surface of the sea where a storm was coming.

Lu Ran only felt that he was calmer than ever: "You may not know that the box is full of broken copper and iron."

A hint of ferocity flashed in Chen Leixing's eyes: "Shut your mouth. I don't need you to tell me what the value of this box is."

Lu Ran analyzed slowly: "Zhang Liezi knelt in front of the nan tree and slashed 21 knives to death. This is not a simple murder, you are taking revenge. I just remembered that when the war was imminent, the heartless man who abandoned Ah Nan in the city A businessman, also surnamed Chen."

Chen Leixing noticed that Lu Ran was stalling for time, so he stopped answering and led Song Jun towards the door step by step.

The wood spirit power was finally fully integrated into the metal wire.A slight tremor, along the connection of spiritual power, was transmitted to Lu Ran's fingertips.

Lu Ran suddenly shouted: "A Ying, do it!"

The deadly steel ring around Song Jun's neck, like a rotten vine, suddenly softened and broke.Chen Leixing was startled, before he had time to take out the new steel wire, Aying's ghostly swords drew a silver arc and struck.

Song Jun clutched her throat that was still bleeding, and said with difficulty: "Don't kill him."

A Ying's movements froze, and the double blades slid past the man's clothes.Chen Leixing didn't hesitate at all, and took advantage of the time to rush directly to the door.Before running two steps, the soles of his feet tilted, and he fell heavily to the ground. Blood spurted from the ankles and knees of both legs.

A Ying swirled out of the shadows on the ground like a ghost, flicked his two knives, blood dripped on the face of the defeated soldier.

Chen Leixing fell to the ground, and smiled sadly: "Shadow Raider, the most elite assassin in the Great Zhou Dynasty, really lives up to his reputation. It's ridiculous that someone dares to put an assassin by his side as a shadow guard."

A Ying was full of hostility, and she was about to cut Chen Leixing's throat with the knife.Song Jun stopped shouting.A Ying glanced at Song Jun, held back her killing intent, and hid in the darkness again.

There was still a slight red mark on Song Jun's neck.Her throat was almost cut open just now, and the blood was still slowly oozing out. Her voice was hoarse and weak, but her eyes were burning and her momentum was overwhelming:

"Under the rich and splendid clothes of the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there is an endless sea of ​​blood and deep hatred."

"You are a survivor of the Yan Kingdom."
