After the Fairy Disappeared Chapter 533

  Chapter 533 Hunting separately

   Mai Xuewen is more patient than him and knows how to hide himself better.

  Bai Ziqi pondered and said: "This person spent ten years infiltrating into your internal affairs. Either he has a deep hatred with you, or the enemy is secretly working."

  How long is ten years, who has the perseverance to find faults and collect evidence for ten years?

  Wu Kai smiled wryly: "I've been thinking over and over again these days, but neither Cen Boqing nor myself have an enemy surnamed Mai."

  He Lingchuan's heart moved slightly, and he interjected: "What should be considered more is why this person has been lurking for ten years but is now making a move?"

  Bai Ziqi held his palm: "Good question, what do you think?"

   "Is the time ripe?"

   "Why?"

  He Lingchuan sneered secretly, but on the surface he spread his hands in a daze: "I'm a foreigner, and I don't know much about the current situation. Has anything happened to Chi Yan recently?"

  He then said: "Mai Xuewen must consider the cost of his adventure. If there is a mistake, ten years of hard work will be wasted, so his goal should be very clear and firm."

  Hearing the words clear and firm, Bai Ziqi's eyes sparkled.

   Will it be related to another case he has to investigate?

   Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that the messenger case, the disappearance of the demon people, and the things that the gods and the emperor confessed appeared in Chiyan almost at the same time?

   Judging from the time and space of the crime, Mai Xuewen is within the reasonable doubt range!

  The boy surnamed He is right, Mai Xuewen needs a suitable incentive to make a move.

  He pondered for a while, then asked Wu Kai: "Is there any festival between Cheng Yu and Mai Xuewen?"

   "Ah this?" Wu Kai was at a loss this time, "I don't know, have they met before?"

   It stands to reason that these two people have nothing to do with each other. But Wu Kai was not sure, because he found that he knew nothing about the real Mai Xuewen.

  He Lingchuan also slightly raised his eyebrows.

  Why did Bai Ziqi link these two people together?

  He said earlier that Cheng Yu might be able to help him with another case. In other words, does he suspect that Mai Xuewen is related to another case?

  Another case that also attracted the attention of the gods?

   "Cen Boqing should be arrested and brought to justice first." He Lingchuan coughed, reminding Bai Ziqi of the most important task at hand, "If Cheng Yu wants to cast a spell, the two of them should not be too far away from Baishazhen."

"That's right. The furthest distance of curse killing is more than fifty miles." Bai Ziqi nodded and said, "The farthest they have to find a safe place in the suburbs, stop and cast spells. Curse killing can't be cast casually." Spells, the more powerful the spell, the more limited it is by the right time and place."

  He turned his head and asked Wu Kai: "Where do you think Cen Boqing will go to hide?"

  Wu Kai shook his head: "There are really several hiding places for him. But he won't go to any place I know."

   "Can he go to places you don't know?" He Lingchuan smiled, "You are his right-hand man. You know what he knows, and you should know what he doesn't know."

Wu Kai frowned and thought for a long time, even Bai Ziqi was getting impatient, and he said: "There are two places to check: Madam's personal maid, Xiao Qing, married a small businessman the year before last, surnamed Ye. Everyone Everyone thought they had gone to a foreign country, but in fact her husband lost all his money in business, so he had to go back to Xiaotan Town on the south bank of the Liu River to live in his old house. Cen Boqing never mentioned it in front of me, and I only heard a broken piece last month The mother-in-law told me that she ran into Xiaoqing in Xiaotan Town."

   "I guess, if Cen Bo had known the address of the couple early in the morning, he might have gone there to avoid the limelight."

  Bai Ziqi nodded: "What else?"

   "There's one more..." Wu Kai swallowed, "It's the Zhuangzi I just bought in the western suburbs of the city a few years ago."

  Even He Lingchuan was stunned: "Will he go to your place?"

"That Zhuangzi is close to Langshan, and the environment is secluded. No one will approach it except Zhuang Ding." Wu Kai smiled wryly, "I bought it for the elderly, and I can also give it to..." He wanted to say to my grandson to play, but seeing Bai Ziqi's eyes burning , I felt that I had slipped my words.

   Never mention grandchildren in front of this person.

   "But I'm under arrest now, Zhuangzi has no owner, Cen Boqing might hide there."

"That's right, the place no one wants is a good place to hide." Bai Ziqi pondered, "By the way, there are also your internal agents in the official post, right? Cen Bo doesn't run away early in the morning and doesn't run away at night, but why he leads troops in Ludu The reason why he escaped when he entered the Cen Mansion was probably not because he had good concentration, but because the timing was the most appropriate."

  He Lingchuan hurriedly cheered: "What does Bai Dushi think?"

   "Old Chen, the groom, is also in the mansion, so he must be controlled by the officials. He can't escape by himself."

   "If the magic weapon Xue Lidongtian can still be taken out, and Cen Boqing and Cheng Yu can still escape, it means there is someone outside to support him!"

   "This person can not only get in touch with Lao Chen, but also won't arouse other people's suspicion, that is—"

  He Lingchuan let out a long cry: "Official messenger!"

  Lu Du led the crowd into the Cen Mansion, all the servants in the mansion were guarded and detained, and the only "outsiders" they could contact were officers and soldiers.

  Since all Lu Dutong brought were soldiers from other places, the most likely to be bribed were Tian County Magistrate's subordinates.

  The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. Looking at Tian County Magistrate as an official, one knows that his servants are not very clean. Cen's mansion can bribe Linhai, a prisoner, why can't they bribe a second official?

   "Magistrate Tian's subordinates also have to investigate."

  Wu Kai whispered: "No need, I will give you a few names."

  Bai Ziqi looked at Wu Kai, and gave him the Heart Talisman for self-defense.

   After all, it is an important witness, and it is best to take it back to Lingxu City.

  Just now Bai Ziqi sent guards to the Cen Mansion to interrogate, Fu Shanyue immediately sent more than a hundred riders to Xiaotan Town near the north gate of the city and Zhuangzi in the west suburb of the city.

  Time is everything, and these two people must never be given another chance to escape.

  When more information from Hu Kai arrived, the officers and soldiers searched out the groom Lao Chen from among the servants of the Cen family, and asked him about the whereabouts of Xue Li Dongtian.

  Old Chen still wanted to hide it, but his wife and children were all **** by Lu Dutong, with a glaring big knife on his neck, and he immediately faltered.

  As soon as he confessed, the inner ghost in the county government was also found out. It was a servant named Zhou Tailai, who was in the name provided by Hu Kai. When the officers and soldiers rushed into Cen's mansion, he went to take care of his servants, and the groom Lao Chen took the opportunity to hand over Xueli Dongtian to him.

  Fu Shanyue ordered someone to break Zhou Tailai's kneecap, without giving him any room for hesitation, so this person immediately admitted that he transported Xue Lidongtian to an empty house on Hutao Street in the north of the city, near the north gate.

  But he didn't know that this magic weapon could hide people, let alone fugitives hid in it, he just thought it was just a treasure smuggled out of the house.

   Bega has lived for nearly 600 years. I don't know how many dignitaries collapsed before and after. Officers and soldiers who ransacked their homes rushed in. Who was not like a wolf like a tiger, lest they miss a handful of jewelry?

  The treasures that have been lying in the treasury and eating ashes for one or two hundred years will soon be able to see the light of day on the market and realize its original value. Isn't it because of the private coercion of the officers and soldiers? He thought it was the same this time.

   "North of the city?" Fu Shanyue smiled slightly. After He Lingchuan brought Wu Kai back this morning, all the gates of the city were lifted from security, and no strict checks were made on people entering and leaving. This gave Cen Boqing and the others an opportunity to take advantage of.

  He dispatched his men again.

  Lu Dutong's 300 subordinates, together with the prince's dozens of guards, rushed to Xiaotan Town near the north gate of the city. This is the focus of this pursuit.

  As for the Zhuangzi in the western suburbs of the city recruited by Hu Kai, he only sent officials from Tian County Magistrate to search.

  The western suburbs of the city.

  Fu Shanyue, Fan Sheng and Lu all went north, so Bai Ziqi chose the west.

   "I wish you all the best, I'll go to the west to try my luck, maybe the blind cat caught a dead mouse." Bai Ziqi didn't want to take the credit, because after the prince of Chiyan Kingdom caught someone, he had to **** him to Lingxu City in the end.

   After Fu Shanyue signaled, He Lingchuan also followed. A group of people galloped on the official road in the western suburbs.

  Fortunately, the official road in Baisha is also wide and straight, so it is not dangerous to drive at night.

  To be honest, he doesn't like to be near Bai Ziqi. The sixth sense always reminds him that this guy is dangerous, it's best to stay away.

   Ke told him rationally that this is a good opportunity to observe the "Shangshi" of Lingxu City at close range—under the cover of the halo of the prince of Chiyan Kingdom.

  Bai Ziqi's mount is a pure-blooded spirit deer, pure white all over, only a few light blue lines on the neck and thighs.

   Well, the eyeballs are also blue.

   Such a fairy-like mount is indeed very suitable for Du Yunshi of the Zhaixing Tower.

  He Lingchuan sized up the spirit deer twice, and Bai Ziqi noticed it, turned his head and said with a smile: "Your mount is also very good."

  Why do you say "also"? Because this kind of spirit deer is a mount specially bred by people from Lingxu City. It is used by noble ministers and powerful families to ride. It combines beauty and speed.

   Of course, the most important thing is appearance. The purer the bloodline, the better the appearance, the more expensive the price.

   There are also strong players among the best, and the most expensive is the limited edition, which can emit a hazy white light at night, known as "shine at night". Even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it, such as Bai Ziqi's seat.

  By comparison, He Lingchuan's bighorn sheep look dusty and dull, and the proportion of head, body and legs is not as perfect as that of Linglu.

  He Lingchuan chuckled.

  He does not need to install 13 sharp weapons for the time being.

   This kind of light-emitting thing is a living target on the battlefield, more conspicuous than a white horse, and it would be unreasonable not to be shot.

  Bai Ziqi said again: "I heard that you and Zhong Sunmou made a bet at Chaohu Pagoda, and went to the Lotus Palace to collect funds. At that time, you didn't consider that Fan Sheng would take advantage of the chaos to come to revenge?"

  He Lingchuan had a solemn face: "I thought that the deputy commander of Tongxinwei would be proud of his identity, and if he wanted to compete again, he would come to me to discuss it."

  He knew that the envoy from Lingxu City would definitely notice this matter.

  He looked at Bai Ziqi and sighed: "If I knew Commander Fan as well as Bai Dushi, I probably wouldn't end up on my own. How safe is it to stay on the Chaohu Pagoda?"

  There were two thorns hidden in the two sentences, but Bai Ziqi didn't seem to realize it: "He did the calculations mentally but he didn't, and you still won."
