Chapter 307
Jiang Hengchuan did not make excessive demands, lest the Snake King would make a desperate effort to defeat the enemy, which would result in failure.
After briefly considering the pros and cons, the Snake King's wrinkled face relaxed slightly: "Okay."
Therefore, he swore an oath to the soul in accordance with Jiang Hengchuan's request. He was not allowed to use voice transmission to enter the secret tonight, he was not allowed to attack the two of them, and he was not allowed to escape midway.
After he finished swearing the soul oath according to strict procedures, Meng Qi quietly breathed a sigh of relief, finally solving the problem.
The Yuan Shen Oath is an oath based on one's own soul and Yuan Shen. It has a very strong binding force. Although the Yuan Shen becomes stronger after the internal and external exchanges, and there are many secret methods, there is no shortage of strong people who can forcibly exempt the oath or be able to withstand the backlash damage, but the Snake King is just A half-step outdoor scene, or a half-step outdoor scene that breaks through before even reaching the harmony between heaven and man. How can such high-end means be used?
Therefore, Meng Qi was slightly relieved.
"Go to that courtyard now." Meng Qi urged the Snake King to prevent him from coming into contact with other subordinates in order to prevent him from having nightmares at night.
The Snake King had no objection and took the lead, leaving the side of the small building and walking up and down without trying to find his subordinates.
Shortly after the three people left, the rickety building finally reached its limit and collapsed with a roar, smoke and dust flying everywhere, and the sound of breaking echoed over the pond.
In the pond, only the bones of the killers' bodies were left.
After a while, the three of them crossed North Street and arrived at the killer's yard. It looked ordinary, but Meng Qi could feel that there were killers lurking in every suitable hiding place. The security was extremely tight, but some of the killers' tracks were too obvious. Hidden flaws make you look like a beginner.
Their exposure attracted the attention of outsiders and served as a good cover-up for other hidden killers.
Dong Dong Dong, the Snake King held back his anger and knocked hard on the door.
The hidden killers all recognize their boss, but no one makes a move. What if he is pretending?
After a while, the small door creaked open, and a middle-aged man with a completely restrained breath saluted respectfully:
"Need any service?"
Li Xingkong has already spread the word, and everyone knows that he wants to take revenge on the Snake King. Even if he is not strong enough, he can still hide and deal with the Snake King's subordinates. Therefore, the person in charge of the Killer Yard thought that the Snake King came late at night to arrange to uproot Li Xingkong. A matter of power.
As for the news about the Snake King's house, due to the extremely fast process, the three people arrived very quickly, and the news has not been received yet.
"Let's talk after we go in." The Snake King did not show any aggrievedness at being threatened and maintained his leader's demeanor.
The ordinary-looking middle-aged man immediately stopped talking, ignored the two people behind the Snake King, and led the way through places where the killer was hidden.
Meng Qi and Jiang Hengchuan followed the Snake King, observing the surroundings casually and paying close attention to the Snake King's actions, fearing that he would convey messages through secret, pre-agreed gestures, words, etc.
The person in charge of the killer's courtyard is an excellent killer. His aura is completely restrained and looks no different from ordinary people. He can easily be ignored when walking in the crowd. If Meng Qi hadn't been able to let out his spirit and sense the flow of true energy and muscles. Reaction, I'm afraid I can't detect that his strength is enough to have seven orifices, and the inner world is just beginning to form.
Even if the strength is higher than others, it is easy to be assassinated by him.
After arriving in the room where he usually handles official business, he lowered his hands and stood quietly aside, waiting for the Snake King's instructions.
"This young master has a lost nephew who was abducted into the yard. Take him to identify him. Don't hide anything. Just listen to him." The Snake King was silent for a moment, followed Meng Qi's message into the secret, and repeated the story exactly.
The person in charge acted like a standard killer. Without asking any further questions, he leaned forward and said, "Yes, Snake King."
Jiang Hengchuan stayed to watch the Snake King, while Meng Qi and the person in charge stepped out of the room and prepared to go to where the killers slept.
"Where are the people Snake King has come to see in the past two days hiding?" As soon as he left the small courtyard, Meng Qi went straight in to see if he could deceive an answer. If not, he would consider suppressing his momentum and use the method of changing the sky and striking the earth to collapse the person in charge. Spirit.
As a killer, if you don't practice outstanding magical skills or completely change your mind, you will definitely have huge holes in your mind.
The person in charge was stunned, and following the Snake King's instructions, he subconsciously replied: "The entrance to the secret passage is in the room just now."
He has never seen that person. Could it be that he is the nephew of the swordsman in white?
Sure enough, there was a mysterious person hiding in the secret passage... Meng Qi felt that he had truly grasped the trace of the Wolf King, and immediately turned around and ran towards the room.
At this moment, the Snake King's hoarse voice sounded loudly, piercing the clouds and cracking the rocks:
"Run away!"
Before he finished speaking, the row of houses shook violently, and a few tiles fell off, smashing into pieces in the yard.
A black shadow burst out of the window. Before Meng Qi could take action, he rushed to the other side, climbed over the courtyard wall, and merged into the darkness. It was none other than the Snake King!
When the killer leader behind Meng Qi heard the Snake King's voice, he was startled for a moment, then turned around and ran away. Taking advantage of Meng Qi's opportunity to intercept the Snake King, he ran across the front courtyard and disappeared from sight.
Jiang Hengchuan jumped out of the window and saw that there was no trace of the Snake King. He was slightly annoyed: "I didn't expect that the Snake King broke out without any warning. Maybe it was because of the wrong taste."
Arriving at the killer's house is not considered halfway.
"Perhaps the words 'Don't hide anything, listen to him' made him alert, and then he deliberately and calmly ordered his subordinates to escape immediately when we were separated and alert the person in the secret passage." Meng Qi calmed down his annoyance and said He casually analyzed the reason, and at the same time took out the items given to him by Qingshou Catcher Toudaifei, and sent out a signal.
A stream of light rose into the sky, blooming into bright red fireworks. It looked like a normal thing for fun, but it contained an agreed-upon shape.
Although it may not be too late to find the exit at the other end of the secret passage and seal it, he still tried his best to find the exit at the other end of the secret passage, and since the Wolf King and other super masters may be hidden in the secret passage, Meng Qi did not want to go down hastily and fight with him in the darkness. The opponent who is accustomed to assassination will fight to the death, not to mention that there may be a trap inside!
Don't enter the woods, and the same goes for secret passages.
The two searched the room for a while and pulled a vase placed in a grid on the wall.
There was a crackling sound, and the stone bricks behind the screen collapsed, revealing a staircase going down. There was no light inside and it was pitch black.
After waiting for a while, Yu Wangyuan, Yinzhang's head catcher, arrived with a serious face and solemn expression. While asking, the skilled man boldly walked into the secret passage.
Jiang Hengchuan lit the fire and stood side by side with Meng Qi, following Yu Wangyuan. While briefly describing the incident, he was on guard against possible hidden weapons.
After walking up the steps, the secret passage began to become wider, with waves of water hitting the nose, and it was extremely humid.
"The exit at the other end is at Jinshui River and has been opened." Yu Wangyuan said slightly disappointed.
After a delay, I could only hope that the people inside escaped in a hurry and left some clues.
After turning two places where there were obviously dangerous institutions, the three of them saw several stone rooms. Only one was half-covered, and the rest were open. They were empty except for stone beds, tables and other items.
Yu Wangyuan waved his sleeves, and a strong wind blew up. The half-closed wooden door opened, and the interior of the last stone room was revealed.
Hiss, Meng Qi and others all took a breath of cold air, because there were neatly hung human skins inside!
Human skin without flesh and bones!
They don't seem to have been peeled off, because there are no cuts or signs of tearing. It seems that the "people" inside have suddenly disappeared.
This scene made Meng Qi immediately think of who was hiding here. It was not the Wolf King, but Lao Zhong who practiced the "Tian Mo Kung"!
It's him!
However, considering that he had followed Qiu Fei for a long time and used "Captain Cai" to investigate, he was probably very careful about the affairs of Dongyang Beppu. It was normal for him to appear in Maoling.
"He is a powerful demon." Yu Wangyuan, the powerful man in the exterior scene, had to make such a judgment based on the traces of human skin.
In the same half-step exterior scene, the gap between Lao Zhongtou and the Snake King is probably greater than the gap between the man who unites nature and man and the ordinary Nine Apertures!
"It's the Eight-Armed Tianlong and Yunling Three Eagles..." Jiang Hengchuan frowned.
"What?" Yu Wangyuan lost his voice. The Eight-Armed Heavenly Dragon was a resounding half-step outside scene. He was not only stronger than Qiu Fei, but he died tragically at the hands of the devil. This strength was at least close to that of the outside scene!
It turned out to be them... No wonder there was no trace of blood at the scene... No wonder they could no longer be found afterward... Meng Qi was also shocked. Old Zhong's strength had improved so much?
"Heavenly Demon Skill" is indeed a magic magic skill that develops rapidly. As long as there are enough masters to "suck" it, the low-level skills can be improved very quickly!
Jiang Hengchuan pointed to a piece of human skin: "The eight-armed celestial dragon has a mole between his eyebrows. I have fought against him and I will never admit his mistake."
"It seems that the opportunity fell into the hands of this terrifying demon..." He simultaneously transmitted a secret message to Meng Qi.
Yu Wangyuan regained his composure and muttered: "Things are getting more and more difficult. I have to ask the Zhoucheng Yamen to send someone to help."
After searching for a while, no other clues were found. The three of them came out of the secret passage, and the head catcher and detective who arrived later dealt with the killer and the things inside.
"There's a lot of movement tonight. Lady Han should be aware of it. It's best to stay put." Yu Wangyuan looked at the night sky and let out a breath.
Meng Qi and Jiang Hengchuan had no objections, so they walked out of North Street with Yu Wangyuan and returned to their respective residences.
What a coincidence that he actually found Lao Zhong when he was looking for the Wolf King... Meng Qi murmured as he walked. Suddenly, something moved in his heart, and with a flash of inspiration, he immediately turned around and re-entered North Street.
He picked up his sword and walked through the long street, arriving at the door of Han Sanniang's private residence.
This is an exquisite house with red lights, and a beautiful and childish maid stands at the door.
"Master Su, please." When the maid saw Meng Qi, she showed no signs of surprise and bowed to invite him in, as if she had been waiting for a long time.
Meng Qi said nothing and was not surprised. He followed the maid, walked around the screen wall, passed through the patio, and arrived at the flower hall.
There were two people sitting inside. One was fresh and refined, with a nose that made people want to pinch her. She was Han Sanniang, one of the biggest talkers in North Street. You couldn't tell it from her appearance.
Opposite her, a young man in white clenched his fist with his lips, coughed slightly, his face was pale, as if he had not recovered from a serious illness, and his expression seemed to be smiling but not smiling:
"You still know how to come."
He is just like Mr. Wang!
