Way of the Devil

Chapter 559: Investigation one

Views:

After leaving the Demon Palace, Lu Sheng inspected the surrounding environment again. With his current speed, it only takes a stick of incense to inspect Qiuyue County, and it only took half a day to determine the threat level of the evil spirits in the entire Jiuming Prefecture.

Under the induction of the soul, it is thousands of miles away in an instant. Things like evil spirits, like fireflies in the dark night, don't need too precise and fine sensing, only rough and fuzzy perception can determine their orientation and quantity.

After scanning the entire Jiuming State, Lu Sheng still had no specific ideas about the strength of the military master. After searching for a long time but failed, he decided to go to Yindu himself.

Yindu is the most important place among the three sects and three clans. Apart from the two military masters' lairs here, the headquarters of the other three clans and three clans are also located near Yindu.

Lu Sheng's purpose was to go to the Yuan Guang family and other big clans to obtain specific information on the military master level.

Qiuyue County of Jiuming Prefecture is more than 900,000 miles away from Yindu, but with Lu Sheng driving at full speed, it took only one day to reach its border accurately.

... ... ... ... ... ... .

Yindu Mingzhao defensive circle, Congshan defense line.

The towering and majestic continuous city wall, like a black snake, straddles the rolling mountains.

The city wall is black, covered with ferocious spikes, and every other section there will be a golden symbol shining halo. From time to time, teams of patrol monks flew past in the sky.

Below the city wall, at the gate of the county city, two teams of tall guards in full armor, wearing black armor and holding sharp spears, were staring at the passing pedestrians with abnormal vigilance.

Teams of caravans, horse-drawn carts and ox carts, as well as porters and farmers on the road, came in and out of the city gate in an endless stream.

"Stop! Where did you come from?" A group of guards stopped several ox carts, and the leading team asked sharply, their sharp eyes quickly swept over the drivers of the ox carts in front of them.

The driver of the ox cart was a young man, wearing yellow and black cloth with patches. The face is dull, with a Chinese character face, and the eyes are not very agile.

"Master Huijun, we came from the direction of Duanshan County, and we have checked many times along the way."

"Where's Lu Yin?" The guard stretched out his hand and shook it.

The man quickly took Lu Yin out of his arms and took out a piece of light yellow leather paper, unfolded it and handed it to the guard.

At the back of the convoy, Lu Sheng was wrapped in a black robe, walking calmly at the end. Unlike the driver of the convoy, when he passed the city gate, the Qianyangzong logo embroidered on his robe made several guards look respectful and let him enter without saying anything.

Passing through the city gate, behind is a flat green field with surging wheat waves.

The winter has passed, and so has the disaster of the evil spirits, and the surviving civilians have also begun to sow and cultivate again.

Lu Sheng didn't mean to disturb the local forces. If he came here this time, he would definitely not be able to get information about the military master if he applied normally, unless he was willing to show his military master's strength, but this would be too shocking.

You must know that it has only been thirty years since his rise to the present. In thirty years, he has broken through from an ordinary person to the level of a military master. It is inevitable that there will be no one before or after. sense survey.

Therefore, Lu Sheng planned to never fully expose his strength unless it was absolutely necessary.

It is also best to use a secret method to search for information this time.

At the speed of a normal person, Lu Sheng walked through a large field and farmland, observing the most prosperous and powerful capital in Dayin with his naked eyes.

Across the field, in front is a second circle of defense network composed of a ring of towers.

The gray-white city towers are like tall towers, and some kind of feather-like gray light slowly floats around them, obviously having some unknown effect.

When passing by this place, Lu Sheng's soul tried to scan the towers, but found that these buildings have the function of isolating the soul from scanning.

Moo! !

In the large wasteland on the right side of the road, there is a wide area like a horse farm. When Lu Sheng passed by, many of the human and monster races were struggling to pull a huge one-eyed black bull more than five meters high.

The rune chains with curse marks kept trying to wrap around the black bull, but they were immediately slipped away by it.

Lu Sheng paused and took a few glances.

"It's another black-eyed bull. What are the people from the Jing family buying this beast like crazy?" There were also many people on the side of the road, like Lu Sheng, who stopped and watched.

Someone was communicating in a low voice. Although the sound was transmitted through the sound, for Lu Sheng's incomparably powerful perception spirit, the sound transmission at this distance was almost the same as a loudspeaker roaring next to the ear.

"I heard that there is a blood sacrifice. Last time, the external directors of the Jing family bought thousands of catties of black fruit. No matter whether it is good or bad, several large orchards outside the city have made a fortune."

"Are they going to blackmail Chen Guo now? I'll do it later."

"Now I want something else..."

Lu Sheng glanced at the black-eyed cow. He had never seen this kind of creature. Its pure brute force was about four or five stripes, which was very powerful for ordinary people.

After a brief pause, he continued on, picking up speed. Before the sun went down, he finally entered the main city of Yindu.

The entire Yindu seems to be carved with a regular knife ruler, precisely measuring a knife.

Every residential house is no more than ten meters high, every tower is absolutely the same style, and every attic has a standard square roof without any tricks.

Lu Sheng merged into a huge flow of people, walked into the square market in front of Yindu, passed through a gray and white archway, and there were shops full of cultural relics, antiques and tombs on both sides.

The faces of the crowd here do not have the slightest fear brought about by the turmoil of evil spirits, as if everything is still in a period of peace.

Amidst the noisy chatter, they were either discussing the delicious food of the newly opened restaurant, or chatting about strange stories and anecdotes circulating in the market. Or where the lady in the brothel is going to have a dance party or something.

For a moment, Lu Sheng seemed to have returned to ancient China in the real earth period. If it wasn't for the strange monsters passing by from time to time, maybe he really thought he had returned to the earth to travel through time and space.

Boom.

Suddenly a petite body bumped into Lu Sheng's right shoulder.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it!" A girl with a soft appearance hurriedly apologized in panic.

The girl was wearing a pure light green dress, and the gray-black ribbon around her waist delicately outlined her waist. Her long black hair hangs over her shoulders, her lips are ruddy, and her complexion is snow-white. At first glance, she looks like a young lady from a high-class family.

"It's okay, just be more careful next time." Lu Sheng nodded slightly.

The girl smiled shyly, bowed slightly to Lu Sheng and saluted, then quickly walked past.

She took small steps along the street, and quickly rushed into a small alley. There were already three young women in gray clothes with a bee embroidered on their backs waiting, and two of them were holding cigarettes and swallowing big mouthfuls. Clouds and fog.

"How about embroidering?" A woman standing near the entrance of the alley asked quickly in a low voice, took a deep breath on the cigarette in her hand, threw it on the ground and stamped it out.

"What else can I do? I'm going to go out, and there are still people who can't succeed?" The girl in the green skirt raised her head slightly and smiled, "I got it, that guy is an outsider, and he looks like a country bumpkin when he enters the city. It's not like a person who is short of money, but his knowledge is a little bit poor, and he doesn't know where to throw his eyes when he is randomly ticked off by his old lady.

Today, my mother's first time will be given to him. "

She smoothly pulled out from her bulging chest, and immediately pulled out a small black money bag.

Grabbing the purse and shaking it lightly, there was a crackling sound coming from inside.

"Sounds like a lot."

"Open it and have a look. This is our third order today. I didn't expect to meet this kind of fat sheep."

"I guess there are seven or eight hundred!"

A smug smile appeared on the corner of Xiu'er's mouth, she hooked the money bag with her slender hand and shook it slightly, and immediately tore the bag away from the rope.

Inside are brilliant pieces of golden leaves.

"Great harvest!" Xiuer's pretty face was startled, and then she was overjoyed.

"Little guy, money is very important to you?" Suddenly a deep and deep voice came from behind her.

Xiu'er's pretty face froze immediately, and before the smile on her face could spread, she saw the good sisters in front of her all froze, their complexions slowly turning pale, and thin sweat began to ooze from their foreheads and temples beads.

Lu Sheng stood at the entrance of the alley, quietly watching the girls in front of him. An inexplicable huge pressure firmly pressed on the girls present.

Especially that Xiu'er from before felt her heartbeat speed up instantly and she broke out in cold sweat.

Lu Sheng cared about her very much, he had just arrived in Yindu, and he ran into a surprise head-on. A little girl was able to approach and bump into his body without him noticing, and even stole his money bag.

It wasn't that he released the water on purpose, but the money bag was really stolen.

The opponent did not rely on tricks, but a special ability, a wonderful ability that seemed to be invisible.

"As expected of Yindu, hidden dragons and crouching tigers, I never imagined that someone could steal things from me." Lu Sheng stared at Xiuer's back with emotion.

"This... my lord... It's just a small purse, Xiu'er will give it back to you, your lord has a lot..." Xiu'er turned around slowly, her beautiful eyes showed a sense of pity.

"I can give you that little money." Lu Sheng interrupted her. "Tell me, what did you rely on to steal from me?"

Although he didn't pay attention carefully, the person who can get the money bag from her is definitely not an ordinary person.

On the way into Yindu, he encountered no less than a dozen pickpockets, but he easily opened the third hand.

Only the girl Xiu'er in front of him didn't let him notice it at all.

"Er... Can I not say it? Big brother, Xiu'er actually has difficulties..." The girl showed a miserable and pitiful look.

"Of course, it's your freedom to say no." Lu Sheng nodded. "However... you have to pay the corresponding price if you take my money."

"What price?!" Xiuer faintly felt bad.

"For example, like this." Lu Sheng slowly stretched out an index finger.

boom! ! !

In an instant, several huge invisible forces grabbed all the other girls in the alley and slammed them against the wall behind them.

The sound of bones breaking one after another, several girls rolled their eyes, vomited blood and passed out.

"Don't!!!" Xiu'er screamed hastily. But it was already too late, a large stream of blood gushed out of one of the girls, and was clearly on the verge of death.
