The Emperor is Above

Chapter 265 I'm going to the City Guard Camp to ask for help
Hearing Da Niu's shouting, Qing Yi's expression changed.

He hurried to the gate of the courtyard, and saw that the person who came was not only Da Niu but also Mu Yi.

Seeing Mu Yi holding his left arm with a distorted expression, but no bleeding from any external injuries, Qing Yi asked with both concern and anger: "How did Mu Yi break his arm? Was it the city guards' fault?"

"My lord, let Daniu tell you what happened in detail!" Mu Yi forced a smile while enduring the pain, but he couldn't say more. There was only worry in his eyes.

Seeing this, Old Man Shi, who was following closely behind Qing Yi, couldn't help but frown slightly. He waved behind him, and an exquisite jade bottle flew into his hand.

He casually threw it to Mu Yi: "Realign the bones yourself, find a secluded place to apply it evenly, three times a day, and it will be completely healed in a few days."

"Thank you, Mr. Shi!"

Qing Yi first expressed his gratitude to the thin old man, and then asked Daniu with a serious look,

"Daniu, what exactly is going on? Isn't Brother Gongsun with Shi Ludan? Why was he captured by the city guards for no reason?"

The usually calm Da Niu looked anxious at this moment: "Master, not only was Gongsun Jiazai captured by the city guards, but also our eight private soldiers, and also Shi Ludan and his dozen rangers. We have to rescue them quickly--"

"I know, of course we have to rescue them as soon as possible!" Qing Yi patiently comforted Daniu, calming his anxious emotions, "Can you tell me what happened?"

After all, having experienced such a large-scale battle as the Battle of Lonely Hill, Daniu took a few deep breaths and then explained in detail: "Two young men under Shi Ludan's command disappeared inexplicably today. According to him, this is the third time it has happened.

The previous two times he thought that other rangers were using vicious means to seize territory, but after asking all his ranger friends in the capital, he got no information.

Later, he reported the case to the city guards for help, but still got no results. Unexpectedly, the teenagers who disappeared half a year ago have not been found yet, and two more were missing today.

Shi Ludan had no choice but to seek help from Gongsun Jiazai. After all, a sixth-rank upper-level warrior is at a high level, with sharp eyes, ears and a keen mind, so it is easier for him to find some clues. "

"Brother Gongsun has always been calm and careful. It should not be a problem for him to go out and search for the two missing people. But why were they all captured by the city guards?"

Qing Yi understood that Shi Ludan, as a ranger at the bottom of the capital, immediately sought help from Gongsun Wu after discovering something was wrong. This was not only because Gongsun Wu had a higher level of cultivation, but also because Gongsun Wu was willing to help these abandoned children at the bottom of society.

Daniu took two breaths and continued, "We didn't know why the city guards wanted to arrest people, and we were only focused on helping Shi Ludan find people.

Based on what Shi Ludan and the others had said about their usual activities and what the two teenagers were going to do today, Gongsun Jiazai quickly found his target in a remote and abandoned courtyard in the lower city.

But you don't know, master, that the two young men we saw when we entered the city yesterday went out alive early this morning, but in just over an hour they turned into two piles of white bones.

There was no trace of blood on the bones, just like dry bones that had been exposed to the wind and sun for many years. There was no blood on the ground around them, which was creepy to look at. "

During the Battle of Guqiu, although Daniu and other Guqiu private army and militia did not directly participate in the most brutal battle, they beheaded many people in the process of chasing and killing the enemy, and cleaned up tens of thousands of corpses of wild people on the battlefield. They were not greenhouse flowers that had not been stained with human blood.

But today's incident revealed an evil atmosphere from beginning to end. Even a young man like Daniu, who was a thick-skinned boy, couldn't help but shudder when he thought of the weird scene at that time.

In fact, it was not only him. Tun Shigu, Xing Shu and Niu Niu could not help but shiver in unison when they heard this scene.

Old Man Shi gently comforted the frightened Niuniu, his skinny face almost wrinkled into a ball: "This monster is getting more and more unscrupulous. In the past, it only hurt people at night, but I didn't expect it to be so rampant during the day now!"

Qing Yi suppressed his anger and turned to ask him, "Old Man Shi, is the sudden arrest of people by the city guards related to the news that the city guards blocked the monsters from eating people?"

"Eh? Master, you and Old Man Shi know about this?"

Daniu looked up at Qing Yi and Old Man Shi with doubtful eyes, and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Gongsun Jiazai also guessed so at the time. The two teenagers were killed in more than an hour, leaving only two clean white bones. It was definitely not an ordinary ranger who killed them, but a method similar to that of evil monsters. If Shi Ludan and his group of rangers and evil teenagers had not been familiar with each other and recognized the tattered clothes and some swords and accessories around, they would not have recognized that the two teenagers had become two remains.

Just as Gongsun Jiazai was helping Shi Ludan and the others collect the two skeletons, a patrol of the city guards suddenly arrived and accused us of murder and wanted to arrest us and put us in jail.

When Daniu said this, his eyes bulged with anger: "Gongsun Jiazai is not willing to suffer this unjust accusation. He just tried to explain to the city guards, but they blew the whistle to attract reinforcements.

Master, you don't know that the reinforcement was the captain of the city guard Luqiu Mufeng. After recognizing Gongsun Jiazai, he ordered his forcible arrest without mercy. Anyone who resisted would be killed without mercy.

Although the strength of Gongsun Jiazai is equal to that of Luqiu Mufeng, the cultivation level of our brothers in Guqiu is also far beyond that of the city guards. Unfortunately, they are not as numerous and powerful as the civil servants.

With the help of Shang Ludan and his gang, everyone had no choice but to surrender. Even the head of the Gongsun family was threatened by hundreds of arrows and had to be captured as well. "

Qing Yi didn't know about the frustration and anger that Luqiu Mufeng felt when he was paraded outside the city gate yesterday to boast about his achievements, but the conflict outside the middle school city gate was enough to make the other party hostile to the people of Guqiu, and he would inevitably take the opportunity to retaliate.

When Tu Shigu heard this, he blinked his eyes and asked, "Daniu, since the chief of Gongsun family was captured by the city guards, how did you and Mu Yi escape?"

Mu Yi shook his head and smiled bitterly. Daniu's face immediately turned red. He hurriedly said in defense: "Sergeant Gu, don't think that I am a cowardly deserter who only cares about escaping death.

At that time, Mu Yi and I found an exquisite mutton-fat jade pendant in the dilapidated yard. We searched for it everywhere in the yard and happened to escape capture by the city guards on the other side of the house.

Before Gongsun Jiazai was captured, he specifically told us to come to the master for help immediately, otherwise if we were all captured by Luqiu Mufeng, who would be able to inform the master? "

"Brother Shi Gu, neither Daniu nor Mu Yi are cowards!"

Qing Yi gently patted Da Niu's broad shoulders. His voice seemed calm, but in fact, there was almost fire in his eyes.

Daniu nodded repeatedly and said, "In order to protect me, Mu Yi blocked a full-strength attack from a city guard Sima, and his arm was broken. Fortunately, I used a beam to knock the Sima away, otherwise Mu Yi would have been captured.

By the way, Master, this jade ornament was picked up by Mu Yi and I in that dilapidated house! Shi Ludan and his men don’t have this thing, and we don’t know if it has any connection with that monster! "

After taking the jade ornament and observing it carefully, I found that it was not big, only one inch long and three points wide, but it was made of top-quality mutton-fat jade, and the craftsmanship of the carving was also masterful. Those who could afford this kind of jade ornament must be either rich or noble.

Qing Yi stared at the jade ornaments, his worries growing stronger. He suppressed his anger and said slowly, "There are strange monsters hiding in the capital doing evil and eating people. How can the city guards let the people of Guqiu suffer an injustice?

This matter must be resolved immediately and thoroughly. Otherwise, given Luqiu Mufeng's temperament, Brother Gongsun and others will inevitably suffer losses and grievances in the city guard camp, and the ministers in the court may even make a big fuss about it."

At this point he turned around and bowed to Old Man Shi, saying, "I wanted to have tea and chat with you today, but now I can only wait for the next opportunity. I have to go to the city guard camp to ask for help."

Xing Shu, the daughter of the Marquis of Xing, who had been eavesdropping, also poked her head out from behind the door and shouted, "Sergeant Guqiu Yi, I will go with you to get the person back. If Commander Qiu Yuan doesn't release him, I will complain to the king and father!"

"Hold on, hold on, don't be in a hurry!"

Old Man Shi hurriedly stopped Qing Yi and Xing Shu, and said with a wry smile, "Don't worry, Yi boy. The city guards have been blocking the news for more than half a year, and they are also acting under the orders of the king. However, what Luqiu Mufeng did this time was really simple and rough, and it was a bit too much.

If you two go to the city guard camp to ask for someone, you will not only fail to achieve your goal, but will also give others a chance to talk about you. I still have some face, so I will accompany you."
