Chapter 44: The Great Tomb of Shengyun County (Part 3)

As Shen Bai finished speaking, the woman in front of him had a stiff expression.

Shen Bai saw the woman's face clearly and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

The woman looked to be about twenty years old and was wearing black clothes.

Her face is as rosy as a peach, her eyebrows and eyes are beautiful, and her appearance is even better than Cheng Shuang's.

Even black clothes cannot hide a woman's proud figure.

The woman in black had a look of fear on her face.

In her eyes, Shen Bai was holding a lantern in one hand and a sword in the other, and he was full of murderous aura, like a weird creature in the darkness.

Especially those eyes, which were calm yet contained a hint of murderous intent.

The woman in black really didn't expect to encounter such an outrageous thing.

It’s just a small pawnshop, but there is such a master.

Just now, there was actually sword energy!
Outrageous!

"Do not kill me!"

To Shen Bai's surprise, the woman in black held her head in her hands, looking terrified and trembling.

Among all the people in the martial arts world that Shen Bai has met, this one is the most cowardly.

Shen Bai said with great interest: "Name, origin, don't be afraid, I'm not a man-eating monster."

The woman in black raised her head cautiously, then put it back into her arms and buried it. "Qin Shuang, my name is Qin Shuang, and I'm a disciple of the Thief Sect. I haven't dug up your ancestral graves, so please don't kill me."

Shen Bai: "?"

How come we ended up talking about our ancestral graves?

Are all of you thieves so direct?

and many more.

Thief door!

Shen Bai smiled and said, "So you are the thief disciples who stole the strange things from the Heaven Monitoring Division. It seems that you are really planning to cause trouble and have brought it to me."

As soon as these words came out, Qin Shuang raised his head abruptly.

Although he was very afraid of Shen Bai, he held his head high stubbornly.

"The Thieves' Sect didn't steal any strange objects. They wouldn't steal strange objects from the Heavenly Supervisor!"

Shen Bai smiled and said, "Oh, that's quite impressive. If it weren't for the Daomen Sect, who could have taken the things from the Tianjian Division? If I hand you over to the Tianjian Division, there will be a lot of rewards, right?"

As soon as these words came out, Qin Shuang, who was so vigorous just now, immediately wilted and looked dejected.

"It's really not the Thief Sect. Don't hand me over to the Heavenly Supervisor. It was the fox girl who took me away!"

"I came here because I heard about the fox girl, so I came to investigate the cause and clear the reputation of the thieves' sect?"

Shen Bai frowned: "Fox girl?"

"Wait, the Thief Sect has a reputation?"

Shen Bai really couldn't think of any reputation for this force that dug up people's ancestral graves.

Qin Shuang said seriously, "The Dao Men have always been brave enough to take responsibility for their actions. We dug the grave and we have never denied it, but this time it's a frame-up!"

Shen Bai touched his chin and said, "How do you prove that this was done by the fox girl? A weird creature that can take the initiative to steal weird things, I'm afraid no one will believe it if you tell others."

Qin Shuang shrank his neck and whispered, "The fox girl won't steal it on her own initiative, but what if someone uses the fox girl to harm themselves and steal it?"

"Harm yourself?" Shen Bai said, "Explain clearly."

Qin Shuang gestured: "If you are targeted by a fox girl, and you use her characteristics to make her bring you good things, you just need to be able to bear the price she pays... That's it."

When Shen Bai heard this, he suddenly felt a flash of light in his mind.

If what Qin Shuang said is true, isn't that just hiring a porter?

The difference lies in whether you can afford the cost of the porters.

Qin Shuang continued, "The man who drives the fox girl is actually a disciple of the Dao Sect, but he's a traitor and has joined the Shangwu Sect. I'm here to investigate his whereabouts and find evidence."

"He knows most of the people in the sect. I have only been in the sect for a short time. If he doesn't know me, he won't alert them."

Shen Bai walked back and forth and asked, "Any clues?" Qin Shuang shook his head and said, "No clues. I saw someone injured by a fox girl, and you chatted with the constable for a few minutes. I was curious and came here to explore to see if I could find any useful information. I didn't expect..."

"What didn't you expect?"

"I didn't expect you to catch me."

Qin Shuang said dejectedly.

Shen Bai fell into deep thought.

The room was silent, with only the sound of Shen Bai pacing back and forth.

"It's the evil sect again. This force is really like a maggot on the tarsal bone."

"If it's really as Qin Shuang said, the fox girl came to Shengyun County, and the person controlling the fox girl has a strange thing on his body, plus the Tianjiansi is about to arrive, the whole Shengyun County will be in chaos."

"I need to be careful and not get burned. No, Zhou Qing is in trouble."

Various thoughts were running through Shen Bai's mind, but what he was most worried about was Zhou Qing's situation.

As a constable in the yamen, Zhou Qing was bound to have intersections with these things.

Shengyun County is in chaos, and I'm afraid that the first fire will burn Zhou Qing.

"The fox girl has evil spirits, and she is also related to the Shang Evil Sect. For the sake of the evil spirits, I think we will have to get involved. Let's see what news Zhou Qing has first."

After a moment, Shen Bai made a decision.

Qin Shuang glanced at Shen Bai cautiously and rolled his eyes: "Um... Master, can I leave now?"

She knew that this time, she had shot herself in the foot.

In the small Shengyun County, there was actually a master in an ordinary pawnshop. Qin Shuang felt helpless.

Shen Bai came back to his senses and said with a smile: "I can't leave."

"what?"

Qin Shuang's face was dull: "Why?"

Shen Bai said: "Because I didn't get the news I wanted."

Qin Shuang was stunned.

Shen Bai said calmly, "I'm not stupid. If the thieves don't have any clues, would a force that's not good at fighting send its disciples here?"

"This is like the blind men and the elephant."

"Tell me your real purpose. Don't act so silly. No one will believe you."

With no clues and no expertise in combat, you send someone here just to clear your reputation?

If this matter gets out, Shen Bai estimates that anyone who believes it will have some problems with his brain.

Qin Shuang gritted his teeth and said nothing.

Shen Bai shook his head: "I don't want to do anything too bloody, but if you force me to do it, then there's nothing I can do."

As he spoke, he raised his sword and approached Qin Shuang.

Qin Shuang covered his collar and asked, "What do you want to do?"

Shen Bai smiled and said, "You misunderstood. I'm not interested in your body. No, to be precise, I'm also very interested. If such a beautiful body is torn into many pieces, it will surely not be beautiful anymore."

Split into many parts?
Qin Shuang widened his eyes.

Then, a bloody and horrifying scene emerged in her mind.

Qin Shuang gritted his teeth.

She knew Shen Bai was not lying because she felt a faint murderous aura.

Seeing Shen Bai approaching, Qin Shuang could no longer bear it.

The silliness disappeared, and instead, his eyes were filled with intelligence and spirit.

Everything that happened just now was just an act.

"A large tomb. There is a large tomb in Shengyun County. The Shangemen wants to steal it through the fox girl. That strange object is also a key thing."
