Chapter 34 Secretly following
"Brother Lin!"

Su Haoming walked over with a happy face.

But after getting closer, he suddenly stopped and looked at Lin Yu hesitantly and said, "Strange...Brother Lin, why can't I sense your breathing and heartbeat at all?"

"Because the corpse has no breathing and heartbeat."

Lin Yu explained with a smile: "This is the body I restored with healing magic. In essence, it is just a living corpse. My consciousness does not exist in this body, but is hidden in the holy book and is indirectly controlled by mental power."

He paused, then smiled and said, "Of course, it's very simple to get the cardiopulmonary system working. I'm just too lazy to waste my energy on it!"

Before he finished speaking, the heart of this body really started beating again.

Su Haoming's face was filled with amazement, and he immediately said, "Brother Lin, since you already have a body, shouldn't we catch up with you?"

"Of course!"

Lin Yu smiled and snapped his fingers.

In an instant, the two people's bodies were covered by dim light and then disappeared from the spot.

……

……

"The Jinwu Guards have been ordered to confiscate Chang'an black tea!"

"Anyone who secretly stores and sells them will be punished severely!"

The dimly lit streets of the ghost city were filled with chaotic scenes.

After Lu Lingfeng arrived here with his confidants and Chang'an catchers, they saw someone secretly trading Chang'an black tea. They immediately removed their disguises and began to arrest all the people involved along the street.

With the title of Jinwu Guard, the capturers in Chang'an instantly became arrogant.

They usually avoid the ghost market, but now they dare to go into the ghost market in groups of three or two, holding long knives and arresting ghost market merchants selling Chang'an black tea with ferocious looks.

"Get out of the way!"

"The Jinwu Guards are investigating the case. All outsiders, please get out of the way!"

"You! Just you! Stand there and don't move!"

"If you dare to move, don't blame the Tang sword in my grandfather for being blind!"

Arrogant shouts came from both sides of the long street. Su Wuming's mouth twitched when he heard them. He couldn't help but sideways his eyes and sneak a peek at the reaction of the genuine Jinwu Guard next to him.

Fortunately, Lu Lingfeng did not intend to blame these catchers. He just walked on the street with an expressionless face, and his sharp eyes searched through the chaotic crowd like arrows, trying to find the fish that had escaped in the chaos.

At this moment, two Chang'an capturers came through the crowd, dragging a terrified tea vendor to them.

The two men stopped, and the two capturers immediately saluted and said excitedly: "Lieutenant Su, General Lu, this guy is the tea dealer we just arrested. He said he is willing to reveal the delivery location of Chang'an black tea!"

……oh?

Su Wuming and Lu Lingfeng looked at each other.

The latter coughed twice, put on an official demeanor, and said calmly: "Tell me, where is it?"

The tea vendor's eyes wandered between the two of them, and he asked cautiously, "Will you let me go just by telling me?"

"Ok?"

Lu Lingfeng immediately frowned, scaring the tea vendor so much that he shrank his neck.

Su Wuming quickly stepped in front of Lu Lingfeng and warned him, "Your words are superfluous. This man is a dignified Lieutenant General of the Jinwu Guard. As long as your information is accurate enough, redeeming your punishment for meritorious service will be no problem!"

The two of them, one playing the good cop and the other the bad cop, easily subdued the tea vendor.

He hesitated for a moment and whispered, "It's where Yin Julang used to live. There's a secret door there, which connects to the complex underground passages in the Ghost Market. We used to trade in the secret passages."

Sure enough!

Su Wuming thought to himself.

Lu Lingfeng frowned, stared at him and said slowly: "Do you know the consequences of deceiving this general?"

The tea vendor was so frightened that he immediately knelt on the ground and said with a wry smile, "Sir, how dare I lie to you?"

"To be honest with you, we certainly wouldn't have dared to share this kind of news before, but now that Yin Julang has suffered divine punishment, we've been discussing it among ourselves, thinking it might be related to this black tea, and so we're all very scared!"

"To be honest, I'm dying to have nothing to do with this tea. How could I possibly deceive you?"

Lu Lingfeng's brows relaxed, and he tilted his head and whispered, "It doesn't seem like a lie."

Su Wuming snorted coldly and said calmly: "If that's the case, why are you still selling Chang'an black tea today?"

The tea vendor was stunned when he heard this, and immediately began to stammer.

Su Wuming raised the corner of his mouth and chuckled as he said, "Speaking the truth to people and telling lies to ghosts is the basic quality of merchants in the Ghost Market. If you can't even do that, how can you survive in a place like this!"

"..."

Lu Lingfeng's face turned ugly, and he waved his hand and said, "Tie him up!"

After the Chang'an police dragged away the begging tea vendor, Su Wuming whispered, "Although most of his words were lies, his attitude when he talked about Yin Julang was absolutely true."

"Since yesterday, the prestige of Yin Julang and the forces behind him has greatly declined. These tea vendors are no longer as respectful of them as before. The place he mentioned is indeed worth exploring."

"Then let's go and take a look!" Lu Lingfeng nodded and waved his hand, "Leave some people to watch the suspect, and the rest will follow me!" "Yes!"

The capturers all started to move, one group stayed behind to guard the suspect, and the other group rushed forward with Lu Lingfeng.

Soon, everyone arrived at Yin Julang's residence.

But unlike yesterday, the mansion was now dark, without any lights or candles.

There were still many homeless people from the ghost market lying on the stone steps in front of the mansion. When they saw Lu Lingfeng, Su Wuming and others coming with knives, they were immediately terrified, and hurriedly climbed up from the stone steps and fled into the surrounding alleys.

Lu Lingfeng didn't order anyone to chase after them. He glanced around and whispered, "Be careful of ambushes."

"Yes!"

The three Jinwu Guards and a group of capturers drew their Tang swords from their waists and slowly walked into the mansion.

Just as the leading Jinwu Guard stepped over the threshold, a sharp sound of breaking through the air came from the beams of the house.

"Ding!"

Lu Lingfeng cut the arrow off with a single blow, glared at the beams, and shouted, "Who?!"

A dark shadow flashed on the beam and rushed out of the window on the right side of the mansion.

"Chase!"

Lu Lingfeng shouted loudly, ran out of the mansion first, and rushed towards the alley on the right.

Everyone followed with torches in hand, but when they reached the end of the alley, they discovered that it was a dead end.

"What about people?"

Jinwu Guard Xiao Wu looked at the wall in front of him in a daze.

Lu Lingfeng glanced around and quickly locked onto the bricks that were raised on the ground.

He strode forward and lifted up the floor tile, revealing a dark hole.

"It's a secret passage!"

The three Jinwu Guards looked at each other and then at Lu Lingfeng.

"General, do you want to go in?"

"..."

Lu Lingfeng frowned, thought for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "Go in!"

"and many more!"

Su Wuming was too weak to enter the secret passage, so he arrived late. Seeing Lu Lingfeng and the others about to enter, he hurriedly stopped them. Panting, he ran to Lu Lingfeng and the others and whispered, "General Zhonglang, don't you think this is going a little too smoothly?"

"Of course I know that!"

Lu Lingfeng glanced at him and said, "But you want me to watch him escape? I'm sorry, General, I can't do that!"

As he spoke, he glanced at the people behind him and said loudly, "Capture the tea vendors, and this general will commend you for your achievements. As for this tunnel, those of you with families should not take the risk!"

Before he finished speaking, Lu Lingfeng snatched the torch from a Chang'an capturer and jumped into the secret passage with three Jinwu guards.

Seeing this, Su Wuming and the catcher beside him looked at each other in confusion.

The catcher, Lao Jia, hesitated and said, "Sir, the county lieutenant..."

"Ugh!"

Su Wuming sighed and looked at them. "No matter what, we must not be led by the enemy. Follow my orders. Form teams of four and spread out to find other entrances to the secret passage."

"Remember, gather first after you find it, and don't act rashly!"

Everyone bowed and said, "Yes!"

Soon, Su Wuming and the catchers scattered away.

As the crowd's footsteps gradually faded away, two blurry figures quietly emerged.

"Fortunately I followed you!"

Su Haoming couldn't help but sigh, "Lu Lingfeng was really reckless in the early stages!"

Lin Yu next to him glanced at him, smiled slightly and said, "Have you thought about how to make your debut?"

"……Um?"

Su Haoming was slightly stunned.

Lin Yu chuckled and said, "You and I have been following secretly, so you are not planning to reveal your identity, are you?"

"Don't forget, you've already embarked on the path to transcendence. How are you going to explain all this magical power?"

"And my accomplice, if you reveal your identity, you'll probably have to spend some time to invent a reasonable story. Why bother?"

Su Haoming admitted that he was convinced, so he humbly asked for advice: "Brother Lin, whatever you say, I will do!"

Lin Yu laughed and said, "Didn't I tell you that there's no need to risk your identity? If you want to make a big move, then just put on a vest and make up a random background, and let others imagine it!"
