Void Sword Repair

Chapter 12 Undercurrents surging
Mu Jianqiu raised his head to look at the White Pagoda, and said devoutly, "This is the king's bedroom!"

"Oh?" Shen Hao couldn't help but look twice before following him into the hall.

In the magnificent General's Hall, three female corpses lay quietly in the center of the hall.Beside the female corpse, many men and women were already looking closely.

Mu Jianqiu said, "You can check it yourself, the king left three corpses as clues."

Shen Hao nodded and hurried over.

Mu Jianqiu said again: "If you can catch the murderer, you will definitely be rewarded." After speaking, he hurried out of the hall.

Shen Hao ignored it, and walked to a corpse with few people on his own, and bent down to check it.

The deceased looked terrified, his whole face was flat, and his skin color was like that withered and rotten dead wood pile, which was abnormal.What's even weirder is that there are no wounds on her whole body, and it is unknown how the murderer did it.

Shen Hao pondered for a moment, then made a sword finger with his palm, and drew out a weak sword intent, piercing into the woman's body.

Unexpectedly, the sword intent seemed to hit a stone wall, and suddenly returned with agitation.

Seeing that Shen Hao was pondering in a decent manner, the young men and women who were watching showed some strange smiles, and there were ridicule, surprise, and doubt in the smiles.After all, in the eyes of others, Shen Hao at this moment is still a brat.

"It's strange, all the veins are blocked?" Shen Hao ignored the people around him, and checked on his own.

At this time, Zhou Yan suddenly ran over and said in a low voice, "I know! I know!" In order to avoid people's eyes and ears, he pretended to be mysterious and attracted Shen Hao and the others to the open space of the hall, and said in a low voice: "I guess , must have been done by the evil mage!"

"Evil mage?" Shen Hao was a little unfamiliar with this word.

Zhou Yan hastily explained: "These people's tricks are not righteous, and their consciousness has been corrupted by sorcery! As a result, they have become brutal by nature, killing people at the sight of them, and going mad at the sight of blood. In addition to killing people, they also eat people's souls and seize people's souls! Do some unconscionable things. Many of these people are fugitives and murderers above the reward order."

Hearing the sound, Shen Hao sneered, what evil mage?It is clearly a sign of a cultivator going mad, it is simply ignorance!He pondered for a moment, then asked the doubt in his heart: "Then why only kill women?"

Zhou Yan was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a long time, he said, "There is another possibility, this person is practicing a kind of yin-harvesting magic, which is why he sucked the blood of so many women."

Shen Hao did not object to his statement, this kind of sorcery also exists in the cultivation world, and it is indeed very possible.

"Well, let's act together at night and see if there will be any gains." Shen Hao looked at the corpses and said.

At this time, Xu Ying suddenly said: "Master, let me be the bait tonight! Maybe you can catch a big fish."

Shen Hao looked at Xu Ying, glared at her, and said sharply, "Nonsense."

He didn't want this newly acquired disciple to disappear like this.After all, the opponent's strength, identity, and number of people are unknown, let alone how to keep the bait.

Xu Ying was caught by his sharp eyes, and shut her mouth timidly.

Of course Zhou Yan wanted to use this to have fun and keep teasing her.Of course, Xu Ying's cold eyes must have been exchanged, but Zhou Yan laughed and ignored her at all.

Shen Hao shook his head, interrupted him, and said solemnly: "Zhou Yan, take us to the alley last night, there may be clues."

Hearing the sound, Zhou Yan nodded, got up and walked out.

At this time, a young man entered the hall without haste, followed by dozens of black-armored swordsmen, who happened to block Zhou Yan and his party.

Shen Hao glanced at the young man, who had sword eyebrows and star eyes, a warm and fair complexion, like a piece of uncut jade.He was dressed in a luxurious black robe, with a pattern that looked like a dragon but not a dragon embroidered on his chest. He was shaking a gold silk folding fan in his hand, and his demeanor was calm and unhurried.

At this time, a swordsman drew out his long sword, pointed at Zhou Yan and the others, and said a lot of things that Shen Hao didn't understand.

Although Shen Hao didn't understand, Zhou Yan did.

Seeing that Zhou Yan's face suddenly became extremely ugly, he said angrily: "I am the third son of the Blackthorn family, how could I just kneel down to others casually?"

Zhou Yan, who was enraged, didn't care to speak the local language anymore, and unconsciously spoke the accustomed mainland language.

At this time, the young man stopped his subordinates, showed a warm smile, clasped his fists and said: "It turns out that you are the son of the Zhou family, you are disrespectful and disrespectful, blame me for not being able to discipline you well." His mainland language is as smooth as clouds and flowing water, and is extremely fluent.

After finishing speaking, the young man looked at everyone: "Jiang Motong, the third prince of Guangling City, is honored to meet you all."

The people in the hall stopped their movements and bowed to him one after another.

Zhou Yan turned his face away angrily, and muttered in a low voice: "The prince is amazing!"

Jiang Motong seemed to hear it, but also didn't seem to hear it.He ignored Zhou Yan, but looked at Shen Hao for a long time.Then he said to everyone: "Mo Tong is also investigating this case, I wonder if you would like to give me a helping hand? Of course, my reward is not less than General Mu's." This sentence, he still spoke the mainland language.

"I am willing, I am willing." Several young men and women ran over, they thought that being with a prince must be much better than being with a general.

Shen Hao saw some clues, it seems that the relationship between the crown prince and General Mu is not harmonious, and they even have to fight for people to investigate the case?What made Shen Hao curious was why he only recruited outsiders but not locals from Guangling City?

At this time, Jiang Motong smiled and nodded to everyone, looked at Shen Hao again and asked, "Where is this little brother? Do you have any intentions?"

The third prince's words instantly turned Shen Hao into the focus, and everyone looked at him in unison.

Shen Hao had seen this kind of gaze a lot in his previous life, how could he feel uncomfortable?He pondered to himself for a moment, then stared at Jiang Motong and asked, "Why me?"

Jiang Motong closed the folding fan, glanced coldly at the hall, and whispered to Shen Hao: "The wall has ears! Little brother, would you like to talk to Mo Tong?"

Shen Hao was puzzled, but his face was expressionless.Judging from Jiang Motong's words and deeds, this person is completely targeting himself.Although he doesn't look like a child at heart, his appearance is an out-and-out child.The only possibility of being noticed by a prince is that he saw General Mu fighting against himself.

As for the medicine sold in the third prince's gourd, he didn't understand either.However, there is a saying in the comprehension world that if you don't enter the tiger's den, you will be safe with the tiger's cub.Thinking of this sentence, Shen Hao hooked the corners of his mouth, and said relaxedly: "Okay, thank you, Third Prince, for your kindness!"

Jiang Motong's smile became stronger, and he said loudly: "Thank you all, everyone go to Mo Tong's mansion first and wait, I will go there later."

"Okay!" A group of people rushed out in a hurry.

Jiang Motong looked at Shen Hao and his party who stayed behind, made a gesture of invitation, and said, "Everyone, come with Motong."

Shen Hao smiled slightly when he heard the sound, and said politely: "It's a great honor."

Shen Hao and Jiang Mo walked out of the hall together and went to his mansion.Along the way, Jiang Motong kept chatting about family matters, and occasionally asked about Shen Hao's family background.

Shen Hao occasionally made half a sentence, but most of them ignored it, especially about family background, he didn't even mention a word.He knows that for a stranger who doesn't know each other, the more he knows the other party, the closer he is to the cliff.

Jiang Motong was not angry at Shen Hao's half-cold attitude, and still had a gentle appearance.

It was Jiang Motong's unspoken personality that made Shen Hao more alert.

Prince's mansion, Garden Yating.

Zhou Yan, Xu Ying and Shen Lin sat on the stone bench in the garden, looking at the entrance of the Prince's Mansion, as if they were waiting for something.

At this time, Zhou Yan suddenly cursed: "You bastard, you dare to let me inherit the patriarch, and I will destroy your Guangling City first! How dare a Guangling prince treat me so unreasonably, dare to let the third young master of the Blackthorn Clan Waiting outside! It really pissed me off."

Xu Ying burst out laughing, gloating greatly, and said, "Master Zhou's status in the family doesn't seem to be very good? When will he succeed the Patriarch?"

Hearing this, Zhou Yan turned red rarely, and said in dissatisfaction: "I don't care about this position, I'm just talking out of anger! Besides, now that I have Master Shen, won't my status in the family flourish?"

Xu Ying was not good at words, she suddenly became hoarse, and had to turn her face away angrily.

Zhou Yan chuckled, and happened to see Shen Hao and Jiang Motong coming out of the Yating, and hurriedly got up and walked over.

Jiang Motong, who walked out of the Yating, stretched out his hand to block the glare of the sun, and said with a smile: "Brother Shen, I hope you can carefully consider Mo Tong's words, and I hope that Brother Shen will not betray Mo Tong's kindness."

Shen Hao nodded, and also smiled and said: "Thank you for the kindness of the third prince, but Shen Hao is a rigid person, and he will not give up on things he decides. Therefore, I will continue to investigate this case."

Jiang Motong sighed slightly: "Oh, I hope little brother can take care of himself."

After bidding farewell to Shen Hao, Jiang Motong walked towards the main hall.

Zhou Yan also came over at this time, and hurriedly asked: "Shen Dashi, what did this not-so-little prince say to you?"

Shen Hao looked at Jiang Motong's leaving back, and said with heavy eyes: "It's nothing, just let us get out of here as soon as possible, and don't want to get involved in fearless disputes."

Zhou Yan asked suspiciously, "What dispute?"

Shen Hao withdrew his gaze, and said solemnly: "It seems that things are not as simple as we thought. Guangling City, which seems to be calm and calm, has already killed [-] innocent women in just a few dozen days!"

"What?" The three exclaimed in unison.

Shen Hao had already expected their reaction, and was not too surprised. He continued, "There are more than 100 assistants who have been involved in this case who are dead! Among them, there are also two masters at the beginning of alchemy! What's even more strange is that their method of death is different from that of the previous women, they exploded to death!"

Shen Hao's words exploded in the minds of the three of them like a thunderclap.

You must know that alchemy masters, looking at the Crimson Continent, are not weak existences.As long as you reach the alchemy realm.Moreover, it is extremely difficult to kill an alchemy master!And in Guangling City, where there are few masters, there are only a handful of masters who can completely obliterate the first-level alchemy realm!

If the murderer is so tricky!Then this action is undoubtedly seeking death!
