Chapter 113 Life hangs by a thread
"So, what is the name of your talisman maker?"
In the torture room of Tianyuan Hall, the old man in white robes stared straight at the female stall owner opposite the wooden table with eyes like daggers.
The female stall owner has not yet recovered from this sudden setback, but just shook her head dully. She set up a stall at the city gate as usual today, and her business was as prosperous as before, due to the benefits brought by the Fire Chong Talisman.
Let her have no worries about food and clothing. However, this wonderful life did not last long. Today, wanted fireworks bloomed in the sky above Tianyuan City, and then she was captured by the Rogue Cultivators in Tianyuan Palace.
"If you don't tell us, we won't be able to catch the murderer, and we won't be able to get an explanation for the deaths of our Rogue Cultivators. Likewise, you can't even think about getting out." The old man in white robe is a Dzogchen practitioner in the Qi Refining Period, but at this moment
Facing the female stall owner who was only at the fourth level of Qi Refining, he showed no pretense and kept talking as if he was enlightening her.
"Two Fire Rush Talisman traces were found at the scene of the incident today. According to our investigation, of the ten Fire Rush Talismans you sell every morning, no one has been able to buy two in the past month." The old man's eyes became sharper.
, "So, the murderer can only be two people. Am I wrong in what I said?"
The female stall owner shook her head numbly.
"Then if you don't tell the person who made the talisman, I can't let you go, and the murderer can only use you to give an explanation to everyone. Do you understand what I mean?" The old man in white robe stood.
Get up and walk towards the iron gate.
"Our Tianyuan City is built for casual cultivators, and the Rogue Cultivators Alliance is for serving casual cultivators! If we can't even guarantee good public security in Tianyuan City, then how can we talk about serving people and creating a stable society?"
Cultivation environment?! If you are enlightened, think of the way quickly!"
Snap!
The door of the torture room was slammed shut, leaving only the figure of the female stall owner sitting numbly and slumped.
...
An hour after the incident, Lu Yu appeared in the woodland on the western outskirts of Tianyuan City. This sudden incident caught him off guard. He had been mentally prepared for being robbed. The first thing he saw was the pudgy old man's face.
At that time, I felt that this smiling old guy was not a good person, but I never expected that this person was so proficient in investigating information and actually found out his origins.
If he can find out that he killed the monks from the Loose Cultivator Alliance in the Royal Tomb of Hengjiang, it can only mean that he has had contact with that sloppy old man. In other words, that sloppy old man is also in Tianyuan City and is very likely to know about it.
own existence!
The more Lu Yu thought about it, the more he realized that the crisis was extremely serious. Xiao Wu was still in the city. If those guys really found out where he lived at this time and went directly to catch Xiao Wu... He simply couldn't imagine it.
It was too late. After confirming that there were no pursuers behind him, Lu Yu circled from the outside of the west city to the north gate of the city and ran frantically to the north three and east two.
"Ouch..." Xiao Cang got into Lu Yu's sleeve and clung to him tightly.
Time seems to suddenly slow down.
...
"Elder! That woman did it! She really doesn't know the murderer's name, but she used memory skills to describe his appearance. Take a look." In the Tianyuan Hall, a group of cultivators gathered together to take a picture of Lu Yu, the elder's portrait.
The group's conference table immediately aroused a discussion among several old men around them.
"Isn't this Lu Yu! Lu Yu from the Hehuan Sect!" Among the elders, a slovenly old man with an unattractive appearance shouted tremblingly: "He is indeed still alive! I wonder why Fatty Hu suddenly asked about him! I didn't expect that.
..."
His words immediately attracted the attention of the old man in white robes in the center. They belong to the Law Enforcement Elders of the Tianyuan City Loose Cultivator Alliance and are responsible for the security and arrests in the city. Their cultivation levels are generally at the ninth level of Qi Refining and the Dzogchen realm. There are six in total.
People, headed by the old man in white robe.
As expected, the old man in white robe immediately asked: "Do you know the details?"
"Yes, Great Elder. This person is the follower of the Hehuan Sect witch wanted on the notice board. He appeared in the Hengjiang Prince's Tomb and killed two members of our alliance a few years ago. If I hadn't run fast, I might have been dead.
Death is gone." When the old man thought of Qin Xuan, he couldn't help but feel scared.
He could clearly see the scene of the two gorgeous firebirds incinerating the two Qi Refining monks like meteors from a distance. The fire was like meteors and as fast as lightning. The beautiful face of the witch was full of cold murderous intent, which penetrated to the bones.
"Come here!" The voice of the old man in white robes brought Gao Shidi back to reality. Several members of the casual cultivators heard the order and walked into the elder's room.
"Go and search all the inns and accommodation areas in the city. Be sure to thoroughly investigate this person's recent movements and report to me as soon as possible. Go quickly!"
With the order from the old man in white robe, the Sanxiu Alliance immediately started moving.
"Elder Gao, please tell me in detail what you saw that day." He turned his gaze to Gao Shidi and asked in a deep voice.
"That's it..."
...
"Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu..."
The sky was already dark, Lu Yu rushed into North Three and East Two, and his consciousness swept over Hua Wu who was sitting upright on the bed practicing, feeling extremely safe.
"Huh -" Lu Yu breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly ran upstairs.
"Brother Yu, what happened?" Hua Wu couldn't help but hurriedly got out of bed when she saw him looking like this, disheveled and seemingly running violently.
"Quickly, pack your things and let's go." Lu Yu gasped and said quickly.
"Ah? Okay..." Xiao Wu was particularly satisfied with Lu Yu. No matter what he said, she would believe it and do it without hesitation, no matter the reason.
It only took the two of them a quarter of an hour to pack everything up, but it was still too late.
Several lines of clearly visible spiritual pressure rushed towards here from a distance. Lu Yu frowned and put an earthy yellow talisman into Hua Wu's hand.
"Xiao Wu, if you can't run away in a while, you can use it to go first and wait for me in Tinglan Village. I'll be fine." Lu Yu's urgent voice made her heart tremble. She knew that she had been afraid.
The separation may really have come.
"Let's go!" He pulled her, jumped off the attic window sill, and headed straight for the north gate of the city.
The two's light body technique has reached its peak, but the difference in cultivation level directly affects the speed. Behind them, an old man at the ninth level of Qi refining stage has led several monks to chase them closer and closer.
As long as he reaches the outskirts of the city, as long as he leaves the city fifty feet, Xiao Wu will be safe. But...
The city gate was right in front of him. Lu Yu suddenly stopped, threw Xiao Cang to Hua Wu, pushed her out of the door, and blocked the door himself.
"Brother Yu!" "Ouch!"
"Leave me alone, Xiao Wu, do as I say!! Otherwise, I will never look for you again!!!"
This sentence was indeed useful. Two crystal tears fell down Hua Wu's eyes. She turned around and took one last look at Lu Yu, engraving his back in the deepest part of her heart.
"Broken Path·Earth Binding Prison!" "Broken Path·Roots!" "Broken Path·Blue Water Prison!" "Broken Path·Fire Circle!"
boom--!!!
