One of them was silent, the other groaned, neither of them wanted to say anything.
Jiao Yu sniffed it, walked to the guard with a dislocated shoulder and said, "Here, you peed your pants."
All the soldiers laughed. This man's face was white and green, he was embarrassed and scared.
This was probably the lowest point in his life.
He Lingchuan also walked up to the prisoner with a dislocated shoulder and patted him on the shoulder————
The man let out an "ouch" in pain, raised his eyes, and happened to face the mirror that He Lingchuan held out.
"look!"
The man wanted to look away, but it was too late. His eyes subconsciously fell on the mirror, and he didn't feel anything unusual.
Until the reflection in the mirror smiled at myself...
The sorghum pole blocked the slanting sunlight, and everyone stood in the shadow. They saw a wisp of white smoke being pulled out of the prisoner's mouth and instantly thrown into the mirror.
The prisoner's eyes suddenly became dull.
This person is injured and has a weak will, so he is more likely to be taken advantage of by external evil than his companions.
He Lingchuan repeated the question: "Who are you going after?"
The prisoner replied blankly: "That's the man wanted in the city right now. His surname is Mai."
After losing his soul, he even lost his vigilance.
"Have you ever dealt with him?"
The man shook his head. They were just following orders.
"What are the orders you received?"
"Take him back. If you can't bring him back, kill him on the spot."
It was exactly what he expected: "Who sent you here?"
"Uncle Wu."
Finally there is a new name to trace: "Who is Uncle Wu?"
"Uncle Wu is an old man in the Cen family. He has been with Master Cen for more than ten years and has taken care of many things."
"Master Chen? Master Cen?" He Lingchuan asked him, "Where's your full name?"
"Cen..." There was a look of struggle in this man's eyes again.
Even if you lost your soul, why would you instinctively not want to say it? He Lingchuan said: "Don't worry, I guarantee you'll be fine."
This man shook his head repeatedly.
He Lingchuan had to ask another question: "Do you live in the northwest corner of Baisha?"
"yes."
"Do you live east of Blue Lake?"
"yes."
"Are there any identifying marks?"
"At the gate of the main gate, there are a pair of white jade unicorns that are more than ten feet tall, and there is also a 300-year-old sycamore tree."
He Lingchuan thought for a while: "What does Uncle Wu look like?"
"In his fifties, he has a square face, a little fat, not tall, and his eyes squint when he smiles."
These features look familiar. "Is he wearing maroon silk, a black gold-plated belt, and a black hat today?"
This person also recalled: "Yes."
He Lingchuan sighed slightly.
Uncle Wu was also on the tower just now!
He was the elderly wealthy businessman who was haggling with people in the Chaohu teahouse.
I don’t know whether it was because he was a bold artist or because he was confident that he would not cheat, but Uncle Wu went there in person.
Fortunately, He Lingchuan also did enough scenes on the tower so that no one could see through it at a glance.
"Is Uncle Wu the steward of the Cen Mansion? What kind of things does he do?"
"No, there is someone else who is the steward of the Cen Mansion." The man shook his head, "Uncle Wu is only following Master Cen. We don't know what he does."
"Uncle Wu is Lord Cen's confidant?"
"Yes."
"Okay, take him down." He Lingchuan felt relieved and said to the leader of the soldiers, "I tell you, the commander-in-chief, to immediately escort the prisoner with a dislocated shoulder to the capital and report it to the prince as an important witness; the other one is imprisoned and be careful not to be silenced."
The soldiers took the order and left.
He Lingchuan stood up, stretched and whistled again.
The goshawk flew over from nowhere, with a few magpie feathers stuck to the corners of its mouth.
"Why did you eat it?" He Lingchuan couldn't laugh or cry, "Turn back
The person who went to report the matter also needs to be followed."
The goshawk stood on the horse and flapped its wings: "The agents have been sent out."
Time was running out, so everyone packed up and rushed back.
It wasn't until Chaohu Tower came into view again that two blue magpies flew from the front, landed in front of the goshawk, and chirped a few times.
The goshawk raised its wings to show off, and the two bird monsters were so frightened that they flew up.
"What's wrong?"
"They lost track of them." Goshawk was displeased. "They said that the third person who returned entered a low room opposite the Chaohu Tower and then did not come out again. They waited for a while and felt something was wrong, so they went in through the window to take a look.
, and found that there was no one inside."
"Well, it has already slipped away, either through a secret passage or a formation." He Lingchuan called out, knowing that he would not be able to reach his opponent's lair so smoothly, "Take me over and have a look."
Two blue magpies lead the way.
They were temporarily recruited by Goshawk, who was the Red Yan demon official and had the right to temporarily recruit these demon birds to do work for him.
He Lingchuan followed them to a bungalow, just opposite Chaohu Tower.
It's not the first row facing the street, but the attic at the back. This is equivalent to the second and a half floors. He Lingchuan went up and took a look, and sure enough, he could monitor the gate of Chaohu Tower through the window.
Houses like this are lined up around the Chaohu Tower, and they are very inconspicuous. There is also a mixed crowd of people coming in and out, and many foreigners are looking for cheap and rent a house here.
After all, it is around a scenic area and is not as closed as an ordinary residential area, so new faces will be recognized immediately.
He Yuanchuan and Jiao Yu searched around the room several times, moved the low table away, and found that there was a prepared formation hidden underneath.
Jiao Yu took one look and said: "This is a small mountain moving formation. We can only move people two feet away."
Of course the cost is small.
No need to look, the other end of the circle must be in the house next door, and the third target has already slipped away.
Lan Que's tracking failed completely this time.
"Keep the current prisoners safe, they are important witnesses." He Lingchuan straightened up, "Fortunately, we have found new clues."
The Blue Lake East mansion has a white jade unicorn at the door and a three-hundred-year-old sycamore tree.
This is simply naming names.
In fact, He Lingchuan was already at ease when the three men chased them out.
This time the goal of setting up the next set has been achieved:
First, he must find out whether Mr. Mai has contacted the real culprit behind the scenes.
This is relevant to the entire case.
The answer is now clear;
No.
To be continued...
