In Shangyuan City, the crowd was bustling and lively.
Although Lu Mingyue is a hero among women, she still has her girlish nature.
At this moment, she was holding a bunch of candied haws, eating them while answering Xu Zun's questions.
"All the sisters in Qinglan Academy, oh... all the fellow Taoists are my good sisters," Lu Mingyue said. "The one who gave you the blue book should be Lin Na. She is the daughter of Lin Yutang, the richest man in the city, and also
A chivalrous woman with a sense of justice!
"Oh... By the way, I haven't told you yet," Lu Mingyue added, "I wrote those lists in the blue book! I asked her to hand it over to the government office investigating the case at the right opportunity.
Tolerance.”
"Oh?" Xu Zun looked at Lu Mingyue and said with a smile, "So, you have already planned it, and the higher-ups will send someone to investigate your disappearance?"
"Of course," Lu Mingyue said with a pout, "our incompetent officials in Shangyuan City can do nothing except flatter their superiors and flatter my father.
"I have calculated that as soon as I disappear, the government will definitely send someone to investigate, and maybe the governor will also come to investigate the case in person!
"When the time comes, I will ask Lin Na to hand over the blue book, and I will ensure that the girl's missing case will attract their attention!"
"Oh...awesome, awesome..." Xu Zun gave a thumbs up.
He and Lu Mingyue were walking and chatting, and behind them were Wei Beihui and Huo Anu.
Wei Beihui never said a word. It could be seen from his depressed and helpless expression that he did not want to be Miss Lu Mingyue's bodyguard at all.
I just had no choice but to be appointed by the Marquis.
Huo Anu saw that Wei Beihui had high self-esteem, so she did not take the initiative to talk to him. She just kept vigilant around Xu Zun and did her job well.
"Then..." Xu Zun asked again, "How did you find out about the serial disappearance of girls in Shangyuan City?"
"This is more accidental," Lu Mingyue said, "I asked my friends to look for Lu Xiaofeng everywhere, and everyone found it while searching.
"So, we compiled the missing information, and then we discovered that so many girls were missing in Shangyuan City!"
"Your...friend?" Xu Zun asked.
"Yes, the sisters in Qinglan Temple are all my friends," Lu Mingyue said. "Everyone is worried about Xiaofeng's disappearance and is working very hard to find her."
"Tsk tsk..." Xu Zun suddenly frowned, "This Lu Xiaofeng... Isn't she very talented? When I dream of returning to the general camp, I wish I could kill anyone?"
"Oh... I know you have been to my boudoir and you must have seen this poem!" Lu Mingyue blinked her big bright eyes and said, "To tell you the truth, even though Lu Xiaofeng is two years younger than me, she
But she is a very perfect girl, even I envy her!"
"Oh?" Xu Zun asked hurriedly, "How can you see it?"
"She is beautiful," Lu Mingyue shook the candied haws in her hand, "She is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. She is courageous and talented in literature. The most amazing thing is that she has also learned superb swordsmanship. She is simply an all-rounder among geniuses!
"
"Really? Pretty?" Xu Zun looked at Miss Lu and asked, "More beautiful than you?"
"Just kidding," Lu Mingyue said to the point, "Go to Qinglan Academy and ask around. If Lu Xiaofeng is the second most beautiful woman in the city, then no one will dare to be the first! I can't compare..."
"Wow!" Xu Zun admired sincerely, "How beautiful is that?"
"You... um..." Lu Mingyue pouted her cute little mouth again, "Are you praising me for my good looks in disguise?"
"Of course!" Xu Zun teased, "I really can't think of what a person who is more beautiful than you would look like?"
"Wow, Brother Xu, you are really good at complimenting people. Come on..." As she said that, she handed the candied haws in her hand to Xu Zun's mouth, "Come on, little sister, thank you. Come on, have one. It's so sweet!"
"
this……
Xu Zun didn't expect that Miss Lu would be so invisible.
Cough cough...cough cough...
Behind him, Wei Beihui's fake cough came, which meant to remind Xu Zun to pay attention to his identity.
However, Xu Zun didn't accept this trick. He immediately opened his big mouth and bit down two candied haws at once!
"Hahaha..." Lu Mingyue laughed loudly, "Looking at your greedy look, it's so ridiculous!"
He said it was ridiculous, but Lu Mingyue imitated Xu Zun and bit into two pieces at once, swallowing them in his mouth and chewing them hard...
Crunch, crunch...
Xu Zun and Lu Mingyue looked at each other and chewed candied haws, and they were extremely happy with it. After swallowing, they laughed heartily!
Hahaha……
Hahaha……
This little girl is so unrestrained and patient...
Something strange arose in Xu Zun's heart, and he felt that he had an innate sense of intimacy with this daughter of the Marquis...
"Hmm...Brother Xu," Lu Mingyue asked Xu Zun after finishing chewing, "where are we going? The county government is in front of us! Don't we have to go to the county government?"
"That's right," Xu Zun said with a smile, "I haven't officially received the order yet. I need to apply to the governor to get the authority to investigate this case."
"Oh..." Lu Mingyue was worried, "Will the governor agree? I always feel that their officials protect each other, is he just like the officials in Yuan County?"
"Don't worry, haha," Xu Zun took the opportunity to say, "Since you have recognized me as your brother, I have to make him agree no matter what!"
"Hey, this looks like a good big brother to me," Lu Mingyue stretched out the candied haws of apples again, but found that there was only one bamboo stick left, and the two of them had already eaten the candied haws of apples.
As a result, the two of them laughed heartily again, causing Wei Beihui to frown again and again, and Huo Anu to have a playful expression on his face.
Next, Lu Mingyue told Xu Zun some details about Lu Xiaofeng. After that, he was about to continue talking about the disappearance of other girls, but the two of them had already arrived at the gate of the county government office.
Xu Zungang was about to lead Lu Mingyue in to see the governor Li Yan, but he happened to bump into an acquaintance.
Unexpectedly, Shen Xinglian, the deputy captain of the Shangyuan garrison, suddenly appeared at the gate of the county government office.
But when he saw Shen Xinglian riding a tall horse, he jumped down from the gate of the county government office and stumbled towards the county government office. He looked very panicked.
As soon as he rushed to the gate of the county government office, he happened to meet Xu Zun head-on.
Originally, the meeting between the two was somewhat awkward due to their previous estrangement.
Unexpectedly, after seeing Xu Zun, Shen Xinglian pounced directly on him!
"Xu...Xu Zun..."
He grabbed Xu Zun's arm, his center of gravity was unsteady, and Xu Zun almost fell to one knee.
"Hey?" Xu Zun was surprised. Then he realized that Shen Xinglian's face was pale and his condition was different, so he hurriedly helped him.
"Xu Zun, it's not good!" Shen Xinglian said breathlessly, "Luo...another female body in monk clothes appeared in the Arhat Temple!"
ah!!?
Hearing this, Xu Zun, Lu Mingyue and Wei Beihui and Huo Anu who were behind were all shocked.
"You..." Shen Xinglian swallowed hard and said to Xu Zun, "Go and have a look quickly! The person was still warm when he was found, as if he had just died..."
