Chapter 73: Yangcheng Demon Fox Case IV
Chapter 73 Yang City Demon Fox Case (4)
Yang City is actually not far from the capital city, but it’s hot summer and the sun is burning like fire, and people like Pei Rongbai can only drive more in the morning and evening, but Pei Rongbai and Qiao Zeyu feel sorry for Qiao Songyu, felt that it was not good to wake him up early in the morning, so had to stop and go.
During the day, around noon, the group had already reached the foot of a mountain. Because of the hot weather, they had to hide in the woods to rest.
Qiao Songyu was extremely hot, Pei Rongbai didn't allow him to wear that kind of cool and thin silk shirt, so it became even hotter, even if Pei Rongbai kept fanning him, it didn't help.He fanned himself with one hand, while looking at Ming Kong, who was dressed in a gray-blue monk's robe, he was sitting on a futon, with his eyes closed, and he was flicking the beads with one hand, with a peaceful and serene expression on his face.It doesn't seem to be hot at all.She walked over curiously, squatted down in front of Mingkong, and looked at this outstanding mage.
Qiao Zeyu was drinking water, seeing this scene, couldn't help laughing and said, "Song'er, what are you doing looking at the mage like that?"
Qiao Songyu waved at him, and said blankly: "I don't think he looks hot at all, so take a closer look to see if there is any sweat on his face."
"Then did you sweat?" Qiao Zeyu asked with a smile, and exchanged glances with Pei Rongbai who was beside him, Pei Rongbai smiled fondly and shook his head.
"I'm really not sweating!" Qiao Songyu exclaimed in surprise, as if she had discovered something strange.Then he asked Ming Kong, "Master, why aren't you hot?"
Does this mage Ming Kong really have spells?
Ming Kong slowly opened his eyes, looked at the beautiful and curious little face in front of him, and said with a smile: "The poor monk has a calm mind, and if the mind is calm, the body will not be dry, the body will not be irritable, and the body will not be hot."
Pei Rongbai pulled his little wife back, and said dotingly: "He is a monk, no matter how hot the weather is, he can meditate and practice Zen. Do you think he really has magical powers? He just has good concentration!"
"That's it." Qiao Songyu suddenly realized, took another sip of the water that Pei Rongbai handed over, and said, "Then I should calm down a bit, so it won't be so hot."
Just as Pei Rongbai was about to say something, he heard a murderous sentence from Jiang Shang standing beside him:
"Murderous!"
After finishing speaking, there was the sound of weapons being unsheathed one after another.
Pei Rongbai pulled Qiao Songyu over, hugged him into his arms, and then looked around vigilantly—as expected, he saw seven or eight men in black rushing out from all directions, and as soon as they appeared, they fought with their guards.
Although Qiao Songyu was used to being assassinated, she was still taken aback. Looking at the appearance of these people, it was obvious that they were targeting herself and Pei Rongbai, and their martial arts should be much higher than those sent by Princess Lu Yang before, becauseEven Pei Rongbai's guards had entangled with them for several rounds, it seemed that they couldn't take advantage of it.
"Song Er, don't be afraid, we have a lot of people, we can deal with it." Naturally, Pei Rongbai is not afraid, let alone that they have a lot of people, even if there are only him and Qiao Songyu at the moment, these assassins may not be able to hurt them.
"En." Qiao Songyu was actually not afraid, because the guards led the assassins far outside, far away from them, and they were watching the battle like watching a theater.
One of the men in black was desperately trying to get close to them, but Pei Rongbai's guards didn't give him a chance to get close at all. The two of them fought hand-to-hand in the air, and within a few moments, they had gone through several tricks.Everyone was attracted by these wonderful and thrilling fights, watching intently, completely unaware that a man in black flew out from the other side like a swallow in the wind, and the target was sitting beside him with his back to him.Looking at him, the unaware Qiao Zeyu!
"Second brother!"
Qiao Songyu cried out in shock, but before he could finish speaking, Ming Kong, who was sitting with his back turned to him, made a sudden move, and with a light wave, the assassin's sword was limply tilted to one side like a piece of cloth, and then he sawHe pressed back with his right hand wrapped around the Buddhist beads, and the killer was pressed to an unknown acupuncture point on his neck. He screamed in pain, and fell to the ground with a "bang", and the guards on the side immediately rushed up and grabbed him.uniform.
Qiao Songyu was dumbfounded watching his movements like flowing clouds and flowing water, and Qiao Zeyu on the side looked at him in a daze, as if he had been belatedly aware.
Ming Kong turned around and glanced at the killer, seeing that the killer was bleeding to death, he bowed with one hand and repented: "Amitabha, I will not kill Boren, Boren died because of me..."
Qiao Zeyu on the side looked at him, his gaze gradually deepened.
After this incident, everyone went to look at the other guards, and saw that the other guards were all dead, not a single one was left alive, probably because they were originally dead soldiers who committed suicide by taking poison if they failed to assassinate, and they would never be caughtTo live.
Pei Rongxuan stepped on one of the corpses, feeling quite regretful: "Tsk tsk, it's dead, I thought I could catch someone alive for interrogation!"
Pei Rongbai squinted at him, and then said to Jiang Shang: "Dispose of the corpse, and strengthen vigilance along the way!"
"yes!"
"Brother, why don't you find out whose subordinate it is?" Pei Rongxuan raised his eyebrows and asked.
"How to check?" Pei Rongbai raised his eyebrows, "Take off your clothes and see?"
Pei Rongxuan: ...
"If you think about it, you will know who it is." Pei Rongbai said calmly, then turned to Qiao Zeyu and said, "Zeyu, hurry up, this kind of place is not suitable to stay for a long time."
"En." Qiao Zeyu nodded, and when it was over, he subconsciously looked at Ming Kong beside him, seeing him quietly moving the Buddhist beads and reciting sutras, then turned his gaze away.
Everyone went on the road again, but the road was safe and sound, and they arrived at Yang City smoothly.
Those who came to welcome everyone were the governor of Yang City and his officials, as well as the governors and magistrates of the prefectures and counties near Yang City. After all, Pei Rongbai is a prime minister with power over the government and the people, and Qiao Zeyu has a lot of power.Everyone wanted to curry favor with the supervisory censor, and they all wanted to gain a good impression.
This Yangcheng City Yin's surname is Fu, and his first name is Fu Sheng. He is still very young. It is said that he was a Jinshi at the same age as Wen Youqing.Shrewd, a pair of slender eyes looked quite cunning.
"Your Majesty, all the officials of Yangcheng City, see Lord Prime Minister, see Qiao Yushi." Fu Sheng smiled and led all the officials to salute Pei Rongbai and Qiao Zeyu respectfully.
"Exemption." Pei Rongbai saw this Fu Sheng for the first time, but it wasn't the first time he heard about it. He had heard about it when Wen Youqing took the imperial examination with him. This Fu Sheng was no less talented than Wen Youqing.Youqing was originally sent to the Hanlin Academy to be edited, but he asked to be released outside, wanting to be a magistrate, and then he was sent to a county under Yang City as a county magistrate. Later, the governor of Yang City retired and returned to his hometown.He filled the vacancy because of his excellent political performance, and he has been the governor of Yang City for three years now.
