Chapter 81, etc. (Happy New Year, I wish all my book friends all the best, may all their wishes come true, and may your family be happy!)
Wuhei walked cautiously along the path in the elm forest with several servants.
"Aconitum,"
After walking for some distance, an officer shouted, "Blood!"
Several officers and Wuhei ran over immediately, and when they saw the bloodstains on the leaves, their faces suddenly turned dark.
As a police officer, especially a police officer in the martial arts world, one often deals with the dead.
Whether it is human blood or animal blood, you can basically tell it at a glance.
"okay!"
Seeing his men trembling, Wu Hei pretended to be calm and said, "We are going to visit Taoist Changsheng!"
"What blood? Anyway, I didn't see it!"
"That's right, where did the blood come from!"
Several officers looked pale and slowly encouraged themselves.
Ordinary people in Jingzhou city might not know about the big commotion last night, but those in the government offices knew about it.
To be able to become a runner in the yamen, one must have some connections. Even if one's status is low, one is well-informed.
Hundreds of people from the martial arts world entered the charity cemetery and never came out again.
It goes without saying that those hundreds of wanderers would probably never come out again.
They went to gather information at this moment. If the owner of the charity cemetery was kind-hearted and didn't bother with them, it would be fine. But if he did, none of them would get out alive.
Right now, they had no choice but to go, so they could only pretend that they knew nothing in order to save their lives.
Ten miles or so may sound far to these yamen runners, but it is actually very close.
In the world of martial arts, if you were a yamen runner and didn't know any martial arts, you would have died on the streets long ago. Maybe you don't have strong strength, but you must be able to run very fast!
"Dang Dang Dang!"
Knocked on the door of the charity cemetery.
"Squeaky!"
The door opened and Lao Liu came out. "It's Captain Wu. Please come in!"
Although Lao Liu, Qingfeng Mingyue and others did not leave the house last night, they still heard the shouting and wailing in the courtyard.
Seeing Wuhei and a few officers coming towards him, he was not very scared. He often saw dead people, so why would he be afraid of a few officers?
Especially, hundreds of people died last night, and he was also collecting the bodies for a while!
Hundreds of people were killed at will, so Lao Liu naturally had the confidence to face these officers.
After bringing Captain Wu to the reception room, Lao Liu went to report to his master.
"It turned out to be Captain Wu!"
Zhang Chu hadn't arrived yet, but the man in black who heard the noise arrived first, "Why are you here at the charity cemetery so early in the morning?"
"Meet the Taoist Priest in Black!"
When Captain Wu saw that it was the Taoist priest in black, he immediately stood up and saluted respectfully.
The same thing happened to the servants he brought with him. They quickly stood up and saluted.
A top master in the world is worthy of their awe.
"I haven't come to see Taoist Changsheng for a long time, so I came here specially today to pay my respects to him!"
Wu Hei said with great respect, "Let's see if there is anything we can help with in the charity cemetery!"
"Uh-huh!"
The man in black nodded, "Everyone, take a seat. The Taoist master should be here soon!"
Wuhei sat down nervously.
In fact, he had been observing the surroundings since entering the charity cemetery.
With his eyesight, he could naturally see it clearly: there was definitely a fight in the charity cemetery last night, and the blood on the ground had not dried yet!
When I just came in, Lao Liu was covering the bloodstains with yellow soil!
"I have met Captain Wu,"
Not long after we sat down, Zhang Chu walked in. "I wonder what Captain Wu is here for?"
"Do you need my help?"
Looking at Zhang Chu, who was wearing a Taoist robe, had a head full of white hair and eyes like black holes, Wuhei shuddered unconsciously.
He was terrified! "Master, it's been a while since you last visited me!"
Wu Hei quickly stood up and said, "We are here to see if there is anything you can do for us, Taoist Priest!"
"Oh?"
Zhang Chu glanced at the uneasy Wu Hei and smiled, "Everything is fine in the charity cemetery, nothing has happened!"
"Then we will take our leave!"
After a few more pleasantries, Wuhei immediately stood up and prepared to return.
It has now been confirmed that there was fighting in the charity cemetery, and the room was filled with corpses.
From these two points, it can be confirmed that those hundreds of wanderers have all died in the charity cemetery.
I have already done what Lord Fuzun asked me to do. Why are you still staying here?
Looking for death?
Even though Wu Hei was used to seeing dead people, he didn't want to be in the same room with a cruel Taoist like Zhang Chu.
If one thing is wrong, someone will die!
"Then I won't send you off!"
When Zhang Chu heard that Wu Hei wanted to leave, he didn't care at all and had no intention of stopping him at all.
When Wu Hei heard what Zhang Chu said, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that his life was saved.
He immediately stood up and walked outside with his men.
Zhang Chu didn't go to see him off, but Lao Liu did.
Walking in the charity cemetery and looking at the bloodstains on the ground, Wu Hei and the others felt their hearts trembling and their bodies shaking.
"Aconitum,"
As he was walking, an officer came up to Wuhei and said, "Over there!"
Wu Hei was startled and turned his head carefully, then he saw a woman carrying tea entering a room.
When he saw the woman's appearance, Wu Hei almost screamed out.
He knew that woman, she was the daughter of the Fuzun family, Miss Ling Shuanghua.
However, he had no intention of saying anything, and followed Lao Liu out without looking back.
He just came here to gather information, and all he had to do was report everything he saw.
As for other matters, the Lord of the Palace will naturally take care of them.
"Captain Wu,"
When they reached the gate of the charity cemetery, Lao Liu stopped and said, "I'm sorry I can't see you off!"
"Mr. Liu, stop!"
Wuhei smiled and said, "We know how to go back now, how dare we trouble you to see us off?"
After saying that, he led his men and quickly walked towards Jingzhou City.
Only after I walked out of the elm grove did I finally feel relieved of my dark heart.
"Let's go back to the city!"
Not long after he walked, he saw the person Ling Tuisi had sent to pick him up. He immediately ran over and said, "I have something important to report to the Lord!"
After saying that, he jumped on his horse and galloped towards Jingzhou City.
As for the servants who followed him, they had no horses to ride and could only run to catch up.
After seeing Wuhei off, Zhang Chu also stood up and prepared to return to the quiet room to continue practicing.
"Master Dao,"
Hei Yi looked at Zhang Chu's figure and asked, "What should we do next?"
"Of course I waited, waiting for those short-lived ghosts to come to me on their own."
Zhang Chu stopped and looked towards the direction of Jingzhou City, and said meaningfully, "I hope Ling Tui Si won't disappoint me!"
