Chapter 748

Since it's dark investigation, Nalan night won't come aboveboard.

Using the secret channel of the dark night hall, he shortened the originally fastest ten day journey to six days, and had arrived at Lingxi, the main city of Beijun. There were not many people around. Except Yuan Xing and Xu Wei, there were only four soldiers.

It was already dark. Nalan was wearing black clothes and a black cloak, and rode slowly on the horse. But no one could recognize his identity. He wore a thin mask on his face, which covered his firm and handsome appearance and looked ordinary.

At his feet were flat and clean bluestone slabs, and there was no blood at all, which was very different from when he left a few months ago. Returning to Lingxi City, Nalan night looked around at random and felt a little.

This once the capital city of North Vietnam, Mingyang City, has now become the Lingxi city of Western Chu. However, in just a few months, things have changed greatly.

The leveled and open streets lead straight to the front. Even at night, there are rows of shops on both sides, highlighting the prosperity of the day. Some shops carry a lamp in front of them, which penetrates far in the dark, and the cloth cover floats back and forth in the wind, making a loud sound.

The horse's hooves are crisp and slow, walking without a foot. Nalan walks through Lingxi city at night and looks at it at will. Yuan Xing and Xu Wei followed him without speaking. They quietly looked around and were alert to all possible changes.

With a deep pupil, Nalan night stood at the corner of the street and looked at the tall building in the distance ahead - the city master's house.

This time I came to Lingxi in Beijun to find out what was involved between the sheriff Guan Hou and Nangong Waner, the third princess, and what was specifically planned. If it is a small mischief, even if he dies and loses some money, he will not interfere and has no interest in management. But if something serious is involved, he will have to intervene.

There is a kind of ominous premonition. The mountain rain is coming. Nalan night stands in the night and hasn't moved for a long time.

"Lord, do you want to go down and explore the city master's house at night?"

Seeing that he had been standing still, Yuan Xing thought Nalan night was hesitating. At that moment, he asked aloud, "we're here secretly. The governor will never find anything. Maybe we can find it at night..."

Before he finished speaking, a faint voice came from a distant place. When he listened carefully, someone shouted, "let's go - let's go - come on!"

For a moment, there was a fire in the dark sky, and it was bright around the seal. Xu Wei blurted out: "Lord, the fire is so fierce! I'm afraid something's wrong!"

When the corner of his lips was hooked, Nalan night waved his cloak and opened his thin lips: "go and have a look."

The horseshoe got it, but in a moment, the party had reached the street where the fire broke out.

Even though there are dozens of feet apart, there are already countless people around. It is obvious that they were awakened at night to put out the fire. The crowd is surrounded by three floors inside and outside. Some want to put out the fire but can't rush in, some cry, some talk, point to the burning house and shock their faces

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, don't block it, put out the fire, what are you doing?"

"My house... My goods... God, who killed thousands of knives set fire..."

"You see, the fire is burning so fast and so fierce. It has burned more than ten rooms at least. Do you smell it? There is a smell of fire oil... Someone must have set fire on purpose!"

"What nonsense? Don't you know how to put out the fire? You're in the way. Don't you see? How dare you pedal me?"

"Ah... God, why did you burn my house! I don't want to live..."

All kinds of messy voices mixed together, and I couldn't hear what was going on. You pushed me and squeezed me in the crowd, the crying of children, the curse of adults... In the chaos, there were even people fishing in troubled waters, taking the opportunity to steal money and shuttling around the crowd, and no one noticed at all.

Looking at the sky burning fire, Nalan night and his party did not approach, but looked at it from a distance. The smell in the air was so special that he would not miss it. The fire in front of him was deliberately caused by someone, but when he first arrived, he didn't know why these people wanted to make a fire.

"My Lord, this is a rich merchant's house. Because of the problems of northern Vietnam and Western Chu some time ago, the whole family didn't know where to escape, and the house has been empty. But recently it seems that..." Xu Wei quickly said what he heard, and whispered, "why don't you go down and check, just in case..."

"Not for the time being. Just look." Nalan said faintly at night.

As long as it is not proved that the matter has something to do with the purpose of his trip, he doesn't intend to do much. Whether it's gratitude or hatred, there are too many murders and arsons. He's not surprised. If he has to manage everything, he doesn't have so much time and energy.

Suddenly, a woman passed in front of him, and Nalan night's eyes moved.

This woman... Even emits a faint smell of kerosene. If he didn't have a good sense of smell, I'm afraid he would confuse this special taste with the burning smell in the air.

There was something flashed in his mind. Nalan looked at the woman at night and looked around at the burning buildings. His face was panic. He was almost the same as the ordinary people around him. There was no flaw at all.

But her eyes were not afraid, but had a complicated look.

The woman was naturally long Ning. Looking at the burning fire and the crowd fighting the fire in the street, she was crying, frightened and confused. She felt guilty and could not bear it. If she and her father hadn't set the fire and poured fire oil on purpose, how could it cause such a big panic?

Her eyes turned. Long Ning did this for the first time. Her inner burden and pressure were like a mountain. Even if she had been prepared, she couldn't help lifting her heart when she saw the crying women and children and the innocent people who were burned.

The more uncomfortable, LONGNING doesn't want to see it again.

Anyway, it's burned and can't start again. She kept telling herself that setting fire is to save more people. It's better than letting her and her father kill dozens of people in custody? Now many houses have been burned and many things have been destroyed, but it is much better than life.

Lowering his head, long Ning muttered to himself, trying to reduce his inner guilt. He didn't realize that someone had followed behind him.

"Stop!" Suddenly, a deep and mellow voice came from behind.

Long Ning was surprised and subconsciously turned back. He saw several men following her and had reached a secluded place.

The man in front is tall, and even if he doesn't do anything, it also brings strong pressure to her. He was followed by two people, one left and one right, like a guard. The four men also stared at her covetously, which immediately flustered her.

Without saying a word, long Ning turned and ran away.

She was like a bird. When she exercised her lightness skill, she disappeared in place in an instant.

Unexpectedly, when she ran a few feet away, she heard the strong sound of clothes behind her. Long Ning's heart jumped. She didn't have to look back to know that the other party was coming. Not only can she also master martial arts, but obviously her lightness skills are better than her. She caught up in the blink of an eye.

I didn't expect to be noticed when setting a fire. Long Ning had a ghost in his heart and didn't dare to explain. He was more and more lucky to raise the speed to the highest. The whole person flew like the wind and just wanted to escape quickly.

But there was constant movement behind him. The man not only followed closely and was not thrown away at all, but allowed her to escape. It seemed that he wanted her to lead the way and find more partners. Long Ning didn't dare to return to the city master's house. He was frightened and scared. He turned around and hit the other party hard.

"Who the hell are you..." Nalan was about to move away at night, but suddenly saw the face that suddenly turned back.

It's so familiar, as if she knew each other. This woman... Is like an acquaintance. Although she hasn't seen him for a long time, the memory in his brain suddenly surges up and remembers it a little.

But he was stunned. Seeing that the other party was numerous and powerful, long Ning was ruthless. He touched the dagger in his waist and stabbed the man.

Nalan's eyes brightened at night, and he recognized it!

"Go away!" Long ningjiao drank and started mercilessly.

The name had come to his mouth. Nalan night still didn't shout it after all. He was surprised and pleased with too many questions in his heart. He was just used to not revealing it all the year round, and he also wore a mask, which made him look expressionless, but his body shape slowed down.

When one move was hit, long Ning took advantage of the situation, and the whole person was like an arrow leaving the string. His speed doubled abruptly, and finally disappeared into the night.

Nalan night didn't catch up again and stood where he was, but Xu Wei and Yuan Xing caught up for a moment.

Seeing that people were missing, Yuan Xing was very strange that there were people his king could not catch up with? Who should be so divine that he has such a brilliant ability? He looked at Nalan night's face, stared thoughtfully at the front, and asked, "Lord, why did this woman run away? Didn't he want to catch it?"

"It doesn't matter. Just run." Nalan said faintly at night and turned back.

"Ah, Lord, it's strange. Aren't you going to chase this woman? Is she the arsonist, but why don't you chase her again?" Yuan Xing stood where he was, wondering what was going on.

Nalan night didn't answer, so he turned over and got on his horse: "let's go. Don't talk so much. Did the brother at the entrance inform you? Find a place to rest first. It's time to go to bed."

"But the Lord..."

Yuan Xing still needs to be asked. Xu Wei grabbed him and said, "don't you see if the Lord is tired and wants to rest? Ask again tomorrow."

The fire in the distance was still raging, dyed the night red, and the noise was constant. The party never saw it again. The sound of horses' hoofs was trampled lightly and gradually disappeared into the darkness

On the other side, he finally met with long Kai and carefully returned to LONGNING, who is good at living in the city master's house, but said what had just happened.

"Dad, it was really dangerous just now. I was almost caught by those people." Long Ning still has lingering palpitations and his face is still a little white. When she thought of the man who found something wrong with her, she had a deep fear.

"But since the opponent's martial arts are higher than you and there are a large number of people, why did he let you go at last?" Long Kai couldn't figure it out. His face was solemn and his eyebrows were frowned.

"Who knows, what if he only has good lightness skills but half martial arts?" Long Ning curled his lips to ease the pressure in his heart.

But anyway, since they were almost found, they should be more careful. Fortunately, the fire has been set off, and things have become big. They can't control how many people escaped from the house and burned to death.

Now, they just hope that the bigger the trouble, the better. It will lead to the investigation of the government. In this way, the sheriff will throw a mouse and dare not move without authorization.

Long Kai said in a deep voice, "write a letter right away and send it to your senior brother in the capital. Come on!"
