Chapter 241：

After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, a group of people walked out of the city lord's mansion.

The headed man is about fifty years old, of medium height and wearing a purple brocade suit. His figure is fatter, with a smile on his face, it looks a bit like a Buddha statue enshrined in a temple, of course, if you don’t look at his eyebrows If so, his eyebrows are the same as those of the guards before, and there is also a black vertical line, even his face is a little black.

The guard who had entered before followed him, and when he saw Yue Zhao and the others, they pointed to the man.

The guard at the door straightened up immediately after seeing the man, and after the man walked over, he respectfully saluted the man.

"This is the Lord Qian of Canghui City," the former guard introduced Yue Zhao and the others about the identity of the man. "The Lord, these are disciples from the White Tiger Holy Land."

"I have seen City Lord Qian, and I will wait for my teacher's order to solve the things in Canghui City." Yue Zhao looked like a gentleman, and said with a smile.

"The three princes are polite, and I have finally waited for you." City Lord Qian looked at Yue Zhao and their expressions with excitement, and even felt tears in his eyes, as if someone who had been walking in the desert for a long time saw an oasis. "A few of you, please."

Yue Zhao and the others followed behind City Lord Qian and walked into the City Lord's Mansion.

Yesterday, when exploring the City Lord's Mansion, Yue Zhao had actually gotten some sense of the situation in the City Lord's Mansion, but at that time it was full of formations, and he needed to concentrate on passing through the formations, and did not pay much attention to the surroundings.

At this time, following City Lord Qian, looking at the situation in the City Lord's Mansion.

In the city lord’s mansion during the day, those formations were not opened. Although the layout of the city lord’s mansion is not particularly luxurious, it is also very grand. It can be seen that the city lord is a more particular person, and the aesthetics is good. You can see that he is right in the details. The meticulousness of the City Lord's Mansion.

Different from the depression outside, the atmosphere in the City Lord's Mansion is not bad. The subordinates perform their duties, and they don't have the feeling of cowering. Yue Zhao and the others looked at each other and continued to follow the City Lord.

The city lord took them to the main hall, greeted them enthusiastically to sit down, and asked the servants to prepare spiritual tea for them.

"The three of us only arrived in Canghui City today. I don’t know the situation in Canghui City. I don’t know if you can tell us about it.” Yue Zhao’s smile is perfect and his attitude is polite, which is easy to get good impressions. That kind of look.

The smile on City Lord Qian’s face disappeared instantly, and it was replaced by an irresistible sorrow, “I’m not going to hide it from you, I have to ask Baihu Holy Land for help. The situation in the city is actually not very good. Recently, several people have died, everyone. The same internal organs were taken away, but there were no other wounds on the body, and there was no sign of poisoning. I really can’t find out who killed them. Recently, people in the city have been panicked because of this incident, even me. , Also very scared."

"Are there any characteristics for a murderer to kill? For example, the time of the murder, the birthdates of the people who were killed, etc.?" Nan Hua shook his fan and asked curiously.

City Lord Qian shook his head bitterly, "No, except that every victim will get an internal organ removed, there is absolutely no pattern for murderers to kill."

Hearing this, the faces of Yue Zhao's trio also showed a distressed look.

"City Lord Qian, the murderer usually kills during the day or at night. Is there anything wrong in the city recently?" Yue Zhao put down the tea cup in his hand, and saw City Lord Qian's face twitching, he asked with a smile as if he hadn't seen it. road.

"These people were basically at night when they were killed. As for the city, everyone was afraid to go out recently because of this incident. There is nothing wrong with it." City Lord Qian's eyes fell on the tea cup on the table next to Yue Zhao , Suddenly said, "This son, is the tea not good? If it is not good, I will ask the servants to give you another cup."

The gazes of the three Yue Zhao followed the gaze of the city lord and fell onto the cup.

Yue Zhao's eyes flashed, "No, it's just that I'm not too thirsty now."

City Lord Qian smiled at Yue Zhao and said nothing.

"City Lord Qian, I am more curious about the scenery of the City Lord's Mansion. I don't know if I can stroll around in the City Lord's Mansion." Mu Chen said to City Lord Qian suddenly.

City Master Qian obviously didn't expect Mu Chen to make such a request. He was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and nodded, "Of course." He beckoned at the door, and the maid guarding the door ran in immediately, "Bring this. The prince was strolling around the house."

The maid took the order and left with Mu Chen.

Yuezhao and Nanhua continued to talk about the murderer with Qian Chengzhu. They used various aspects of Qian Chengzhu’s words. Unfortunately, Qian Chengzhu looked like he didn’t know each other, or else he looked sad. I hope Yuezhao and the others can help them quickly. They find the murderer.

Mu Chen went out for more than half an hour before returning to the main hall. Yue Zhao and the Lord Qian were drinking tea. After Mu Chen came back, Yue Zhao and the others said goodbye.

"Don't the three sons live in the City Lord's Mansion?" City Lord Qian seemed surprised that the three of them were about to leave, asking with a look of sorrow.

"No, City Lord Qian, we found a place to live outside, so we don't need to disturb City Lord Qian." Yue Zhao refused very politely. Of course, at his level, even if he refuses people, it won't make people feel like it. uncomfortable.

City Lord Qian's face twitched, he could only smile and nod, and didn't keep the three of them.

He sent the three of them out of the City Lord's Mansion, and after watching them leave, he returned to the City Lord's Mansion with a stiff face.

The three of Yue Zhao did not go back to the inn where they were staying. Instead, they walked along the main street, looking like they were looking for clues. After they left the city lord’s mansion for a while, they felt a malicious prying, and the three of them remained silent. , Walked directly towards Dongcheng District, the line of sight followed them all the time.

Nan Hua took out a small mirror from the Qiankun Ring and held it in his hand, pretending to be tidying his hair. In fact, he was looking for something to track them by adjusting the angle. After he changed four or five angles, there was a small mirror not far behind them. On the eaves of the house, I saw a black feather crow.

After fiddled with his hair twice, he retracted the mirror. After Yue Zhao and Mu Chen looked over, they nodded imperceptibly, Yue Zhao's eyes flashed, and Mu Chen evoked a shallow smile.

"Second brother, do you want to solve the black feather crow?" Nanhua Transmitted to ask Yue Zhao. Hei feather crow's sight is really uncomfortable, and he doesn't want to be stared at by it at all.

Yue Zhao thought for a while and nodded.

Nanhua got Yue Zhao's permission and immediately turned around, and the glazed frost flower fan in his hand flew out directly. Under his control, he came to the black feather crow with lightning speed. Before the black feather crow could react, He chopped off its head, and its remaining body fell directly to the ground.

As soon as the black feather crow died, the malicious peeping that followed him immediately disappeared, and Yue Zhao and the others felt a little more relaxed.

"Second brother, this black feather crow was obviously sent by the other party to monitor us. If you kill it, doesn't the other party know that we have found something wrong?" Mu Chen turned his head and asked Yue Zhao.

"Our purpose today is to let the other party know that we already know some things, so that the other party will definitely find a way to get rid of us, so that we can find the other party, otherwise we don't know when we are going to stay." Yue Zhao said With a smile, he said slowly.

Suddenly, Mu Chen immediately understood Yue Zhao's intention.

"Did you just find something in the City Lord's Mansion?" Yue Zhao turned around and asked Mu Chen. Mu Chen wanted to visit the City Lord's Mansion because they had discussed it before they went in, so that they could be honest and familiar with the topography of the City Lord's Mansion. By the way, see if you can find anything.

"The maid took me around the garden of the city lord’s mansion. I deliberately led her to the city lord’s study, and was stopped when she was near the study. However, I also smelled a faint smell of blood near the study, and I found the whole The people in the City Lord's Mansion have a black vertical line on their eyebrows, and their faces are faintly dark. It is obvious that they have been controlled by someone." Mu Chen slowly said his findings.

"If you use poison, can you control so many people? And the actions of these people look like they haven't been controlled?" Yue Zhao thought for a while and asked Mu Chen.

Mu Chen is an absolute expert in drug treatment, and he still believes in Mu Chen's judgment.

Mu Chen thought for a while, shook his head, "If you just use poison, you may be able to control so many people, but they won't be like those in the City Lord's Mansion. Those people don't seem to understand that they are being controlled. It’s strange to think about things in human thinking. Only the city lord is a stranger. You can't do this with poison."

"If it is a puppet technique, these people's reactions should be relatively rigid, and their actions will be more rigid. They basically have no ideas of their own, and it is not a puppet technique," Yue Zhao frowned, somewhat distressed, "what should it be?"

"Use Gu!" Mu Chen said affirmatively, "Gu poison belongs to a relatively common existence near the Dark Swamp. People there are better at raising Gu, making Gu, and using Gu to control people. Black Feather Crow is the one in Dark Swamp. Product, I suspect that the people behind the scenes should be related to the tribe or stockade on the dark swamp."

For this kind of thing, Mu Chen really knows better than the average person. Because of the geographical location and the environment, the dark swamp is generally more confined and less in contact with outsiders. This also causes many people to be ignorant of the situation there. Naturally I haven't seen Gu Poison, but Mu Chen has heard of it.

"The distance between Dark Swamp and Canghui City should be quite far, right? This guy came all the way to do these things, knowing what it was for, why didn't he harm the city near Dark Swamp nearby?" Nan Hua fanned, some Tucao depressed.
