Chapter 331 The world is a huge lie
As the night grew darker, the clouds over the capital city were blown faster by the wind. The strands of clouds were like rags, wiping over and over the clear and new moon that reflected the cold light.
Surrounding the Kong family's mansion, there are people wearing night clothes hidden in the darkness, ensuring that any mosquito flying in will be noticed.
"Breathe...breathe..." Diagonally across from the house, there is a narrow alley.
Zhang Han's body was upright, leaning against the cold gray wall, his chest rising and falling due to breathing.
The No. 1 King of the Nine Halls will lead a team tonight to guard outside Kong Hanlin's home, ambush and track the demon.
Not long ago, he witnessed a woman walking straight into the mansion.
Zhang Han silently counted his heartbeats and roughly estimated that the person had already entered the room for a full two-quarters of an hour.
"Sir, are we just going to keep waiting like this?" In the narrow alley, a detective walked out and asked in a low voice.
In the darkness, in the narrow and long alley, there are more than a dozen pairs of eyes hidden. Everyone's knives are wrapped in cloth, and their boots are also made of the softest cloth to prevent them from making noise in the collision.
Zhang Han said nothing and shook his head, but his eyes were fixed on the house.
Due to the intelligence delivered by Zhao Duan during the day, Ma Yan temporarily changed his tactics.
"Since the demon can possess others and get close to the target, the strategy of waiting and waiting will not work. If someone approaches Kong Hanlin, don't scare the snake. When the demon leaves, you can follow him secretly and try to trace his identity."
Ma Dugong's voice echoed in his memory.
"Come out!"
Suddenly, everyone who was feeling uncomfortable was pleasantly surprised. The closed door of Kong's house opened, and the jealous woman walked out alone.
She closed the door, checked her direction, and walked towards the cold side of the street.
Suddenly he stopped, turned around, and headed straight towards the narrow alley where everyone was hiding.
"Come out, I see you."
The woman said with a smile. At this moment, the clouds were blown away by the wind, and the moonlight shone down, illuminating her weird smile.
Zhang Han's heart sank, he gripped the hilt of the seven-foot sword, stepped out, and said in a deep voice: "Take it!"
Jinyi filed out from behind, the sound of drawing swords was heard, and they quickly formed a half-arc formation.
No one tried to talk to this enchanting monster.
However, under the moonlight, the woman just looked at them approaching with a smile, and suddenly pressed her head with both hands and turned it hard!
"Crack!"
The woman broke her neck, turned her head 180 degrees, and fell down on the spot, already dead.
"ah--"
Even the Jinyi people who had killed and beaten people were also shocked.
"Hulala-"
Suddenly, there was the sound of robes shaking in the night sky.
Ma Yan was like a huge night owl, riding on the wind, rushing from the distant buildings and floating to the ground.
He was wearing a black and red cloak with a solemn look on his stern face: "What's going on?"
Zhang Han quickly explained the situation and finally said:
"It's the same as what Zhao Jisi said, the demonic real body didn't come at all, and it noticed us and didn't give us a chance to follow it."
Ma Yan turned his head, looked at Kong Zhai, and said, "Where is Kong Hanlin?"
"My subordinates haven't gone in to investigate yet."
Ma Yan stepped forward, his cloak stretched behind him like a lotus leaf:
"Go and have a look. We will take Kong Hanlin away later and put the entire Kong Mansion under control. Let us wait until we are sure that the people inside are okay."
With that said, the officials who were lying in ambush rushed into Kong's house. Under the frightened eyes of the people in the house, Ma Yan went straight to the study and stretched out his hand to push it away!
Then he was stunned.
I saw that in the study, the candles had been extinguished, and the thin and old Kong Hanlin hanged himself on the beam.
His eyes were protruding, his body was like a piece of hanging bacon, and under his feet was a stool that he had kicked over to the ground.
"Ah! Master!" Outside the door, the old wife who came over whined and fainted.
Ma Yan's face was as dark as water, and he ignored the commotion. He walked to the desk and saw the "Zi Bu Yu Kuai Li Chaos Shen" that was torn in half and the saint's books scattered on the floor.
"The Governor...this..."
Ma Yan didn't say a word, but suddenly realized something, and said to himself: "Not good!"
Immediately, he flew out of Kong's house, jumped into the air, and flew towards the night with his cloak fluttering.
He suspected that accidents would also happen to Lieutenant General Qian Niuwei and Priest Zhao of Dan Dao.
Now that the demon has seen through the Yamen's tracking trick, he must change his plan and try his best to avoid more casualties.
…
…
"Sir, it's time to close. Look..."
In the city, inside a certain shop.
A waiter wearing an "apron" and holding a rag in his hand walked to the corner of the store and said to the particularly handsome young customer.
In the Dayu Dynasty, apart from the Fireworks and Willow Alley, there was no other "nightlife", and the food and drink shops would close earlier.
At this moment, there is only one table left in this shop, and the waiter has blown out half of the lanterns.
Wu Ling, the signature young actor of Bafang Theater who has gained a certain reputation in the Beijing theater circle, was stunned for a moment.
He glanced at the empty shop, then at the eaten side dishes and the empty wine bottle on the table in front of him.
After a moment of silence, he stood up, put down a bunch of coins, smiled apologetically, and said goodbye and went out. After walking out of the shop, Wu Ling walked on the quiet street, her expression serious.
Today is the day agreed to meet with the upline "ballast stone" to deliver the news.
However, Wu Ling waited until the shop closed and did not wait for the "online" to appear.
"Is there something that was delayed? The ballast stone was so thoughtful. Logically speaking, this kind of thing shouldn't happen." Wu Ling felt strong uneasiness in her heart.
As a member of Kuang Fu She's spies, he did not know that the "upline" was dead, and he knew nothing about the arrival of the national division.
But as a spy, the instinctive sense of crisis in his heart made it difficult for him to calm down.
After some weighing, Wu Ling gritted her teeth and chose to take the risk to meet another member.
As a martial arts sorcerer in the Shenzhang realm who majored in "Drama God", he was a high-ranking member of the branch and had the contact information of more than one spy.
Wu Ling ran like a ghost in the night, making a long circle in the alley to make sure there were no "followers" behind her, and then she appeared outside the "Golden House" bookstore.
Knocked on the door, no answer.
Wu Ling simply jumped up, entered the courtyard lightly, opened the door, and saw the dishes and chopsticks on the table that had not been cleared away, and the candles that were still burning.
In the dim room, there was no shadow of the "Golden Eagle".
"Something's wrong!"
Wu Ling's eyes narrowed and he suddenly noticed some strange traces in the house. Following the traces, he pushed open the back window and found that the window was damaged and seemed to have been forcibly closed.
When he walked to the backyard, he saw clearly messy and unclear footprints on the ground.
"Oops!"
Wu Ling's heart sank, and she turned around, and her whole body suddenly transformed into a thin, palm-sized "donkey shadow puppet" depicting a little man in costume. It floated out of the yard in the wind, until it was safe in the distance. Only then returned to human form.
"Something happened to the Golden Eagle?"
Wu Ling was anxious, gritted her teeth, turned around and looked for the nearest spy, but still missed.
He didn't give up, so he simply used his magic to run away to a certain area, found the third spy, and missed again!
Missing!
Missing!
Still missing!
At this moment, Wu Ling felt intensely anxious and didn't understand what was going on.
He gritted his teeth, forced himself to calm down, turned around and ran towards his residence - Bafang Theater!
He didn't have many spies, and he couldn't continue to search for them, but he knew that if an accident happened, someone would definitely notify him.
When Wu Ling returned to the Bafang Theater, he crouched on the outer wall and tapped his eyebrows with his fingers using a secret technique. A misty blue light came out of his eyes.
After confirming that there was nothing unusual around the theater, he carefully transformed into a "donkey shadow puppet" and floated into the courtyard to avoid the attention of other people in the theater.
Then he turned sideways and squeezed into his room through the crack in the door.
"Huh... something is wrong, something is very wrong! I can wait until dawn at most. If there is no news from the ballast stone, I can only take the risk of using the backup channel and try to contact the chief helmsman..."
Wu Ling was thinking, and suddenly, his whole body froze. The big donkey shadow puppet suddenly opened its eyes, staring at the figure sitting cross-legged on the bed in the room, meditating.
It was a Taoist wearing a black and white plaid robe, his hair fixed with a mahogany hairpin, and a mahogany sword slung across his back.
He is about fifty years old, with a slightly three-dimensional face and two very eye-catching yellow eyebrows.
"Haha," the Enchanting Imperial Master looked down at the little man at the door with his deep eyes, the corners of his mouth slowly raised, and his hands pointing forward:
"Just in time, I'm here to protect my country's teacher."
…
…
On the other side, Zhao Duan led the Lihuatang group and followed the same pattern.
Based on the information obtained from "Huang Huangrong", spies were quickly picked out one after another.
Every time, the Thousand-Faced God disguised himself to gain trust, first used tricks to stabilize the opponent, and then took advantage of him when he was not prepared. With the cooperation of Lihuatang Jinyi, he captured him, and then Gongshu Tianyuan used the fox fairy to interrogate him.
The cycle goes back and forth.
At Zhao Duan's deliberate request, the Thousand-faced God revealed the truth about the Xuanmen coup with different people again and again.
Yunxi held the "two-tone flower" and was forced to hear the cruel truth again and again.
The girl maintained her composure at first, with a firm expression, but gradually, as more and more people gave her answers, Zhuang Xiaocheng personally trained and trained him, thinking that he was doing harm to the people, and fighting for justice with passion. The cracks in the girl's sincere heart are getting bigger and bigger.
Until I don't know when, tears were already streaming down my face, like a puppet that had lost its soul.
The handkerchief Qingniao held to wipe her tears was soaked.
"You all know that the master is lying, right?"
During another parking interval, Yun Xi suddenly turned her head and looked at the blue bird with tears in her eyes.
Qingniao avoided his eyes in shame and whispered: "I...I didn't dare to tell you in prison..."
"So, the master is lying to me? To us? To everyone in the world?"
"……kindness."
Yun Xi closed her eyes in pain, opened them again, and turned to look at Zhao Duan. A self-deprecating smile suddenly appeared on the girl's beautiful face:
"Am I stupid? You all know that, but I am the only one who doesn't know. I am still in prison foolishly thinking about dying heroically. So, when Zhuang Xiaocheng abandoned me, I should have understood."
Zhao Duan was too lazy to pay attention to the girl whose faith had collapsed. He stepped out of the carriage, looked at the people returning empty-handed in front of him, and frowned:
"No success?"
