After the Fairy Disappeared - Chapter 525
Chapter 525 Caught back
It turned its head and uttered a sharp syllable, as if it had whistled, and a finless porpoise sank into the water instantly behind it, probably to send an announcement to the aquariums of the Liu River.
The rest were kept, because He Lingchuan requisitioned six fishing boats in Xiahe Bay. In order to travel quickly with light loads, each boat took two passengers.
The fishermen untied the cables and threw them into the water. The lively finless porpoises bit them and dragged the fishing boats to swim towards the middle of the river.
Two finless porpoises tow a boat with ease. Once started, it keeps getting faster and faster.
It was clearly just a breeze on the river surface, but the boat was dragged by them out of the feeling of riding the wind and waves.
The fishermen are a little embarrassed standing on the bow, and it doesn’t matter whether the oar is stretched into the water or not.
All six boats were heading downstream at a speed of at least fifty miles.
The Liuhe River flows sometimes fast and sometimes slow, and there are many small rocky islands in the center of the river. If you are rowing by hand, you have to be careful to avoid it, which is far less fast than the finless porpoise.
What’s more, He Lingchuan knows that under the seemingly calm waters, the Liuhe aquarium in this section of water has been mobilized to faithfully carry out the order of the prince of the demon country to find people.
Finding a boat on the huge Liuhe River is like finding a needle in a haystack. This is only for human beings.
No matter how meticulous Wu Kai’s escape was, he was only a human after all, with limited means and limited abilities.
He Lingchuan felt emotional. This method of tracking is simply a dimensionality reduction attack.
…
Three days later, far away in Lingxu City.
Zhaixing There are people gathered downstairs, and they waited from sunset to moonrise, but they didn’t get a chance to enter.
There were more and more people waiting, chatting with each other, and even talked about the sudden fire in the Qingfu Temple in Lingxu City, which was full of incense.
A question, they all come for the same thing.
Another half an hour later, the number of people gradually decreased again.
If you can’t get in, you can’t get in. The top is just waiting for them, and there is no point in waiting any longer.
In the end, there were only three people left, and they stayed in place for a long time.
This time, it was not until the moon was in the middle of the sky that the lantern guards in the Zhaixing Building came out under the shadow of the whirling trees and saluted them:
“Several elders, are you here for the inspection case?”
“That’s right. This is a big matter, we want to see the emperor!”
“The emperor is communicating with the gods, and will not return to the palace tonight.”
That is to say, you won’t be able to leave this star-catching building, and you won’t be able to wait.
“But this case, this case… must be discussed and considered, and a special person should be sent as soon as possible.”
The Lantern Keeper said respectfully: “The emperor said that the envoys sent to Chiyan earlier will investigate this matter together. He should have arrived in Baisha. Please don’t worry about it, elders.”
“The special envoy sent to Chiyan?” The three were taken aback, they had never heard of it before, “Who is it?”
Don’t have to worry about it means that you are not allowed to interfere. They all understood.
“It’s Mr. Bai from our Star Picking Tower.”
The three of them looked at each other, and sure enough they all shut up, but their expressions were complicated.
…
the next day.
Dawn in the east, the residents of Baishayu were awakened by the sound of rumbling horseshoes again.
Some of them got up early, and witnessed the prince’s special envoy returning to the city triumphantly. At the same time, he also brought back a carriage and a prisoner who was tied up.
This news, of course, will be spread out at an accelerated rate with the help of interested people.
Wu Kai, the key witness in this series of cases of Baisha, failed to abscond and was arrested by the special envoy of the prince!
At most three to five hours, the whole city will know.
He Lingchuan returned to the inn, and Fushan warmly greeted him and gave him a high five:
“You are really good!”
He was also worried these days, He Lingchuan escorted Wu Kai back to the city, he really breathed a sigh of relief.
Steady!
He Lingchuan clapped arms with him, then smiled and said, “Is Cen Boqing peaceful these few days?”
Fu Shanyue spat on the ground: “An Fen…a p!”
It turned out that in the past few days when He Lingchuan left the city, Cen Boqing continued to escape, and even tried to change his appearance, trying to get out of the house, but was blocked by Fu Shanyue.
The two fought against each other, and no one dared to approach them. In the end, Cen Boqing was defeated, half of his arm was broken, and he retreated to the mansion.
Fu Shanyue’s anger was also blown out. Seeing that this person did not eat the toast, he simply ordered Lu Dutong to lead people to seal the front and rear doors of the Cen Mansion. If there is a shortage of food and drink in the mansion, the officers and soldiers will buy them and throw them over the wall, and the people inside will never even think about getting out.
If you dare to jump out, you will be beaten.
Anyway, the civilians in Baisha are enjoying the fun these days.
Fu Shanyue even rented out the mansion next door to the Cen Mansion, and sat on the attic to keep an eye on it himself.
He is a ghost, and he is very energetic without sleep for days and nights.
In this deadly game, Cen Boqing failed in several attempts, and Fu Shanyue saw him smashing things in the mansion in a fit of anger several times. Baishazhen was a hurdle he hit, as long as he passed it, he would be able to escape back to Lingxu City, where his chances of winning would greatly increase.
It’s a pity, I just can’t get out!
Fu Shanyue is also a little proud of this, after all, when Cen Boqing escaped from the mansion secretly, he was beaten with a black nose and a swollen face, which can be regarded as avenging his previous revenge in Lingxu City.
He clapped his hands and said, “Let’s go to interrogate Wu Kai.”
Wu Kai did not end up in the county prison, but was detained alone in the wine cellar of the inn.
Now he enjoys the same treatment as Fu Songhua, and also wears a shackle with runes drawn on it. This thing can imprison spiritual power, and prisoners cannot use supernatural powers.
As soon as the prince arrived, everyone’s work efficiency instantly increased. The wine cellar had been emptied, and there were only two chairs inside, and Wu Kai sat on the ground wearing a shackle.
In the four corners of the cellar, there is also a formation that prohibits escape, so as to prevent the prisoners from being robbed by others.
Needless to say, there are guards guarding both inside and outside the cellar.
Fu Shanyue and He Lingchuan walked into the cellar, and saw Wu Kai sitting on the ground with his eyes closed.
Someone came, but he didn’t open his eyes.
The guard in charge of guarding said that since Wu Kai came, he has always looked like this, not saying a word or opening his eyes.
“Wu Kai.” Fu Shanyue pulled He Lingchuan to sit down, “What do you want to eat and drink?”
Wu Kai is like an old monk entering meditation.
The pursuit on the Liu River turned out to be twists and turns, beyond He Lingchuan’s expectations—Wu Kai changed boats halfway.
Everyone spent a lot of effort and almost lost it.
Fortunately, Shui Ling showed a strong control over the aquarium in the area, and within a long time, he still found out the whereabouts of Wu Kai’s new boat.
After the four people changed boats, they still traveled down the river for nearly a hundred miles, and landed at a small pier. The groom, Wu Kai’s daughter-in-law, and grandson pretended to be a family of three, and Wu Kai went north by himself.
The reason why it took three or four days was because He Lingchuan hoped to use Wu Kai as the bait to catch other big fish. What’s more, when Wu Kai went ashore here, He Lingchuan saw that he wanted to take his family out of Chiyan Kingdom.
As long as they enter the realm of the spirit void, it will not be so easy for the pursuers to catch them.
Everyone is also very strict in monitoring Wu Kai, if Cen Boqing takes action on this witness in advance, they will rush out to rescue him.
Fortunately, Wu Kai did not collapse suddenly.
During the two days of monitoring, Wu Kai never talked to anyone.
Either he couldn’t find someone to help, or he didn’t dare to ask someone for help.
He Lingchuan then caught them all at the border checkpoint.
However, Wu Kai’s caution also left a deep impression on He Lingchuan.
As a reward, starting from the second half of the year, that finless porpoise’s energy gained as Liuhe water spirit will increase greatly.
But the old man has been passive and recalcitrant since the day he was arrested. His grandson called and his daughter-in-law cried, but he was unmoved.
It seems that he has thought clearly.
“Aren’t you just looking for a price? It’s all right, don’t pretend to show me.” Fu Shanyue sneered at Wu Kai’s behavior, “Otherwise I will bring your grandson down and **** him dry in front of you. ”
Tough means + noble status, such an opponent is the most troublesome.
Wu Kai just opened his eyes, and said solemnly: “If you dare to hurt him, I won’t speak until I die.”
“Be honest, grandson might still have a way out.”
Wu Kai shut his mouth again and remained silent.
No matter what Fu Shanyue said later, he just didn’t take it up.
Walking back to the ground, Fu Shanyue felt displeased, and waved his hand to the guard: “Put his mouth open!”
This method is still simple and crude.
He Lingchuan said: “I’m afraid it’s not very useful.”
Sure enough, after a long time, the guards came to report, and Wu Kai fainted twice after being tortured, but he also gritted his teeth and refused to confess.
“He also knows that he is the most critical witness. If he doesn’t confess, he and Cen Boqing may not be convicted.” He Lingchuan said lightly, “If he did, he would die. If it were you, would you confess?”
“It can’t be compared like this!” Fu Shanyue looked upright, “Do you think I look like a person who knows the law and breaks the law?”
He Lingchuan acted as if he hadn’t heard this sentence: “In a few days, Lingxu City might send special envoys down, and things might turn around. So whether it’s him or Cen Boqing, what he wants to use most now is the word ‘drag’ .”
Fu Shan pondered more, “They are already suspicious of each other, we just need to work harder.”
If these two things work together, it will be against them.
“Isn’t this already started?” He Lingchuan had this in mind when he pulled the wind into the city this morning.
Now, the news of Wu Kai’s arrest has probably reached Cen Boqing, right?
He Lingchuan thought for a while before entering the cellar.
Wu Kai was still sitting there with his eyes half closed, but his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and there were blood stains on his clothes.
I don’t know how Fu Shanyue’s guards entertained him.
He Lingchuan dragged a chair and sat down beside him. The sound of the chair feet rubbing against the floor was so ear-piercing.
When the first beep sounded, he noticed that Wu Kai’s eyelids moved.
What are you pretending to be calm about, why don’t you listen to all directions? With a sneer in his heart, he said to Wu Kai: “You thought that you and Cen Boqing were on the same line. In fact, it would be safest for him to kill you. After all, the secrets of the pearls and the elixir are in your hands. He There are still so many dirty things that you did. As long as you, the key person, proves dead, he can get away with it.”
Wu Kai didn’t move, his breathing was not disturbed.
“Of course, you have probably thought about this. I see that a few amulets on your body are broken. Is it because you have been fleeing for two days?”
Wu Kai stared at him fixedly.
He Lingchuan observed his expression, and let out a long “oh”:
“Sure enough, Cen Boqing has been secretly cursing you for the past few days!”
