Chapter 147 Street Acrobatics

Wuzhou.

One of the ten southern states of Daqian, close to Zhenzhou.

Xu Fengxian led the dragon cavalry army to revolt from Anzhou and marched southward, occupying half of Zhenzhou.

After the war in northern Xinjiang was settled, Gongsun Qi took charge of Zhenzhou and dispatched troops and generals to contain the rebels.

Outside the capital, Tongcheng, there was a long line of people entering the city, and the soldiers inspected them carefully. Even though they were separated by several counties, rebels often came through and harassed Wuzhou counties.

When the soldiers saw a ray of light falling, they transformed into yellow-faced men and prepared their formations.

The Immortal Master of Xianfengsi who secretly used his magic to detect the situation also revealed his figure.

Zhou Yi transformed into Qin Qiong and showed the token of the Prince of Yan's Palace: "Qin Qiong of a certain family will be enshrined in the Palace of the Prince of Yan."

The immortal master guarding the city bowed and saluted: "I wonder why you came to Tongcheng?"

"Is Mr. Zhou Mu in the city?"

"Master Liu is discussing matters with others at the City Lord's Mansion."

"good."

Zhou Yi nodded slightly and disappeared. With his strength, he could completely remain unnoticed, but in order to use the power of the court to investigate the traces of Huo Xiaoyu's father, he still had to be famous.

The sacred cow has been included in the fairy beast space and was tested by Zhou Yi before.

No matter where the sacred cow is, you only need to summon it back to the fairy beast space, then summon it out again, and it will appear next to Zhou Yi.

Golden-winged Dapeng thought that the sacred cow was not with Zhou Yi, and believed that the fighting method had the upper hand. Even if he could not defeat Zhou Yi, he could still advance and retreat freely with the help of the Lion Demon Cave formation.

The result is that the golden dragon shears were not included in the calculation, and the sacred cow can be recalled at any time if it was missed.

Zhou Yi also didn't expect that the golden-winged roc was proficient in arithmetic, but he didn't expect victory before he expected defeat. He would not easily enter the Lion Demon Cave without a way out.

Sure enough, old monsters who have lived for thousands of years, even monsters who are not good at fortune-telling, have already mastered the method of magic deduction.

Zhou Yi arrived at the city lord's palace in a cloud and showed the Yanwang palace token. The guards immediately informed the state pastor.

The governor of Wuzhou was named Liu Yi. He was a great scholar in the Legalist realm and was over two hundred years old. He has served as the governor of more than ten counties, and last year he finally accumulated enough political achievements. There happened to be a vacancy in Wuzhou, so he was promoted to the third rank of state shepherd.

Liu Yi was slightly startled when he heard Qin Qiong's name, then left his guests and hurried out to greet him.

Ordinary people don't know Qin Qiong's name, but people of the third rank are like thunder.

A first-grade Qi Refiner has the status of the head of a sect in Daqian. If he enters the court as an official, he will start with a first-grade fictitious title and a second-grade actual duty.

The imperial court recruits high-ranking officials of the third grade all the year round. Unfortunately, except for the various schools of thought, which need the power of the imperial court to practice, others such as Buddhists, Taoists, gods and even sects are not willing to serve as officials in the imperial court.

Liu Yi saw Qin Qiong from a distance and took the lead in cupping his hands and saying, "I've heard Mr. Qin's name for a long time, and today I got to see him."

Zhou Yi said: "Master Liu, Mr. Qin came to visit today to ask for something."

Liu Yi led the way to the study and asked, "Mr. Qin, please speak."

"This is junior Qin..."

Zhou Yi appeared in the hand of Huo Xiaoyu Soul Bead and said: "About twenty years ago, their family was attacked by a thief. It may be related to the monks. Please ask Mr. Liu to inquire about the reason."

"I see, this matter is easy to handle."

This is not the first time Liu Yi has dealt with this kind of thing. Many god-refining monks have been in seclusion for ten or twenty years at a time. When they come out, they have changed.

"Miss Huo, I wonder where your hometown is?"

Huo Xiaoyu said: "Sir, I only remember it is Wuzhou, and my father is Juren."

"Since he is a scholar, and his identity as a civil servant is easy to check."

Liu Yi knew that Qin Qiong was hiding something, but it was better not to know some things. People who know many secrets will not live long.

Da Qian strictly managed the people under his rule, especially scholars. As long as he was selected as a scholar, he would be stamped with the imperial seal. Whether it is the state archives or the city god's Yin and Siyang books, there are detailed records before and after death.

The Tongcheng City God received the summons from the state pastor and knew that it was related to a high-ranking person, so he responded quickly.

Because the years in the past are too long, the Yin Division needs three to five days to check.

Liu Yi said: "Mr. Qin, there are many files in the state capital, and it will take three to five days to check..."

Zhou Yi cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Mr. Liu, I will wait in Tongcheng."

"No hard work, this is my duty!"

…

The streets of Tongcheng.

It was the season when the plane trees were blooming, and the whole city was dyed in lavender and tender green.

There is a legend in Wuzhou that a fairy beast, the phoenix, has landed, so local people planted sycamore trees in the hope that the phoenix would land in their homes.

Zhou Yi walked on the street and felt a completely different scenery from Luo Jing.

The climate in the southern state capital is mild, and the wind is less heavy and chilling and more beautiful and gentle.

In order to prevent Huo Xiaoyu from being frightened by half of his body floating around, Zhou Yi used an invisibility technique and walked street by street.

It was the first time that Huo Xiaoyu saw so many people. He couldn't help but be a little excited and kept asking questions.

For example, why can I walk freely on the streets, why can’t I see monsters, and what are the names of those foods?

Zhou Yi answered patiently that the little girl's reincarnation was imminent and her wish would be fulfilled in the past few days.

We happened to walk to a place where monkeys were performing. The stall owner held a bell and directed the monkeys to perform various actions.

Somersaulting, walking upside down, walking through fire rings, kowtowing to the audience, and holding a begging gong to ask for money...

The lively performance made the audience cheer and throw money into the gong.

Zhou Yi smiled and said: "Monster, isn't this it?"

"this……"

Huo Xiaoyu sensed the evil spirit in the little monkey. It could indeed be called a monster, but it was completely different from her impression.

There are also monkey demons in Shituo City, and the leader is the golden ape king, who likes to eat people's hearts. Every time he ate, he would tie the living person to the table, pierce his chest with a claw, and throw him into the frying pan while his heart was beating.

As soon as the oil is hot, eat it immediately.

The monkey demon in front of him had a flattering look on his face, and kept kowtowing for the penny reward.

"But this monkey demon is not without its disadvantages."

Zhou Yi looked at the owner of the monkey show stall. His breath was turbid and tainted with a trace of evil spirit.

With a wave of his hand, he drew out the demonic energy from the stall owner, and the hand pinching technique turned into a sealing mark, which fell into the body of the monkey demon.

The monkey demon suddenly trembled, as if the world became blurred, and his simple mental thinking was unclear, so he continued to bow to collect money.

at dusk.

Zhou Yi and Huo Xiaoyu came to the best restaurant in the city, Feng Lai Restaurant.

I ordered a large table of dishes, and now Zhou Yi is not short of more than ten taels of silver.

Huo Xiaoyu followed the techniques taught by Zhou Yi to mobilize the Yin Qi in his body to extract the breath from the dishes, and the taste of the dishes was directly revealed in his soul.

Fresh and spicy, with a variety of flavors.

Huo Xiaoyu hesitated excitedly: "There is such delicious food in the world, it's so delicious!"

The food of the demon country is dried meat and wild fruits. There is no land for farming in the country, and there is no need for humans to hunt and gather. The demon soldiers responsible for raising them can cast spells to hunt, and their efficiency is far beyond that of mortals.

In this way, the taste of food is no different from that of humans feeding cows and sheep.

The storyteller in Feng Lai Tower was telling the story of a certain warrior from Tongcheng who slayed demons. On the table were a volume of Monster Search Records and a volume of Executioner's Tales.

This story is not recorded in the book. Maybe it was heard by the storyteller, or maybe it was simply made up by combining the two books. Some of the things about monsters are not wrong.

"reward!"

Zhou Yi was happy to hear this and threw ingots of silver as rewards.
