Chapter 390 Hired Helpers

"A lot of monsters and people have been caught in the city these days, right?"

"There are a lot of people who are mentally ill and disorderly, and there are also a lot of people who take advantage of the chaos to rob. There are also people who take the opportunity to kill people." Wu Jinsong asked the waiter for a bowl of tea. "The government offices are almost overwhelmed by people who report the crime, and the police officers are also very busy. Do you believe it? A boy was eaten by his own pig. When the official arrived, he was half dead."

"By the way, where are you going to meet Emperor Liuxian?"

"Leave the city to the northeast and stay away from the countryside." He Lingchuan clasped his fists at him, "Speaking of which, I would also like to thank Taifu for his guidance." If Taifu Sha hadn't informed him in advance, his gains this time would never have been so great.

Wu Jinsong smiled and said: "I will convey it. By the way, have you ever been to Sanxinyuan? There are three connected lakes in the center."

Sanxinyuan? He Lingchuan's heart skipped a beat. The place where he held Emperor Jie's liquid was the Sanxinyuan!

"I ran more than a hundred miles northeast, and I wasn't sure where I was. I just knew it was empty, but there was indeed a big lake." He Lingchuan asked seriously, "What happened?"

"Shanze in Sanxinyuan is dead." Wu Jinsong said, "Taifu received the news that the turmoil among the monsters in Sanxinyuan did not stop after the end of the emperor's fluid. Instead, it expanded. Not only were foreign envoys injured, Even nearby villages and towns were affected, with more than 200 casualties and farmland trampled over.”

"When these troubles arose, Fufeng City sent people to investigate. The first information came in, saying that the local Shanze was dead. The monsters and beasts were not restrained, and their ferocious nature was aroused by the emperor's fluid. Trouble everywhere."

"Is Shan Ze dead?" He Lingchuan was slightly shocked. It seems that the battle on the night when the Emperor's Liquid broke out was extremely fierce, and even Shan Ze was killed.

Could it be that one of the monsters who died on the edge of Sanxin Lake was from a local mountain?

"The weird thing is that it died on the second night when the emperor's liquid erupted." Wu Jinsong took a sip of tea, "Even the Taifu found it incredible that Shanze in Sanxinyuan could be killed by people or monsters. ”

"What's so special about it?"

"There are so many clones." Wu Jinsong said, "The mountains and swamps of Sanxinyuan are very special. They are not the common tigers, wolves, lions and tree monsters, but a kind of man-eating fungus!"

He Lingchuan paused as he raised the glass: "Fungi? You mean fungi, mushrooms?"

It can't be that coincidental?

"More or less, I haven't seen it personally. I only know that it has many clones, scattered in every corner of the forest. It is not easy to kill it. The official also gave it the position of Shanze because of its extraordinary talent. It is said that in Sanxin No matter how ferocious the monster is, you don’t dare to mess with it, lest you be blamed later for revenge.”

"Then how can we confirm that it is dead?"

"I heard that that night, dozens of clones of the man-eating fungus exploded. This is probably called no corpse left, right?" Wu Jinsong said seriously, "The existence that can destroy it in one fell swoop is only a hundred meters away from Fufeng City. But we don’t know its origin, and the government is a little uneasy.”

Wu Jinsong sighed: "This time the emperor's liquid happened before my king's birthday, which is a good thing and a trouble. After Sanxinyuan Shanze died, the demons in this place rioted. I heard that more than a dozen people came to Fufeng City to congratulate them. Four of the envoys were injured in those two nights. The master has been very busy these days, dealing with these things. "

The "existence of unknown origin" smiled and said: "It is true that the competition is fierce, and all kinds of monsters and ghosts appear. But how come the mission is also affected?"

"What's wrong with the mission? There are monsters in the mission as well." Wu Jinsong shrugged, "The monsters' resistance to the Emperor's Ouyang is just worse than that of us humans."

He Lingchuan shook his head: "It seems that it is not easy for me to come back alive."

"You will be lucky if you survive the disaster." Wu Jinsong stood up, "I just came over to see if you were back. If I still have something to do, I will come to see you for a drink tomorrow night."

"Thank you for your concern."

After Wu Jinsong left, He Lingchuan raised his hand and asked for a plate of donkey meat in sauce.

Isn't it said that the donkey meat in sauce here is very famous? Try it.

It turned out that the monster that attacked him in the cave a few days ago was Shanze from Sanxinyuan?

The mountains and rivers are dignified, but there is no martial ethics.

However, He Lingchuan knew very well that Shanze himself was also a monster, looking for food and not caring about human nature.

The man-eating fungus accepted the canonization of Fufeng City and only restrained the mountain monsters and wild beasts. On the big day when Emperor Liujian comes, it must first think about itself.

This also explains why it can find He Lingchuan and launch a precise sneak attack.

After becoming Shanze, it can understand many things happening on the territory. Perhaps it noticed that He Lingchuan had made a lot of gains on Sanxin Lake, and it couldn't help but feel excited, so it took action.

Who says a creep must be ethical?

The spies sent out by Fufeng City thought that some powerful person had taken action and destroyed dozens of Shanze's clones.

In fact, it was just that it could not withstand the power of the Emperor's Ooze.

Shanze's dozens of clones couldn't get through. Thinking of this, He Lingchuan was frightened.

He has come back to his senses now. Perhaps the piece of imperial ooze he took to refine was too big and too pure, and it almost killed him.

Emperor's Liquid is so rare today. When Helianchen prescribed it for him, he definitely didn't expect that he would get such a top quality piece.

If Shanze hadn't been a good man who fought to the end, he would have been extremely happy and sad.

However, although most of the power of the Emperor's Liquid is assigned to the man-eating bacteria, it itself has slow-release properties. In the next few months, the moist power of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth will still penetrate and be released bit by bit, boosting He Lingchuan's practice.

After this lesson, he no longer dares to be greedy.

Also, why are those people looking for him?

He half believed Fushan's words. Now it has been four or five days since the outbreak of Emperor Liujiang. Whoever gets this kind of spiritual object will refine it and eat it as soon as possible. It is meaningless for others to come after it.

There are few formulas in the world like Baishan Pills that can refine Emperor Liujiang into auxiliary medicine for long-term use. Helian Chen has confirmed this.

Then, this group of people are chasing him hard, not for Emperor Liujiang.

What do they want to do?

He Lingchuan left the inn and turned around to see the crow landing on the roof opposite.

This thing has not given up yet.

He felt a sense of resentment in his heart:

If a tiger does not show its power, it will be regarded as a sick cat.

He Lingchuan thought about it and went to the market again.

The crow was still flying in the sky, following all the way.

But there were many low corridors in the market, and its sight was blocked by buildings. It only knew that He Lingchuan entered a low house, but it didn't know what he was doing inside.

It didn't dare to get close to take a closer look.

There were more than one human active in Sanxinyuan that night, and the robber who stole the Emperor's Cream was wearing a mask, but the more the crow looked at his back, the more familiar he looked, and he always felt that he was following the right person.

Keep an eye on this guy!

Not long after, He Lingchuan came out with a basket. The basket was covered with cloth, and the crow couldn't see what was inside.

Then He Lingchuan returned to the inn where he stayed, closed the doors and windows, and never showed up again.

The crow was afraid that he would sneak away, so he landed on the roof of the inn to observe whether there were any suspicious figures walking out of the front door and the backyard at the same time.

...

The crow kept watching for two hours until dark.

He Lingchuan's door was always closed, as if he had fallen asleep inside.

The crow counted the hours in his heart. If the night got darker, those people would come to take action.

A sharp "squeak" suddenly came from the edge of the patio, which scared the crow.

It turned out that two guests pushed the door out, walked arm in arm, and laughed loudly.

The crow shook its feathers in dissatisfaction.

Its attention was drawn to this little accident, and the sound of the door opening covered up a strange noise behind it.

A black shadow had been lying in ambush behind it for a long time, and suddenly rushed out while it was distracted, and pressed its wings.

The crow was startled, and the black shadow pounced forward and bit its neck accurately!

The crow flapped its wings desperately, trying to break free.

As a result, two more shadows rushed out from the back of the roof and attacked it in groups, one biting its legs and the other biting its wings, in short, they pressed it to the tiles.

The crow then saw clearly that it was a three-headed cat that attacked it!

One big and two small, black body and white claws, like they were carved from the same mold.

The big cat is a monster, and its size is almost catching up with the pastoral dog. It is an overwhelming force to deal with this crow.

The crow was so anxious that it cried out: "Loosen your mouth, loosen your mouth. I'll pay double what that person gave!"

However, the cat demon was very ethical and ignored it. It tore the crow's trachea in two and a half strokes.

They are professional at catching birds.

The two kittens were greedy for its body, but the big cat didn't allow them to eat it. They jumped onto He Lingchuan's windowsill with the prey in their mouths and scratched it twice.

After hearing this signal, the window opened immediately.

When He Lingchuan saw the crow's body, he couldn't help but give the cat demon a thumbs up: "Awesome!"

It was so easy to help him solve the eyes on the roof. As expected, there is a natural thing to defeat another.

The cat put the prey on the windowsill and meowed.

The task was completed, and what about the reward?

The other two kittens followed immediately, saying that they had contributed and wanted equal pay for equal work.

He Lingchuan immediately took out a large bag of bulging dried fish from the house and showed it to the cat demon first: "They are all dried with stream fish that are one finger long from the small river in the east of the city, without salt."

In addition, there was a gold ingot next to the dried fish.

Not bad, this employer is quite generous. The cat demon nodded to show his satisfaction, and He Lingchuan hung the bundle around its neck and gave them the crow corpse.

The three black cats jumped onto the roof and disappeared into the night.

But He Lingchuan knew they were not gone yet, and there was more to the employment agreement. He closed the doors and windows again, walked around the corridor to the house opposite, and pushed the door in.

He also rented this house, but used the name of a caravan man. Looking out from this side, it was just right to monitor the old house.

He poked a small hole in the window paper, moved a chair and sat in front of the window, holding a knife in his hand.

The eyeball spider had already heard that he might have another wave of guests tonight.

The night was getting darker, the moon was slanting and people were quiet.

Only the katydids in the haystack downstairs were calling.

It would be dawn in half an hour.

This was actually the time when everyone slept the deepest.

He Lingchuan's ears moved, and suddenly he heard two short crow calls from outside the inn.
