Chapter 679 The Final Journey of the Annual Ceremony

This place is not far from the government office. As soon as I heard that the "big monster carrying a volute" had appeared, the officials rushed here at a record-breaking speed.

The leader stood on the edge of the board and took a look. His palms were sweating. He quickly turned around and gave the order:

"Let the magician arrange the forbidden escape technique, hurry up, hurry up!"

Isn't this the legendary snail toad that brought disaster to Chiyan? It actually appeared in Lingxu. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

As long as you catch it, you will be promoted to a higher position and become a leader!

They specially brought several magicians over, and upon hearing the order, they dispersed and went to bury weapons in the four corners of the warehouse.

I heard that this big monster is very good at escaping from the ground, so let’s abolish its signature skill and turn it into a turtle in a urn!

There are seven or eight versions of Snail Toad in Lingxu City, but unfortunately, none of them can cover all its skills, such as those unique to frogs and chameleons——

Long tongue curling cumshot!

The officer leader shouted a few words to his subordinates at the top of his lungs. He had just assigned the task when suddenly there was a sound of breaking through the air from behind.

He was swept back before he had time to react.

Snail Toad thought he was too noisy, so he rolled him back with a flick of his tongue in full view of everyone, and was suffocated!

The distance between the two was a full two feet, and the toad's tongue broke two wooden boards when it popped out.

This speed breaks people's stereotype of snails being slow.

Seeing that this thing actually had long-range attack skills, the crowd around him screamed and fled in all directions.

The snail toad smacked its lips, as if after a while, then plunged into the ground and disappeared without a trace.

The magician's forbidden escape array wasn't even set up yet, and the prey escaped.

One person died in the line of duty.

After night falls, Nanxinzhuang is still brightly lit.

The demon-slaying murderer of Bai Shaqian actually appeared in Lingxu City. Such sensational news was spreading. The Nancheng Bureau immediately mobilized all its forces to interrogate every witness.

The children had long since disappeared without a trace. As the first discoverer, Mrs. Liu was questioned repeatedly.

"Sir, I've told you this several times!" She cooperated obediently at the beginning, then became dry and impatient. "I don't know when the monster came. Anyway, it fell down when I saw it. In the warehouse. I accidentally touched the board, and when it turned around, it seemed to be holding something in its mouth! "

The official showed her the herb: "Is it this kind of herb? Are you sure?"

"It should be, right?" Mrs. Liu scratched her head, "I'm not a doctor, how can I identify them so carefully? Aren't they everywhere in the warehouse?"

"What kind of goods does this Baisong Warehouse usually carry?"

"I don't know. Cars usually come and go, but who cares about this?" Mrs. Liu was confused, "It didn't invite me to come in and guard the courtyard."

It made sense, so the officials took several of the guards back and interrogated them severely.

These guys were so frightened that they said they had never seen a snail toad before. When it rained heavily, they were all fast asleep in the house, not knowing that such a huge thing had entered the yard.

"What happened to the Prunella vulgaris in the warehouse? Where did it come from?"

"That's...the goods." They only load and unload the goods and guard the house. Can they also care about where the owner buys the goods?

Finally, the steward of Baisong Warehouse was also found.

He denied that the warehouse stored Prunella vulgaris, but the list found by the official in the warehouse clearly stated:

"Prunella vulgaris, 1,300 kilograms,... put into storage."

The date of storage and the source of the herbal medicine were wet with water, and the ink was smeared into a ball, making it unknown.

Involving the elixir case, the Nancheng Bureau did not dare to delay and reported it quickly.

Such a large and important case can be handled with considerable efficiency.

Soon, the owner behind the Baisong Warehouse was also found out. He turned out to be the surrendered general of Yuan Kingdom and the general of Xunzhou Mu Nian Zanli Nian!

…

Before dawn, Nian Mansion welcomed uninvited guests:

Ting Wei Huo Jian, Du Yunshi Bai Ziqi, and their heavily armed troops.

Nian Zanli has always had the habit of getting up early. Just after washing up, he received the news that two senior officials came to the door, and his heart couldn't help but thump.

Why are these two people?

Tingwei never does anything good when he comes forward, let alone Duyunshi.

Nian Zanli did not dare to neglect, and went out to greet him: "Shi Bai, Mr. Huo, what kind of wind brings you two here?"

Huo Jian asked him: "Does the Baisong Warehouse in Nanxinzhuang belong to you?"

"...I bought it at the beginning of the year." Nian Zanli's heart sank. Something happened to the house on Xiangmai Street a few days ago. Officials had already come to see him once. He felt something was wrong at that time, but no one came to see him again. What is this now?

He asked cautiously: "What happened to Baisong Warehouse?"

"Master Nian, please come with us." Bai Ziqi smiled, "We'll talk slowly on the way."

"Huh? This?"

The silent Tiangong guards immediately surrounded him.

There were few people in the early morning, but with such a large formation outside Nian Mansion, pedestrians still stopped one after another.

There are restaurants and inns in the blocks outside Nianfu, which are open all night long.

He Lingchuan was sitting by the window on the second floor, drinking wine and eating side dishes, and had a panoramic view of the scene happening below.

He came at night and wanted to get to an excellent viewing position, just to watch the excitement of the first crop.

Although the light was dim, with his eyesight he could still clearly see Nian Zanli being surrounded by the Tiangong Guards. The expression on his face changed from confusion to shock, and then from shock to confusion.

Bai Ziqi still saved some face for him, found a carriage and invited him to take a seat.

Nian Zanli seemed a little excited, but the court officer stepped forward and said a few words to him. Nian Zanli was like a deflated ball, looking back every few steps and getting on the carriage.

Then the carriage started slowly and headed northeast.

The guards surrounded it in the middle, with great momentum.

He Lingchuan shook the cup and toasted it with a glass of wine: "General Nian, have a good journey."

He came to see Nian Zanli off, and he saw the rumbling of the carriage as he wished, taking away all of Nian Zanli's ambitions.

In another hour, it will be sunrise, and he hopes that Nian Zanli will hurry up to enjoy it.

Maybe, Nian Zanli will not see the sunrise for the rest of his life.

Whether it is the prison in the sky or the prison in the palace of heaven, it seems that there is no daylight.

"The big trouble of Yuan Kingdom has been solved, congratulations." The soul-catching mirror in his arms smiled, "Can he still get out?"

"Probably not." He Lingchuan's mood also relaxed.

Once he is targeted by the palace of heaven, Nian Zanli will be skinned alive. Want to attack Yuan Kingdom? Oh, he should worry about his life first.

"Since he wants to recognize Beijia as his master, then thunder, lightning, rain and dew are all blessings from heaven, and he has to bear them all."

The Soul Mirror sighed: "You get rid of Nian Zanli, which means you have saved Yuan Country from a huge disaster. Unfortunately, Yuan Country knows nothing about it!"

Nian Zanli borrowed troops, but failed, and Yuan Country also avoided more than one war disaster.

For this weak country, it may survive for a few more years.

"This trouble started because of me, and it will also go away because of me. It's fair. Besides, I don't care whether Yuan Country knows it or not." He Lingchuan raised his head and swallowed the wine in the cup, threw down a silver ingot, and stood up and left.

He has completed two of the four major tasks in Lingxu City on time and as he wished.

Next, he will go all out for the Xushan Plan!

...

Tourists who have been to the Heavenly Palace will hear the tour guide mention that there is also a prison on Tianshu Peak, where evil people who offend the gods are imprisoned, called Yang Palace.

It is located behind the Zhaixing Tower, and no one is allowed to approach. It is actually a cave-like prison made by hollowing out the mountain belly, with only one passage in and out.

Of course, the Beijia gods have a relatively broad definition of the word "offense". Ordinary people usually say a few disrespectful words, but they turn a deaf ear to it. After all, the Lord of Lingxu City has a free atmosphere. But if you take actual action, you may be held accountable.

When Yang Palace was first established, it was said that all beings were equal in the eyes of the gods, so there was no hierarchy and all prisoners were treated equally.

But as time went by, there was still a gap between the prisoners. After all, some had more serious crimes, some had more secrets, and some... had a higher status.

So after so many years, the prisons of Yang Palace are actually divided into several levels.

The highest-level cell is in the deepest part of Yang Palace, and you can actually see the sky, but it is not by the air window. After all, there are all kinds of magical powers in this world, and escaping from a palm-sized window is not uncommon.

This place is separated from the outside world by a large glazed window, and the skylight can easily penetrate. The prisoners sitting behind the window can even see the magnificent mountain scenery behind Tianshu Peak.

Of course, this kind of treatment is not available to ordinary prisoners.

The person living in this cell now is Qingyang Guoshi.

She is a top-level felon and enjoys a 30-square-meter single-person landscape cell. Although this is the deepest part of Yang Palace, with the unique fishy smell of the cave, the ground is not damp at all. The prison was cleaned before she came in, and there was no trace of rats and fleas.

No matter what the reason, Qingyang Guoshi was treated differently even in prison.

After being sent here by Lingxiao Palace, Qingyang Guoshi explained to Tiangong one by one according to what she had discussed with the Demon Emperor.

How to hunt monsters, how to refine immortality medicine, and how to sell it with the help of Qingfu Temple in recent years, she told the truth.

Tiangong wants to know nothing more than two points, one is the source of the divine blood, and she pushed it to Dong Rui.

The second was the customer who bought the immortality medicine. Qingyang Imperial Master only said that the list account book had been destroyed in the fire of Qingfu Temple, and no one had a backup.

Apart from that, she didn't say a word.

She was sent by the Emperor himself, and the Heavenly Palace knew that there must have been sufficient communication between the two. Qingyang Imperial Master said that the account book was gone, and it was gone and could not be found.

Due to her special status and her weight in the eyes of the Emperor, the Heavenly Palace did not punish her.

No matter how turbulent the outside world was, the Yang Palace was always dead and isolated from the world.

In the afternoon, the Heavenly Palace attendant came to deliver food.

He could only deliver it to the door. The food box had to be collected by the prison guard for inspection to ensure that there was no smuggled goods or notes before it was given to the prisoner.

"Qingyang Imperial Master, it's time to eat."

The prison guard opened the small door and stuffed the food box in after checking that it was correct.
