After the immortal disappeared

During the preparation period, Mirror asked him:

"Are you still going to get involved in this case?"

"The more Fushan refuses to completely hand it over to Lingxu City, that must be the intention of the monarch." He Lingchuan shrugged, "The investigation has reached this point, I have to get the book."

"Why does Chiyan State hold on to this case?"

"Even if you ask Fu Shanyue, he won't tell the truth." Give an explanation to the victims of demons in this country? Hey, just listen.

At this moment, a guard knocked on the door and handed He Lingchuan a letter, saying that it was inserted under the door of the old guest room, so the clerk of the old inn sent it over.

There have been too many letters and gift orders sent to He Lingchuan by the old inn clerk in the past few days. After all, he had just done such a spectacular thing in Baishaguan.

His name, He Xiao, was written on the envelope, and the seal was intact.

He Lingchuan opened the letter and saw a familiar font on it:

Congratulations to the special envoy for surviving from the Dutch Palace.

You have some ability, and I have a love for talent, so I will give you a suggestion:

Get away in time before the case is closed, and don't serve as gunmen for the Fushan family and his son again.

There are gaps in Chiyan and Lingxu City. In the past seven years, Lingxu City has sent Chiyan troops out to fight four times. Chiyan has suffered heavy casualties and heavy burdens. That’s why Chiyan State has to strictly investigate the messenger case. Once something is found out...

Don't think that the prince can protect you.

If Lingxu City becomes dissatisfied, you may be the first unlucky person.

Signed, not famous.

He Lingchuan knew as soon as he saw the handwriting that it was Mai Xuewen's handwriting.

After this guy swallowed Zhongsun Mou, he didn't rush to escape. He even slipped back to the inn and left a note for him. He was so unhurried and bold.

The mirror also saw it: "The person named Mai has a loud tone, which is really annoying. But what he said is right. We are foreigners and we don't know the inside story of Bejia. Don't work hard for the Chiyan Kingdom, only to be backhanded by Fu Shanyue sold."

After all, Lingxu City and Chiyan Kingdom have a superior-subordinate relationship. No matter how the two sides play the game in the end, the dissatisfaction of the superior usually requires the inferior to pay a price before it can be dissipated.

Who will pay that price?

He Lingchuan shook his head: "Do you think we can retreat bravely now?"

"Ah, is it too late?"

"It's too late." He Lingchuan lit a fire and burned the letter to ashes. "From the moment I tracked down Cen Boqing, the matter became unsolvable. The water has become muddy."

"Zhongsun Mou is 90% dead, and Cen Boqing is trapped in his own mansion again. Lingxu City, Da Sinong, and the Zhongsun family will all pay attention to how this case was investigated and who investigated it. Oh, maybe now There is an additional force like Tongxinwei." He Lingchuan said slowly, "Now even if I want to let go, I can't avoid it."

"Then, what should we do?" Jing Jing felt bad after hearing this. What kind of behemoths are the masters facing? The father and son of the Chiyan Kingdom behind him didn't know whether they were reliable or not, but they had no foundation in the Bejia Kingdom.

This, this, this, isn't this an egg hitting a rock?

But why is the master so calm?

"If the Lord of Chiyan gives in and throws the case back to Lingxu City, we will be in danger." He Lingchuan smiled, he had thought about these issues before killing Zhongsun Mou, "They will ignore the case, it is very likely Don’t care about me and ignore how Lingxu City deals with me.”

"On the contrary, it is good for me that Chi Yanguo is so determined. In fact, I have repeatedly tested Fu Shanyue several times in my replies. As long as he shows a trace of hesitation, I will leave without hesitation." He said every word. , "Actually, the way to protect yourself is very simple, that is to expose this case to the sun. The more open the better, the more transparent the better!"

In the game between these parties, only openness, fairness, and transparency can prevent others from finding reasons to express their anger.

Jing Jing couldn't help but mutter: "If I had known this, I wouldn't have helped Fu Shan Yue investigate the case."

"How do you know how deep the water is without stepping in?" He Lingchuan hates people who make hindsight. "Besides, I'm probably already in the warehouse."

"What?" Jing Jing didn't understand, "What warehouse?"

He Lingchuan refused to say anything and said, "Let's go and build a bronze guard."

He jumped out of this muddy water on his own without any regrets.

He took out the golden armor and bronze guard formula given by Li Qingge.

Compared with the Golden Armor and Bronze Guard formula that he exchanged for military service, Li Qingge's formula uses more streamlined materials and the performance of the finished product has also been improved. After all, more than a hundred years have passed, and there should be improvements in craftsmanship and procedures.

The most important thing is that the new formula also thoughtfully adds a lot of precautions when refining, which is very suitable for him, a dabbler in casting.

Of course, now this formula can be handed over to the caster of Chiyan Palace to execute, and he can just watch by himself.

…

Cen Mansion.

"What, everyone ran away?" Cen Boqing was so angry that he slapped the table after receiving the report from the guard.

With a click, the dining table cracked in half, and the food and drinks fell all over the floor.

He couldn't have eaten it anyway. But when he heard the news that the private house Wu Kai rented was empty, he was still furious.

It turned out that Wu Kai had already been prepared to escape. Not only did he escape by himself, he also took his family with him.

In the afternoon, Lu Dutong led troops to surround Cen's mansion. Logically speaking, Wu Kai should be the one to coordinate the chariots and horses. As a result, Wu Kai took orders from him and disappeared!

In such a big Cen mansion, everyone searched the house inside and out, and found that the person was missing!

How can you lose such a big living person? No matter how reluctant Cen Boqing was, he could only think that Wu Kai had abandoned his master and fled.

This is really intolerable.

Wu Kai's family of three fled, and Cen Boqing was given a warning:

This is the witness in the case of killing the demon and taking the pearl, the breakthrough point for his opponent, and the biggest hidden danger around him!

Why hasn't he dealt with it?

Confused!

Although Wu Kai is on the run, this is Fushanyue territory. Who guarantees that he can escape from Chiyan Country smoothly and will never be caught?

Once Wu Kai is arrested, then...

Cen Boqing turned around and walked out, walking through the garden and corridor until he reached Cheng Yu's residence.

There is a guard still guarding here.

He went in and took a look, frowning:

Cheng Yu's eyes were still closed and he was fast asleep, but his face looked much better than the day he was injured.

"He didn't wake up halfway?"

The guard pointed to the transparent bottle on the table and said, "No. Mr. Cheng told me not to remove the cork unless the lantern in the bottle goes out."

There is still snow falling in the bottle, but the momentum has diminished, and only sporadic snowflakes fall occasionally. Occasionally a figure flashed past the cabin.

How many days has it been? Cen Boqing said angrily: "Unplug it!"

"Ah, are you going to pull it out now?"

The guard was about to touch the bottle, but Cen Boqing regretted it: "Wait, wait!"

"grown ups?"

"Let's wait until tonight." What Cen Boqing was thinking about was that Cheng Yu had a bad temper. If he woke him up rashly and his recuperation would be interrupted, would he still be willing to help him?

Wu Kai worked carefully and carefully, and his escape was planned in advance. Fu Shanyue may not be able to catch him so soon.

Seeing that the snow bottle is almost out of snow, should Cheng Yu wake up?

Tomorrow, try again tomorrow. Cen Boqing sighed, put his hands behind his hands and walked out.

…

In the evening, He Lingchuan rushed back to the inn happily.

The inn has been booked by the prince, and there is no one else there except the guards and slaves. Fu Shanyue was sitting on a deck chair in the yard enjoying the cool air. He Lingchuan looked at him and asked, "What's wrong?"

"We have sent out several groups, searched the whole city twice, and went out to chase Wu Kai's daughter-in-law and grandson. We still haven't caught Wu Kai's daughter-in-law and grandson." Fu Shanyue put his hands behind his neck, "This guy is really cunning. Well, yours How is the golden armored guard?"

"As expected of a palace forger, he is much better than me in upgrading it myself." He made this golden-armored bronze man while he was in the Hanhe Army. The conditions were not good at that time, and all kinds of generals even borrowed Monkey Lingguang's stove. Medicine stove. Unexpectedly, he didn't even have to do anything now. Expert craftsmen from the Chiyan Kingdom came to Bai Shaqian to upgrade it for him.

Even if you have money, you may not be able to hire someone, so power is really a good thing.

The process of upgrading the Golden Armored Guard is not difficult in itself, but it is also a home-style braised tofu, and it is difficult for ordinary people to make it as good as the one produced by a hotel chef.

Is there any specialization in the art industry?

The height of the released golden-armored guard has not changed, but his entire body is covered with purple-gold copper armor, which is lined with a layer of soft fish-scale armor for double protection and double safety. He Lingchuan tried various weapons. Ordinary swords and guns could not even leave a mark on the armor. The fire magic power could only leave a black mark. If the Fusheng knife's army-breaking attribute was not activated, it would take six swords to cut through the outer layer of bronze armor. .

Moreover, various joints of the Bronze Guard, such as knees, elbows, and ankles, have been optimized to be more in line with the movement patterns of the human body, making He Lingchuan's movements more flexible.

The caster complained while working. He didn't know who made the junior bronze man so ugly, bad and clumsy, which caused the workload of transforming him to at least triple.

He Lingchuan was rubbing his nose and saying nothing.

As expected of a palace forger, he not only helped him repair many old wounds on the bronze figure that were difficult to heal on its own, and re-adjusted it, but also engraved a lot of light body and wind spirit formations on the bronze figure to make it move faster and faster. Attacks are more precise and control feels better.

Inappropriately speaking, if the offensive and defensive capabilities of He Lingchuan's self-made Golden Armored Bronze Man are three, the upgraded Golden Armored Guards' ability is seven.

He Lingchuan played with it for half an afternoon, and then sadly discovered its biggest weakness:

It consumes too much energy.

In the past, when it was still a bronze man in golden armor, a small piece of light green black crystal could last it two hours. If it encountered a fast-paced and fierce battle, it would last at least half an hour.

After upgrading to the Bronze Guard, the appearance will be majestic, and the offense and defense will increase a lot, but it will cost money to move. A piece of dark green black crystal the size of an egg is not enough to support its movement for an hour.

If it is a fierce battle, haha, a quarter of an hour is the most.

most.

It depends on the rhythm of the battle. If you block something big for the master for a few times, it may run out of power. No, it will run out of energy.

He Lingchuan touched his money bag, which was not plump enough, and felt so heartbroken that he couldn't breathe.

This was just a Bronze Guard. He had accidentally inquired about the cost of upgrading it to a golden-armored general.

Not counting the cost of craftsmanship, but just the cost of materials, the price is about fifteen times that of upgrading the bronze guard!
