Barrier of Light

"Brother Nanfeng."

Yao Jin sat in a wheelchair, raised his head, and said with a bright smile: "This is our first meeting, please take care of me..."

"Don't call me that."

Gu Nanfeng frowned and said, "Are we familiar with you?"

As soon as these words came out, many of the Holy Inquisitors' faces became ugly.

But Yao Jin's expression did not waver, and he was still smiling: "That's right, Master Nanfeng. Yao should have made it very clear just now... If the Gu family mission insists on blocking it, it is deliberately shielding the criminals. .”

The most difficult person in the world is not a ruthless person who writes all his emotions and sorrows on his face and gets angry easily.

But Yao Jin is like this.

Even after being slapped, he still smiled.

"Let them in."

Gu Nanfeng turned around and gave orders to the night watchmen outside the cordon, so the Gu family delegation stopped blocking...

Yao Jin led a group of Holy Judges and slowly crossed the cordon.

Yao Jin pushed his wheelchair to Gu Nanfeng and introduced him calmly: "Master Nanfeng, you may not have heard of my name. My surname is Yao..."

"Yao Jin."

Gu Nanfeng glanced at the man in the wheelchair and said calmly: "I know your name."

"Oh?" Yao Jin pretended to be flattered.

"The person in charge of the secret prison in the City of Light, although you are hiding in the dark, there are traces that can be traced."

Gu Nanfeng said: "Guangming City has cultivated many shadows that cannot be seen... You are the most outstanding person besides 'Su Ye'."

"Lord Nanfeng is so complimentary."

Yao Jin smiled and said: "My lord seems to be very interested in the 'secret prison'. It is not easy to find out my identity on your own initiative."

The secrets in Guangming City are never spread to the outside world.

When Gu Nanfeng said this, he was equivalent to telling Yao Jin that the Gu family also had eyes and ears in Xizhou.

But this is normal.

Now that the five continents are linked by the [Deep Sea], no one can completely avoid infiltration.

Gu Nanfeng knew what Yao Jin wanted to say, and he wanted to use the topic of the secret prison to attract Meng Xizhou.

He said lukewarmly: "So the 'repeat criminal' you want to investigate this time is also a person imprisoned in the secret prison?"

"Not yet."

Yao Jin smiled softly and said: "But after we capture him this time and bring him back, he will be imprisoned in a secret prison. This person assassinated a core member of the temple, which is extremely bad and unforgivable. According to the law of light, after being imprisoned in the secret prison, he will also There are many punishments waiting for him..."

At this moment, Luo Yu spoke.

"Master Yao, are you sure that the 'criminal' you want to arrest is among the Gu family mission?"

Fatty Luo sneered: "Don't tell us in the end, it was just a misunderstanding. The mission just arrived in Hong Kong, and you came here with the Holy Judge. Doesn't this mean you don't take the Gu family's face seriously?"

"..."

Yao Jin narrowed his eyes and looked at this guy who was not easy to mess with.

He didn't want to make things worse, but now that Luo Yu had provoked a dispute, he couldn't tolerate him not responding.

"I said before, the Holy Inquisitor never investigates."

Yao Jin said calmly: "If it is wrong, I will personally apologize to Young Master Gu. But what if it is wrong?"

"Since the Gu family mission parked, it has been heavily guarded. No outsider has ever entered to speak against the criminals."

Luo Yu said: "You can enter here with the word "temple", which is considered a generous heart of the young master. Where is the evidence to arrest the murderer?"

"Let's take a look...this thing."

After Yao Jin heard this, he smiled softly. He raised his hand and took out a roll of thick woven bamboo slips.

"There is a [Cloud Mirror] in the upper city, and the temple also has a similar method called [Guangming Mirror]."

Gu Nanfeng glanced at it and said calmly: "[Guangmingjian] can track specific auras. It seems that Lord Yao... has marked the criminals in advance?"

Yao Jin let go of his hand.

This bamboo slip is suspended in the air.

"good."

He smiled and said: "Young Master Gu is indeed as rumored as to be well aware of all the trivial matters in Guangming City. This news about the [Guangming Mirror] must have been told to you by the goddess, right?"

"..."

Gu Nanfeng's eyes became much colder.

The reason why he knew Yao Jin was because Meng Xizhou had disappeared for many years. He sent people to investigate several times, but they repeatedly encountered obstacles and found no news.

The so-called service to the throne is simply a lie!

There was only one possibility he could think of... Meng Xizhou was imprisoned in a secret prison by the Temple of Light!

"Okay, let's talk about this case."

Yao Jin's fingertips gently touched the bamboo slips, and a sweet and crisp sound was emitted, like the sound of a mountain spring. He said slowly and unhurriedly: "Last night, I hunted down a murderer for thousands of miles, relying solely on the [Guangming Jian] to identify the breath. This breath came all the way from Guangming." They fled south of the city until they fled into Ghent and into the Gu family mission, and then they gradually stopped."

Luo Yu said coldly: "So you suspect that the mission is hiding someone?"

"Sorry, I never said that..."

Yao Jin smiled and said: "I'm just worried that this person will be detrimental to the mission. Mr. Luo, you don't want the Gu family to be attacked by criminals, right?"

Luo Yu was speechless for a moment.

He could only stare at the guy in the wheelchair.

A few seconds later, Gu Nanfeng broke the silence: "So, where is the murderer?"

After saying this extremely simple sentence.

The smile on Yao Jin's face slowly disappeared.

He looked at the [Guangming Jian] in front of him in disbelief... Just now, this bamboo slip clearly had guidance, but at this moment, the guidance thought coming from the [Guangming Jian] suddenly disappeared!

The spiritual glow on the bamboo slips no longer shines brightly, but dims!

Generally, there are only two possibilities when this happens.

Either that or the Marker dies.

Or, the mark was erased.

"Huh? Why doesn't this [Guangming Jian] light up?"

Luo Yu, who was speechless at first, now came up and circled around the wheelchair, exclaiming: "There was a light spot before, why did it suddenly disappear? Master Yao, this is the legendary light spot." Is there any temple technique comparable to the power of [Yunjing]?"

"???"

There are veins on Yao Jin's forehead.

How could something so outrageous happen at this juncture!

He raised his hand to recall the bamboo slip in front of him, and tapped it twice lightly with his fingers as a test.

Two crisp sounds.

The bamboo slips were still dead silent, and the light spot did not appear.

"Maybe... there was some malfunction."

Yao Jin looked very ugly.

He had calculated the Gu family's reactions, but he didn't expect such a weird thing to happen... [Guangmingjian] suddenly stopped responding!

"Master Yao, what were you talking about just now?"

Luo Yu's expression changed. He suppressed all his smiles and asked extremely seriously: "You said that the [Guangming Jian] in this temple has malfunctioned... Can this kind of gas-finding device used for arresting criminals and investigating crimes also malfunction? Is that so? What malfunctioned today was something that malfunctioned a long time ago. You can’t have it malfunction just as you set foot on Gu’s ship, right?”

Yao Jin was immediately speechless.

Luo Yu said quietly: "Or are you just entertaining the Gu family envoy?"

"That was never the intention."

Yao Jin took a deep breath and said: "Young Master Gu, my people have boarded the ship. I hope you can cooperate today and let me investigate carefully... The murderer must be living in the ship."

Luo Yu said angrily: "What do you mean, do you really think the Gu family hides people?"

"..."

Yao Jin also had anger in his chest, but he had no way to vent it.

Although he was the host, the matter of being ordered to arrest someone had already crossed the line when it got to this point.

At this point, he must take action.

"I can let you check."

Gu Nanfeng spoke softly, "What if we can't find out?"

"As I said before, I will personally apologize to you!"

Yao Jin raised his head, but was interrupted mid-sentence.

"Who do you think you are?"

Gu Nanfeng looked at the young man in front of him expressionlessly. Yao Jin was investigating Dongzhou, and he was also investigating Yao Jin.

Because I have read too many files.

So Gu Nanfeng knew what kind of hypocrisy was hidden under the smiling face of the man in front of him.

Take charge of the secret prison and imprison Meng Xizhou!

Just because of this... this person cannot be spared lightly!

Every word Gu Nanfeng said was very light, but every word was heart-breaking: "In terms of seniority in the temple, is there a place for you? Su Ye is a holy son after all, but what are you? At best, you are just a guard prison. My domestic dog, if you bite me, is the way to deal with it is to make me bite you back?"

Yao Jin's already pale expression became even paler.

He couldn't refute this statement.

Because Gu Nanfeng... was right.

"From beginning to end, you didn't let me take another look."

"I let you step here for the sake of the temple."

"Today I allow you to carefully inspect this huge ship. If the criminal is found, even if I, Gu, are accused of causing trouble in Xizhou... there will be no problem."

"But if we can't find out, I want the great elder of the temple to apologize to me personally."

Gu Nanfeng looked at Yao Jin and said word by word: "When a dog makes a mistake, of course the owner will be punished. Yao Jin, am I clear enough?"

These remarks came to fruition.

The entire giant ship fell silent. Those Gu family night watchmen had never seen the young master so angry.

The Holy Judges were even more silent.

Although they believed in light, Gu Nanfeng's power suppressed the entire giant ship. They knew very well that this was a search without evidence.

If you act rashly, it may cause trouble for the temple.

"...Want to take a gamble?"

Yao Jin clutched the [Guangming Jian] tightly, with such a voice echoing in his heart.

in repeated deep breaths.

Yao Jin's chaotic mind gradually became calmer.

at this moment.

He chose to trust his own judgment.

The assassin last night was shot by the [Red Phoenix Crossbow] and fled all night. He must be extremely weak at this moment!

Even if [Guangmingjian] malfunctions and the mark disappears, starting from this point, the "target" can still be found!

Even if the Gu family is ruthless and chooses to deal with the person marked by the [Guangming Jian]... then if he rushes in time and starts an investigation at this moment, he will definitely be able to find traces of the body!

"Sorry, today's Gu family mission... I have to check!"

Yao Jin's eyes became cold, and his voice gradually changed from trembling to calm: "Yao is willing to take responsibility for his actions, please let Master Gu go!"
