I have an eternal eye

"A few taels of silver, what are you trying to do with your life?"

In the elegant pavilion of the tavern, Wang Captou had drank a lot.

Xu Shi was drunk and timid. He held the wine glass, shook his head, and spoke more and more casually.

"Some people say that when you work in a government office, you have to take a dose of heart-cleansing soup to wash away your conscience. You also have to burn a piece of paper to apologize to heaven and bid farewell to the laws of heaven, so that you can keep your job secure."

"It sounds ugly, but it makes sense."

"Look at your father, the name of the Soul Catcher is resounding throughout the martial arts world. He is treated like a donkey by the nobles. He works hard and has gained nothing except his reputation."

"What's the use of having a good reputation? If you leave, let's see how many people are selling your father's face?"

"The water in this capital is deep. If you want to stand out, just catch the thieves. As for those royal relatives and noble lords..."

"Don't mess with any of them!"

Opposite him sat a young man.

He wears a black military robe, a black headdress, an upright figure, a fair face, and strong features. He has a horizontal sword on his waist and a bronze medal with the words "Six Gates" engraved on it.

The young man was holding the wine glass, a little absent-minded.

"Biaozi!"

"Zhang Biao!"

When Wang Captou saw this, he became angry and said, "You don't listen to what I said. Let's stop this matter. Don't worry about it!"

Zhang Biao frowned, "He's just a hooligan..."

"That's right, it's just a dirty thing!"

Wang Captou interrupted him and sneered: "But the local ruffian has something to do with the Li family."

"Concubine Li is the most favored by saints. If not for the obstruction of hundreds of officials, she would have almost become the queen!"

"The Li family is running rampant in the capital. Even Situ Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment doesn't want to mess with it. Dali Temple is pretending to be deaf and dumb. Otherwise, why would they send this errand to Liumen?"

"Your father is your only son, and I don't want to see my old man die. The chief has said that if you get injured while practicing, you will be allowed to take a month's paid leave!"

Zhang Biao gritted his teeth and finally sighed helplessly.

He is not a stubborn person.

He was reborn in the Liang Dynasty and became the son of the divine catcher of Yujing City. He practiced martial arts since he was a child. After his father passed away, he successfully entered the six gates and repeatedly solved strange cases. How could he not understand the world?

But there are some things that can make you pretend to be deaf and dumb, and some things make people angry and tossing and turning.

I felt angry and became more and more irritable as I drank more wine.

Wang Captou sighed, stood up, threw down a few coins, and patted his shoulder again, "Let's go back and take a nap. If you see more in the future, you'll get used to it."

"Uncle Wang, don't worry." Zhang Biao nodded.

Although this king's words were unpleasant, he was his father's best friend and they were all thinking about him.

Others, I'm afraid, will pretend to be deaf and dumb and watch him jump into the fire pit...

…………

"You two catchers, walk slowly."

Under the attentive greetings of the waiter, the two of them left the restaurant unsteadily.

As soon as I walked out the door, I saw the hustle and bustle.

There are cars and horses on the street, people are buzzing, wine flags are everywhere on the street, teahouses and restaurants are lined up, and the aroma of various meats is wafting in the wind.

It's late autumn now, the sky is high and the air is crisp, and the exquisite and simple pavilions in the distance can't be seen at a glance.

This is Yujing Nancheng, Xingyefang.

Three hundred years ago, Emperor Wu of Liang Dynasty, Zhao Yan, fought in the south and north, unified the nine states, and built this jade city, known as "the white jade city in the sky, one hundred and eight cities".

One hundred and eight cities is an exaggeration, but one hundred and eight squares have actually been built. In the early days of the dynasty, it seemed empty, but now it has a population of one million.

All industries are prosperous, dragons and snakes are mixed.

It is both a place of goodness and a city of right and wrong.

Seeing that Zhang Biao was in a bad mood, Wang Captou smiled again and said, "Don't think about this. The most important thing right now is to get you a wife."

"You're already twenty and you haven't married yet. In today's prosperous age, the etiquette and laws are loose. If you want to put Emperor Wu and Emperor Wen aside, the Jingzhao Mansion will drag you away and marry you an old widow!"

"Your aunt has found a girl from a family. Although the family is in decline, she is also a scholar of poetry and literature. She can save some money and give birth to a fat boy. In the future, she will gain fame and be better than becoming a martial artist..."

"Ah, what is this!"

Before he finished speaking, he saw a sudden commotion on the street.

The two of them lost their drunkenness and their eyes became sharp.

Liumen belongs to the Criminal Department and specializes in dealing with Jianghu people. They deal with all tough bandits in the green forest, and no one is weak.

If trouble is caused in the capital, if it has something to do with people in the Jianghu, if they ignore it, it will be a crime of dereliction of duty.

However, what they saw surprised them.

On both sides of the streets in Yujing City, there are open channels and underground channels for drainage, connecting four canals through the city.

At present, countless rats were swarming in the drainage canal. Each one had shiny fur and oily water. They gathered into a tide and scurried around, causing the people to shout and scream in shock.

"Tsk tsk...that's really strange."

Upon seeing this, Wang Captou breathed a sigh of relief, shook his head and said: "The rats were roaming the streets during the day. If any of the idle officials mentioned it, Fang Zheng and the Wu Hous would be in bad luck..."

Before he finished speaking, the sky turned dark.

Wang Captou looked up and his eyes suddenly became dull.

I saw the autumn sky in the sky gradually being invaded by a round of shadows, and the center soon became dark, with only a faint golden wheel surrounding it.

The darkness in the sky was actually covered with a layer of blood.

The entire Jade Capital City seemed to be soaked in blood.

Countless people looked up and looked at all this in horror, even forgetting about the rats scurrying around the streets.

Wang Captou murmured: "The dark sun is rising in the sky, and the city is filled with blood. It's an ominous sign. I'm afraid the court will be in chaos..."

Zhang Biao, who was on the side, didn't pay attention to what he said at all. His eyes were full of surprise at this moment, and his heart was pounding.

At the moment when this strange celestial phenomenon appeared, he felt his eyebrows swelled, and a silver eyeball appeared in his mind.

Distant memories come to mind.

He knows this thing!

When he was electrocuted in his previous life, he was playing a game, and this thing was the protagonist's skill: the eye of spiritual vision.

The function is very simple, that is, you can view objects and obtain the information contained in them.

The higher the level, the more information you get.

Of course, if the object level is higher than the host, it will get very little information, and may even suffer backlash.

Why does this thing also follow the soul?

Zhang Biao didn't understand, but he began to try secretly.

He first stared at the rats running across the street and concentrated. The silver eyeballs in his mind shone slightly, and a wave of information suddenly came to him:

Rat (everything)

1: Little things in the gutter. These rodents have spread all over the world with their powerful reproductive capabilities.

2: This animal is very fragile, but under certain circumstances, it can also cause deadly plagues.

3: They seem frightened.

Zhang Biao was speechless, but not surprised.

The level of the rat is too low, and most of the information it gets is useless.

In memory, the more special the item, the more information can be obtained.

But at the same time, he also noticed an information point.

All over the world!

After more than ten years of soul travel, he has never left Yujing City, but he is also familiar with the customs and terrain of various places. It is somewhat similar to the Central Plains in his previous life, but he has heard that there are also large-scale dynasties on other continents.

Is it possible that there are other worlds?

Thinking of this, Zhang Biao focused his thoughts again and looked at the huge black sun ring in the sky.

But in just a moment, his eyes were red, his forehead was swollen, his head seemed to be on fire, and he quickly lowered his head in fear.

Zhang Biao endured the severe pain and rubbed his eyes, feeling a little confused.

Isn't it just a solar eclipse?

Why can't I view it?

clang! clang! clang!

Just then, the sound of a distant bell interrupted his thoughts.

On the clock tower of Xingye Square Gate, two Wu Hous were ringing desperately. In a blink of an eye, the bells of all the buildings rang, connecting together and resounding throughout the city.

Wang Captou's expression changed, "It's the Jingjie Bell!"

"Let's go quickly! If the gate is closed and we are trapped here, your aunt will probably die of panic."

"Also, the chief catcher has asked you to take a vacation. Please stay at home these few days and don't run around, in case something happens and you can't find anyone!"

"Uncle Wang, don't worry, I know."

The two of them moved very quickly and left the square gate while talking.

When we came to the street, we saw chaos.

The vendors along the street packed up their goods in a panic, and fruits, vegetables, and tattered baskets fell all over the floor...

Hu merchants from the Western Regions drove the camels with all their strength, even drew their swords, and angrily scolded the beggars who took advantage of the chaos...

The Jinwu Guards marched in formation with guns in hand, full of murderous intent...

The people were running fast and crying one after another...

Zhang Biao frowned slightly, but was not surprised.

This Daliang Dynasty is a bit like Chang'an in the previous life, but there are few curfews on weekdays, and each city can trade freely, making it very prosperous.

But the state has national laws, and the city also has city regulations.

If something big happens, the "Quiet Street Bell" will ring.

This is a signal to implement martial law. When the bells end, the cities and towns will be closed.

Those who are still wandering around at that time, whether they are common people, merchants, or small officials in the capital, as long as they don't have the pass cards, will be arrested and thrown into prison, and they will either die or lose their skin.

Since the turmoil in the capital a hundred years ago, this rule has been handed down, and no one dares to violate it.

What Zhang Biao was a little confused about was that it was just an abnormal celestial phenomenon, and what he had to guard against were rumors, so why was there so much fanfare?

When Wang Captou next to him saw this, his brows became even more worried, "Biaozi, I'm leaving first. It's no good if there is no backbone in the family with this chaos."

"Uncle Wang, be careful."

The two did not live in the same house, so they parted ways.

Seeing Wang Captou's figure disappearing into the crowd, Zhang Biao also looked around, turned around and rushed into a dark alley.

Anzhenfang, where he was, was far away, and the streets were bustling. If he wanted to get back in time, he would have to take a shortcut.

The alleys are relatively narrow.

It rained heavily this summer and the city was flooded. Many century-old walls collapsed. They are now covered with racks and are being repaired because the roads are impassable and there are relatively few people.

Zhang Biao accelerated, stepped on the wall and used his strength to jump onto the wooden frame, then pressed his body and accelerated, galloping and jumping like a civet cat.

There is no such thing as true energy in this world. Qinggong is just a variety of techniques for climbing over walls and jumping to relieve force.

He combined the martial arts passed down from his family with the parkour from his previous life, and combined with the Soul Hook Lock, his body skills are so flexible that he ranks among the best in the entire six gates.

In less than a stick of incense, the gate of Anzhenfang was in sight, and the patrolling Marquis Wu was beating the gong. After seeing him, he quickly said hello, "Hey, Zhang Captou, come in quickly, Mo Too late!"

"Xiao Qi, if you need anything, please say hello."

"Thank you Zhang Captou."

After some pleasantries, Zhang Biao strode into the square gate...

…

In the thirteenth year of Yuanchen in Daliang, it became dark and the city was in chaos.

Celestial phenomena such as solar eclipses have been recorded since ancient times. There are folk legends that the heavenly dog ​​eats the sun, and there are also prophecies that it is a sign of great misfortune for the emperor to lose his virtue.

And soon, people discovered that this was not a solar eclipse at all...
