But Qiao Mu was indeed a little absent-minded.
Because he will soon be in jail, it is not impossible to die for this.
He said what happened in the teahouse in front of the official surnamed Yan. It is estimated that as soon as the matter spreads, he, a newly appointed public servant, will be imprisoned for his speech.
He didn't take this body's current status as a detective too seriously.
After all, his goal is to kill the emperor. If nothing else happens, this status will not last for a month.
I came to this city just to seek a high-quality death before killing the emperor.
Heyang Fucheng is the largest city in this area, so Qiao Mu thought that there were probably members of the Wuji Society in this city. He could try to get on the line to get more clues about the emperor's travels, and then he would try to sneak into it. Make a lot of money and die.
At this moment, his mind suddenly moved, and the vague intuition that led him to Fucheng emerged again.
This intuition was not very reliable and had always been inconsistent. Especially after he entered Heyang Fucheng, it became even more unclear.
At first, he thought that after arriving in Fucheng, he might be able to trigger some main mission.
Later, when he put it all together, he discovered that this mysterious intuition started from practicing Wu Jihui's "Martial Holy Spirit Rhinoceros Technique".
So obviously, the location of this intuition should be related to the Wu Jihui.
The presence of Wu Jihui means fatal danger and information related to the plan to assassinate the emperor... Qiao Mu is a little tempted.
He raised his eyes to the north, suspicion flashed in his heart, he pulled the money catcher beside him and asked:
"Captain Qian, are there any famous people or places of interest in the north of this city?"
"We are in a meeting..." Qian Captou was a little unhappy.
Qiao Mu casually took out some broken silver and handed it over.
"We are all colleagues, why should we be like this?" Mr. Qian smiled brightly and lowered his voice:
"There used to be a big martial arts clan in the north of the city, also named Qiao. The Qiao family was in the north of the city. The Qiao family used to be quite famous, but it disappeared half a year ago. Now, a Taoist temple named Xuantian Temple was built on that land. ”
"By the way, Xuantian Temple is the sect's headquarters for strangers. Even though you are the leader of the public sect, you must remember... there are some places that are not suitable to go."
Chapter 67 Qiao Mu in jail (4k)
The Qiao family in Heyang was destroyed half a year ago.
The Xianmen Xuantian Sect settled in and established the sect's headquarters in Heyang Fucheng. In fact, it only happened after the Qiao family in Heyang was destroyed.
Half a year is enough for the residents of Heyang City to get to know these strangers, or immortal cultivators.
Even a low-level official like Qian Baotou has a certain understanding of the Xuantian Sect in Heyang City.
"Why can't you go to Xuantian Sect?" Qiao Mu asked in a low voice:
"We are public arresters, and we represent the laws of Great Yan. From what you say, don't you mean that if the strangers of Xuantian Sect violate the laws of Great Yan, we can't arrest them?"
As soon as he said this, Qian Captou looked at Qiao Mu rather strangely.
"Captain Qiao, you are quite old, right? Why do you still say such...innocent words?"
Qian Captou originally wanted to say naive, but after weighing the broken silver in his hand, he changed it to naive.
Qian Captou said matter-of-factly: "The so-called strangers are immortals, immortals and immortals who are beyond the reach of the world. The laws of Dayan govern the people of Dayan, how can they govern the immortals of Xuantian Sect?"
Qiao Mu's heart suddenly pounded after hearing this: "Are you saying that even if we, the public arresters, break into the Immortal Gate without permission, it is possible that we will be killed?"
"Captain Qiao, don't pretend to be confused because you understand. There are some facts that we don't have to tell." Captor Qian said with a slight smile.
"This money is quite easy to talk to the head catcher. It can save me a lot of time. I will wait until this discussion is over and ask him a few more questions." Qiao Mu thought to himself.
Capt. Qian's name is Qian Qian. He is actually in his thirties, younger than Qiao Mu now.
It's just that his hairline is slightly higher and he looks older than the 44-year-old Qiao Mu, but he is quite kind.
Qiao Mu thought that he would not be able to survive as a leader for long, and because he wanted to die, getting close to him might be affected, so he had no intention of getting on well with his colleagues.
It doesn't matter if they don't have a relationship, there will be broken silver to clear the way, and this money to catch the head is actually very detailed.
There is currently no shortage of silver trees.
Previously, the bandits ransacked the city lord's palace in Yancheng and took away a batch of antiques, antiques, jewelry and the like from the secret room.
Although these stolen bandits have the means to take action, it always takes a certain amount of time.
After learning that Qiao Mu would leave for Heyang Fucheng in the near future, Wang Songhe took the initiative and gave Qiao Mu some gold and silver in cash, while leaving the antiques for the bandits to slowly take action.
The money in Qiao Mu's hand is not too much, but for now he basically doesn't have to worry about food and drink.
"Captain Qian, please tell me more about Xuantian Sect."
"Captain Qiao, that's not appropriate. The boss is still up there talking about the case of the impermanent monster."
Qiao Mu thought for a while and took out some broken silver.
"Oh, actually, it's not too late for Chief Qiao to ask me again after this discussion." Qian Qian calmly accepted the broken silver and looked at Qiao Mu with a warmer look.
I heard that Capt. Qiao was a foreigner, so he suddenly became the Capt. It was said that he had a relationship with someone above him.
Now it seems that the rumors are indeed true. He is so generous when asking for some information. It is worth making friends...
The head catcher can only be regarded as a minor official, not even a ninth-grade official, and his salary is not high.
As a captain, Qian Qian was actually a ninth-rank warrior who had cultivated internal strength when he was in his prime. However, as he got older, his qi and blood declined. Although he had internal strength, he was no longer as good as a ninth-rank warrior in his prime, so he could only become a minor official.
The salary of a captain is not high, so it is obvious that this captain Qiao is either rich or noble...
Since this captain Qiao seems to have a lot of family wealth, then...
Qian Qian smiled slightly and said mysteriously:
"Captain Qiao, you have found the right person. If it were someone else, they would not understand these inside information like me..."
"Any more inside information? Tell me in detail." Qiao Mu was moved.
"Half a year ago, the Qiao family in Heyang was wiped out overnight. It is said that it was the Martial Saint who did it himself... The Qiao family has since become a very dangerous house, and no one dares to enter. Even the surrounding land prices have plummeted, falling by 30% to 40%."
"The north of the city is the prosperous area of Heyang Prefecture. The land price has fallen by 30% to 40%. How terrible..." At this point, Qian Qian smiled slightly, showing a confident expression:
"But others are afraid of my greed!"
"I, Qian Qian, have third-rate strength, but first-rate vision. When the land price fell to the bottom, I bought a house near the Qiao family compound to settle down."
"As a result, guess what, the immortals of Xuantian Sect came! They designated the Qiao family compound and the surrounding areas as the immortal gate's residence, and the surrounding land prices have also risen. Now it has risen two or three times more than before."
Speaking of this, Qian Qian was quite proud.
In fact, what he said was still a bit of self-flattering.
He is not afraid of martial saints or haunted houses, just because he is poor.
In recent years, the court has imposed heavy taxes, and he is already in his thirties.
The peak of physical fitness for ordinary people and ordinary warriors is in their twenties and thirties. Once they are older, their qi and blood will decline every year.
When Qian Qian was young, he dared to fight and fought hard. He also practiced internal strength with a low-grade external hard skill. But as he got older, his qi and blood declined year by year, and it was difficult for this old bone to compete with other young constables in the public office, so he gritted his teeth and bought a house in the north of the city.
"The ancients said that those who are close to vermilion will be red, and those who are close to ink will be black. Our old Qian family is close to the immortals this time. Not to mention that they can ascend to heaven, but also let our daughter smell some immortal air and be influenced by it."
Qian Qian said with a laugh.
But Qiao Mu frowned secretly: "After saying so much, what about the inside story you mentioned?"
Qian Qian said mysteriously: "As for the inside story, I know there is an empty house near the Xuantian Sect's residence in the north of the city. If Captain Qiao needs it, I can help to make a connection..."
This person mistakenly thought I wanted to buy the house... Qiao Mu was a little amused.
Just as he was about to talk about something else, the chief captain Chen above had finished talking about the case and walked towards Qiao Mu.
Qian Qian was silent immediately.
Qiao Mu was very calm. He had killed the sixth-rank city lord, so why was he afraid of a chief captain of the prefectural city?
"Captain Qiao seems to have some opinions on this case. The discussion was quite heated just now. Why don't you tell me what you think?" Chief Captain Chen raised his chin slightly and squinted his phoenix eyes to look down at Qiao Mu.
She was about thirty years old, quite mature and charming. She was obviously staring and looking down, but there was a hint of coquettishness, which made Captain Qian next to her exclaim in his heart, wondering if he could also stare at me.
"Actually, I don't have any special opinion." Qiao Mu said calmly.
He didn't listen at all, so naturally he didn't have any opinion.
Chief Constable Chen frowned slightly, looked down at Qiao Mu, and said with some undisguised contempt:
"Shut up if you don't have any opinion."
"I'm curious about who sent you to the Six Gates... But once you enter this door, you have to listen to me."
Chen Yingxue, as a woman, climbed to the position of Chief Constable of the prefectural city without any external help. Naturally, she hated Qiao Mu, a middle-aged person with connections who was over 40 years old.
Qiao Mu didn't have any emotional fluctuations after hearing this.
After all, he didn't come to compete with these constables for their jobs.
So he said seriously:
"Woman, don't be curious about me. Curiosity is often the beginning of your fall."
"Uncle has been killing fish in the vegetable market for ten years. My heart has long been as cold as the fish I kill. Don't get close to me."
Chief Constable Chen:?
She frowned inexplicably at Qiao Mu, startled by his sudden strange words, and subconsciously walked away.
In fact, this is the effect Qiao Mu wanted.
As a man who has embarked on the path of seeking death, after experiencing the ups and downs of Yancheng, Qiao Mu has learned one thing:
Women will only affect the speed of his death.
The same is true for men.
When there is no one around him, he has no scruples and no weaknesses. He is the strongest.
"Captain Qiao, you..." Qian Qian next to him dared to speak at this time:
"The chief constable has a strong character. Although she won't give you a hard time, she is still your boss after all."
"Strong character? Then stay away from me." Qiao Mu said seriously:
"I have always hated evil and regarded life and death as a matter of course. Such a majestic image falls into the eyes of people with a strong character. It is like a firefly in the dark night, so bright... I am afraid that she will really fall."
At this point, Qiao Mu was satisfied to see the back of the chief constable who had walked away tremble slightly.
Comfortable.
And at this time,
A huge white paper crane flew over the horizon, and a young woman with a Taoist bun, who looked to be only about twenty years old, was riding on the crane.
The paper crane quickly shrank when it hit the ground, turning into the size of an ordinary paper crane. The female cultivator reached out and took it into her arms.
"The Xuantian Sect's Mingyue Immortal has arrived."
"People can fly on folded paper cranes. It's really a fairy trick."
The policemen and policemen nearby all praised him.
"Why are people from Xuantian Sect coming to the Yamen?" Qiao Mu was confused.
Except for Wang Songhe, who only practices magic but not immortality, this is the first time he has seen an immortal cultivator.
But this female cultivator looked at her with a warm smile and seemed to be easy to talk to. Although Qiao Mu has the intention to seek death, she cannot easily find trouble... After all, she is not the evil butcher Zheng.
"Hey, Captain Qiao, you didn't listen at all just now." Qian Qian next to him was helpless.
"Then please elaborate further." Qiao Mu said as he habitually wanted to take out some silver, but this time Qian Qian stopped him:
"It's just a small matter this time, no need for this."
"This Supreme Immortal of the Xuantian Sect is here to cooperate with us to solve the 'Impermanent Monster Case'."
"In recent days, there have been many monsters causing trouble in Heyang City, causing harm to people's lives."
"According to the Immortal Mingyue of Xuantian Sect, this monster is called "Impermanence", and it is a strange monster that feeds on the energy of death."
"Every time it appears, it will basically take away a life. Just like the messenger from the underworld in ancient legends, it is black and white and impermanent, so it is called impermanent."
Life and death are impermanent? So auspicious?
Qiao Mu originally just wanted to be a professional gangster, but now he's a little tempted.
