My Lady Is Not A Demon

After making a plan, Chen and Mu secretly sneaked out of the ruins of the blacksmith shop and headed towards the Hanwu Temple.

However, when the two of them had just passed through the old streets and alleys, Yun Zhiyue suddenly grabbed him and hid behind the low wall. A solemn color appeared on that ordinary but very enduring cheek.

"What's wrong?"

Chen Mu thought he had encountered the Penta Guard search team, but after peeking, he could not find any figure.

"Look at the sky!"

The woman said in a deep voice, her brows furrowed.

Hearing this, Chen Mu subconsciously raised his head and looked at the gray sky. At first he didn't notice anything abnormal, but then his face changed.

I saw strange patches of dark shadows appearing in the sky, circling constantly.

"It's an eagle dog!"

Yun Zhiyue said, "This is a kind of spirit beast specializing in the hunting of prisoners.

The woman was quite puzzled.

According to common sense, spirit beasts such as eagle dogs are generally held only when the high-ranking guards appear. With the current configuration of Li Qianhu, they are not eligible to have them.

Could it be...there is another high-level Charon appeared in Qingyu County?

"And this thing?"

Chen Mu squinted his eyes and observed carefully, and as expected, he could vaguely recognize that it was a dog with wings flying in the sky.

He barked his teeth: "Madan, this is simply an unmanned reconnaissance aircraft."

"What chicken?"

Yun Zhiyue didn't understand, she was confused.

"Nothing." Chen Mu shook his head, "what should I do now, they won't smell us."

"Not for the time being. Fortunately, it is rainy now, which will hinder the eagle dog's sense of smell. We have to be careful. I suspect there are a lot of Charon around."

Yun Zhiyue didn't care about men and women to avoid suspicion, and directly grabbed Chen Mu's hand and pulled him carefully and forcefully.

Feeling the woman's tender and cool jade hands, Chen Mu didn't have any charming mentality. He felt a little warm in his heart. He asked softly, "Will it hurt you?"

Yun Zhiyue looked back and smiled: "It's okay, I don't care."

The two sneaked along the secluded path in the old district, and then deliberately circled half a circle from the south side of the chaotic grave. After nearly an hour, they finally came to the boundary of Hanwu Mountain.

Looking at the hazy Cangshan mountain in front of him, Chen Mu heaved a sigh of relief: "Finally, we are going up from the back mountain."

"good."

Yun Zhiyue's tight nerves also loosened.

When she was about to go up the mountain, her body suddenly stiffened, her eyes slanted slantingly--

I saw an eagle dog crawling on a tree not far away, staring at them with sharp scarlet eyes!

It seems to be a messenger from The Underworld, cold and numb to the scalp.

"It has been following us!"

Yun Zhiyue's pretty face changed drastically, and she grabbed Chen Mu's arm and swept up the mountain.

"Roar--"

The roar of the beast penetrated the rain curtain.

The scimitar-like claws leaped into the air, flashing a sharp cold light, and leaped toward the two, with an astonishing aura.

Yun Zhiyue pushed Chen Mu away, her hands quickly changed her handprints, and she squeezed out a dazzling small Lotus flower sword formation.

"cut!"

Following Jiaozha's voice, several invisible Sword Qi slashed towards the Eagle Dog with their cold killing intent, and the latter screamed and fell to the ground.

Yun Zhiyue turned her head and led Chen Mu to continue running towards the mountain.

At this time, the other eagle dogs who heard the roar of their companions rushed over, hovering above the heads of Chen Mu and the two, roaring constantly.

Yun Zhiyue kept making handprints and sword formations, and her heart was anxious.

Huh! Huh! Huh!

Suddenly, black arrows pounced from the sky like ****.

However, these rain of arrows did not shoot at Chen Mu and the others, but stabbed them all on the ground, blocking their way forward.

"Can't go."

Looking at the dense row of arrows nailed to the ground in front of him, Yun Zhiyue could only stop, showing a bitter expression on her face.

The eagle dog had been following them silently for so long, and had already notified the Charon.

The rumbling sound came from far and near, like a black line that split the world and the earth, coming like a tide. In the hazy rain, an army of thousands of people appeared in front of them.

Chen Mu frowned: "Such a big battle is not like Li Qianhu and the others."

"Pluto Orthodox Army!"

Yun Zhiyue gave the answer.

With the approach of the army, the atmosphere of the world is turbulent, giving people a strong sense of oppression.

A black steed with silver armor was at the forefront of the line, and sitting on the horse's back was also a man with a silver mask.

The mask is like a turtle and snake, very strange.

He stared at Chen Mu from a distance, as if looking down at a funny doll.

"Black Tortoise!"

Seeing the man, Yun Zhiyue's face was extremely ugly.

Charon has four The Underworld messengers: Azure Dragon, Vermillion Bird, White Tiger, Black Tortoise.

These four people are all frightening, and the Black Tortoise in front of him ranks the fourth with unpredictable strength, ranking seventeenth in the Xuantian master list.

"It's a pity that my old lady has used up her skills before, otherwise she can work hard."

Yun Zhiyue felt helpless in her heart.

Chen Mu was speechless: "In order to catch me, is it necessary for such a big battle?"

"No, looking at them like this, they should have other tasks, but they just happen to come to Qingyu County to catch you by the way."

Yun Zhiyue said lightly.

While the two were talking, some people hurriedly rushed to the distance, but Gao Yuanchun and other county officials, as well as the government servant Zhang Awei and others.

"The official Gao Yuanchun sees the Black Tortoise envoy."

Gao Yuanchun did not go to see Chen Mu, and hurriedly ran to the Black Tortoise to kneel in front of them, and the people who followed them knelt down.

But Black Tortoise's eyes were always on Chen Mu.

Indifferent as ice.

A silver spear slowly appeared in his hand, and the flexible tip of the spear couldn't help buzzing softly, murderously lingering.

Seeing this, it is clear that Chen Mu's life is to be taken.

This made Chen Mu inexplicable: "Could it be that the emperor secretly ordered me to be killed?"

"Black Tortoise!"

At the moment when the atmosphere was stagnant, another team of Charon rushed forward.

The leader is a rather burly woman with a deep scar on her face, quite heroic.

Gao Yuanchun glanced carefully, shaking his whole body.

Black Ling!

Vermillion Bird is one of the guards around him.

Compared to the Black Tortoise envoy, the Vermillion Bird envoy with the title of Rakshasa is the most frightening, whether it is a member of the Central Government or Rivers and Lakes.

There is even a saying that ‘Ningxia is the eighteenth floor of The Underworld, not entering the gate of Vermillion Bird’s life and death’.

"What's the situation, how come two ancestors came to my small county?"

Gao Yuanchun felt bitter in his heart.

"Black Tortoise, this person can't be killed!"

Hei Ling said coldly with cupped hands.

Looking at the woman who came to obstruct him, Black Tortoise said slowly, "Give me a reason."

The woman hesitated and said, "Kill this person, and you won't find the Snake Demon. Only relying on your subordinate Li Qianhu, it seems..."

"Huh, can he find the snake demon?"

Black Tortoise made a sneer.

"I can!"

Chen Mu said loudly at the right time. "And it's now! Just give me another hour, I can find the snake demon!"

Hearing Chen Mu's tone so determined, Hei Ling's eyes lit up: "In that case, Black Tortoise may as well give him an hour."

Black Tortoise makes his eyes gloomy.

He tapped the icy gun with his fingers, and said lightly after a moment of silence: "Half an hour."

"Can!"

Chen Mu grinned and pointed to the Houshan Hanwu Temple, "Since everyone is here, then follow me to the Hanwu Temple. I will surprise you at that time."

"Huh, I hope so."

Black Tortoise put away the spear and said in a contemptuous tone, "If you can't find the snake monster, you will see me with your head then!"

"must!"

Seeing that the crisis was temporarily resolved, Chen Mu breathed a sigh of relief.

...

The bell sounded quietly and echoed far away.

After being washed by the rain, the temple has a more meditation atmosphere.

When the monks at the gate of the temple saw countless guards and arrests rushing into the temple, each of them turned pale with fright. They didn't know what was going on, so they hurried to inform the abbot and Elder.

Before the abbot and Elder hurried out from the reception hall, Chen Mu and the others had already arrived in front of the hall.

"Chen... Chen catches his head, this is..."

Looking at the magistrate in front of him, as well as the deadly guard, the guardian Elder's heart sank and his brain buzzed.

The first thing he thought of was the previous Yuanyu case.

Could it be that after Chen Mu took the bribe, he turned back?

But the abbot of Wuhui remained calm.

"I'm sorry, I came to disturb you again. I'm really sorry." Chen Mu apologized with cupped hands, "I'm here to do a case today."

Sure enough, it was for Yuan Yu's case!

Hearing this, the law protector Elder's face was blue. Just as he was about to speak out against the other party for shamelessness, Chen Mu took the lead and said, "It's another case."Elder choked, wondering: "Another case?"

Chen Mu went straight into the hall and looked around and saw Mr. Ruan who was equally surprised. The cupped fist cupped hands said: "Mr. Ruan, let's meet again."

"Chen catches the head, you guys..."

Mr. Ruan was about to ask, when he suddenly saw the man behind Chen Mu-wearing a silver turtle and snake mask.

His face turned pale, and after a few seconds he threw himself on his knees.

"Meet the Black Tortoise messenger!"

The current Mr. Ruan has not yet entered the Metropolitan Procuratorate. He is just a commoner. He naturally kneels down when he meets the high official of the Charon.

And even if you enter the Metropolitan Procuratorate, you have to salute.

Charon is like King Yama!

Whoever treats them disrespectfully waits for a mark on the book of life and death.

The Black Tortoise ignored him, sitting on the upper sandalwood chair, coldly said to Chen Mu: "Okay, stop the ink, tell me where the snake demon is?"

Snake demon?

The abbot of Wuhui and the protector Elder looked at each other, not knowing the situation.

"No hurry, wait for me to analyze and solve the Ju Chunlou case, and then tell you where the snake demon is." Chen Mu motioned to everyone to take their seats.

At this time, he saw Xue Caiqing following behind the Ya Ya, his eyes were blank.

I don't know when the other party followed.

Chen Mu frowned and ignored her.

After everyone was seated and other unrelated people left the hall, Chen Mu slowly said: "Before I talk about the Ju Chunlou case, I will talk about another case... the case of Liu Xiangjun!"

Xiangjun!

After seeing Charon, Mr. Ruan, who had been uneasy, was stunned and clenched his fists subconsciously.

Chen Mu glanced at him and said: "Let me just say that on the day of last year's poetry conference, Liu Xiangjun accidentally fell into the water and died. But according to my investigation, she was joined by Yuan Xing'er, Yu Hejia, Wang Lanlan... Killed!"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone except Xue Caiqing was shocked.

"As for why the eleven Yuan Xing'er wanted to kill Liu Xiangjun, it was because of some internal grievances. I will elaborate on this later."

Chen Mu poured a cup of herbal tea on his own, moisturized his throat, and continued,

"In the Ju Chunlou case, these eleven people were killed by the snake demon, and their posture after death was exactly the same as Liu Xiangjun's usual sleeping posture. It can be concluded that someone avenged Liu Xiangjun!

And this person... is her lover!

In other words, the love man found the snake demon and made a deal to let the snake demon help him get revenge! "

"You have said this before..." Gao Yuanchun is now convinced that Chen Mu has discovered something, "and we also dug Liu Xiangjun's coffin, but you are the one on the picture."

"Yes, the person in the painting is indeed me, and that painting was also painted by Liu Xiangjun."

Chen Mu generously admitted.

Black Tortoise sneered: "So, you are the murderer behind Ju Chunlou. No wonder you know where the snake monster is."

"Wrong, the person in the painting is me, but Liu Xiangjun's lover is someone else."

Chen Mu smiled slightly and looked at Xue Caiqing, "The reason why Liu Xiangjun painted that painting was to deceive others, to deceive his own good sisters, so that they would mistake the lover for me."

"Who would it be in your words?" Gao Yuanchun frowned.

Chen Mu took a deep breath, with a complicated tone: "Liu Xiangjun's purpose is to protect the lover. He doesn't want the world to know, and he doesn't want the lover to be spurned by the world...I don't want to ruin the lover's future and life!

I have had several candidates, but none of them was logical until I thought of one person.

A person... with a special identity, that is—"

Chen Mu suddenly pointed to the corner, a man who was always silent, a very handsome monk: "——The next abbot of Hanwu Temple, perseverance!"
