Chapter 191 Suspicious target (please subscribe)
The city was closed for three days, with no entry or exit allowed. It seemed like a simple order, but in fact it was an extremely bold and risky decision.
If there is any turmoil, the county governor Cui Tan will immediately take the blame and resign, and the Meng family and Tianxing Hall Leng Xuanfeng will also be greatly affected.
Let’s talk about the impact of closing the city first. Because we are hunting down the murderers, a large number of officers, soldiers and Meng family members spread out, which will naturally cause panic among the people. Most of them will stay at home, resulting in empty alleys. In a short period of time, the city will be empty. The economy is bound to suffer fluctuations and impacts.
Besides, the ban on entry and exit directly caused the paralysis of trade. As a prosperous county, Nan'an had both land and water trade channels blocked. Not to mention the resentment of many people who passed through Nan'an and were forced to stay in Nan'an...
All in all, the impact of the decision to close the city is by no means small. Three days is also the maximum time limit. By then, regardless of whether Hu Yingxiong and the person who rescued him can be caught, the county capital will definitely lift the ban.
In this way, the pressure is placed on the Meng family's Tianxing Hall. It is uncertain whether they can catch those two people within this limited time, especially the master who sneak attacked the Tianxing Hall's innate master, which is equivalent to a landmine hidden underground. When will it explode.
When Meng Zhao received the news, it was already the next morning, and he heard Lu Le reporting the matter to him with a worried look on his face, and his face was not very good either.
The innate person who died in the sneak attack was named Wu Xian. He was an old subordinate of Leng Wanfeng when he was in the capital. He had an innate cultivation level of five orifices, was proficient in Xuan Shuang Sword Technique, and was a disciple of Hidden Sword Palace, one of the thirteen families. In terms of He is definitely not weak when it comes to martial arts.
According to the judgment of Meng Jizu and Leng Xuanfeng, the person who attacked him must have a cultivation level above the Seven Innate Apertures. This is a high-end force in the entire Nan'an County. There are not many people who can be suspected.
Therefore, at dawn this morning, Meng Jizu and Meng Hongdao had already left the house, met with Leng Wanfeng, and visited the famous and suspected innate masters in the city one by one. They said they were visiting, but in fact they were interrogating them.
"Ale, what do you think the purpose of this innate master who rescued Hu Yingxiong is, and what is his origin and identity?"
In fact, there was no reason or reason for what Meng Zhao asked. After all, Lu Le's environment and status were too low, and he didn't know much about innate masters. But since it was him who asked, there must be a reason.
Lu Le also knew this. His round face was full of doubts and worries. He hesitated for a moment before replying,
"Master, the other party who rescued Hu Yingxiong was either a back-up arranged by Hu Wanwan in advance, which may be related to the hell realm, or it was a force hostile to the Meng family that deliberately rescued Hu Yingxiong and carried out some conspiracy.
As for which one it is, Xiaonu doesn't know much about it and dare not make any rash judgments. "
In fact, there are many possibilities. For example, a hero who was a chivalrous and righteous man was not angry when he saw Hu Yingxiong suffering, so he had a seizure and rescued him. Or he could be a crazy man who was insane and attacked Wu Xian secretly.
But these possibilities are too low to be accepted, so what Lu Le said is probably the truth.
Meng Zhao nodded, tapped his fingers lightly on the table, making a muffled sound, frowned, as if thinking of something difficult, and said,
"Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for a well-known innate master in the county to go against the Meng family and Tianxing Hall. This would be courting death, and would bring disaster to his family.
Therefore, there are definitely not many people who can and dare to do this.
Ah Le, can our people be sure where Shi Jie was yesterday? "
When Lu Le heard Shi Jie's name, his face suddenly changed, his expression was very ugly, he shook his head and said,
"No, since the young master gave the order, I have asked our people to monitor Shi Jie, but he is an innate master, he comes and goes without a trace, and his dexterity skills are so high that our people can't keep up with him at all.
Master, do you suspect that the person who rescued Hu Yingxiong was Shi Jie? "
Lu Le thought about it carefully, let alone saying that it was really possible.
First of all, Shi Jie has this strength. The specific level of his martial arts is unknown, but it is not impossible to be able to fight against a peerless wizard like Shen Tianci, to deal with Liu Song, a master of the Drizzle Sword, and to sneak attack Wu Xian to death.
Secondly, the relationship between Shi Jie and Meng Zhao is gradually becoming tense. The last time they met, it was not much worse not to mention breaking up. If it weren't for Tu Xiu's treasure tied up in the middle, the two would have gone their separate ways. , until old age and death, no contact with each other.
Moreover, Meng Zhao's treasure key was deceived from the Hu family. Shi Jie may have heard some rumors or found some clues, so he set his sights on the Hu family and rescued Hu Yingxiong. This would not only disgust Meng Zhao, but also It is also possible to find the whereabouts of the third key.
Finally, Shi Jie was born in the evil path, and he was on the same level as the magic bat. He was so bold that he would definitely dare to do this.
Therefore, Meng Zhao's suspicion is not unreasonable, but rather very possible.
However, this is troublesome.
Now the Meng family and Tianxing Hall are going crazy to find people, and they are very determined and strong, which can be seen from the three-day closure of the city.
If Shi Jie is really caught, then Meng Zhao's idea of getting the treasure map key from him will be in vain, and he might not be able to keep the key in his hand.
The more he thought about it, the angrier and more anxious he became. Meng Zhao could no longer hold back his anger and swept the tea cup at hand to the ground. It shattered into pieces. Lu Le's eyelids on one side were twitching and his blood was rising.
This was the first time that Meng Zhao became so angry.
However, it is understandable that in Meng Zhao's calculation, Hu Wanwan's roster and the wealth in Tu Xiu's treasure are the foundation for him to establish his power and even expand his second family.
As for the artifacts and martial arts creations that may be hidden inside, it is also a rare opportunity for him to improve his personal strength.
If something unexpected happens, it will go down the drain, and it may even make the entire Meng family dissatisfied with him.
It would be strange if he showed nothing.
After Meng Zhao vented his anger, he quickly calmed down, gritted his teeth, and ordered Lu Le,
"You go do two things right away.
First, secretly inform Sun Chuanshan and ask him to keep his mouth shut. Regarding Shi Jie, treat it as if nothing happened. If there is even the slightest hint of it coming out, I will kill him.
Second, let Han Pu go to see Shi Jie and find a safe place to hide him temporarily.
Regardless of whether he did this or not, there is a possibility that he will be exposed.
If Shi Jie refuses, then listen to my instructions. "
Meng Zhao was also itching his teeth with hatred at this time. He wished he could just dig Shi Jie out and hand it over to the Meng family and Tianxing Hall for disposal.
But reason told him that even if Shi Jie was going to die, he would have to die silently in his hands, otherwise if something were to come out, it would only do him harm, not good.
So now he has to wipe this guy's ass.
As for Hu Yingxiong, Meng Zhao didn't take it to heart at all. The other party was forced to death by him, so what could he do?
Of course, Meng Zhao would not turn a blind eye to him.
He knew that Hu Yingxiong was 100% still in the city and hiding somewhere that others might not be able to find out for the time being.
But he was different. Hu Wanwan's roster contained many secret relationships run by Hu Wanwan. It was impossible to say that Hu Yingxiong was hiding in a hidden home.
A well-directed pursuit is better than an aimless search for a needle in a haystack.
