Nightwatcher

Dreaming?

Mu Nanzhi examined him carefully, and after a while, seeing that nothing bad happened, she was relieved.

"Smelly boy, stinky boy."

She stretched out her hand and shaved Xu Qi'an's scalps, feeling refreshed for a while.

The princess quietly vented her dissatisfaction with being left out along the way. Although this guy treated her pretty well, except for the occasional few sleeps in the barren hills, most of the time she lived in the best inn and ate the most delicious food. .

But it's too much respect for each other.

Except for Sun Xuanji who went a little "excessively" that time, on weekdays, at most, he would shake her little hand. Even if the old lady changed her face, she was still the number one beauty in Dafeng, so she was so unattractive?

"You hit Xu Yingong!"

The little white fox on the bed poked its head out, staring at Mu Nanzhi with dark eyes, like a child who discovered a big secret, and said softly:

"I'm going to tell him!"

Mu Nanzhi rolled his eyes and said: "At worst, you come and beat him up too, I won't say anything."

The little white fox tilted his head, thought for a while, and said, "Okay!"

It quickly crawled out of the warm blanket, jumped out of the bed, came to the small slump, and jumped hard.

"oops!"

It failed to jump up, and its belly knocked over the edge of the bed.

"For useless things, how many miles do you still travel every day?"

Mu Nanzhi pouted, and hugged it to the bed.

"Stealth and speed are my natural supernatural powers, but they consume too much mana. I'm still young, and my own strength is too weak."

Saying so, it crawled onto Xu Qi'an's body, with its two front paws bowed left and right, slapping his ears, berating him coquettishly while beating:

"Sister Yeji won't give you money if you sleep with her, and sister Yeji won't give you money if you sleep with her."

Although the strength is not great, the momentum is vigorous.

After it finished beating, Mu Nanzhi smiled and picked up the little white fox, and said, "Talk to Auntie, what do you mean Sister Sleeping Ji doesn't give money?"

All she knew was that Ye Ji was the little white fox's older sister and Xu Qi'an's old lover.

In the cellar, Xu Qi'an felt as if he had returned home, enduring the pungent smell, feeling pain and joy.

He followed the hooded corpse, bowed his waist, and sneaked quietly until he saw the walking corpse, "he" kept removing the hood of the corpse, as if he was looking for something.

who is he? In other words, who is controlling him behind the scenes?

With such doubts, Xu Qi'an remained patient and waited quietly.

Time slipped away, and after two quarters of an hour, he carefully inspected all the corpses, and then entered a certain small door.

A cellar within a cellar?

The oil lamp on the wall gave off a faint yellow halo, just when Xu Qian was considering whether to go in, "he" came out, closed the door gently, turned around and returned to the way he came.

He was about to leave, and Orange Cat An retreated immediately without hesitation.

It left the cellar before the walking corpses, jumped out of the small courtyard, and hid by the green belt outside the courtyard.

Not long after, a black shadow popped out of the yard straight and landed with a "click".

Afterwards, "he" sneaked towards Chai Xing'er's residence silently, and left without hesitation after listening to the ups and downs in the yard.

This person is very familiar with the Chai Mansion, and cleverly avoided the night patrols of the family's children, and left the Chai Mansion without any danger.

During this process, Xu Qi'an has been following "him".

In the cold night, the walking corpses are extremely fast, shuttling through the streets and alleys, evading the city defense forces patrolling the streets. This is not difficult. In a small county-level state like Xiangzhou, night patrols are limited.

It is impossible to be as tight as the capital.

However, because of Chai Xian's recent murders, the government stepped up patrols, and the city gates were closed after dusk.

The orange cat Ann followed the walking corpse around, and finally came to a small river.

poof.

Water splashed, and the walking corpse simply jumped into the water and disappeared.

He found me? No, the manipulated corpse does not have the supernatural power of the body, unless the corpse itself is in the realm of refining gods, but in this case, he should have discovered me a long time ago

The orange cat followed the river and looked at the towering city wall in the distance, and suddenly understood the other party's intentions.

"He" intends to dive into the river and follow the river out of the city.

The orange cat ran wildly along the river bank, and only jumped into the water when it was close to the city wall.

The reason for this is that the cat's physical strength is not enough to swim a hundred meters in the water, and follow-up tracking has to be considered.

The river was icy cold and turbid, making it difficult to see. The orange cat paddled its limbs under the water, passed the city wall smoothly, and appeared outside the city.

Ripples rippling on the dark water, the orange cat paddled hard and came to the shore.

Generally speaking, such rivers that pass through the city will have iron nets under them, but it is not absolute. After all, people in this era have a very poor sense of hygiene, and all garbage is thrown into the river.

It is easy to cause blockage.

Therefore, whether to set up iron nets depends entirely on the consciousness of the local government.

After landing on the shore, the orange cat raised her head slightly, twitched her nose, and smelled the faint smell of corpses.

It shot out like a sharp arrow, and after a while, under the dim moonlight, the figure of the walking corpse was seen.

One "person" and one cat kept a relatively safe distance and walked for an hour. During this process, Xu Qi'an stopped and rested many times to replenish his strength.

The characteristic of cats is that they are fast but have extremely poor endurance.

This long-distance journey has seriously exhausted the orange cat's physical strength.

If it were a dog, Xu Qi'an felt that it wouldn't be a problem to accompany him to the wilderness.

Passing through field ridges, dense forests, and wasteland, finally, a small village appeared in front of us, located in the silent darkness.

To be able to manipulate walking corpses to go so far, the manipulator's cultivation level is not low. Xu Qi'an, who is an expert in corpse voodoo, thought to himself.

At least he doesn't have the strength now.

The walking corpse walked along the muddy path familiarly, and came to the gate of a family. There were two tall haystacks in the yard.

The walking corpse raised his hand and knocked on the door lightly.

The door of the yellow mud house opened, and someone jumped out with a lantern. He was not tall and seemed to be a child.

The child opened the courtyard door, welcomed the walking corpse into the courtyard, closed the courtyard door again, and returned to the house.

Then, a firelight shone through the small window.

"Uncle Xian, have you found sister Xiaolan?"

The voice is soft and crisp, it is a girl.

"No!"

A tired voice replied.

The orange cat immediately jumped up the city wall and squatted in the courtyard to eavesdrop.

"Then what should we do? Damn it, who is framing Uncle Xian?" the girl said angrily.

The voice didn't answer, and after a long while, he said more and more tiredly: "I don't know. It's getting late, Er Ya, go to bed quickly."

"oh!"

The girl replied, and then the candle was extinguished, and there was no sound.

Uncle Xian, Sister Xiaolan, the corpse who sneaked into Chai Mansion is Chai Xian!

Ju Mao'an immediately made a judgment.

In Xiangzhou city, in the inn, Xu Qi'an opened his eyes.

He sat up abruptly, startling Mu Nanzhi and the little white fox who were huddled under the blanket and whispering.

"Did you hit me just now?"

Xu Qi'an said angrily.

"She (it) hit it."

Mu Nanzhi and the little white fox threw the blame at the same time.

"I'll deal with you later."

Xu Qi'an muttered, and then said in a deep voice: "I'll go out for a while, you guys go to bed first."

Mu Nanzhi didn't bother to ask, she reached out and touched the little white fox's head, she would not be so scared with this little thing by her side.

Xu Qi'an turned into a shadow and left.

In a small village, the orange cat Ann is about to leave quietly, waiting for the arrival of the main body.

"My friend, it turns out I'm a guest, why bother to leave."

After the words fell, Orange Maoan heard a sound from the haystack beside her, and four figures emerged from the haystack.

The moonlight was hazy, the four of them were dressed in rags, their faces were expressionless, lifeless, and they looked at the orange cat faintly with their dead eyes.

I was found to be cute on the spot. I don’t know if I can pass the test by being cute. He thought to himself, uttered words, and smiled lightly:

"Chai Xian?"

The door of the yellow mud house opened, and a man in common clothes came out with a lantern.

He has handsome features, is 1.8 meters tall, has a gentle and restrained temperament, and his brows are full of depression.

The moment he saw this person, Xu Qi'an's mind went "boom", filled with boundless surprise.

In his field of vision, this person was shrouded in golden light, with a faint dragon shadow walking around his body, and his appearance was extraordinary.

Dragon Qi Host!

Compared with the county tyrant who was beheaded by him with a single knife, this one's dragon aura is many times stronger. This is one of the nine vital dragon auras.

I didn't find out that the other party was the host of the dragon qi just now, because he was not there, and the fragments of the book from the ground were not there, so there was no interaction with the dragon qi.

Until now, seeing this person with his own eyes, Xu Qi'an didn't see the dragon energy.

"It turns out that Chai Xian is the host of the dragon's energy? It's easy to find nowhere to find it. If it wasn't for a whim and frequent cases in Xiangzhou, I might not stay in Xiangzhou for a long time. No, it's not luck, it's It's the aggregation effect between Long Qi and me."

Xu Qi'an was so pleasantly surprised that he almost wanted to "meow".

"Who are you?"

He restrained his emotions and responded calmly: "It's just a ranger."

Chai Xian looked at the orange cat, nodded, and said softly: "This place is not suitable for talking, follow me."

Leaving the courtyard, the two came to a secluded alley, Xu Qi'an took the initiative to say: "I heard about the Chai family in Xiangzhou, and I was quite curious about it, so I went to the Chai family at night, but I didn't expect to bump into you. "

Chai Xian said lightly: "So?"

Xu Qi'an said bluntly: "I have already understood what happened. There are many doubts about your father's murder. I'm afraid it's not as simple as it seems."

Chai Xian seemed a little surprised, and said with disbelief:

"Your Excellency might as well talk about it. There are a lot of doubts. Where are the many?"

"The biggest doubt is "father killing". Although there are indeed fathers who are not worthy of being sons in this world, the head of the Chai family treats you pretty well. No matter how much you love Miss Chai, you just need to take her away. Why bother?" To make things so bad.

"If you are a pure villain and insist on repaying your kindness, then you will be killed and your childhood sweetheart will be taken away. You should have escaped long ago. Why bother to hang around Xiangzhou again?"

The orange cat talks eloquently and has a clear mind.

Chai Xian was silent for a moment, then sighed:

"It's a pity that there are too few smart people like your Excellency in the world. I didn't kill my adoptive father, and I didn't kidnap Xiaolan. I stayed in Xiangzhou to find out who framed me behind the scenes."

"Oh? Tell me, what have you found out, who do you suspect?"

The orange cat is happy to delay time, waiting for the main body to arrive.
