Chapter 344: Night Search for the Envoy Wan Xinrong, Taoist Priest Tao and others followed the white fox, walked along the street in the middle of the night, entered the mansion, and then entered the courtyard, and were immediately startled. I saw lights on in the courtyard, illuminating a mess. The ground was covered with traces of stones and burns. The ground was covered with broken stones and tiles, all mixed with blood. Both the courtyard wall and the tile roof showed obvious signs of damage, obviously having just experienced a fierce battle. There were at least twenty or thirty corpses lying on the ground, almost all of them wearing gray clothes, including both warriors and foreign wizards. The three of them walked in, constantly stepping over the corpses while looking down carefully. They were not invited to the Emperor's birthday banquet half a month ago, but later the Crown Prince invited them to compete with the Dazu Master. After that, no matter who won or lost, they would have a seat in the palace. Naturally, they could recognize who these faces lying in the courtyard were from. The Dazu magician who fought with the strange men of Juxian Mansion in the palace that day and won more than he lost, even if not all of them are here today, I'm afraid most of them are here. Plus those warriors... So many people came to deal with Master Lin! And it’s all folded here… Looking at the people standing in the courtyard, apart from Master Lin and Mr. Luo, there was only his junior sister who was holding a long sword and a whisk and whose body was stained with blood.

The three were both scared and shocked. "Master Lin, we are too late to help you!" Wan Xinrong walked in front and bowed first. "After we go back, I will ask Wu Lingshi to find me a place closer to you!" "It's good that you can come. Thank you in advance." "Don't you dare!" Wan Xinrong was extremely terrified. The lantern magic weapon in his hand was given to him by Lin Jue. There was another sound of footsteps outside the yard. As the lights dimmed, two figures walked in. One is Fan Tianshi who had just put on his clothes and was holding a torch, and the other is Pan Gong who was wearing a straw hat and a raincoat and had water on him. "This is……" When Master Fan Tianshi walked in, he was also shocked. "That day I noticed that these Dazu people seemed to be also very interested in my swallow egg incense, and I embarrassed them, so I made a lot of preparations in the past few days." Lin Jue said, "I thought they would stay in the capital for a full month and take action before leaving, but I didn't expect them to send people today." "It's actually like this! These Dazu people really saw that the imperial court is weak now, so they are so bold!" Master Fan gnashed his teeth and was very angry, but then he changed the subject and said: "The Dazu delegation was supposed to stay in the capital for a full month before leaving. According to past practice, it would sometimes take longer than a month. However, I heard that the chief envoy of the Dazu delegation was in poor health. He was not used to the climate after arriving in Dajiang, and he felt hot and cold in the palace that day, so he fell ill after returning. Moreover, his symptoms became more and more serious. The medical officers in the delegation could not do anything, and the imperial doctors could not cure him either, so they decided to go back early. That must be the reason why they took action today." "So that's it." This kind of information is very important, but I neglected it. Master Fan added: "I just don't know whether he is really seriously ill or just pretending to be seriously ill." This time, the Dazu delegation brought with them many extraordinary people and magicians, each with their own special abilities. If Lin Jue had not intervened in a battle of magic in the imperial palace, it would have been difficult for the extraordinary people in the Juxian Mansion to defeat them. Therefore, if the Dazu envoy deliberately pretended to be sick, it would be normal that the imperial doctors in the palace and the extraordinary people in the capital could not see it. "It doesn't matter. I should go find them anyway." Lin Jue said, turning around and bowing to them. "I will go to the hotel first, and please report to the authorities for me."

"Do you want us to go with the real person?" "That's not necessary." "Then please rest assured, leave it to us!" said Wan Xinrong. "The envoys from Dazu live in Sifang Street, which is full of state guesthouses for ministers from all over the world. There is a special Dazu Pavilion in the middle, and they live there." Master Fan reminded. "Thank you." Lin Jue looked down at his body in the light of the fire and found that there was no blood stain, then he walked out. When the fox saw it, he jumped lightly and followed. The man and the fox were out of the yard in the blink of an eye. Master Fan, Mr. Pan and Wan Xinrong then withdrew their gazes and turned to look towards the courtyard. I saw that Master Lin's pretty and fair-skinned junior sister's clothes were soaked with blood, only the whisk and sword in her hands were spotless and bright white. At this time, she was lowering her head, picking up bone beads from the corpses on the ground. In her hands, she already had a small silver pot, a scimitar and a brown umbrella. Luo Gong took his precious sword and finished off the enemy with one blow after another. The five people who came later looked at each other, and finally looked at Master Fan Tianshi. Tianshi Fan thought for a while, then said, "Then I will report to the authorities and think about how to explain it to the government and the higher-ups. You guys can clean up the bodies on the ground. After that, Lord Pan can use his magical powers to bring water from the lake to wash away the blood and flesh on the ground. We can talk about repairing the walls and roof tomorrow morning." "it is good!" Several people agreed. …… The capital city had become quiet, and the streets were even quieter in the middle of the night, without even the sound of the night watchman. But it was not silent. Nowadays, there are many goblins and ghosts in the capital city, and there are also many cunning people hidden in the city, of all kinds and shapes. There are thieves walking on the rooftops, gangsters operating in the dark, or people drinking and chatting, gambling, or plotting something all night in a seemingly ordinary house. There are also goblins and ghosts who absorb people's yang energy at night, just like people do during the day, coming out to recite poems, compose couplets, and socialize and chat. Or when you hear the noises and the blooming spiritual light near the Juxianfu office, the curious ones want to check it out, while the timid ones whisper and guess. In short, most of the noises are inaudible to ordinary people. Lin Jue could sense some of it but not all, but Fu Yao could hear it clearly. So when it followed the Taoist, it would often stop, look at the houses on the roadside or in the distance, hold its breath and listen to a few words, and then quickly catch up after the Taoist took a few more steps. The footsteps of the man and the fox were not concealed. This became the clearest sound in the night. Most of the people in the martial arts world were alert, and fox spirits and monsters were even more sensitive. So wherever the man and the fox went, the place would quickly become quiet, and even the noises that were difficult for ordinary people to hear would quickly disappear. Only people would hold their breath and quietly walk to the doors and windows, and secretly look out through the gaps in the doors and windows, trying to see who was still walking on the road in the middle of the night. Only after a man and a fox passed by did the whispering become audible.

"It seems to be Master Lin..." "The one that Lord Luo protected..." "He's a Taoist priest!" "Hide quickly..." The fox heard all kinds of sounds, causing it to stop and look back involuntarily. When the peeper saw it looking, he immediately held his breath again. The Taoist walked forward calmly, and so did the fox. One man and one fox are the watchmen for tonight. Until Lin Jue stopped and looked up. Although it was the middle of the night, the stars above were very bright. Although it was winter, there were bright fireflies on the ground. They were like small lanterns holding small candles, flying up into the sky, and using their own light to illuminate the sign of the house for the man and the fox below. The three large characters were looming. "Dazu official..." The fox read it out clearly and carefully. "Cough cough cough..." There was a violent coughing sound coming from above my head, as if the man was coughing out all his internal organs, and then there was the sound of someone talking. "Prime Minister! Are you okay?" "fine……" "Hold on! We'll be back tomorrow!" "I'm afraid I can't hold on any longer..." "You must hold on!" "Why is it so late... cough cough... why aren't you sleeping yet..." "We are guarding the envoy!" "Where are the mages? Where are the warriors?" "them……" "Where did you go?" "I'm sleeping!" "Cough cough cough..." Unfortunately, the language was Dazu dialect, and Lin Jue couldn’t understand it. His response was to throw up his sleeves. "Oh!"

A gust of wind from the sleeves was so powerful that it easily broke open the locked door. The fox cleared the way with a breath of cold air and jumped in first. Its eyesight had also improved. It looked left and right and jumped on the table and the wall, and the oil lamps on the table and the wall lit up. When the people upstairs heard the noise, they panicked and shouted something downstairs in Dazu dialect. When they got no response, they drew their scimitars or daggers, determined to die. The wooden stairs creaked. A young Taoist walked up slowly. They already had this man's appearance memorized deeply. "It's you……" When the envoys saw this, their expressions were very interesting. It was obvious that this man had come here, but the mages and warriors who had gone to look for him had not returned, and everyone knew what had happened. They were in disbelief and pale. The secretary and the medical officer looked alert and confused. "Master Lin..." The envoy raised his head and opened his eyes with difficulty. He first glanced at Lin Jue, then glanced at the reaction of the person in the room, and then closed his eyes again. He had already guessed what had happened. So he opened his mouth and asked, "Is Master Lin here to kill me?" "The envoy is worrying too much. Even when the two armies are fighting, they don't easily kill the envoys. How can I take their life so easily?" Lin Jue said, "Besides, looking at the envoy's condition, his vitality is already weak. I'm afraid he can't even make it back to Dazu. Killing you will only have the opposite effect, right?" "Real person... cough cough..." "But the envoy must know that tonight you sent out magicians and warriors to steal my treasures. When they failed, you wanted to kill me. This is going to cost me my life." Lin Jue turned his head and looked at the envoys in the room who had obviously different expressions and were holding scimitars and daggers. "I wonder who ordered this?" "..." The envoy slowly turned his head and looked at them. Those men were all very young. They looked at each other and started with the one on the far left, who stabbed himself in the chest with a knife. The others saw this and did not hesitate to cut their own necks. Even Lin Jue was stunned for a moment. The people of Dazu are very strong-willed. Then he couldn't help but shook his head and smiled bitterly. Da Jiang is in danger... "Master Lin, if you want to kill me, please do so. But these are the secretaries, doctors, painters, etiquette masters, and translators. Please let them go so that my king will know what happened here. Otherwise, there will be a catastrophe between the two countries." Hearing this, the others were trembling with fear. (End of this chapter)
