Chapter 382 Jiang Liyan's Strangeness
This small piece of paper instantly made Zuo Dodge and Jiang Liyan's eyes serious.
After Zuo Dodge's hand pinched the note, a bloody flame suddenly burst out from it, which appeared extremely bright in the night sky.
Jiang Liyan's face moved slightly, as if he had noticed something, he got up and rushed out, Zuo Dodge followed behind.
This Nansu County is getting more and more interesting.
Obviously, both of them came here in a low-key manner, but they didn't expect that they hadn't entered the city yet, just stepping into the border of Nansu County, it was as if they were known by the whole Nansu County.
Whether it was Yue Chong, Sun Kun or even the person who sent the distress note tonight, they obviously knew the identity of Zuo Daoqi.
This point is really unbelievable.
Zuo Dodge had serious eyes and a serious face, he seemed a little careless.
He has not been in Nansu County for a long time, and he doesn't know much information. He only saw Yue Chong's panel, and maybe he can start from here.
He thought about Yue Chong's panel during the day.
Finally, on a panel of Yue Chong, he saw a message that he ignored.
After Yuanji served as the governor of Nansu County in Yue Chong for four years, he had to meet an expert to teach the Dharma. It was also the year before that, Yue Chong felt that his literary foundation was too poor, so he immediately abandoned literature and went to martial arts.
I saw before that it was Yue Chong who first had an adventure after Empress Wu.
But now that I think about it, it should be that "superior" who met Yue Chong a long time ago. It is very likely that he encouraged Yue Chong to abandon literature and pursue martial arts. Afterwards, Yue Chong did as he said, and passed on Next trick.
This is actually more logical.
This is what Zuo Dodge and Jiang Liyan thought of when they were chasing the mysterious person who left the note.
In the middle of the night, the two shuttled through the streets of Nansu County.
The night here is extraordinarily quiet, as if everyone is very regular and has already fallen asleep at the same time at this time.
Jiang Liyan's voice sounded from the front.
"The yin energy here comes from a yin ghost."
She has a swift figure, and according to the mystery of the Jiulongjing in her hand, she can track such a breath.
Zuo Dodge followed behind, but he kept thinking in his mind.
"Senior sister, who do you think sent this note? Why didn't you send it in? Instead, leave a note and leave?"
Jiang Liyan looked at him with strange eyes, as if to say, do you think I know?
Zuo Dodge smiled and lowered his head.
But there are still many doubts in my heart. Who is monitoring everything in Nansu County?
Yue Chong? Or the so-called expert I thought of before? Or the Sun family?
As Jiang Liyan continued to follow the direction of the surging Yin Qi, after passing through an alley again, a figure appeared in front of him.
This is a person dressed in white, which is extremely clear under the night.
The person walked slowly in the night, Jiang Liyan seemed to recognize the person coming, stood still slightly, and then gave way to Zuo Dodge's figure, as if to let him deal with it.
"It's you?"
Sure enough, this person knew Jiang Liyan, and when his eyes met, he focused his attention on Jiang Liyan.
At this time, Zuo Daoqi naturally wouldn't back down, seeing that his attitude towards Jiang Liyan was not friendly, so he moved forward lightly, a fiery air suddenly came from behind him, like a fire in the void The lotus burns slowly, spins...
"Who are you?"
Hearing Zuo Dodge's words, the man finally turned his head, looked at Zuo Dodge, his pupils shrank slightly, and then said calmly.
"Left Dodge?"
Then at the same time, the two rushed forward at the same time.
Like electricity and light, the figures of the two people were like arrows with indescribable speed, touching each other in an instant.
boom!
The sword light whizzed past, and the colorful light was accompanied by the color of glazed glass.
The two figures are staggered.
The man's eyes were full of fighting spirit, and Zuo Daoqi looked serious.
This person is stronger than Qiu Su, but should be weaker than Hu Yue. It will take some time to win.
Even if his current strength is much higher than when he was fighting Huyue.
Tuk Tuk Tuk~! !
Noisy footsteps came from the streets in all directions in the distance.
Numerous soldiers in armor rushed out from the alley.
The man wanted to continue fighting with Zuo Dodge, but stopped strangely at this moment, then turned his head and took a deep look at Zuo Dodge, before disappearing in the vast night.
Zuo Dodge looked at his left arm, which was being held by Jiang Liyan.
He could feel Jiang Liyan's emotional fluctuations, he rarely saw her like this.
Before he could open his mouth to ask, he saw the surrounding soldiers stopped one after another, holding their spears tightly, and almost surrounded the two of them, as if they were about to behead the two of them just waiting for the Shangguan's order.
"Hahaha! You guys are so brave! This is Mr. Zuo Daoqi Zuo in Kyoto. Although he has no official status now, he was the head of the Mansion of Strange People a few years ago!"
Sun Chulong's characteristic hoarse and arrogant voice came from behind the soldiers.
Somewhat obese, he slowly pushed away the soldiers beside him and walked into Zuo Dodge with strange eyes.
"Master Zuo, did you forget that the official just reminded me today that there is a rebellious party in Nansu County now, for the safety of Sir Zuo, it is better for Sir Zuo not to run around."
"Your Excellency Zuo must not know that the person who fought against you just now was a criminal committed by the imperial court!"
Zuo Dodge was about to speak, but saw another person arriving.
"Chu Long! What are you talking about! Master Zuo is a distinguished guest from Kyoto, how can you be so rude!"
The voice of the second head of the Sun family, Sun Kun reprimanding Sun Chulong came from the attic far away.
"Patriarch, forgive me!" Sun Chulong knelt down on one knee without saying a word.
This scene made Zuo Dodge even more weird.
The fist that was slightly clenched quietly released, looked in Sun Kun's direction, and said with a smile, "It's okay, it's just that I'm used to doing things in the past, and I always like to meddle in other things. Xiaowei Sun just said that Nansu County is troubled now, I don't know Can Patriarch Sun talk to Zuo?"
Sun Kun laughed out loud. "So that's how it is. Since Master Zuo is interested in these things, Chu Long, you can tell Master Zuo. It just so happens that you are going out too, so take Master Zuo with you."
"Master Zuo is powerful in battle, so he must be able to help you, what do you think of Master Zuo?"
Zuo Dodge glanced at Jiang Liyan's eyes, saw that she didn't express anything, so he responded with a smile.
"Then there will be Lieutenant Lao Sun."
Sun Chulong snorted back.
In Nansu City, news of the old Lin royal family has recently been discovered, and Sun Chulong has been chasing after it for a while.
The person who fought against Zuo Daoqi just now is very likely to be the person from the old days.
Knowing all this, Zuo Dodge immediately understood why Jiang Liyan's eyes were a little strange and suspicious when he saw the man in white.
It's like... seeing someone who came back from the dead.
What made Zuo Daoqi interesting was that Sun Chulong took Zuo Daoqi and Jiang Liyan and walked out of the city.
Jiangzhou is not considered a state and county that is completely adjacent to the sea. Only Nanhang County is adjacent to the sea. Although Nansu County is not close to the sea, it has a unique advantage.
The Sujiang River runs across Nansu County, and there is a huge and prosperous port outside the city.
Since ancient times, cities with their backs to ports have generally had extremely developed economies. This is the case in Nansu County. Although the area of the port is not large, it is crowded with people, and the streets are wide and lively.
Sun Chulong's men brought Zuo Daoqi and the others here.
"Lord Zuo, you are very powerful. There are spies in our army reporting that the chaotic party is hiding in this port. Why don't we split up?"
Although he was searching a little bit, Sun Chulong's face was unruly.
Zuo Dodge responded with a smile. Before the matter was clarified, he didn't particularly want to conflict with the Sun family.
After half an hour.
Zuo Daoqi stood on the bank of the Su River, with Jiang Liyan standing in front of him.
"Senior sister, what did you notice?"
Jiang Liyan pointed to the crowd in the distance, and said softly, "These people all speak with foreign accents."
The accents along the southeast coast are in stark contrast to other places in Dajin. Dajin is too big, and there is a big gap between the accents between the north and the south.
Hearing this, Zuo Daoqi raised his brows slightly, then glanced towards the distant port, and locked on a supervisor who was holding a ledger in his hand and drinking tea in the shed, so he walked over with a three-coin sword on his chest, The flames above are rushing and surging like living things.
The supervisor stared fixedly at Zuo Dodge, his eyes lingering on the sword in his hand for a long time.
He didn't know Zuo Daoqi, but it didn't prevent him from seeing that his identity was not simple. Such a handsome young man with such an extraordinary long sword in his hand could easily make people think of him as a descendant of an aristocratic family.
This is the southeast, where there are powerful families everywhere.
The civilians here have already formed a set of unique etiquette for dealing with the children of the aristocratic family, so he quickly bent over and stood up, nodded and bowed, "What does this young master want?"
While speaking, he took out a handful of broken silver from his pocket and offered it with both hands.
Zuo Dodge didn't even look at it, and said directly, "Are you the leader of this group?"
He pointed to the busy workers in the distance.
The overseer nodded repeatedly.
Zuo Daoqi looked deeply, "Are you all from Nansu County?"
"No, the younger ones are all from Xuzhou in the north."
"There is no one from the southeast?" Zuo Dodge asked calmly.
"No!"
The overseer replied sonorously and decisively.
Zuo Dodge nodded upon hearing this.
Looking at the back of Zuo Dodge leaving, the overseer looked strange, "You don't even want money, which family's young master is this?"
Zuo Dodge entered the port and asked a lot of people to confirm that there are very few workers and coolies in this port, not to mention the people in Nansu County, even in the southeast area.
The accent and dialect are all kinds of strange, like a hodgepodge.
Even he didn't only pay attention to the bottom layer, but also asked about some places to enjoy and eat in the port.
Without exception, there is no one from Nansu County.
Returning to Jiang Liyan's side, Zuo Daoqi said softly, "Senior sister is right, there is not a single person from Nansu County in this port."
"It's really strange. There is such a prosperous port in front of my house, but I don't see a local person. Could it be possible that planting the wind and cloud grass really has such great benefits?"
Jiang Liyan shook his head, "Help me find that person from yesterday."
She looked a little dazed, wondering if she heard Zuo Dodge's words.
Seeing this, Zuo Daoqi stepped forward to hold her hand, and promised in a low voice, "Senior sister, don't worry."
Jiang Liyan didn't even notice that Zuo Daoqi grabbed her hand, but his expression was still in a daze.
Suddenly, there was a shocking explosion in the distance.
A series of roars made the port tremble.
Jiang Liyan seemed to have sensed something, and suddenly broke free from Zuo Dodge's hand, and flew into the distance.
Zuo Dodge hurriedly followed.
Ever since seeing the mysterious man in white last night, Jiang Liyan has been very strange, and he couldn't ask her anything.
The place where the battle took place was full of blood.
Zuo Daoqi knew in his heart that it was Sun Chulong's soldiers who formed an formation to attack.
Such a strong blood, even pure strength, is no less than the hundred-man team of the six guards in the capital city.
Soon, the two came to the place where the battle took place.
Regardless of Jiang Liyan's concern, he wanted to go in.
Sun Chulong reappeared, holding a strange military staff in his hand, his face was bloody, and there was a strange blood in his eyes.
"Master Zuo! I am waiting for military affairs, please don't make trouble!"
Zuo Daoqi chuckled lightly, "Lieutenant Sun is a bit too unkind, isn't he? Zuo helped to investigate people, but Patriarch Sun personally agreed. Is it possible that Captain Sun intends to disobey?"
He looked at the bloody army formation in the distance. As the distance approached, he felt more joy. Although this army formation was powerful, the evil spirit in it was far less intense than the Six Guards of Kyoto.
It feels like using drugs to train a bunch of recruits who have never been on the battlefield.
But the recruits all have cultivations in the realm of divine orifices, which is extremely surprising.
This extreme contrast made Zuo Dodge curious.
Sun Chulong showed a ferocious face, and raised his army stick in his hand, "The captain of the school said, perform military duties! Zuo Daoqi, don't toast or eat fine wine!"
Blood energy suddenly surged out, stacking layers upon layers, not only blocking Jiang Liyan who was about to move forward, but also deeply engulfing Zuo Daoqi in it.
In the red light soaring into the sky, the smile on Zuo Dodge's face suddenly disappeared.
He pressed down with one hand, as if he held an invisible sword in his hand.
"Do you not understand what the captain said? If you don't understand, the captain will explain it to you personally. If you understand, get out now!"
There was a chill in Zuo Dodge's eyes, and there was a cold smile on the corner of his mouth.
"I seem to respect Captain Sun too much..."
"The previous politeness to Captain Sun caused Captain Sun to misunderstand Zuo."
Zuo Dodge grabbed Jiang Liyan and took a step forward, the flames and thunder roared.
"It's necessary, let Captain Sun get to know Zuo again..."
The fire lotus emerged quietly.
Sun Chulong showed disdain, Zuo Daoqi was a young man, in his heart, he was such a person, bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, flattering the superior and the inferior, the so-called reputation was just a rumor spread by the people in the capital.
This person is greedy for power, he was on the wrong team when the new king came to the throne, and lost his official position. Now he is white, but he is so greedy for power, trying to impress the new king with so-called actions.
In some respects, this is in line with Zuo Daoqi's image in some things, just like he is a cold palace eunuch who naturally flatters his superiors and bullies his subordinates...
People are always trapped by their own cognition, looking for so-called explanations that they can believe in.
At this point, everyone has such problems.
Zuo Dodge had no expression on his face, Huo Lian turned around, and then his figure exploded in, making a strange swishing sound in the air.
Sun Chulong didn't seem to expect that Zuo Dodge would make a sudden move, and hastily crossed his hands to block.
boom! !
The air machine in the air continued to explode and spread to the surroundings.
Sun Chulong's body seemed to have been hit by a huge truck, the clothes on his legs exploded inch by inch, and the sound of bone shattering continued to resound.
Zuo Daoqi looked contemptuous, and put away the fire lotus used to suppress the blood around him.
Sun Chulong was lying on the ground, his twisted limbs expressed to others that Zuo Dodge had no scruples in his shots just now.
Qi and blood surged, and he forcibly propped up his bones with Qi and blood, trying to make himself stand up.
In the light of blood, a big hand stretched out suddenly, grabbed his neck precisely, and pulled him up from the ground.
"Sometimes, the gap between people is like that between people and dogs. Captain Sun doesn't really think that a fourth-rank martial artist is qualified to fight with me, does he?"
