Chapter 252 Lu Meeting

I just don't know what the wool is being taken this time.

Mo Hua is still very curious, but since Zhang Lan has made up his mind not to tell me, he probably won't be able to ask.

Mo Hua asked again: "Is that bald guy very powerful?"

Zhang Lan shook his head, "The bald monk has done many evil things, but his cultivation is not too strong. At most, he is a little stronger than the average sinner."

"Can he be a big brother?"

"He has good body skills, runs fast, and lives long."

Mo Hua understood that he got to this position by accumulating experience.

Then he asked again: "What body skills did the bald monk practice?"

Before, the bald monk was surrounded and was able to escape from one or two hundred demon hunters, which shows that his body skills are indeed extraordinary.

Zhang Lan said: "He has a wind spirit root, and he learned a body skill called the Wind Technique. This body skill is not good at actual combat, but it is extremely fast and is best used for escaping."

Mo Hua wanted it when he heard it, but he didn't have a wind spirit root, so he couldn't learn it, which was a bit of a pity.

There is water in the five elements, but no wind, so he can learn the art of concealment, although the effect is not good, but he can't learn the wind-based body movements at all.

The wind-speed technique, you can tell it's running very fast.

I don't know if my water prison technique can trap this bald guy.

Mo Hua pondered silently in his heart, and then said: "Tell me, how can I help you."

"Didn't you set up that... Si Nan Zi Mu Fu Array in the inner mountain..."

Zhang Lan said, and complained in his heart why this array was so difficult to pronounce. It sounded very complicated, and it was really a pity that Mo Hua could draw it...

Then he continued: "When the time comes, use the array to assist Dao Tingsi in hunting down the bald monk."

"No problem." Mo Hua nodded, and asked again: "Then what?"

"That's it."

"Is it that simple?"

"It's that simple." Zhang Lan drank a sip of wine leisurely, "If this matter is complicated, or if there is really any danger, I won't let you go."

There is no foundation-building cultivator among the sinners. The eldest brother is the bald man, plus some sinners. Mo Hua can't beat them, but he can definitely run away.

Besides, just using the array to find them is basically a piece of cake, it just takes some time.

Mo Hua was a little confused again: "Why don't you ask Elder Yu for help? Logically speaking, the matter of demon hunters should be under the jurisdiction of Elder Yu. And I have given a set of this formation to my father and Uncle Yu."

"The chief went to see Elder Yu, and the elder told us to find you." Zhang Lan said.

"The elder said that?" Mo Hua was a little surprised.

Zhang Lan raised his eyebrows, "Elder Yu wants you to do a favor to Dao Ting Si, so that if anything happens in the future, as long as it is not a big deal, Dao Ting Si will cover you."

"And this matter is not dangerous, otherwise Elder Yu would not agree to let you take risks."

Zhang Lan thought about it and couldn't help saying: "Your Elder Yu is really good to you."

"Of course!" Mo Hua smiled.

Zhang Lan shook his head, and then said: "In a few days, someone from the Daoting Division of Qingxuan City will come, and we will go into the mountain together."

"Will it take a few more days? In a few days, even if Kong Sheng is not dead, he will be almost dead." Mo Hua said.

"Isn't that just right?" Zhang Lan smiled.

Mo Hua was stunned, and then smiled and said: "Indeed."

It's okay to wait a few days, wait until Kong Sheng is dead before saving him, and then catch the bald monk, and there will be two fewer troubles, and the Great Black Mountain will be quiet.

Zhang Lan chatted with Mo Hua about some trivial matters, ate meat, drank wine, and got up and left.

After walking a few steps, Zhang Lan suddenly turned around and whispered to Mo Hua:

"Don't tell anyone about that."

Mo Hua was stunned, "That? What?"

"The matter of the Water-Passing Step."

"Oh." Mo Hua remembered and said, "Don't worry, if you don't tell me, I almost forgot. No matter who asks, I will say that the Water-Passing Step was not taught by you."

"That's good."

Zhang Lan nodded, and then he felt a little uncomfortable, "Keep it in your heart and don't tell anyone, but don't really forget it."

This Water-Passing Step is the unique skill of his Zhang family after all, and he can't forget it no matter what...

A few days later, as Zhang Lan said, people from the Daoting Division of Qingxuan City came.

Mo Hua also followed Zhang Lan and met the cultivators of Qingxuan City.

The leader of this group of cultivators was a thin, gloomy, greedy middle-aged cultivator, who was at the ninth level of Qi Refining. His name was Lu Hui, and he was the chief of the Dao Ting Division of Qingxuan City, with the same position as Zhang Lan.

The other three were also at the late stage of Qi Refining, one at the seventh level, and two at the eighth level. They were lower in position and were the executives of Qingxuan City.

Zhang Lan and Lu Hui exchanged a few words hypocritically. Mo Hua didn't want to deal with such a person, so he kept silent.

Lu Hui had a fake smile on his face, praised Zhang Lan a few words, and then said he wanted to meet Ji Qingbai.

Zhang Lan didn't refuse, and also wanted to know what Lu Hui was up to.

Zhang Lan asked someone to invite Ji Qingbai to the Dao Ting Division, and Lu Hui got straight to the point and asked Ji Qingbai to go into the mountains with him to help rescue Kong Sheng, the young master of the Kong family.

Ji Qingbai frowned and said, "Lu Dianshi, what do you mean?"

What does it have to do with him whether Kong Sheng lives or dies?

Lu Hui pretended to care for Ji Qingbai, "Brother Ji, you are responsible for the disappearance of Master Kong..."

Ji Qingbai's eyes were slightly cold.

Lu Hui continued, "Before in Qingxuan City, you and your son beat Master Kong for no reason, and then fled for fear of crime. Master Kong was young and hot-tempered, and wanted to seek justice, so he mistakenly entered the Black Mountain, which led to misfortune and unknown whether he was alive or dead."

"It is unreasonable for you not to save him."

Ji Qingbai was a little angry, so he said, "Lu Hui, don't wrongly accuse people, it is obviously Kong Sheng who is bullying too much!"

Lu Hui sighed, "This matter has been notarized, the casual cultivators in the neighborhood and the followers of the Kong family have testified that you beat Master Kong for no reason. Now you have no evidence, how can you prove your innocence?"

This is obviously a frame-up.

Zhang Lan frowned, and Mo Hua was also a little angry.

Ji Qingbai sneered, "Has your Qingxuan City Dao Ting Division really become a running dog of the Kong family?"

Lu Hui's face gradually darkened, "Brother Ji, you are slandering my Qingxuan City Dao Ting Division."

Ji Qingbai snorted coldly and said nothing.

Lu Hui then frowned and said, "I also heard that Master Kong disappeared because you, Brother Ji, colluded with local monks and secretly did it. Now it seems that this is not impossible..."

"You!" Ji Qingbai was furious.

Zhang Lan frowned and said, "Does Lu Dianshi mean that the laws of our Tongxian City are lax, and the monks are colluding to deliberately murder Young Master Kong?"

Lu Hui bowed and said, "Don't blame me, Zhang Dianshi, it's just a rumor."

Zhang Lan's eyes were cold, "If there is no evidence, please be careful with your words, Lu Dianshi!"

Lu Hui smiled and didn't care, then said:

"Whether this is true or false depends on what Brother Ji does..."

"If Brother Ji can help and successfully rescue Young Master Kong, these rumors will naturally be broken, and the Kong family will forgive the offense of Brother Ji and his son to the Kong family. Otherwise, the Kong family will not let you two go."

Lu Hui looked at Ji Qingbai, and a gloomy flashed in his eyes: "What do you think, Brother Ji?"

Ji Qingbai's face changed.

He had already hidden in Tongxian City, but the Kong family and this group of running dogs still didn't let him go. He just wanted to find a place to live in peace and stability.

Ji Qingbai had no choice but to sigh: "Just follow what Lu Diansi said."

"Okay! Then we will go into the mountain tomorrow."

Lu Hui nodded, with a hint of sinisterness in his eyes.

After Lu Hui left, Ji Qingbai looked solemn.

Mo Hua asked Ji Qingbai: "Uncle Ji, this Lu Hui is not a good guy, right?"

Ji Qingbai smiled bitterly, "Did you see that?"

Mo Hua nodded, "Like a snake, gloomy, sticking out his tongue when talking, as if spitting out his tongue."

Ji Qingbai sighed, "Lu Hui is greedy, greedy, cruel, and the most vicious. He works the hardest for the Kong family."

"Has he done a lot of bad things?"

"When the Kong family did something bad, they were reported to the Daoting Division. He was the one who covered it up, either by threatening, bribing, or forcing."

Ji Qingbai looked a little depressed, and said slowly:

"Two years ago, Kong Sheng harmed a girl of fourteen or fifteen years old. The girl was ruined beyond recognition, and finally she died of shame and anger. She committed suicide."

"Her father went to the Dao Ting Division to file a complaint, but was locked up in Dao Prison by Lu Hui. After being tortured for a few days, he was released. He dared not say anything more. He felt guilty for his daughter and had no desire to live, so he committed suicide..."

"This matter was a hot topic at the time, but it was finally left unresolved."

Mo Hua felt heartbroken, turned to look at Zhang Lan, and asked:

"No one cares when things have come to this point?"

Zhang Lan was also angry, but could only sigh: "We can't control it. This kind of collusion between local forces and intertwined interests is difficult to eradicate."

Mo Hua said: "The Dao Ting should have a supervisory agency."

Zhang Lan was slightly surprised, "How did you know?"

"I guessed." Mo Hua said.

The Dao Ting could not delegate power to the local Dao Ting Division without trying to supervise it, otherwise once the local Dao Ting Division did evil, no one would control it.

Zhang Lan nodded and said, "The Dao Court does have an inspection department to inspect whether the behavior of the local Dao Court Department violates the Dao Law, but the inspection department acts in secret and has limited staff, so it is impossible to cover everything."

Mo Hua's eyes lit up, "Uncle Zhang, you are a family member, right?"

Zhang Lan felt uneasy, "What do you want to do?"

"Can you complain to the inspection department?"

Zhang Lan was helpless, "How can it be so easy to complain? Jiuzhou is so big, and the Zhang family's influence is not everywhere, and the inspection department may not be able to manage it."

"Give it a try."

Zhang Lan sighed, "Okay, I'll send a letter back to ask. But don't have too much expectation, a strong dragon cannot suppress a local snake, especially in a small place like this, where various forces are in collusion, and weeding can't get rid of the roots."

"Weeding is fine." Mo Hua smiled, "Thank you, Uncle Zhang."

Ji Qingbai was also excited and bowed, saying, "Thank you, Zhang Diansi!"

Zhang Lan waved his hand, "This is what I should do. There won't be any news about this matter in the short term. Let's first find a way to catch the group of criminals and find Kong Sheng. There must be a result whether he is dead or alive..."

"And that Lu Hui is very scheming. Be careful."

Mo Hua nodded, "Don't worry."

Lu Hui, right...

Mo Hua remembered him silently in her heart.

If you dare to run to Tongxian City to make trouble, don't even think about leaving.
