The importance of cannon fodder

Chapter 373 Commander (44)

He looked up and out the window, but nothing happened.

"My lord, waiting like this is not an option. Maybe we should take a look around here, maybe something will happen." Xun Fang couldn't hold back anymore, he stood up and said to Qiu Qing.

"Wait a little longer," Qiu Qing's back was as straight as a pine tree, he sat by the window calmly, picked up the wine glass, and took a sip.

Qiu Qing didn't agree, so Fang Xun had no choice but to sit down.

It was already dark outside the window, but nothing happened.

Since there were really no guests, Xiao Er had no choice but to clean up the tables early. Although no one had used these tables today, this did not prevent him from wiping them every day.

Xiao Er wiped the tables and chairs carefully with the towel on his shoulders. He wiped very meticulously, and hardly spared any dead corners.

Shen Lian smelled a trace of demon energy, which was very weak, but it still existed. He turned around and saw Xiao Er was wiping the table.

The devilish energy seemed to come from him.

However, Shen Lian didn't see anything unusual about this little girl.

His eyes stopped on Xiao Er's movement of wiping the table.

"Little Er." Shen Lian stopped the Xiao Er.

"Hey, guest officer, what's the matter." Xiao Er stopped what he was doing.

"Do you clean the tables and chairs every day?" Shen Lian asked lightly.

"That's right, the tables and chairs in our Tianxiang Building are wiped clean every day." That Xiaoer didn't expect that a rich man like Shen Lian would ask this question.

"En." Shen Lian nodded.

He withdrew his gaze, lost in thought.

That magic energy came from the towel.

And this towel must have wiped the table that He Er touched yesterday.

Therefore, the magic energy came from He Er, and it has nothing to do with Tianxianglou.

As for why accidents happened near the Tianxiang Tower, there must be something wrong with it. However, the Tianxiang Tower diverted everyone's attention, making everyone mistakenly think that it was the Tianxiang Tower that had the problem.

So, where is it?
Shen Lian recalled last night.

After he walked out with the full-fledged Nine Demons in his arms, He Er followed him.

At that time, Shen Lian didn't notice anything unusual.

She thought he was just a drunk, and as for why she followed them, Shen Lian just mistook him for being drunk.

At that time, he got rid of him very easily.

But now that I think about it again, it wasn't him who He Er followed?
Or, someone else.

He investigated He Er's life experience.

He Er is a local butcher who has been selling pork for several years. However, recently, because the pigs were sick, the pork could not be sold, and the pork stall had to be closed.

And his son He Xiaoguai also fell ill recently, and he spent a lot of money to see the doctor and buy medicine.

Therefore, He Er's hands are a little tight, and he came out to drink because of too much pressure.

Therefore, almost the same as what Jiu Yao inferred, He Er must have become greedy when he saw them.

But this morning, Xiao Er said that the white jade pendant belonged to him.

Xiao Er didn't look like he was lying, that is, Xiao Er saw that "he" was wearing a white jade pendant.

Shen Lian deduced that someone might have impersonated him.

Then he seduced He Er.

When He Er died, he was holding the white jade pendant tightly in his hand, perhaps it was because of the greed aroused by this jade pendant.

This devil is very cunning and knows how to find those in need first, and then lure them to commit crimes with money.

Jiu Yao didn't sleep well, and the big brother didn't have any extra flesh on his body, so he slept on his pillow, he was stiff.

So she woke up very quickly.

"Awake." Shen Lian felt Jiu Yao move in his arms, so she asked.

"Well, big brother, is there anything new?" Jiu Yao rubbed his eyes and asked.

"Not yet." Shen Lian shook her head.

At this time, a man in his 30s in ordinary clothes slowly walked into Tianxiang Tower.

His brows were tightly furrowed, and it could be seen that he seemed to have encountered something difficult.

When Shen Lian saw the man's expression, if she guessed correctly, this man should be the prey of the devil.

And the devilish energy on Xiao Er's body must be the devilish energy left on He Er by the devil.

So, all he needs to do now is to stand still.

Or, just like yesterday, when he was half drunk, he walked past him.

Shen Lian is wearing some jade, and Shen Lian looks more refined and fair, making people think that this is a weak rich kid from some family, who looks very easy to be robbed, and behind him, there is There was no guard, and there was only a little boy beside him, walking in front of the man like a mobile wallet.

Shen Lian watched him drink several jugs of wine, he hiccupped and his face turned red.

It seems that he is almost drunk.

Shen Lian hugged Jiu Yao, "Nine Yao, how about we go catch the devil?"

"Big brother, do you know where the devil is?" Jiu Yao blinked. Could it be that she missed something after she fell asleep?
"I don't know for now." Shen Lian shook her head, and slowly walked past the man with Jiu Yao in her arms.

"My lord, your god is gone." Fang Xun saw Shen Lian leaving, and wanted to follow him. After waiting for so long, he found nothing.

"Wait a little longer." Qiu Qing directly pressed Fang Xun's hand that picked up the bamboo hat this time.

"?" Fang Xun was puzzled, but he still listened to Qiu Qing's words.

Although he didn't quite understand, he still sat down.

Shen Lian hugged Jiu Yao and left, at first the speed was very slow.

He walked slowly with Jiu Yao in his arms.

Sure enough, the man who was seventy percent drunk followed out.

After being followed by him for a while, Shen Lian speeded up, restrained her breath, and hid quietly.

He looked over from the back of the alley, and the drunk man was lost in confusion because he had lost track of him.

At this moment, Shen Lian felt the magic energy.

But there is still no way to tell where this devilish energy comes from.

Shen Lian closed her eyes.

His spiritual sense swept across the ten li radius.

"found it."

Shen Lian opened his eyes towards a certain direction, and in Shen Lian's sight, the black air that emerged slowly gathered to form a man in white.

When I looked closely at his appearance, it turned out to be exactly the same as Shen Lian's appearance after disguise.

"Big brother, it's the devil."

"En." Shen Lian nodded.

The white jade pendant that Xiao Er held in the morning also appeared on the man's waist at this time.

As if doing it all over again, the drunken man was passing by the white-clothed man made of devilish energy.

He violently pushed the man to the ground, and said viciously: "Call out all the money on your body."

"Forgive me, my lord, forgive me." The man in white said as if he was extremely frightened.
