Mountain and sea lantern

Chapter 61 Accident
Seeing that the city lord had acquiesced, Wei Bian naturally had no more worries. He waved his hand and went up the stairs. "Let's go, search it again carefully!"

There seemed to be anger in his words.

As the city lord's right-hand man, he repeatedly failed to do things properly. Although the city lord did not blame him for anything, he felt embarrassed.

As soon as people rushed into the inn, he immediately took charge of the situation, directing people here and there, and calling for people to check out any suspicious places, or even checking it out himself.

Hearing the noise downstairs in the inn, Shi Chun, who was lying under the gap in the eaves, was very calm. He stared at Bian Weiying downstairs, as if he had forgotten the impending danger.

Although he could have hidden from the rain, Bian Weiying did not. He stood in the rain with disheveled hair. As the city lord, he managed to get himself soaked. His long hair stuck to his cheeks and shoulders, and it was easy for the wet purple gauze dress to stick to his body if he moved casually. Even the two points on his chest were exposed. Although it could make the body curves more prominent, would it be comfortable?

But this city lord seemed to be calm and enjoying himself. Occasionally, he would raise his head and close his eyes, welcoming the cool raindrops. It was unclear whether he was indulging himself or just wanting to indulge himself.

Shi Chun couldn't describe the feeling of this woman. He had never seen a woman with this feeling, so it made him examine her and confused.

At this moment, he glanced again and saw several figures falling from the sky. Because the eaves blocked the angle, he didn't know where they came from. They landed outside the inn and in front of Bian Weiying. They were all dressed like disciples of Wukang Mountain.

After that, another person in black clothes floated down. From the clothes, it can be known that he is a senior staff of Wukang Mountain. He is a middle-aged man with three strands of black-ink beard. Although he looks not young, he looks quite handsome, with fair skin, bright eyes and extraordinary bearing.

There was a commotion among the onlookers. Those who knew the person knew who the newcomer was. It was Xia Fuli, one of the contemporary elders of Wukang Mountain.

Shi Chun, who was watching carefully, suddenly heard a noise behind him. He turned around and saw that it was Wu Jinliang, who had also poked open the ceiling and came up.

There was no other way. The noise of people shouting for another search was too obvious. Wu Jinliang could no longer hold back and came to see what was going on. He leaned in and whispered, "Chuntian, what's going on?"

Shi Chunlue shook his head, staring at the movement below, and didn't bother to reply to him.

"Elder Xia."

All the disciples of Wukang Mountain present had already bowed to greet him, including Bian Weiying.

After paying his respects, Bian Weiying was somewhat surprised and asked, "Elder, why are you here in person so late at night?"

Xia Fuli stared at Bian Weiying for a while, and frowned slightly when he saw her unbecoming appearance. He then turned back to look at the inn that seemed to be targeted, and said, "I was taking people down the mountain for inspection, and happened to pass by here. I saw some movement, so I came to take a look. It turned out to be you. What are you doing with such a large force?"

Hearing the words 'just happened to pass by here', Shi Chun couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. After listening, his eyes flickered, and then he smiled knowingly and whispered: "I said I wouldn't sit idly by. It turned out to be the elder. No wonder, it seems that a big fish has been forced out. We have a big harvest this time!"

"Huh?" Wu Jinliang looked at him in confusion, then he seemed to suddenly realize and understand.

Below, Bian Weiying was reporting the incident to Elder Xia.

Shi Chun didn't have time to listen carefully. He reached out and patted Wu Jinliang's lower back. "It's too late. I'll go change my clothes first and wait."

After saying this, he quickly stepped back and went down from the ceiling again.

Wu Jinliang was completely confused after hearing this, but he knew that Chuntian must have a reason for saying that, so he had to continue lying there waiting, while continuing to stare at the movements below.

After listening to Bian Weiying's report, Xia Fuli said, "Since you can prove it was self-defense, stop it. Why make such a big fuss? Look at yourself."

Bian Weiying smiled and said, "Elder, there are rules for everything. According to the rules, we still have to bring the person in for questioning. Only after the questioning is clear can the matter be resolved. The inn couldn't find the person, so we had to look for him ourselves. We didn't mean to disturb anyone."

She brought up the rules and said this. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Xia Fuli couldn't say anything. He turned around and looked at the inn. He had no intention of leaving. Instead, he asked curiously, "He was in the inn, and suddenly disappeared?"

Bian Weiying said respectfully: "Maybe he left, maybe he hid somewhere. If Wei Bian and the others still can't find him, it's a good opportunity for the elders to come. When they come out, I'm afraid they will have to ask the elders to show their magical powers."

Those who understand naturally understand. This Elder Xia has already reached the level of a human immortal. Although he is only at the initial stage of minor success, he is still incomparable to ordinary people at the scene. If he casts a spell to investigate, it will be difficult to hide people within a certain range.

Xia Fuli nodded lightly, which was considered as his agreement.

Shi Chun also moved quickly, and climbed up to the roof again, crawled to Wu Jinliang, and asked, "How is it?"

Wu Kangshan took off his clothes and changed back into his own clothes.

"I'm afraid we can't hide anymore. Bian Weiying wants to ask Elder Xia to use his magical powers to search for us..." Wu Jinliang explained the situation in a low voice.

Shi Chun didn't take this seriously. "We don't need him. The one with the scar on his palm can find us out. It's too late. We have to show up. Even if we find the body, Elder Xia can't save us."

Wu Jinliang: "You're not going to break through the wall and run away?"

Shi Chun: "That was a last resort. It's not worth it now. Show yourself."

Wu Jinliang stretched out his index finger and pressed against the tile above. Seeing that Shi Chun did not object, he grinned and poked it with his finger cleanly and neatly.

With a loud bang, several tiles fell off the eaves and shattered on the ground. Fortunately, the bystanders downstairs had been cleared away.

Countless eyes quickly turned to the place where the roof tiles had fallen off.

Xia Fuli waved his sleeves, and a huge force from the air instantly overturned a large section of the roof at the target location, and the scene was shattered to pieces.

He had just been blaming Bian Weiying and the others for making a big noise, but when it came to him, he didn't care how big the noise was. No matter whose house it was, he would tear it down without even saying a word.

Shi Chun and Wu Jin looked at each other, feeling the rain on their faces. They didn't expect to be exposed so easily. There was nothing to hide, so they got up one after another.

It was indeed those two guys. Feng Chi, who was watching from the rooftop diagonally opposite, was speechless. They just hid there, but they didn’t find it?

Even she wanted to ask what the group of people searching Wukang Mountain were doing.

Wei Bian, who was searching downstairs, heard the noise upstairs and quickly flew to the top floor. He smashed the ceiling with one palm, broke through the roof, and landed on the roof ridge. With a glance, he locked onto the two people who stood up.

His eyes instantly showed murderous intent, and he grasped the hilt of the sword and pulled it out, but then he paused and saw Xia Fuli rising into the air and floating in the air.

When Wei Bian appeared with a bang, Shi Chun also turned his head and stared at him. When their eyes met, he saw the murderous intent in the other's eyes, and also saw the sharp edge of the sword that was obviously pulled out. However, because of the appearance of Elder Xia, this man was obviously unwilling and slowly pressed the half of the sharp edge back into the scabbard.

This situation and this scene made Shi Chun secretly frightened, and there was also a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.

Everyone below also flew onto the roof and saw Shi Chun and the other two hiding there. In surprise, Bian Weiying quickly swept his cold eyes towards Wei Bian.

Wei Bian felt ashamed because he understood the meaning, and turned his head to stare at the group of search personnel who came out of the building.

They are not fools, so they naturally know what he means. The group of searchers were really hesitant to speak, wanting to explain but not knowing how. They were sure that they had searched this place before and really didn't find anyone.

So the few people who were responsible for searching the ceiling became the focus of others' attention.

Many people jumped onto the roofs of nearby houses to watch the fun.

Xia Fuli, who was floating in the air, was at the same level as the eaves. He took a step and stood on the roof. He stared at Shi Chun and asked, "Are they the two?"

"It's them." Bian Weiying confirmed and nodded slightly to Shi Chun, as if to say, "We are old acquaintances, don't panic." "Brother Chun, I have heard about what happened. It shouldn't be a big problem. Just follow the usual procedure and come with us. We just need to explain everything clearly."

Shi Chun's body was very dirty. He had rolled on the ground while killing people in the rain, and had crawled in the dust on the ceiling, so he was not just dirty as usual. However, he still smiled politely, "Okay."

He threw the knife in his hand down casually, "Boss, keep the knife for me!"

With a swish, the knife fell to the ground and bounced.

"Boss, this is mine too." Wu Jinliang also shouted.

But some things are hard to learn, and the knife he threw down would just ruin the situation.

Bang! With a loud bang, the bluestone road surface was smashed into pieces, and several intact stone slabs were destroyed.

Many people's eyes fell on Wu Jinliang, as if they were looking at something, including the sloppy old man under the eaves across the street.

Wu Jinliang seemed a little embarrassed and felt uncomfortable being stared at by everyone. When he saw Shi Chun jump down, he quickly followed suit.

The people from Wu Kangshan also flew downstairs one after another.

Shi Chun looked up and saw where Wei Bian was. He pretended to take two casual steps and just got closer.

Wei Bian, who had landed, glanced coldly at the dirty but polite guy in front of him and shouted, "Take him away!"

There was disgust in his eyes and he turned away.

Just as the two men passed each other, Shi Chun, with his hands folded in front of his abdomen in a humble manner, drew out a ray of cold light from his sleeve. Although it was so swift and unexpected, it was so unhurried that it gave people a feeling of lightness, and it stabbed Wei Bian steadily in the back of his heart.

The knife was used without any foul language, and stabbed into the heart cleanly and neatly.

Wei Bian stopped and stared, then his whole body trembled. He wanted to turn around, but he felt his blood rushing. He suspected something but didn't dare to believe it.

Some people saw it, some didn’t, and then everyone saw it one after another.

What was going on? Even though they saw it, they didn't understand it for a moment, and some even thought they had seen it wrong.

Soon, everyone reacted.

Bian Weiying, who was soaking wet, was stunned and rarely lost his composure.

The sloppy old man under the eaves was dumbfounded.

Feng Chi, who was staring from the rooftop, was stunned. The skinny man in green asked, "What is he doing?"

Xia Fuli, who was floating down, widened his eyes and lost his composure.

Most of the people in Wukangshan were shocked. It was really unexpected.

Those who were just watching the fun were so surprised that they couldn't believe it.

Not to mention them, even Wu Jinliang was frightened silly on the spot. He really wanted to ask Chuntian whether he was crazy or wanted to die.
