My messenger is a little fox

Chapter 217 Tracking

When Li Yu arrived, Hou Jinyun was sitting on the railing of Du Gong Bridge in a daze, covered in blood and his clothes were in tatters. There is a big hole in the middle of the Yinma River, and the water has already surged up. The large ice truck and the pangolin-like monster had long since disappeared, and even the carriage on the roadside had disappeared.

"Are you okay?" Li Yu jumped up to the bridge to greet Jin Yun.

"It's okay! I was just wondering how there could be such a cruel person in this world. I just caught him and blew himself up before I could question him." Hou Jinyun was obviously still frightened, "There was a more violent explosion before. You Did you meet him too? Are you okay?"

"There are snowflakes in the center of the six-pointed star. That is the mark of a dead man worshiping the pillar." Li Yu said casually.

"So you've figured out the identities of these people!" Hou Jinyun looked up in surprise, "I'm still worried about how to find new clues."

"Let's go! The explosion was too loud, and police officers will come to inspect it soon. I don't want to be invited to drink tea yet." Li Yu shrugged, "The carriage is rented and needs to be found."

"It's just a broken carriage, why go to all the trouble? At worst, I don't need the deposit." Hou Jinyun stood up and said in surprise.

"The key is all my net worth." Li Yu said with a bitter smile. Before leaving the Dangping Temple, he left almost all his savings to Asakura Nako. The money given to the victims was the remuneration he earned as a guard on the ship. Now he also uses It's almost done.

"Also, if we leave like this, the government will also find the carriage. Then they can still find me through the carriage shop. It will be much more troublesome than finding a carriage at that time."

"Brother Li, I didn't expect you to be so miserable?" Hou Jinyun swept away the previous depression and laughed strangely: "Brother, I am also short of money. I originally thought about rubbing you in the past few days, but I feel so miserable when I hear how miserable you are. Sorry, haha!"

"Screw you! I still have the money to pay for a few meals! Follow me quickly to find the carriage. If you can't find me, I'll have to take advantage of you!" Li Yu also laughed.

"Okay!" After saying that, Hou Jinlin quickly changed into a clean coat and released the dragon-headed chibi beast. This big guy has gained a lot of weight. He seems to know Li Yu and Ah Li, and he gets in front of them as soon as they meet.

"This guy even knows us! He's quite enthusiastic!" Li Yu said with a smile, stroking the dragon's head. Ahri also patted its head gently with its small paws to show friendship.

Only Hou Jinyun covered his face and smiled bitterly: "Brother Li, this guy is looking for you to eat! Do you have anything to eat? It's better to be meat!"

"..."

Li Yu and Ah Li's hands and claws were hanging in the air, and they laughed awkwardly, "Brother, your spirit is really unique!" After saying that, they took out a roast chicken prepared for Ah Li and handed it to the mouth of the dragon-headed beast. The edge was bitten by him, and he chewed it.

After eating the roasted chicken, the dragon-headed chi beast shook its head with satisfaction, and immediately turned into a puppy and surrounded Li Yu and Ah Li, rubbing its head and wagging its tail to please them.

"What an image I have!" Hou Jinyun smiled as if he was crying, "To be honest, the reason why my pocket is cleaner than my face is because of this guy!"

As he said that, he pulled the dragon-headed chili beast and jumped on it and said, "You foodie, it's time to get to work!"

The dragon-headed beast was obviously unhappy. It turned around and snorted at Hou Jinyun on its back, but Hou Jinyun slapped him down.

"Brother Li, come up, let's chase the carriage!"

……

The two rested at an inn in the town that night. This night also made Li Yu fully aware of the dragon-headed beast's appetite - it ate half a pig. This was because Hou Jinyun knew about Li Yu's pocket. He was not well off and stopped him in advance, otherwise according to Hou Jinyun, this whole pig would only be enough for the foodie to be 80% full.

Therefore, the first thing the two of them did when they got up early the next morning was to go back to Huwei City to return the carriage, otherwise Li Yu would not dare to say that he would treat Hou Jinyun to dinner.

After taking the deposit and having breakfast, the two of them found the Zhuzhu Chamber of Commerce while making inquiries. This chamber of commerce was run by the people of Baizhu, occupying an entire five-story building, and the products sold inside were basically products produced in the country of Baizhu.

The Baizhu Kingdom was the most powerful country in the northern part of the Jin Empire. There were two emperors in the country, and kings in their fifties and sixties. He once united several northern countries to provoke the Jin Dynasty, but was beaten violently by the Jin Dynasty. He has been respectful to the Jin Dynasty for the next twenty or thirty years.

It wasn't until the news that both sides suffered losses in the battle between good and evil came through that the ambitions of the Baizhu Kingdom were ready to move again. In the past two years, they had sent people from time to time to spy on the truth at the border and within Dajin.

The products of Baizhu Country are very rich, and many people come here to purchase them. Only the lower two floors of the Baizhu Chamber of Commerce are open to retail investors. Li Yu and Li Yu pretended to be ordinary people and walked around on the first and second floors twice, but they didn't notice anything special about the expressions of the chamber's clerks and shopkeepers. It seemed that what happened last night had nothing to do with them. .

The two bought some goods and chatted with the shopkeeper. Seeing that the two of them bought a lot of things, the shopkeeper thought they wanted to talk about the price, so they started chatting without thinking too much.

The three of them chatted for a while, and then Li Yu suddenly asked the shopkeeper: "Did the shopkeeper hear the explosion last night? It seemed to be coming from outside the city?"

Hearing this, the shopkeeper sighed and said: "Such things happen from time to time. Maybe it's some immortal master who is fighting. It has nothing to do with us ordinary people. During dinner in the morning, I heard from the policeman next to me that a house over Du Gong Bridge was blown up. No, Editian! It’s too dangerous outside the city. Fortunately, our whole family moved to the city a few years ago, otherwise we would have to be worried for days!"

"Can those detectives tell me what happened there?" Hou Jinyun then asked.

"What can those group of catchers know? The entire county government is only good at catching the head catcher. The rest is not a mess. When in danger, he wants to run faster than a rabbit." The shopkeeper said scornfully.

It seemed that the shopkeeper didn't know what happened last night, so Li Yu simply gave him some harsh words and pretended to sigh: "The policemen who come here are really just a bunch of drunkards. Not long ago, my second aunt's teenage son I reported him missing to the government, but I still haven’t heard from him yet. My second aunt and his wife have been crying all day long, and their home is almost in ruins. I don’t know who could have done such an inhumane thing? "

As expected, the shopkeeper's expression was a little unnatural, but he immediately changed his expression to an angry one and said, "That's right, what else can those police officers in Huwei City do besides asking for cards and bullying their own people? You reported the case, and you still want I added a lot of money to these bastards for nothing, and in the end I didn’t even give you any news!”

Hou Jinyun sighed appropriately and said: "Sigh - we also know that those agents are unreliable. Fortunately, we both know a master with strong magic power. We went to ask for his help some time ago. It is said that we already have a clue. , why don’t we come here to buy some goods to offer to the master.”

The shopkeeper raised his brows slightly, then immediately changed to an expression of admiration and said: "I think you two bought these many goods for this reason, I admire you. You two will drink some tea here first, and I will go to see you later." The shopkeeper will definitely give you two gentlemen a suitable price."

After that, he called a waiter to entertain Li Yu and the two of them to drink tea and wait.
