Han Yan stood up when he heard this, widened his eyes and said: "Impossible! How is it possible? This is a file of Fucheng. It is protected by a magic circle on weekdays. Only dedicated personnel can touch it. How could it be changed?"

"Look at this volume. Is the seal a little loose?" Li Yu threw a file to Han Yan and said, "This one is the most obvious."

Han Yan flipped through the files, his face suddenly turned ugly.

The packaging requirements for the dossier are extremely strict. They are arranged into volumes and sealed tightly with special silk threads. There should never be any looseness, and this dossier is obviously missing a part.

"I'm going to find the chief clerk!" Feeling fooled, Han Yan turned around and walked out.

"Shh-"

Li Yu pulled him and made a silent gesture, and said softly: "It's useless. If you go, you will only alert the enemy. Besides, for such a trivial matter, the chief clerk can just pretend to be confused or punish the responsible clerk."

"It doesn't have to be so troublesome!"

Han Yan said bitterly: "The chief clerk is not very strong, so we caught him. Brother Li, just use the mental acupuncture, so you are not afraid that he will not tell the truth!"

"The chief clerk may not be the black hand. He just exchanged greetings with us. Apart from asking about the purpose of his visit, he didn't do any testing. If we make a mistake, the real black hand may escape." Li Yu pulled Han Yan back Seat Road.

"Then what should we do? We can't wait for the black hand to jump out on his own, right?" Han Yan frowned and sat back on the chair.

"Just let him jump out on his own." Li Yu said, rubbing the slight stubble on his chin. After rushing for two consecutive days, Li Yu had no time to take care of himself, and his appearance looked a bit weathered.

"Just cooperate with me and deal with it later." Li Yu's eyes showed a stern look.

……

At night, at Yongzhou Station, the tired Li Yu and Han Yan fell asleep early.

Suddenly, there was a slight knocking sound at the gate. After a while, the door gate jumped open, and a masked man poked at the crack in the door and slipped in quietly.

Both the people in the house and the messengers were sleeping soundly, and the masked man seemed not to be afraid of waking them up, and directly lit the candles in the room.

The masked man used the firelight to check the sleeping man and the spirit again. Seeing that they were still motionless, he became bolder. He took out a dagger and a rope and seemed to tie up Li Yu and the two, but suddenly he caught a glimpse of several books on the table next to him.

The masked man's eyes lit up, he put the rope in his arms, walked to the books and looked through them, it was those four volumes.

After hesitating for a moment, the masked man finally wrapped the files in a piece of black cloth and took them with him, then turned off the lights in the room and left.

Hearing the sound of the door closing, Li Yu and Han Yan opened their eyes at the same time. They stood up, nodded to each other, waited for a while, and then followed out.

It turns out that the two of them were just pretending to sleep.

Previously, Li Yu and Han Yan went to find the chief registrar with great fanfare, deliberately showing their joy, and said they would borrow the files and study them all night. However, since the files could not be taken away, the two of them and the chief secretary had to compromise with each other and could only rest in the nearby post house.

The performance of the two people must have lured Yu'er. They found anesthetic in the wine for dinner, so they pretended to drink the wine and went back to rest early. As expected, they waited for the masked man in the middle of the night.

It was quiet in the inn, and the two night watchmen at the door had dozed off. They didn't know if they had been tricked by the masked man.

The two followed the masked man's scent all the way to the foot of the mountain. At the foot of the mountain is a river, which is a tributary of the Nulan River among the three rivers, but it also has rolling water and is deep and wide.

This place is deserted, with few people around during the day, and in the middle of the night, it is a place haunted by lonely souls and wild ghosts.

The masked man stood on a large stone that had been washed smooth and round by the river. After carefully checking around for no one, he took out a bamboo whistle from his arms and blew it.

The whine of the whistle was like the cry of a ghost, making this cold night and desolate place even more eerie.

Li Yu and Han Yan carefully hid in the nearby grass with their spirit. The other party was obviously trying to communicate. A key figure would probably appear, but they didn't know if they were the real masterminds behind the scenes.

Han Yan looked a little excited. He probably didn't expect that things would progress so much on his first night in Yongzhou. Now he was eager to find out the truth about Li Daxiong's death.

Soon, three night owl calls were heard in the distance, and then a dark boat with a dark lantern slowly appeared in the field of vision.

It was a awning boat. There was no one on it rocking the oars and steering the boat, but it was moving steadily in the fast-flowing river, as if there was an invisible force pushing it forward.

Soon the boat sailed near the big rock and stopped steadily in the rushing river.

The masked man hurriedly bowed and said humbly: "Your Excellency, I have brought what you want." As he said this, the masked man took off the package behind him and threw it to the awning boat.

There was a force on the ship dragging the package slowly into the cabin, but a harsh and hoarse voice came out. "Thank you! So many?"

"Your Excellency, you will know when you go back and take a look?" the masked man said very humbly.

"Well, you did a good job." The hoarse voice sounded again, "You can go back!"

"Yes, Your Excellency." Just as the masked man was about to leave, he felt a pain in the back of his neck and fainted immediately.

Li Yu put the masked man down on the boulder and then looked at Han Yan on the other side.

I saw Han Yan and Huo'er merging, a pair of fire wings igniting blazing flames, drawing a beautiful arc of flames in the night sky, and rushing straight to the awning boat.

The roof of the awning boat was split open by Han Yan with a knife, and in an instant, a black shadow inside was thrown into the river.

Li Yu was shocked to see it from the side. Although it was only for a moment, he could see clearly under Han Yan's fire wings. The black shadow was as thin and dry as a severely malnourished child. The black clothes were like a cloth wrapped around his body. The exposed skin color is also dark.

What is this stuff? Spirit or human?

Han Yan on the boat didn't think so much. When he saw the black shadow trying to run away, he was well prepared to turn a fire wing into a flaming rope and wrap it around the black shadow's legs.

The black shadow actually turned over in mid-air and narrowly avoided the flame rope. He was about to fall into the river, but unexpectedly, his legs tightened and he was hanging upside down above the river, with less than half of his body buried in the water.

It turns out that Han Yan's fire wings were transformed by Huo'er. Although the combined Huo'er's consciousness has fallen asleep, he still has some autonomous consciousness. After Han Yan's brain gives orders, he can independently complete some relatively simple things, such as Tracking changes of direction midway.

"Come up here for me!"

Han Yan pulled hard to pull the black shadow back to the ship, but unexpectedly, there was a sudden light on the flame rope and he actually brought a component back.
