The system takes the poor cub to find his father
Chapter 473 It has nothing to do with him
In the sky above Mingfu on the outskirts of the city, this usually quiet house was now shrouded in a strange light, which twisted like a nimble snake, and from time to time burst out with strange waves, as if to tear a hole in the night.
This sudden change instantly broke the tranquility of the suburbs, and the birds perched on the branches were startled and flapped their wings, fleeing in panic.
The unusual movement soon alerted the local government. When the mayor of Qingzhou City heard the news, he was overjoyed. In his opinion, such a big scene must mean that a "big fish" has been caught. He thought that if he could solve such a big case, he would definitely be rewarded by the court and his career would be bright.
So, he couldn't wait to lead a team of elite soldiers and hurried towards Mingfu on the outskirts of the city.
When the city lord and his men arrived at Mingfu on the outskirts of the city, they were preparing to surround this suspicious house.
At this moment, the tightly closed door suddenly collapsed with a dull thud and raised a cloud of dust.
Then, a group of well-equipped soldiers rushed out like a tide. These soldiers were wearing black armor, the silver lines on the armor flashed coldly under the dim moonlight, and the sharp blades in their hands were cold and intimidating.
The mayor of Qingzhou City was originally sent from Kyoto, and he was considered a man who had seen the world. But when he saw the familiar equipment of those soldiers, he was suddenly shocked, as if he had been hit by a heavy hammer.
His face turned pale instantly, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and his lips began to tremble slightly.
He realized that he seemed to have caused a big disaster.
Who on earth lived in this house? Why were there imperial guards guarding it? An ominous premonition quickly spread in his heart like a dark cloud.
A terrible thought suddenly flashed through his mind. Everyone in Dayu knew that the current emperor's hometown was Qingzhou City.
Could this be where His Majesty lived before?
Thinking of this possibility, the city lord felt his heartbeat suddenly speed up, as if it was about to jump out of his throat. He began to regret that he came too quickly. At this moment, he hoped that he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Is it too late to withdraw now and pretend that we know nothing?
However, fate did not seem to be willing to give him this opportunity. When he saw the figure slowly walking out from behind the guards, he knew that it was too late.
The man who came out was dressed in a moon-white robe, which fluttered gently in the wind, making him look like a weak scholar, with a bit of elegance. But as the Lord of Qingzhou City who had had a lot of dealings with this imperial envoy in the past half month, he knew very well that this seemingly harmless and weak man in front of him was actually a shrewd "old fox".
Half a month ago, this imperial envoy named Du Jun suddenly came to Qingzhou City, claiming to investigate the traces of the remnants of the Wu clan of the previous dynasty. In the past half month, the city lord has deeply experienced the power of Du Jun. Du Jun is meticulous and ruthless, and no clues can escape his eyes.
"Lord Du, why are you here?" Seeing that there was no escape, the city lord had to bite the bullet and step forward. He forced a smile that was uglier than crying and greeted him.
"I was wondering who it was! It turns out to be the city lord. What are you going to do by mobilizing so many troops?" Du Jun looked at the armed soldiers behind the city lord with sharp eyes, raised his eyebrows slightly, and there was a hint of sarcasm in his tone.
"Oh, this! I received a report from the public that someone here was secretly practicing witchcraft. In order to prevent the public from panicking, I personally brought people to take a look."
The city lord had a righteous look on his face, patting his chest loudly, as if he really came here for the safety of the people. If Ming Yunqi was here, he would probably give him a thumbs up and praise him as a "good official."
"Master Du, what is this..." The city lord said, glancing at the house from the corner of his eye, and asked with pretended curiosity, "If I'm not mistaken, the strange thing just now seemed to come from this house, right?"
"Why, Lord City Lord, do you suspect that I am colluding with the remnants of the witch clan of the previous dynasty?" Du Jun sneered, with a barely perceptible cold light flashing in his eyes. "If you don't believe it, Lord City Lord, you can go in and check it yourself." As he said that, he stepped aside to make room behind him and made a gesture of invitation.
In an instant, the guards on both sides were ready to face a formidable enemy, and quickly put their hands on the knives at their waists. With a "swoosh", the sharp blades were unsheathed, flashing with cold light, and a cold breath rushed towards them. The city lord was startled by this sudden action, and couldn't help shivering all over.
He looked at the wide-open door, which was dark and looked like a monster waiting for him with its bloody mouth. He smiled bitterly in his heart. How could he dare to go in? The guards looked at him as if he was already a dead man.
The city lord subconsciously took a step back and laughed awkwardly, "Ha...ha...
How dare I? Everyone knows that Lord Du is the most fair and selfless. Lord Du, please don't misunderstand me. Since Lord Du is here, I will withdraw first and not delay your work. Lord Du, you are busy! You are busy. "
As he spoke, the city lord waved his hands hurriedly, signaling the people behind him to put away their weapons, and then turned around and left in disgrace.
"Then, Lord, take care." Du Jun looked at the Lord's back as he left. The smile on his face instantly disappeared, replaced by a cold expression and a hint of chill in his eyes. He waved his hand, and a figure appeared behind him silently like a ghost, "Sir!"
"Follow him and see who he contacts." Du Jun ordered in a low voice.
"Yes." After receiving the order, the figure disappeared into the darkness in an instant, as if he had never appeared.
On the roof of the house in the woods outside the house, Wu Yue looked at everything happening below with a worried look.
"Brother, why are there so many soldiers here? Have we been exposed?" His voice trembled a little. He was originally just curious about the person who could cause such a big commotion, but he didn't expect to see such a scene.
Wu Ze was different from Wu Yue. Wu Yue had never seen these guards, but Wu Ze had experienced the tragedy of the destruction of the Wu clan when he was a teenager, and was deeply impressed by the attire of the soldiers who took away their families. These were clearly the guards of Dayu. How did they get here? Wu Ze didn't think that the Emperor of Dayu would come here just to capture them. Obviously, something happened that they didn't know about. Wu Ze's face became very solemn, and he thought to himself, why didn't any news come from Kyoto? Could it be that all their spies in Kyoto were arrested?
At this time, another man with extraordinary temperament walked out of the house. The man's long hair cascaded down like a waterfall, shining softly in the moonlight, and the whole person seemed to exude an extraordinary temperament. Wu Yue looked at the man and couldn't help but stare at him. He felt that the man was somewhat familiar, and an indescribable feeling surged in his heart. "Brother, do you think that man..." Wu Yue just started to speak, but suddenly stopped and swallowed his words. He laughed at himself in his heart, how could he think that man was their master? The master has great magical powers, how can the man in front of him compare with him.
"What's the matter?" Wu Ze was thinking about something, and seeing his brother seemed to be hesitant to speak, he asked.
Wu Yue shook her head and said nothing. Wu Ze was thinking about something important, and didn't pay much attention to Wu Yue's strangeness, so he didn't ask any more questions. At this moment, he knew that this place was no longer safe. Although their appearance was very different from before, there was no guarantee that no one would recognize them.
Wu Ze brought Wu Yue and cast a spell. Their figures flashed in the night like a phantom and left in a hurry. Just after they left, Bai Lian glanced in the direction they left with an unclear expression, and then withdrew his gaze as if nothing had happened, as if everything that had just happened had nothing to do with him.
