Chapter 488 I don’t know

Soon, two men came out from the back door of the rice shop, leading a horse.

A fine unicorn colt is worth ten thousand pieces of gold, but the Bai family rice shop only has three of them.

Riding a horse at high speed was not allowed in the city, so after leaving the city gate, Fang and the other man rode away at full speed, and the sky had already become dark.

Wu Jinliang had already caught up with Lao Changtai. The two of them were running side by side in the forest of sedge grass. From time to time, they encountered sedge grass standing in their way. The two of them were moving forward at the same pace, separating and joining forces.

"How many people are there?"

“Only ten have been found so far.”

"You continue to follow." Wu Jinliang said this and suddenly stopped in the woods.

Lao Changtai was puzzled. He looked back while running and saw the other person's figure vaguely disappearing behind the grass.

Based on the direction the murderer escaped, Wu Jinliang silently estimated the speed and distance, then suddenly flipped his palm and released Feng Lin, and the whole person flew into the air again. He still did not fly high, still sticking to the grass, but he made an arc.

It didn't fly very far, and the fluttering scales fell into his palm and were gathered together like sand into a tower.

As he fell into the grass, he fished out a large gourd out of thin air and put it on his back. The mouth of the gourd popped open. He closed his eyes and listened attentively. He first heard the rustling of insects and the evening breeze swaying the grass leaves.

It was already dark outside, and his tall figure seemed a little hazy under the tall grass.

Soon, a faint rustling sound approached.

A masked man with a chain wrapped around his arm, rushing ahead to clear the way, was suddenly startled when he saw a figure in the bushes ahead. He braked urgently and shouted, "Who is it?"

A group of masked men whooshed out from behind stopped one after another.

This group of masked men did not know Wu Jinliang. Huang Yingying, who was being carried on their shoulders and looked frightened, was stunned. If others did not know him, how could he not know Wu Jinliang?

He didn't know why he ran into Wu Jinliang here. If it weren't for the masked man's scolding, he would have suspected that Wu Jinliang was the mastermind behind these masked men.

Although he didn't know whether Wu Jinliang could save him, his first reaction was to call for help. However, he couldn't make a sound or move. He was restrained and could only blink hard, hoping that Wu Jinliang could understand what he meant.

Wu Jinliang remained calm and indifferent as he looked at these people dressed in strange clothes. He counted their number and found that there were exactly ten of them.

Just his calmness made the group of masked men feel a little uneasy.

A group of masked men looked at each other and exchanged glances. They didn't want to leave any survivors, but they didn't know the other party's background and dared not act rashly. They were caught in a dilemma for a while.

Wu Jinliang didn't have time to waste with them. He suddenly waved his sleeves at them and rushed towards them.

Seeing that the other party took the first step, the group of masked men suddenly had no choice but to fight back with their weapons. However, they soon noticed something unusual and felt a sluggish force around them. Then they were stuck and could not even move a finger. They all looked terrified.

Huang Yingying, who was unable to move, didn't feel much difference.

Wu Jinliang rushed over like picking melons from leaves, and knocked down the masked men who could not resist one by one.

Huang Yingying, who fell with the masked man carrying her, was filled with turmoil. Is Xiao Gao so powerful? She didn't even understand how he attacked, but he knocked down a group of people.

Wu Jinliang ignored him for the moment, and took out Fenglin again, shouting into the woods, "It's not suitable to stay here for long, let's go."

So Lao Changtai flashed out from the forest, but he had already masked himself. He didn't know that Wu Jinliang was here to kill all these people, so in order to facilitate his later actions, he did not reveal his true face for the time being.

Lao Changtai gathered the fallen people together, and Wu Jinliang used his wind scales to wrap up the group of people and flew into the air. This time, they did not fly close to the grass, but flew directly into the sky...

When the two rice shop assistants arrived at Zhalanpo on horseback, it was already completely dark, but they still saw three bodies lying in a pool of blood.

The two horse-drawn carriages carrying the spiritual rice were not at the scene. They were frightened when the incident happened and rushed into the woods of heart-wrapped grass on both sides. They were dragged down by the carriages and could not run far. They had calmed down and were eating the heart-wrapped grass on their own.

The rice shop clerk found the two carts based on the noise.

There was nothing much to say. One person stayed at the scene, and the other rode back at full speed on his horse like a gust of wind.

By the time he returned to the main city, it was already dark. He slowed down and jogged when he reached the city gate.

The rapid clattering sound of horses' hooves made Bai Qiru, who was sitting quietly in the shop, feel something was wrong.

As soon as she stood up, she saw the waiter jump off his horse and run in in a panic, reporting in a trembling voice: "Boss, it's bad, Fangzi and his friends are in trouble, they were killed at Zhalan Slope, and there is no trace of Master Huang at the scene."

Bai Qiru's eyes shone and he said coldly, "You stay and look after the shop."

There were no extra clerks in the shop, so she was the one who was looking after it herself.

After she finished speaking, she flashed out, stepped under her skirt, kicked the back of Xi Linju who was blocking the door, flew into the air, found the right direction, and flew away across the sky.

The waiter quickly ran out of the door and watched him go, still with a lingering fear on his face.

"Who is flying in the city without permission?"

When the guards on the city wall saw someone trying to fly directly over, someone shouted and several people flew up to stop him. Bai Qiru's cold voice rang out in the air, "Something happened at home, and I have to make an emergency decision. I will apologize to the city lord later."

After he finished speaking, he didn't care whether the other party agreed or not, and he flashed through the gap in the obstruction.

The guards in the air looked at each other and recognized who it was. Although the other person gave an explanation, they still sent two people to chase after him.

On a pavilion not too far from Bai's Rice Shop, Mei You, behind the window pane, could just see the people coming in and out of the rice shop.

Seeing Bai Qiru rushing out in a hurry, he took out a talisman and sent a message to inquire: What's the situation?

At this time, Wu Jinliang had already arrived at the mountains outside the vast grassland. He found a temporary cave to hide in and used a few sandalwood flames to illuminate the cave.

The masks of the ten masked men had naturally been removed, and Lao Changtai was searching their bodies, trying to find anything that could identify their identities from their personal belongings.

Wu Jinliang knew a lot, and his method of identifying the identity was simple. He directly untied Huang Yingying's mute point and asked, "Do you know them all?"

Huang Yingying gasped when she saw the true faces of the murderers. Her eyes rolled around for a long time, full of doubt and uncertainty. Then she thought of something and glanced at Wu Jinliang and the masked Lao Changtai. Suddenly she shook her head and said, "I don't know them. I've never seen them. I don't know who they are."

The ten masked men showed more or less surprise and were more or less relieved.

However, Lao Changtai searched the ten people and found their official identity badges of Dazhicheng one by one, and threw them at Wu Jinliang's feet one by one.

Wu Jin fiddled with the badge on his toes and took a look at it, then glanced at Huang Yingying and couldn't help but chuckle. He didn't believe that Huang Yingying didn't know any of the official people in Dazhicheng, unless she had deliberately made a fake badge.

He didn't see anything of high quality, but a piece of mother-child talisman that began to emit a faint light caught Wu Jinliang's attention. He picked it up and took a look, then showed the words "What's the situation" on it to the ten masked men sitting against the wall and asked, "Whose is it? There are hidden patterns on it, what's going on? If you can explain it, give me a wink."

However, I didn't get the desired response.

Wu Jinliang chuckled and picked up the dagger he found on the ground. He then grabbed a man and pressed him against the wall of the cave by the back of his head. He inserted the dagger into the wall and strangled the man's neck with force, causing blood to spurt onto the wall of the cave.

He let go and the man fell to the ground, more casually than killing a chicken, which made Huang Yingying shudder with fear.

The same was true for the other nine masked men. Even Lao Changtai couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth under the mask.

Wu Jinliang held up the bloody dagger and asked the next person, "Can you give me the answer I want?"

The man's eyes immediately darted around, he was scared and anxious.

So Wu Jinliang untied his mute point, and the man immediately gasped, "It's Qiu Laosan's, he knows what to do."

"Who is Qiu Laosan?" Wu Jinliang grabbed the man and made him face his eight accomplices for identification.

The man angrily pouted at a strong man.

Wu Jinliang added: "I will only give three people a chance to survive. I hope you will cherish it. Who sent you here?"

The man hesitated for a moment, but finally replied, "Tax Supervisor Mei You."

Wu Jinliang threw him away and untied Qiu Laosan's mute point. He shook the mother-child talisman in his hand and said, "Teach me how to respond."

Qiu Lao San said: "It depends on how you want to respond. Just add the word '米' at the end of the content as a hidden meaning."

Wu Jinliang: "I want to stabilize him first."

This is the truth. He hasn't dealt with things cleanly yet. It would be safer if he could delay the reaction of the mastermind behind the scenes.

Qiu Laosan: "Then just say you have succeeded."

Wu Jinliang didn't care whether it was a trick or not, and immediately responded by casting the spell of the mother and child talisman as he said.

There was soon feedback on the mother-child talisman: Very good, reply soon.

Wu Jinliang put away the mother-child talisman and saw that the dead body had turned into a huge wild boar. He smiled and said to the other masked men, "If you can't prove that what they said is correct, it means that they have earned the right to live. As for you, it seems that there is no need to keep you alive."

He not only talked about it, but also took action. He grabbed another person and pressed him against the wall. He pulled the dagger and blood spurted all over the wall again.

After letting go, he went to grab the next one, only to see that man's eyes were shaking.

Wu Jinliang said "oh" and asked, "Do you have anything to say?"

The man's eyes immediately moved up and down, and his head was almost nodding.

So Wu Jinliang untied his mute point, and the man immediately looked at Huang Yingying and said anxiously: "He is lying, Huang Yingying is lying, he knows us, and has known us for many years."

Huang Yingying's old face immediately turned as bitter as a bitter gourd due to embarrassment. She looked at the dagger in Wu Jinliang's hand that was still dripping with blood, her eyes full of panic.

Wu Jinliang turned his head to look at him and said, "Old Huang, are you lying or is he lying? I think he is lying. I came to save you. How could you lie to me?"
