Chapter 15
Shen Hao returned to Licheng that night, and there were ordinary soldiers from ten garrisons.
I found the general bannerman Chen Tianwen in the garrison. I didn't know what I said while closing the door. Then I turned back to Wuyang City overnight.
However, familiar people will find that the ten soldiers from the guard station he brought with him seemed to have changed their faces.
......
The fifth day after the Qi family's family extermination incident.
Shen Hao didn't go anywhere, so he stayed in the temporary resting room he found in Qi Mansion. He sat cross-legged on the bed, closed his eyes, and was studying today's homework.
Shen Hao never dared to neglect his cultivation. This is his capital to settle down in this world. If he wants to continue climbing up in Xuanqingwei, he cannot do without the word "cultivation". Even these two words are as important to Shen Hao at this stage as his ability to solve cases.
So no matter how busy it is, Shen Hao will squeeze out at least an hour every day to meditate and refine Qi. These four words are iron laws for monks, and no one can avoid them.
But today, Shen Hao felt very different.
"This... why is the true energy harvested by one Zhou Tian so much stronger?!"
"Why does a heat wave come when the true qi reaches the meridians of the chest, and it can actually make the true qi in the meridians several times?"
"What's going on?!"
The increase in the true qi after every cycle of circulation in the body is more than three times higher than before!
You should know that the technique Shen Hao practiced is called "The Great Five Elements True Qi Talisman". Although the name sounds very powerful, it is actually just a very ordinary yellow-level martial art. Being able to practice to the sixth level of Qi within eight years is considered a talent, but this has never happened in this situation.
After repeated experience for more than half an hour, Shen Hao made a discovery.
All true qi is strengthened by a sudden wave of heat coming out of the meridians in the chest, just like a transformation of energy.
This made Shen Hao think of the strange tattoo on his chest. Because the strange heat wave that can enhance true qi is obviously the meridians that penetrate from this tattoo.
"This tattoo is strange and inexplicable, but it has been eight years on me, so why is it only revealed now?"
"If something goes wrong, there will be a demon! But nothing unusual has happened recently... Wait, can you!"
Shen Hao felt a sudden heart. How could he forget the strange and dangerous scene last night? He swallowed an evil core at that time!
Could it be that it is because of the ability to activate the tattoo after swallowing an evil core that has become the current appearance?
It sounds mysterious, but this is the biggest possibility that Shen Hao can think of now.
"Thinking of this, I swallowed the evil core by a devil yesterday, and it is very likely that it was the tattoo that hit the ghost!" Shen Hao recalled that before he swallowed the evil core, he had inexplicably heated his chest before he exhaled it, and then he had a strong sense of "hunger" and then swallowed the evil core. Now the true energy was also inexplicably strengthened when Zhou Tian passed through his chest. It is hard to say that there is no connection between the two.
However, if you want to prove whether your guess is right, Shen Hao has no choice yet.
Fortunately, the increase in true energy has soared by three times, which is a good thing for Shen Hao, but I don’t know if there will be any hidden dangers.
At this time, Shen Hao was both excited and a little nervous.
If you can't figure it out, don't think about it. Then take one step at a time. Shen Hao suppressed the anxiety in his heart and started to activate his true qi again. The increase rate of his true qi three times that of the previous speed of increase in his true qi made him feel like he was living in a dream, light and fluttering.
......
After that, Shen Hao stayed in Qi Mansion for two consecutive days and didn't go anywhere. He was in the house except for eating, drinking, defecation and urination, and seemed to be depressed because the case was in a deadlock.
On the third day of April, there are three days left before Chen Tianwen gave Shen Hao. However, Wuyang City has been dug three feet into the ground by the manic Xuanqing Guards and the garrison soldiers, and no news about Xiao Chongliu was found, and there was no Zhuzi around the city.
"Go out and look for it! If you don't have thirty miles, you will expand the range to sixty miles! I don't believe that you can't find anyone!"
Shen Hao's roar was always heard in the Qi Mansion, especially at night, which could be heard far away. Every time it made the Xuanqing Guards in Wuyang City tremble, and even the garrison soldiers in Wuyang City were in trouble.
......
By the fourth day of the fourth month, Shen Hao finally showed his face, his face was pale and his brows were furious. It was obvious that he was too tight and his complexion was extremely poor.
Shen Hao went directly to Wuyangcheng Yamen this time to coordinate the issue of the garrison troops being drawn. He wanted to mobilize 70% of the garrison troops to help Xuan Qingwei continue to expand the scope of search and circumvention.
Although I don’t know what happened in the yamen, from Shen Hao’s face after he came out, it can be seen that his request should not have been accepted by the yamen.
After all, the 70% garrison troops were drawn from the post in non-war period, which exceeded the bottom line of the garrison yamen. Even if they were facing Xuan Qingwei, they would not dare to agree easily. Unless there was a direct talisman order from the Licheng Guard, they would not dare to draw 70% of their troops to be ordered to Shen Hao if they were killed.
Maybe he was so angry, maybe he was so angry that he was so angry that he returned to the gate of Qi Mansion, Shen Hao, who was cursing all the way, immediately ordered Wang Jian to lead all Xuanqing guards to continue to expand the search scope, even if the garrison did not agree to send additional personnel to assist.
"I don't care! Now that Wuyang City has been dug three feet into the ground, then go 60 miles outside the city! I don't believe that there are no clues! What station is it? You don't care, how dare the thief come again?"
Despite Wang Jian's opposition, Shen Hao sent all the strong men left behind in the Qi Mansion, leaving only ten ordinary soldiers as guards.
It's very stance of gamble.
That night, Shen Hao was staying in the house and seemed to be meditating. There were only ten soldiers patrolling around him, which was much quieter than before.
Suddenly, a dark shadow rose from the ground at the corner of a wall, where the moonlight could not shine, and it rose more than ten feet high. It looked like it had hands and feet or human shapes. A pair of scarlet eyes on the mind looked hideous.
The huge dark figure walked close to the ground, at a very fast speed, and fled along the wall and into the front yard atrium.
The atrium should have been guarded by Xuanqing Guards, but now it has been drained by Shen Hao during the day. At midnight, the remaining ten soldiers were patrolling the night, and there was no light and dark whistle in the entire atrium.
"hiss!"
The black shadow screamed in a low voice, as if he was proud, and then followed the wall to the edge of a large water tank in the right corner of the atrium.
The water tank is always used to prevent water from being removed. It is fed with koi decorations on weekdays. However, the black shadow stretched out three claws and hugged the water tank and rotated it hard.
Three circles on the left, one circle on the right, another half circle on the left, and another five circles on the right.
"Click!"
A sound of machine-stopping sound, a mana fluctuation flashed from the bottom of the water tank, and then a three-foot-square blue box appeared out of thin air in the water tank, floating on the water surface, as if tearing a layer of space and drilling out.
Just as the black shadow wanted to reach for the box, a joking sneer suddenly rang in the darkness on the right corner.
"Tsk tsk, it turns out it is an air-breaking array, and it is still hidden in the water. No wonder I haven't found it after searching for several days."
Chapter completed!
