Chapter 54: Wind and Rain in the City
In the early morning, the rising sun rises, and the summer sky is always bright early.
"Master is not good." A man who looked like a housekeeper rolled and crawled into the yard.
Wei Yiqing, who was talking to Zi Dong in the yard, shouted unhappily: "Why are you so panicked?"
"Master, on the door, on the door..." The butler seemed to run away a little anxiously, and he was choked at half of his words and could not vomit.
Seeing this, Zi Donglai stepped forward and gently patted the butler on the shoulder.
The butler's body shook, the stuffiness in his chest suddenly dissipated, and his breathing became smooth.
"Master, someone has painted a blood bat on the gate."
"What!"
Hula!
When Wei Yiqing exclaimed, Zi Donglai had turned into a strong wind and disappeared into the yard. After a while, he returned with a serious expression and looked at Wei Yiqing and said, "Master Wei, it is indeed the mark of the Blood Bat Demon. It seems that this owl is targeting you, you will not let go."
Wei Yiqing calmed down and waved his hand and said disrespectfully: "It's a situation that will never end. Does this blood bat demon think that if he draws such a mark, he can scare me?"
Zi Donglai felt that it was not that simple. He said: "The mark of this blood bat demon general was extremely drawn, probably just to make people see it, perhaps to cause panic among the people of Taizhou City. If some people are killed and the matter is brought to the head of the adults, I am afraid it will have a significant impact on the adults' reputation..."
A prophecy comes true!
That night, just when Du Wenxing and Wu Heiniu finished their noodles at the Dragon Whisper Noodle Restaurant at Sun Haocheng's family and were about to return to the manor outside the city, they found that the city gate was under high alert and a team of soldiers were strictly inspecting the crowds leaving the city.
what happened?
Wu Heiniu and Du Wenxing looked at each other and were both surprised.
Then I heard the crowd discussing and realized that something big happened today. A bloody text was written by someone at the gate of the north city of Taizhou City, which said: If Wei Yiqing’s dog official is not dead, I will choose one person from the homes of the wealthy families in Taizhou City every day to kill them. - Blood Bat Demon!
The most terrifying thing is that on the city wall, there is a corpse hanging next to this passage, a corpse that has been sucked into blood.
The body was Hu Denglai, deputy chief of Taizhou Folding Salt Course Department, and was also a subordinate official of Wei Yiqing.
This move immediately caused panic among the people in Taizhou City, especially those wealthy families and Wei Yiqing's subordinate bureaucrats, who were even more frightened, fearing that the blood bat demon would come to him. Wei Yiqing was protected by officers and soldiers, but they were not qualified.
That night, more than a dozen members of the Folding Salt Class Office asked for leave due to illness.
Wei Yiqing was furious and informed the governor Wu Yuan. He immediately searched the traces of the blood bat demon in the city, especially several city gates, and even conducted strict inspections to prevent the owl from escaping from outside Taizhou.
At the prefect's office, Yang Wenchang said to Wu Yuan with some displeasure: "Old Wu, after Wei Yiqing transferred so many people, the guards in the prison will be much weaker. This is not possible!"
Wu Yuan smiled bitterly on his round face and said, "Brother Yang, there is nothing to do with Lord Wei. Do you think that if he was so humiliated by the blood bat demon, if he did not fight back, his face would be lost. There will be any official power there in the future? If I don't send someone to him this time, Lord Wei will really blame me to death!"
Yang Wenchang shook his sleeves and said, "This blood bat demon was attacked by Wei Yiqing himself. It should be considered a personal grudge. How can we take so many soldiers and horses?"
"After all, it is also an official in the court. The Blood Bat Demon is going to kill the court officials. How could there be any personal grudges? They are all contempt for the court to us!" Wu Yuan empathized with it and was extremely angry at the behavior of the Blood Bat Demon.
...
At the city gate, Du Wenxing and Wu Heiniu left the city successfully. They had a letter of guarantee issued by the Iron Wolf Gang. Of course, it was not in the name of the Iron Wolf Gang, but was offered by a celebrity in Taizhou City.
Every newbie has a copy.
This kind of thing, the Iron Wolf Gang needs as much as it does.
Snakes have snake paths, and rats have rat paths.
Moreover, as one of the regular "gangs of underworld forces" in Taizhou, the members of the Iron Wolf Gang cannot be all black households.
When he arrived outside the city, Wu Heiniu was still sighing at the might of the blood bat demon. Such behavior was already blatantly against the government, right?
Even if you are called a "rebel".
In fact, the next day, the Blood Bat Demon was wanted as a thief.
The reason for this is that something happened again the next morning.
Early in the morning, the gates of the gentry and celebrities in Taizhou City were painted with bloody blood bat demon marks, even the prefect Wu Yuan's mansion was not spared.
This is too rampant!
Wu Yuan was really angry this time and sent all the soldiers out. The whole city was so full of rope that he would have to find the murderer, the Blood Bat Demon.
In the prison, only the Jinyiwei guards were left.
...
A secret stronghold of the Iron Wolf Gang, Hu Tielang said to the Heilang: "You did a good job. Now everyone's eyes were attracted by the Blood Bat Demon, and the soldiers were also sent away. The garrison power of the prison has been reduced to the lowest level. As long as we entangle the Jinyiwei, we can do it much more conveniently."
Black Wolf smiled and said, "I'm afraid that this blood bat demon will get mad when he sees his marks being painted everywhere."
"Hehe, who made him so crazy? It just so happened to attract our attention."
It turned out that these blood bat demon logos were actually drawn by the Iron Wolf Gang.
...
The southeast corner of Taizhou is a slum.
No matter how rich the place is, poor people are indispensable, and Taizhou City naturally has slums.
In a dilapidated house, a young man with a pale face chuckled, "This Iron Wolf Gang is really interesting. Are you trying to blame the teacher?"
"Although I don't know what their purpose is, this action has helped me a lot and saved me some tricks. The guards in the prison are already very weak, leaving only some Jinyiwei. Hehe, these Jinyiwei teachers don't take these Jinyiwei seriously, only one Yang Wenchang is more troublesome, but the teacher should be able to deal with it..."
...
Wei Yiqing drank all the soup and the porcelain bowl in his hand on the table, saying, "This blood bat demon is really hateful. He actually used such despicable means, hateful, hateful!"
"Don't be upset, this also means that this owl has already lost his skills. Moreover, his move annoyed the prefect. Now the whole city searches, he can always find it." Zi Donglai comforted him.
...
In the prison, Yang Wenchang looked at Huangfu Han who was no longer in human form in front of him and sneered, "Brother Huangfu, I advise you to quickly tell me the location of "Wanshou Daozang" and you can suffer less pain, otherwise you will probably not be able to get through the journey!"
"Hehehe..." Huangfu Han, who was hanging on the wooden rack, let out a gloomy laughter, and then said, "Yang Wenchang, don't waste your time. I would say it was too early. Now that my family is destroyed, people are already like this, do you think I will be afraid? Hehe, I am not afraid of death, let alone this little pain? What are your means? Just come!" His voice was weak and firm.
Yang Wenchang was so angry that he laughed, "Some pain is even more terrible than death! Come on, be punished!"
