Chapter 328 Weird Alley
Zhou Fan didn't know that because he killed the Qinggui Mask Man, the situation in the city would change in a more severe direction.
But even if you know, Zhou Fan would not let the Qing Ghost Mask Man go.
Unfortunately, the Blue Ghost Mask Man is not weak, and it is not easy to capture such a physical warrior alive.
Otherwise, Zhou Fan would consider controlling him and ask about the whereabouts of his companions.
After returning to the courtyard where he lived, Zhou Fan did not think much but went to rest.
The next day, Zhou Fan and Li Jiuyue had breakfast together, and then the two of them came to Yiluansi Mansion to start their day's work.
The atmosphere in Sifu became more and more solemn.
The three Si'an envoys all had a dark face. After searching for several days, the two major forces hidden in the city still did not find too many traces.
All they caught were small fish and shrimps.
"We can't continue like this anymore. The strong men running around in various villages to carry out missions are almost unable to hold on." Yan Guilai in the room said with a cold face.
In order to solve the problem of the two major forces in the city, they retracted some of the already stretched hands. Now there are fewer people outside, and they are just trying hard to support them.
I thought I would soon destroy the two major forces in the city, but I found nothing in the past few days.
"I thought of all the ways I could think of. This year, suspicious outsiders have screened several times... and checked by each household... I can't find out those people and monsters." Monk Yuanhui said in a deep voice.
"What else can I do? Catch all the suspects and torture them one by one." Eunuch Ao shouted.
Yan Guilai ignored Eunuch Ao, but frowned and thought.
When Eunuch Ao first came, he acted like this. Yan Guilai once thought that this father-in-law from the palace might have been deliberately for him to show it, and suspected that Eunuch Ao was hidden.
But after so long, Yan Guilai understood a truth. Not every eunuch who came out of the palace was hidden...
But if we could come up with an excellent solution in a short period of time, Tianliangliya and Yiluansi would have done it long ago and would not have waited until this time.
Just as Monk Yuanhui said, in the past year, suspicious people from outside and households were unable to find those people and monsters.
There are only two great possibilities now. The first is that when the situation is not good, the personnel of the two major forces temporarily left Tianliang City through their secret channels, waiting to return later.
The second is that they are still in Tianliang City, but they are very good at hiding, whether they are relying on their identity or hiding in some more difficult-to-discover secret places...
The key is that the Lishi Talisman in the Sifu, the patrol team and the constables in the Tianliangliya have too weak ability to identify disguises.
The return of Yan from Yiluan Sifu and Monk Yuanhui have both eyesight, but they cannot have time to read everyone in Tianliang City.
Just as Yan Guilai and the other two were in a deep state of contemplation, someone was knocking on the door lightly.
While discussing, someone came to knock on the door, which made their faces slightly change.
"Come in." Yan Guilai said calmly.
The door was pushed open, and it was an aide in the Sifu. He said in a hurry: "Sir, something big happened."
The incident first happened in an alley in Dongfang.
Someone reported to Tianliangliya that an alley in Dongfang emitted a foul smell of corpses.
In densely populated places like Dongfang, some alleys smell bad, which is an ordinary thing.
The people in Tianliangliya did not take this seriously, thinking that there were small animals such as wild cats and other animals near the alley, but the problem quickly worsened.
This alley near the East City Wall was filled with a faint black mist.
Most people in this era were wary of some supernatural phenomena. People immediately stayed away from the alley, and the residents near the alley also fled their homes.
The people from Tianliangliya only took it seriously after receiving the report for the second time. They did not dare to step into the alley, but quickly reported to Yiluansi.
Those who came to take charge of this matter were Lishi Wu Chengcai and Mu Jianyuan in the Sifu.
Wu Chengcai, who looked like a scholar, shook the folding fan of the black iron fan. He looked at the alley not far away, and his hands subconsciously pinched the small gourd as big as a thumb on his waist.
The black smoke showed no sign of spreading.
"Brother Mu, do you see what the weird guy did?" Wu Chengcai asked with a frown.
Mu Jianyuan's mouth was closed, but a sound came from his belly: "I can't tell, why don't we go and ask the Master Fu from the Si Mansion to help me."
"There is not enough staff in the Si Mansion recently, so let's take a look first." Wu Chengcai shook his head, turned his head and looked at the headmaster beside him and asked, "Have you brought you something yet?"
"It's almost done." The captain replied quickly.
After a while, a constable walked back quickly with a basket of chickens and ducks.
"It's so slow, why don't you put it in quickly." The headmaster scolded.
This alley is only three meters long, but due to the black smoke, everyone can't see the situation inside.
The only way is to use chickens, ducks and other poultry to be tested first.
The constables opened the cage and drove a chicken, two ducks, and a goose into the alley.
But the chickens, ducks and geese entered the alley and did not come out again.
Wu Chengcai and Mu Jianyuan listened with their ears, but did not hear any sounds from chickens, ducks and geese.
There was a dead silence inside.
A detective patted the alley with a bamboo pole again, but he still didn't see chickens, ducks and geese being driven out.
"Take the bamboo pole back, be careful." Wu Chengcai said in a deep voice.
The constables carefully retracted the bamboo pole, stained with red blood and some feathers.
"Did you feel like you were sweeping foreign objects with a bamboo pole just now?" Mu Jianyuan asked the detective who used the bamboo pole.
"No." The detective shook his head.
Wu Chengcai and Mu Jianyuan looked at each other. If not, the chicken, duck and geese sent in would have no bodies.
But it is still impossible to be sure how it is not there.
This alley is a bit trickier than they thought.
What exactly causes this?
There are too many strange phenomena in smoke. Judging from these black smokes alone, it is hard to imagine what kind of weirdness is.
Wu Chengcai asked the detective to risk a bottle of black smoke to come back with a bottle.
The constable was wearing special talisman gloves in both hands, and he held the porcelain bottle in one hand and looked at the two strongmen.
Wu Chengcai glanced at the evil talisman on the body of the detective holding a bottle, and saw no abnormality.
Wu Chengcai asked someone to catch another rabbit, carefully unplugged the bottle cap, and the black smoke fell on the rabbit's head.
A quarter of an hour passed, and the rabbit had no abnormalities.
"It doesn't look like a curse or a poisonous gas. Why doesn't these smokes circulate?" Wu Chengcai frowned and said to himself.
