Chapter 401 Pretender
Mr. Jiang had a difficult day.
Ever since he had a head-on fight with a master sent by the imperial court two or three years ago, he has never been as nervous as he is today.
He was always on guard against the young man opposite him who might suddenly explode and do something irrational.
Fortunately, although Zhao Yushu spoke quite harshly in the morning, he behaved very well the whole time. He played chess when he was supposed to play chess, and ate when he was supposed to eat. However, he expressed strong dissatisfaction with being stared at when he went to the toilet.
After finally waiting until the sun went down, Mr. Jiang felt very tired for the first time. Could it be that he was really getting old?
He planned to go find Zhu Xian later and ask him to ask his two old friends to come over and take over the shift. If he continued like this, he wouldn't be able to hold out for three days, let alone ten days.
Zhao Yushu washed his feet and went to bed early. The room was dark. From what he could sense, the young man fell asleep quickly and soundly.
So Mr. Jiang blew out the light in his room. The moment the light went out, the room became dark, too dark.
Old Jiang was a veteran of many battles, and he noticed something was wrong at the first moment. He quickly scanned the area again with his spiritual sense, and then heaved a sigh of relief.
Mr. Liu next door was still lying on the bed, and the spiritual light of the sixth heaven was dazzling.
Zhao Yushu stayed close to Kunwu, quietly waiting for Jiang Lao's spiritual sense to pass by, and used Kunwu's spiritual light to cover up his true form which had been hidden as a mortal.
"Brother Kunwu, I know you have spiritual awareness. I need to go out to do something, so please stop imitating me and just sleep here for one night. How about that?"
Kunwu ignored him.
"Human lives are at stake, big brother, please help me, please help me."
Zhao Yushu quietly turned over, and Kunlun also moved, and then was held down by Zhao Yushu. Madam Xu's spiritual power gushed out: "Don't move! I'm giving you face, right?"
Kunwu immediately stopped moving.
Zhao Yushu let out a long breath, took a step forward, and instantly appeared outside the government office wall.
The slight fluctuation when using the Shadow Step startled Old Jiang next door again. He scanned with his spiritual sense again, and Mr. Liu was still lying obediently.
Old Jiang rubbed his red eyes. Was he being too cautious?
Zhao Yushu's figure flashed and he quickly rushed to the clinic.
There were people secretly guarding the clinic, but none of them were experts and couldn't even detect the fluctuations of the Shadow Step.
Zhao Yushu appeared directly in Lan Ling's room.
An ice spike fell silently from above his head.
Zhao Yushu was startled and grabbed the ice spike: "It's me!"
Lan Ling sat on the bed with her clothes on. She gently patted A-Dong who was almost awakened beside her and whispered, "You're out!"
"Slipped out."
"You, why are you running into my room so late at night?"
"Storage bag, take something. You are too vigilant."
Zhao Yushu took the storage bag that Lan Ling threw over and took out a black robe that had been unused for a long time.
"Yinsi?"
Lan Ling watched as Zhao Yushu put the hood on his head, covered it with a veil, and then took out a few scars and randomly pasted them on the corners of his eyes and forehead to hide all his features.
"Well, I killed a man from the underworld before and took this clothing from him. This clothing is good, warm and cut-proof. I'm going to scare the enemy now. If I'm lucky, I can get you one too."
"No, it's ugly."
Zhao Yushu threw the storage bag to Lan Ling: "I will be back before dawn, be careful."
"Well, be careful too."
Zhu Huo hadn't slept for nearly two nights. His arrest team had changed shifts twice, but he hadn't rested.
"Brother Huo, go back and get some sleep. We'll continue investigating."
A subordinate looked at Zhu Huo who was yawning and tried to persuade him.
"It's okay. Our investigation these past two days has yielded good results. There is indeed a man in black who has contacted the two subordinates of the helmsman. I don't believe that we can't find this person. Let's go to Folding Fan Street for some midnight snack. I'll treat you!"
Everyone cheered and headed towards Folding Fan Street holding lanterns.
Zhao Yushu was wearing black clothes and walking through the streets and alleys. He was very pressed for time tonight and he had to go to several places. The first place was Folding Fan Street.
At this time, only Zheshan Street would have a large number of people moving around. As long as he walked around there, someone would immediately notice him, and there would be a certain probability that he would be led to the real Yinsi or his accomplices.
Even if he is not lured out, once the news of the appearance of the mysterious man in black spreads, the people in the underworld will begin to doubt who he is, which will make them suspicious and disrupt their plans.
After all, no one dares to let a person who is not sure whether he is an enemy or a friend wander around outside.
It is not strange to wear black clothes or hoods these days. It is also common for some people who come to seek prostitutes to wear masks to avoid being recognized by acquaintances, but combining several of these things together is quite rare.
When he walked on Zheshan Street, passers-by would look at him curiously, even the girls in the brothels on both sides would subconsciously stop their calls to solicit customers when they saw him.
Zhu Huo treated everyone to a meal of tangyuan and wontons, and ordered a few extra side dishes and a few pots of warm wine. The night wind was a bit cold, so he drank some warm wine to ward off the chill.
A man dressed in black walked past the food store. Zhu Huo rubbed his eyes, wondering if he hadn't rested for too long and had drunk some wine, which made him a little dizzy.
"Hey, hey, hey, look at that guy, right?"
Zhu Huo patted the table and pointed at the man in black who had just walked by.
Several subordinates looked back and almost spit out their wine. Is this such a coincidence?
A whooshing sound was heard, and Zhu Huo, along with several of his subordinates, started chasing after them, knocking over several tables, chairs and benches.
"Stop!" Zhu Huo shouted, and Zhao Yushu stood still.
Then the cultivation that had been suppressed to the fifth level suddenly erupted.
Zhao Yushu turned his head slowly. Huh, he actually ran into this guy first.
"You, you, you, stop!" Zhu Huo was frightened by the fluctuation of spiritual power. He really hadn't slept for too long and his mind was not clear enough. These three or five mortals under his command actually dared to stop a cultivator in the street.
"I stopped, and then what happened?"
Zhao Yushu lowered his voice, feeling a little regretful.
Judging from Zhu Huo's behavior, he is not familiar with the people in the underworld. It can even be said that he is looking for people from the underworld. Didn't his father push his son towards the underworld?
"You, did you ask Ah Sheng, no, Xu Sheng, to catch Ah Dong?"
Zhao Yushu looked at the young men in front of him whose legs were shaking and sneered, "Zhu Huo, didn't your parents tell you who I am?"
Zhu Huo was stunned.
"Go back and ask your parents."
Zhao Yushu turned around, quickened his pace, and quickly disappeared into the crowd, leaving only a few young detectives who almost lost their lives in a moment of impulse wiping their sweat behind him.
The trip to Zheshan Street was not in vain. Zhu Huo would definitely tell Zhu Xian what I said, and then Zhu Xian would become entangled and doubtful. That's good. The mission was completed in another way. I originally wanted to take the risk and go to Zhu Xian's house.
Next, Zhao Yushu was going to an old place. Although it was small, a lot of things had happened there, and they were all big things.
Zhao Yushu looked at the helmsman's courtyard which was no longer inhabited and felt deeply moved.
When it comes to the interests of the world, no matter whether you are the leader of the Red Lotus Sect or the sixth master of the academy, everyone is an ant.
