Chapter 351: News that Wei 4 has found out
When Song Feng heard Master Chen's question, his expression froze, and he bowed slightly, saying, "Master Chen, I dare to guarantee that the man must be from the Night Patrol Division. I don't have any other outstanding skills in my life, but my eyes are quite capable of recognizing people. I have indeed seen this man several times in the Night Patrol Division, and I have a deep impression of him, so I will definitely not make a mistake."
After listening to Song Feng's words, Master Chen nodded slightly, his face showing no joy or anger. After a moment, he asked again: "Then do you know why this person is so hurried and so hasty, what is he going to do?"
When Song Feng heard Master Chen's question, he couldn't help but show a trace of difficulty on his face, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes. He slowly said, "This... I really don't know."
Master Chen shook his head gently, his mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a faint smile, as if he was laughing at himself for asking a stupid question, and also seemed to be making fun of Song Feng's nervousness. He said: "I was just asking casually. If you even know what he is doing, then you are really a god..."
After Master Chen finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Chen Kuan and said, "Uncle Kuan, let's go in... Oh, by the way, you must pay close attention to the child I brought with me before. Don't let him run away. I will take him away with me tomorrow."
Chen Kuan's face was immediately filled with a flattering smile, and he said carefully: "Don't worry, young master. If the child runs away, you can use his head as a ball to kick!"
Master Chen curled his lips slightly, and a half-smile appeared on his cold and arrogant face. He turned and walked inside, saying as he walked: "How can I use your head as a ball to kick? Your head... there is no ball to kick..."
Seeing this, Chen Kuan and Song Feng hurriedly followed Master Chen's footsteps and walked in. The figures of the three soon disappeared into the deep doorway of the Chen Mansion, leaving only the still noisy night and dim lights outside.
... ....
Mingyue gently stroked the mane of the new horse, feeling the power hidden beneath its strong body, and finally felt relieved.
With this energetic new mount, I can finally continue to travel at full speed.
Mingyue wanted to turn around and thank the master of the Chen family and the young man who spoke for him.
But he was pushed out by a servant, who said angrily: "Hurry up, hurry up, don't let the master see you, or I will be implicated!"
Seeing this, Mingyue knew that this man would definitely not let him break in again, and it was extremely urgent to return to Minglei City at this time, so he did not insist anymore, but secretly decided in his heart that he would come back to thank him after the matter was settled.
I don’t know why, but after coming out of Chen’s house, Mingyue suddenly had an indescribable feeling in his heart. This feeling was like a layer of mist, covering his heart and making him feel inexplicably uneasy.
But when Mingyue continued to think about what made him feel so strange, he had no idea at all.
He subconsciously turned his head and looked towards the Chen Mansion, which was still brightly lit.
The lights in Chen's house were bright, and the sound of laughter could be heard faintly, which formed a sharp contrast with the cold night where he was at the moment.
Then, Mingyue shook his head heavily, as if he wanted to get rid of all the complicated thoughts in his mind, and determination appeared in his eyes again.
He knew that the most important thing at the moment was to rush back to Minglei City as soon as possible. The earlier he arrived, the sooner he could inform Shen Lie of the current situation.
Otherwise, without Shen Lie putting pressure on the prefect of Yanling City, they would have no way to take action in Yanling City at all.
At this critical moment, other things seem insignificant and not worth his distraction.
He took a deep breath and jumped onto the horse swiftly.
Then, he whipped the whip violently, and the whip made a crisp sound in the air. The horse under his crotch seemed to understand his master's anxious intention, neighed loudly, raised its four hooves, and rushed forward like an arrow from a bow.
Although it was already deep in the night, apart from a few lights and the hazy moonlight, everything else was pitch black.
But Mingyue remained calm, as he was no stranger to traveling in the dark.
When he was looking for Li Zhi, he often traveled all night long. Over time, he became accustomed to it.
…
When Mingyue finally arrived at Minglei City, it was already dawn.
After a whole day's journey, Mingyue finally arrived at the city gate dragging her exhausted body.
He had hardly stopped during the whole journey. Mingyue's eyes were bloodshot, his face was as pale as paper, and he was extremely tired, as if a gust of wind could blow him down.
However, he endured the physical and mental fatigue and ran all the way to Shen Lie's home with tenacious perseverance.
When he arrived at Shen Lie's door, he didn't even have the strength to knock on the door. He could only shout in a weak voice: "Master! Master!"
When the servants in Shen Lie's house heard the noise, they hurried out to check, only to see Mingyue standing staggering at the door, looking haggard.
They were also shocked. As servants in Shen Lie's family, they naturally recognized Mingyue's identity and hurried in to inform Shen Lie.
Soon, Shen Lie came out of the house in a hurry. Mingyue then used up her last bit of strength to hurriedly tell Shen Lie the whole story.
As soon as he finished speaking, his legs went weak and he almost fainted.
Fortunately, Shen Lie was quick-witted and rushed forward to hold Mingyue firmly. Looking at Mingyue's appearance, he thought that this child must have suffered a lot along the way because of this matter.
Shen Lie nodded solemnly and said firmly, "Don't worry, I know everything. I will go to Yanling City in person and get to the bottom of this matter. You should take a good rest first, don't worry about anything, and leave the rest to me."
Afterwards, Shen Lie quickly ordered his servants to send Mingyue back to her residence, while he prepared his horse to head to Yanling City.
After Mingyue was sent back home, he was already drowsy and his consciousness was blurred, but he lay in bed and his heart could not calm down.
So, he forced himself to hold on to his weak body, and was about to get up again and rush to Yanling City despite his physical fatigue, but he saw Wei Sida walking towards him at the door with great strides.
Wei Si saw Mingyue at home from afar, and a look of joy immediately appeared on his face. He quickened his pace and walked into the house, saying, "Brother Mingyue! It's good that you are here! There is news about that matter!"
Mingyue's originally dull eyes instantly lit up when he heard this, and he couldn't wait to say, "Brother Wei, please tell me quickly! What's going on?
Wei Si knew Mingyue was extremely anxious at the moment, so he didn't waste any words and went straight to the point: "I asked a friend who has some connections in Yanling City to help find out the situation over there. The disappearance of Yanling City is actually closely related to the prefect of Yanling City!"
Mingyue's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but ask, "What's going on?"
Wei Si lowered his voice slightly and said seriously, "I heard from a friend that the brother-in-law of the prefect of Yanling City originally came from an ordinary family, not a wealthy family. But recently, he has been going in and out of those high-end and luxurious places every day, spending money like water, and acting very ostentatiously. Once, after drinking, he said something he didn't want to say, and accidentally revealed that he was just covering up for some people and doing some shady things, so he got a huge fortune. After the prefect of Yanling City learned about this, he was worried that the truth would be exposed and he would be implicated, so he has been trying his best to suppress the matter, not allowing his subordinates to investigate, and even not allowing discussion..."
Mingyue listened to Wei Si's story, clenched her fists, gnashed her teeth, and couldn't help but curse angrily: "You dog official!"
Wei Si continued, "And I heard from that friend that the prefect of Yanling City seems to have made arrangements to have his brother-in-law leave Leizhou as soon as possible and go somewhere else to hide!"
Mingyue raised his head suddenly. He knew that if this key person ran away, it would not be easy to catch him.
Moreover, if this person is not caught and confronted, the prefect of Yanling City will definitely not surrender.
Thinking of this, Mingyue did not hesitate. After thanking Wei Si, she hurried away.
He must get to Yanling City as soon as possible!
