Chapter 0171 Thousand Faced Ghost(1/2)
Wu Haojun could clearly detect the familiar aura from before, but was unable to pinpoint his specific location.
With a suspended mirror, if you want to question nearly a thousand people, one night is simply not enough.
Not to mention that there are people from King Ji and the four major families among them. These people are flattering on the surface, but in fact they are very unwilling to cooperate with Wu Haojun.
"What does this mean? Are we all being interrogated as prisoners?"
"Yes, if we keep asking one by one like this, when will we ask?"
"This Wu Haojun is really troublesome. It's a pity that we didn't kill him just now!"
"Keep your voice down, don't let anyone hear you, His Majesty is looking at us right now!"
Wu Haojun only asked five or six people whether the guards were okay. Many people from the four major families had already begun to yawn and were about to fall asleep.
"Little friend, you are too slow."
Mu Cangkong walked to Wu Haojun and said to him.
"What do you think, Your Majesty?"
Wu Haojun naturally hoped to go faster, but he had no choice.
Just watch Mu Cangkong take the hanging mirror and say: "We need to improve our efficiency."
Wu Haojun was a little curious: "How to improve?"
Mu Cangkong looked at Wu Haojun in the mirror and asked, "Are you a woman?"
Wu Haojun: "...My lord, do you think this is fun?"
I saw a line of words displayed in the hanging mirror: "After going to Baiyu Mountain, my throat felt very uncomfortable. For a moment, I felt that my breasts were getting bigger, and I almost thought I had turned into a woman."
Mu Cangkong looked at the words on the mirror and felt a little dumbfounded: "You have quite a lot of mental activities."
Wu Haojun's face darkened and he wanted to take the mirror back from Mu Cangkong's hand.
Pan Guoan said from the side: "The prince's method is good. We only need to ask them the most direct questions."
Screening out the least likely ones first, narrowing the scope, and then interrogating them one by one can save a lot of time.
Just watch Mu Cangkong walking through the crowd with a suspended mirror in his hand, asking everyone one by one.
The content of the question was also very straightforward.
Only one sentence: "Are you the murderer?"
All those who saw Mu Cangkong passing by shook their heads or waved their hands, indicating that they were not the murderer at all.
The mirror has remained unchanged.
Soon, most of the suspects were eliminated.
The fewer people left, the smaller the scope of Wu Haojun's surveillance.
However, what is surprising is that everyone is normal.
The suspended mirror never changes.
So, the murderer is not here?
Mu Cangkong looked at Wu Haojun and shrugged at him.
Wu Haojun also frowned. He was very sure that the aura of the vague figure was here, but he couldn't determine the specific location.
At this moment, Jiang Xiaoyu stood up and said, "Didn't find it? Why don't you check my place?"
He is now the "Human Emperor". As soon as he said this, everyone present fell to their knees.
Prime Minister Pan stepped forward and said, "I am so frightened that I dare not be rude to His Majesty!"
Jiang Xiaoyu waved his hand and said angrily: "Okay, I know you are loyal, and I didn't let you doubt me."
With that said, Jiang Xiaoyu stepped down from the dragon boat, turned behind him, and said slowly: "Since the other party can turn into anyone, why can't he turn into an animal or other object?"
As he spoke, he gently pointed to a place behind him with his hand.
Everyone looked in the direction of Jiang Xiaoyu's finger.
I saw a very inconspicuous place behind the dragon, and there seemed to be a vague shadow, shaking slightly in the firelight.
If there hadn't been a prompt from the "Human Emperor" just now, no one would have noticed it.
Little did they know that Jiang Xiaoyu had seen the Thousand-faced Ghost and had been wary of him trying to assassinate him again after fighting him.
It was the [pen] in his hand that gave the hint just now, otherwise Jiang Xiaoyu wouldn't have discovered it.
"There!"
Mu Cangkong shouted loudly, still holding the suspended mirror in his hand.
I saw a sentence on the mirror: "What if you know that I am here? As long as I hide here, no one can do anything to me."
"Protect Your Majesty!"
A voice shouted, and immediately a group of guards appeared to protect the "Human Emperor" in the center.
Under the firelight, the blurry shadow was still shaking, and everyone could see it clearly.
"It seems that this guy is afraid of fire. After encountering fire, his 'harmony between man and nature' will no longer work."
Jiang Xiaoyu said word for word.
Hearing this, Mu Cangkong hurriedly ordered: "Come here, hold up the torch!"
Immediately, a group of guards held up torches and formed a circle, fearing that they would be escaped by the blurry shadow.
"It turns out it's you
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Making trouble in the palace!"
Pan Guoan winked, and Wang Jiang stepped out from behind him and rushed towards the blurry shadow.
From the moment he drew the sword to the moment he drew it out, it was all in the blink of an eye. Even Wu Haojun felt inferior when he saw it.
Unexpectedly, there was a "whoosh" sound from the opposite side, and the blurry shadow moved quickly and disappeared immediately.
"left!"
Wu Haojun opened his soul-living eyes and immediately determined the opponent's location based on his speed and direction.
Without any hesitation, Wang Jiang quickly chased after him, and then stabbed him with his sword.
bite!
There was a crisp sound.
The two sides' weapons clashed.
Wang Jiang not only cut off the opponent's weapon, but also broke off the man's arm.
If he hadn't been able to survive, Wang Jiang would have killed him just now with the sword strike.
Just look at the blurry shadow, blood dripping continuously, and a person gradually emerges.
This man was thin, with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, and a goatee. He covered the wound with one hand, but he was still bleeding.
"So it's you?"
Wu Haojun was slightly startled.
Wu Haojun had seen this person before when he was in a clothing store. It was the same boss he met at that time.
Jiang Xiaoyu also saw this person on the big screen, but he didn't pay attention at the time.
Later, I met him once on Bai Yushan's side, and I recognized this person as Bai Yushan's subordinate "Thousand-faced Ghost".
Mu Cangkong pointed at the Thousand-Faced Ghost and ordered his subordinates: "The assassin is here, why don't we take him down quickly!"
The guards immediately stepped forward and surrounded the Thousand-Faced Ghost.
Thousand-faced Ghost sneered, looked at Wu Haojun, and said coldly: "Your Majesty, why don't you take action?"
Hearing what he said, Wu Haojun frowned: "He seems to be talking to me."
How did Wu Haojun know that Jiang Xiaoyu and Bai Suyi worked together to deceive Bai Yushan and treated him casually?
In the end, the Thousand-Faced Ghost turned out to be real.
That night he came to assassinate the Emperor.
Although I failed, I still have a chance.
Looking at Wu Haojun in front of him, a look of surprise appeared on the Thousand-faced Ghost's face.
"This Wu Haojun is surrounded by a faint evil spirit. He is obviously possessed by that great king."
Thousand-faced Ghost is a bit unclear.
"Your Majesty, if you don't take action, I will be killed by these people!"
The Thousand-faced Ghost looked solemn, looking like Wu Haojun, and once again made a request to "her".
