In a room on the first floor of a hotel more than 1000 meters away from the Donggang Inspection Department, Yan Rhinoceros silently drilled out of the ground with Xia Pingan.
"Your speed is a bit slow. Last time, Lin Yi carried me through the ground, but it seems to be much faster than yours!" Xia Pingan patted the dust off his body and was ready to change his clothes.
The scene that he had just performed in the yard of the Inspection Department had excellent sound and light effects. It was just that his clothes had been burned a little and he had to change into a new set. Fortunately, he had originally prepared to change into a new set of clothes.
After doing all the hard work, Yan Rhinoceros glanced at Xia Pingan speechlessly and thought, 'How can I be compared with Lin Yi? Why don't you compare me with Beitang Zhao?' Although Yan Rhinoceros muttered in his heart, he still said, "Can you give me one more hour?"
Xia Pingan glanced at Yan Rhinoceros, "One more hour, what are you going to do?"
"I have some personal grudges. If I don't solve it, I won't be able to sleep in the future!"
"You want to kill people?"
"No!" Yan Rhinoceros hurriedly said.
"Okay, go ahead, I'll give you one more hour..."
Yan Rhinoceros let out a long sigh, "I'll be back soon...". After saying this, Yan Rhinoceros turned into a puff of black smoke and drilled into the ground, disappearing in a flash.
Only Xia Pingan was left in the room. Xia Pingan quickly took off all his clothes and combed his hair in front of the mirror in the room. After that, he took a shower in the room and took out a new set of clothes from the space-teleportation warehouse. After putting on the wishful mask, Xia Pingan almost couldn't recognize himself in front of the mirror in the room.
In front of the mirror was a man in his thirties. He had short hair, and the beard on his chin and lips were clean shaven, revealing a faint shade of green. The man's face was a little thin, and his eyes were a little small, but he looked very energetic. He was wearing a decent but inconspicuous gray coat and black trousers. Inside the coat, he wore a light blue linen shirt and a vest. A silver chain of a pocket watch could be seen inside the vest. He looked very cultured and harmless.
"Add a pair of glasses and you'll look more like it..." Xia Pingan said and took out a pair of old-fashioned tortoiseshell glasses from the space-teleportation warehouse. Once he put on the glasses, he looked more like it.
His hand moved again, and a half-old brownish-yellow suitcase appeared beside him. Xia Pingan carried the suitcase and looked at himself in the mirror. He couldn't find anything wrong with him.
The Wishful Mask could be seen through by Beitang Wangchuan, but in the whole of Shangjing, there was only one Beitang Wangchuan. There were not many people with the same ability. The probability of ordinary people meeting someone like Beitang Wangchuan was like winning the lottery.
After doing this, Xia Pingan looked at the time. Yan Xi was about to come back. If he didn't come back, he would become a pig when his time was up.
...
Director Li Chaoming of Jinming District hummed a little tune as he came out of the toilet. On the way, he touched the butt of a beautiful policewoman in the station. Amidst the policewoman's flirtatious pouting, he laughed and came to the door of his office.
Just as he pushed open the door of his office, Li Chaoming felt his vision go dark. A linen bag suddenly covered him from head to toe. Li Chaoming was shocked. Just as he wanted to call out, he found that his mouth and body suddenly went numb. He couldn't even open his mouth.
Killer? Assassin?
Who did I offend? The other party actually had the ability to send a killer and an assassin to sneak into my office to assassinate me...
At this moment, Li Chaoming thought of death. Cold sweat came out all over his body and his body and mind trembled.
The next second, Li Chaoming heard the door of his office being closed.
The assassin and the killer even closed the door with the rhythm of him closing the door normally. There was no chaos, no impatience, and the sound was not loud or soft. Everything was normal. Li Chaoming was frightened. This was a veteran.
Just when Director Li didn't know what he was going to face next, suddenly, he felt a sharp pain in his right calf. The sound of the bones in his calf breaking came directly to his ears.
Li Chaoming fell to the ground at once.
Li Chaoming, who was lying on the ground in pain, was on the verge of tears, but he couldn't scream. He could only hear the Assassin cursing him. He was completely confused, but in the next second, his left calf cracked. His left calf was also broken.
...
"Damn it, I told you to kick, I told you to kick, I told you to kick..." Yan Xi held a wooden stick in his hand. With a cold face, he directly broke both of Director Li's feet and kicked Director Li's stomach a few times. Director Li was kicked around in the sack until he fainted. Only then did he vent his anger.
The next second, Yan Xi put away the wooden stick, turned into a black smoke, and disappeared into the ground.
...
More than ten minutes later, Director Li's subordinates came to the office to ask for Director Li's signature. The secretary shouted outside the office for a long time, but there was no sound in the office. Several policemen who felt something was wrong broke the door and found Director Li lying on the ground in the sack.
Director Li was beaten by the thugs in his office. Both of his legs were broken, and he was knocked unconscious. The entire Jinyang District Police Station was in an uproar, and Director Li was quickly sent to the hospital.
...
Director Li, whose head was resting on the thigh of the beautiful secretary, woke up on the way to the hospital.
In the galloping carriage of the police station, Director Li groaned miserably. He was glad to be alive, but at the same time, he wanted to cry but had no tears. He was heartbroken, "I... Damn it... Who did I provoke... I didn't kick anyone... Ah, slow down the carriage, it hurts..."
...
Before the end of an hour, Yan Xi came out of the ground.
"Is it done?"
"It's done!" Yan Xi nodded and mustered up the courage to make a request, "Can you... Don't be a pig. You're going to run away. It's too conspicuous to bring a pig with you..."
Xia Pingan thought about it seriously, "Your request is good. Well, how about being a rabbit?"
"I don't want to be a rabbit!" Yan Xi's face changed, and he shook his head firmly.
"Okay, then I know!"
...
A few minutes later, Xia Pingan, who had changed his face, walked out of the hotel. He was carrying an old brown leather suitcase in his left hand. There was a birdcage on the suitcase, and in the birdcage, there was a gray eagle owl with a depressed face.
Xia Pingan called a carriage and went directly to the railway station in Shangjing. After passing the inspection, he got on the train that was about to leave Shangjing and go to the northwest of the Shang Dynasty...
Xia Pingan was going to Youshan, the place where Lin Qing died.
...
"Woo... Woo... Woo..."
After getting on the train, not long after, the train whistle began to sound and the train began to move. Smoke came out of the chimney at the front of the train. The whole train slowly drove out of the station and began to accelerate gradually.
Xia Pingan looked through the window at Shangjing outside. His heart was filled with emotion. After leaving this time, he didn't know when he could come back and see the faces here again.
"Dong dong dong..." Suddenly there was a soft knock on the door outside the box. Xia Pingan "looked" outside and found a pair of eight or nine-year-old twin boys standing outside his box.
The two little boys and their parents were in the box next door. Xia Pingan had just met them when he got on the train. The two little guys had been staring at Xia Pingan's birdcage.
He walked over and opened the door of the box.
The two little boys looked smart and their eyes were full of curiosity. When the door of the private room opened, the two little guys saw the birdcage that Xia Pingan had placed on the table in the private room. Their eyes never left the birdcage.
"Uncle, is that your pet bird?" One of the little guys asked boldly.
"Well, yes!" Xia Pingan nodded.
"Can we go and see?"
"Yes, come in!" Xia Pingan smiled.
The two little fellows immediately entered the private room and surrounded the Eagle Owl in the cage, commenting on it and clicking their tongues in wonder. However, they did not notice that the bird in the cage was rolling its eyes with a gloomy expression. It turned around and faced the two children with its butt.
"Uncle, what is this bird called?"
"Eagle owl."
"What does it eat?" The two little guys were very curious.
"It probably eats other birds and mice!"
"Wow..." The two little guys cried out in surprise, "Does this bird eat insects?"
"Maybe... eat it!"
"That's great..." The two little guys suddenly became happy. One of the little guys took out a small matchbox from his trouser pocket and opened it. There were two caterpillars in the matchbox. He looked at Xia Pingan expectantly, "Uncle, I have two insects here. Can I feed them to it?"
Xia Pingan looked at the silly bird in the cage. Its eyes were wide open and its feathers were almost standing up. He gently coughed twice, "Ahem, it doesn't eat this kind of insect!"
"Does it eat cockroaches?"
"It doesn't eat cockroaches either. It still likes to eat birds and mice!"
"Oh, I understand..."
The two little guys stayed in the box for a while, asked a bunch of questions, and left satisfied.
...
However, less than half an hour later, Xia Pingan's box door was knocked again. He opened the box door and saw the two little guys standing at the door, each with a look of excitement.
"Uncle, did we find something that the bird can eat?"
"Oh, what?"
One of the little guys mysteriously took out a paper bag from behind, and then took out a mouse trap from the paper bag. That mouse trap was really holding a mouse. That mouse was still alive and squeaking.
These two little fellows were very bold.
"This... where did you find it?" Xia Pingan didn't know what to say.
"In the kitchen warehouse of the dining car of the train. When we went there just now, we found that the conductor used this mouse trap to catch a mouse. Now we can feed that eagle owl!"
"This... be careful that it pecks you!"
"It's okay, we can put the mouse in the cage and watch it eat..."
Xia Pingan looked at the bird in the cage sympathetically and said in his heart, "This is your choice..."
...
The train rolled forward, and the scenery outside the window constantly changed. After leaving the city, the scenery outside the window became more and more wilderness, and occasionally some towns and train stations appeared. Unknowingly, an entire afternoon passed, and the sky gradually darkened.
Because the bird in the cage didn't eat the mouse they brought, the twins finally left Xia Pingan's box somewhat disappointed.
When the little guy left, the bird in the cage was a little listless after being tormented by the mouse.
The box finally quieted down.
In the sky outside, slowly, the stars could be seen on the horizon.
...
Suddenly, the Boy of Fortune, who had been playing happily in the train carriage, seemed to feel something. The Boy of Fortune suddenly came to the roof of the speeding train and raised his head to look at the sky.
Xia Pingan's heart skipped a beat. He also raised his head and "looked" at the sky outside the carriage. In the sky, dozens of summoners flew above the clouds, following the railway and flying towards Shangjing.
Half an hour later, another batch came...
After another hour, the third batch of summoners flew over the sky. There were more than a hundred of them, and they were also flying towards Shangjing aggressively.
The three batches of summoners were all masked or wearing masks. They didn't look like summoners from the Shang Dynasty at all. Instead... they looked a little like people from the Blood Demon Church. Because among the summoners wearing masks, Xia Pingan found that some of their masks were similar to the five demons' subordinates he saw in Shangjing.
Xia Pingan's heart thumped. Why did something big happen in Shangjing just after he left? Why were there so many summoners rushing towards Shangjing?
