“And that woman seems to be using the Formless Heart Sutra, which is known as the gradeless book in the royal library.”

“We have to try again. This Xu Bai person definitely has more tricks up his sleeve. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have participated in the matter of King You

Sheng. ”

The young man rambled on as if he was talking to himself. After a while, he turned around and left the forest.

Yunlai Manor.

Yun Zihai waved his hand and wiped away the fork on the brush.

“Ahem.” Yun Zihai coughed lightly. There was no expression on his pale face.

In front of him was a piece of paper that he had rolled into a strip.

“This is the third letter that went straight to the Imperial Court, but there was still no response. It seems that it was intercepted midway.”

“But I’ve been following the carrier pigeon all the way until it flew out of Yunlai Mansion, and there’s nothing unusual.”

“No, if the other party is luring the tiger away from the mountain, I’ll be in big trouble.”

As he straightened out the forks on the brush, he pondered in secret.

He had already sent three letters to the Imperial Court in a row, but the results were unsatisfactory and there was no response.

The occurrence of such a situation made him wonder if someone had intercepted the messenger pigeon, causing him to not receive any news.

However, he couldn’t chase too far. If he chased out of Yunlai Mansion, the other party would be luring the tiger away from the mountain. If he fell into the trap, it would be troublesome.

Up until now, he seemed to have cut off contact with the outside world, but there was only one place that was fine, and that was Xu Bai’s Yin Posthouse.

“I hope Brother Xu can come quickly.” Yun Zihai thought.

Just as he was thinking about this, he heard footsteps outside the door. He looked in the direction of the sound and saw Xu Bai walking in with the girl he had met earlier.

Yun Zihai was overjoyed. He stood up and walked toward Xu Bai. After taking two steps, he stopped and frowned.

“Brother Xu, did you encounter an ambush?”

Just now, he smelled a faint bloody smell on Xu Bai’s body. It was obviously left behind by a battle.

“There are more than a hundred people, and the weakest one is a Level Eight expert. “Xu Bai said.

Chu Yu had been trailing behind Xu Bai ever since she entered the government office. She looked just like a real servant girl.

However, his eyes were filled with curiosity as he looked around.

“The other party has created such a huge formation. It seems that they have nothing to fear.”Yun Zihai’s thoughts were the same as Xu Bai’s. Since the other party dared to send so many people over, they must have thought of a backup plan.

‘ Let’s not talk about this for now.” Xu Bai waved his hand.” Brother Yun, you said you found a clue. Take me to take a look.””

Hearing this, Yun Zihai didn’t say anything more about this issue. He quickly brought Xu Bai to the prison at the side.

This was a prison cell located in the government office. It was dark inside. Other than the oil lamp on the wall, there was no other source of light.

This scene made Xu Bai feel like he had seen it before. Some memories were attacking him in his mind. After thinking about it carefully, he suddenly realized something.

Wasn’t this very similar to the scene in the Raging Tiger Camp? The cell in the Ferocious Tiger Camp was also dark and looked very deserted.

It had been a long time since the Raging Tiger Camp, but the experience in that prison cell was still vivid in his mind. After all, that was his first time killing someone, and it was also his first awakening progress bar.

As he walked, he reminisced. Sometimes, memories could make people feel happy. Xu Bai thought about those things and unconsciously, his footsteps became a little lighter.

“Here.” Yun Zihai walked with Xu Bai for a while and came to the innermost cell. He pointed at the person in the cell and said, “Brother Xu, do you think this person looks familiar?”

The cell was very dark. Yun Zihai added an oil lamp to the cell alone. Under the faint light, Xu Bai narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw the person in the cell.

This was an ordinary-looking young man with a satchel hanging from his waist. The satchel was very old and there were many traces of sewing on it.

“Zheng Jin?”

Xu Bai still remembered this person’s name. Wasn’t he the coroner he met when he came to Yun Nan Prefecture?

Oh right, it seemed to be a coroner. It was a special profession.

“Is there a problem with him?” Xu Bai asked.

“Brother Xu, do you still remember what I told you before?” Yun Zihai nodded. The autopsy report that this guy gave me was extremely perfunctory. There was not a single bit of useful information on it. In that so-called autopsy report, any ordinary coroner could have done it.”

“A coroner is good at searching for traces, especially when it comes to the dead. He is in the business of speaking on behalf of the dead. This should not be the case…” Chu Yu tugged at the bars of the cell and stuck her face into the crack of the cell. She was filled with curiosity.

Xu Bai held Chu Yu’s head and pulled her back.””lf you want to go in and stay for a while, I can open the back door for you.”

Chu Yu quickly shrunk her head and shook it rapidly.””No, no, prison is not auspicious.”

She was just curious, not stupid. Who would want to go in and stay in such a situation?

Seeing that Chu Yu had settled down, Xu Bai ignored her and continued asking,””Did you find any useful information?”

Yun Zihai said,” I did, but this guy answered too quickly. I suspect he’s trying to bite back.””

As he spoke, he took out a stack of papers from his sleeve and handed it to Xu Bai, indicating that these were Zheng Jin’s statements..
