Chapter 99 Jiuyuan County
The late night in the imperial capital is not cold.
The occasional night wind that blows seems to carry the high temperature of the day, making people want to scold their mothers.
However, Xia Xuan's face is very cold now, and he has scolded that idiot Qiao Yu a hundred and eighty times in his heart.
It was already seven o'clock at night when he heard the news.
A full hour and a half passed.
Fortunately, Qiao Yu's identity and background were kept clean, and Xia's name could not be found, otherwise... it would be troublesome.
"What a complete idiot!"
Xia Xuan squinted his eyes, revealing an extremely dangerous look, and couldn't help but curse again.
Tonight, not only Qin Mo's strength surprised him, but Qiao Yu also gave him a big surprise.
He never expected that those three idiots would choose to set up an ambush at Qin Mo's door.
Is this the so-called doing something to hinder the investigation?
Xia Xuan called these three people in, and his original intention was to make some small moves behind his back to divert the attention of the security bureau.
But who would have thought...
Crackling.
The armrest of the mahogany chair was pinched off by him, showing that he was not at peace.
Xia Xuan shook his hands irritably, threw away the sawdust in his hands, got up and paced back and forth in the room.
His brows were furrowed, his face was constantly changing, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.
After a long time, Xia Xuan suddenly stopped and sighed heavily.
Then, he got up and headed for the second floor of the castle.
A few minutes later, Xia Xuan was already standing beside Xia Zu, bent slightly, and said in a respectful low voice:
"...The general thing is like this. I am responsible for this matter. It is the fault of my subordinates. Please punish me, the general."
After finishing speaking, he actually knelt on the ground on one knee.
This small detail is enough to see the absolute status Xia Zu has in Gaoling Xia Clan.
"Get up."
Xia Zu slowly opened his eyes, staring at the dark night sky lightly.
He was silent for a long time, and then slowly said: "You are not to blame for what happened tonight, Qiao Yu's thoughts...in fact, there is nothing wrong with it, it's just that he wrongly underestimated Qin Mo's strength.
Twenty-three years old, able to kill the second level easily, it seems that this talent is the son of Qingyang Li's generation who has painstakingly cultivated. "
Hearing this, Xia Xuan frowned, raised his head suddenly, and his eyes changed rapidly.
"General, you mean that Qin Mo's surname is not Qin, but Li?"
"Um."
"Hiss... But I have carefully checked the three generations of his ancestors, did he belong to a thousand-year-old family..." Xia Xuan frowned.
But he had just spoken halfway, Xia Zu interrupted it, and said lightly:
"It's just a few fake documents and a fake background. For the Qingyang Li family, it couldn't be easier."
Obviously, he still doesn't feel that Qin Mo has the current strength, and it depends on himself.
How could this be possible without the support of various resources from the Millennium Family?
Oh, genius?
It’s just a way to fool the world.
Xia Zu raised the corner of his mouth, revealing a touch of sarcasm.
Afterwards, he opened his mouth and said: "Qin Mo let it go for now, but it's just a second level, and it won't cause any trouble.
Although he is young, his talent seems to be very high, but this is precisely his most deadly place. If he wants to grow up slowly, he must have this time, this luck, and this fate!
When he touches the threshold of the king of heaven ten years later, the general situation of the world has changed long ago, so there is no need to take it to heart. "
Xia Zu's eyes became sharper, and the depths of his eyes seemed to reflect a grand picture that could sweep the world.
As far as the eye can see, it is the world.
The current Qin Mo will not be taken seriously by him.
Even if it is the second level, it is the same.
"Go and urge the Council of Elders to make adequate preparations as soon as possible. It won't be too long at the border." Xia Zu frowned.
"yes."
Xia Xuan said in a deep voice.
…
…
The next day.
Nine o'clock in the morning.
Li's Manor, in the study.
Qin Mo and Li Mou sat facing each other, with the familiar chessboard in front of them.
After he went out at 6:30 in the morning, he ran all the way and basked in the sun and came here.
The current Qin Mo is different from before. As the deputy director of the Security Bureau, he is very free to go to work or not.
Anyway, only Li Mou is older than him in the Security Bureau, but...
Li Mou didn't take it with him himself.
"You boy, how did you do it?
I just killed a first level a few days ago, and killed a second level yesterday. I have never seen such a terrifying growth rate. "
Li Mou looked at Qin Mo with a strange expression, and his scrutinizing eyes wanted to pierce his heart directly to see what kind of structure was inside.
When it is below S rank, it is fine to grow faster.
But now at this stage, there is a huge gap between one rank and one threshold, but Qin Mo can be promoted so quickly.
This is really unreasonable, he seems to have no bottleneck at all...
How powerful is this gene?
Li Mou really couldn't imagine it.
Facing his question, Qin Mo just smiled and did not explain.
He didn't answer but asked instead: "Brother, has the investigation by the Presbyterian Church not yet come to fruition? After all, it is a millennium world, and this speed...seems a bit slow."
Hearing this, Li Mou glared at him, and said loudly: "You are omnipotent when you are a thousand-year-old family? Besides, it has only been investigated for less than half a month."
"Ahem." Qin Mo rubbed his nose angrily.
Seeing his appearance, Li Mou couldn't help but snorted coldly, and then said slowly: "Don't worry, it will take another three to five days at most, and there will be great progress."
"The Presbyterian Church sent out a large number of disciples and conducted a detailed investigation on those free men. According to some common points, they found clues.
However, when we continued to investigate along the clues, our people suddenly lost contact. "
"Lost contact?" Qin Mo frowned.
Li Mou's face was also serious, nodded and said: "Well...Actually, the loss of contact is just a consolation, and there is a high probability that it was wiped out by someone with a heart.
However, this also shows that the disciples have detected the core of each other, and they are not far from the truth. "
"Where was the last place we lost contact?" Qin Mo continued to ask.
"It was in Jiuyuan County, two days ago."
"Nine original..."
Qin Mo murmured in a low voice, quickly mobilized the map of Daqin in his mind, and quickly found the location of Jiuyuan County.
This county is in the northeast of the imperial capital, and the straight-line distance is about 2,500 kilometers.
Jiuyuan County is surrounded by three great families, namely the Qingyang Li family, the Changping Liu family, and the Gaoling Xia family that has suddenly risen in the past hundred years.
If you look at it so roughly, the people behind the scenes of Tiandihui must be inseparable from the aristocratic family.
"The scope has already been locked, so it only needs to be continuously reduced. The Presbyterian Council is also very interested in the sudden increase in the strength of those free men, and will definitely work hard.
They speculated that the other party should have some kind of means to break through the situation quickly, but such means violated the natural laws of heaven and earth and would definitely have flaws.
The world is like this, where there is black, there is white; where there is yin, there is yang; where there is gain, there is bound to be loss. "Li Mou said slowly.
Qin Mo nodded, he agrees with this.
"All right, if you have any news, remember to notify me as soon as possible, and uproot them as soon as possible, so that I can sleep well." He said so.
The behind-the-scenes people of Tiandihui, if they only do things against the Li family of Qingyang and the Security Bureau, that's fine.
But now, they are all going to lay an ambush against him.
Who can bear this?
Qin Mo's normal life was broken just like that.
He just wants to bask in the sun and accumulate some light energy points, so that he can save a little strength for himself, and live a happy life of fishing safely.
But, why do you have to force him?
Qin Mo squinted his eyes, raised his hand and picked up a sunspot, which fell heavily to the very center of the chessboard.
This is the position of Tianyuan.
This one is full of murderous intent!
Just like that, Qin Mo and Li Mou killed several games of chess in a row.
Then, at Qin Mo's strong request, the two went outside to the lawn to bask in the sun and chat for a while.
He did not leave at noon, and stayed here to have lunch with Li Mou and his wife.
It wasn't until three o'clock in the afternoon that he leisurely went to the Security Bureau.
There is nothing going on in the bureau for the time being, Qin Mo just changed to another place to bask in the sun.
This continued until five o'clock in the afternoon, when a warm current surged through his body.
Light energy points: 29 (freely assignable)
