Talk about the world of mortals in detail

Hui Mian didn't say anything more. He gently tossed the scales in his hand to make them float in front of him, and then he held the gold pen and wrote a few golden words in the air.

The fog hides its traces!

The moment the four golden inscriptions fell, golden chains stretched out from the extension of the strokes of the inscriptions, completely wrapping the scales. Then, with a flash of golden light, everything dissipated.

Yi Shuyuan nodded slightly, probably understanding what Hui Mian meant, but there was no need to ask more, Hui Mian had his own wisdom and methods.

"Sir, I'll go first."

"Go ahead and be careful!"

"Um!"

Hui Mian responded, then picked up the scales with Yufeng and left Ao Po's side. As the latter watched, he flew high into the sky. By the time it turned into a stream of light and flew towards the North Sea, both the pen and the scales had been collected. stand up.

Ao Po withdrew his gaze, and his body merged into the wind. The invisible dragon's body swayed with the wind, setting off a gust of air and flying towards the previous Haiyu County.

——

In Haiyu County, somewhere in the grass in the dark night, a spotted dog barked at the grass.

After the dog barked a few times, several domestic dogs from nearby people gathered over and started roaring at the grass.

"Woof woof woof woof woof" "Woof woof woof woof."

The barking of the dog was so noisy that it woke up some residents who had already fallen asleep. Some people put on their clothes and opened the door to the courtyard to see what was going on.

"What are you shouting for so late at night?"

Some neighbors also came out and commented after hearing the sound.

"Could it be a thief?" "What's in the grass over there?"

The barking of dogs and the deliberately loud shouting of men in several surrounding houses finally woke up someone in the grass.

The man in night clothes trembled and suddenly woke up. The barking dogs and human voices around him seemed to be very close. He reached out and touched his face. The mask was still there. Then he immediately stood up from the ground and jumped with a sudden jump. rise.

After the sound of his clothes breaking through the air, the man jumped over the wall and flew away faster than ordinary people could react.

This incident scared many dogs back, and even shocked some residents who saw it.

"Oh, what is that black shadow?" "Whoosh, it flew from the grass into the sky and disappeared!"

"It can't be" "Hush, I can't tell!"

"No wonder the dogs are barking."

"Don't say it, don't say it, put some incense on the ancestral tablet, and go to sleep!"

The nearby residents were talking nervously, but it was late at night after all, and many people didn't stay outside for long.

The man in black was currently on the roof of a slightly higher building, leaning down under the attic window and panting nervously.

The man listened to the voices of residents and the barking of dogs not far away, and kept looking around. The strange and terrifying man seemed to have disappeared. He thought he was dead just now.

Who is this person and why would he let me go?

The man calmed down for a while, then moved his hands and feet slightly, and struggled to get up. After much hesitation, he did not choose to leave immediately, but jumped on the roof towards the county government office.

With the man's light kung fu and foot power, he arrived at the county government office in a short time, but the government officials here obviously couldn't find him, so he easily landed at the official residence in the rear.

In the Haiyu County Yamen, although the night was already deep, the county magistrate Guan Xinrui was not sleepy at all.

At this moment, in the study room of Guan Xinrui's official residence, he and his father-in-law looked at the scales in Guan Xinrui's hand with expressions of wonder.

The scales have a light yellow and translucent feel. One of them holds it and the other reaches out to touch it. The weight is neither light nor heavy. They can feel the ice-cold and very smooth texture of the scales.

"Hehehehe, he handed over a foreigner with a little intimidation. He is considered smart and does not need to use other methods!"

As Guan Xinrui said this, the old father-in-law on the side also had a smile on his face. He stared at the scales with his eyes intently. He glanced at his son-in-law from the corner of his eye and was very satisfied with him.

At this time, a government servant came outside the study carrying a basin of water.

"Sir, the water is here!"

Guan Xinrui and the old man hid their scales behind their backs and said something to the door.

"Come in and put the basin on the ground."

The Yamen servant then opened the door and came in. He placed the wooden basin that was mostly filled with water on the ground and looked at the magistrate and the old man.

"My lord, do you have any other instructions?"

Guan Xinrui shook his head.

"No, close the door when you go out. By the way, tell me to go down and be more vigilant. The murderer is still on the run. We must not let these people go unpunished!"

"yes!"

The yamen servant left with his hands and closed the door of the study, while the two people in the room looked at each other and smiled.

"Try it quickly!"

"well!"

Both of them paused at the edge of the basin. Guan Xinrui threw the scales into the water. The water surface seemed to cause some ripples, but it was not too exaggerated.

"Good son-in-law, wait until I turn off the lights and take a look!"

The old man walked to the table and blew out the oil lamp on the table.

The next moment, the blooming light of the scales in the basin suddenly became obvious. Under the action of the water flow, there seemed to be scale-shaped ripples swaying in the wooden basin.

"Father-in-law, look!"

Guan Xinrui pointed around. The light was also reflected from the basin to the surroundings. There were scaly ripples on the walls, the beams above and the tops. After looking at it for a while, it seemed as if there was a huge dragon coiling around the house. Twisting.

"Baby, what a baby!" "These are really dragon scales!"

"Xian son-in-law, you must seize the opportunity!"

"Hahahahaha, thank you father-in-law for your advice, how could my son-in-law miss it!"

Both of them were very excited at the moment, but Guan Xinrui couldn't help but said.

"The key is how to get the other two scales? Not to mention Zhou Tailou's owner, the whereabouts of the remaining one are unknown!"

"If you get one, you get two! It won't be a problem for Zhou Xingwang. You are an official and he is a citizen. The Zhou family's property must rely on your parents as officials. If you use some means, you don't have to worry about him being unyielding. It's just that , they are all from the country, and they all have a good reputation. They can’t see you when you look up, so leave some room for them!”

Guan Xinrui nodded slightly.

"My son-in-law understands that it's best for him to be sensible. If he doesn't know how to praise me, don't blame me for being unkind!"

On the roof of the study, a man in night clothes had already secretly moved a few tiles, and there were holes the size of cat's eyes. He was lying on it, looking down through the holes, and naturally he saw the scales falling in the water. The radiance that emanates.

The feeling presented in the study room below is so beautiful that people can't help but be obsessed with it. This thing is indeed a treasure, maybe it really is a dragon scale!

At this moment, the county magistrate Guan Xinrui was about to put his hand into the basin, as if he wanted to take out the scales, but just as he got closer, his heart suddenly jumped.

"ah"

Guan Xinrui exclaimed, making the old man next to him also startled.

"Xian son-in-law, what's wrong with you?"

The room was dark, but Guan Xinrui's uneasy look was still very obvious under the light of the scales. He did not speak immediately, but carefully approached the basin cabinet again, and then relaxed slightly.

A false alarm.

"No, my son-in-law was just now."

When he said this, Guan Xinrui's eyes suddenly widened when he looked at the basin. A reflection was reflected in the basin, which was a pale-faced woman.

"ah--"

Guan Xinrui's feet went weak, he was so frightened that he fell to the ground, and then suddenly looked up.

Since the reflection is in the water, does that mean it is above?

"My dear son-in-law, my dear son-in-law, what's wrong with you?"

At this moment, Liu Yuanwai, who was beside Guan Xinrui, hurriedly came over to help him, and at the same time followed his gaze and looked up.

The man on the roof of the study was also shocked at this moment. The two people below suddenly raised their heads. Naturally, he felt that he had been discovered.

Tonight, this was the second time that the man was discovered while hiding. He couldn't help but panic. He stood up and ran away in an instant. He stepped on the roof tiles several times.

"Uh-huh, oops"

Guan Xinrui below, who was already frightened, jumped even more frightened by the movement above, while Liu Yuanwai on the side immediately shouted.

"There are people up there, there are people, they are coming soon, there are thieves, there are assassins -"

Liu Yuanwai's shouts immediately alerted the yamen servants. Many people looked up and looked up. The escape movements of the man in black were naturally noticed.

“How brave——” “Thieves, please leave——”

Outside there were shouts and chases from the police officers, and several government officers came into the study to inquire.

"Sir, Mr. Liu, are you okay?"

Guan Xinrui's face was pale, but he had tried his best to calm down a lot and stood up with the help of the old man.

"No, it's okay."

Liu Yuanwai opened the door and looked outside, angrily scolding several government officials who came.

"How do you protect the county government? The thieves have already reached the top. If you, the adults, hadn't been quick and noticed in advance, something would have happened. Go and catch the thieves!"

"Uh, yes, yes, but many brothers have already gone after me. We have to stay here to protect you. Sir, are you really okay?"

The leading yamen servant outside stretched his neck to look inside and saw Guan Xinrui sitting on the couch. Although he was in shock, he was obviously fine, so he felt relieved.

Guan Xinrui was also calming down and said outside.

"I'm fine. That thief."

"Don't worry, sir, I've already gone after him."

"Well, please retreat first. Don't go too far. Just stay outside!"

Several government officials looked at each other, and the leader accepted the order.

"yes!"

As the door was closed again, Guan Xinrui became nervous again. He hurried to the desk to pick up a flint, and struck it several times in a panic before finally lighting the lamp.

When the room was illuminated by the bright lights, Guan Xinrui's heart seemed to have gained some warmth due to the flames, and some color gradually returned to his face.

"Wonderful son-in-law, you."

Liu Yuanwai looked at Guan Xinrui and felt that he seemed to be too frightened.

"Father-in-law, what did you see in the basin?"

After hearing this, Liu Yuanwai subconsciously walked to the basin to take a look. The scales were in the water. Even if the lamp was lit at this moment, the faint brilliance of the scales could still be seen, but it was not so obvious.

"I saw dragon scales."

Guan Xinrui took a few steps cautiously, but didn't dare to stick his head out.

"Father-in-law, please take out the dragon scales."

Although Liu Yuanwai was slightly confused, he nodded. He pulled his sleeves and reached out to take out the scales from the basin. He swung the water around and couldn't help but admire it with amazement.

"Oh, what a wonderful treasure. I'm a little reluctant to part with it!"

Guan Xinrui looked at the scales, then carefully approached the water basin, stretched his head and looked inside, and saw that the basin was a basin of water. He got closer and looked at it for a while, and then he felt relieved.

"call"

But while taking a deep breath, Guan Xinrui secretly prayed for God's blessing in his heart.
