The waterway is dark and the air is filled with the smell of moisture and corruption.

Dirty water kept oozing out from the ceiling above my head, falling on the filthy stone platform.

Dong!

Dong!

Some of them fell into the sewage ditch in the center and made a crisp sound.

In the quiet waterway, the sound of rapid footsteps suddenly sounded.

Hu Yue'er was surrounded by an invisible barrier, her body was spotless and she walked quietly.

Behind her, the royal mansion guard followed closely, with a crude protective mask on his face, covering his mouth and nose.

The group walked quickly in the waterway, and everyone looked serious and had no intention of chatting.

Hu Yue'er came out this time and brought a total of eleven people, and now only seven people are left.

The other four people died at the hands of the mysterious man in black robe.

Although she did not see the latter attacking, Hu Yue'er knew that the murderer was the other party.

A powerful monk has countless ways to kill people.

Hu Yue'er walked in front with a gloomy face. She glanced at a huge rat's head in the gap in the waterway wall in front of her.

The mouse's hair was pitch black, and half of its body poked out from the hole, about the size of a piglet.

It was not panicked when it saw everyone. Its pair of button-sized eyes flashed green in the darkness.

"Grandman, small..."

When the escorts of the royal palace saw the rat, their faces changed suddenly. They drew their swords to block Hu Yue'er. The leader of the captain quickly spoke up to remind him.

But before he could finish his words, a fireball the size of a millstone appeared in the darkness, emitting a scorching light, extremely dazzling.

The waterway in Chang'an is not big, so you can only walk upright alone.

The location of the mouse was less than three meters away from everyone.

The fireball was so fast that even the mouse was hit without even reacting.

Squeak!

After the orange flame touched the mouse, it spread throughout the body in an instant.

The hot flames kept burning the black rat that had turned into a monster.

The latter kept wailing in his mouth, struggling on the ground, and finally fell into the sewage ditch.

But the flames did not go out as expected and continued to burn until the black rat stopped moving.

The air gradually filled with a light charred smell of barbecue, mixed with the original scent of rottenness, and the taste was really hard to describe.

In other words, the masks worn by the royal guards were mixed with a lot of spices and medicinal materials to suppress the strange smell.

Otherwise, those present will suffer losses.

Squeak!

The flames disappeared, and before the royal guards were happy, more rat cries came from around them.

Immediately afterwards, pairs of green eyes emerged from the front, back, left and right of the crowd.

"This, that's too much!"

The escort of the royal palace looked at the dense green light around him, and felt his scalp numb and cold sweat broke out from behind.

"A group of animals thought it would be a success?"

Hu Yue'er faced the surround, and her eyes were filled with red light.

The demon rats hiding in the dark suddenly changed their eyes and they fought with their own tribes.

The guards of the royal palace who had already had the ambition to die saw this amazing scene and each saw each other.

They looked secretly at the "man" ahead, and their hearts became even more awe.

"let's go."

Hu Yue'er's calm voice sounded from the front, and the escort of the royal palace hurriedly followed.

After leaving the rat demon territory, Hu Yue'er suddenly spoke, "I didn't calculate the other party's reaction and strength, which caused the death of four people. I'm sorry."

This time she insisted on coming over to confirm her identity.

The four dead people deliberately attracted the attention of the enemy to cover up her existence.

Although this kind of task cannot be without casualties.

But Hu Yue'er still thinks that she has a lot to do with her and feels sorry for the dead.

"No, no, you can't blame you for this!"

When the guards of the royal palace heard this, they were shocked and hurriedly said, "In this ghost place, even if they don't die today, they will die tomorrow. The little people have already made this preparation."

"And Lao Lin and the others died very valuable. At least they can help you and the prince and contribute to the people of Chang'an."

"Even if we die today, we will be happy if we go underground!"

Hu Yue'er looked a little moved when she heard this. She saw through life and death and said it easily, just a simple sentence.

But when it is really time to die, who can really stick to that will?

These guards in front of us are just the most ordinary people.

But she saw the most extraordinary qualities in them.

"Lao Lin and the others are all good, so are you!"

Hu Yue'er wanted to apologize, but was comforted in the end.

She wanted to say something, but she only had a dry sentence when she spoke.

However, these guards were flattered, and they all smiled and were refreshed, sweeping away the dullness of staying in the waterway for too long.

Hu Yue'er came out of the waterway in the kitchen of the royal palace, arranged the accompanying guards, and then came to Ji Longque.

She briefly explained what happened during the period.

"Lao Lin and the others followed me when they were still in the imperial guards."

When Ji Longque heard that someone had died, he sighed: "It is not considered as a humiliation of their identity when they can die on the front line. I believe that there will be no regrets when they arrive in the underworld."

Hu Yueer nodded, "Do they have family? I want to see you."

"No more." Ji Longque shook his head, "Lao Lin and his family all died last year."

Hu Yueer suddenly looked up, her eyes kept looking at the other person, and finally sighed heavily.

"They are all good!"

Ji Longque agreed with the key point, "They are indeed all good!"

Hu Yue'er confirmed the identity of the man in black robe, and these days Ji Longque also prepared the information of the demon.

So, she told the latter that night that she planned to leave the day after tomorrow.

In order to express his apology to Lao Lin and the others, Hu Yueer said that she could help take some people away.

Ji Longque did not refuse this after confirming that there would be no accident.

When Hu Yue'er left, Ji Longque gave a list of eight people.

Except for Ji Longque's son and daughter, the rest are relatives of the guards of the royal palace.

Hu Yue'er needs to take so many people away, so she naturally needs to disguise her.

She casts spells to turn the extra people into cattle and sheep.

No accident happened along the way.

Hu Yue'er and everyone returned to Moon Valley without any danger.

She didn't bother to rest, so she immediately came to Cai Xu to tell her about her discovery in the city.

"It's quiet again in the mansion."

Ji Longque sat in the pavilion in the backyard, looking at the koi in the pool in front of him, and sighed a little.

"Does the king reluctant to part with Mr. Hu?"

Zeng Shen stood beside him, and he could see that his prince valued the Xia envoy very much.

"Although Mr. Hu is a foreign race, he is compassionate and kind to our human race. Of course, I want to keep him by my side."

Ji Longque nodded calmly, "But the real key is that when the other party is there, I feel that everything in the future has hope."

"What I want to leave behind is the hope he represents, not just one of them."

He looked up at the guard commander, "Why did you only send Xiaoman away this time? Will Qingniang not leave?"
