Chapter 17: Temptation

Early the next morning.
"Don't talk later." Li Jinglong specifically urged Hong Jun to wake up.
In autumn, the maple trees planted on the side of the patio have turned red, but the sycamore still shows a lush color, reflecting red and green, and the pond reflects the blue sky and white clouds, which is quite colorful.
Two corpses, one seriously injured the fox, were placed side by side in the patio. The last one seemed to be the youngest and was injured. He was first chopped into his shoulder bone by Hongjun's flying knife, and then burnt to the hind legs by the flame of Artest The fur cracked, revealing flesh and blood. Finally, the arrow that Li Jinglong shot was nearly fatal, penetrated its lower abdomen, and then stab it from the back. Mo Zhigen's arrow had a barb, which could only be pulled in reverse with the arrow feathers. The little fox wailed endlessly.
Finally, Hong Jun gave it the hemostatic elixir of Yaojin Palace, and the little fox retrieved his life.
"This is the highest way." Qiu Yongsi walked a few steps in the patio, pointed to the largest one, and said, "This one was killed by Morigen when he went out. It is not clear. This one is the youngest living."
The little fox closed his eyes tightly, motionless.
"Should I put you in front of Hu Tongling and let him see what you look like now, Jin Yun?" Li Jinglong glanced at the little fox and said, "Is it painful?"
The little fox suddenly opened his eyes, but turned his head.
"Jin Yun, Tu Ying, Zi Ying." Li Jinglong threw down a stack of papers, and above them were the sales contracts of the three girls who were missing in the poem column last night. "The ancestral family is Xinyang, who is 16 years old. , To find a place to stay. "
"If you are just a spiritual creature between heaven and earth, if you cultivate from birth, you will be good, but I will expel you from Changan at most." Li Jinglong paused and sat down on the steps outside the front hall. Go ahead and watch the little fox's eyes, saying one by one, "But, why do you want to kill?"
The little fox did not answer.
"Who is the body?" Li Jinglong said coldly, "said."
The little fox remained silent.
"If you don't say it, I can find it out naturally," Li Jinglong said again. "Now, give you the last chance to tell me who killed the man."
The little fox is still silent, Qiu Yongsi said: "I see it or kill it."
After a long silence, Li Jinglong said: "Just close the case, Yong Si you write a submission, tomorrow morning I will submit Yang Xiang. Today we will first hand it over to Hu Sheng, presumably he has received the military report last night, it is considered a Explain. For the rest, let him take care of it. Later, we will go out separately and shut it up first. "
Morrigan closed the little fox in a cage and placed it in the side yard. Qiu Yongsi put a rune around the cage to prevent it from escaping. However, this move was purely unnecessary. Even if the little fox wanted to escape, he had no strength . As the crowd gathered, Artest frowned: "Will it believe it?"
Hong Jun: "?"
"Now can speak." Li Jinglong Zhao Hongjun said.
Hong Jun was trying to ask what happened, but Li Jinglong took the initiative to say: "Send it to the Longwu Army, and then monitor the movement at any time. It is much simpler than checking a demon like a needle in a haystack in the palace."
Mo Zhigen said: "But what if no one comes to rescue it?"
Only then did Hongjun understand, and he was so smart! Li Jinglong was only trying to deceive the little fox, pretending that the case was closed, but the real purpose was to attract more monsters!
"You will lead the snake out of the hole!" Hong Jun said.
Four people in the hall were speechless. Li Jinglong nodded and said to Hongjun: "Well, smart."
A moment later, Li Jinglong again said: "Someone will come to the rescue, to the utmost, but also kill it. You see, it is very smart, and it can survive to know nothing. Its associates must also know that this wise man will not Let it live too long to avoid leaking. If Hu Sheng let it go, it would be simpler, we just need to track it. "
Hong Jun's brain is no longer enough, there is an illusion, as if these talents in front of him are big monsters.
"This must be a big case." Qiu Yongsi said.
"Let's do it," Li Jinglong said. "I hope I can follow the trick and catch a big one."
Artest, Mo Rigen and Qiu Yongsi's look at Li Jinglong at this moment is different from that of a few days ago, especially after Li Jinglong revealed his hand last night. Li Jinglong got up, and several people wanted to follow, but Li Jinglong said: "You rest, Hongjun and I will return the cat."
"I'll go get some pollen from the soul again." Qiu Yongsi smiled.
Li Jinglong glanced at Qiu Yongsi and nodded, letting Hongjun hold the lion cat and leave with himself.
As soon as the two left, the expressions of the remaining three became different.
"You didn't see it last night," said Mo Rigen. "When the second three-tailed demon fox appeared, he had spared his life to protect Hong Jun and the Longwu Army guards who rushed in. It is really not easy for a mortal to have this guts. "
After thinking about it, Artest took a few steps in the patio and said, "Maybe, can he really take the demon king?"
Qiu Yongsi crouched under the corridor and said helplessly: "In this case, have you said too early?"
"I wanted to leave a few days ago!" Artest was so depressed that he akimbo replied, "Do you know how desperate I am? Ah? Can't I expect something in life?"
"Wow, spit fire Luo Niangong." The carp demon just woke up and was turning over the fish food in the pond, and asked, "You are a gang?"
The three of them had forgotten that there was ears next to the wall, and they were all stunned for a moment, which caused a lot of trouble.
Atelier made a move and said, "Brother Zilong, what kind of fish do you like? I'll buy one for you?"
The carp demon ate fish food and said, "That's not necessary. I want to abstain from practice. Our family Hongjun still has to rely on everyone to take care of me. Today, I will keep my mouth shut."
Everyone was relieved, and the carp demon said, "But ..."
The hearts of the three were raised again.
Only listening to the carp demon continued: "Everyone is so messy now, can't even catch a fox, how do you plan to deal with Changan demon king?"
"Hey, Brother Yu." Artest said, "You are wrong to say that, we are also very kindly afraid of Li Changshi's injury and death ..."
"All beings are equal." Said the carp demon. "The monk who released me back then said, no matter how human or demon, there are things he wants to protect. Is this the truth?"
The three stopped talking.
Qiu Yongsi said: "It is indeed necessary to find an opportunity. I don't need to hide him. It's better to talk to Chang Shi and let everyone talk openly."
After eating the fish food, the carp demon said to himself: "Help Hongjun wash his clothes." So he dragged a washboard to the edge of the well, rolled over Hongjun's shirt panties, and started rubbing panties.
The three of them were said to be hot on their faces. After working for so long as an exorcist, it was not as good to see a carp as a carp.
Early in the morning, Li Jinglong walked ahead, and Hong Jun held the cat and followed, and went to the Madam Qin Kingdom to return the cat first.
"Pay attention to the people in the Qin State Mansion." Li Jinglong Zhao Hongjun said, "A person's look can sometimes reveal a lot of information."
Hong Jun now admires Li Jinglong and feels that he is not easy. How did it get mixed up like this before and was bullied everywhere? Really puzzled. But Zhong Ming once said that everyone has their own perseverance, and many things don't have to be forced.
"But Zhao Zilong often said that I didn't wink." Hong Jun said.
Li Jinglong had to answer: "Life is alive, it's rare to be confused, and it's good, just, don't have to force it. You will talk less later."
As soon as Li Jinglong and Hong Jun took the cat into the wife's house, the porter yelled, "Qing'er is back--!"
"Quickly! Qing'er is home!"
The scene was particularly sensational, and even Li Jinglong was very embarrassed. The housekeeper came out to meet him personally, and Li Jinglong asked, "This is this ..."
Before the question was finished, the cat was snatched by the housekeeper, and the housekeeper was overjoyed: "It is it! Where did you find it ?!"
For a time, the house was like a welcoming visit to His Majesty, and he was singing and dancing, and the servants and servants happily sent the cat out of the main hall. The incense pads brought the jadeite food box, and inside were the delicacies such as sea cucumber and catfish, and another gilt luminous bowl was placed, and the Hetian jade bottle was hand-infused and filled with clear spring water.
The cat ate the marinade bibimbap for two days in the exorcism department, and a bird was fading out, and when he returned to the house, he chewed and ate. It's just like a life.
"Come on to Li Xiaowei!" The butler shouted.
So the maidservants gathered, lined up outside the hall, and prayed inside.
Li Jinglong: "..."
"He is Li Changshi." Hong Jun explained for him.
Li Jinglong's face was extremely ugly. She got up and left, but the butler hurriedly said: "My wife has entered the palace, please be sure to wait until my wife comes back to thank you personally."
Li Jinglong just waved his hand. When Hong Jun was about to leave, Hong Jun hadn't eaten breakfast yet. When he saw a snack on the table, he picked up some gobble and swallowed it. He had already forgotten Li Jinglong's instructions.
"Delicious ... Hmm ..." Hongjun ate and drank tea, Li Jinglong had to say to the housekeeper, "This is my subordinate."
"Dragon and Phoenix among the people! Dragon and Phoenix among the people!" If the housekeeper was not scrupulous, it seemed that he wished to kneel down and kowtow to the two, and then stepped forward to hold Li Jinglong's hand and said, "This time I really want to thank Li Changshi, no I thought you saved our life ... oh ... "
The housekeeper had always seen people talking about people and talking about ghosts. Li Jinglong came over and asked a few days ago. The government was too lazy to take care of him. Excited, immediately incoherent, poked Li Jinglong heart disease.
Li Jinglong's eyes swept across the house, seeing that there was no doubt that the servants of the ghosts, and there were no people with strange appearances, and there was no discovery, he urged Hongjun to eat quickly, and quickly quit.
Hong Jun was drinking tea, beckoning Li Jinglong to wait a moment, and for the first time he had such a good snack, he grabbed a few more.
"I will prepare it for you immediately and send it to the Exorcist Division!" The butler said busy.
Li Jinglong simply smoked on his head, distracting the subject and saying, "When this cat ran out, was there a guest in the house?"
"That night, the concubine, Mrs. Guo Guo and Yang Xiang visited." The housekeeper said, "The house was busy at the time, alas ..."
Li Jinglong's eyebrows twisted suddenly, Hong Jun also heard, stopped the chewing movement and glanced at Li Jinglong.
"Leave after eating." Li Jinglong said.
The butler also wanted to keep guests, but Li Jinglong waved his hand and took Hongjun out with him. The butler also thanked gold and silver. Li Jinglong finally couldn't bear it. He turned around in front of the gate and said to the butler, "There is nothing to thank for the effort.
After finishing, Li Jinglong and Zhao Hongjun said, "The soldiers who fought for blood in the Tang Dynasty on the frontier are only two or two silver soldiers a month, but they do not live as well as a play pet of Mrs. Qin's family. It ’s impossible for anyone else to talk about it. I just do n’t know where these costs come from.

The housekeeper was stabbed so coldly that he was a bit accosted. When he was about to scold Li Jinglong, the two had already left the house and had no general knowledge of the sting.
"As for your skills, I can only look for cats." The steward said yin-yang.
When Li Jinglong could not hear, he and Hongjun went to Dali Temple to check the volume. Hongjun took out the snack in his arms and handed it to Li Jinglong, saying, "Well."
"I don't eat people's fat," Li Jinglong said.
"It's called Minzhimin cake? It tastes really good." Hongjun said, "Try it? I know you must want to eat it. Why do you always have a wrong mouth? This is not good ..."
"It's not that the mouth is not right, I really don't eat!"
The two were pulling on the street. Li Jinglong could n’t get Hongjun at all and could n’t beat him. Many people on Chang’an Street looked at it. I ’m afraid that they would have to talk about it in a short time. Had to take it.
The dim sum brought by Hong Jun is a layer of crystal glutinous rice wrapped in egg yolk, cheese, osmanthus and nectar from the early summer. Li Jinglong said that he would not eat it. After all, his stomach was hungry. People's fat and anointing.
"It's delicious." Hong Jun said.
Li Jinglong: "Well."
Li Jinglong and Hong Jun walked across the long street, and Li Jinglong raised his eyes from time to time, fearing that they might be seen.
Although the Li family had some families in the past, their diet was not as sophisticated as that of the Yang Family. Li Jinglong did a good job while thinking about what the housekeeper said earlier.
"You said, will the big monster be right next to the emperor?" Hong Jun asked again.
Li Jinglong frowned deeply: "If this is the case, your majesty is in danger, in case ..."
"That wouldn't be." Hong Jun turned around, stood on the side of the alley, stopped, and stopped, and said to Li Jinglong, "The world is protected by Ziweixing, even the monsters that are tall and high Directly cast a spell on the emperor. But is this monster, Yang Chengxiang? Or Mrs. Guo Guo? Or is it the concubine? "
"Impossible." Li Jinglong answered without thinking.
"Why is it impossible?" Hong Jun asked blankly. "Isn't this reasonable?"
Hong Jun's words awakened the dreamer instantly, and Li Jinglong was silent for a while.
This guess almost penetrated Li Jinglong's cognition. Is the Prime Minister or Sister Concubine a monster around the monarch? ! Li Jinglong looked at Hong Jun and said, "Go, what are you doing here at the main station?"
Hongjun looked at the noodle stall next to him and Li Jinglong.
Li Jinglong: "..."
Hong Jun: "Look at how well this noodle is made, long history, don't you want to taste it?"
After the stall, the boss was making ramen. Huang Chengcheng's noodles were pulled out of the pot and rolled in boiling water. After the pot was topped, topped with braised pig's trotters, soy beans, dried tofu and other toppings, sprinkled with a handful of ingredients, the fragrance was fragrant.
"Don't you have eaten dim sum?" Li Jinglong said, "Why are you hungry again?" Thinking of Fang Caihongjun's method, when he saw the food, he couldn't move, and if he refused, he might get jokes again, and hurriedly said: "Good, eat."
Li Jinglong nodded and sat down, thinking about digesting the message.
When the two sat down, Li Jinglong was almost covered by a dark cloud. Now I think of it, the cat ’s series of actions seem to suggest something to them, but unfortunately it does not speak, and after smelling the pollen from the soul, it seems that it has forgotten many things, mostly Can only rely on guessing.
If someone in the Yang family is a demon, this matter is not trivial, or that Yang Guozhong's brothers and sisters are all monsters? Li Jinglong didn't even dare to think about it, but thinking about it, he focused on Hong Jun again.
Hongjun has started to eat the third bowl.
"Do you usually eat so much?" Li Jinglong asked.
"When I was growing up," Hong Jun said blankly, "What's wrong with eating more, and not eating your rice."
Li Jinglong was speechless.
"If anyone comes to support you in the future, the money you earn is not enough for you to eat." Li Jinglong turned his eyes, unnaturally.
"I support myself." Hong Jun was sincere, and said, "My father gave me a lot of money. My goal is to eat all the delicious food all over the world. The food on earth is so delicious!"
"world?"
"..."
Hong Jun realized that he had leaked his words, but Li Jinglong was conscious, and no longer asked.
"You all have money." Li Jinglong counted out Tongbao to pay the bill and told him not to eat anymore. He was too afraid to hold it. Hongjun wanted to pay, but Li Jinglong refused, saying, "It's all rich people-one or two Pollen of eight hundred and two silvers, if not rich, will not be an exorcist. "
Three hundred and two hundred two hundred dollars from Soul Pollen has not yet landed, and he spent the rest of his savings on the reconstruction of the Exorcism Division. This time he was eaten by Hong Jun. At least two days of food expenses, he had to wait for next month. Li Jinglong was so sad that he was worried, but Zhao Hongjun said that he had no choice but to grind his teeth.
There are twelve copper coins left. As long as you do n’t go down to the restaurant these days, you will have dinner in the department. Today is 26. It should n’t be a problem until the fifth day of next month.
In the Dali Temple, Hong Junshang came for the first time. He thought it was a temple, but found it to be an ordinary mansion. Officials came and went, the main hall was dark and depressed, and there were screams in the distance. The anger is extremely heavy, people feel uncomfortable when they come in.
It stands to reason that the monster was caught and the body was found. This case should come to an end, but Li Jinglong always felt that the act of the fox demon burning the dead body was suspicious, and he did not want him to pursue it. No matter the cat or the fox demon case, there are a lot of doubts. The more this is, the less the case can be closed. There is always a vague premonition, and there are more intricate mysteries behind it.
The two checked in the poster file room for a long time, and Hong Jun suddenly said, "You look at this?"
Hong Jun is now able to keep up with some of Li Jinglong ’s ideas. Many things seem to be ordinary, and there may be more unusual feelings underneath. Three scholars who came to Changan from Gong County to take the exam have spent several days in the Changan restaurant After spending the money, he ran away without paying the bill. The store received no money, so he reported to Dali Temple. According to the description, the age is between thirty and forty.
"Take away." Li Jinglong took out the paper, went out to go through the formalities, and transferred the case from Dali Temple to the Exorcist Division. When Wen Li looked at the case, he laughed and mocked: "Your exorcism department, besides looking for cats, is debt recovery?"
Li Jinglong didn't know him as well. He stamped the seal and left, and took Hongjun to the Longwu Army.
The outer campus of the Longwu Army is very broad. In the past, Wei Chi Jingde set up a Xuanjia Army for Li Shimin. Over the past 100 years, it has been divided into "Shenwu" and "Longwu". Moving to Luoyang halfway, and then back to Chang'an, the campus is still very impressive. In the morning, the soldiers were on the field and Mo Zhigen, Artei and Qiu Yongsi had already arrived with the cage. Li Jinglong asked Hong Jun to accompany them to wait outside and carried the cage in to see Hu Sheng.
"Hahaha, Li Jinglong caught the demon, take a look! A fox!"
Long Wujun soldiers still joke around from time to time. Presumably Li Jinglong grabbed a fox outside casually, posted a talisman pretentiously, pretended to be a ghost, and then came to ask for help.
"It seems that our long history adults are really not to be seen by colleagues." Artest laughed.
Mo Rigen frowned deeply, and seemed to be very anxious about Li Jinglong's situation. He replied: "It stands to reason that such a smart person should be able to work around.
"Mortal people also have mortal troubles." Qiu Yongsi said, "his knot can only wait for him to solve it."
Hongjun listened to them every day, they could not help listening to the fog, "Can't you make it clear?"
The three looked at Hongjun and all smiled strangely.
"The less you understand, the less trouble you will have." Artest carefully stared at Hong Jun and gently raised Hong Jun's chin with the blue gilt folding fan in his hand. He smiled provocatively and said, "Brothers worry for you, no Okay? "
"Don't pay attention to him." Mo Rigen took Hongjun's shoulders carelessly and pulled him to his side.
Qiu Yongsi said: "Mo Rigen, you're not right. Actually robbed Master Chang Shi?"
Mo Rigen laughed and replied: "He looks like my little brother, what's wrong with this?"
"You still have a younger brother?" Hong Jun wondered.
"I have four younger brothers and two younger sisters." Mo Zhigen replied.
Hong Jun never thought that Mo Rigen was the boss of his family. No wonder he felt like a big brother.
Artest asked gently again: "What happened this morning?"
Hong Jun thought about it for a while, and said something about the morning. It was then that the soldiers of the Longwu Army came over and drove out the crowd beside the schoolyard, saying, "Hey! The knife and the gun are not long-eyed, don't squat on the schoolyard, just walk away!"
Hong Jun was dressed in a suit he bought casually after he arrived in Chang'an. Despite his luxurious clothing, Artai was a Hu, Mo Zhigen was dressed as an hunter, and Qiu Yongsi was another scribe. These four people stand together, how strange it looks. Wen Yan retreated a little, and when the soldiers walked away, they laughed at the rest of them: "Li Jinglong's freak man."
This remark caused a burst of laughter, and Hong Jun was angry, and took two steps, but Mo Rigen pressed his shoulder.
"What are you doing?" Qiu Yongsi said, "Don't bother yourself."
Mo Zhigen did not speak, but found a copper coin and threw it to Artest. With a look of doubt, Mozhigen picked up a long bow on the weapon rack, pulled out three arrows, and held it, standing in the middle of the schoolyard. .
At that time, Li Jinglong finished talking about what happened last night, and Hu Sheng was shocked.
"You ... really serious?" Hu Sheng said.
Li Jinglong replied: "Could it be that I still colluded with witnesses who witnessed last night to deceive you?"
Hu Sheng said: "But this ... is unbelievable! Do you mean that this fox is a woman leaning on the poem?"
"It's a fox demon," Li Jinglong said coldly. "That's the Jinyun you frequent."
"Nonsense!" Hu Shengdao said, "Li Jinglong, you ..."
Li Jinglong replied: "Believe it or not, I will give it to you. At that time, the case of the disappearance of three girls in the poem column will be found. When Dali Temple investigates, you will always be found on your head."
Hu Sheng suddenly realized an extremely serious problem-he and Jin Yun got along well, although this matter was not publicized, but the old bustard, companion, and the girls had never seen him in the poem column, Jin Yun must also be facing in the ordinary days. Others have said. There are also sachets and other things that she gave to her in the room, and she will eventually find her on the head.
Li Jinglong came to such a trick, it was almost a dilemma.
"Okay, General Xiaofei." Hu Sheng smiled instead, and said, "I used to look down on you." After saying that, his eyes turned to the fox, and countless thoughts turned under his heart. Although I do n’t know what medicine Li Jinglong sold in the gourd, Jin Yun ’s whereabouts are unknown. Dali Temple checked it, and he was bound to be entangled every day.
If you really mean a demon, then kill the fox in front of Dali Temple, and you can take the opportunity to explain that you are assisting Li Jinglong to catch the demon, and he is standing in front of him, so he can get rid of the official. Sin.
"Yes." Hu Sheng said, "If Dali Temple comes over, it will be explained by the officer. Then it is said that they must not go to you."
Li Jinglong casually said: "I will naturally come to close the case, only to investigate."
At the same time, there was another noise outside, Li Jinglong frowned, and leaned in front of the window to look, Hu Sheng said: "You brought someone over?"
Li Jinglong quickly opened the door and walked quickly. I saw that the schoolyard was surrounded by water, but it was Morigen and a school captain who were testing archery. The dust settled. The target of Morigen's arrows was silent. Every time the captain made a shot, it was a big hit.
After shooting the three arrows, Mo Rigen pumped three more, gestured to Artest, and yelled to everyone: "The shooting target is incomprehensible, two tricks for our younger brother?"
Artest held a folding fan in his hand, placed a coin on it, and shook his hand gently, saying, "Go!"
The copper coin flew into the air, buzzing, and Hong Jun realized that the flying knife held in his hand was thrown, and shouted, "Mid!"
Flying knife shot, "ding" hit the coin, the coin buzzed and turned wildly, turned into a dazzling light ball in the sunlight, and flew towards the corner of the school field!
The captain knew that Mo Zhigen was going to shoot the coin, but just pulled the bow, but could not catch the flight track of the coin, and he could not help shaking.
Immediately afterwards, Hongjun issued another flying knife. The flying knife first hit the eaves on the eaves, then flew back, and hit the coin for the second time.
Suddenly, the third flying knife disengaged, stopped the copper money to go, hit it, and sounded again, sending it to a few feet above the sky!
"It's your turn." Hong Jun raised his hand and closed the flying knife, laughing.
Mo Zhigen had already drawn a long bow, the captain bent his bow and arrow, and sweat fell on his forehead. The two looked up at the same time, looking at the humming coin. At this time, the coin had become a small black spot, just waiting for it to fall The arrows will be released at the same time!
As the copper coins flew higher and higher, a smile appeared on the corner of Mo Rigen's mouth. When he was about to loosen the string, he flew an arrow by the side and chased him straight away. He shot through the middle hole of the copper coin and took it straight down. "Huh" nailed firmly in the corner of the school ground.
Thousands of people on the school ground turned their heads at the same time, and they saw Li Jinglong holding a long bow, standing side by side with Hu Sheng at the height of the Longwujun Yamen steps.
"Go!" Said Li Jinglong. "How brave it is to fight bravely?"
The subordinates each collected their weapons and followed Li Jinglong, leaving with a big swing. Li Jinglong's face was uncertain and he didn't speak all the way. Hong Jun was uneasy. When he returned to the Exorcist Division, Li Jinglong said to all his subordinates: "You are exorcists, and your skills are higher than mortals. Glorious? "
Everyone talked about it for a while, and the heart wasn't meant to give you a breath. If they didn't appreciate it, they dispersed. Li Jinglong also said: "Starting tonight, go to the Longwu Army station to ambush and prepare to ambush the big fish."
"it is good--"
"Observe--"
Qiu Yongsi made a wink, meaning to see it, the fart patted on the horse's feet, but Hong Jun scratched his head and laughed.
The night was covered with dark clouds, and after Li Jinglong commanded all the people from the investigation that day, he took them to the Longwu military station.
