Farmer’s Wife Has Magic Skills

Chapter 739: 739. A Ledger

After returning home, Chu Qingzhi asked Chu Xuhua to take care of Chu Xujin. She went back to her room, got a pen and paper, drew Ge Lihua's portrait, and flew to Tianhe Peak with it.

When she came to the top of the peak, she summoned a lot of birds with the beast control technique, let the birds look at the portrait, and then flew to find people.

Then Chu Qingzhi went to the official road again, summoned the surrounding birds, and helped them search together.

After doing all this, Chu Qingzhi began to look for clues on the official road, as long as there was something wrong, she could determine the problem.

The consciousness is released, covering the surroundings, looking for flaws.

After some searching, Chu Qingzhi finally found the problem, a branch of a tree by the roadside was broken off.

She flew over and took the broken branch in her hand. The cut was very fresh. She looked around, and a little further in, the grass on the ground showed signs of tilting, and it seemed that it had left here.

She walked over following the traces...

After walking about the length of a street, the traces stopped abruptly and were gone.

There are forests around here, and there is no trace of movement on the ground. There can be no secret passage, but the other party used lightness kung fu to fly away with people here.

This was simply looking for a needle in a haystack. Chu Qingzhi couldn't continue to follow it. After thinking for a while, she flew to a nearby mountain to see if she could find some clues.

However, nothing can be seen here except mountains and forests.

There was really no other way, Chu Qingzhi sat down cross-legged, raised her fingers, and began to count. When she was counting, her slender and white fingers were surrounded by bright aura, as beautiful as starlight.

This is an advanced spell, and with her current cultivation, performing it will exhaust her spiritual power, and even damage her body in severe cases, so she will not use it easily.

After coming over for a while, the aura of her fingers slowly faded back, Chu Qingzhi was slightly relieved, Li Hua was fine, the direction was in the southwest, that is, the direction of Shuiyun County.

She transferred the last trace of spiritual power in her body and immediately flew to Shuiyun County.

After flying to Shuiyun County, several birds flew towards her, and under the guidance of the birds, Chu Qingzhi came to a house called Yunzhai.

Chu Qingzhi flew to the roof and looked around.

The mansion was quiet, with no lights or even movement, as if there was no one there.

The bird landed on Chu Qingzhi's shoulder, suddenly flew up, flew towards the window of a room, and finally landed on the window.

Chu Qingzhi had used up her spiritual power just now, and she needed to recover her spiritual power before acting. Otherwise, if she was surrounded by a large number of people, she might be in danger.

So she found a place, recovered her spiritual power, and planned to act again later.

...

In the dungeon.

Ling Yanjiang was tied to a wooden frame, and the bandaged wound on his body leaked blood, which stained his clothes, "You let my junior sister go, otherwise I won't say anything."

Qi Donghao sat on the chair, staring at Ling Yanjiang slyly, "As long as you tell me the whereabouts of the ledger, I will release your little junior sister immediately."

Ling Yanjiang stared at the man on the chair bitterly, "Do you think I'm stupid? As soon as I tell the whereabouts of the ledger, it will be our death immediately."

Qi Donghao looked like "I give you the right to choose", "Then we are deadlocked like this?"

Ling Yanjiang threatened, "Let me tell you, my little junior sister is the future general's wife's sister-in-law. If you dare to touch her, even if I give you the account book, you will not live long."

Qi Donghao was slightly taken aback, Tang Jinghong was not easy to provoke, if they really did, they would definitely not have a good life, but he did not believe Ling Yanjiang's words, Ge Lihua was only the daughter of a merchant in northern Xinjiang, how could she have anything to do with Tang Jinghong?

He waved to the person standing behind him, "Go and investigate Ge Lihua."

"Yes, master."

Seeing Qi Donghao go to investigate, Ling Yanjiang breathed a sigh of relief. These people in front of him are killers raised by the Jiedu Envoy of Dongling Mausoleum City, and the account books they want are the money account books of the Jiedu Envoy's transactions with various places.

Qi Donghao moved his chin lightly, and looked at Ling Yanjiang gloomyly, "Although I went to investigate, I will definitely get the account book. Ling Yanjiang, I will give you a little more time. If you don't say anything, then your little junior sister's innocence may not be guaranteed."

Ling Yanjiang panicked, "What do you mean?"

"That's what you understand." Qi Donghao said to the people behind him, "Go to the street and find some strong men and come back, and take good care of Miss Ge later."

"Yes, master."

"How dare you!" Ling Yanjiang struggled instantly, his face flushed red, and the veins on his forehead were bulging, "Qi Donghao, you must die!"

Qi Donghao didn't take it seriously, people like them would soon die, "As long as you hand over the account book, I will let you go."

"Impossible!" Ling Yanjiang yelled, his family members had been persecuted to death by the Jiedu envoy, if he handed over the ledger, their family members would die in vain.

Ling Yanjiang's second brother, Ling Yanjing, was the magistrate of Lingcheng, and he got a ledger by accident. At first he didn't know what it was, but after a series of framing and persecution, he realized that what he got was the ledger of Jiedushi.

At that time, the family members died and were injured, how could he hand over the account book.

So Ling Yanjing asked Ling Yanjiang to go to Beijing with the account book, and find a way to hand over the account book to the emperor to avenge his family.

However, no one knows who leaked this matter. Ling Yanjiang was hunted down as soon as he left Lingcheng. He had no choice but to hide the account book. Fortunately, he hid the account book. Otherwise, he would have died long ago. He just caused Li Hua to suffer, and he was very sorry.

Qi Donghao sat on the chair with a blank expression on his face, "The person will be found immediately, and you don't have much time to think."

Ling Yanjiang is like a desperate beast at the moment, he has a ferocious face, but he is tightly restrained, staring at Qi Donghao, as if as soon as he breaks free from the restraints, he will tear him to pieces.

Qi Donghao got up, "Look at him, whenever he changes his mind, call me."

"Yes, master."

Ling Yanjiang reached out to grab Qi Donghao, "Don't go, don't go..."

Qi Donghao didn't even look at Ling Yanjiang, and left the dungeon straight away. With such a tough bone, he won't give in without resorting to any means.

Ling Yanjiang shouted, "Stop!!!"

His roar echoed in the pitch-black dungeon, and it sounded a bit haunting.

His voice caught Chu Qingzhi's attention. Her facial features were sharp, different from ordinary people, and she could hear voices far away, even underground.

It turned out that people were hidden underground, no wonder the house was pitch black and there was no one there.

At this time, half of Chu Qingzhi's spiritual power had recovered. She thought about it, the house was more complicated than she imagined, and she should wait until she recovered to a perfect state before acting.
