Chapter 109: The Past of Baiyue
Seeing Wei Zhuang walking towards the old man, the guards with long swords in their arms became vigilant, and the long swords in their hands faintly had the posture of being unsheathed, as if as long as Wei Zhuang dared to continue to approach like this, they would not hesitate to make a move on Wei Zhuang. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Seeing this, Wei Zhuang just smiled a little disdainfully, and still walked towards the old man unhurriedly
"Stop" Just when those guards were about to make a move, the old man said lightly, hearing this, these guards quickly stopped their behavior, and after reacting, a trace of cold sweat dripped from the foreheads of many guards, and when they thought that they were going to do something to Wei Zhuang in the quicksand just now, these guards also felt afraid for a while, respectfully let go of Wei Zhuang's way, bowed their heads and retreated, and continued to guard the surroundings.
"What is Lord Wei Zhuang looking for me for?" the old man asked with his hands behind his back.
"You have made meritorious deeds in Baiyue, and Xueyi Hou is your top boss, I think you can tell me something about this symbol from Baiyue" As he spoke, Wei Zhuang walked over to the old man and stood up, handing the piece of step with the Baiyue symbol painted with the Baiyue symbol to the old man.
"This is, the symbol of Baiyue, the blood oath of death" Seeing this, a look of surprise flashed in the old man's eyes.
"It seems that you do know something," Wei Zhuang curled the corners of his mouth
"This symbol represents the agreement of life and death, and it is also related to a rumor, a rumor about a treasure," the old man said.
"What kind of treasure," Wei Zhuang asked
"I don't know what it is, otherwise it wouldn't have been a rumor, and of course it's not groundless, maybe someone knows what kind of treasure it is, but it seems that the people who have seen this treasure are dead," the old man said
"Tell me everything you know," Wei Zhuang said with some dissatisfaction
"I only know that this is a treasure about the Fire Rain Villa, back then, a strange vein was found in the land of Baiyue, producing a large number of fiery red jade, people call this kind of agate Fire Rain Agate"
Speaking of this, Wei Zhuang's eyes moved, and he thought of the piece of fire rain agate that Langyu wore all year round
"And this vein happens to be in a fief, and the lord of the fief has also become a huge rich party because of this vein, and that fief is called Huoyu Villa, and the owner of the back cover is called Huoyu Gong" paused, and the old man continued to say, "Huoyu Gong is a good person, and often helps the surrounding villagers, but he is rich and powerful, and he has a reputation, and he will always provoke right and wrong.
"Three wolves with broken hair" Wei Zhuang said in a deep voice, obviously the notorious three wolves with broken hair even Wei Zhuang had heard of it.
"Yes, it's them," the old man said, glancing at Wei Zhuang, "One night, they infiltrated the Fire Rain Villa, set a big fire, and killed everyone, and took all the treasures of the Fire Rain Gong, and it is said that the three of them swore an oath with the blood of death unique to Baiyue at that time, and they must share this wealth equally," the old man said slowly.
In this regard, Wei Zhuang smiled disdainfully and said, "The agreement between jackals is interesting"
"It is true that any agreement is fragile in the face of such wealth, but, for unknown reasons, it was not long before the three of them were found tragically dead in the valley, and when they died, the wealth was gone," said the old man
Hearing this, Wei Zhuang spread the cloth in his hand and said, "Then how do you explain this?"
"I guess it's not over yet," the old man said, glancing at the Blood Oath of Death.
"It seems that people are not dead, and wealth is not missing," Wei Zhuang smiled confidently.
"That's your business, I know," said the old man.
"One more thing. What does Liu Yi have to do with this matter," Wei Zhuang glanced at the old man and said.
"Liu Yi, he was a general in Baiyue at that time, and I was also a soldier at that time," the old man said
"How is he doing?" asked Wei Zhuang
"Showing bravery, when the large army was surrounded by rebels, it was Liu Yi who led his troops to break through and turn the situation around," the old man said
"But things don't seem to be so simple" Wei Zhuang heard this, knowing that the old man in front of him knew only so much, and after saying this, he wanted to turn around and leave
Seeing Wei Zhuang leaving, the old man frowned, seemed to remember something, and said to Wei Zhuang, "Three years ago, the Scorpion Gate caught a person from Baiyue, but then the Scorpion Gate was destroyed, and that person also lost his whereabouts, however, I seem to have heard that the Scorpion Gate and the people of the General's Mansion had contacts three years ago."
Hear the words. The corners of Wei Zhuang's mouth curled and said, "You finally provided a clue of some value, for the sake of this sentence, I will give you a piece of advice, when two behemoths fight, the first to die is likely to be sandwiched between some seemingly neutral forces, at this time, choosing the right side is the only way to survive, choosing the wrong or not choosing, there is only a dead end"
Hearing this, the old man frowned and said, "What do you want me to do?"
"Oh, why don't you choose the more powerful Bloody Cloth?" Wei Zhuang turned around and looked at the old man with interest.
"There are some things that I have to do, but there are some things that I can choose not to do, besides, will the quicksand be inferior to the Bloody Cloth Marquis?" the old man glanced at Wei Zhuang and said absently
"It seems that you are indeed a smart person" Wei Zhuang heard this, turned to leave, and said as he walked, "Find out all the news about the four murderers and let me know"
"Good" Hearing this, the old man did not shirk, but agreed to come down, even though he knew how dangerous it would be to investigate the four murderers of the night.
