Chapter 261: Harvesting Clues

The sound of harmony came from far and near, and a large number of palace guards poured here, and the footsteps had already shook the ground slightly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The general also realized that the situation was not good, but it was impossible to leave quickly at this moment, and he found that at least a thousand Praetorian guards were rushing in.

He had no choice but to stand up with the pain, but there were still beads of sweat the size of beans on his forehead, and his fierce and iron-blooded face was distorted.

Finally, the guards arrived at the scene of the incident, only to find that the general was alone on the spot, and there was no trace of a fight around.

The leading guard was slightly startled, then bowed and asked, "In the middle of the night, how could the general be in the palace?

The general tried to calm down his emotions, and the ninja said in severe pain: "The general just found a thief in the capital, so he followed him to the palace, so he wanted to capture him, but the thief had some strange methods, and actually injured the general's hand, and then fled. ā€

The leading guard was shocked: "There are thieves who break into the palace at night, it is really bold, and the thieves have fled in that direction?" ā€

The general shook his head, although he knew that the palace guards were likely to catch up with the thief, but he was worried that the thief would leak the secret of his private meeting with the queen, so he shook his head and said: "No need, that thief's body is extremely fast, I'm afraid he has already fled away, and the palace guards will strengthen their precautions in the future." ā€

The leading guard nodded: "Obey, the general has worked hard, can I send you out of the palace with my humble duties?"

"No need!" the general turned and walked outside the palace, "This general has a special order from the king, he can enter and leave the palace at will, and he will go out." ā€

The leading guards watched the general's back video, and then turned to the guards behind him and said: "Everyone should be on duty, and we must take more precautions, if there are any more thieves breaking in, none of us will want to live!"

"Yes!" the guards dispersed in an instant, silent, like ghosts in the middle of the night.

Back in the Holy Envoy's Mansion, Xiao Zhang felt as if he had fallen apart, after all, after an extremely tense fierce battle, even if he had unlimited strength, it had taken a lot of energy.

It seems that if you want to destroy the dwarf race, it is not an overnight thing, and you need to take it slowly. He doesn't have absolute strength, so he can only rely on his mind to lay out.

Sitting on the chair, already soaked with sweat, Xiao Zhang lowered his head and thought about all the details just now.

A dwarf beauty held the freshly brewed tea in front of Xiao Zhang, and said respectfully: "Lord Holy Envoy has worked hard, do you want the slave to prepare bath water for you?"

"No need!" Xiao Zhang irritated and drove the dwarf beauty away, and then picked up the teacup and drank a cup of tea.

The fragrant tea eased the tiredness in his heart a little, and then he continued to think.

What is the purpose of the black scorpion's secret message to guide him to the palace?

Only the dwarf king's crutch and the queen's book were a little suspicious, but what does that mean? Everyone has their own habits, and it seems a bit far-fetched to say that this is suspicious.

Puzzled, Xiao Zhang simply gave up this question and began to think about the next question.

I had a fierce battle with the general just now, I don't know if the general has seen his identity, if he sees it, then something is wrong, the general will definitely not give up, and this holy envoy will definitely become the target of the general's attack at all costs.

According to the habits of ordinary people, if someone else learns the top secret**, they will definitely eradicate that person as quickly as possible, and once they know the identity and address of that person, they will definitely do their best to eradicate the trouble.

If this is the case, then the general's next attack should not pass tonight.

Thinking of this, Xiao Zhang suddenly shook his head, because he had basically concluded that the general did not recognize his identity, because it had been nearly half an hour since that fierce battle at this moment, if his identity had been recognized, then the killer sent by the general should have arrived.

Thinking of this, Xiao Zhang's relaxed slightly, since this is the case, then tonight's adventure is not without gains, at least he has grabbed a big handle of the general, and he may be able to use it in the future.

After pouring another cup of tea, Xiao Zhang began to taste it slowly, and his thoughts returned to the dwarf king's crutch and the queen's book.

These two things seemed ordinary and slightly suspicious, but they touched a certain thought of Xiao Zhang at a certain moment.

crutches, books, crutches, books......

Suddenly, a spiritual light suddenly lit up in Xiao Zhang's mind, could these two things be the artifacts and holy laws of the Kua Father Clan?

The artifact of the Kuafu clan is the Kuafu Scepter, and the Holy Law is most likely a book, if this is the case, then the purpose of secretly guiding him to the members of the Black Scorpion Society is obvious, this is to help him get clues!

However, those two things may also be the artifacts and holy laws of the dwarf clan, after all, it is very likely that the artifact has hidden its original appearance in its normal state and has become a very ordinary thing.

In any case, tonight's adventure can be regarded as a great reward, and Xiao Zhang will no longer have to look for clues like a headless fly.

In the Queen's Palace.

The Admiral did not leave the palace, but returned to the Queen's bedchamber, for the events of the night were very strange, and he had to go back to report to the Queen, and at the same time to hear her opinion.

"Did the thief catch it?" asked the queen, still holding the thick book in her hand, her eyes slightly closed.

The general's face was still a little distorted, obviously the sharp pain in his wrist was still continuing, he shook his head in annoyance, and said, "That thief is very cunning, not only escaped the pursuit of the last general, but ruined one of the last general's hands. ā€

The queen was slightly startled, slowly opened her eyes, and sure enough, she saw that the general's right hand was gone, leaving only a bare wrist, and the broken mouth was as smooth as a mirror, which looked a little shocking.

"Where did the thief come from? Do you see clearly?" asked the queen, closing her eyes again, with a little displeasure.

The general thought carefully for a while, and then said: "The last general feels that this person's figure is not from my clan, and this person seems to be a little familiar, as if he has seen it somewhere. ā€

The queen nodded: "So, who do you think it will be?"

The general pondered for a long time and said, "The last general dared to guess, could that thief be the Holy Envoy of the Yan Kingdom who had just come to our clan?" According to my observation, his figure is the same as that of the Holy Envoy of the Yan Kingdom. ā€

"Oh?" the queen opened her eyes again, and instead of displeasure, she was slightly surprised, "If it's really him, it means that my previous plan has worked." ā€

The general obviously did not understand what the queen meant, and said puzzledly: "If it is him, then I will immediately send someone to get rid of him, he has learned the secret of the last general and the queen, and he will definitely not let him survive tonight!"
