"Here's how it went." General Liu said, looking lost in memory.

"That day I rushed to the den of the bandits mentioned in the intelligence, but the place didn't look like there were bandits, and I just thought that the information was wrong, so I sent my men out to find clues." When General Liu said this, he sighed, it was he who was careless and killed many brothers.

"But......" General Ryu clenched his fist, "I...... Ambushed. "General Liu, a great general who has been fighting on the battlefield for so many years, was actually ambushed and calculated by a group of small bandits, when he said this, General Liu naturally had some face, but fortunately, Duan Bailan didn't have any expression, just listened quietly.

General Liu picked up the tea and took another sip, and after putting the teacup back on the table, General Liu coughed lightly twice, and said embarrassedly, "I was ambushed for a while, and then my people were almost dead, and then the group of bandits rushed out, and we fought, but in the end I and a few brothers were still captured." When he said this, General Liu's face rarely appeared with a look similar to shame.

However, Duan Bailan didn't have time to listen to this, what he wanted to hear was the later part, and he was not interested in the previous ones, but Duan Bailan didn't say anything, but listened quietly, anyway, it was almost there.

"After being taken away by the bandits, we were taken to a small village with beautiful mountains and rivers, and then we were tied up, and then the group gave us something to eat, which must have been drugged, and it didn't take long for me to feel delirious, and then I fainted." General Liu said.

Duan Bailan raised her head slightly, very good, you will know the truth immediately.

"I woke up once, and at that time, I was locked in a dimly lit room, dark all around, and I couldn't see anything."

"But I could feel that there was a person across from me. I don't know what he's doing, he didn't speak, and I didn't dare to say it. ”

"Eventually, he spoke, and I remember his voice, the bandit leader. He said to me, General Liu, I want to make a deal with you. ”

"I asked him what the deal was."

"Then he told me that he could let me complete this mission, and he said that he knew what I was here for, and I thought he might have his own information, and he said that he could stop being a bandit, and that his purpose of being a bandit had been achieved, and that he just wanted one thing, and that he could put me back safely."

"I asked him what it was, and at that time, I didn't really want to trade, I just wanted to see if I could let myself out first."

"He seemed to look at me, and that gaze ...... It made me feel like I was stabbing in the back, and then he spoke, and he said that what he wanted was nothing more than an elixir in my general's mansion, which I had obtained by accident, and I didn't even know what it was now. ”

Then he spoke again and said, don't worry, I won't let you do things for nothing

But if you don't do what I say, I can guarantee that everyone in the uniform won't survive the day after tomorrow. ”

"I wanted to reason with him at that time, but, for some reason, I suddenly fell asleep again, and then the whole person lost consciousness again."

"By the time I regained consciousness, I was already lying in my room. When I woke up, I was shocked, the guards of the General's Mansion were all trained by me, and even if I was not there, they would guard them strictly, and then I went to ask about it, and no one saw the stranger come in, and even they didn't know how I came back. ”

"That's when I realized that the negotiation in the dark room that day might be true, that he really had that ability, and I went to my inventory to take a look, and the herb was gone."

"In the future, you should know, for the safety of my general's life, I choose to promise him."

After speaking, General Liu breathed a long sigh of relief, picked up the teacup on the table and drank it all, then put the empty cup on the table and looked up at Duan Bailan.

Duan Bailan didn't interject when General Liu told about this matter, but listened quietly, but as General Liu told the story, Duan Bailan frowned unconsciously.

The small village in the paradise, now it seems, is really related to bandits, about the bandit leader that General Liu said, it is likely to be a key person, he must know the secrets of the underground imperial city, and may even have the key. If you can unconsciously outrun the guards of the General's Mansion and bring General Liu into his room, it is very likely that you will take the road of the underground imperial city, otherwise, this person's martial arts will be high to a certain level.

Comparing the two, it is clear that the first possibility is more likely.

"His Royal Highness King Ding, I have told you everything you want to know." General Liu said, he looked at Duan Bailan.

"Oh," Duan Bailan came back to her senses and smiled at General Liu, "Thank you General Liu for helping me answer my doubts today, if I have the opportunity, I will definitely visit and express my gratitude." Duan Bailan said with a smile.

General Liu smiled, although what Duan Bailan said was all about the scene, but after today's events, General Liu was not afraid that Duan Bailan had always put himself on the opposite side of him.

"It's hard for General Liu today." Duan Bailan said with a smile, and then the two of them exchanged pleasantries, got into their own carriages, and went back to their respective homes.

Duan Bailan pondered all the way, but until the carriage had stopped, he didn't come up with any results, and finally had to decide which small village to go back to investigate after a while.

When Duan Bailan returned home, Liu Nianru hadn't come back yet, Duan Bailan didn't ask where Liu Nianru had gone, and went into his study, he felt that everything should be on the agenda, and there was always a bad premonition.

……

The Imperial City below.

Liu Nianru's heart is almost half cold now, she quickly flew over several places with light skills, and even farther out of the suburbs of Beijing, originally thought that it was impossible to build much in this underground imperial city

Far away, but ......

Liu Nianru now feels that this underground imperial city may really be as big as the surface, and it really has no boundary.

Liu Nianru didn't give up and took a few more steps forward, but still, like the surface, Liu Nianru finally gave up and decided to go home, and by the way, tell Duan Bailan about this discovery.

Liu Nianru returned the same way, and this exit from the Dingwang Mansion happened to be in Duan Bailan's study, so he ......
