Zhao Hong suspicious trace 2
The two of them quickly entered the alley after buying food, Wen Qi and the two quietly followed, Huang Zhong in front, Wen Qi in the back, after two corners, Wen Qi disappeared the two people who bought food, and even Huang Zhong couldn't find it.
A crisp birdsong attracted Wenqi's attention, and as soon as he looked up, Huang Zhong was already on the roof, pointing in the direction, and Wenqi hurriedly followed.
After turning around, I finally arrived at a large courtyard in the west of the city, where some tables, chairs, cabinets, and some logs were piled up, which seemed to be a workshop for making furniture.
"The furniture has been here for a long time, the wood has no signs of use, and the tools look rusted and in a mess, which is absolutely impossible for a normal craftsman."
Wen Qi and Huang Zhong squatted on a big tree, staring at the courtyard, and Huang Zhong told Wen Qi his suspicions.
The two people who came back from the inn knocked on the door of the room, and someone came out of the door and received a bowl of porridge and a steamed bun, but they did not eat it, and after about a stick of incense, six more people came out of the room, and each of them received porridge and steamed buns, and waited aside, until one of them, received two meals, and walked into the house, and the others began to eat.
"The first two people to come out of the house should be in charge of guarding, and the six people in the back took a stick of incense to come out, I'm afraid there are still things inside."
Ten meals, one person received two, one of them was placed outside, one was held in his hand and walked back to the house, eight people outside sat together with one and began to eat, Huang Zhong took out a fine iron bow, found a good position, and put eight arrows in a row, and all eight people fell to the ground at once.
After disposing of these eight people, Huang Zhong led Wen Qi to push open the door of the house, only to see that there was nothing but some sundries.
"Lord, there may be an ambush inside, why don't you let me test it first." Huang Zhong reminded.
"No need, my jade pendant can summon strange soldiers, and Han Sheng is unstoppable, and he is not afraid of ambushes."
The two of them entered the house, and if they hadn't seen someone come in before, at a glance, it really looked like an abandoned warehouse.
There were some sandbags on both sides of the door, which were obviously prepared by Sun Jian when he flooded the city to prevent water from flooding in, and the height of the stacks was higher than his knees.
Combined with what the county order told him before, Wen Qi began to have some doubts about the victory of the flooded Licheng that day, could it be that the Yellow Turban Army evacuated Licheng in advance in order to prevent Sun Jianjun from continuing to release water, and Huang Gai and Han Dang, who were in charge of the siege that day, were a big boss, and they began to pursue the Yellow Turban Army without carefully searching the city.
"Hansheng, look carefully, there must be something wrong with this house."
The two searched for a while, and found some luggage under a dusty chair, which contained nine sets of Yellow Turban Army costumes, and a more formal and gorgeous look, most likely the clothes that Zhao Hong had changed into after dressing up.
Wen Qi was almost sure that Zhao Hong was here, but he couldn't find out where the mystery of this room was.
"Hansheng, those six people came out together just now, and one of them took two meals, one was returned outside, and one was brought in, right?"
"Lord, do you mean this man will come out again?"
"This person probably went inside to deliver food to Zhao Hong, and just shot eight people outside, and the commotion was not big, this person doesn't necessarily know what happened outside, and may come out to eat."
The two closed the door and found a hidden corner to ambush them, and sure enough, it didn't take long for a stone slab on the ground to slowly move away, revealing a passageway, and the man who had just served the food was holding an empty bowl and walking up the bluestone steps from the ground.
After confirming that there was only one person who came out, Huang Zhong shot an arrow from the shadows, and before the other party closed the slate, he directly hit him.
"There is a secret passage below, no wonder it can't be flooded, this Zhao Hong must be below." Wen Qi said as he pulled out the Evil Sword.
Huang Zhong put away the fine iron bow, because the red blood knife is a long weapon, it is not suitable for this mission, this time he only brought an ordinary steel knife.
Stepping on the bluestone steps, there is a deep and long passage at the bottom, surrounded by bluestone slabs, and the air carries an ancient and decaying smell, it seems that this place has existed for many years, but these stone slabs and the houses above are newly built in recent years.
At the end of the passage, a short and fat man was facing away from Wen Qi and Huang Zhong, and there was a jet-black metal door in front of him.
"Didn't you tell me not to bother me?" The short and fat man said, not even looking back, thinking that the person who came was his subordinate.
"System, check if this person is Zhao Hong, don't make an oolong."
"Zhao Hong, level 9 blue general, 65 in force, 68 in dominance, 63 in intelligence, 60 in politics, 57 in charisma, and 94 γγγγγγ in might"
Wen Qi didn't listen to what the system said later, as long as this person was Zhao Hong.
The silence behind him made Zhao Hong realize that something was wrong, and when he turned around, Huang Zhong's bow and arrow were already coming towards his throat, but when he arrived in front of him, because of the protection of the spell, the arrow turned into pieces.
Wen Qi held the Evil Breaking Sword and stabbed it towards Zhao Hong's heart, only to feel that something invisible blocked his sword, and with a little force, the Evil Breaking Sword broke through the obstacle, but because of this block, it failed to stab Zhao Hong's heart, only stabbed him in the shoulder.
The golden light of the Evil Breaking Sword flashed, but he heard the system remind: "The spell effect on Zhao Hong's body has been eliminated, and the power of faith in Taiping Dao has disappeared." β
Zhao Hong covered his injured shoulder with one hand, leaned back, and said, "Two heroes spare their lives, spare their lives." β
"Are you Zhao Hong?"
"Hmm." Zhao Hong nodded.
"What are you doing here?"
Zhao Hong was about to answer, but suddenly his face changed greatly, and his body actually began to catch fire.
"Ah, the great sage and good teacher spare his life, spare his life!"
Zhao Hong wailed, rolling on the ground, trying to extinguish the fire on his body, but this flame was very weird, no matter how Zhao Hong struggled, it was still burning, and Wen Qi and Huang Zhong were so close, but they didn't feel the temperature at all.
Seeing this, Wen Qi hurriedly asked the system: "System, didn't it say that the spell effects on his body were eliminated, how could this still happen?" β
"It can't be explained, the problem seems to be on Zhao Hong's soul."
Not long after, Zhao Hong was seriously injured, unable to struggle, fell to the ground and waited for death, Wen Qi squatted down and asked, "What are you doing here?" β
Zhao Hong glanced at Wen Qi and said in a weak voice: "Prophet, Zhang Mancheng said that there is a prophet's relics hereγγγγγγ β
Zhao Hong swallowed his breath before he finished speaking, but Wen Qi clearly heard him mention the prophet, when he was in the cave east of Huyang, he had seen the prophet's bone, the soul was crazy, and said that it was his bones, it was likely that he was the soul of the prophet, so is it the same as the prophet Zhao Hong said, or what is the connection, it seems that the flame that burned Zhao Hong just now is also a little similar to the flame that burned the soul of the prophet before?
"Lord, look at this door, there are traces of forcibly opening it with external force, and it looks like it has failed."
When Wen Qi was thinking, Huang Zhong checked the black metal gate in front of Zhao Hong, and many broken axes had fallen on the stone slab in front of the door, these axes were all weapons of the Yellow Turban Lux, and they left a shallow mark on the door, obviously unsuccessful.
Wenqi carefully studied the metal gate, which seemed to be a long time old, and the ancient and decaying smell he had smelled before came from the cracks in the metal gate.
"System, what material is this gate made of?"
"Good black steel."
Wen Qi thought in his heart that if there was a way in the future, he would definitely take this gate to refine weapons and armor, but his hand didn't know where he touched it, it felt like he had pressed a button, and on this black metal gate, a row of words with a faint golden light began to emerge.
Wen Qi looked at it for a moment, and said to the system in his mind: "System, do you know the words on it?" β
"I've never seen it, and I don't know it.".
"How could you not recognize!"
It's a binary number!
