Chapter 170: Mysterious Footprints

"Lu Yu, do you think that the City Lord of Jade City, as well as the generals stationed here, their reaction is a little strange?"

Beside the jade spring, which flows like an emerald, Mulan and Lu Yu walked side by side.

"Looks like something is not natural when they mention the Demon Seed."

Lu Yu naturally saw that something was wrong, especially the city lord of Jade City, when he mentioned the demon seed, he obviously hesitated.

This naturally shows that he has something to hide.

"Mo Fei, what is the relationship between the city lord of Jade City and the demon seed? No, it can't be. ”

I just had some ideas in my heart, but I was quickly snuffed out by Mulan.

The city lord of Jade City has always been supportive of the Great Wall, and he is a person who yearns for peace in the desert.

Moreover, the prosperity of the desert is also inseparable from his policy of opening up the jade city.

If there was anything to do with the demon seed, then the people and civilization of Jade City would probably have already been destroyed.

However, the answer and hesitation of the city lord of Jade City made people feel puzzled.

"Perhaps, there is some reason behind this."

After thinking about it for a while, Lu Yu still couldn't think of any clue, so he had to say so.

"Well, I hope that's the reason, not bad news."

Hua Mulan shook her head a little helplessly, originally they went to Jade City to investigate the infestation of demon seeds, but now they were "persuaded by the City Lord of Jade City" and turned into a day trip to Jade City.

"But, Mulan."

Lu Yu looked at the trickling jade spring, and couldn't help but feel a little relieved in his heart, and said with a soothing eyebrow, "The scenery of this jade city is indeed good. Why don't you just have a good time here? ”

It was still on the Qixi Festival since the last date, but the two had not revealed their hearts to each other at that time.

Now, in the jade city, whether it is the jade spring in front of you, or the huge jade that shines on the square, it is a beautiful scenery that makes people feel comfortable.

The dancing fluorescent, as if it were a lively elf, soared in the air, mobilizing a fantastical atmosphere and making people feel like they were in a fairyland.

"Enjoy the time we don't have to enjoy. If I don't get to the bottom of this, I won't do anything else. ”

Tilting her head stubbornly to the side, Mulan said sternly.

"Well, we'll investigate later?"

“”

Thanks to the thriving jade trade, the inhabitants of Jade City are hospitable, they love brilliant colors and have carved the city's totems outside the walls of their homes. In order to resist the long sun exposure, people build blackout curtains and enjoy the beauty in the shade.

The Jade Square, a place of vigorous vitality, is a symbol of infinite beauty with huge stone pillars guarding the jade that shines with emerald green light in the center.

Of course, Jade City naturally not only has the scenery of Jade Square, but also has such strange and beautiful sites as jade cliffs and underground jade mines.

The jade cliff overlooks the magnificent scenery of the entire jade city from here, and the magnificent jade spring flows down from the top of this mountain. Moreover, when you observe the jade spring up close, you will be wet by the splashed water droplets from time to time, but the water droplets from the jade spring are exceptionally delicate and smooth, as if not stained with a trace of dirt, and even exude a peculiar fragrance, which makes people feel refreshed.

According to the legends told by the local people, the jade spring contains mysterious powers, and it once gave birth to life. Moreover, the essence from the spring water moistens the soil, allowing the jade to fully absorb nutrients and become more pure and crystalline.

"The spring water of this jade spring is really magical, even if you just smell this fragrance, there is a feeling of enlightenment."

Smelling the fragrance of the jade spring, Mulan couldn't help but sigh.

"How about a little more?"

I only heard Lu Yu shouting on the side, and immediately, the cool but not cold spring water came towards him with a "bang".

"Lu Yu!"

The placket of his clothes was drenched with the spring water, but the "initiator" was smiling evilly, holding the spring water in his hand, intending to attack again.

"You wait!"

Hua Mulan was naturally unwilling to fall into the disadvantage, and she also took the spring water from the jade spring and rushed towards Lu Yu.

The crystal jade-like splash splashes in all directions, fresh and moving, like the dew on the small lotus in the early morning, which is lovable and pitiful.

And with such a beautiful scenery, while feeling the vigorous vitality, it is the cheerful pursuit of the two

Before noon, under the leadership of the locals and Yu Linfeng, Lu Yu and Hua Mulan visited the underground jade mine again.

The management of the underground jade mine is very strict, and there are a large number of soldiers guarding it outside, and the jade Linfeng even boasts that not even a single mosquito can fly in.

Unlike the landscapes above the ground, there are many caves in the underground jade mines, some of which have been mined, while others are in a mysterious state of dust.

Here, jade crystals grow luxuriantly, and the moment they grow into jade is a sign that the time has come to maturity.

"It's beautiful here."

In the closed and quiet cave, it is full of bright green light, as if hanging countless crystals, which is indeed a unique beauty.

"These footprints"

Lu Yu was also attracted by this beautiful scenery at first, but when he leaned down, he saw many traces of similar footprints on the ground.

However, although they are footprints, they appear to be very small, even smaller than a child's foot.

"General Lu Yu, is there anything wrong?"

Seeing that Lu Yu was attracted by the footprints on the ground, Yu Linfeng on the side hurriedly came over and licked his lips, looking a little nervous.

"Are there any other creatures in this underground mine?"

This is Lu Yu's speculation, because this trace is impossible for humans to leave behind.

"How is that possible for other creatures? In this mine, it's all our own people. ”

The people beside Yu Linfeng also nodded frequently, but Lu Yu didn't eat it.

"Mulan, you can also take a look at these footprints."

Mulan also heard the news, and carefully observed the footprints on the ground, and Mulan also hesitated, and said suspiciously, "These footprints, don't tell you that you are walking with your hands." ”

Moreover, these footprints are not as big as a palm.

"Ahem, didn't I always tell you to get rid of those footprints?"

Yu Linfeng looked dissatisfied, arched the entourage beside him, and whispered in his ear.

"What are you talking about?"

Hua Mulan looked at Yu Linfeng as if she was not convinced, and stepped forward to ask.

"Nothing, nothing, I mean, it's not impossible that these footprints were left by some small animal."

Yu Linfeng explained with a wry smile.

"But, city lord, didn't you say that even mosquitoes can't get in here?"

Lu Yu asked curiously.
