Chapter 350: Clues to the Hidden Sword Cottage
Although Li Ming's story about the bloody case of the Tibetan Sword Cottage did not fall under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Legion, the Imperial General was particularly curious.
"Here's the situation...... Li Ming told in detail how he found the abandoned cottage, as well as the thousands of corpses piled up in the cottage, as well as the discovery of resentful demon spirits.
"There is such a thing!" The Imperial General frowned in surprise.
"I was asked by the resentful demon soul to help her track down the real culprit of this tragedy back then, so I will trouble the general." Li Ming said.
"This matter is not so simple, the Tibetan Sword Cottage is a craftsman belonging to the Imperial Legion no matter what, and more than a thousand people in their entire cottage were slaughtered, but this matter has not been known, could it be that someone deliberately blocked the news, even General Ben heard about it for the first time today." The Imperial General frowned and said.
"What does the general mean is that someone deliberately created this bloody case, and also deliberately covered up the truth of the case?" Li Ming asked in surprise.
"This matter, General Ben is just guessing, if someone is really secretly planning this matter, then you just go to the City Lord's Mansion, and it is estimated that you will not be able to find any clues." The Imperial General said.
"Ah......" Li Ming was stunned for a moment.
"In this way, you go to the City Lord's Mansion to inquire first, in case there are no clues, take this token and go to the Chengnan General's Mansion, the Tibetan Sword Cottage was under the management of the Chengnan General's Mansion back then, maybe there are still some records in the Imperial Legion." With a wave of his hand, the Imperial General flew in front of Li Ming......
In Li Ming's package, an extra golden general token immediately appeared.
Imperial General Order: System items, mission consumption items.
……
"Thank you, General." Li Ming nodded excitedly.
"Go ahead and get this case all investigated." The Imperial General nodded and smiled.
Swish!
The plot dialogue interface disappeared, Li Ming returned to the ordinary scene, and Fan Hua had been waiting for a long time.
"How about Brother Ming, are there any clues?" Fan Hua asked.
"I took a new task, and by the way, I asked some ...... from Yunyan Cottage," Li Ming told him about the situation just now.
"Good news, this means that you have received a serial quest with an exclusive plot, and this letter clue actually has such a follow-up plot......" Fan Hua said in surprise.
"Let's go, let's go to the hall of the City Lord's Mansion." Li Ming followed the proposal of General Zhenguo, and took Fan Hua to continue walking towards the outer city.
The City Lord's Mansion is located in a large square in the outer city, which is a centralized area for players to open various management systems when they are active in the outer city.
The two of them first came to the center of the outer city through the teleportation array, and then crossed a street into the central square, standing in front of the gate of the magnificent City Lord's Mansion complex.
In the entire outer city, the largest building complex is the city lord's mansion.
It is a complex of buildings with three or four courtyards, countless buildings and facades, high steps and solemn gates at the gate, which is extraordinary at first glance.
The two walked up the steps and entered the gate, where an open courtyard appeared before them.
Two rows of buildings line up at opposite ends of the courtyard, with two rows of NPCs in front of them, and the lord on a raised platform in front of the backyard gate far across the courtyard.
Quickly passing through the courtyard, he came to the high platform where the lord of the city was, and in front of him appeared an elegant middle-aged man with a thin body, wearing a gorgeous brocade robe and a golden crown, with a colorful name on his head...... Destiny Imperial City: City Lord!
Li Ming hurriedly opened the dialogue plot......
Swish!
"Brave warrior, what are you looking for me?" The city lord asked.
"Honorable City Lord, I have come this time to inquire about all the information about the Tibetan Sword Cottage." Li Ming asked directly.
"The situation of the Tibetan Sword Cottage, this cottage has not been heard of for a long time, and the city lord has only been in charge for a year, and he doesn't know much about this cottage." The city lord shook his head and said.
"In the city lord's mansion, are there any records about this cottage?" Li Ming asked.
"Don't worry, I'll check it out for you." The lord nodded, and with a flash of light in his hand, a thick book appeared, and he searched for the book, as if he was checking the situation recorded on it.
Li Ming could only stand there, quietly waiting for the new news to appear......
"I found it, the first generation of the owner of the Tibetan Sword Cottage is a general of our Heavenly Mandate Empire, because of his military exploits, he was rewarded with a territory, and since then he has built the Yunyan Cottage, and some veterans who were injured on the battlefield have been brought into the cottage to settle down, and since then the Yunyan Cottage has begun to create weapons and armor for the Imperial Legion, and has always been one of the Imperial Legion Forge Workshops...... But from 30 years ago to now, they have not worked for the empire anymore......" The lord seems to have found some clues.
"Since 30 years ago, has the City Lord's Mansion had any specific information about the Tibetan Sword Cottage, such as cases and the like?" Li Ming hurriedly asked.
"No, the situation in the dossier about the Tibetan Sword Cottage has been blank since 30 years ago. I don't know why you are so curious about the Tibetan Sword Cottage, is something happening? The city lord asked suspiciously.
Sure enough, there is no information!
Li Ming's heart tightened, it seemed that what the imperial general said was right, even the City Lord's Mansion had lost all the information about the Tibetan Sword Cottage.
"Thank you, Lord of the City, the Hidden Sword Cottage not only helps the Imperial Legion to craft weapons and armor, but it is said that there is also a divine sword hidden in the cottage, is this really the case?" Li Ming asked.
"According to the dossier, the first generation of the founder of the Tibetan Sword Cottage was a general of the empire, he once participated in the battle with the Chaos Empire, because of his outstanding military exploits rose to the general level, and because he killed the demon god of the demon clan once in the battle, and captured an extraordinarily powerful long sword, so he was rewarded by His Majesty the Emperor with a territory in recognition of his merits, this magic sword is the main reason for the name of the Tibetan Sword Cottage." The lord of the castle nodded and said.
"The Tibetan Sword Cottage really has the existence of the Divine Sword, and it was seized from the Demon Clan...... What's going on with this Excalibur? Li Ming was overjoyed, although he couldn't find out the case information back then, he still found out some information about Shenjian......
"This sword is called the Xuan Demon Sword, but the specific situation is not stated in the file." The lord replied.
"That's all you have here?" Li Ming asked speechlessly.
"Yes, it's just such a short piece of information about the Tibetan Sword Cottage." The city lord nodded.
"Understood, thank you, Lord Castle." Li Ming knew that there would be no news if he asked further, not to mention that looking at the age of the city lord, that is, thirty or forty years old, with his age, he would definitely not know what happened to the Hidden Sword Cottage thirty years ago......
Bid farewell to the city lord, tell Fan Hua the situation briefly, and take him with him, Li Ming continued to set off towards the military camp in the south of the city......
