Chapter XXVIII
"Hmph!" replied to Dream Without a Trace with a cold snort.
"As long as you tell the main messenger behind the scenes, I can spare your life," Meng Wuxian looked at Li Shisan and said again.
"Do you think I will betray the leader?" This is the rhythm of the sea of self-detonating gas. At this moment, "Keng!" a flash of silver light flashed. I saw the Qingfeng Sword in Dream Wuxi's hand slowly entering the sheath.
"Hmph, do you think I'm going to jump off the wall without preventing your dog?" Meng Wuxian looked at Li Shisan, who was holding his neck with both hands, and blood was constantly gushing out from his fingers, and snorted coldly. It's not a pity that such a person dies, but it's a pity that I wanted to find some breakthroughs from this Li Shisan, but now my idea has fallen through again.
Li 13 looked at Meng Wuxian and tilted his head and died. There was still a hint of disbelief in his eyes, he thought that Dream Without a Trace would interrogate him properly and let down his guard. And at that time, he himself exploded the sea of qi with lightning speed, and he couldn't resist it at all with the current cultivation of Dream Without a Trace.
Li Shisan would rather die than survive, because he knew too well the methods of his leader, and his fate in the future would be a hundred times more miserable than this. It's better to take Dream Without a Trace to the funeral together, so that it can also add a touch to the history of the organization.
"Whoosh" At this moment, two figures swept towards Dream Traceless. Dream Wuxian held the Qingfeng Sword in his left hand, and his momentum was secretly condensed. After seeing the person clearly, Dream Wuxian let down his guard. The two who came were two of the spies.
"See the young city lord" The two spies who came to the rescue looked at the dead Li Shisan, and after seeing that the dead person was the leader of those masked people, their eyes flashed with surprise. He secretly said in his heart: "This masked leader is a real early stage Qi Sea Realm master, I didn't expect the young city lord to be able to kill the early stage master of the Qi Sea Realm with the cultivation of the ninefold peak of Qi cultivation." And look at the young city lord, he was slightly injured. ”
"How is it, is your business done over there?" said Dream Traceless.
"Young City Lord, all two hundred and fifty-seven village names have been rescued, and those masked people have all been ambushed. One of the agents replied.
"What? you didn't leave a living mouth?" Meng Wuxian said with some doubts, the secret agents are all veterans of doing things, and this common sense should be known by reason.
"That's not the case, the subordinates have already left five alive, but I didn't expect those masked people to be well-trained killers. Before we could speak, we had already bitten all the poison hidden in our teeth and died of poisoning. The agent explained.
After hearing this, Meng Wuxian secretly pondered, came to Li Shisan's side, took off Li Shisan's mask, and revealed the face of a middle-aged man. This person Dream Traceless didn't know him, and then Dream Traceless found that there was a small black skull mark on this Li Thirteen's mask. The forces in my mind that I know do not match the corresponding forces. Shaking his head, Meng Wuxian thought that he should go back and ask his grandfather first.
Broke open Li Shisan's mouth and took out a black particle from it, presumably this is poison. Unexpectedly, even the leader of the Qi Sea Realm was equipped with such a deadly poison in his mouth, it seems that this organization is not simple.
Dream Without a Trace didn't expect that all the people in this organization would be so decisive, and they wanted to get some clues from it, and use this as a breakthrough, but it seems that it will not work.
Then Dream Traceless came to the place where the masked people had gathered just now, and saw corpses all over the ground, and a few black-clothed spies there to appease some overwhelmed village names. After those secret agents saw that there was no trace of the dream, they said respectfully: "See the young city lord!"
Meng Wuxian waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to be polite. Then he looked at the corpses of the masked people on the ground, and several of them had dark faces, and their faces all had the kind of corrosion marks of sulfuric acid. Dream Without a Trace couldn't tell what kind of poison it was, it was so powerful.
Looking at the people next to him, he saw that their masks did not have the marks of those skeletons, and presumably only some leaders were qualified to wear masks with skull marks.
At this time, an old man with white hair trembled and came to Meng Wuxian and said, "The old man is here to thank the young city lord for saving us all" and said that he was about to salute.
Seeing this, Meng Wuxian hurriedly supported the old man and said: "Old man doesn't have to be polite, these are all things that are within my responsibility, such a thing happened in the jurisdiction of the deserted city, and I have an unshirkable responsibility as the young city lord of the deserted city, so I would like to say sorry to everyone." ”
"The young city lord is serious, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid that we wouldn't know where to wait for death at this time."
"Yes, yes," the name of the village next to him echoed.
Looking at the names of these homeless villages, Dream Traceless became even more resentful of the organization of those masked people, and secretly swore in his heart: "We must let the culprit be punished." ”
"You are responsible for escorting those villagers back to the deserted city safely, remember to settle them well, and I will go back to the city first. Dream Without a Trace commanded the spies.
"Yes!"
As he spoke, he nodded at the names of the villages, and quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.
......
The Deserted City Lord's Mansion Annex!
At this time, an old man and a young man were sitting opposite each other in the gazebo. It was Zhao Tiandu and Dream Without a Trace.
"How's the investigation going, what I asked you to investigate?" Zhao Tiandu asked.
"Grandpa, when I was tracking down yesterday, I found a burned village, and I chased all the way to find a group of masked people. But in the end, none of the masked men were left alive. "Dream without a trace.
Then Meng Wuxian told Zhao Tiandu what happened last night, of course, he skipped the scene of the duel with Li Shisan, but just said a word, because Meng Wuxian didn't want Zhao Tiandu to worry. took out Li Shisan's black iron mask and put it on the table for Zhao Tiandu to see.
After hearing this, Zhao Tiandu took the mask with the skull mark, touched his beard and muttered to himself: "Skull mark, skull mark, how do you feel a little familiar." By the way, I remember, the Night Organization. Zhao Tiandu stood up from his seat in surprise and said.
"Grandpa, are you talking about the bloody Dark Night Organization that started a bloody Dark Night Organization in the Southern Wilderness ten years ago?" Although Dream Traceless had not participated in the great battle of encircling and suppressing the Dark Night ten years ago, this did not prevent him from hearing about the name of the Dark Night Organization. The leader of the organization, Shadow, was the ruthless man who assassinated the city lord of Yunshui City.
"You can't be wrong, this skull mark is the mark of the Night Organization. I didn't expect them to dare to appear in the Southern Wilderness, this dark night organization doesn't know what the specific use is for arresting so many people, but it will definitely not be a good thing. Since they dare to reappear, they must have come prepared.
No, I have to discuss this matter with Qin Haotian and make some preparations as soon as possible. You have been in charge of dispatching the guards in the city recently, and you have strengthened the patrol in the city in the past few days. Zhao Tiandu commanded Meng Wuxian and then left in a hurry.
Meng Wuxian looked at Zhao Tiandu's anxious appearance and was secretly surprised, it was the first time he had seen Zhao Tiandu's appearance, it seemed that the water in this dark night was deeper than he knew on the surface. Then Dream Without a Trace went down to arrange the patrol in the city.
...
The City Lord's Mansion of Ylang City!
"City Lord, yesterday when we were tracking down the disappeared civilians, we found a group of masked people arresting people everywhere, our people are against them, and their leader's cultivation is only able to practice Qi Nine Major Perfections, so it didn't take long for the people in the dark to wipe out each other. A man in a black and gray robe reported. This person is Feng Gaoyang, the captain of the first team of the dark department, who cultivated in the early stage of the Qi Sea Realm.
"Oh, did you ask any clues?" Qin Haotian above asked.
"No, the other side is very well trained. When I left a few live mouths to interrogate, what I didn't expect was that they all had poison in their mouths and died of poisoning, and it was too late for me to stop them. Feng Gaoyang replied.
