Chapter 92: The Ins and Outs

"I didn't expect that there were so many things we didn't know about in the Kraken incident back then!" After listening to Shuanghua's story, the old man's face couldn't help but show a touch of shock.

For a long time, the people in the city thought that the blood moon and the blood-colored pillar of light that connected the sea and the sky were the blessings of the sea god. But after listening to Shuanghua's story, the old man suddenly came to his senses!

If the vision that appeared that night was really blessed by the sea god, how could it be so strange blood red? Moreover, when the beam of light and the blood moon disappeared, people went to check near the docks!

What catches your eye is the corpses of the defenders and mercenaries lying on the ground! There is also the ground stained red with blood and the large ~ sea area that is frozen!

During the conversation between the two, Shuanghua learned from the old man that the old man's name was Wei Buyao! According to the old man's own words, this name was changed by himself! It means that all patients can be cured without medicine!

At that time, Wei Lao also followed the people in the city to the dock of the Kraken Disaster to inspect the situation! But by the time he arrived, the area around the incident had already been blocked by Du Tao's people!

Helplessly, Wei Lao could only watch from a distance as people were constantly being carried out of the dock! Because these people were covered with a white veil, it was impossible to see the faces of the people under the veil!

What Wei Lao cared about the most was the young man in white who didn't know his name! So, when these people were carried out and passed by Wei Lao. He'll open their gabs one by one and look at them!

While inspecting the faces of these people, Wei Lao silently counted in his heart! Until the last corpse was carried out, the number that Wei Lao remembered in his heart finally stopped at one hundred and twenty-seven!

A whole hundred and twenty-seven corpses! All of them died inexplicably without any wounds on their bodies!

The flesh and skin of these people were in a state of high dehydration! It was as if the water in their bodies had been drained of water! The death was horrifying!

The skin clings to the skeleton! It looks like a mummy! If there is any difference between these corpses and mummies! It is that the internal organs of these defenders are intact in their chests and abdomen!

If it weren't for the uniform defender attire on these corpses, it would have been impossible to identify them! When it comes to claiming the remains of these heroes who died tragically at the hands of the Kraken in defense of their homeland.

People can only use the names engraved on the inner armor... Let's identify them one by one. And the bodies of those mercenaries were brought back by the people sent by the mercenary union. As for how their aftermath was arranged, no one knows!

"Mr. Wei, I came this time for another purpose. I just want to ask you, what has happened in the past year?Why have so many vicious ~ incidents happened in the city?Then when the city lord Du Tao is so reckless, isn't your Xuanfeng Empire in charge?"

After recounting what had happened on the streets in the afternoon, Shuanghua quietly waited for the old man to speak. And Peach, this little guy is extremely alert to close the door of the store tightly~.

"Well, girl, let's sit down and talk. Because what he learned from Shuanghua was too shocking, Old Man Wei forgot to ask Shuanghua to sit down and talk for a while!

If it weren't for seeing Peaches go to close the door, this Old Man Wei wouldn't necessarily remember this stubble for a while.

"Okay!" After the two of them were seated, Momoko obediently ran to the cabinet to prepare tea for the two.

"Hey, listening to what you said before, girl, you shouldn't be a citizen of Xuanfeng, right?" Wei Lao said after sighing slightly. What Shuanghua said earlier, you Xuanfeng Empire!

This undoubtedly exposed her identity as not a resident of her country. However, this kind of thing is very common in the sea city of Huaizhou Port. After all, people from the Land of Wind and Snow and the Dragon Kingdom often come here to trade.

Therefore, for Shuanghua's identity, Old Man Wei did not seem very surprised.

Frost Hua nodded, "Hehe, yes! I'm from the Land of Wind and Snow." This time I came mainly to crusade~ to destroy that kraken, I didn't expect to find such a series of things..."

"Then it's no wonder you don't know what we're doing here!" the old man slowly began to tell about what had happened in the past year. And the ins and outs of why the father and son of the Nadu family did such a brutal act!

For many years, the position of the lord of the port of Huaizhou has been vacant, because it has not been effectively developed and no wharf has been built at that time. There was no trade with other countries like this today!

Since there was no oil or water to be fished, no one was willing to come to the port of Huaizhou to take up his post! In the end, there was really no way, so the empire posted a notice on the local side, as long as it could hand over a huge tax of 30 million yuan.

You can get the lordship recognized by the Empire! 30,000,000 gold coins! This is not a small amount, even if all the money and wealth of all the people in the city at that time are gathered together, it will not be able to make up 23/10!

About three months have passed! Finally, a wealthy merchant who has traveled here saw this notice! After a careful exploration of the surrounding terrain!

This wealthy merchant actually took out a huge amount of money of 30 million yuan on the imperial side and bought the position of city lord!

"This rich businessman, surnamed Du?" Hearing the old man say this, Shuanghua said thoughtfully.

Regarding Shuanghua's question, the old man nodded slightly, "Yes! This rich merchant is indeed surnamed Du! It can be said that in the hands of this rich merchant." Huaizhou Port, where we have lived for hundreds of years, has undergone earth-shaking changes in just one year!"

In just one year, the city lord at that time built the wharf! At that time, the Du family was still very good to the people in the city! The people always respected him very much.

But such days did not last long, due to the construction of the pier. It accelerated the trade between here and the outside world! For a time, the city's economy made a qualitative leap!

Of course, after making more money. Naturally, there is no shortage of people with red eyes! And this person with red eyes is none other than the top of the empire! Therefore, the empire deceived the rich merchant in the name of inviting him to the palace to attend a banquet!

In fact, the banquet is fake! Monopolizing this huge cake is the real thing! From the moment the rich merchant arrives in Dragon City, a conspiracy against him also strikes!
