Chapter 149: Sacrifice
Originally, with a hint of wine on her face, Yan Chixia shuttled through Haizhou City, and her purpose was originally the Governor's Mansion of Haizhou City.
However, when he approached this side, he suddenly sensed the oppression of the human dragon qi.
Yan Chixia is not an outsider like Zhao Youqian, and she has no care or fear of humanity.
He was not even afraid to directly do anything to the emperor, which was really beyond the concept of cultivators in this realm.
Although Yan Chixia had already had the opportunity to be here, and she had also seen the scenery of other worlds in the Heavenly Pavilion, but those thoughts had not been changed, and after sensing the suppression of the humane dragon qi, she was clearly intimidated.
Of course, at this time, he was also in a hurry.
He didn't dare to break into this yamen, but there was no problem with the secretary's house.
In the end, he is also a person who has been an official, or the chief catcher of the thirteen prefectures of Jiannan Province, and the secretary is also a clerk he often deals with.
He doesn't know what these guys are about?
They have long been people who have no future, but being able to become the master bookkeeper can be regarded as a chance to be motivated, mastering the collection of books in a state, and many secretaries and master books are doing private work of copying.
In the world of Xianxia, books can be regarded as a very precious treasure.
Naturally, they are the first to get the moon near the water, and when others copy it, they will ask others to give them the same copy.
Over time, the collection of books in the governor's palace will basically have a copy of these secretaries.
Although she didn't know what the names of all the officials in Haizhou City were, Yan Chixia could still be sure of the habits of these officials.
Sure enough, he looked around the mansion, and in the scene of a multi-person movement, he found the secretary's main book, and after figuring out where his home was, Yan Chixia also found out the addresses of some of his colleagues.
But obviously, Yan Chixia didn't expect that there would be so many books in the secretary's house.
Fortunately, although this master book is greedy for wine and lustful, the basic level of readers is still there, and the books are put on the shelves according to the year and various categories, and Yan Chixia has a good look at the local chronicles of Haizhou City.
Silently calculating the years, Yan Chixia took down a book of local chronicles that Laoshan Daoren began to record in the spring of the year when he was born and traveled, and then read it all the way.
It wasn't until about ten years after Mo cleared the matter of the evil magic and witchcraft in Haizhou City that the governor stepped down, and finally saw the appearance of the three words Dragon King Sacrifice.
"Huh? It's..."
"Sun Li Mihei, the four families established Haizhou City?"
At this moment, a seemingly unrelated piece of information appeared in Yan Chixia's eyes, and he subconsciously recorded this in his mind, and read it along with the book of recorded classics.
Clues appeared in his heart.
But the most critical threads still haven't appeared, but now it's enough to complete what Zhao Youqian explained.
As soon as the magic was displayed, the secretary of the main book only felt as if he was drunk, and after returning home in a daze, Yan Chixia's figure disappeared directly into the home of the master book.
...
"The day after tomorrow is the Dragon King Sacrifice, you all have spirits!"
"In case a sacrifice escapes!"
"Lao Tzu wants your life!!"
A few big men with evil appearances surrounded a huge iron cage, and it was impossible to see what was inside, but just by looking at the extremely nervous looks of the guards around them, they could know that they were not simple creatures.
"Boss, these guys have already hurt more than 20 of our brothers, if we continue to do this..."
Haizhou City was already quite wealthy, and there were few floating populations, and the local gangs did not have much fresh blood to join, and the death and injury of more than 20 people was already a very heavy loss.
However, there are big people pressing on it, and even the gang leader can't say anything, so he can only collect all the manpower scattered in Haizhou City to make up for the loss of manpower.
"Okay, don't talk about it, it's just these two days."
"When it's over, Lao Tzu invites you to go and relax!"
The leader, with a bare head and a few scars on his face, couldn't help but flash a trace of extremely secret jealousy when his eyes swept over the iron cage.
Then he patted his little brother on the shoulder.
I didn't forget to give instructions again.
"Cheer up Lao Tzu, how did those guys get hurt before, don't Lao Tzu say it again!"
"With your mother, Lao Tzu is the same as your mother!"
"Gan!"
There was a reminder and a curse in his mouth, and the bald man didn't go far, but turned a corner and went to the front room.
I'm also afraid that if something happens again, no one here can handle it.
...
It is not uncommon for there to be similar iron cages all over Haizhou City, and they can even be described as densely populated.
A large number of people are stationed, but even the merchants who often come here are not aware of this, but they just feel that the atmosphere in Haizhou City seems to be a little strange.
This also made Haizhou City a little caught off guard when it was closed down, even if it was these maritime merchants who often went to various places, the traveling merchants were a little caught off guard.
As for those who had already discovered some clues, they had already left Haizhou City a few days ago, and they just ordered the people who stayed in Haizhou City to quickly unload their goods and put their things into the warehouse.
It's not that some of these merchants will not know the prophet, but this subconscious departure from the center of the storm is the instinct of some merchants.
It's just that the sudden blockade of Haizhou City still caused a lot of conflicts, especially the sudden silence of the governor's mansion, which also made some people guess that something was wrong.
...
"Interesting..."
"I didn't expect you to be so careful, and even some of the circumstances of the establishment of Haizhou City have been clarified."
"Sun Li Mihei's four families..."
Zhao Youqian was flipping through some of the classics that Yan Chixia had gotten at this time, some of which he had printed from his memory with spells, and some of which he had brought back by using his magic skills and doing the shadowless gentleman's things.
Of course, he still left a lot of money for other people's families, at least enough to pay for the books.
"I'm not stupid, this matter has been counted since the Laoshan incident, and it is definitely not enough."
"When I noticed that Haizhou City was established less than three hundred years ago, just earlier than the Great Jin Dynasty, I found some clues."
"Until now, if you continue to look through this local chronicle, the few companies that founded Haizhou City have gradually fallen into decline over the years, which is simply an extremely abnormal thing."
"I know that this matter must have something to do with the Dragon King Sacrifice."
Yan Chixia took a sip of wine proudly.
Then he pointed to the book of local chronicles that Zhao Youqian was holding in his hand and laughed.
"The most important thing is what is written in this book, those sacrifices of the Dragon King Sacrifice!"
"Half-demon!!"
