"You lead the secret guards, look for the whereabouts of strangers in Daxing City, and if you find them, you will be killed."

"What if there were people as tall as strangers?" Narcissus is weak.

The empress narrowed her eyes: "Kill!" ”

Seeing the empress's fierce expression, Narcissus subconsciously snorted, and then hurriedly said, "Obey." ”

"In addition, Shen Xiping and Ning Xi have experience in fighting with strangers, you can bring the two of them to identify them, but you must not reveal half a word."

"I understand."

After the narcissus went down, Liu Maolin asked the empress: "Your Majesty, where is the Taifu now?" ”

Liu Maolin's words directly asked the empress, so that the empress snorted and didn't know how to answer.

To be honest, she doesn't know where Wang Xiaolai is now, she only knows that Wang Xiaolai was taken away by Yuluo City, just after April, when she just entered May, and now in mid-July, for more than two months, there is no news of Wang Xiaolai from the empress.

"Where is Xiao Laizi, it's inconvenient to talk about it, what's wrong with Lao Xiangguo, you have something to do with him?" The Empress asked.

Liu Maolin said: "Right now, Daxing City needs a military head who is in charge of the overall situation, this person, whether it is Wang Taifu or the Eighth Prince, is far stronger than Cai Bingwen, otherwise, if the news of the stranger is accidentally leaked out, the people are panicked, just ask Your Majesty, at that time, who will make the people feel at ease?" ”

The empress gritted her teeth: "In this case, then I will summon the imperial uncle back." ”

"Is it really too Fu to return?" Liu Maolin frowned and asked.

The empress said in her heart that if I knew where he was, would I call him back?

But thinking about it, the empress was still embarrassed to say that she couldn't find Wang Xiaolai.

coughed twice and said, "It's decided, I will summon Uncle Huang to return to Beijing." ”

Liu Maolin: "···"

A letter was sent to the Saibei Corridor, and the result was not to be said for the time being, but to talk about the time in between.

Narcissus received the order of the empress and led the secret guards to investigate and secretly visit Daxing City to find traces of strangers.

Shen Xiping and Ning Xi were surprised when they first heard that there were giants more than a foot tall in Daxing City, and the former even said, "Why are so many people in Daxing City so tall?" What did they eat as children? ”

Regarding Shen Xiping's question, Narcissus didn't bother to deal with him.

During the January search, five hiding places for strangers were found in Daxing City.

The five locations, combined, are close to the one hundred and eighty Inhumans, and the first few are easy to say, especially the fifth Inhuman hiding place, not to mention the concealment, there are still many of them.

Where do you say they are hidden?

Zhao Yuanche, who was previously known as one of the twin walls of Sui and Yang, still remembers?

After the old general was martyred, the family house has been deserted, and his grandson Zhao Qi was adopted by Liu Maolin, which means that there is no one in the huge mansion.

The neighbors also moved less, and gradually, the yard became overgrown with weeds and tall trees.

From the outside, it will only be associated with the word "haunted house" and "desolate".

About thirty or so Inhumans are hiding here.

Narcissus originally wanted to take the secret guards to sneak in and secretly solve the battle, but unexpectedly, the group of strangers actually knew about it the moment Narcissus and the others entered the Zhao family's house.

After all, adding up the Inhuman stronghold destroyed by Shen Xiping, and the Inhuman stronghold destroyed by Narcissus, there are enough five places that have been discovered, how can the remaining group of Inhumans not be wary?

They planted captive tarantulas and earth ants in their yards, and when they saw narcissus, they issued a warning.

Although the actions of the secret guards were in the dead of night, as soon as the battle began, it still alarmed the neighbors on the left and right.

Thirty-seven strangers, none of whom survived.

The Dark Guard killed two people in the battle and seriously injured countless people.

If it's just these, it's nothing, after all, the mission I encountered before was even greater than the loss of this mission to encircle and suppress the Inhumans.

But, only one thing.

Inhuman has been exposed to the public's field of vision.

I don't know who spread the news first, one spread ten, ten spread hundreds, compared to dawn, the people in the south of the city surrounded the street where Zhao Yuanche was located.

These people had never seen a man a foot tall.

Surrounded by enthusiastic people, Narcissus didn't know what to do.

It's not going to go, it's not going to go.

If you don't leave, the members of the secret guard will be exposed even more, and if you go, the corpses of the people who were mutilated by the strangers will be piled up in the courtyard, nearly two hundred corpses, which is really terrifying.

If the people see this, I am afraid that they will be even more afraid.

For a time, Narcissus was in trouble.

No matter where there is no shortage of curious lords, a few people secretly climbed the wall of the neighbor's courtyard of the Zhao family to look inside, but this look, but this look frightened the three souls out of the shell, and the seven spirits left the body.

The eyes are full of blood, like purgatory on earth.

By the morning light, you can see the traces of those corpses that have been gnawed, and they are disemboweled.

The people who saw this scene vomited.

Even if these people exaggerated what they saw, they told the rest of the people to listen.

Rumors are the fastest to spread, not to mention, is it this kind of shocking case involving hundreds of lives?

The entire city of Daxing was boiling.

It was better when it was spread before, but later, it turned into a ghost from hell and killed those innocent people.

In just three days, it can be said that Daxing City has made people panic.

It's not that the empress didn't want to let the secret guards withdraw, but they were surrounded by the people who came to see the truth, and it was impossible to withdraw.

In the end, the empress had no choice but to order the new Yulin Captain Zhang Chuang, leading the internal guards, to forcibly bring out the corpses of the people and the secret guards, and ordered that the people were strictly forbidden to talk about the matter.

What are you afraid of, the empress's series of remedies not only suppressed this evil trend, but made the people more afraid of those strangers.

There are all kinds of rumors among the people, and this feeling is really like the end of the world.

With Daxing City as the central point, this rumor quickly spread around Daxing City.

Even, there are more daring bandits and thieves, pretending to be strangers, breaking into the house openly and robbing businessmen.

When the local officials saw it, they were all afraid and did not dare to arrest it.

In the end, this evil wind arose in Daxing City.

The empress had no choice but to send an army to suppress it.

However, repression is not the most effective method.

This move, instead of suppressing this chaotic atmosphere, has encouraged their ferocity.

There are chaos in Daxing City every day, and the honest people are hiding at home and dare not go out.

It's as if everything has returned to the appearance of Zhao Sui's rebellion.

It was in this environment that Wang Xiaolai came back with the Eight Sages King.

The first thing the two of them did when they came back was to go to the palace to meet the empress.

···

In the imperial study, the empress, who had been frowning for a month, looked at Wang Xiaolai, whose face was still a little pale and her body was still a little weak, and a trace of distress appeared on her face: "Little Laizi, why are you injured again?" ”

Wang Xiaolai waved his hand: "No, it's not Your Majesty, it's a small injury." ”

"Who did it?" The Empress frowned.

Wang Xiaolai thought for a while: "Holy Monarch." ”

"Holy Monarch!" The empress was shocked.

The Eight Sages had known about this for a long time, so they were not surprised at all.

Under the empress's questioning, Wang Xiaolai told all about Yuluocheng taking him to the frozen plain.

Of course, Wang Xiaolai also concealed the things that should be hidden.

Seeing the empress's worried and worried expression, Wang Xiaolai snorted, and then looked serious: "Your Majesty, those things will be talked about later, the key now is how to solve the public opinion turmoil in Daxing City." ”

Empress: "···"

Wang Xiaolai said: "If you let this public opinion go down and start a war with Yiren in the future, how will you fight?" ”

Saying that, Wang Xiao looked at Narcissus: "Sister Narcissus should know how these Inhumans are fighting, right?" ”

Narcissus pursed his lips: "Two aliens, about equal to one member of the Dark Guard." ”

The empress frowned: "Are these aliens so powerful?" ”

The empress couldn't be clearer about the combat effectiveness of the dark guard, and after hearing Narcissus's words, she couldn't help but be surprised.

Narcissus nodded.

Wang Xiaolai rubbed his temples and said: "Yes, these Inhumans are so strong in combat, our original plan was to hide it from the people, and wait for the front line to win against the Inhumans before telling the truth of the matter, the most important thing is not to let the people be timid without a fight." ”

The Eight Sages King said quietly: "But the key now is that the people are already timid. ”
