Chapter Twenty-Nine: An Ominous Omen
"Wu Zixuan is really blind, and she actually gave Xiaobai to you, a big liar!" Hearing Ping'an say this, Joanna figured out her previous confusion and learned that Xiaobai was given to him by Wu Zixuan, but she couldn't say anything, so she had no good air.

"Why are you blind, that's Her Royal Highness the Princess, she has vision, okay!"
"I said that if you are blind, you are blind, you, shut up!" Seeing that Ping'an was still praising Wu Zixuan in front of her, Joanna became more and more unhappy, and while saying this, she grabbed Ping'an's waist with both hands at the same time, "threatening".
"Okay, okay, I won't talk about it! Look, I'm about to arrive at the county seat of Kolos!" I don't know where Joanna came from, the nameless fire felt that the skin and flesh around her waist were "held" by a pair of small hands, and Ping An quickly changed the topic with interest, and pointed to a city not far below and said.
"So soon?" Joanna was distracted by the words.
"The county seat of Kolos is only a hundred miles away from where we set off just now, and of course it is fast at Xiaobai's speed. I'm going to stay here for a while, maybe a few more days, and then we'll head straight to the Holy Land of Madias!"
"You're going to stay here for a few days, so where am I going?"
"Hmm... I'll take you into the city to find a hotel to stay in for a few days, but the hotel in this county town may not have a good environment, and Her Royal Highness a princess like you probably can't look down on it, so I'll barely make do with it! When the time comes, I'll take you with me!"
"That's not going to work, what if you leave me alone and run here?"
"I'm also your life-saver, right, you don't have any trust in me?" Ping An said helplessly.
"No, who's calling... Who called you to lie to me before!" Joanna whispered, seemingly a little lacking in confidence.
"Since it's not, then obediently listen to my arrangement, I'm safe, what are you worried about!" Ping'an's words revealed an extremely confident momentum that could not be refuted.
"That's... Well, I'll listen to you. Joanna was so shocked by Ping'an's anger that she could only agree obediently.
"Xiaobai, just let us go here, let's go into the city by ourselves, you are also very big now, don't scare people. You'll stay outside the city for the past few days, don't run far, I'll call you when I need to find you, you know!"
"Whew!" Hearing the command, Xiaobai responded with a scream, indicating that he understood.
......
In a short time, Ping'an and Joanna arrived at the foot of Kolos, and through the city gates, they could enter it.
"Strange!" Coming to the city gate, Ping An couldn't help but feel a little different from a few years ago. At the gates of Kolos stood a dozen or so soldiers dressed in the armor of the Holy See Templars, who seemed to be on duty here. I remember that these things were all arranged by the defending army of the Apulon Empire in the past, but now they have been replaced by people from the Holy See.
"What's wrong?" asked Joanna.
"It's nothing, let's go to the city!" said Ping'an, taking the lead and entering the city.
As soon as he entered the city, Ping'an immediately smelled a faint smell of blood, which seemed to be quite fresh, and it should have not been long after seeing blood. At a glance, I found that there were traces of dry blood everywhere, although it had been washed by someone, but there were still a lot of visible dry blood stains. There was no one around, only a few city dwellers wandering aimlessly around, their expressions dull and their faces faded. Thinking of the soldiers of the Holy See Templar Order that he saw when he entered the city, he estimated that something must have happened in Kolos City recently, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried about his father and the villagers of Belka who stayed in Kolos City.
Needless to settle Joanna first, Ping An hurriedly ran to the garrison barracks where the villagers of Belka had temporarily stayed.
"Eh, where are you going, wait for me!" Seeing Ping'an, he suddenly ran away, making Joanna still a little confused, so she could only quickly follow Ping'an.
The barracks were not far from the city gate, only less than a mile away, and Ping An quickly rushed to it. When I came to the door of the barracks, I found that the gate of the barracks was smashed and fell to the side, and it seemed that something had really happened, and a bad premonition came to my heart.
Walking into the barracks, what I saw was a mess, as if someone had raided the house, and there were some blood stains on the ground that had not completely dried, it seemed that there had been a fight and confrontation in the barracks, no one was there, all of them should have been taken away, seeing this scene made Ping'an's face stiff and felt extremely angry.
"What are you doing so fast, I'm so tired!" said Joanna, catching up.
"Let's go!" Ping An said only one word, and then turned to leave.
"What are you going? I'm going to ...... again when I just came," Joanna hadn't finished speaking, when she noticed the tragic situation in the huge barracks in front of her, realized that something serious had happened, and knew that the situation was not right now, so she quickly closed her mouth and chased after Ping'an.
"Uncle, has anything happened in Kolos City recently?" When he came to the street, he saw an elderly man sitting on the ground leaning against the wall and looking around, and Ping An hurriedly went over and asked.
"What's a big deal?" said the elder uncle when he heard someone coming to ask.
"Yes, it's a big deal!
ā... Young man, you've just arrived in Kolos City!" The uncle asked after a pause.
"Yes, uncle, I just think that something big should have happened in this Kolos City recently, so I came to ask you for verification. ā
"If you say that there is a big event, there will be a big event every day!" to this question, the uncle replied meaningfully.
"Every day there is something big?... What about the biggest thing that has happened recently?" Hearing this answer, Ping An felt that things seemed more complicated.
"Recently, if you ask about the last night, it's going to be last night!"
"Uncle, then please tell me what happened last night!" Hearing the uncle say that it was last night, this statement is also very consistent with the discovery of peace, and the bloodstains at the gate of the city and the bloodstains in the temporary barracks of the villagers of Belka should have appeared at this time last night.
"What's the use of saying this, you can go to the city lord's mansion in the center of the county and take a look. Anyway, it's all one death, and if you die sooner or later, you have to die!" The uncle didn't seem interested in answering Ping'an's question, but he explained the seriousness of the matter.
