Volume 2: The Flame Blooms the Blood River Chapter 34: Unintentional Pedestrians
"Oh? When Nipar heard this, he suddenly became interested, and smiled kindly. "Tell me how to do diplomacy and how to win over people?"
"Brother was so handsome just now!" Allure smiled cutely, walked behind Ye Qingfeng, stroked his delicate hand, and rubbed his shoulder.
"Yes, the way Brother Qingfeng spoke just now is almost going to fascinate so many girls!" Messisi was also teasing on the side, extremely cute.
Ye Qingfeng heard this, his fingers bent, and he scraped the tip of Messixi's nose, and when he saw Messixi's coquettishness, he smiled. "Princess, how old are you?
"It's not a study, I'm just attracted by this pretending to be forced!" Liu Mingyue also stepped forward, grabbed Ye Qingfeng's arm, and stuck out her tongue in a funny way.
Seeing this, Mora just smiled at the corners of her mouth and did not speak. However, Mora also has a different kind of affection for these people now, as if they are brothers and sisters, and the courtesy of the monarch and the minister is not so obvious.
Ye Qingfeng didn't have time to make a fuss at all, otherwise he would definitely educate the three girls, so he continued to look at Niphar, pointed his finger to a place on the map, and said. "Grandpa, I don't think we need to contact the land of the mountains, because Glago was ambushed by the lord of the land of the mountains, and wanted to use him to curry favor with Mosesgus. It can be judged that the Lord of the Mountains is a mercenary person, and it is impossible for us to succeed in wooing us. Therefore, we in the western region must guard the border well to prevent sneak attacks by old thieves. ”
When Nibr heard this, he nodded with satisfaction, in fact, he also thought so, the old thief had a changeable temperament, and he would probably not surrender to Moseschus.
Ye Qingfeng then said. "There is no need for us to contact the Fire City area, the City Lord of Fire City, I met Mingyue during the Demon Dragon Ancient Trial, and that person is not good or bad. Moreover, Sakuradu borders on the Huocheng area is only 70 kilometers boundary, where the mountains are crisscrossed, the rivers are dense, and there is only one official road for the army to pass, we can close the country and put 200,000 warriors to defend in the nearest Peony Town!"
"Oh?" Nibal asked rhetorically, frowning slightly. "Why do you want to put so many warriors here?"
Ye Qingfeng sank and replied. "I think the ancient army of Moses is very likely to attack Sakurado from the Fire City area. Because the lord of the land of mountains can catch Melagor as soon as the kingdom changes, presumably he is not wholeheartedly surrendering to Moses at all, but whoever is strong, he will be biased!
Niphar's approving gaze fell, and then he patted Ye Qingfeng's shoulder and said with a smile. "Okay! You're right, I'm not wrong, you go on!"
"Hmm!" Ye Qingfeng nodded heavily, and pointed to a place. "If it is really as we guessed, the army of Moses Gu attacked Sakuradu along the area of Fire City, where the mountains and rivers are crisscrossed, and it is not difficult to resist, if the army cannot advance, the next step will definitely be to borrow the country of light, I can personally go to the Lord of the country of light and persuade him to resist Moses Gu together. ”
When Nibr heard this, a glint drifted through his eyes. As if he was more than ten years younger all of a sudden, the wrinkles of his old age were scattered with a smile, and he stepped forward and gently patted Ye Qingfeng's shoulder. "Okay, your thoughts coincide with mine, it's rare that you have such a flexible view at such a young age, I really didn't see the wrong person!"
Ye Qingfeng was slapped twice, and he felt very painful, Nipar's hand was still too strong, worthy of being the teacher of the god of war Bonitz, and he knew that he didn't mean to shoot himself, so he couldn't say it, so he had to endure the pain, frowning and smiling. "Grandpa, I used to like to read books on the space station, and I read the ...... 5 times"
Before Ye Qingfeng's words could be finished, a guard outside the main hall rushed into the main hall and knelt directly in front of Nibal. "Tell the Lord! Phoenix City City Division suddenly asks to see you!"
"You let him in, I just wanted to ask him why he didn't come to the general's succession ceremony today. When Nibr heard this, his smile froze, and he walked back to the high platform on his crutches, sat down in his chair, lit his pipe, and took a heavy breath.
From time to time, under the leadership of the guards, a man dressed in official uniform with a face full of vicissitudes ran into the hall quickly, and then knelt on one knee, his eyes were full of horror, and he said breathlessly. "Guojue, Phoenix, there is a shocking event!"
Nibal looked at the man's expression, frowned, and opened his mouth to reprimand. "Abruptly, a city division, can you pay attention to some manners? What are you afraid of? Something is wrong, sit down and talk slowly!"
When the words fell, Abrupt Wu'er bowed to the high platform, walked to the side of the chair and sat down, poured a glass of water, calmed down and said. "This is how things look like this!"
Ye Qingfeng sat aside, listening to this abrupt narration, he could also feel his sense of fear, and that pale, bloody, and terrifying picture gradually appeared in his mind.
......
[Early yesterday morning, I was going to come to Huadu to participate in the general's award, because Phoenix is more than 300 kilometers away from Huadu, and the journey is one day and one night.
As a result, as soon as Tu Wu'er was about to go out, he was stopped by his own city guard general, Bazhai, who entered the city division's mansion and knelt on one knee, his eyes full of horror.
Tu Wu'er is puzzled, he is not very familiar with this Bazhai, but a few days ago, he won the martial arts competition, and was promoted to the general of the city by Tu Wu'er, it stands to reason that there should be nothing to make him afraid of being like this.
Abruptly, her finger nodded. "Don't worry, speak slowly!"
Bazhai got up, his chest was still rising and falling violently, it seemed that he had been running for a long time, and only said in a calm tone after a while. "Lord Joshi, this morning, I was on duty for a while while when the guards in charge of checking the passing of people were on shift. At that time, a man with a disheveled hair and a sallow face came to me, and I went up to ask for my ID, but the man did not speak, but walked past me and still walked towards the city gate, and when I asked him for my ID for the second time, the man turned his head to look at me!"
Speaking of this, the general defending the city pulled out the village, and the fear in his eyes deepened by a hundred percent.
Looking at this expression suddenly, she unconsciously began to tremble in her heart! "What's going on, you don't need to be so detailed, I still have urgent things to do!"
"Hmm!" Bazhai nodded, swallowed heavily, and said again. "Lord Joji, when I saw that man's face clearly, my soul was almost frightened, he had no eyes!
"What!" When she heard this, she chuckled in her heart, and stood up unconsciously!
According to the description of Bazhai, that person's face is sallow, his eyes are not gouged out, and blood is still flowing, and his cloak is still scattered? Isn't this torture alive?
Thinking of this, Tu Wu'er said angrily. "Where is he now? We need to file a case for this! The methods are so cruel, we must catch this thief!"
The fear in Kebazhai's eyes did not disappear, and then he covered his face with his hands and roared twice, while gasping for breath twice. "Lord Chengsi, this is not the end, the sky has not yet dawned just now, after I stopped that person, he fell straight down, I went up to check, and found that he had no heart!"
"What! Are you sure you're not telling me a ghost story? Are you telling the truth?" The abrupt child can't believe his ears, if the eyeless can understand, then the heartlessness is not normal, what kind of creature can walk without the heart?
Bazhai nodded and got up, but the horror in his eyes was much less, probably because of the things that were pressed in his heart. "My lord, I suspect it's a ghost! He's still lying at the gates!"
The more Tu Wu'er listened, the more unbelievable he felt, so he reprimanded. "Bazhai, you are also a city defender, how can you speak so vaguely?
When Kebazhai heard this, he quibbled, "Lord Chengsi, I really didn't lie, if you don't believe me, you can go to the city gate with me now to have a look, and all the soldiers guarding the city can testify!"
Tuwu'er also knows which is more important, as the head of a city, of course, the lives of civilians are the most important, and it can be explained that the general awarded the ceremony late, so he pulled up the village, "Go, I'll go and see with you!"
......
In the main hall of the Guojue Mansion, when Tu Wu'er said this, he poured another glass of water and drank it all, while coughing violently.
Ye Qingfeng watched this city division's body tremble, and then stepped forward and poured him another glass of water.
Tu Wu'er nodded politely with Ye Qingfeng, and then looked at the high platform and continued. "The next thing is for me to follow him to the gate of the city......"
......
[From time to time, the two arrived at the gate of Phoenix City, and suddenly saw that the onlookers around were all citizens of Phoenix City, pointing at the figure covered under the white cloth.
"Have you heard, just after five o'clock in the morning, before dawn, this deceased came here by himself!"
"Yes, yes, I've heard about it too, I guess the whole city knows about it now! This dead man has no heart! And he doesn't have eyes, it's very scary!"
"How can you live without a heart?"
"You're stupid, he's not alive, he's a ghost!!"
The more he listened, the more he listened, the more he didn't know what a ghost looked like, if the ghost appeared so easily, then the kingdom had killed countless bad people in his life, wouldn't he be haunted by evil ghosts?
Thinking of this, Tu Wu'er stepped forward, and the soldiers defending the city got down on one knee very politely. "Joji-sama!"
"No need to be polite, you've all seen this man coming?" With an abrupt wave of his hand, the soldiers all stood up.
At this time, a person walked out of the crowd and said politely. "Joji-sama, I did see him coming, but he was almost the moment he fell!"
Oh?
Hearing this, Abrupt Er squatted down directly and lifted the white cloth of the deceased.
"Oh my mother!" Unexpectedly, the scene in front of him directly frightened Tu Wu'er.
The man was pale, he looked to be about thirty-three or fourteen years old, his body was slightly fat, his hair was scattered, his whole body exuded a foul smell, his eyes had been gouged out alive, and his blood had dried up.
After all, Tu Wu'er has been an official for so many years, and he is also a good hand at solving cases, it stands to reason that this man must have been killed by him, and it is impossible for him to come to this place by himself!
Then, after suddenly lifting the whole white cloth and lifting the deceased's shirt, he found that the deceased's heart had indeed been dug out, and the blood had been emptied, and the limbs were stiff.
Then he got up, staring at Bazhai with puzzled eyes, his voice was a little cold, and mixed with questioning. "You tell me the truth, are you sure this man came by himself?"
Bazhai's eyes were firm, and he didn't have the feeling of being a thief, and when he heard the words, he turned his head to look at the soldiers behind him. "Didn't you all see that this man fell down when he was talking to me!"
"Yes, Lord Chengsi, it is indeed as the general of Bazhai said, we came over when we were changing shifts, and we happened to see the two of us talking about something, but when we ran over, that person fell!" A soldier also said very firmly.
Suddenly Wu'er was confused now, as usual, he tried the case, questioned others and locked his eyes at the same time, watched the plaintiff or defendant answer, and could guess one or two if he lied or not. But the strange thing is that the soldiers are not lying now! This thing is so bizarre!
