Zhang Yousheng was talking to two mechanics not far away, and when he turned around and saw him, he greeted him and said, "In another half an hour, these Force Circles will all be installed." ”
Zhang Boqian nodded, and said to an adjutant behind him: "All other places will be in place by noon tomorrow." The adjutant replied yes and immediately ran to give the order.
Zhang Yousheng followed Zhang Boqian into the hotel, "Brother Lobby, how did you know that there was a problem with the spatial fluctuations here?"
He was really curious, it stands to reason that Zhang Boqian has been on the front line, and it is impossible to know the situation on the hot springs, but when Zhang Boqian gathered the private army, he was like an unknown prophet and asked someone to bring a large number of Force Arrays.
Zhang Boqian said lightly: "I don't know. ”
Zhang Yousheng was stunned.
"If Lin Xitang planned this matter by himself, it would be impossible to find any useful clues, and if he was trapped, it would be impossible not to find traces. ”
Zhang Yousheng was speechless, Zhang Boqian's logic was really simple, there was no abnormality, Lin Xitang's fault, and it was not his fault that the abnormality was detected. Well, on second thought, maybe it's not all unreasonable.
Lin Xitang's great Yantian technique has been completed, and his layout is like an antelope hanging on its horns, and there is no trace to be found, otherwise how can he compete with Xungui when the new emperor is weak, and step by step to today's pattern.
In the same way, with his ability, he should not be killed quietly, the force fluctuations left by the god-level battle will not disappear completely for at least ten days and a half months, and the trap of trapping and killing the god-general is the same, and the manpower and material resources required will expose more horses' feet.
The winding paths and rocky bridges inside the "Deep Rock" hotel create a wild interest in the city. In particular, the VIP area is an independent courtyard with a hot spring, with flowers and trees, all of which are different.
The room booked by Lin Xitang is called "Chonglou", a crescent-shaped hot spring in the courtyard, and the waterside is full of heavy buildings, which is the flowering period, and the lanceolate green calyx leaves draw out petals of the same color, and the flowers and leaves cannot be distinguished, and the air is filled with a very faint, slightly bitter medicinal fragrance.
When Zhang Boqian walked into the courtyard, he took a look at the green plants. Chonglou is slightly cold, and it is poisonous, and it can attack poison and detoxify fever. In the valley where the Huangquan cultivation room is located, there is perennial steam, and there are large heavy buildings growing on the gravel soil in the middle of the mountain.
The originally elegantly furnished room was now turned into an eerie and bloody torture chamber, with an unnaturally twisted body curled up in a pool of blood on the ground, unknown whether it was alive or dead. There was also a torture rack erected next to it, on which a person was tied with iron chains.
Several private soldiers in the room were all good at Zhang's work, and they saluted when they saw Zhang Boqian and Zhang Yousheng. The tall and thin middle-aged man led by him was a little frightened and came to ask for sin. It turned out that it took them more than an hour, but they couldn't ask a word from the mouth of the captain of Lin Xitang's personal guard.
Zhang Boqian looked down at Lin Wu, who was unconscious on the ground, and didn't say anything, only waved his hand.
The tall and thin middle-aged man understood, and together with his companions, he set Lin Wu up, and then opened a narrow metal trough next to him and threw the person in.
Zhang Yousheng couldn't help but touch his nose, if he was not mistaken, that metal tank was a special container for body repair liquid. For martial artists, as long as they don't hurt the Force node or the Force Vortex, no matter how serious the physical injury is, it will not be fatal, even if they have broken hands and feet, they can be taken back. It's just that the pain caused by the injury during the period is still there, and it will not be alleviated at all.
The people tied to the rack were intact and did not appear to have been tortured. The tall, thin middle-aged man walked over and removed the gag from the man's mouth to prevent accidents.
After the man coughed a few times, he said a little angrily: "Prince Danguo, what are you doing here?!"
Most of the people who would call Zhang Boqian like this are also children of the great family, and they don't have a good relationship with the Zhang family. Zhang Yousheng suddenly felt that the person was a little familiar, and after looking at it several times, he couldn't help frowning.
The other party is really not an ordinary officer, this person's name is Shi Yinglai, a major general in the official residence, and he is still the same year as Zhang Boqian and Lin Xitang Tianqi Military Academy, and is currently serving as the chief of staff in Lin Xitang's regiment.
Zhang Boqian asked in a flat tone: "What is Lin Xitang doing in the hot spring?"
Shi Yinglai was so angry that his face turned red, and at the same time his scalp was numb, he and Zhang Boqian, classmates for several years, knew a lot about this unscrupulous character, and knew that if he didn't answer, he would definitely suffer a loss.
Zhang Boqian asked again, "What is Lin Xitang doing in the hot spring?" His tone did not change by the halfest, and he even sounded very calm.
Shi Yinglai's face changed several times, took a deep breath, and said, "The general is here for a vacation." ”
Zhang Boqian's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, as if lightning flashed.
Shi Yinglai was stabbed in severe pain in his eyes, and he looked away and said quickly: "The general once mentioned that he might meet an old friend who he hadn't met for a long time here, but he didn't say who it was. After the general's accident, no one was able to enter or leave the hot springs. So maybe the man can still be found, but it shouldn't have anything to do with the general's disappearance. ”
Zhang Boqian was noncommittal, "How did you find out that he was missing?"
Shi Yinglai said: "This matter is very strange, we have just arrived at 'Deep Rock', half of us are still outside to sort out equipment and pack up vehicles, and the rest have people to arrange accommodation and some people to deal with trivial affairs. Lin Wu has never been far from the general, and it was he and several guards and generals who came to resettle in the heavy building. It is said that the general went into the house to rest, and when he knocked on the door again, there was no one inside, but they kept watch outside, and they never saw anyone entering or leaving, nor did they hear any unusual movements!"
Zhang Boqian said lightly: "I don't believe it." ”
Shi Yinglai suddenly felt an invisible huge force pressing on his chest, as if he wanted to squeeze out all the air in his chest, and he couldn't help but change his color in shock, and shouted: "Zhang Shizi, even if you take my confession, you won't be able to close the case!"
Calling out these words, Shi Yinglai only felt that his chest that was about to collapse loosened, and he hurriedly gasped, and then said: "Zhang Shizi, I have a love affair to return alone!"
Zhang Boqian lowered his eyes slightly, his face was unpredictable, and he raised his hand after a while.
Zhang Yousheng's face was a little ugly, but he didn't say anything, and retreated with several private soldiers.
Shi Yinglai didn't wait for Zhang Boqian to urge, and immediately said: "I am Your Majesty's person!"
Zhang Boqian suddenly raised his eyes, his breath moved, and the surrounding space was full of sense, and the invisible qi vortex brought a whistling sound, like countless sharp blades cutting through the air.
Shi Yinglai was startled, and he didn't care that every breath was accompanied by severe pain, and he hurriedly explained, "My secret post is in the Privy Council Supervision Department, and His Majesty sent me to General Lin to just observe, and the rest of the things will not move. Therefore, Zhang Shizi, if you want to use my confession to corroborate anything, you won't be able to pass the test in front of Your Majesty. ”
Zhang Boqian suddenly laughed, and the coercion dissipated, "What do you want to do? What I want to check is the truth." ”
Shi Yinglai hurriedly said: "What I just said is the truth, there is really no clue to this matter, otherwise we would not have found nothing in the past few days." ”
Zhang Boqian stared at him for a while, and then called someone to come in and put Shi Yinglai down from the torture rack.
