Chapter 37: Memories of Horror
Bucklu's mansion was always deserted.
This middle-aged man did not take office by competition, he has been sitting on the throne of the city lord for more than 20 years.
Those nobles or large clans would rather be a small person in a rich place than come to the border to be the lord of the city.
One is the lack of resources, and the other is the lack of security.
Before he entered the mansion, Ye Ling saw Buck with a big belly and watched at the door of his house.
As soon as he saw Ye Ling, Buck Lu was obviously excited, his eyes widened, and he hurriedly welcomed them into the mansion.
Entering the mansion, Ye Ling introduced the identity of Miss Xiaotang to Buckyu.
Ye Ling came to the mansion to reassure Buck and let Xiaotang tell all the clues he knew in front of the two.
It's a pity that Xiaotang doesn't provide many clues.
"All I know is that there are a lot of people around me who have been arrested, most of them are young, some of them are younger than me. ”
Immediately, Baklu asked Xiaotang where they were being held.
Xiaotang shook his head again and again, and said: "I don't know the exact location, they will detain us in pairs, whenever they feed us medicine or need to be taken out of the cell for other things, they will put black cloth bags around our heads and tie our hands." ”
"Then ......," the Ba City Lord was obviously trying his best to control his emotions, "how did you escape?"
"My cellmate and I had been planning for a long time, and when the men were feeding us medicine again, we had abdominal pain and rushed out of the pipe where they threw the bodies. ”
The pipe was so long that we ended up falling into a lake that stinked so foul that we had our hands tied and we had to let the current lift us to the surface. ”
"Where is the lake?!" Buck couldn't wait for a moment.
"As I said, I don't know this place in Western Xinjiang. Xiaotang was a little dissatisfied with Buck's questioning, but continued to answer: "The lake is triangular, and on one of the shores, there are two protruding small spikes, and some corpses are pushed onto the shore and piled up on those two spikes...... It's disgusting, I can't go on. ”
After retching a few times, Xiaotang added: "It's probably the northwest location? It was night, and there were people chasing after us, so we only dared to run away, and we didn't pay attention to many things." ”
At this time, Buckyu's face turned pale with a "swish".
The man, who was nearly half a hundred years old, was trembling at this time, and said six words to Ye Ling faintly: "Niutou Lake, West Prison Mountain, ......"
Seeing that Ye Ling's face did not fluctuate, Ba Kelu said again: "That is the forbidden land of our western frontier, and no one can enter it." ”
"Because there's a scorpion fishing there?" Ye Ling said.
Buck shook his head vigorously, "What's more, it used to be an ancient battlefield, perennially soaked in the resentment of dead soldiers, poison everywhere, poisonous insects everywhere!"
Speaking of this, his words suddenly changed, and he lowered his head and sighed: "Brother Ye, according to your instructions yesterday, there were more than a dozen people in the displaced area last night, and they were all relatively young. ”
At this point, the whereabouts of these people are self-evident.
"Today is the outcast, tomorrow will be the people in my city!" Baklu sighed: "Since I am the city lord, I must fulfill the duties of the city lord, and every day I will send the elite soldiers of Cangyun City to the West Prison Mountain to exterminate the group of poisonous insects!"
Ye Ling hurriedly pressed the shoulder of the Ba City Lord, "Ba City Lord, don't be impatient, the time is not yet ripe, you give me a day, tomorrow at this time, I will go out with you to ensure the safety of the Cangyun City soldiers!"
He made it clear what was at stake, told Buck that his rash expedition might lead to serious results, and advised him to calm down and give Ye Ling a day to prepare for the station.
Seeing that Ye Ling looked confident, he really grasped the life-saving straw, grabbed Ye Ling's arm with both hands, and asked, "What kind of trick does Brother Ye have?"
"Hurry up and buy me a vat, a Dan furnace, and I'll be back in a few hours." ”
"Dan furnace, does Brother Ye want to refine the pill, today is alchemy, tomorrow it is too late to use it, right?"
Ye Ling smiled faintly and said, "You don't have to worry about this, when I come back, everything will be clear." ”
"Okay, I'll just get it. Buck agreed.
There are so many things to explain, it's time for Ye Ling to implement the plan.
"Then we'll leave first, and we'll be back later, and we'll come in through the back door, so you don't have to wait at the door. ”
"Okay, the safety of Cangyun City depends entirely on Brother Ye!"
When he walked out of Cangyun City, Ye Ling suddenly felt a sense of being in danger, and he actually felt a little nervous.
When he was a generation of war kings, he never felt nervous about fighting.
In this mundane world, there are actually too many things that tug at his heartstrings and make him afraid of failure.
In front of the Rejuvenation Hall, there is still a long queue today, and it is like two worlds with the City Lord's Mansion.
"Xiaotang, are you nervous?" Ye Ling squeezed Miss Xiaotang's hand.
"It's okay, it's just this Rejuvenation Hall...... It was uncomfortable to watch. ”
The corners of Ye Ling's mouth curled slightly, revealing a sneer.
"After you go in for a while, you can just watch the play, and I'll talk to them. ”
"Well, I listen to Brother Ye. ”
Instead of lining up, the two entered from the side of the long line.
At this time, a young man, who was about 20 years old at most, a few days older than Ye Ling, walked briskly towards the two with a broom in his hand.
"Hey, hey, you two kids, just line up to buy medicine!"
As he spoke, the young man drove people out with his broom.
"You guy, you drive people away without asking the reason, do you have such a business?"
After listening to Ye Ling's words, the people in line were not happy.
"The strangers from there don't know the rules!"
"Listening to the accent is from Shaojing, the people from the capital are different, and it is estimated that they are used to being powerful and blessed~"
The young man received the support of the locals, and his arrogance was even more arrogant.
But Ye Ling didn't plan to waste time with such a small child.
He casually took out a 500 gold silver ticket, pinched it with his two fingers, and said lightly to the young man: "The queue to buy the local number Rejuvenation Pill, our brothers and sisters, we can come with good things today, it seems that according to your own rules, the two of us don't have to line up, right?"
The young man, and the people, were speechless.
Not long after, a middle-aged man in a satin robe greeted Ye Ling respectfully.
"This little brother, disrespectful and disrespectful, you want to buy the human brand pill, right? Please come in quickly. ”
The middle-aged man walked up to the young man, suddenly raised his leg and kicked it, "Why are you stunned? Why don't you apologize to the little brother soon!"
The young man waved at Ye Ling again and again, and when his eyes caught glimpse of Miss Xiaotang, he also bowed to her again and again.
"No need, don't blame those who don't know. ”
Ye Ling raised his hand and walked towards the store.
