Chapter 1332
"The last three places are also the same." True Lord Tongming said: "According to definite news, the leader of the black-armored cavalry wears a Dragon Head mask, and the Dragon Head Totems in these places only lasted for a few days before disappearing."
"Are there strange phenomena where they pass?" Qingyang is knowledgeable and experienced; her first reaction is definitely not a miracle, "This group of people is just using supernatural powers to play gods and ghosts."
What strange things don't happen on the Shining Gold Plain? Hiding their heads and tails with masks is just for ulterior motives.
But why choose the Dragon Head when they wear masks? Is it just because the dragon is imposing and majestic?
It is well known that the Beijia Emperor is of the dragon species and is also very likely a descendant of the former Dragon God. It must be very unhappy after hearing about this.
"The day after the battle in Daishan ended, believers went to check the Dragon Head Totem, and there were no traces of any supernatural powers on the surface." True Lord Tongming said, "It's as if the Dragon Head was carved by hand, or grew out of the wall itself."
"Like growing from the city wall." Qingyang remembered, "The literature describing the Dragon Head Totem in the past also had this sentence."
"Black-armored knights, hmm..." She pondered, "Bai Ziqi rushed here several months later; I will send someone to investigate first."
From Lingxu City to here, one has to cross half of Beijia, the entire Mou Nation, the Ya Nation, and the Shining Gold Plain, and there are many small countries in between. The fastest path Bai Ziqi can choose is to go to the southeast seaport of Beijia to take a boat, and then follow the ocean current to the Shining Gold.
Fastest, but not the shortest. Because there are winding mountains on land blocking the way forward.
Crossing the ocean is not that convenient; she knows, because that's how she came over.
She didn't take the black-armored army to heart originally, but after True Lord Tongming mentioned it, it seemed that there was really a need for investigation.
Why did this group of people want to kill? Except for Zhao Guangzhi wanting to seize Liu Shuheng's city, there was basically no connection between the people they killed.
Why did the black-armored cavalry choose them to attack? True Lord Tongming gave a 'hehe' sound: "They would rather send Bai Ziqi from afar than order you to investigate on the spot."
Qingyang is on the Shining Gold Plain and has the ability, so logically she is the most suitable candidate for investigation.
Although she was driven out of Beijia, she is still a confidant of the Demon Emperor. This point, all the gods know very well.
Qingyang said faintly: "The gods want to appoint a candidate they can trust."
Loyal and capable.
She is only loyal to the Emperor, and the gods simply cannot trust her.
True Lord Tongming asked her: "The last thing, has anything happened in the Three-Color Cave recently?"
Qingyang's face was calm: "I haven't heard of it. What happened?"
"A few too many people died nearby. However, if even you haven't heard of it, then perhaps there is nothing."
Qingyang frowned: "The Three-Color Cave is not under my control; whether something happened or not, what does it have to do with me?"
True Lord Tongming was a little impatient: "Alright, that's all for now. Do you have nothing to offer me?"
Only then did Qingyang take out a copper tube from her bosom and place it on the offering table.
"Many thanks, True Lord."
The middle section of the copper tube was transparent glass, inside which dark red smoke was sealed, sometimes liquefying, sometimes gasifying.
"Eighty percent?" It wasn't even full.
Qingyang said faintly: "I heard that in the current Divine Realm, Punishment Dragon Pillars and Nightmare Qi are priceless."
The value of the Punishment Dragon Pillars has been hyped up five times.
No matter what it is, once it is hyped to this price, it means this is not a price problem at all, but that it is priceless and simply cannot be bought.
True Lord Tongming gave a 'heng' sound.
When the thick smoke dispersed, the Punishment Dragon Pillar was also gone.
Qingyang reopened the doors and windows, let out the choking smoke, and then summoned He Yang over and gave a few instructions.
¥¥¥¥¥
Shining Gold Plain, Chen Family Village in the suburbs of Liu County.
Within a radius of fifteen miles, Chen Family Village is a family in itself. Out of the village, the outside is either farmland or suburbs, and one has to walk several miles to get to the official road.
In the cowshed on the west side of Chen Family Village, a chaos had just subsided.
Five men, ranging from twenty to fifty years old, stood in the fodder room by the shed.
They surrounded a broken wooden table, under which lay a woman, disheveled, her eyes wide open, but her chest had stopped rising and falling.
Blood flowed onto the pasture and seeped into the wooden boards underneath.
"What to do?" Someone said while pulling up his pants, panting heavily, "I didn't want to kill her at all! It, it was her own, she bumped into the corner of the table herself."
"This woman is crazy! You play if you want to play, why keep mentioning her daughter!" The middle-aged man pointed to the woman on the ground, "Do you know why she went crazy? I heard it's because the first two daughters she gave birth to were sold."
"How would I know?" The man tying his pants felt aggrieved, "It has nothing to do with me."
Another companion took over: "What to do now? We can't just throw her here! There are always people coming to the cowshed."
"A dead outsider woman, it's not a big deal!"
"Hey, the Village Master has repeatedly ordered not to attract the attention of the government! If they know Ah Hui died in the village, they will definitely break our legs."
"Don't argue, don't argue!" The middle-aged man interrupted everyone, "We will take her out of the village, and this matter will be settled. Just like Ah Ang said, her origin is unknown; as long as she doesn't die in the village, no one can insist that she has anything to do with us!"
This idea was immediately responded to by the other four.
There was a flatbed cart by the cowshed; they quietly moved the woman onto it, piled the cart full with thick fodder stacks, then hitched a mule, and pushed and pulled it out, not forgetting to lock the door of the fodder room.
Once out of the village gate, everything was easy to handle.
No one noticed that behind the low wall not far away, a pair of bright eyes were quietly staring at this place.
The five of them were busy for a while and were about to push the cart to the village gate when they suddenly remembered:
"Ah, what about that little brat?"
"No, didn't see her." Just now there was an accident, everyone was panicked, and they actually forgot such an important person.
"Ah Ang, you go find her."
Ah Ang responded before asking: "What after finding her?"
This question was met with silence, and everyone didn't know what to do for a while.
Kill her, or keep her?
"She looks quite pretty, it's a pity to kill her directly." The middle-aged man muttered, "Why not do as you said!"
"Me?" The companion who accidentally killed Ah Hui just now pointed to himself, "What did I say?"
"You said, sell that little brat; doesn't Ah Ang happen to know a human trafficker in the county?" The middle-aged man pushed the cart hard, "Sell her, and we will be quiet."
So Ah Ang watched his four companions drive the cart out of the village, and he turned back himself.
But after two hours, he had searched almost the entire village and didn't find the target.
