Chapter 73: Golden Jade Pavilion, Charred Corpses in the Medical Hall (Please follow!)

I don't know how much time had passed. Sun Qianzhao and Chen Feng had also replaced each other many times, and the White Bone Army finally retreated. At this time, torches had been lit on the city wall.

Qin Jiang and the gang members sat under the city wall, while Long Yuesheng picked up the broken bones of his warhorse, although he couldn't be sure if what he picked up was actually them.

Zhang Lin, who had rotated back to the city wall, opened the city gate and pushed out a cart of food. Qin Jiang and the others rushed over like fierce tigers.

A moment later, Qin Jiang let out a long breath.

This slaughter was basically handled by him, Long Yuesheng, Sun Qianzhao, and Kong Hai as the main force, while the rest were mainly responsible for replacing and assisting.

*Step, step, step! * A sound of horse hooves came from the city. Meng An rode a fast horse and rushed out, directly flipping off the horse.

"Boss, the other three city gates have been deployed. Except for our side, which had a large number of white bone skeletons, the other three sides only had a small amount of White Bone Army attacking."

Long Yuesheng frowned slightly upon hearing this. *Is it such a coincidence? *

Suddenly, a thunderous realization flashed in his mind, and he looked fiercely at Qin Jiang, "Brother Qin, can you go deep into the weird mist with me? I might know the source of this White Bone Army."

Qin Jiang raised an eyebrow, "Let's go."

After speaking, he looked at the Red Tiger Gang members, "Alright, don't stay here, all go back to the city wall."

After everyone entered the city and closed the city gate, he looked at Long Yuesheng, "Where are we going?"

Long Yuesheng nodded, "Follow me, it shouldn't be far."

The two walked into the weird mist. With their eyesight, even with the weird mist blocking, they could still see everything within a ten-meter radius, so they didn't need to worry about sneak attacks from white bone skeletons.

Moreover, if needed, they could explode their internal energy to briefly drive away the surrounding weird mist.

After walking for a while, Long Yuesheng raised his hand slightly, signaling to stop.

Then he exhaled fiercely, and the internal energy in his body dissipated, driving away the weird mist within a hundred meters, revealing a scene that shocked both of them.

Only to see that in front of the two was a mass grave, with dense white bone skeletons crawling out from the pit.

*'This is the place where refugees were buried before!'* Qin Jiang's pupils contracted.

Long Yuesheng felt his heart stop. His expression changed suddenly. *Could it be that these white bone skeletons were all transformed after the refugees died?! *

He vaguely remembered that the measure of burning the refugees was a decision he and a group of people from the County Government Office had made after discussion.

It seemed he was the one who took the lead?

His heart became panicked, and he had a feeling of being plotted against.

"Go!"

He shouted loudly, the Blood Flame Golden Spear in his hand dancing. At this time, the White Bone Army had already surrounded them.

Qin Jiang threw a punch, defeating a patch of the White Bone Army, and his figure retreated.

Before long, firelight illuminated the field of vision ahead. The two had left the range of the weird mist, and those White Bone Army didn't know why they didn't chase them.

These white bone weirdnesses seemed somewhat unusual, attacking the city during the day and retreating at night.

Returning to the city wall, Qin Jiang's mood was somewhat irritable. One was that he didn't know how long this weird mist would last, and the other was worry about the Eye-Weird that hadn't appeared yet but was very likely to appear.

Long Yuesheng saw his worry and smiled slightly, "No need to worry. Although I was forced back, I have already sent a request for help to the County City."

Qin Jiang raised his head upon hearing this, "Are you sure it will be received?"

As his voice fell, not only him, but the rest of the gang members also looked over.

Long Yuesheng pondered for a moment, "If there are no reinforcements within five days, it probably wasn't received. However, with the scale of this Weird Domain, even if the request for help wasn't received, the County City would discover it.

At most, within ten days, someone will come."

With the power of the Copper Bell Sect in the County City, solving a Weird Domain was not a difficult task.

What he wanted to ask for when he returned to the County City this time was actually a True Disciple of the Copper Bell Sect.

A real Secret Martial Artist, solving a Weird Domain that hadn't fully formed, was nothing difficult.

But now it seemed that some accidents had occurred... Qin Jiang nodded slightly without saying anything. Compared to rescue, he still believed more in his own fists.

That night, Song Mansion.

*Boom—! * With a violent sound, Qin Jiang kicked open the Song Mansion gate and walked straight in.

"Who are you?! How dare you break into the Song Mansion! Do you know that our Master is the County Magistrate!"

A steward-like night watchman walked out and pointed at Qin Jiang to shout.

Ever since his master became the County Magistrate, no one had ever dared to look down on the Song family like this!

The next moment, his body flew backward, and even though he had fainted, blood continued to gush from his mouth and nose.

Surging blood-red fiendish energy flowed out, spreading across the courtyard and into the backyard.

"*Cough, cough, cough*, so it's Head of Hall Qin. I don't know why Head of Hall Qin broke into my Song Mansion at night? You don't take the law seriously at all, do you?"

Song Xiaoan walked out from the backyard, wearing white pajamas, his face showing a hint of anger.

Even now, he still didn't believe that Qin Jiang dared to take action against him so blatantly.

Moreover, he wasn't a pushover either. If they really fought, he might not necessarily lose! "I ask you, what exactly is going on with the female ghost in the backyard of Chaofeng Tower?" Qin Jiang asked.

Song Xiaoan's expression changed slightly upon hearing this, but he adjusted immediately and laughed, "You mean that cheap woman? She claimed to be a top courtesan, but she was no longer a virgin. How could my Song family's reputation be tarnished by her? Naturally, she deserved to die! Speaking of which, I, the Master, was still kind-hearted; I sent her back before having her hanged."

Qin Jiang nodded, "So that's how it is. Then my sister? Where is she?" "Your sister? Who is your sister?" Song Xiaoan looked puzzled.

Qin Jiang's eyes narrowed slightly, "Qin Hong."

Song Xiaoan looked enlightened, "So it's her. I don't know about that. You also know that with my status as County Magistrate, it's very difficult for me to see your sister."

Qin Jiang shook his head, "It seems you are prepared to die."

Song Xiaoan's expression changed, "Head of Hall Qin, what are you doing?! This official is a court official! Do you want to rebel—"

Before he could finish, a shoe sole appeared before his eyes.

The speed was so fast that he couldn't make any dodging movement at all!

*Boom—! * Song Xiaoan was kicked into the backyard by Qin Jiang, directly smashing a deep pit in the ground.

The next second, Qin Jiang transformed into a four-meter giant and rushed over, scooping up Song Xiaoan and smashing him repeatedly, each time making the ground tremble.

"Will you say it or not? If you don't, then die for me!"

The violent sound made all the family members in the backyard curl up in the rooms, shivering, none daring to show their heads for fear of having their heads twisted off by Qin Jiang.

"Golden! Golden Jade Pavilion!"

With more and more deep pits, Song Xiaoan finally couldn't bear the pain and shouted loudly.

Qin Jiang stopped immediately, threw Song Xiaoan to the ground, and incidentally used fiendish energy to shake off the bloodstains on his hands.

Song Xiaoan climbed up and sat on the ground, looking at Qin Jiang with horror. He didn't doubt for a second that if he hadn't said it just now, he would be a dead man by now! *He really dares! He really dares to kill me! * "Tell me, Golden Jade Pavilion."

Qin Jiang said. This should be the second time he had heard this name.

Song Xiaoan wiped the blood from his face with his sleeve, took several deep breaths before speaking, "Regarding the Golden Jade Pavilion, this County Magistrate... I only know a little. They seem to be working for the Huai Kingdom and are very mysterious."

"What does this have to do with my sister?" Qin Jiang said, cold light appearing in his eyes. Song Xiaoan's body trembled, "They... that day they found me and said that as long as I helped kidnap Qin Hong, they could ensure the Song Mansion would be safe during this Weirdness Tide."

"Huai Kingdom? Golden Jade Pavilion."

Fierce light flashed in Qin Jiang's eyes. First they wanted to kill him, then they kidnapped his sister—it was truly bullying him too much.

He closed his eyes slightly and took a deep breath, "County Lieutenant Long, you heard it all."

Long Yuesheng walked out from the shadows, holding the Blood Flame Golden Spear, and without any nonsense, directly stabbed into Song Xiaoan's head.

"Actually daring to betray the country, you deserve to die!"

He looked at Qin Jiang, his heart shocked by Qin Jiang's strength. There weren't many Grandmaster-level experts he had seen who could compare to Qin Jiang.

"Don't worry, I've heard of the Golden Jade Pavilion. I will help you investigate."

Qin Jiang nodded slightly, "Thank you, County Lieutenant Long."

"Hey, you're too polite. Just call me Brother Long from now on!"

Half a month later, Anxin Villa.

Inside the room, Qin Jiang looked at the antiques and old items in front of him, feeling somewhat impatient.

It had been half a month now. Not only were there no reinforcements, but the White Bone Army had attacked the city every two or three days during this time, and the gang members had suffered heavy casualties, with hundreds of brothers already lost.

If this continued, within ten days, Black Mountain City would definitely be broken!

Looking at the last batch of antiques and old items in front of him, this was what he had mobilized his forces to scavenge in the name of the Red Tiger Gang and the County Lieutenant.

It could be said that at this time in Black Mountain City, there really were no more antiques and old items, unless they were some unknown secret family heirlooms.

His palm touched them gently, and a moment later, the potential points were absorbed.

【Potential Points: 483.6】

Looking at the value, which was still a bit short of five hundred, his eyelids couldn't stop twitching.

*Twenty short! Still twenty short?! How is it still twenty short?! * The irritability accumulated over many days finally made him unable to help grabbing an antique vase and smashing it fiercely.

*Clang! *

The vase hit the ground but didn't break; it was caught by Meng An who had just entered.

"Boss!"

Qin Jiang looked at Meng An irritably, "What's wrong? Didn't I say don't bother me unless it's something major?"

"Boss, didn't you arrange for me to take the Liu couple, Old Master Wang, and Physician Baiyun to the Inner City?" Meng An said.

Qin Jiang frowned, his gaze turning cold, "What's wrong? Was there someone blocking you?"

Meng An shrank his head, his eyes dodging, "No... no, it's just Physician Baiyun... Physician Baiyun is not there, and..."

"And what! Just say it!" Qin Jiang said impatiently.

"The medical hall was burned down! Only two charred corpses were found at the scene..."

*Boom—! * Qin Jiang's figure disappeared from the room, rushing out like a gale.
