Dragon's Origin

Chapter 491: The Hidden Strength of Baoqing Yutang (Part 2)

Under what circumstances would a business world that has been operating for hundreds of years abandon all of its existing foundations, with everyone and all their supplies disappearing?

If it were Wang Sheng himself, under what circumstances would he do this? Wang Sheng pondered for a while and suddenly realized that he really didn't care. In this strange world, Wang Sheng felt that he could abandon everything in front of him at any time, as long as what he wanted to do was worthwhile!

So, what made everyone at Baoqing Yutang feel it was worthwhile? If it was just the idea of ​​Old Master Zhu alone, I'm afraid the extremely shrewd shopkeepers of Baoqing Yutang would never abandon everything and follow the old master without hesitation. It could only be under circumstances of huge profits, right?

“Your Grace, the people from Baoqing Yutang seem to have disappeared suddenly after reaching a certain place.” The person in charge of tracking quickly sent back the message.

Disappeared suddenly? This seems a bit magical, doesn't it? No matter how they go, there will always be traces left. At most, it's just difficult to track. Could they just disappear into thin air?

“Let’s go, go take a look!” Wang Sheng didn’t sit and wait for news, deciding to go to the scene himself.

When a group of people marched out of the city, Wang Sheng met Eunuch Shen at the city gate. Eunuch Shen brought a group of royal experts, seemingly waiting specifically for Wang Sheng. Wang Sheng greeted him and went straight to the last tracked location with Eunuch Shen.

Now Wang Sheng is no longer the lone commander he was when he first came to this world, nor is he the bereaved dog chased to the point of having no way to go to heaven or earth. Whenever he goes out, there are at least dozens of guards following him, surrounding and supporting him, making him exceptionally majestic.

Sometimes it's not that Wang Sheng is lazy. Just like tracking the whereabouts of the Baoqing Yutang people, Wang Sheng originally wanted to go himself, but he was immediately dissuaded by several people. If the Duke of Changsheng had to personally handle such trivial matters, it would be too speechless. As a duke, he should stay in the Wang residence to oversee things, sit tight, issue an order, and then wait for the results.

This is the change in the way of doing things after a change in status and position. Even Wang Sheng cannot avoid being influenced.

They spurred their horses and rushed to the location. It took a whole day from departure to arrival. If you calculate the traveling speed of those Baoqing Yutang shopkeepers with not very high cultivation levels, and then calculate the time they took to slaughter a village to vent their anger, the collective disappearance of the Baoqing Yutang people should have been early yesterday morning, or even at dawn.

Tracking and investigation, along with the compilation of information from all parties, took a full day. When Wang Sheng arrived here, it was already late afternoon, close to dusk, on the second day.

Wang Sheng trusted these tracking experts from the Duke's Mansion very much. A large part of them were from the Old Monarch Temple, experienced and unlikely to make wrong judgments. If they said that the people from Baoqing Yutang disappeared into thin air, then there must be no traces of their movement.

As soon as they arrived at the scene, Eunuch Shen asked Wang Sheng for instructions. After receiving Wang Sheng's permission, he waved his hand, and at least a dozen royal tracking experts carefully inspected the surrounding area.

The royal people checked very carefully, almost inch by inch, without letting go of any suspicious signs. Seeing this situation, the faces of the few people from the Duke's Mansion who had been waiting here were not very good.

Wang Sheng waved his hand at everyone, signaling them not to mind, and then asked the leader to report the detailed situation.

The tracking started from the slaughtered village. To be honest, Baoqing Yutang was such a large group, not only bringing people but also things. Even if the things were carried in storage rings, not everyone was an expert who could carefully hide their movements. There would always be some obvious traces left behind.

They could still find traces of their rest all the way to this place. But after that, there was absolutely no trace of any further action. But everyone just disappeared silently, which made the trackers puzzled.

After understanding the initial situation, Wang Sheng did not search for clues all over the world like the royal trackers, but stood on the spot and took a deep breath.

The sense of smell enhanced by the Suanni transformation was used to the limit by Wang Sheng. All kinds of extremely subtle smells poured into Wang Sheng's nostrils like a tide.

Wherever his eyes reached, all kinds of smells began to correspond to the surrounding environment one by one, his own people, royal experts, mounts, surrounding trees, stones, grass, charred firewood, broken grass stems, etc., without any omissions.

Even the most powerful police dog on Earth, standing here, would probably have to admit defeat to Wang Sheng's terrifying sense of smell.

After a day and a half, many smells had dissipated. Wang Sheng couldn't track down the whereabouts of the Baoqing Yutang people, but there were still some smells that shouldn't belong here, allowing Wang Sheng to quickly find the entity by following the smell.

The royal people had quickly checked it again, and when reporting to Eunuch Shen, they, like the people from the Duke's Mansion, found nothing. They had no idea where the Baoqing Yutang people had gone.

This was not near a river, so it was impossible to leave by boat. In the open plains, how could people suddenly disappear here?

“Did they grow wings and fly away?” Eunuch Shen asked unhappily. Of course, he was questioning those royal tracking experts.

It was a plain area, not a place with height differences. Even Wang Sheng's hang glider couldn't fly away. Hot air balloons were possible, but did anyone in this world know how to use hot air balloons?

Wang Sheng suddenly squatted down on the spot, pointing a finger at the ground. This action made everyone look puzzled. What was he doing?

Eunuch Shen's gaze instantly sharpened, staring at the place where Wang Sheng's finger was pointing, his ears twitching a few times before frowning and looking at Wang Sheng's finger.

The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ say ⊥ is ⊥ at ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥⊥ book ⊥⊥ bar ⊥⊥ first ⊥ hair!

At some point, two very ordinary and inconspicuous little ants crawled onto Wang Sheng's finger. The ants were also biting two extremely small things in their mouths. After their antennae touched Wang Sheng's finger a few times, they let go and quickly crawled away.

Wang Sheng stood up, with two tiny, almost invisible fine fluff threads on his index finger. After carefully observing them, Wang Sheng stretched his finger towards Eunuch Shen, who had been waiting eagerly.

Seeing the things on Wang Sheng's finger, Eunuch Shen frowned again: "Your Grace, what is this?"

“Fine fluff from the feathers of some large bird.” Wang Sheng quickly answered Eunuch Shen's question, and then added: “They probably really grew wings and flew away.”
