Red Heart Survey

The joint investigation between Qi and Jing on Jiang Wang's fall into Frostwind Valley has lasted for seven days, involving nine human cities including Yanlao and Tieyan.

It can be said that it is like a comb, combing thousands of miles around carefully.

But the strange real person who used Mei Xuelin to attack and kill Jiang Wang and repel Ji Zhaonan was not able to be picked out.

If a real person in the world deliberately conceals it, it will naturally be difficult to be caught. Every real person has his own legend, and it is not difficult to hide his cultivation.

But no matter in the present world or in the civilization basin, Qi Jing is among the most powerful forces in the current world. These two countries have joined forces to draw up an area, and during the thorough investigation, it can be said that it is almost impossible to hide any doubts.

But after seven days of investigation, there was no result.

From this, of course, a reasonable doubt arises—is there really a strange real person?

Could it be someone guarding the demon world who did it secretly?

There are a total of three real people in the present world who are within the scope of the Nine Cities. They are Pei Xinghe, commander of Jingguo's real disaster-killing people, Chu country's general Han Que, and Muguo's clan real person He Lianyuyi.

Among these real people, Pei Xinghe has a great reputation, needless to say.

Han Que was the right-wing commander of the Chu State in the Battle of the River Valley. It was the right wing under his command that collapsed and turned against the central army, which caused Zuo Guanglie's surprise attack on Fengyang Mountain to lose its strategic value, thus making the whole war inevitable. The tragic ending of redemption. He escaped with his life in the war by chance. After the defeat, he cut off all his titles, entered the Gate of Ten Thousand Monsters, and vowed to redeem his sins with his whole life.

He has a son named Han Li, who is good friends with Xiang Bei. Jiang Wang once met him at Huangliang Terrace in Chu State.

And Helian Yuyi is another true person in the Mu Kingdom's clan, the backbone of the Damu royal family, the direct cousin of the Damu Empress, and Helian Yunyun's aunt.

During the continuation of the battle in Frostwind Valley, both Han Que and Helian Yuyi appeared on the battlefields they were in charge of, and there was absolutely no time to go to Frostwind Valley to stir up wind and rain.

Although Pei Xinghe wasn't on the battlefield, he was meeting with Qin's envoy at that time - Qin people certainly had no obligation to cover up for Jing Guo. Sincerity in avoiding strategic misjudgments.

On the Qin side, Gan Xie, the real person in charge of Qin's monster world battlefield, also publicly stated that sending Qin's envoys to Jingguo City was a defense issue to communicate with the borders of the jurisdiction.

The strange real person was not found, and all the real people on the surface had evidence to clear the suspicion.

So after this investigation, everything is still stagnant.

As Xiuyuan expected beforehand, the mysterious mastermind behind the scenes may have already erased all traces and fled...

Gaoling City.

As one of Jingguo's big cities in the northern part of the Civilization Basin, Gaoling City is much more majestic than Tieyan City. The straight-line distance between the two is about 800 miles, which can be regarded as mutual horns.

"Jing Zong." Chu Zicheng, who was slightly drunk in a wine shop, said curiously: "The Marquis Wu'an of the Qi State who had an accident recently, I heard that he was originally from your Zhuang State?"

Chu Zicheng, who was born in the Kingdom of Ji, has no supernatural powers in the Second House, and it is very difficult to obtain supernatural powers in the foreseeable future. Insufficient than the top, more than the bottom.

His ostensible identity is that of a talent from a commoner family in the Ji Kingdom. With his own struggle, he obtained extraordinary opportunities and cultivated step by step to the realm of the inner palace. Now serving in Gaoling City, tying his head to his trouser belt, earning some cultivation resources - this is also the normal state of monks in many small countries in the central region, Ji Guo itself has no chance to give him.

But his actual identity is a member of Jing Guojing Shitai. He was absorbed at a very young age, and secretly engaged in intelligence affairs as a Ji Guo practitioner.

And at the moment, Qiao Jingzong, who was sitting opposite him and drinking with him, was a monk from the inner court of Zhuang Kingdom, and ranked seventh among the interesting Xin'an eight handsome men. At the beginning of this year, after coming to the Gate of Ten Thousand Monsters through the relationship of the Dao Kingdom, he joined Gaoling City to serve.

The current state of Zhuang is of course much stronger than that of Ji. But it is far from enough to make a living behind the Gate of Ten Thousand Monsters on his own, and he still has to rely on Jing Guo's banner.

The two of them had met on the battlefield before, and they were considered acquainted, but they hadn't become close friends. But friends, after drinking and chatting a few times, they became friends.

Friend is not an important word these days. Often a friend knows how to hurt you better.

After a big battle, he could still have his hair all bearded, so it was only logical for him to invite Qiao Jingzong to have a drink. When the wine is hot, it is natural to talk about the latest hot topics.

Qiao Jingzong was originally from the country of Qiao. Because he could not see a way out in his own country, he traveled far to other countries and joined Mingzhu. Sure enough, it has been reused in Zhuang country, and even improved its cultivation base, opened the inner palace, and ranked in Xin'an Bajunli, ranking above Jiang Liuyue, who was born and raised in Zhuang country.

At this moment, he just looked at Chu Zicheng with a drunken eye around his wine glass: "What do you have to say, that person?"

Chu Zicheng touched him with a cup: "In the world of heaven, life and death are commonplace. People like us, who will die in the battlefield? Who cares? Tianjiao, who has always had accidents in heaven, also There are quite a few of them. Like the one from Jingguo... Only this Marquis of Wu'an had an accident in Frostwind Valley and made such a big commotion, I couldn't hide my curiosity... let's chat casually."

Qiao Jingzong took a small sip and smiled: "I haven't been to Zhuang Country for a long time. When I went, he was gone. How can I know?"

"It's just a casual chat. It doesn't have to be about what you see or understand." Chu Zicheng smiled and said, "What others say is fine. For example, what do the people of Zhuang Guo think of him?"

"How else can you see it?" Qiao Jingzong said, "Don't dare to speak out if you dare to be angry."

"Oh?" Chu Zicheng asked, "How do you say that?"

Qiao Jingzong hesitated to speak, shrinking his neck vigilantly: "Don't dare to talk nonsense, the people of Qi are very fierce now... that's all, let's not talk about it."

"Brother, this has aroused my curiosity." Chu Zicheng looked around and lowered his voice: "Talk to me quickly! Is there anyone in the world who is convicted of gossip? Take it easy, brother Qiao said today. Your mouth enters my ears, and no third person will know."

Qiao Jingzong refused again.

Chu Zicheng persuaded again.

Probably because he drank too much, Qiao Jingzong finally snorted: "Actually, there is nothing to say, it is the matter of Zhuangguo Fenglin City... You should have heard of it? His letter is very famous. Many people in Zhuangguo think that He is the biggest beneficiary of the Fenglin city area. The killing of Zhang Linchuan a while ago caused a huge disturbance, and the uprooting of the Wusheng Sect was just to silence the rumors. Zhang Linchuan, like him, is also the People from Lincheng come from the three major local surnames. What is the predecessor of the Wusheng Sect? Isn’t it still the Tao of Bones!”

"This...is so!"

Of course Chu Zicheng knew about these cliché topics that the senior officials of Zhuangguo talked about. But still looked shocked.

Then he said: "Then he had an accident this time, you should all be very happy?"

"Hey, what should I say?" Qiao Jingzong said: "I have only been in Zhuangguo for two years, and to be honest, I don't have any feelings for that big man. I'm not sure if he is the culprit in Fenglin City .So I can't say whether I'm happy or not. But maybe my colleagues...are happy?"

"That's true, he has nothing to do with you..." Chu Zicheng echoed drunkenly, poured him a drink, and suddenly thought of something: "By the way, I went to drink with you at the end of last month. Why aren't you here? Make me go for nothing!"

Although Gaoling City is a big city located in the demon world, there are also many Yiying restaurants and gambling houses, so that the fighters who are fighting for life and death have a place to relieve their emotions. During the war, the soldiers were naturally in the barracks, and they followed military orders when they walked, walked, sat, and lay down. There are also dormitories in the city for those who come out of rotation. And with Qiao Jingzong's cultivation level, he could already live in a single room in Gaoling City, and his time outside of the battle was also extremely free.

Qiao Jingzong frowned heavily, "The end of last month? When?"

Chu Zicheng was half-drunk, and said vaguely: "I don't remember clearly... the twenty-eighth of Dongyue? Twenty-nine?"

"Are you drinking too much?" Qiao Jingzong pointed at him and laughed, "We were still in the barracks for a few days! Although we are no longer in battle, we must do morning exercises every day, and the curfew is still in place... You ask me to drink What kind of wine?"

The twenty-eighth day of the winter moon this year is a relatively sensitive day, and it was on this day that Marquis Wu An of Qi State fell into Frostwind Valley. The current investigations throughout Zhucheng started from this.

"Look at my memory!" Chu Zicheng patted his forehead: "Forget about it! Then maybe I went to see you in the last few days... But I must have been there, and you are indeed not at home!"

Qiao Jingzong sipped his wine and said with a smile: "Brother Chu also knows that I like to play around with money, and I don't often stay at the dormitory. Next time you look for me, you have to make an agreement in the barracks in advance. Otherwise, it will be empty and you will blame me again. "

Chu Zicheng is a senior intelligence officer of Jingshitai, of course he will not keep staring at a topic to arouse the target's vigilance, so he said with a drunken smile: "Then we can make a deal, the next round of war is over, if we can all live, we will Come here for a drink!"

"Okay!" Qiao Jingzong nodded first, then shook his head: "No, not good, not good!"

He squinted his eyes and said with a wicked smile: "Hey, I almost forgot, the imperial court sent me a letter calling me back! This year's experience is enough, and I probably won't participate in the next round of war."

Chu Zicheng was stunned for a moment, and said: "That's right! With your head on your trouser belt, you can't carry it for too long. A talent like Brother Qiao should be cultivated by Zhuang Tinghaosheng. Come, Brother Qiao, let me toast you. Right to farewell for you!"

"Brother Chu." Qiao Jingzong raised his glass and said sincerely: "When you return to the present world, come to Zhuangguo to find me, and I will treat you to drink authentic Qinghe fine wine and Daishan venison!"

For those who have been fighting in the demon world all year round, this is undoubtedly a very sincere blessing.

Chu Zicheng felt a little sentimental for a moment: "Unconsciously, I have been in the demon world for three years. These three years have been in Gaoling City. I have seen all the high and low buildings in the city. I almost forgot what my hometown looks like!"

Life in Ji Kingdom as a child, secretly accepting Jing Shitai's training assessment, these years in the demon world...sometimes he can't tell who he is.

He cleared up his mood and clinked glasses with Qiao Jingzong: "By virtue of your auspicious words, I will work hard for two more years before returning to the present world. Brother Qiao will definitely be a high-ranking official of the Zhuang Kingdom by then, so don't forget me."

"What are you talking about? We went to the battlefield together, it was a fateful friendship. Who can forget who?" Qiao Jingzong raised his voice and said, "Come on! This time I won't be drunk and I won't return!"

The two talked and laughed, and made a fuss again. After talking some stupid words, looking forward to the future, and drinking for a while, they patted each other's shoulders, and the alcohol dissipated.

What a peaceful day in Gaoling City.

This is how ordinary two human warriors are.

Before the banner of the wine shop was raised, two heroes who had fought against the Yaozu head-on on the battlefield walked on each side and scattered at both ends of the long street.

One walked slowly, and the other staggered.

But after turning his back, Qiao Jingzong's eyes became very cold.

And Chu Zicheng's eyes were frighteningly bright.

...

...

Today is the seventh day of drilling into Shiwanda Mountain.

Jiang Wang gradually felt something was wrong...

The situation in the mountains is getting worse and worse.

From the past few days, among the monster tribes who entered the mountain, there are already many demon soldiers who have formed a system. They swept in groups, cutting down trees, strangling evil beasts, and cleaning up the miasma.

Did something happen in Frostwind Dale? ——Jiang Wang thought belatedly at this time.

It must be mentioned that the language of the Yaozu is too difficult to learn, and its degree of difficulty is no less difficult than that of history.

There are too many ethnic groups and species in the Yaozu, and there are literally thousands of categories. Although they obviously have a unified language, the innate influence brought by their respective species cannot be erased at all.

For example, the little monsters of the Yu tribe generally have very high-pitched voices, and the pig monsters always talk...their strange accents make their language more or less distorted.

Those little demons can communicate by themselves, but for a studious person who learns demon language from scratch, it is too much torture...

Of all the little monsters he met these days, none of them had the same accent!

As a result, he was sensitive and eager to learn Jiang, who had studied hard for so many days, but he still couldn't get started. I can barely understand a few simple phrases.

for example……

"Trash", "Go to hell", "Kill you", "Fuck off".

Learning any language starts with mastering its swearwords - Lord Jiang believes that this can be regarded as a great discovery in linguistics.

However, the language is not clear for the time being, and it does not affect Jiang Wang's judgment on the current situation.

If the little monsters who entered the mountain earlier seemed to be carrying out some mission in a free capacity - he was 90% sure that the targets of these little monsters should be those weird bugs in the mountains.

And these demon soldiers who have recently entered the mountain are obviously cleaning up the environment, eliminating hidden dangers, expelling idle monsters, and collecting war materials-this set of war preparations in a smooth and smooth manner. It couldn't be more ripe.

His sense of war has been alarmed.

Those little monsters who were not soldiers were driven to further mountains and forests. This just shows that in this area that includes Frostwind Valley, there is obviously a war that is about to break out!

And it is definitely not the model of small groups of elites fighting each other in Frostwind Valley earlier.

In the vicinity of the Hundred Thousand Mountains, who else can the Yaozu fight against?

The answer is self-evident.

In other words, the silent period in Frostwind Valley may have ended early due to some accident! It's like it started ahead of schedule under the influence of that mysterious person...

When making this judgment, Jiang Wang felt an unspeakable emotion.

He knew that if a race war broke out in this area, it must have something to do with him.

Was it Qi Jun who came to rescue him?

Is it the will of the Great Qi Emperor?

Or even a big move in the entire civilization basin?

At this moment, he doesn't know the specific situation, and he can't capture and kill which monster soldiers to torture information, because the disappearance of army soldiers is the easiest to detect. Which army, which department, which team, which team is missing which soldier, will be discovered that night at the latest. Afterwards, after a little tracing back to the source, it was very difficult for him to hide it.

At the moment, his injury is far from healed. The treatment these days has only solved some superficial injuries - for a monk who is difficult to get hurt, any wound needs to consume a lot of precious medicine to heal, and the wound medicine he carries with him is Also applies here. And with the injuries he is suffering now, if he wants to recover as soon as possible, he needs to lie down in the imperial hospital and use special techniques and professional medical techniques to deal with it.

There are so many things that don't exist right now.

But he still made a bold decision——

He decided to sneak back to the vicinity of Frostwind Valley, see the situation there with his own eyes, and look for a chance to sneak back to the Civilization Basin!
