Join the Great Wall Guard

Chapter 181 Mysterious Footprints

"Lu Yu, do you feel that the reaction of the Lord of Yucheng and the generals stationed here is a bit strange?"

Beside the emerald-like Jade Spring, Hua Mulan and Lu Yu walked side by side.

"It seems that when they mentioned the demon seed, it was a bit unnatural."

Lu Yu naturally saw something was wrong, especially the city lord of Yucheng, who obviously hesitated when he mentioned the demon seed.

This naturally shows that he is hiding something.

"Could it be that there is any relationship between the city lord of Yucheng and the demon species? No, that's impossible."

I just had some thoughts in my heart, but they were quickly extinguished by Hua Mulan.

The Lord of Yucheng has always been supportive of the Great Wall, and he is a person who yearns for peace in the desert.

Moreover, the prosperity of the desert is also inseparable from his policy of opening Yucheng.

If there was any relationship between him and the demon species, then the people and civilization of Yucheng would have been ruined long ago.

However, the answer and hesitation of the city lord of Yucheng made people feel puzzled.

"Perhaps, there is some reason behind this."

After thinking about it for a while, Lu Yu still couldn't think of any clues, so he had no choice but to say so.

"Well, I hope this reason is not bad news."

Hua Mulan shook her head helplessly. Originally, they went to Yucheng to investigate the presence of monsters, but now they were "persuaded by good words" by the city lord of Yucheng and turned into a one-day tour of Yucheng.

"But, Mulan."

Lu Yu looked at the trickling jade spring, feeling relieved in his heart, and said with a relaxed eyebrow, "The scenery of this jade city is really good. Why don't you just enjoy it here, how about it?"

The last date was still on Qixi Festival, but at that time the two hadn't revealed their feelings for each other.

Now, in Yucheng, whether it is the jade spring with flowing water like a zither in front of you, or the huge jade stones shining on the square, they are all beautiful scenery, which makes people feel comfortable.

The pulsating fluorescent light, like a lively elf, soars in the air, mobilizing a fantastic atmosphere, making people feel like they are in a fairyland.

"Enjoy how we have time to enjoy. If I don't investigate this matter clearly, I won't do other things."

Turning her head stubbornly to one side, Hua Mulan said pretending to be stern.

"Then, wait a while and investigate again?"

""

Thanks to the prosperous jade trade, the residents of Yucheng are warm and hospitable. They love brilliant colors and carve the city's totem outside the walls of their residences.In order to resist the long exposure to the sun, people built blackout curtains and enjoyed the beauty in the shade.

Jade Square is a place full of vitality. Huge stone pillars guard the emerald green jade in the center, which symbolizes infinite beauty.

Of course, Yucheng naturally not only has the scenery of jade square, but also has such strange and beautiful places as jade cliffs and underground jade mines.

Yushi Cliff, from here you can overlook the magnificent scenery of the entire Yucheng, and the magnificent Yuquan flows down from the top of this mountain.Moreover, when observing the Yuquan at close range, the clothes will be wetted by the splashed water drops from time to time, but the water droplets from the Yuquan are extraordinarily delicate and smooth, as if they are not stained with a trace of dirt, and even exude A strange and incomparable fragrance, which makes people feel refreshing after smelling it.

According to the legend told by the local people, Yuquan contains mysterious power, and life was once conceived in it.Moreover, the essence from the spring water moistens the soil, allowing the jade to fully absorb nutrients and become more pure and crystal clear.

"The spring water of this Yuquan is truly miraculous. Even just smelling the fragrance, there is a refreshing feeling like being enlightened."

Smelling the fragrance of Yuquan, Hua Mulan couldn't help sighing.

"Then how about some more?"

I could only hear Lu Yu shouting from the side, and immediately, the cool but not cold spring water hit him with a "crash".

"Lu Yu!"

The skirt of his clothes was drenched by the spring water, but the "instigator" was smirking, holding the spring water in his hand, and planned to attack again.

"You wait!"

Naturally, Hua Mulan was not to be outdone, and also took the spring water from the jade spring, and rushed towards Lu Yu.

The crystal clear jade-like water splashes down everywhere, fresh and moving, just like the dewdrops on the little lotus in the morning, making people love and pity.

Accompanied by such a beautiful scenery, while feeling the exuberant vitality, it is the cheerful pursuit of two people.

Before noon, under the leadership of the locals and Yu Linfeng, Lu Yu and Hua Mulan visited the underground jade mine again.

The management of the underground jade mine is very strict, and there are a large number of soldiers guarding it outside. Yu Linfeng even boasted that not even a mosquito could fly in.

Different from the scenery above the ground, there are many mines in the underground jade mines, some of which have been mined, while others are in a mysterious state of dust.

Here, jade crystals are growing luxuriantly, and when they grow into jade, it is a symbol of maturity.

"It's beautiful here."

In the closed and quiet mine, it is filled with gleaming green light, as if there are countless crystals hanging down, it is indeed a unique beauty.

"These Footprints"

Lu Yu was also attracted by the beautiful scenery at first, but when he bent down, he saw many similar footprints on the ground.

However, although they are said to be footprints, their size looks very small, even much smaller than a child's feet.

"General Lu Yu, is there something wrong?"

Seeing that Lu Yu was attracted by the footprints on the ground, Yu Linfeng on the side hurriedly came over and licked his lips, looking a little nervous.

"Is there any other creature in this underground mine?"

This is Lu Yu's speculation, because it is impossible for this trace to be left by human beings.

"How is that possible for other creatures? In this mine, there are all our own people."

The people around Yu Linfeng also nodded frequently, but Lu Yu didn't follow suit.

"Mulan, take a look at these footprints too."

Hua Mulan also came after hearing the news, and carefully observed the footprints on the ground. Hua Mulan also hesitated, and said suspiciously: "These footprints, don't tell you that you walked with your hands."

Moreover, these footprints are not as big as a palm.

"Ahem, didn't I always tell you to clean up those footprints?"

With a dissatisfied expression on Yu Linfeng's face, he bowed to the entourage beside him and whispered in his ear.

"what are you saying?"

Seeing Yu Linfeng's unconvinced expression, Hua Mulan stepped forward and asked.

"It's nothing, nothing. I mean, it's not impossible for these footprints to be left by some small animals."

Yu Linfeng explained with a wry smile.

"But, city lord, didn't you say that even mosquitoes can't get in here?"

Lu Yu asked curiously.
