Star Trace Gate

The Funan County mentioned by Gang Leader Qin was not the territory of Qianli Green Camp. To be honest, Ren Ye decided to go and track down Song Xing's whereabouts, which would definitely be risky.

However, this was also an unavoidable choice. There were currently two clues to the plague incident, one was the Immortal Villa, and the other was this Song Xing. But the former was too complicated, and it seemed to be the base camp where Master Guanfeng was brewing his conspiracy. Going there rashly would be tantamount to seeking death. In addition, Gang Leader Qin said that Song Xing went to Funan to take action against Qingliang Mansion, which also aroused Ren Ye's curiosity.

Funan, a place that has nothing to do with Qingliang Prefecture, what can Song Xing do there?

Ren also decided to rush there overnight to see if he could find some clues.

However, everyone still needs to make some preparations before going back.

Yan Bo sent a message to the headquarters and called in a few bluebirds to be used as foot soldiers. At the same time, he also used a bald eagle to send a message to the Green Camp heroes in nearby Funan County, asking them to prepare for support.

At the beginning of the midnight hour, Qinglinniao arrived at the horse-racing gang, and then Ren Ye, Aifei, Lao Liu, Xu Bangzi, Yan Bo, as well as Yao Chi, Foxy, and several other masters set out together for Funan County.

The bluebird spread its wings and flew into the sky. Lao Liu sat on the bird's back, holding the reins tightly, and exclaimed: "Damn, this is my first time riding in an open-top plane since I was a child. It's so exciting."

"Amazing, really amazing." Xu Bangzi was also amazed. He felt that he had gained a lot of knowledge by hanging out with King Huai.

As the two of them looked around, Ren took the initiative to ask Yan Bo for information.

"Brother Yan, we have many eyes and ears in the Thousand Miles Green Camp. Have you ever heard of this Young Master Guanfeng before?" Ren Ye asked softly.

Yan Bo recalled carefully: "I have heard some scattered intelligence, but it should have nothing to do with your Qingliang Mansion. About half a year ago, a general on the border made unusual moves, and the court ordered our headquarters to secretly investigate. Unexpectedly, just when things had just begun to make some progress, the general was killed. The heir in charge of the matter at the time found that the matter might be related to Master Guanfeng, but there was no substantial evidence. And once the border general died, the clue was cut off, and the case became a headless case."

Ren also frowned, holding the rope with both hands, and asked in confusion: "Was he murdered to silence him? Brother Yan, can you tell me if there is any unusual movement by this border general?"

"Smuggling banned items privately." Yan Bo looked at him and replied softly, "There are many rare and exotic animals in my southern border, many of which are huge and intelligent. They can also play a great role in war, such as exploring intelligence and terrain. And these kinds of exotic animals are prohibited from circulation by the court, and no one can buy or sell them. And this border general is privately transporting and selling this kind of goods, so the court attaches great importance to it, so I was ordered to investigate by Qianli Green Camp."

When Lao Liu heard this, he added very smoothly: "Military drone?!"

"?" Yan Bo looked confused.

"It's okay, ignore him." Ren Ye replied, frowning and saying, "If that's the case, then Master Guanfeng's power has already infiltrated the army."

"No, at most they are connected because of interests." Yan Bo shook his head: "Our southern Xinjiang army is composed of various tribes, and its main members are all clan members. They are very united and it is difficult for others to completely bribe or instruct them. Therefore, we judge that this border general was blinded by greed and cooperated with Master Guanfeng. And after this person died, his tribe was also investigating the matter and wanted to find Master Guanfeng for revenge."

"Oh, that's right." Ren nodded slowly. "However, the fact that the court ordered Qianli Green Camp to investigate this matter also fully demonstrates the trust that the Lich King has in the headquarters."

"Haha." Yan Bo smiled: "It's not trust, really. The four characters of Qianli Green Camp are too ostentatious. The current emperor is annoyed by us, but he has to use it."

Ren Ye thought about it and said, "That's right."

The two of them were silent for a while, and Ren Ye looked up again: "Brother Yan, tell me more about Bulao Mountain."

"Bulao Mountain, Bulao Villa..." Yan Bo said softly in the cold wind, "This name is both familiar and unfamiliar."

"Why do you say that?"

"Back then, the Daqian Dynasty launched the Pingnan Campaign, which ended with more than one million casualties and both sides were overwhelmed." Yan Bo narrated softly: "The dog emperor of Daqian found that he could not pacify the southern border, so he took the initiative to withdraw his troops. Our Lich Kingdom was finally able to recuperate, and the flames of war on the border were extinguished."

"It was probably the third year after the Pingnan Campaign ended. The witch master of the White Python Tribe led his troops back from the border and stationed troops around the Bulao Mountain. At that time, there were rumors in the court that the witch master of the White Python Tribe had a serious illness due to years of fighting, so he returned to the Bulao Mountain to recuperate. For this reason, the current emperor came here in person to visit him. But things did not go as planned. The great witch master passed away the year after he moved into the Bulao Mountain."

"When His Majesty heard the tragic news, he wrote down in grief: Heaven is blind and cut off one of my arms, leaving me immortal to remember the White Python." Yan Bo sighed: "Since then, Bulao Mountain has become a forbidden area in southern Xinjiang, and civilians are not allowed to enter. Moreover, on the anniversary of the death of the White Python witch master, many villagers spontaneously go to Bulao Mountain to pay homage."

Ren was also stunned for a moment, and immediately asked: "Is this White Python Witch Master the one who killed the sworn brother of General Pan in Gepao Township?"

"That's right." Yan Bo nodded.

"Isn't the king very dissatisfied with him?" Ren Ye asked curiously, "But I heard you say this..."

"In military operations, victory and defeat are unpredictable." Yan Bo interrupted and replied, "It is understandable that His Majesty was angry after losing the battle. Moreover, at that time, the old King Huai had already led his army to the outskirts of Gepao Township, which was equivalent to entering the heart of Southern Xinjiang. It was impossible for His Majesty not to be anxious. In this case, it was normal for His Majesty to curse. But in fact, the White Python Tribe and the Sky Dragon Tribe are both brave and powerful armies in Southern Xinjiang, and the two witch masters have been playmates with the current emperor since childhood, and they have a very close relationship. These two founding fathers often spoke nonsense to His Majesty in the court... and when they were excited, they also said some dirty words."

Ren nodded slowly: "Oh. So, if we put it this way, the death of the witch master of the White Python tribe is equivalent to the loss of a pillar general in Southern Xinjiang?"

"Yes."

Yan Bo replied, "So, I just heard that the plague incident in Qingliang Prefecture was related to the Bulao Villa, and I was also very shocked. It was once the place where the witch leader of the White Python tribe recuperated, and it has been abandoned for a long time. If that Master Guanfeng really planned here, it would be considered a dark move under the lamp."

Ren also blinked his eyes: "Brother Yan, I want to ask, what level of secret realm is this Bulao Mountain?"

"Level three." Yan Bo replied.

"Oh!"

Upon hearing this, Ren Ye's face turned serious, and he thought to himself that if it was a third-level place, there would definitely be many unknown dangers. If he went there rashly, he would most likely get killed.

However, he took into consideration that the Bu Lao Mountain was a place forbidden to enter by the ruler of Southern Xinjiang. If he reported the matter of Master Guan Feng to the imperial court through the mouth of Qianli Green Camp, could he not reap the benefits?

If the imperial court gets angry and conducts a thorough investigation on Bulao Mountain, then he won't have to do it himself.

But there is still a hidden danger, that is, can the emperor be trusted? What if the emperor finds Master Guanfeng, kills him again, and takes the antidote for the plague but doesn't give it to him, and just chokes him every day, that would be very uncomfortable.

Those who play politics are very dirty, it is not impossible!

Qingliang Prefecture does not belong to the Southern Xinjiang forces, so finding a way to control you is a normal political tactic.

Ren also sat on the bird's back and began to use his brain to sort out the information, looking for a solution to the problem.

The most urgent thing is to not think about the matter of Bulao Mountain for now, but to see if we can find Song Xing.

……

At the end of the Yin hour, the group arrived at Funan County, 600 miles away.

The blue bird "landed" outside the county. Not long after Ren Ye and others gathered, they saw two men in strong suits walking over.

One of them stepped forward quickly, clasped his fists and said to Yan Bo: "I am a horseman from the Xiushui Military Camp. After receiving the order from the upper level, I came to Funan to respond. I meet Master Yan."

"No need to be polite." Yan Bo waved his hand and asked softly, "We are here to find a man named Song Xing. He may be proficient in the art of driving corpses...!"

"Reporting to Mr. Yan, I have learned the news about this person." Unexpectedly, before Yan Bo finished speaking, the man took the initiative to respond.

Ren was also shocked: "News so soon?"

"Yes, but we didn't investigate this matter. Song Xing revealed his tracks himself." The man replied softly, "An hour and a half ago, a battle between supernatural powers occurred in Funan County."

"?!"

Everyone was confused.

The man looked at Yan Bo and continued, "After I received the order from the higher-ups, I immediately rushed here with my fellow brothers. As soon as we entered Funan County, we saw some supernatural beings fighting. We followed them for a while but didn't catch up with them. After returning and asking around, we found out that one of the supernatural beings who participated in the fight was Song Xing."

"How can you be sure it's Song Xing?"

"Because someone here knows him." The man replied.

"Where is the place for the fight?" Yan Bo asked.

"In an inn called Tingyuexuan." The man frowned and replied, "Officials from Funan County have already arrived and sealed off the place."

"Take us there quickly." Yan Bo ordered immediately.

"Yes, let's go!"

After Ren Ye urged, he immediately used the disguise talisman with his beloved concubine, Lao Liu and others to change his appearance again.

……

In less than two quarters of an hour, everyone arrived at the central long street of Funan County.

Led by the man, the group arrived at the door of an inn that had been beaten to pieces.

This place was obviously affected by the fight between people with supernatural powers. It seemed that a large part of the surrounding area had collapsed, and a large number of innocent people were implicated and died tragically in the ruins.

The government officials have surrounded the place, and many officers are investigating inside.

Ren Ye and others hurried over and stepped forward.

"Forbidden!"

Government soldiers stopped them with guns.

When Yan Bo was about to speak, Ren Ye looked up and suddenly saw a white horse next to the ruins, being led by soldiers and kicking its head in resistance.

In the dark night, the white horse was very eye-catching. Ren Ye only took a glance at it and said in shock: "Fuck, isn't that an idiot... an idiot horse?!"
