The reborn cannon fodder
Chapter 90
In the dark and winding underground corridor, an interrogator hurried out with a stack of confession papers in his hand.
He only felt that the news that he took out from Na Ding Wangxing's mouth this time was extremely important, and he couldn't help fantasizing that after he handed it over, he would definitely be rewarded by Mr. Zhao!
So, he tightened the stack of papers in his arms, and walked even more hastily.
Passing through the iron gate at the end of the corridor and walking back to the ground, his eyes were not used to the light outside for a moment.After squinting his eyes slowly, he walked back to the yard not far away.
"Hey, Master Yu! Why are you here at this time?"
"Commander Fang, I hope the lower officials have something urgent to report to Mr. Zhao, and I hope you can pass it on."
"Oh, you two have collided in this urgent matter! Adjutant Liu just went in just now, and your front and rear feet followed." The guard commander surnamed Fang was not embarrassed, he laughed and joked, and then He replied, "I'm going to send a message, and I'll trouble you to wait for a while."
"Thank you Commander Fang."
Zhao Lanxi in the room was reading an official document sent by the leader of Yuancheng through Xunying.
"So Zuo Ning has already been executed?"
"Exactly." The person standing at the bottom looked respectful, and was about to say something more, but he heard the voice of the commander outside the door.
"Young Master Zhao, the person in charge of the torture interrogation seeks an audience with Sir Yu."
Zhao Lanxi immediately remembered, isn't this person in charge of Ding Wangxing?Thinking about asking something, he quickly responded and invited him into the room.
"Master Yu has some important news?" After the meeting, Zhao Lanxi saw the hidden eagerness on his face, and asked directly about the progress of the torture without any delay.
"Returning to my son, Nading Wangxing explained many forces in southern Xinjiang that he bought for him, including the list of nails placed by Kunyu in the entire Yun Kingdom, all here." After finishing speaking, he first put the stack of papers Part of it was handed over to Zhao Lanxi for him to read, and he stood aside respectfully until he saw that he had read it almost, then continued, "There is one more thing that I think is very important. hiding place."
"Oh?" The official document sent by Nanjiang only mentioned the matter of Zuo Ning's execution, but the content was extremely concise, and he didn't know the specific passage.But come to think of it, since this woman has been dealt with, the next step, Mu Changyun must go into the mountains to look for that "princess". "Do you know where she is?"
Master Yu paused, with a hint of frustration in his voice, and said, "Master Hui, Ding Wangxing himself has never been to southern Xinjiang, so he can't tell the exact location of the village, but he has some more detailed descriptions. Among them The most important one is about the man-eating monster in Naya Village."
"Cannibals? Monsters?" Zhao Lanxi raised her eyebrows, and couldn't help but confirm that this wasn't talking about a fairy tale?
"Yes, Ju Ding Wang Xing said that his subordinates once saw a person in that village with his own eyes. After being thrown somewhere, he suddenly disappeared. A few days later, he saw some mutilated and broken corpses in the same place. "When Master Yu said this, his heart trembled. Cannibalism is not terrible. If you eat it and spit the leftovers back to the original place, it's too disgusting, okay! "It's hard to say exactly why, but it should be an extremely ferocious thing, maybe it was raised by Princess Na Kunyu, I don't know."
"Bring me the paper offering and let me have a look."
"Promise." Master Yu respectfully handed over the rest of the offering paper in his hand, and then seemed to hesitate for a moment, Fang whispered, "My lord, it is said that apart from monsters, there is a holy medicine to bring the dead back to life in that village..."
When Zhao Lanxi heard the words, she didn't say much, but with a smile in her eyes, she said in a gentle voice: "Your Excellency has worked hard on this matter. After Zhao returns to the capital, he will definitely mention this matter to the prince."
Mr. Yu was overjoyed in his heart, but still humble on his face. After bowing to Zhao Lanxi, he left the study room. Before leaving, he did not forget to smile at Adjutant Liu.
On the side, Adjutant Liu saw the person retreating, secretly scolded the old boy for his complacency, and generally held his breath, waiting for Mr. Zhao to continue the conversation just now.
Unexpectedly, he was shocked by the opponent's actions.
After Zhao Lanxi read the confession about the man-eating monster, she was silent for a long time, but finally folded the paper and put it aside.
"Does the young master plan to inform the southern border of this matter?"
"This matter is not urgent. After three days, I will send this news to southern Xinjiang."
"No." Although Adjutant Liu was surprised, he didn't dare to refute. He only slandered secretly. Last night, the news in his hair said that he would set off to search for him today, and he would send the letter to southern Xinjiang in three days. The day lily is cold.The young master looked like he had a very good relationship with that young master Mu, why did he act so dishonestly behind his back?
After Adjutant Liu explained the rest of the matter and left, Zhao Lanxi rubbed her forehead wearily, sighing inwardly.
The incident at the Xingzhi Villa caused the long-suspended martial arts threat theory in the court to pop up immediately. Several officials blatantly clamored for the ban on the use of martial arts, and demanded that the court send troops to quell the martial arts.
The emperor thought that it would be appropriate to let the people in the martial arts fight internally, and although the prince objected, it was not easy to refute.
Now he has suppressed the news for three days, letting the leaders of the largest alliance forces remaining in the martial arts world put themselves in danger, and return to the emperor, which can be regarded as an explanation.
——As for that Princess Kunyu, as long as she finds a place and sends troops to encircle and suppress her, it's not a big deal.
I only hope that Brother Mu can turn the danger into good luck.
Recalling Mu Changsi who was far away in Qiancang, he sighed again in his heart.
Originally, it was my own wishful thinking, but that young lady had no intention of doing it to me. If I knew what he was doing at this time, I'm afraid I would be hated by her even more...
……
Mu Changyun and Liu Qiyan didn't know about the debates about martial arts in the upper echelons.
At this time, the three of them were meeting each other to study the materials that Ding Hui had brought out.The so-called speed is the most important thing, they plan to leave tomorrow, but today they have to thoroughly understand those winding topographical maps.
"Why is the location of this herb so strange?" Mu Sigui was studying the layout of the entire Ya village, and when he saw the location of the strange medicine Nanshuangcao marked in it, he felt something was wrong.
"What?" Mu Changyun was perusing the few traps in the secret passage. Although the number is small, if someone doesn't know the solution and tries to break into it, the consequences will be bloody and violent.
"According to what he said, this Southern Frost Grass should be a sacred object in the village. It must be cultivated by Wu Zhu for many years before it can grow, and its medicinal effect is extremely special. It should be extremely precious. But why is it planted in the Such a remote place?" Mu Sigui spread the drawing flat on the table, although the lines on the paper were a bit rough, the layout of the entire village was drawn very clearly.
The name of Cliff Village is taken from the location of the mountain village, which happens to be on a cliff. Not far behind the village is a cliff, and the road to the village on the other side is not as steep and dangerous as the cliff, but it is also the same. The twists and turns are difficult to climb.Because of this, the entire Ya village is quite closed, and the people in the village can be self-sufficient most of the time, except for occasionally going out of the mountain to exchange some salt cloth, they are almost isolated from the outside world.
And the Southern Frost Grass that Ding Hui asked for was a plant that was regarded as a holy medicine in this village. It was said that only the witch Zhu in Ya Village could feed it.And the most special thing about this grass is that if it is picked during the day, the leaves of the grass will be bright green, which can be a life-saving medicine; but if it is picked after dark, the leaves of the grass will be black, which is really poisonous.
Whether it is a good medicine or a highly poisonous medicine, the efficacy of the medicine is exaggerated by the local people, and countless people believe it.This grass is called Strange Grass, and Ya Village is also called Strange Village.
In this way, there should be countless people coveting this grass, looking for the thief.
However, according to Ding Hui's drawings, Yacun did not protect it in the center, and even the location where it was planted was quite far from the medicine garden where Wu Zhu lived, but closer to the cliff.
"Could it be that this herb is difficult to pick? Otherwise, why are you so unguarded against thieves?"
After looking carefully, Mu Changyun and Liu Qiyan both felt strange, and wanted to ask Na Ding again, but he didn't leave his location before he left, and the subordinates sent by the leader of Lu Cheng couldn't follow him.
"Let's ignore this matter for now, just be more careful when the time comes. Now we have to go through this secret passage first to find that Princess Kunyu."
After checking it repeatedly, the few of them went to rest early.
In the early morning of the second day, Mu Changyun bid farewell to the overwhelmed leader of Lu Cheng, and couldn't refuse to take a few good defenders in the city, and the group headed for the mountains.
The entrance to the secret path marked in the picture is not at the foot of the mountain, but you have to walk from the south of the city to the west for a while, and then you can find it after entering the hinterland of the mountain.
The mountains and forests in southern Xinjiang are different from other places in Yunguo. The ground here is very humid, and the trees in the forest cover the clouds and the sun, making the environment sultry and hot.Not long after entering the forest, the temples of a few people were drenched with sweat.
"Is the weather here always like this?" Mu Sigui couldn't stand the boring itinerary, so he couldn't help chatting with a few soldiers.
"Yeah, it's like this for most of the year. It's hot and it rains all the time. It's better when the wind blows in autumn."
"There are so many plants here, I have never seen them in other places!"
"Haha, it's not just plants, there are also many strange snakes, insects, rats and ants, you guys must be careful." Although the soldier's martial arts is not as good as the others, he is able to walk in this forest with ease, walking very easily, " In the forests of southern Xinjiang, those poisonous insects and snakes are especially powerful! When I first came here a few years ago, I saw with my own eyes a colleague who was stung by an unknown insect at night, and the result was so heavy that his entire arm was round."
"Hey! So scary!"
"No, it's still light. If you're unlucky, one bite can kill you! But it seems that few people come here on weekdays. It's said that people around are avoiding this place."
"Oh? Why is that?"
"Haha, it is said that it was passed down from ancient times. An old man told me that there is an evil spirit here!"
"..." What the hell!
Mu Changyun didn't make a sound, just walked and paid attention to his surroundings, listening to their chat quietly.Although this soldier talked a lot, he really knew a lot about Southern Xinjiang. It could be seen that he had been here for quite a long time.
"...So, when walking in this forest, you must listen carefully to the sound of your feet, in case you step on something that you can't step on..."
"Kah."
The soldier hadn't finished speaking, but Mu Sigui seemed to hear a strange, dull voice.
"Kah."
one more time.
After making sure it wasn't a hallucination, Mu Sigui gestured for them to stop, and the chatty soldier also immediately shut up, with a serious expression on his guard.
"Kah."
The sound seemed to come from the surrounding trees, and it sounded above the heads of several people, but each time it came from a different direction.
"Crack,,,,,,,,,,,,,
The frequency of the voice gradually accelerated, Liu Qiyan was the first to notice the clue in a tree in front of him, and immediately opened his eyes wide.
Fuck, do you want to be so scary!Isn't it weird that there are bugs that grow like this?
Then, the reality immediately told him that there were more than that, there were many more!
It was only then that several people discovered that from different trees, countless giant insects with strange shapes slowly drilled out, covering almost all the trees in the area where the forest was located.
He only felt that the news that he took out from Na Ding Wangxing's mouth this time was extremely important, and he couldn't help fantasizing that after he handed it over, he would definitely be rewarded by Mr. Zhao!
So, he tightened the stack of papers in his arms, and walked even more hastily.
