I nodded to indicate that it was okay, and Luo You soon led a man with a deer-headed and mouse-like eyes in. The man gave me a flattering look and bowed to me in a manner standard to the Nine Heavens, and then bowed down there. He wouldn't have done it if I called him.
It seems that compared with the neat and beautiful handwriting on the leather scroll, this is so different that it was difficult for me to combine them into one.
"Immortal Lord, that city lord was so cruel. After they sent the Zi family out of the city, they led a group of people to intercept and kill them on the way. The women humiliated them, and none of the men failed to show their face before they died.
The ferocious look on their faces shows that they must be filled with resentment. They were thrown into the cracks of the hills and canyons after death, and their bodies were dumped in the wilderness. It was too horrible to see..." The visitor's face was full of teeth.
I frowned and asked, "Since it was an interception, how do you know it was the city lord who did it?"
"Chang Ying, you must not hide anything from the Immortal Lord, otherwise if you leave this barbaric world, you will never be able to go to heaven!" Luo You saw my doubts and quickly reminded the person in front of me.
Chang Ying nodded seriously, and then said firmly: "Among the escorts, there are my friends in this big city... It was I who poured him three large pots of blood wine and deliberately led him in that direction, so he described it after drinking. I am enough
It was pure luck that I found out about this, so I went looking for the trace, and it turned out to be true!"
"Where is your friend?" I asked.
"He participated in this matter and was killed by me." Chang Ying still felt resentful.
I nodded and said: "You have done a good job. Besides the city lord of the largest city, who else is related to this matter?"
"The Hunters' Guild is also jointly participating in this! The Hunters' Guild has been controlled by the God's Throne. They are responsible for escorting more than a dozen city residents out of the city, while the city lord's private hunters are responsible for intercepting and killing them!" Chang Ying said through gritted teeth.
"Well, you go investigate the more specific things here, and make a list for me before tomorrow. Let's meet at Zi's house in this big city tomorrow," I said.
"Is the Immortal Lord planning to avenge the Zi family?" Chang Ying asked quickly.
"Is this something you can ask?" Luo You glared at him, and Chang Ying shrank back in fright. I waved my hand to indicate that it was not necessary, and said: "Now that we have broken up, there is no need to hide it anymore.
,Revenge when there is a grudge, and revenge when there is a grudge!”
"Yes! Immortal Lord, please uphold justice!" Chang Ying said loudly, Luo You quickly raised her hand to whisper, but then she still said: "Immortal Lord, since you said these are matters involving Qiong Tianxian, then the city lord and hunter
Being so arrogant may have something to do with Qiong Tianxian behind it. If we execute the city lord and the director of the Hunter Bureau of the big city so openly, will it attract Qiong Tianxian? I'm afraid then..."
"It doesn't matter, I don't believe what they can do to me!" I said with a desolate look on my face. Luo You and Chang Ying didn't dare to say anything anymore. At this time, they were both holding their breath.
I quickly returned to Zi's house, and Zi Jiang had already returned. Seeing her happy face as if she had gained something, my eyebrows suddenly condensed: "Did Miss Zi get some good news?"
"Well! That's good news!" Zi Jiang said happily. At my signal, she continued: "My parents left a message when they left, saying that they were going to work in the second largest city. It seems that they were
The city lord promised him a position as the district's blood drinking dispatch chief. He may be in the second city now, so let's go to the second city quickly!"
I shook my head and showed a trace of unbearability. Although the city in Shangsancheng was so huge that there were dozens in each area, and the official position was reasonable, it was just a lie to deceive and comfort them. It was precisely because of such lies that they lured them to leave the city.
If he didn't come back by then, he would have been caught and intercepted on the way. It was definitely not because the city lord and others made improper arrangements.
"What's wrong? Head Xia...did you also get some news?" Zi Jiang suddenly showed doubts.
I nodded and quickly took out the scroll I brought back just because I was afraid that Zi Jiang wouldn't believe it. As expected, after Zi Jiang finished reading the scroll, her whole body felt as if her soul had been taken away, and she was so excited.
And all the relief was gone.
She was shocked and disbelieving, and asked the same question I asked Chang Ying before, and even planned to go to the crime scene. In fact, I also wanted to know the truth of what Chang Ying said, so I took advantage of the night.
I didn’t hesitate to take Zi Jiang to the location marked on the map.
The mountain wind howled by, and Zi Jiang and I flew down to the lower point of the canyon. Not long after, we saw many simple tombs piled up, and many of them were even dug open by scavengers. I sighed and looked at the occasional tombs.
The rotten broken bones and limbs that can be seen are naturally unpleasant to the heart.
Zi Jiang suddenly didn't notice the strong smell of decay here, and didn't even think there was anything dirty here. She rushed forward and dug up the tombs, eagerly looking for the bodies of her parents.
I was not idle either. I dug out some unexcavated tombs with just a few clicks, and soon dug out the rotting corpses one after another. Until Zi Jiang looked desperate and threw herself at two of the corpses hysterically.
Only then did he stop, and returned the other disturbed corpses to the grave pit, and covered them with sapphire so that the scavengers could no longer dig them out.
After a rough inspection of the corpses here, there are at least close to a hundred. This should be almost consistent with the news I got before. They are probably the corpses of relatives and friends that were prepared to be disposed of after the first city selected immortals. There are also some that are inconvenient to dispose of.
The first largest city has a certain reputation, for example, those who are related to the God's Throne, of course, will not be executed, because they are all controllable by the God's Throne and the Hunter Bureau.
The God Throne used a solemn cauldron to move the entire wild world. The appearance of Qiongtian Immortal also plunged the world into chaos. Now it is time for them to pay the price, so that the Qiongtian world can return to its true nature and no longer fall into chaos.
You have deceived me.
Zi Jiang doesn't need my comfort, her fire of revenge has already burned her with hatred. Even when I said she would wait until the list arrives before taking revenge, she didn't plan to wait any longer and flew directly to the first city.
I chased after her. It was impossible to stop her now. She and the City Lord's Mansion of the largest city and the Hunter Bureau were no longer at odds with each other!
By the time we flew to the big city, the sky was already bright. Looking at us flying unscrupulously in the sky, the hunters in the city were naturally surprised. There were even some gods calling the mountains, but they probably didn’t know what was coming next.
Death comes, not some god who brings you good luck!
Watching Zi Jiang fly towards the Hunter Bureau's headquarters, I also flew back to Zi's house. Firstly, I wanted to bring the murderous corpse Pan Shu with me, and secondly, I also wanted to check the list that Chang Ying had investigated all night.
