Hearing that Yan Gang was the general of Zhenxi, the strong man guarding the gate immediately said: "The owner of the village has gone out to graze and is not in the village."
Sure enough, Ma Feizi was not there.
Yan Gang asked coldly: "Who is in charge in Zhuangzi now?"
The strong man looked at his companion next to him and said, "Now, I am in charge of the second village owner."
Yan Gang frowned when he heard this, and asked coldly: "Second village owner? When did a second village owner come out? Where is your young village owner Ma Xiong?"
Ma Xiong is the grandson of Ma Feizi and the young owner of Mazhuang.
When Ma Feizi was in Mazhuang, Ma Feizi was in charge.
When Ma Feizi was away, Ma Xiong, the young owner of the village, was in charge.
Before Yan Gang came, he had read the information about Mazhuang and knew the situation of Mazhuang.
The strong man spoke hesitantly and evasively: "He, the owner of the horse farm, belongs to the second owner of the farm."
Yan Gang got impatient, got off his horse, and walked straight into Mazhuang. The soldiers behind him surrounded Zhuangzi and prohibited anyone from entering or exiting.
When he arrived at Zhuangzi, Yan Gang entered the ancestral hall in the outer courtyard and sat down. The servants in Zhuangzi immediately reported to the second village leader Yizhi.
At this time, Zhang Yizhi was still in the inner courtyard. After hearing the news, she immediately came out of the inner courtyard and went to the ancestral hall, where she saw Yan Gang with a stern face.
"The common people pay homage to General Yan."
Zhang Yizhi bowed to Yan Gang.
Yan Gang looked at Zhang Yizhi coldly and asked: "Who are you?"
Zhang Yizhi smiled and replied: "The grassroots are the second owners of Mazhuang."
Yan Gang looked at Zhang Yizhi carefully and asked, "When did you arrive at Mazhuang, and when did you become the second owner of the village?"
Zhang Yizhi replied: "The grass-roots people have been coming to Mazhuang for more than ten years. The owner of the village just promoted me a few days ago and I became the second owner of the village."
Yan Gang stared at Zhang Yizhi for a long time and asked, "Where is Ma Feizi?"
Zhang Yizhi replied: "Spring has begun, and the owner of the farm has driven his horses to the grassland to graze."
Yan Gang asked coldly: "Herding? Why do you have to drive 200,000 horses? Can you drive so many horses?"
Zhang Yizhi replied: "The owner of the farm raises dozens of horses. Years later, there are plenty of ways."
Yan Gang nodded slightly and asked, "Where is Ma Xiong?"
Zhang Yizhi said: "The young owner followed the owner to graze the cattle and entered the grassland together."
Ma Feizi's son passed away, leaving behind a son and a daughter. When Ma Feizi left, he took his grandson and granddaughter with him, and the whole family of three went.
At that time, Ma Feizi thought that meeting the Martial Saint and the Ghost Girl would be an opportunity for the whole family to become immortals and live forever.
He would never have imagined that after he obtained the holy blood of a ghost girl, his grandchildren would become the prey of the ghost tribe.
"So, you have the final say in Mazhuang now?"
Zhang Yizhi smiled and replied: "For the time being, the grassroots have the final say."
Yan Gang stared at Zhang Yizhi without saying a word for a long time.
Ma Feizi's whole family ran away, and things were definitely not simple.
"They go to the grassland just to graze?"
When Yan Gang asked, Zhang Yizhi said: "That's it."
Yan Gang was silent for a moment, then suddenly shouted: "Take it down!"
Two soldiers came forward, pushed Zhang Yizhi to the ground, struggled and shouted: "General, why did you take me?"
Yan Gang ignored it and shouted: "Get it off!"
The two soldiers were stunned for a moment, thinking they heard wrongly.
Yan Gang glared at the two of them, and they immediately took off Zhang Yizhi's clothes.
"Eunuch?"
After taking off their clothes, the two soldiers were surprised. They didn't expect that Zhang Yizhi was actually a eunuch.
"I'm just telling you, I always feel like something is wrong. It turns out to be a eunuch."
"You have a Nanliang accent, and you are from Jinling. You are a eunuch from Nanliang."
"How did you get here? What is your relationship with the Nanliang royal family! What is the relationship between Ma Feizi and Nanliang!"
Yan Gang asked several questions in succession, and Zhang Yizhi went from struggling and shouting to becoming silent.
Seeing that Zhang Yizhi didn't speak, Yan Gang said coldly: "I have been guarding Diaoyu Town for many years, and I am most familiar with your Nanliang accent. You can't deceive me."
"Take down all the people in Zhuangzi and interrogate them one by one!"
The soldiers immediately searched Mazhuang and no one was allowed to leave.
Soon, the interrogation came to fruition, and Ma Feizi was asked about his meeting with Li Chengdao. .??.
Yan Gang felt that the matter was urgent and immediately reported the matter to Donna.
.
North of Yanmen Pass.
The 50,000-strong army slowly retreated, getting closer and closer to Yanmen Pass.
The empress led the troops in front, while Long Chen and Yu Wenkai were at the back.
"Old General, I have a question."
Yu Wenkai was riding on horseback, playing with a short musket in his hand.
This is Long Chen's sidearm. Yu Wenkai said to take a look, so Long Chen gave it to him, and then Yu Wenkai kept looking at it.
"explain."
Yu Wenkai imitated Long Chen's aim, and then pulled the trigger.
"When I was at Holy Snow Peak, I ate dried meat and turned into a half-ghost body."
"I have always felt that the changes in my body are related to that kind of mushroom. It is that kind of mushroom that has special effects and changed my physique."
"So where did the ghost tribe come from? Their physique is the same as ours, or even stronger. What did they eat?"
This question has been lingering in Long Chen's mind for a long time.
What is the origin of the ghost clan? Why does the body change?
Yu Wenkai shook his head and said: "I don't know either. I only know that the ghost tribe lives in the ice field. They live very long. People who are bitten by the ghost tribe will go crazy and become bloodthirsty, and their bodies will change accordingly. The ghost tribe that has sucked human blood will
It will also become stronger.”
Long Chen asked again: "What's the difference between the ghosts in the ice field and the half-ghosts who eat dried meat? Their bodies are different from ordinary people. They can eat people and drink blood. They look like the same kind."
"I have conducted experiments on death row prisoners and found that You will not become a half-ghost by eating mushrooms. You must pass through cattle, sheep and deer. After they eat the mushrooms, people will become half-ghosts if they eat meat. Why is this?"
When he was in the capital, Long Chen conducted experiments on death row prisoners. He gave them raw mushrooms to eat. There would be signs of poisoning after eating, but it would not change their physique.
This shows that eating mushrooms directly will not have any effect and must be transformed through livestock.
Yu Wenkai was made dizzy by Long Chen's question. He swayed the liquor in his hand and said, "Don't ask me, I've never thought about this question before. Why are you asking this?"
Yu Wenkai had never thought about these questions about Long Chen, and no one had ever asked them.
Long Chen said: "Old general, in order to defeat the ghost clan, I established a meat and vegetable garden at Yanmen Pass, and almost a hundred thousand soldiers became half-ghosts."
"During the war, they fought bloody battles outside the Great Wall. When the war is over, they will all return to their hometown."
"Old General, if hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of half-ghosts return to their hometown, what will happen if they eat people?"
Yu Wenkai's expression also became serious.
Hundreds of thousands of warriors were forced to change in order to fight the ghost tribe.
These people are the heroes of the world, and it is impossible not to allow them to return home.
But if you return home, half-ghosts will spread all over the world, and it will be over.
"If you know how the half-ghost came about, you can find a way to solve it."
Long Chen looked sadly at the army ahead.
Yu Wenkai said: "I have never thought about such a problem. I just want to destroy the ghost clan."
"You think too far and think about what to do after victory."
"I remember who mentioned this question at the time, but I can't remember clearly. It's been buried for four hundred years, so I can't remember many things."
Yu Wenkai tried his best to remember, but still couldn't remember.
Northwest.
Feng He was riding a horse, followed by another horse, running hurriedly from behind.
Seeing Feng He in such a hurry, Long Chen had a hunch that something was going wrong.
