The remaining two people were completely stunned.
They didn't expect that Shi Lingyao would take action immediately without any discussion.
Shi Lingyao smiled and asked, "Who else wants to die?"
The two men kept their mouths shut.
She was satisfied and nodded: "Then let me ask again, where does your gunpowder come from?"
Cold sweat broke out on both men's heads.
Shi Lingyao thought for a while: "In this way, whoever answers my question will live. If you don't answer the question, there is no value in living. Count down, 3, 2..."
"It's the military advisor! The military advisor provided us with gunpowder!"
A man was trembling and yelling, fearing that Shi Lingyao would make a move and die if he shouted too late.
Shi Lingyao raised his eyebrows: "Who is the military advisor?"
The man stuttered: "The military advisor is, just, the military advisor. We don't know his name, so we all call him military advisor."
Shi Lingyao turned to look at Jing Hexuan, and the two looked at each other.
Jing Hexuan asked: "What does he look like?"
"No, I don't know..."
Shi Lingyao raised his hand, and the thin vines with blood on their fronts scurried toward him like snakes.
The man squatted down holding his head and screamed: "I don't know, I really don't know! He always wears a big cloak, and you can't tell anything about him!"
This outfit looks a bit like Xu Yingying.
She asked: "Isn't he the man in black who was with your village leader before?"
"No, no! The military advisor came earlier than him! But the military advisor does not live in our village and rarely comes here. He only occasionally comes to see our village master." The man was so frightened that he lost his mind and answered all questions.
The other man, who had been very calm from the beginning, did not stop them and just stood aside silently, watching them asking questions.
She asked, "Can you tell what the accent is?"
The man was at a loss for a moment, seemed to have thought of something, and said excitedly: "Yes, yes, the accent! That man's accent seems to be from the north. The one who was with our village leader before has a typical southern accent. I don't know these two people." Wrong classification! And the military advisor is very tall! Yes! He is very tall!"
The clues seemed to point to the Imperial Capital again.
Seemingly unable to ask anything, she turned to the calm man and smiled: "Is there anything else you would like to add?"
The calm man only looked at her warily and did not answer.
Shi Lingyao spread his mind and invaded the man's consciousness.
This man's name is Li Shiren, a person from the imperial capital.
When Zhang Xing sent He Yuanqing back, someone noticed something unusual in the south and sent him to investigate the situation.
There is no need for him to go find Shi Lingyao, as long as the undercover agent is in a nearby village, he can deliver the information back at any time.
The military advisor is also from the Imperial Capital. To be precise, he has the same master. He is responsible for playing the role of a complete southerner. He is lurking in the village here and is equivalent to a spy sent by the Imperial Capital.
At first, there was a fight between the south and east stockades, including He Xixu and his party, who settled in the south stockade. Later, the east stockade was conquered by Shi Lingyao, and the leaders of both sides of the stockade changed and merged into one.
These matters were reported to the imperial capital by him.
The person in the imperial capital thought that Shi Lingyao was a big hidden danger. She could unite the scattered villages and was definitely not a simple person. The person was worried that her power would be too great and would be difficult to control in the future, so he decided to strangle her in the cradle in advance. .
So this time we sent a military advisor to bring gunpowder, just to enable them to succeed in one fell swoop.
As for how they got the news, it was naturally because they also had spies in the east village.
The two villages were merged and lived together, which made it more convenient for the spy. In the afternoon, when he learned that Shi Lingyao was coming, he immediately handed over the news.
They immediately prepared and brought some gunpowder for a night attack.
Some people still had selfish motives and felt that attacking a small village did not require so much gunpowder, so they only brought part of it and wanted to keep the rest for their own village.
As a result, it now seems that the gunpowder only blew up a stronghold. The people who really wanted to deal with it were not only unscathed, but they were also wiped out.
The man was so frightened that he peeed and stuttered: "Xia, Xia Nu, hero! I, I have said it all! I have told you everything I know! Spare your life, hero!"
Shi Lingyao glanced coldly, then looked at the blazing village.
The thin vines were like unsheathed swords, with blood-red marks, piercing his temples.
The man fell down quietly, his eyes wide open with fear.
Li Shiren was the only one left. When he saw this, he frowned: "Didn't he attack them all? Why did you bother to attack him? You have to kill them all?"
Shi Lingyao raised his eyebrows: "This is really interesting. The butcher who kills pigs teaches the guests who eat pork not to kill animals? What should you say when you bring gunpowder to attack this village at night?"
Li Shiren was speechless.
"The lives of your companions are important, but the lives of the innocent people in this village are not?"
Li Shiren frowned: "We are here for the mission! For the common people in the world!"
Shi Lingyao looked astonished: "Oh...it turns out you are not human."
Li Shiren said angrily: "What did you say?!"
Shi Lingyao: "O people in the world, there are no humans among the people in your world. That means you are not human and do not regard humans as compatriots."
Li Shiren was speechless and could only glare at her, but could not say another word.
Shi Lingyao looked bored: "Forget it, just kill him."
Li Shiren was shocked and shouted quickly: "Wait..."
The vines that harvested a circle of lives on the field moved swiftly and swished.
Li Shiren's eyes widened, and he fell to the ground with a bloody hole on his temple.
At that moment, Shi Lingyao sensed that his consciousness was chaotic.
The voices of regret and fear were the loudest, followed by some disjointed whispers, especially a man with a thick voice.
"As long as we master her, we will be able to dominate the imperial capital. Whether we can complete the task depends on you."
"We can't let He Xixu take the majority, and the current situation in the imperial capital cannot be broken."
The owner of this voice may be the one who sent him.
At least she knew one thing at this moment, the power of the visitor was opposite to He Xixu.
She turned to Jing Hexuan: "It seems that the conflict between the forces in your imperial capital has brought the war to me."
Jing Hexuan's back felt cold, he stood up straight in an instant, and spoke for himself again: "I am born as a person of Taoyuan City, and die as a ghost of Taoyuan City. You are my position."
Shi Ling looked at him from afar for a moment, then changed the subject: "There is still some gunpowder in their village, and it belongs to us now."
Jing Hexuan immediately said: "I'll go for a walk."
Shi Lingyao had no problem, he raised the corner of his mouth and said coldly: "Besides, there should be a lot of weapons. Take them all. If you are a person with bad intentions, don't keep any more."
Jing Hexuan nodded: "I understand, then you..."
"I'm going to meet the traitor."
