For most people in Tianmen County, Yaowu Bo is a very unfamiliar name, but for those older Nascent Soul bosses, this name is still very familiar. It's just that they don't know why this name that often appears suddenly fades away, but they don't know that this name that has been missing for a long time will suddenly appear again.
"Uncle Yaowu, are you talking about the prince-consort who disappeared two hundred years ago?" Qin Jiang, the head of the Qin family, couldn't help but asked in surprise. You must know that when Princess Zixiao was in charge of Tianmen, he was just a Qi training monk, so he was not interested in this There is naturally awe in the name.
"Prince-in-law? The remnants of Zixiao?" Ling Jue frowned slightly.
"The remnant of Zixiao? Master Qianhu, be careful what you say." Qin Jiang said dissatisfied: "Although Princess Zixiao is in prison, Uncle Yaowu is not implicated. His title is still there, and it is not something we can discuss later."
Qin Jiang's words also woke up everyone. Not to mention Princess Zixiao, but the title of Uncle Yaowu was worthy of their careful treatment. Although they were not asked to make any big salutes, it was still necessary to stand to greet her.
"This girl, I wonder where the Prince Consort is?" Qin Jiang asked hurriedly.
"That's me." Mu Yun looked at his clothes and said helplessly. If he had known this, he would have changed his clothes.
"You are? Are you the Prince Consort?" Qin Jiang said excitedly.
"Who are you?" Mu Yun looked at the somewhat elderly Qin Jiang and asked in confusion.
"I am Xiao Jiangzi, your follower Xiao Jiangzi!" Qin Jiang said excitedly.
"You are Xiao Jiangzi!" Mu Yun was also surprised, but he was disappointed and said: "I didn't expect you to be in the middle stage of Nascent Soul."
"It's thanks to your reward, Prince Consort, that I can settle down and establish a career in Tianmen County." Qin Jiang still said respectfully, "By the way, Prince Consort, what happened to you in the past two hundred years? Not only have you been missing for so many years, but your cultivation has also not improved. An inch forward."
Mu Yun said half truthfully: "Stop it. I was attacked by that bitch Zixia and trapped in Ten Thousand Corpses Cliff for more than two hundred years. I didn't wake up until now. I don't want to sleep for more than two hundred years."
"Ten Thousand Corpses Cliff?" Ling Jue quickly came to his senses and asked, "Do you know the origin of the bone unicorn?"
"I know, isn't it also from Ten Thousand Corpses Cliff? It was your blood that awakened it. As for its details, I actually don't know much about it. After all, there are too many messy things in the blood pool." Mu Yun replied road.
"In that case, why did the Lord deceive us then?" Ling Jue continued to ask.
"No." Mu Yun shook his head and said, "Everything I said is true. I do have no identity certificate. After all, I didn't have that thing when I sealed it."
"Then you said your name is Murong Yun." Lingjue Yinya bit her tongue lightly.
"I said my name is Mu Yun, maybe you heard me wrong." Mu Yun still shook his head and said, "And now is the time to talk about this. After all, a crisis can happen at any time, so we can't waste any more time."
Ling never believed that Mu Yun and Princess Zixiao had no relationship at all. Even if she was really innocent, it was impossible not to be implicated. The reason why Zixiao was able to stay out of the rebellion against the Yaowu Mansion was simply because Mu Yun had already disappeared. After more than a hundred years, it's impossible to ignore Mu Yun's reappearance in the palace, right?
But she cannot ignore an important fact, that is, at least Mu Yun is still Uncle Yaowu. As long as his title is still there, it is not something that she, a small Qianhu, can touch. Therefore, before knowing the clear attitude of the palace, she could only regard Mu Yun as the person with the highest status in the room.
"Then what are your orders, sir?" Ling Jue had no choice but to say respectfully.
"It's very simple, just do what Lin Yan said." Mu Yun said calmly.
Chen Boqing shook his head and said, "My lord, two hundred years have passed and this place is no longer your fiefdom. So although your status is noble, it is not convenient for you to interfere in local affairs."
"Then you don't want to?" Mu Yun asked, but his tone was quite sharp.
"It's not unwillingness." Chen Boqing shook his head hurriedly. He was also very helpless at this time. If he made his attitude clear, it would mean that he would take all responsibilities. This is what others want to see.
So he added: "It's just that the matter is so important that I dare not make a hasty conclusion without sufficient evidence."
"Since there is no complete evidence, then go and investigate! Why don't you look for so many monsters that have disappeared? Are there any tunnels in the mountains? Isn't this what you, a county magistrate, should do?" Mu Yun continued to question.
"This..." Chen Boqing was speechless for a moment, but he still explained: "There are thousands of caves in this mountain, how can we check them?"
"You asked me, then who should I ask? Didn't you say that I only have a title and no right to manage your local affairs?" Mu Yun asked again.
Chen Boqing couldn't refute for a moment. Lin Yan was obviously willing to take all the responsibilities, so why did he end up taking the blame?
In desperation, he could only look at Lin Yan and ask: "Special Envoy Lin Yan, what do you think we should do?"
Lin Yan could only reply: "As you said, there are thousands of caves in this mountain. It is unrealistic to check them one by one. But we are not afraid of these monsters hiding in caves, but we are afraid of sneak attacks by these monsters through tunnels. The county seat, so we don’t need to go to the mountains to check at all, we just need to confirm that there are no traces of monsters underground within a radius of twenty miles.”
"But what about the manpower?" Chen Boqing shook his head and said, "Now everyone is busy hunting, and there is no way to spare manpower."
"There should be someone available at this time, right?" Yun Manluo also retorted, "Those who should be transferred back for this kind of thing should still be transferred back."
Qin Jiang also echoed: "Our Qin family is also willing to help."
Chen Boqing smiled bitterly and nodded, but still said: "Having said that, Miss Lin Yan also said that she would recall everyone to prepare for war, but I am not the one who has the final say."
Except for the Qin family, the other forces have a wait-and-see attitude. After all, this hunting conference not only has personal rankings, but also power rankings and regional rankings in the entire Dahua, which all affect the court's allocation of local resources.
"Let's do this." Lin Du also stood up and said, "After all, everything is still groundless. We, the Lin family, will send one-third of our people to help the Lord investigate the truth, but we also ask the Lord to allow us to continue hunting."
Lin Du's approach also gave other forces a direction, so they also nodded and said: "We are also willing to send people to assist the lord."
Mu Yun sighed lightly, even with his status he could only do this, so he could only turn around and said: "It's not to help me, it's to help the government."
"Don't dare! Don't dare! It's to assist the special envoy Lin Yan." Chen Boqing waved his hands hurriedly, he did not dare to bear this responsibility.
Jiang You didn't care so much. There were so many masters at her disposal, so she said politely: "In that case, don't waste time. Let's gather everyone outside the south gate and divide them into groups according to their strength." area."
The originally peaceful atmosphere of the New Year was immediately broken. The city suddenly felt like a war. All the barriers were half-opened, and soldiers began to search and patrol the streets and alleys.
"What happened? Is there another attack from the Western Region?" an old man who was queuing up to fetch water at the well asked inexplicably.
"You are overthinking. The Western Region has been suppressed and beaten by our Dahua for decades. Don't forget that the Xirong Kingdom was just destroyed." Another middle-aged man said disdainfully.
"The government was afraid of monsters attacking the city, so they asked people who went hunting to come back and be on guard. My second child was summoned back." A woman doing laundry interjected.
"Again, wasting money and people? Mr. Chen doesn't want to do this anymore just two years after he took office?" the old man who spoke first said disdainfully.
"This time it's not Mr. Chen who gave the order, it's Lin Yan who was chosen by Fairy Fengyao." The woman shook her head.
"It turned out to be that yellow-haired girl. Relying on her father and luck, she really thought she was a green onion!" The old man said with a disdainful smile.
"That's true." The woman nodded and said, "I heard that girl had very bad conduct. She even killed her own sisters for the treasure, so she was kicked out by the Lin family."
"Shouldn't such a person be dragged and beheaded? Why should he be used as a substitute for King Zhongwu? After this incident, we must make the matter bigger so that Fairy Fengyao knows about it and cannot let her be deceived!" The middle-aged man is also the same! He nodded.
At this time, Jiang You could not control the commotion in the city. It was a race against time. In addition to most of the Qin family, other forces also called some Qi training monks. Although there were many people, it was effective. not so useful.
In addition, things underground are difficult to detect with spiritual consciousness, so everyone uses the most primitive Luoyang shovel. Although the strength and materials of the cultivation world are far better than those of the original world, this is still a big project.
Time passed like this minute by minute, and soon it was afternoon. The hunting conference was about to end. Many people had given up. Although they were still struggling to drill every hole, their complaints about Jiang You were growing. The deeper.
Jiang You was just drilling with everyone. As long as the predetermined spot was not drilled completely, it meant that there was a possibility of a sneak attack by the monster.
At this time, her heart was also complicated. If she found something, it would undoubtedly be a tragedy, but if she didn't find anything, it would not be a good thing for Jiang You.
"It's empty down here." A soldier suddenly shouted while holding his Luoyang shovel.
Jiang Youye became nervous because of this, and she quickly ordered: "Quick, everyone try the surrounding spots."
Dozens of soldiers hurriedly took action and found a strip of hollow, much like a tunnel.
"Blood! It's monster blood!" Another soldier shouted. He was also frightened at this time, because the point he drilled was less than ten meters away from the city wall. You must know that the enchantment in the county seems to be opened, but it is only for Lin Yan to see. In order to save the spirit stone, the county magistrate did not really open the underground enchantment.
"It's over! Tell the adults to open all the barriers!" the soldier shouted again.
At the same time, at the well where the melon-eating people were chatting, the old man finally lifted the bucket up, but what he brought up was not only water, but also a second-order tiger spider as big as the mouth of the well.
"Help! The monster has entered the city!" The woman shouted the last words in her shrill voice, and countless tiger spiders crawled out of the well mouth.
