Yang Xian followed the direction of Qianqiu's finger and saw Gao Yuanda, who had turned into a monster not far away, with his head lowered and gnawing on a bloody mass of meat in his hand. His face was full of filth, and he could no longer be seen. So done.
"Lao Yang, have you noticed? Now Gao Yuanda has turned into a powerful monster. It makes sense if you think about it carefully. The real culprit behind this must have crossed the river and demolished the bridge. Seeing that Gao Yuanda was unable to break through the defenses of the four city gates, , so he committed this vicious attack." Qianqiu analyzed.
Yang Xian calmed down, opened his eyes, looked around, and said slowly: "So, the real culprit behind the scenes is probably nearby."
Qianqiu nodded, then looked up at the poison barrier above his head, and said: "It's just that this poison barrier suppresses your and my cultivation. Neither you nor I can do it. Even if we find this person, we will probably not be her opponent."
Yang Xian tried to run his cultivation and felt a slight fluctuation coming from the depths of the cultivation pool, so he said to Qianqiu: "Brother Qian, it seems that I still have a little power of cultivation."
Qianqiu looked at Yang Xian in surprise and said: "But I can't feel the slightest fluctuation in my cultivation, and I can't communicate with the spirit beasts in the contract talisman. Is it because you ate the Juejue Fruit? The spirit of the Juejue Fruit The power started to flow out? But didn’t the blood coral give you medicine to suppress the surging spiritual power? "
Yang Xian did not answer, but slowly stimulated the spiritual power fluctuations in the depths of the cultivation pool. In a flash, he said excitedly: "Yes! I really felt the power of cultivation, and I vaguely heard the twins in the contract talisman. The mink hunter’s greeting.”
Qianqiu pressed Yang Xian's shoulders and said: "Old Yang, you first try to find a place to see if you can activate all the power of cultivation. If you can return to normal, this catastrophe may be able to be subsided. . I will go look elsewhere now and inform Mr. Gao and the others." After saying that, he turned around and left.
Yang Xian looked around and found a big stone mill beside the street at night. He sneaked up and touched it quietly, thinking that it would be safer to hide under the stone mill.
Qianqiu avoided the monsters, turned two streets, and detoured out of Dongshi.
Nowadays, all the mutated monsters are concentrated on Dongshi Street. The county government police officers have blocked the streets in front and back, which has temporarily slowed down the spread of monsters. However, many monsters have already begun to chew on the piled sandbags. They seem to know how to chew. Drop these things and you can walk out.
From a distance, Qianqiu saw Gao Kuang leading a group of people in his direction.
"Qian Shaoxia! Your Excellency has sent us to help you." As he got closer, Gundam saw Qian Qiu not far away and said to him.
Qianqiu waved his hands and said in embarrassment: "There is no rush to help me, but now that Jiang Lan is developing the antidote, Yang Xian and I have analyzed the whereabouts of these monsters. They are coming for you Gaozhen people."
Gao Kuang's expression changed and he said, "So, the real culprit behind the scenes has a grudge against us Gao Town people?"
Qianqiu thought for a moment and said: "It should be like this. The first four villages are part of the murderer's plan. It should be to increase the number of monsters and surround you Gaozhen people here."
"According to what the young hero said, where should we go to find the real murderer now? Although Gao Zhen is not a big town, it will take some time to find him, and the current situation does not allow it."
As soon as Gao Kuang finished speaking, a sentence came from a dark corner not far away: "You don't have to work so hard to find me, I'm here in person."
By the light of the fire, a thin woman walked out of the darkness, it was Qiao Fengyi.
Qiao Fengyi held a long wooden hairpin in her hand and kept playing with it, saying: "Since you are working so hard to find me, I will come to you myself."
After she finished speaking, she raised her head and glanced at Qianqiu, and sneered: "People from the Oriental sect are really haunting. You are everywhere."
Qianqiu signaled Gao Kuang and others to step back. He walked forward, looked up and down, and said, "Who is coming?"
Qiao Fengyi did not answer Qianqiu's words and just said: "This is my grudge against the people of Gaozhen and has nothing to do with your Oriental sect. If you leave now, I can let you and the little scholar live."
Qianqiu looked at the woman in front of him and said, "The purpose of my sect is to save the world and eradicate evil demons and evildoers. Wherever there is injustice in the world, my sect's disciples will appear there. You still have to leave the way to survive." Just yourself."
"What a rescuer for the world." Qiao Fengyi glanced at the poison barrier in the sky, smiled, and asked: "You are not old, but your tone is not young. Let me ask you, what ability do you have to save these people now? people?"
Qianqiu was neither humble nor arrogant, and said seriously: "Although I don't know where you learned this poison barrier technique. However, what I want to tell you is that even if the poison barrier is entangled, I will not abandon the people of this high town."
"Then let's go on the road together. I don't care about one more enemy." Qiao Fengyi waved her hand casually, not paying any attention to Qianqiu's words. She seemed to have expected his answer. She raised her long hairpin and was about to cast a spell.
Qianqiu waved his hand and said, "Wait a minute."
Qiao Feng paused, smiled slightly, and asked, "Are you afraid of death?"
"No, I just want to be clear. What kind of hatred does your Excellency have with the people of Gao Town? Why did you destroy the entire town? These are innocent people." Qianqiu asked.
Qiao Fengyi looked at Gao Kuang who was standing behind Qianqiu, a trace of resentment flashed across his face, and said disdainfully: "Innocent? Now tell me about innocence. Why didn't you people in Gao Town think that my father was innocent and let him go?" Are you trying to get ahead of my family? Or are you here to help my family?"
Upon hearing this, Qianqiu knew that there must be a connection between this matter, so he took a step closer and suggested: "Since you have enmity with these people, why don't you make it clear and let them go to the underworld, and feel repentant when you meet your father."
Qiao Fengyi looked at Qianqiu in front of her, walked aside, put the long hairpin back into her bun, found a grassy spot and sat on it, and said: "What you kid said makes sense, let you bastards also If you know why you died, when you meet the King of Hell, don't say that my Qiao family is unreasonable."
Ten years ago, Gaozhen was just an inconspicuous town in the Eastern Mountains, and Qiao Fengyi's father, Qiao Guangquan, was Gaozhen's parent official.
Gao Zhen under Qiao Guangquan's governance has always been mediocre, with no outstanding deeds and no bad cases.
The good times did not last long. An extremely severe drought occurred in the second year after Qiao Guangquan took office. The fields failed to harvest anything, causing trouble in the always peaceful Gao Town.
Day after day, the number of victims increased, and the families of the people who had some surplus food began to struggle. The people of Gao Town will starve to death soon, but the food payment from the court has not arrived.
The people in Gaozhen began to complain a little about Qiao Guangquan, but they did not dare to say anything. After all, one side was a citizen and the other was an official.
Although Qiao Guangquan, a parent official, was inactive, he still had a sense of responsibility. Such a drought had caused the people to be in dire straits. Under this predicament, he was naturally extremely anxious and sent someone to the Holy Capital once every three days to urge food relief.
When the government and the people should work together to overcome the natural disaster, rumors immediately began to appear. I don't know who started it, and accused Qiao Guangquan of withholding the relief food without permission. As the saying goes, three people make a tiger, within a few days, the entire Gao Town people heard about this matter, and only a few people were half-doubtful about the corruption.
Later, a large group of people came to the government office and asked Qiao Guangquan to open a warehouse to store grain, otherwise they would destroy the government office. Mr. Qiao is in trouble and cannot tell. Where can he get food and grass to distribute? In desperation, he could only distribute his own food to the people first. However, how could Qiao Guangquan, who was an honest man, store so much food? In the end, it was only a drop in the bucket and he would soon be unable to distribute food.
The people of Gaozhen, who had reached the end of their rope, gave up and just demolished the government offices. In the end, they couldn't find a grain of rice.
Just like this, some days passed, and many people starved to death. When the relief food arrived, many people in Gao Town had starved to death.
Zhao Qian was furious when he heard about Gao Zhen and ordered the person responsible for the delay to be found out.
When the imperial envoys arrived in Gao Town to investigate the case, several police officers who were supposed to testify for Mr. Qiao to urge for food payment turned back and slandered Mr. Qiao. When we found the common people again, some remained silent in order to avoid disaster. Some people also had objections to Mr. Qiao's behavior of "hiding food and not letting it go", so they added a few words to Mr. Qiao's words.
In this way, the conscientious Qiao Guangquan and his family were pushed to Dongshi Caishikou and beheaded. Only his youngest daughter Qiao Fengyi escaped.
With the scapegoat in hand, Zhao Qian did not investigate the matter in depth, so it was left unsolved, and the real guilty person could not be found out.
Later, when new officials took office and times changed, the people who were ashamed of Qiao Guangquan actually became calm like this.
After saying everything, Qiao Fengyi had tears in her eyes, looked at Qianqiu and said: "My father has been an official for ten years. Although he has no political achievements, he still tried his best. He worked hard for Gao Town, not to mention credit, but in the end he ended up like this. A fate. Tell me, should these ruthless gangsters like Gao Zhen be killed? If it were you, would you take revenge?"
She almost gritted her teeth as she spoke.
"Listen to you, your enemy should be your father's superior grain official!" Qianqiu said.
Qiao Fengyi's eyes widened and she smiled coldly: "I've killed that scum a long time ago!"
Qianqiu's eyes were fixed and he asked: "Who is it?"
"Yang Ye, the eighth-grade grain and grass officer."
Qianqiu's mind flashed, and he felt something was wrong, and thought to himself: "The surname is Yang, and he is an official in the Holy Capital. Could it be related to Lao Yang?"
"What did you do to him?" He raised his eyes and asked.
Qiao Fengyi stood up, looked at the night, and said, "Kill."
At this moment, a figure appeared next to Qiao Fengyi.
"What the hell!" Qiao Fengyi didn't expect such a strange thing to happen under the poison barrier, so she hurriedly hid aside.
Under the torch, two minks that were identical except for their color stood in front of Qiao Fengyi, and a sentence came from the darkness: "How dare you kill my uncle!"
