In the room, Geshan's suggestion did not waver anyone. Mu Qing did not immediately deny his suggestion, but looked at Zhang Zhiyuan.
"There are twenty-three people in total, two of them are the young lady's classmates, and the rest are from the past."
Mu Qing hesitated to speak. Zhang Zhiyuan knew what he wanted to ask. He nodded slightly and sighed: "Xiaoya has become like that. I don't know what their current situation is."
Huaifenghua's eyes lit up and she asked Mu Qing, "You should have seen them, right?"
Mu Qing's thankful expression froze on his face. Geshan, who was being ignored by everyone, helped him out and said: "The meridians of their limbs were picked out and their tongues were cut. Because they were locked in darkness all day long, their eyesight deteriorated. I'm afraid they want to It’s difficult to return to a normal life.”
Huaifenghua opened her mouth. Seeing her sad face, Geshan couldn't bear it. He didn't tell her the miserable situation of her two senior sisters, but emphasized again: "Because of what happened that night, Bai Hao's treatment of these people The guards are much stricter. Although I can contact them, there are other people guarding them at the same time. I don’t think you will only rescue one person like that night. With so many people taking action, have you thought of any countermeasures? ?”
"We considered this issue before we came. We planned to take them to Yanfufang through the tunnel, and then leave the inner city through the south gate."
Huai Fenghua looked at Ge Shan and said sincerely: "Commander Ting Xing said that the current South Gate guard Xiong San is obedient to you. I wonder if Mr. Ge is willing to help?"
Geshan remained silent.
Mu Qing and Huaifenghua glanced at each other, both knowing that doing so was no longer difficult.
If those people in the dungeon are really allowed to leave the inner city quietly, Bai Hao will never let go of everyone related to them easily. So Mu Qing added sincerely: "If Mr. Ge has any requests, you can put them forward first."
Ge Shan chuckled: "I know you are good at it. If Bai Hao really wants to chase me, you can indeed stop him, but I just want to stay here. Is there anything you can do? I don't think about it either. What is the position of city lord? I am the current leader of Fenxi, can I continue to do so in the future?"
Mu Qing frowned. The "in the future" in Ge Shan's mouth naturally refers to after Bai Hao's failure. If Murong Jing is used to influence Hidden Valley's decision-making, it is not impossible for Ge Shan to achieve this condition, but doing so will make it impossible. Murong Jing was in an embarrassing situation.
He finally shook his head slowly and said bluntly: "Mr. Ge should be very aware of my current situation. I'm sorry, but I'm afraid I can't do this."
Ge Shan looked calm and nodded: "I spread your life experience through Xie Xiu. I can guess some things, but what are you going to do?"
Wang Yeqing narrowed his eyes and looked at Ge Shan, always feeling that there was something in Ge Shan's words.
Mu Qing glanced at the faces of the people in the room and said with a smile, "Didn't Mr. Ge already see it?"
Geshan said: "I want to rescue people first before the restrictions in Hidden Valley are reached, and then what?"
Mu Qing glanced at him and said calmly: "Find an opportunity to kill Bai Hao."
Geshan frowned and looked at the night outside the door with a bit of disappointment in his eyes. He said solemnly: "I don't believe in cause and effect, but my experience tells me that if destruction is the result, this place will only be the same as before. Have you never thought about taking over the responsibilities of your father and mother and becoming the lord of this city?"
"You are already the fifth person to ask me this question." Mu Qing said.
Ge Shan glanced at the other people in the room and realized that everyone was looking at Mu Qing with incomprehensible expressions. He couldn't help but let out a "ha" and said: "You probably haven't considered how Bai Hao will treat everyone after his death." Influence."
When Mu Qing was about to speak, Geshan stretched out his hand to stop him and said, "Not everyone will make the same choice as you. For example, I want to stay in love, and Xing Fei still wants to protect the people of this city. Are you hiding in the dark?" If Gu Nai retreats, the people staying with you will not be very free. They can't deal with you, but there is always a way to deal with them."
Huaifenghua shook his head and said: "Hidden Valley is not stupid enough to attack us, so don't be alarmist."
Ge Shan pointed at Huaifenghua, nodded and said, "Look, facts have proven that people who are truly good to you will not threaten you with their own safety, but you have to consider their thoughts."
Mu Qing was silent. It wasn't that he wasn't used to it, but that the world was changing too fast, but some things just rushed over him regardless of his likes and dislikes.
Seeing that he had obviously listened, Ge Shan softened and said, "If you make a decision, I can even contact families like Xie Xiu for you."
Mu Qing raised his head and said, "Although I am literate, I have learned almost all killing techniques, so I am not suitable to be a city lord."
Wang Yeqing smiled and said: "Does being a city lord have to do everything? If that's the case, then why does Bai Hao still use people like Mr. Ge? You can just take a look at it and leave the rest to us."
Huaifenghua glanced at Wang Yeqing, asking if she was too hasty. Wang Yeqing shook his head, looked at Mu Qing and continued: "I never thought that one day I would really leave Hidden Valley, but if you really become the lord of Suzaku City, some things will become much easier."
Mu Qing always felt very strange. After thinking about everything, he grasped the core question and said: "Why does everyone think that I can become the city lord?"
"Because they all slowly discovered that you are a good match."
Ge Shan glanced at Huaifenghua and said: "Not only because of your identity, but also because of your attitude. If you can really get rid of Bai Hao, in the eyes of Bai Emperor, your identity is much better than that of Bai Jianwen. You will not only You are young and powerful, and you do not belong to the Hidden Valley. People like you may make him want to test the emperor's mind-controlling skills on you."
"This is just something in the secular world. You don't know how many masters there are in Hidden Valley." Mu Qing shook his head and said.
Ge Shan gave him a strange look and said, "The relationship between Xing Fei and you should be better. With his support and your strength, are you really afraid of Hidden Valley?"
"Am I really afraid of Hidden Valley?" Mu Qing asked himself. Even without this adventure, he never gave up the idea of leaving Hidden Valley. What he was afraid of was just the responsibility he didn't want to bear.
Geshan knew that Mu Qing could not be completely swayed by his words tonight, so he stopped as soon as he could, and said in a deep voice: "At the south gate, I can say hello in advance, but it is really impossible to rescue these people on the list tonight."
He was not trying to show off, and said bluntly: "I said there are others watching them, Eunuch Cao from Baidi City. You should have fought against him. Xing Fei and I were unable to resist him when we met him that night. "
"He has been staying underground in the City Lord's Mansion?" Mu Qing frowned. If Cao Jin kept looking at those people, it would not be suitable for Huaifenghua and the others to go together.
Ge Shan said: "The Youyan Formation is a large formation built on natural ground. The spiritual energy is pure, which is good for the recovery of his injuries. However, he will leave for one night every half a day. Well, that is the night after three days." .”
Mu Qing instantly guessed the reason and frowned: "Will Bai Hao absorb blood food on this day?"
Geshan's eyes were slightly blurred. He was stunned for a moment and then shook his head and said: "The number of medicine people in the tunnel has not decreased. They will send everyone away every half a month. At that time, there should be no one guarding the hall of the Nether Flame Formation."
Everyone in the room fell into deep thought after hearing this, and Ge Shan sighed softly: "That Eunuch Cao from Baidi City should know what he is doing. I tested him once, but got nothing. He is very cautious in this matter. "
When Wang Yeqing was speaking in Geshan, he had been carefully studying his expression. At this time, he asked bluntly: "Mr. Ge's face is solemn, as if he has some guess?"
Geshan was silent for a moment, then sat down and said softly: "In these days, I have copied more than five tribes with the list he gave me. You should know something about it."
Wang Yeqing nodded and said: "He practices evil magic. After being seriously injured, I originally thought he would let you take these people back to the inner city, but the result was a bit unexpected."
"Kill everyone on the spot." Geshan has seen many scenes of bloodshed these days, and he seemed very calm when he said it: "I can't understand what he is doing. I can only see what the families involved are doing." There is no internal connection, but what surprises me is that two of the families who were killed are even his loyal supporters. It makes no sense to say who killed them for which party. "
Wang Yeqing thought of the chaos in the city in recent days and had to sigh: "There are so many Bai Hao, which is completely beyond everyone's expectations. It actually gives Chen Zhuo an advantage."
Geshan continued: "It wasn't until later, when I led people to blockade the White Pagoda Temple, that I had other ideas."
Huaifenghua frowned and appeared thoughtful. They discovered the White Pagoda Temple in Yanfufang through the mouth of a child. What could be connected with it?
Her eyes suddenly brightened, she stared at Geshan and asked: "Is it the formation? Is it possible that the places where these families are located are related to the formation?"
Geshan admired her agility very much and said: "It's a formation, and it's a new formation. Their bodies were disposed of at that time. I went back and looked at it later. The blood that was originally all over the floor had been processed according to a certain pattern." The rules were smeared on the ground.”
Although Mu Qing was not good at formations, he had faced formations several times and wondered: "If the formations were really carved with a lot of blood, then these places should have been filled with blood evil energy. Why haven't I heard this?" news."
He said and looked at Wang Yeqing.
Wang Yeqing was also a little confused: "I watched from a distance after the army left, and there was nothing strange."
Geshan's eyes narrowed, and his tone became much slower as he recalled what he saw at that time, "A small family had two to three hundred people. We dug a big hole in their house and piled up their bodies. Together, a fire burned. The smell was so unpleasant that no one wanted to stay longer. When they were waiting to see it, at the key points of those bloody formations, there should have been breath filling the sky, but it was covered up layer by layer. Covered by layers of black ash.”
The brows of several people in the room frowned and never relaxed again.
There are really people in this world who are so vicious. They not only use the blood of the deceased to carve formation patterns, but also the ashes of the deceased. This horror is more bloody and cruel than those bloody battlefields.
"Auntie, do you know this formation?" Mu Qing asked.
Huaifenghua shook her head with a heavy face. She vaguely felt that Bai Hao's strange behavior that was not understood by everyone was related to some of Wu Zong's deeds, but she could not extract useful information.
She looked at Geshan and said: "These five families are all in the outer city, and their positions cannot form some kind of linkage in the formation. Are there other families on the list?"
Geshan glanced at her, hesitated for a moment, then took the list from his sleeve and handed it to her.
"Five days. Bai Hao's order is to eliminate one family every five days, and he will disappear for one night afterwards. You'd better not reveal this list, and don't give it to Hidden Valley."
Ge Shan looked at Mu Qing and said, "The Xie family is also on the list, but the photo was taken at the last position. I originally wanted to contact them for you, but it seems that it is no longer necessary."
Mu Qing finally realized the weight of this list, but at this time, he could no longer refuse.
Geshan leaned on the table and looked out the door. The clouds in the sky were changing, and the light sky was submerged in the darkness of the flower garden. He was like a host who had carefully entertained guests for a day, with a trace of fatigue on his face. After Mu Qing issued the token, he saw off the guest and said, "At this point, everything that cannot be said has been said. In three days, if you take this token, Xiong San will know what to do, but the south gate of this place is very It’s important, you’d better cover for him.”
Mu Qing agreed without hesitation. If he couldn't even do this, he would be embarrassed. He looked at Ge Shan and was about to ask him if he wanted to change the terms. Ge Shan walked directly to the bed and said in a very tired tone. : "Remember to wipe away all traces of your presence when you go out, I won't give it away."
