Under the sunset, at the foot of Tailao Mountain.
A man was touching and collecting corpses, while a woman was casting spells to gather rainwater to wash away the ground.
The scene looks very "harmonious".
Soon, everything was sorted.
"What should we do next?" Zhu Huiqin gathered her hair that was a little disheveled and asked Qin Ziling subconsciously.
"Didn't you say you were going to the ancient war ruins forbidden area in Taiyue Prefecture? I'll go with you." Qin Ziling replied.
"Are you going too?" Zhu Huiqin blurted out.
"If I don't go, am I going to watch you go to the Forbidden Land of the Ancient War Market to die? Besides, there should be a lot of good things besides the Dragon Fruit in the Forbidden Land of the Ancient War Market, and I'm also more interested." Qin Ziling said.
"But your strength..." Zhu Huiqin said.
"I'm just relatively strong, but actually my level is very low." Qin Ziling interrupted.
Zhu Huiqin looked at Qin Ziling, speechless.
"I don't know how many such eagles Mr. Mo has raised, so before going to Taiyue Prefecture, you'd better find a place, take a shower, and change clothes." Qin Ziling followed up.
Zhu Huiqin's face changed slightly when she heard this, and then she quickly looked down at her clothes and twitched her nose.
"Don't look at it. This kind of thing must be colorless and tasteless to humans. Otherwise, how could it escape your perception?" Qin Ziling said.
After that, Qin Ziling grabbed the Wind Catcher who had been knocked unconscious by him from the air, thought about it and finally touched its head.
Soon the Wind Catching Eagle woke up and looked at Qin Ziling blankly with a pair of eagle eyes.
"Go!" Qin Ziling let go.
The wind-catching eagle flapped its wings and soared into the sky, but instead of heading towards the city, it flew towards the vast Tailao Mountain.
Seeing that Qin Ziling had just killed people like melons, even killing beauties like Che Yanhong, he had no mercy at all, but he was reluctant to be cruel to a wind-catching hawk, and even took the trouble to move a little and let it go. , Zhu Huiqin found that she could not see through the man in front of her more and more.
However, Qin Ziling's actions just now made her inexplicably feel more at ease.
"Let's go." Qin Ziling said as he watched the Wind Catching Eagle spread its wings and fly away, then climbed on the Clouded Leopard Horse.
"Okay!" Zhu Huiqin followed and got on the Clouded Leopard Horse.
The two drove their horses into Tailao Mountain and soon found a place with a waterfall and a pool.
"I'll just change clothes and take a shower here." Zhu Huiqin said.
"Okay." Qin Ziling nodded, then turned around and walked to the front to sit cross-legged with his back to the pool.
Zhu Huiqin glanced at Qin Ziling's back, and without any hesitation, quickly took off her clothes and entered the pool.
…
Qingjunzhou, Magistrate's Mansion, back hall study.
Sitting on the Grand Master's chair was a man dressed as a scholar, with a face like a crown of jade, five long beards under his cheeks, an elegant and upright look, and he looked to be in his thirties or forties.
This man is none other than the judge of Qingjun Prefecture, Jin Yuan.
Jin Yuan was holding a book at this time, reading it quietly, leisurely and contentedly.
Manager Mo walked in quietly.
"Is it over? Is the speed okay?" Jin Yuanfeng said lightly, without raising his head to look at Manager Mo.
"Sir, I lost contact with Wind Eagle, and also lost all traces of Lonely Zhi's group and Zhu Huiqin." Manager Mo said softly.
"Oh! There is such a thing." Jin Yuan finally slowly put down the book and looked up at Manager Mo. The temperature in the whole room seemed to have suddenly dropped at this moment.
"Yes, it's very strange. This time, the Dugu family, the Che family, and the Chang family joined forces and dispatched two masters, Lonely Zhi and Che Yanhong, as well as eight great martial arts masters and great Qi refiners, as well as my arresters. Feng Ying helps guide the way, no matter how powerful Zhu Huiqin is, she will still be unable to fly." Manager Mo replied.
"Did she leave alone or with a companion?" Jin Yuan asked.
"There was a man, about thirty years old, with a small scar on the left side of his face. He came to visit her at noon. He said he was an old friend of Xiyunzhou, named Qin Feng." Manager Mo replied.
"This matter is a little weird, please continue to follow up on this matter. Zhu Huiqin is very talented and has the potential to be a grandmaster. Once she becomes a grandmaster, it will still be a bit tricky!" Jin Yuan said lightly.
"I understand, I will take action myself when necessary." Manager Mo bowed, exuding a cold and powerful aura.
"If there is no news from Dugu and the other three families, you should go to the ancient war ruins forbidden area in Qiluo Mountain in Taiyue Prefecture. The seal of the forbidden area there should fluctuate during this period. With Zhu Huiqin's character, she is very likely to Go there and give it a try. If the man with her is there, let me know." Jin Yuan said.
"Old slave, I understand." Manager Mo's pupils shrank slightly when he heard this, and then he bowed and stepped back.
After Manager Mo left, Jin Yuan picked up the scroll and started reading it again.
When Manager Mo left the study, Qin Ziling and Zhu Huiqin had already left the waterfall and pool, heading through the mountains and ridges towards Taiyue Prefecture.
Because there was still some time before the mana fluctuations were sealed in the ancient war ruins forbidden area, Qin Ziling still followed the original rhythm, traveling for half a day every day, and spent the rest of the time practicing and sleeping deeply.
Just because Zhu Huiqin was there, all the original plans to suppress bandits and demons were naturally cancelled.
Six days later, on a high mountain.
Qin Ziling and Zhu Huiqin stood side by side, overlooking the vast plain below.
Rivers and roads crisscross the land, and a tall city rises from the ground in the distance. The houses inside are lined up in rows, and people can be faintly seen moving in the city like dense ants.
"After descending this mountain, we reach the boundary of Taiyue Prefecture! That is Shangyang County on the border between Taiyue Prefecture and Qingjun Prefecture." Zhu Huiqin said, pointing to the tall city far down the mountain.
"A city in a county is so tall and prosperous!" Qin Ziling said with a hint of surprise on his face.
"That's for sure. Taiyue Prefecture has crisscrossed rivers, fertile land, and outstanding people. It is one of the best among the twelve medium-sized prefectures in Da Qi. There are many strong people. Naturally, Xiyun Prefecture cannot compare with it. Even if Qingjun Prefecture is compared with Taiyue Prefecture is far behind." Zhu Huiqin said.
"Then the four major states and capitals will be much more prosperous and powerful?" Qin Ziling's eyes showed a trace of expectation and yearning.
"Yes, there are thirty-nine states in Da Qi. Most of the real resources and national power are concentrated in the four major Shangzhou and the capital. Whoever controls the four major Shangzhou and the capital basically controls Da Qi. .
So despite the fact that Wang Lang of Nanding Prefecture is making a lot of noise, in fact, this cannot shake the foundation of Da Qi at all. The reason why the imperial court did not send troops to quell the rebellion was because the emperor was old and the princes and other forces were all fighting for power, so they could not really free up their hands to quell the rebellion.
Another reason is that there are powerful forces behind Wang Lang, and the court also has scruples, fearing that one move could affect the whole body. The best way is for both sides to stand still behind the scenes, and let the pawns in the front charge into the battle to decide the outcome. Zhu Huiqin said.
