Nada didn't know who Lu Jing was waiting for, because it seemed that the household registration officer and his wife didn't want to say a word to them anymore.

But Lu Jing was still sitting in the small wine shop outside their door, and he sat there until almost sunset.

During this period, we encountered another sandstorm, and this time the sandstorm arrived two-quarters of an hour earlier than the last time.

Although because of Lu Jing's step forward, there were still no casualties in the city.

But Nada still felt deeply worried.

Because if this continues, for another month at most, the sandstorm may never stop.

However, when she looked at Lu Jing, she seemed to be very calm. After returning from the dust, there was even a bit of joy on his face, and he felt inexplicably relieved.

Lu Jing is now becoming more and more skilled in the business of opening cans.

This time he killed eleven more armored warriors. When he went out in the morning, he asked the female shopkeeper for a small bag to store the black stones he got.

Seeing that the bag was getting heavier and heavier, Lu Jing was in a good mood.

Then he saw the person he was waiting for again, and his mood became better.

Lu Jing asked Nada to pay for the two's drinks, then waited for a while, saw the target breaking up with another person, and then chased after him with the female shopkeeper.

——Kafu, one of the two assistants to the household registration officer Ayub.

Lu Jing and Nada had met Ayub before in his mansion.

Now, Kraft has finished his day's work, walked out of the household registration officer's home, and is about to go home.

But he heard footsteps coming from behind.

He turned around cautiously, and when he saw the appearance of the person clearly, he couldn't help but look surprised.

"Is it you?"

Then he seemed to think of something, shook his head and said, "It's useless. My teacher has a very stubborn temper. Since he doesn't want to talk to you anymore, it's useless even if I try to persuade him."

Nada didn't know what to say when she heard this, so she could only translate it to Lu Jing.

Lu Jing said, "We are not here to find your teacher. When you were in the mansion, your first reaction when you heard that last name seemed to be something you wanted to say, but then when you saw your companion denying it, you also changed your words and denied it. I want to know what you wanted to say at that time."

A look of surprise appeared on Kraft's face after hearing this.

It seemed that he didn't expect that his hesitant gesture at that time could not hide from the eyes of the Eastern man in front of him, but he still seemed very cautious and hesitated.

"It's nothing, I just suddenly thought that I might have seen this surname in some history book before..."

"Are you sure?" Nada asked. Seeing Kraft's eyes flickering, she softened her tone and said, "Kraft, you know our current situation, right? These inexplicable sandstorms are becoming more and more serious. .

"It has seriously affected the lives of people in the city, and if it continues like this, everyone will inevitably die. You are still young and have no family, do you want to die like this?"

Kraft was already hesitating and tangled, but after hearing the last half of Nada's words, his defenses were finally broken through.

However, he did not speak immediately. Instead, he looked around first, and when he saw that no one was paying attention, he added, "I have never heard of this surname before, and there is no family related to this surname in the household registration file, but... …”

"but what?"

"But this reminds me of one thing. Just before the teacher became seriously ill, I knew that he had gone to a house alone. I swear I didn't follow him. I just happened to bump into him wearing a cloak that night and knocking on the door. The front door of a house.

"I'm a little curious because I know that family. It's a man with a little girl. That man is a well-known drunkard. Basically, he drinks all the time, day or night.

"And when he drank too much, he would brag to others, saying that his family was once very powerful and that he was the former king of Malazar Khan. Of course, everyone took his words as a joke.

"Because when he said that, it was usually when he wanted to pay on credit. What I couldn't understand was that my teacher was a person who hated drunkards, and he never wore a cloak when traveling. He kept telling us to do it An upright person, don't hide your head and show your tail.

"He himself is such a person. Basically, the residents of Malazar Khan know him, so when I saw him dressed like this, I almost couldn't believe my eyes. To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that we are together every day, I would Can't recognize him either.

"The teacher stayed in that guy's house for a while, and not long after he left, another blue feather guard entered the house and took the drunkard away."

"Lan Yu guards?" Nada couldn't help interrupting Kafu, "Isn't that the palace guard? Are you sure your eyes are not seeing flowers?"

"My eyesight has always been good. The teacher chose me to be his assistant because of this, and..."

"And what?" Nada asked.

"Those guards should be the financial officer Yazdan's people. I have seen them by Yazdan's side before."

This was a name that surprised Nada. According to Kraft's description, the drunkard was most likely a descendant of the family that originally founded Malazar Khan.

If this is true, doesn't it mean that Yazdan already knew about this matter seven months ago.

And the dark wizard Vulture hadn't even come to Malazar Khan at that time.

So the person who crossed out the last name on the mural and didn't want to be seen by others was also Yazdan. Was he the one behind this sandstorm?

What is his purpose.

Do you want to go one step further and become the city lord of Malazar Khan?

Indeed, because the old city lord blindly believed in the vulture, it had caused dissatisfaction among many people in the city, so there were gradually more and more voices calling on the old city lord to abdicate and make Yazdan the city lord.

This has also made the relationship between the two a little tense recently. Now the old city lord supports Vulture, while Yazdan supports Lu Jing.

If Lu Jing "solves" the crisis after defeating the vulture, Yazdan's prestige will undoubtedly increase greatly, while the old city lord's prestige will take a huge hit.

By then, Yazdan might actually be able to sit in the position of city lord.

But would Yazdan really sacrifice so many people in the city for his own lust for power?

Ma La only felt a sense of confusion.

Then I heard Kraft continue, "The drunkard came back the next day and suddenly became rich. Everyone asked him where his money came from, and he smiled mysteriously and refused to elaborate, but since then , and he no longer boasted about being a descendant of any royal family."

"Where is his home? We want to meet him." Lu Jing said.

But then he saw Kraft shaking his head, "You can't see him anymore."

"Why?" Nada asked.

"Because he died just last night." Kraft said, "You should have heard about it, because Daxia Lu used his heroic act as a bait to save the people in the city, but there was still a person in the sandstorm last night. Because the drunkard didn't have time to get home in time, his mouth and nose were covered by sand and dust, and he suffocated to death. That drunkard was him."
