The blood dragon guard found some objects and letters from the second sister Qu's body.
There are also human skin masks.
Judging from the objects, it seems that this woman is not the real Second Sister Qu, but a notorious female devil who practiced "Caiyuan Dafa".
The female devil calls herself the "Caixia Fairy", and people in the world scornfully call her the "Colorful Whore".
He came from the Demonic Sect [Hehuan Sect] in Mang Kingdom, and later defected from the sect.
He once drained more than a dozen male warriors, causing them to suffer from detachment and death.
But judging from the letterhead, the title of the letter is indeed Second Sister Qu, and the recipient should be one of her disciples.
If you put it this way, it's possible that Second Sister Qu died in the hands of this female devil.
Then for some reason, the devil pretended to be Second Sister Qu and got into the imperial mission team.
As a result, he was killed by a monster.
The reasons behind this are complicated and confusing.
But robbing, killing, and impersonating others is commonplace, and the Blood Dragon Guards don't care at all.
Seeing that there were no more clues about the monster, Yin Shan ordered to rest where he was and wait for the sun to rise before setting off immediately.
Most monsters seem to prefer nocturnal activities.
Regarding this, many powerful forces will have internal records.
In a tense atmosphere, everyone sat around the campfire.
Fortunately, the fog gradually dissipated. Nearly two hours later, the sky was dim and dawn broke.
The remaining nine people quickly set off and left this place.
After traveling all the way south, Yinshan no longer allowed people to camp outdoors, but instead entered villages, towns, and counties to take a short rest.
There were no further accidents on the road, but time was inevitably delayed.
The atmosphere in the team was also quite solemn.
The second son of the Mu family, who had two dead brothers, said nothing from the beginning to the end. He lowered his head and looked gloomy at all times.
Mr. Lu is taciturn, so there is no need to talk.
The Blood Dragon Guard also seemed anxious because a comrade died.
After all, it is different from meeting bandits and bandits.
After witnessing monster killings, the grotesque, despairing and repressed memories will leave a long-lasting uneasiness in the hearts of survivors.
Even warriors with strength above rank five are still so vulnerable in front of monsters.
Several people died in an instant.
Four days later, the nine people finally arrived in Zi County, Xiyue County.
As soon as we entered the county town, the clothes and appearance of the pedestrians on the road were very different from those in Liyang City.
According to the information previously obtained from the Blood Dragon Guard, the local area is controlled by the [Snake Man] from the Nanman tribe.
In addition to the county magistrate, county officials such as county captains and county magistrates are all snake barbarians.
This group of barbarians are generally thin in appearance, with dark complexions, and small snake tattoos can be seen on exposed skin.
Tribal elders, leaders and others often have unique "snake god" paint on their faces.
That is the god worshiped by the Snake Barbarians, and its image is a creature with the head of a snake and the body of a human body.
They claim to be descendants of the snake god and have the ability to control all snakes.
After Nan Yan established the country, he launched many wars with various southern barbarian tribes.
Later, most of the tribes were civilized.
But Snake Man is one of the more unruly ones.
Until thirty years ago, due to excessive casualties, the youth and strength of the clan were less than one-fifth of those before the war.
And gave up hostility and accepted the imperial edict.
Therefore, he was hated by the late emperor.
Although on the surface, like other tribes, Snake Man has obtained the chieftain ritual system.
However, the Snake Barbarian leader only received the title of "Fourth Viscount", and his fiefdom was only less than a hundred miles away in Zi County.
Therefore, Snake Man has always been resentful towards Nanyan officials. They openly submit to it, but secretly there is a lot of friction.
This time when the Blood Dragon Guards entered Zi County, they were reminded in advance by the governor who was directly in charge of the operation to try not to conflict with the snake barbarians.
After Yin Shan led a group of people into the city, they came to a courtyard with three entrances.
The yard seemed to be a prepared place to stay, divided into two parts, the front and back yard, by a wall.
There are seven or eight rooms in total, some of which are larger and divided by partitions.
The kitchen also stores various shelf-stable foods.
Yin Shan went out for a trip and came back half an hour later.
Gather everyone in the main hall and explain the next actions.
"Including us, there are four action teams in Zi County, guarding four different positions.
We are the last one to arrive, and the north of the city is the area we are responsible for. "
Yin Shan spread out a map of Zi County and surrounding areas on the table and pointed at each one with his hand.
"Zixian County has only two city gates, one in the north and one in the east.
If the people of Lingxi Jiuxiao want to sell their stolen goods by replacing the purple jade in the county, they must enter through these two city gates.
Therefore, our task is very heavy. We need someone to keep an eye on the city gate at all times and pay attention to the movements in the city. "
Everyone's expressions changed. When they entered the city, they also noticed the strange expressions of the snake barbarians.
After arresting the Jiu Xiao bandits, it is inevitable that something will happen in the city, so we must be on guard against it.
Yin Shan continued: "I and several other flag officers have passed the Qi, and the brothers will be responsible for the city gate.
There are several businesses selling purple jade in the city, as well as the movements of the snake barbarians. The knights in the world need to keep an eye on them. "
He said this more politely than before.
He also knew that this mission was quite difficult, and in addition, four of the Jianghu people in the team died on the way alone.
I'm afraid that others will give up and then be short of manpower and unable to control the situation.
Getting people in and out of the city gate is the most important task, and there is absolutely no room for error, so it is natural to let the blood dragon guards take charge.
In addition to their martial arts cultivation, they are much better than ordinary Jianghu people in terms of reconnaissance and tracking.
Seeing that everyone had no objections, Yin Shan began to distribute the actions in the city.
These actions have been planned beforehand and will be distributed among several teams after entering the city.
Yin Shan himself has no specific tasks, but moves freely and is responsible for response, reinforcement and supervision.
Next, the destinations of Jiang Ye, the second son of the Mu family, and Mr. Lu were decided by drawing lots.
Jiang Ye opened the label and saw that he was responsible for collecting information at the inns and restaurants in the north of the city and keeping an eye on the movements of Snake Man's senior officials.
The second son of the Mu family and Mr. Lu are responsible for keeping an eye on the jade shops in the north of the city, which are the places where purple jade is sold in Zi County.
Purple jade is also divided into grades.
If it were the highest quality purple jade, a piece the size of a fingertip would be worth a hundred taels of silver.
When Jiu Xiao thieves want to sell their stolen goods, their first choice must be this high-quality purple jade, which is easy to carry.
Therefore, large-scale jade workshops must be key targets.
And then there are the local “shikus,” which are where purple jade is stored in large quantities.
It is usually heavily guarded, not only guarded by strong snake barbarians, but also people with Nanyan faces.
In fact, because purple jade is popular among Nanyan nobles and officials, it has also become quite popular in Jiang State in recent years.
Therefore, purple jade-producing areas like Zi County have a large number of non-snake merchants and some external forces settling there, such as the branch offices of top trading houses.
It was impossible for Snake Man to swallow such a big cake.
Without outsiders to mediate, even if Snake Man digs out purple jade, there will be no market for it.
So all parties are relatively harmonious.
