Daqian Night Emperor

Chapter 131: What I see is hell! (asking for monthly tickets)

The next day, in the eastern suburbs of Kyoto.

"drive!"

"drive!"

On the official road called "Beiguan Road", several fine horses galloped far ahead.

When they arrived at a place more than 160 miles away from Kyoto City, the man sitting on the leading horse suddenly raised his hand and waved: "Stop!"

Zhao Guanxiang got off his horse, and behind him were two little dwarfs.

The two dwarfs looked like children of only four or five years old, with short limbs and huge heads.

The most horrifying thing is that the child has the body of a middle-aged man but the head of a middle-aged man. One has a white beard that reaches his waist, and the other has a full beard.

Two big-headed dolls jumped off the horses and came to Zhao Guanxiang's side, one on the left and one on the right.

Zhao Guanxiang put his hand on the hilt of the official sword at his waist and looked around.

But in his opinion, this place was no different from the place he had just passed by, and he couldn't see anything wrong.

He couldn't help but ask doubtfully: "Two priests, are you sure it's here?"

The big-headed kid with a full beard took out a piece of cloth from his arms, put it to his nose and sniffed it, then raised his head and sniffed it again, nodded and said, "I smell the scent of that woman, it's especially strong here... She must have fought with someone here and is sweating."

The big-headed doll with a white beard was lying on the ground with his ear close to his ear: "It's right here. I heard the sound of fighting here three days ago."

Zhao Guanxiang watched from the side and was amazed.

Although he is Zhao Qi'an's adopted son, he knows very little about his adoptive father's mysterious "Sacrificial Temple".

He only knew that the memorial hall was not in Kyoto City, but in the "White Deer Academy" outside the western suburbs of Kyoto. No one was allowed to enter unless they had a token from Zhao Qi'an.

So Zhao Guanxiang grew up without knowing who the priests were in the Worship Court. He only knew that Dean An was the biggest priest in the Worship Court.

In addition, the one I am more familiar with is the old eunuch Wei. I have met him several times at my third sister's place. He is one of her teachers.

The pair of "big-headed babies" in front of him were two worshippers that Zhao Guanxiang had never seen before.

These two priests were not very strong due to their congenital physical deformities. I'm afraid any strong farmer would be stronger than them.

But the two priests have a very strange innate magical power.

The one with white beard could hear the noise here three days ago.

The other bearded priest was able to smell all remaining odors within three days.

Zhao Guanxiang didn't know their names, so he could only call the former "Heaven Listening" and the latter "Earth Hearing" based on their innate magical powers.

Following the smell in the air, the ground-smelling worshiper circled around a few times, then pointed in a direction and tugged at Zhao Guanxiang's trouser leg: "Take me on the horse and go over there."

Zhao Guanxiang carried him to the horse, and then carried Tianting Gongfeng to the horse, then he mounted the horse himself and raised the whip: "Go!"

Changing direction, the group rode their horses off the official road, walked through the overgrown wilderness, and headed towards the woods.

More than half an hour passed.

When the local worshipper called for a stop again, everyone stopped again.

This time, even without him saying anything, several people saw a burnt-out bonfire under a tree not far away.

Someone must have burned something here. Although it was covered with sand again, the bare ground was out of place with the surrounding weeds. Blackened weeds could be seen on the edge.

Zhao Guanxiang dismounted, took off his official sword, and poked the bare ground with the scabbard.

The soft sand was easily inserted into the scabbard, and the burnt ashes could be seen by just turning it over casually. Zhao Guanxiang called two owl guards to dig up the place.

Soon, some unburned wood debris were turned out, and based on the shaft and wheel hub, it was confirmed that this was originally a cart.

Then, under the guidance of the local worshiper, they found a place and dug out several bodies.

The body had been burned, the face was completely destroyed, and there was no clothing, so no useful clues could be found.

But Zhao Guanxiang could guess that these people must be from the Gao family.

In any case, being able to find the place where Jiang Liuer was attacked is a good start.

Zhao Guanxiang calculated the time and concluded that Jiang Liuer was attacked about two or three days after she set out on the journey.

As a woman, she could certainly rely on dry food to eat on the road, but she would still find an inn to stay at night.

There are many post stations and inns along the Beiguan Road. If we check them one by one and try to hide it from the public, it would be wishful thinking and it will definitely not be hidden from the eyes and ears of those who are interested.

Fortunately, he borrowed two priests, "Tian Ting" and "Di Wen", from his adoptive father to help, otherwise things would have been quite tricky.

Zhao Guanxiang looked at Di Wen Gong Feng, and his tone became much more polite: "Di Wen Gong Feng, where is the person you are looking for?"

The Diwen worshiper took out the cloth in his hand and sniffed it, shaking his head for a while: "Oh my, the smell is much weaker here. The person you are looking for may have been put into a car, a barrel or something like that."

Zhao Guanxiang's heart suddenly rose to his throat: "Then... can we still find it?"

"It's hard to say, let me try..."

As the two were mumbling, the Tianting worshiper beside them twisted his white beard and said angrily, "You might as well ask me instead of asking him. You are so rude, kid. Do you think I am weaker than Diwen?"

Zhao Guanxiang was stunned and said quickly: "No, no, can Tianting Gongfeng find it?"

"Hmph, why not."

Tianting worshipper lay on the ground, with his ears pressed to the ground and his butt sticking out, and walked around the area in a weird way.

After a while, he stood up and pointed in a direction: "It went over there!"

……

In this way, Zhao Guanxiang and his men spent the whole day running around the eastern suburbs of Kyoto.

Just when he was about to find the whereabouts of the person, he suddenly shouted to stop the team: "Stop!"

Tian Ting, the worshiper, said in dissatisfaction, "Why stop? I feel like we are not far from here."

The Earthly Worshiper raised his head and sniffed the air: "What is ahead? I smell a strong scent of blood... Hundreds of warriors? And a celestial warrior? What kind of place is so heavily guarded?"

Zhao Guanxiang drove his horse forward and came to a high place on a slope, looking into the distance.

In a canyon, one could vaguely see a large farm with magnificent buildings. Hidden in the wilderness outside Beijing, it was like a paradise on earth.

He knew where that was.

That is...Yifenghuangzhuang!
This was also the place where Zhao Guanxiang’s investigation into the Gao family’s “trafficking of innocent people case” a few months ago ended up being interrupted!

For some powerful people in Beijing, this place is undoubtedly a paradise-like place of enjoyment.

But to Zhao Guanxiang, this beautiful villa...everything he saw was hell!

I have only updated twice in the past two days. Sorry, sorry. A few days ago, the village asked me to get some information. As a result, I copied four or five thousand words by hand. When I handed it in, they told me that it was not this.

I'm already red-hot, and I have to rewrite a 4,000-5,000-word article! I can't finish copying it in an afternoon, damn!

Everyone forgive me, kowtow! orz
Finally, I would like to ask for monthly tickets. This month, it is on the new book monthly ticket list, so monthly tickets are really important to this book. If you have extra monthly tickets, I hope you can actively support it orz
