Chapter 171: Ye Chen's actions
Late at night, the main hall of the Zhao State Palace.
A straight figure stood up, wearing a dragon robe, but looked sad, his fists clenched in his sleeves and turned white, and his grief was mixed with helplessness.
This person is the Emperor of Zhao State and Zhao Yu.
"Your Majesty, I will do my best." In front of Zhao Yu, a middle-aged man in armor knelt on one knee. "A hundred thousand troops swept through a hundred miles of radius, but no trace of those people was found."
"This is not your fault." Zhao Yu took a deep breath, "Those people should not be mortals. Even the national magistrates were killed. It would be in vain for the mortal army to go."
As soon as Zhao Yu finished speaking, a ghostly figure came like the wind and appeared in front of the two of them.
Needless to say, this person is Ye Chen who sneaked into the palace.
"You..." Zhao Yu's eyes narrowed slightly.
"Who are you?" On the side, the man in armor instantly pulled out the long sword at his waist and blocked Zhao Yu.
Ye Chen didn't say anything, but took out a token. The token was surrounded by spiritual energy, and the words "Hengyue" were engraved on it.
Seeing Hengyue's token, Zhao Yu and the middle-aged man in armor changed their expressions and saluted respectfully, "I have seen Hengyue's Supreme Immortal."
"I'm not a fairy." Ye Chen said, and after receiving the Hengyue token, he never took off his head and black robe.
"I would like to ask the immortal to save my people from Zhao State." Zhao Yu seemed too excited and knelt in front of Ye Chen with a bang. He was the lord of the mortal kingdom, but in front of Ye Chen, he was just a weak mortal.
"I will find out the real murderer." Ye Chen used a soft force to pull Zhao Yu off the ground, and then asked, "Where is your national teacher?"
The national teacher mentioned by Ye Chen is also a member of Hengyue Sect. Each sect will send a disciple to be a national teacher in the mortal kingdom. Their cultivation is not high, but in the eyes of these mortals, they are supreme beings.
On the side, the middle-aged man in armor had already walked over with a jade box, but there was a blood-stained Taoist robe on the Taoist robe. The word "Hengyue" was clearly written on it.
Seeing this, Ye Chen frowned suddenly, looked at Zhao Yu and the others, and said in a deep voice, "Your request did not say that my disciple sent to Zhao State by Hengyue had died of a life of death."
"The Supreme Immortals' Ming Ji." Zhao Yu was so nervous. " Yesterday, the national magistrate went out for inspection and had never returned. We sent people to search for it. But when we found the national magistrate, only this Taoist robe was left."
Ye Chen didn't say anything, thinking that the National Master of Zhao might have discovered something, but because of his lack of strength, he not only did not subdue the evil forces, but instead became a dead soul under the knife, leaving only a blood-stained Taoist robe.
Thinking of this in his heart, Ye Chen had already gently picked up the blood-stained Taoist robe, and his eyes became bright and dark.
"The cultivation level of the Human Yuan Realm is only one Taoist robe left." Ye Chen's thoughts flew around, touched his chin, and analyzed in his heart.
"So, that evil force, at least someone with the cultivation level of the Human Yuan Realm, or perhaps the cultivation level of the True Yang Realm, or even the Spirit Void Realm, it is better not to be the Empress Realm."
While thinking in his heart, Ye Chen had already put the blood-stained Taoist robe in front of his nose and sniffed it gently. The Taoist robe had a strong bloody smell, but under the strong bloody smell, there was a very sensitive smell.
"The fragrance of elixir."
"It should be the alchemist who took action!" Ye Chen narrowed his eyes slightly. As an alchemist, he was very sensitive to the smell of pills, and there was a faint smell of medicine on the Taoist robe in his hand.
Putting down the blood-stained Taoist robe in his hand, Ye Chen fell into deep thought again.
"Is it necessary to take them to refine elixirs only?" Ye Chen thought of an evil alchemy method that Xu Fu once said, which was to require children over one year old to be used as medicine.
After a long time, Ye Chen didn't say anything again.
On the side, Zhao Yu and the middle-aged man in armor stood there quietly, not daring to make a sound.
After all, Zhao Yu broke the silence with one sentence, "Supreme immortal, have you ever found any clues?"
"Get the map of Zhao State." Ye Chen said.
Soon, the middle-aged man in armor hurriedly took out a huge map from his arms, and then hung it on the wall as Ye Chen told him.
Ye Chen stepped forward and quietly stared at the map of Zhao State. The dozens of places he looked at were all villages that had been slaughtered in recent days. Those villages were not very far apart, and a few were still next to each other.
After a long time, Ye Chen withdrew his gaze from the map, looked at the middle-aged man in armor beside him, and asked, "Are you a general?"
"Report to the Supreme Immortal, the last general Qin Xiong is the tiger-powered general of Zhao State." The middle-aged man in armor said respectfully.
"Then talk about this from the perspective of you as a general."
Although Qin Xiong was stunned, he took a deep breath and came to the map, pointing out several villages where the tragedy occurred, and said, "From the location and location of the tragedy, the people who took action were slaughtered from south to north, one village next to another. Obviously, they believed that they were powerful, so they were unscrupulous."
"Continue." Ye Chen spoke lightly.
Qin Xiong nodded and then pointed out several places, "If we look at them according to the route of slaughtering the village, the next one should be these villages. If the immortal takes action, these places must be the top priority."
"When did more than a dozen villages be massacred?" Ye Chen looked at Qin Xiong.
"Zhongshi." Qin Xiong said very surely, "According to the last guess, the evil forces seemed to only appear at night."
"The bloody clothes only appear at midnight." Ye Chen touched his chin, and his eyes flashed with deep eyes, "It's not a blood witch!"
Ye Chen thought of a strange race, which was a branch of the ancient witch clan. It was called evil spirit by the righteous monks. It has always appeared at midnight, sucking human blood to make a living, and its methods are extremely cruel.
"But what's going on with the smell of the elixir on that robe?" Ye Chen pondered to himself, "Can it be that a high-level alchemist raises a blood witch in captivity? If so, then this matter will be much more complicated."
After pondering for a long time, Ye Chen turned around and looked at Zhao Yu, "Three things, first, before midnight, the villagers within a radius of fifty miles were moved out as fast as possible with the villages pointed out by General Qin; second, withdraw the Zhao ** team sent out to search, and those people may be monks, and you will die in vain. Third, before midnight, be sure to sprinkle fire in each village, the more the better."
"I'll do it now." Qin Xiong was thunderous and fierce, and was about to walk outside immediately. He just took a step, turned around and looked at Ye Chen awkwardly, "Well, I dare to ask the immortal, what is Huo Lin."
"Huo Lin is the powder extracted from the Yanjue Stone in your mouth. This kind of thing and even the yang thing can resist evil spirits."
"Thank you, the immortal." Qin Xiong bowed and turned around and walked out of the Golden Palace.
After Qin Xiong left, Ye Chen stood quietly on the huge map again, and his deep eyes filled every mountain, river on the huge map, as if he was looking for something.
"Shangxian, are you here alone?" Zhao Yu asked tentatively behind him.
"Are you afraid that I can't handle those evil forces?" Ye Chen said lightly.
Suddenly, Zhao Yu was panicked, "I...I don't mean that."
Ye Chen smiled, but did not answer, and his eyes were still sweeping around the map of Zhao.
After all, his eyes were frozen in a mountain, and there was still a flash of light in his eyes, because the terrain around the mountain was very wonderful, surrounded by three mountains and one mountain stood in the center. Such a terrain was the strange land of the Three Mountains, and perhaps the earth veins would be breeding.
The so-called earth vein is a kind of earth spiritual vein. It absorbs the essence of the earth. It can prolong life and prolong life. When a monk is at the top, he will definitely achieve twice the result with half the effort in practicing.
Among the nearly 100 mortal countries of the Great Chu, the territory of Zhao State was not very large, but there were many mountains that stretched out. Ye Chen was not surprised that the three mountains could appear.
Of course, it was not unreasonable for him to stare at the strange land of the Three Mountains, because it was a good place to refine alchemy. It absorbed the essence of the sun and the moon, and the qi sources of the earth's veins. The elixirs refined must be of the best grade.
"If there is really a mysterious alchemist who controls the blood witch to commit a crime, then the mysterious land of the Three Yues will definitely have a secret." Ye Chen touched his chin.
"Super Immortal?" Zhao Yu saw Ye Chen muttering alone and shouted tentatively.
"Say it if you have something to do."
"I have already ordered a banquet to entertain the immortals, and I also asked the immortals to move to Fengluan Pavilion."
"I don't have time to eat now." Ye Chen turned around and walked outside. When he passed by Zhao Yu, he gently patted his shoulder and smiled, "I worry about the country and the people. You are a good emperor, so you don't have to eat. It's important to save people."
As he said that, Ye Chen had already walked out of the Golden Palace.
