"By the way, Ding Dian, Lord Wang asked us to go to Heishui. Besides investigating our missing colleagues, what else is there?"
Ding Dian smiled faintly through the curtain.
"hehe!"
"There are a lot of rumors going around in Heishui County. After all, it's in Luozhou, and a large number of people from the underworld gather there, which is prone to chaos. Perhaps the Lord also wants you to shock the whole situation!"
Upon hearing this, Wan Zhuliu did not respond.
He was too lazy to listen to these empty words. It seemed that the information given to him by the Black Wind Hall was more accurate. There might really be some treasure in the Xuanyan Lake in Heishui County!
Then, he changed the subject, "What's the situation at Xuanyan Lake?"
This time, Ding Dian didn't say clichés and got serious.
"That was the tomb of a foreign prince from the previous dynasty, the Great Xia Dynasty. This prince seemed to be a Shatuo, living around the time of Emperor Wen of Great Xia. Great Xia's territory wasn't as vast as Great Yan's. It was located around the three states of Xichuan and the four states of the Central Plains. Heishui County was originally outside the Great Wall, and was only incorporated into the territory when Great Yan was founded and established its territories."
"During the Great Xia Dynasty, this land was governed by foreign tribes for only sixty years. Therefore, there are not many documents left by this king, and it is full of mystery. It is said that an immortal appeared nearby, and some related legends are also widely circulated. Our visit this time may be related to this tomb!"
"Immortal?" Wan Zhuliu was a little surprised.
This was the first time he heard such a rumor.
Even though this is an era of powerful military force, the undead are still too outrageous.
Legend has it that Grandmaster Yuan Jing, also known as the One with the Infallible Body, breathes in the Qi of heaven and earth throughout his body, and his lifespan far exceeds that of ordinary people.
However, it is only far beyond the ordinary people, thirty or fifty years beyond, which is also called far beyond, and it is far from being immortal.
Besides, the person who wants to live the most in the world should be the most powerful Emperor Yan.
He didn't even send anyone to Heishui County. This must be nonsense. It must be some other secret, but Ding Dian, this bastard, is protecting his master and doesn't want to tell him.
"You don't tell me anything, and you still want to use my power to do things? You think you can do it!"
He couldn't help but snort in his heart.
"Uh, Ding Dian, I suddenly feel uncomfortable in my chest. Let's rest for a while before leaving!"
"this--"
Ding Dian felt uncomfortable when he heard this.
Wang Wenyun gave him a task, and he must get to Heishui as soon as possible.
I didn't expect Wan Zhuliu to cause trouble again at this time.
But he also estimated that Wan Zhuliu was not pretending. After all, everyone knew about his injury, and he did not dare to force it. Although Wan Zhuliu was only a prison warden, he had the Tianji Tower behind him.
After feeling depressed for a moment, he could only reply, "How about we take a break in front?"
"Why not rest up in the front tonight?"
"this--"
Ding Dian wanted to curse. He didn't understand why the governor wanted the sick patient to go to Heishui. Even if he wanted to use the power of the Black Wind Hall under his command, he could just let him transfer it verbally. Why make so much trouble?
Nowadays, many martial arts masters have gone to Xuanyan Lake in Heishui County. If you go too late, you won’t even have the chance to get some treasures or even drink some soup!
Thinking of this, he could only bite the bullet and say, "My lord, this is really inappropriate. How about I have someone make you a decoction? As a master in the late stage of the Concentration Realm, you have amazing recovery ability and should not be affected!"
"Humph! You sound nice, but I was injured by someone in the Return to Void Realm. You can try it before you say such big words!"
“…”
Ding Dian was also somewhat helpless, "Then what do you want, sir?"
"It's just a case, no rush!" Wan Zhuliu still spoke in a lazy voice.
"No, sir, you made a promise to Lord Wang before you left the city that you couldn't give up halfway!"
"Yes, I did promise. I said I would get to the bottom of this case, but I didn't specify a timeframe. So, if I finish it next year, that would be considered fulfilling my promise, right? Besides, he didn't tell me anything else!"
"you--"
Ding Dian was so angry that he couldn't speak.
He really had no way to deal with Wan Zhuliu. After all, he was the commander of this operation, and the tasks assigned by Wang Wenyun were all given to him privately. Now asking him to command Wan Zhuliu, wouldn't that be rebellion against Tiangang?
"Fuck, Lord Wang is really..."
He could only curse a few times in his heart before slowly saying, "Your Excellency is right. Actually, Lord Wang has another task for you. It's inconvenient for you to go out, so he told his subordinates to convey it to you on the way!"
"Oh? There is such a thing? Then tell me quickly. We can't delay the matter instructed by the prefect!" Wan Zhuliu looked interested and opened the curtain. He looked okay.
Seeing this, Ding Dian knew that he had been fooled.
I was furious, but I couldn't show it.
He forced a smile, "In fact, many forces are dedicated to searching for these tombs, including the Dayan Martial Temple. They are looking for fragments of artifacts, that is, the things that fell after the Demon God Weapon was broken. Many fragments were excavated from the ruins of these tombs.
We heard there was a key fragment of the Demon God Weapon under Xuanyan Lake, so we sent people there several times to check it out!"
"Demon God Soldiers? So that's what they are!!"
Wan Zhuliu raised his hand slightly and grabbed some dried fruit snacks from the side, waving his hand as if listening to a joke, "Go on, go on, what's the use of this demon weapon fragment? It's not complete."
Seeing him like this, Ding Dian was almost furious.
Her eyes were fixed on the snacks he took out from his side, and she wanted to slap them away.
Wan Zhuliu knew he was angry, but he didn't care. Instead, he grabbed a handful and said, "What's wrong? You want it? That's not allowed!"
This is what my wife packed. I didn't want it, but she insisted on giving it to me. You know, she and I are married and have a very good relationship. Eating this can help me ease my longing for her and avoid being bored during the long journey!"
'I know nothing!'
Ding Dian almost yelled out loud, but for the sake of the overall situation, he suppressed his anger again.
"My Lord, please do as you please. I say mine, and you eat yours!"
"After all, these things involve divine weapons, which are the tools of the empire. Naturally, they are of great significance. The Martial Temple will explore their uses. The Martial Temple only needs to retrieve them!"
He didn't go into too much detail, just mentioned it vaguely.
But Wan Zhuliu knew that this thing must have some other purpose, such as reforging a divine weapon? It was all possible.
Then, the two began to walk, asking and answering each other.
Wan Zhuliu mostly asked questions about other things related to the tomb ruins, and Ding Dian answered them one by one, only skipping some more important and special content.
It took a full seven or eight hours, including a half-hour break, for the team to reach Pingyu.
Because the team was so large, only Ding Dian brought a few close followers with him when they entered the city, carrying Wan Zhuliu to the city where the Black Wind Hall was located.
Before they arrived, a group of men in black robes rushed forward and surrounded everyone.
An old man came up and slapped Ding Dian, "You bold villain, you dare to kidnap the master of the Black Wind Hall, you are seeking death!"
