Chapter 112 Edge of Tomorrow



Zhang Mingtu knew that Ruihai was about to take action.

But this was none of his business. Ruihai did not come to see him, the acting commander-in-chief of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, so he sent a message to the Embroidered Uniform Guard and asked Zhang Mingtu to pass it on, suggesting that they meet each other if they were free in the future.

Yes, it was sent to Xue Cheng.

Zhang Mingtu didn't figure it out, but he didn't think too much about it. Instead, he was happy to have some free time, so he simply took advantage of this time to slack off. He just reminded his subordinates: Don't mess around recently.

As for whether his subordinates listened or not, Zhang Mingtu didn't care. He had already given the advice, and if Ruihai really killed him, he wouldn't say anything more.

Zhang Mingtu was busy investigating another matter that not many people paid attention to - the Japanese pirates.

Daxia has enjoyed peace for so long that most people have forgotten about the war.

Even many people of Zhang Mingtu's generation thought that they would never encounter war in their lifetime.

By the time Zhang Mingtu realized it, the war was not far away.

Overseas alien races are eyeing the coastal areas covetously. They have begun to investigate the situation there and establish their forces in the south of the Yangtze River. In more than ten years, they will form a force that will spread like wildfire and sweep across thousands of miles.

The northern tribes have never given up the fight for the fertile land of Daxia. There have been wars since the founding of Daxia, and they have never stopped.

At the most critical moment, large tracts of land in the north fell, and even the south was oppressed. This led to the migration of the elite to the south, where northern families collectively migrated to the south, resulting in the large-scale development of the south.

Daxia was established for more than 800 years, but it was not always peaceful and stable. It was almost destroyed several times during times of crisis.

Zhang Mingtu also knew about all of this, so he didn't dare to be careless about the future situation.

Zhang Mingtu had found a special rune unique to the Japanese pirates in the underground river. He had not dared to be negligent for several days and had been investigating openly and secretly in an attempt to find more clues.

Unfortunately, apart from learning from Wang Mazi that the Liang Chuan Gang once used a communication rune to summon demons and seek their protection, there was no other gain.

That special demon rune was transformed and called the protective amulet of the God of Rivers.

But beyond that, there haven't been many more effective discoveries.

However, Zhang Mingtu was not discouraged, after all, he had many opportunities.

The Book of Life and Death in my mind is floating quietly, emitting a bright light.

The last font above also dimmed at this time.

Zhang Mingtu paused for a moment, but did not immediately flip through the Book of Life and Death.

Instead, carefully plan your next actions in your mind.

He discovered that if he could consciously control it, he could partially influence his brothers' future adventures.

Of course, all of this must come from one's heart. If one's nature goes against one's will and one wants to bully the people, run rampant in the countryside, and become the biggest villain, future brothers are unlikely to do it.

But after thinking about it, Zhang Mingtu didn't find any targets that were too big or too many.

The proposed matter came to an end soon, and the demons in the underground river were also suppressed. As for the future outbreak of the Japanese pirate rebellion, there were still more than ten years left, which gave Zhang Mingtu plenty of time to enjoy his life slowly.

When I thought of this picture of Tibetans, I was inexplicably stunned for a moment and felt a little uncomfortable.

After coming to this world and solving the mystery in the womb, he seemed to have been trying to move forward and felt oppressed all the time.

Any slight improvement to some artifacts would attract the covetousness of other families, leading to the downfall of the Zhang family. Any attempt to change the surrounding environment and improve the moral bottom line might even lead to the destruction of the family.

Now that there is not much pressure, Zhang Mingtu is not quite able to enjoy life.

"Since there's no goal, then don't force it. Focus on investigating the Japanese pirates. As for the rest, let him develop freely."

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Mingtu smiled with relief.

As his mind became clear, the sound of flipping pages rang out in his mind again.

Zhang Mingtu looked at the cover again and found that this time the cover was a little strange. The cover on the left was a peaceful and harmonious Jianyi. In front of the Fulai Inn, Zhang Mingtu was smiling and the one-armed old man Lazy Sheep was distributing mutton soup.

The right half of the cover shows a brutal battlefield, with the ground stained red with blood, broken flags, countless broken ice blades, fallen corpses, and scavenger birds circling in the sky, forming an extremely cruel and terrifying picture.

Zhang Mingtu is also in the picture, covered in blood and with a haggard look in his eyes.

The cover also gradually revealed the title of the book - "Edge of Tomorrow"

I thought I was doing well enough, but in reality I was still stuck in the same place.

I had no idea what kind of enemy I was facing.

Zhang Mingtu sensed something was wrong when he saw the cover, and his heart sank when he saw the beginning.

I thought this time it would usher in a more peaceful development, but judging from the cover and introduction, this time may be even more cruel than before.

Calming down, Zhang Mingtu continued to read.

After completing the training, Xue Cheng returned to Jianyi and had a very brief meeting with Ruihai, but they both seemed to have misunderstood something.

After we met, Xue Cheng looked gloomy and depressed for several days. I couldn't figure out the reason.

I never paid too much attention to such trivial matters. With my detailed investigation report and the subsequent support of the Jinyiwei, Jianyi quickly cleaned up the Wang and Li families and all the crimes committed that year. Everything was led by Ruihai.

I was promoted from acting general flag to real general flag, and I thought that a relatively peaceful period would follow.

As a result, when he went to the county government office to meet with the top officials from all over Jianyi, something was not right.

I found a demon rune in the county magistrate's office. It was a rune from the Japanese pirates. It was hung in a corner of the office. I took a second look at it.

When I went to the county magistrate's office for the second time, the demon rune hanging in the corner had disappeared.

Instead of feeling safe, I felt something was wrong deep down.

At night, people in the Zhenyuan realm were wandering outside my house.

The Dragon and Tiger External Pill and my divine sense gave simultaneous warnings, but when I went out to explore, I didn't find any human figures.

There was no evidence, but I immediately connected this inexplicable situation with the demonic runes that the county magistrate had placed in the county government office.

He must know something, and I must have revealed it when I met with the top figures in Jianyi last round.

There must be something wrong!

The previous county magistrate had been thrown into prison during the Ruihai raid, and the new county magistrate should have no connection with the previous one.

But for some reason, when I was investigating secretly, I found that the two seemed to have the same expression and posture. They even had a habitual action, they liked to touch their chins when thinking.

Maybe I'm overthinking it.
