"Everything happened for a reason. You are innocent. Get up!"
Li Siyuan had no intention of blaming the Dragon Guard Commander.
"Thank you, Master Emperor!"
The Dragon Guard Commander stood up.
Standing aside respectfully.
Li Siyuan didn't look at the Dragon Guard Commander. He turned around and frowned in thought. The residents of Qingyang Town, the Tiger Army, and Zhou Jing had all mysteriously disappeared...
Li Siyuan's intuition told him that this matter was strange and definitely not that simple!
Weird as it is.
What needs to be done must be done.
Zhou Jing is his disciple and the new emperor of the Great Zhou Kingdom. He can't just sit back and watch.
It was only right and reasonable for him to go and find out the truth.
"lead the way."
The leader of the Dragon Guards was overjoyed to hear this.
Lead the way without hesitation.
Li Siyuan followed closely behind the leader of the Dragon Guards, left the palace, and then quickly left the city, riding non-stop to Qingyang Town, thirty miles away.
Li Siyuan was accompanied by not only the leader of the Dragon Guards, but also a team of fully-equipped Dragon Guards, a group of a hundred people, which was very powerful and impressive.
Thirty miles.
We hurried as fast as we could and arrived in no time.
When Li Siyuan and his group appeared outside Qingyang Town, the sun was setting in the west but had not yet completely gone down.
The group stood outside Qingyang Town and did not rush into the town rashly.
The streets paved with blue bricks extend from the east to the west of the town.
Wooden houses are scattered on both sides of the street.
The town is not big, with only seven or eight thousand residents.
At this time of year in the past, the scene of smoke rising from the town and adults standing on the street calling their children to eat is no longer visible, replaced by a dead silence!
Apart from the sharp sound of the wind that sounded like crying, even the chirping of insects and birds in the town was completely silent.
The dead silence is terrifying!
There is a muddy path outside the town that leads to the imperial city.
On both sides of the road are endless green wheat fields.
At the junction of the town and the trail, there grows a huge mulberry tree that requires several people to hug.
It was late autumn now.
It’s a little cool!
Everything withers.
The trees withered.
But the large mulberry tree was unusually green; not only was it a sea of emerald green, but deep red mulberries the size of eyeballs dangled from its branches. A large bump bulged from the trunk and bifurcation, creating a strange and eerie feeling.
Li Siyuan stood on the muddy path, with his hands behind his back, looking calmly at the town.
He looked at the big mulberry tree carefully for a moment, but found nothing strange.
Maybe it's just a strange mulberry tree...
Li Siyuan withdrew his gaze and thought to himself.
Immediately...
He looked at the sun that was about to set and knew that it was not appropriate to enter Qingyang Town at this time, but Zhou Jing had been missing for a day. If he found her one minute later, she would be in more danger.
"Enter the town."
Li Siyuan waved his hand,
He led the troops into the town.
A group of dragon guards followed closely behind.
After everyone entered the town.
A cold wind suddenly blew.
On the bluestone streets, big red lanterns rolled in the wind, making a gurgling sound...
Except for Li Siyuan, everyone shuddered involuntarily.
"It's getting colder!"
Someone muttered.
He tightened his clothes.
Li Siyuan couldn't help but frown.
"Walk."
With his order, the group gradually went deeper into the town.
As soon as the group left, a thick fog suddenly appeared outside the town.
Muddy paths, fields...
Blocked by the fog, it disappeared!
The big mulberry tree in front of the town was moving without wind, making a rustling sound!
The huge lump at the trunk and fork squirmed, as if something was trying to squeeze out...
Li Siyuan frowned.
His expression gradually became serious.
This was the first time he encountered such a strange thing.
"Playing tricks!"
Li Siyuan snorted coldly.
With a wave of his hand, a burst of energy roared out, and with a bang, wood chips flew everywhere, and the locked wooden door of the attic next to the street was directly shattered into pieces.
"Send someone in to take a look."
Li Siyuan gave instructions to the Dragon Guard Commander.
"Go in and take a look."
The Dragon Guard Commander pointed at someone and gave an order.
The dragon guard who was pointed at did not dare to refuse. He put his hand on the hilt of the knife and slowly walked into the dimly lit attic.
As the dragon guard entered the attic, his figure was gradually swallowed by the darkness.
The footsteps gradually disappeared!
Time passes by little by little.
Half a cup of tea had passed since the dragon guard entered the attic, but he still hadn't come out.
The silence in the attic was terrifying!
As the dragon guard still didn't come out of the attic, the people waiting on the street began to feel uneasy.
If Li Siyuan hadn't been here, there would have been chaos.
The Dragon Guard Commander's scalp was tingling. He gritted his teeth and pointed at two capable men beside him, saying, "You two go in together. If you find the enemy, shout for help."
The two capable men looked at each other, nodded at the same time, and went into the attic together.
Same as the first time.
The figures of the two were gradually swallowed by the darkness.
And then, nothing happened.
The two of them entered the attic together, as if a stone had sunk into the sea, without even a ripple being caused.
"Boom~"
The fear in everyone's hearts exploded.
His face showed panic.
The Dragon Guard Commander's face also turned ashen.
His eyes fell on the men beside him, and just as he was about to give another order, Li Siyuan's voice rang out.
