86. Mysterious Merchant

It can also be seen from Wang Hu's expression that he is completely unaware of these things, unless his acting skills are so high that he has reached this point.

My face was still so calm, without a trace of change.

"And what? I mean how did the ruler of the sand city bewitched by her?"

King Chenliu continued to ask.

"I really don't know the specific situation, but not long after she arrived, I realized the changes of the emperor. He was originally the best among the royal family. He was impeccable in terms of knowledge and character, and he did everything well. However, since the woman came, he has been indifferent to political affairs. He often couldn't see him, and many times, such as the royal family's expenses, military expenses, trade, etc., he rarely asked about things that should have been managed by him personally!"

"The people outside don't know what's going on in the sand city at all."

He shook his head and said.

"That's right!"

Lu Feng also proved on the side: "The equipment that was supposed to be distributed to the guards has not been added or replaced for two consecutive years, and the guards have complained. Also, those caravans who passed by were originally open to the door and traveled freely in Shacheng, but after the woman came, most of the equipment trade was banned, and only basic living supplies and food were allowed to enter and exit Shacheng."

"Then you didn't notice what the emperor himself did?" Raven began to ask questions.

Obviously, he wanted to figure out what exactly made his father change his nature.

"Of course there is. He became taciturn and often muttered to himself in the room alone! Well, he seemed to have some mental problems. I called him in person several times, but he didn't respond! His expression was dazed, as if he had ignored the existence of people around him."

Mr. Su sighed again when he thought of these past events.

"I met him less, but we generals all noticed that his temper had changed. For example, at the defense meeting of the royal city, he made a request to spend a lot of money to build an underground bunker, and he did his own way regardless of the opposition of us!"

"It's weird, right? He wasn't like that before?"

After saying this last sentence, Su Xingtian lowered his head, as if he was trying his best to forget the things that made him unhappy.

The Raven began to meditate, and he began to recall what happened when he was young.

Although he didn't have much impression of most of the things, he still remembered one thing.

He didn't know why he suddenly remembered this. It might be something strange in his subconscious mind.

When he was young, he rarely lived in his father's palace.

Most often, he lives in a house built by the royal family for royal children or crown princes.

Not too far from the city, there is a land owned by the royal family for generations, with forests and a row of buildings, which looks very ancient.

There is also a garden there, and an entrance to a basement covered by a glass house—in fact, it is a refuge left over from the pre-civilization era.

He secretly visited the shelter once when he was very young.

And outside his room there is an old basement entrance, with an emergency access connecting the shelter.

One day, he climbed through the narrow hole and sneaked into the basement.

He was getting deeper and deeper inside, and he was a little scared halfway through

The air was filled with empty, dust and a strong and moldy smell.

It seems that all the equipment and supplies have been transported out, leaving only the wreckage of empty boxes and certain metal parts.

In a passage, from the ceiling to the corner of the wall, he saw some wooden boxes that had turned black and had been completely decayed for many years.

The thick dust on the ground clearly exposed his movements.

But it's very dark inside, and occasionally there is a light that is faintly emitted from somewhere.

Walking down the emergency passage is a slightly complicated road, and you can vaguely see a few slide rails hanging above your head above the hole wall.

But almost all roads will eventually lead to a huge gate, with symbols and numbers on it. At his age, he had to look up to see the numbers on the door clearly.

He had never been in there, because the iron gate had never been opened.

But that day, he did hear some sound inside the door! To be precise, it was the sound of something vibrating. Because there was a pattern to follow, he was sure that it was not noise.

Because he was alone, he soon became timid.

After that, the young raven ran away, and he had never been to that place again. More than ten years have passed, and he has not recalled it until now.

He has been burying these things in his heart and has never mentioned them to anyone.

They have been staying in this big villa for several days.

In the past few days, my dad and the others have already learned about the general situation.

After repeated discussions, some plans were recognized, and everyone made a decision: first get into the city, then send someone to inquire about the information and then make the next plan. The focus was on choosing a house for a wealthy businessman who was very close to Su Xingtian.

Ten fathers' subordinates were assigned to enter the city one after another, hit the front station, and inquire about information.

The rest still pretended to be caravans and escorted the food and other supplies.

For General Lu Feng, they also received benefits from his father.

My father and the others left enough food and other supplies, which were enough for those who fled with the general to persist for a long time.

They are still responsible for responding here, while waiting for news from the city.

Then, Mr. Su and his team continued to set off on the road and drove towards Shacheng!

"What? What did you say just now? Say it to me again!"

General Lu Feng's hand tightly grabbed a spy's shoulder, stretched out his neck full of blue veins and stared at him, his face almost touching the guy's face.

Cold sweat began to appear on the back of his neck, and blood seemed to emerge from his eyes!

He didn't believe what he had just heard.

"Wait! Wait! Let me take a breath-taking-"

The spy looked panicked and pushed away the old man's arm. He supported his legs with his arms, lowered his head and gasped. He ran from dozens of miles away and had no rest all night!

The old general's face froze and soon frowned impatiently.

More than ten seconds passed.

"Well--I saw it with my own eyes! Those corpses must have not been touched yet. Let's figure out what's going on!"

In addition to sweat, the spy's face also had the expression after being extremely frightened.

"How is this possible! How is this possible!! They are all the guards of the Sand City, their weapons? How come so many people died?"

Lu Feng almost spoke with a roar.

His expression could no longer be as calm as usual. A strange fact that he could not believe was in front of him. He had to go and see it!

Suddenly, the tender face of the Sand City officer who came to practice appeared in his mind. After he recognized his face, he seemed to be saying something to him.

However, he was interrupted roughly!

Cold sweat kept oozing out from his forehead, back and other places, and his breathing became disordered and rapid. Obviously, he missed some important information.
