Although it was dark, it was obvious from the neat arrangement of torches that this was a well-trained team, and it was definitely not a victim who fled from the city. Besides, it was cold and cold, leaving the city was simply seeking death.
Emperor Qiankun was seriously affected by disasters and was the time when people were needed the most. At this time, a team of tens of thousands of people left the city, so it was no wonder that the old man had a question.
"Maybe it's the goods that went out to transport disaster relief!" Jiang Xingchen didn't care and answered casually.
"Impossible. The road is difficult now. Even if there is goods, it is still a railway line. It will not be transported in such a short time when taking ordinary roads. Even if there is really goods coming, there is no need to send more than 10,000 people to pick them up in the middle of the night!" The old man felt the more he said it, and he became more curious.
"I said old guy, we have to rush to solve the problem of Sizhou Island. You don't care what they do, and it won't affect us. Don't make trouble if you have nothing to do?" Jiang Xingchen hated the old man's curiosity.
But he forgot that the old man also had a temper, and was the one who could not take it and retreat. If Jiang Xingchen ignored him, the old man might not stick to it. As a result, as soon as this sentence was said, the old man's temper suddenly came up. What do I mean if I have nothing to do? No, I have to see what these people are going to do.
"How long can it take to turn a corner? Otherwise, I'll go and see it, you go first!" The old man said angrily.
Jiang Xingchen was speechless. Is this a turn? Do you know where the group of people below are going to go? If they walk for three or five days?
"Boy, why do you know that it's okay to have something to do with us? As soon as you finished talking with the emperor, this team was sent out. Don't you think it's too coincidental?" The old man said again. He knew that Jiang Xingchen was also a stubborn temper, and might really throw him away.
When the old man said this, Jiang Xingchen frowned. Time was indeed too coincidental. But he couldn't think of anything that the emperor would do that was unfavorable to him. Isn't it just to ensure the project of the big railway? It has nothing to do with sending people out.
"Let's do it, let's stay overnight. If nothing is found, let's leave and quickly remove the overseas Bobbitworms!" Jiang Xingchen said at last.
"Okay! One night is one night!" The old man laughed. It was really not easy to make the little bastard nod.
Pink followed steadily above the team below, and the old man muttered excitedly: "Boy, look at how fast they are, you must have some important actions!"
"Yeah!" Jiang Xingchen responded, covered his head and face with a cotton coat, and tried to shrink his body into pink and soft fluff. In such weather, he had no intention of chatting with the old man, it was too cold.
The team kept walking northwest for a long time and finally stopped. The old man jumped up excitedly: "Haha, let me say that it will definitely not be far from the imperial capital."
"You can't be afraid that you can hear it!" Jiang Xingchen slapped the old man and looked down from the pink wings. He saw a large area of ruins reflected by the torch, which seemed to be a village destroyed by an earthquake. Now this team of ten thousand people surrounded the entire village.
"It's the Imperial Guard!" Many torches were lit up, and the people in the team could see clearly the clothes. The old man recognized the identity of the team.
"Look, what I said, there must be something big!" The old man's eyes lit up with excitement.
Jiang Xingchen did not refute this time and sent the Imperial Guards to a small village on the edge of the imperial capital. It would be strange if there was nothing important.
"Boy, what do you think they are doing here?" the old man asked quietly.
"Shh! Look carefully!" Jiang Xingchen waved his hand and stared at the bottom. He saw the imperial guards below starting to build tents.
"Hey! Why did they have two layers of layout? They are surrounded by the ruins!" The old man said strangely as he looked at the arrangement of the imperial guards.
"This is not simple. It is divided into two layers of defense. The inner layer must be a very important position, perhaps it is their purpose!" Jiang Xingchen said.
The old man shook his head: "But there are ruins inside, nothing is waiting!"
As he was talking, dozens of black shadows appeared in his sight, stopped in the middle of the inner layer surrounded by the imperial guards, and stood in a circle.
"Shadow Guard! The Emperor actually sent out the Shadow Guard!" The old man exclaimed in a low voice.
Jiang Xingchen stared at the bottom and saw several of the men in black pulling around the ruins. A large piece of brown cloth was uncovered, revealing a huge hole that was more than twenty meters long and five meters wide, as if a huge gap had been cut on the ground.
"I understand. This gap was exposed by an earthquake. The emperor sent someone to come after he discovered it. There must be treasures inside!" The old man said suddenly.
"Okay, I know what's going on, let's go!" Jiang Xingchen breathed slowly. No matter what was inside, it was the emperor's. He had seen good things before, so he didn't need to be jealous.
"Boy, don't you want to know what's inside?" the old man said hurriedly.
"There is nothing that is not ours. You can't start robbing it!" Jiang Xingchen said lightly.
"Who said he wanted to rob it, but let's take a look at the boss. There is no need to fight with them. Don't you have the ability to investigate? Let's see how much effort it can take!" said the old man.
"Okay!" Jiang Xingchen thought about it, so he nodded and agreed, letting Pink fly outside the ruins and find a hidden place to land. Then he moved the material exploration array, and a wisp of energy penetrated into the ground, heading straight to the direction of the gap.
"Boy, please take a closer look. Don't turn around and talk about something to fool me!" The old man talked in Jiang Xingchen's ear.
Jiang Xingchen said angrily: "If you make trouble again, I will leave now!"
"No, don't, keep going, I won't talk anymore!" The old man hurriedly shut up.
Jiang Xingchen continued to explore, and his relaxed expression disappeared soon, and was replaced by an extremely solemn one.
"Boy, what did you find? Why did you look like this?" The old man asked in a low voice when he saw Jiang Xingchen's expression was wrong.
Jiang Xingchen did not answer and continued to investigate. After a long time, he let out a long breath of white breath.
"Boy, what treasure did you find? You were so serious just now. Is there a lot of mechanisms inside?" the old man asked impatiently.
"Under the gap is a large underground palace. There are some treasures inside, but they can't be said to be very expensive! There is no mechanism!" Jiang Xingchen replied.
"Impossible, you fool me!" The old man looked at Jiang Xingchen with extreme suspicion and asked, "If nothing is not as serious as you just now?"
Jiang Xingchen shook his head and said, "Who said nothing is gone! There are not many treasures in the underground palace, but there are many corpses!"
"What?" The old man's eyes widened in an instant. (~^~)
