Chapter 266 Could it be that Yan Shen is not dead at all?
"If you are looking for an immortal, I might be able to help." Dadalia, who heard their conversation, suddenly spoke.
Hutao's Humo Staff appeared in her hand again, and she looked at Dadalia coldly, "What do you want to say?"
Dadalia raised his hands to show that he was harmless.
"Don't be so hostile to me. Although the reputation of fools is a bit bad, and [Ms.] also left a very bad impression on you, this really has nothing to do with me."
Paimon crossed his arms unhappily, "It's not just a bad impression!"
Jiang Bai narrowed his eyes and looked at him.
He couldn't tell whether Dadalia's shock at that time was true, but if he wanted to know what they wanted to do, it would be better to listen to what he had to say.
Dadalia took out a few taboo-free talismans and said, "These are the tokens I originally planned to use to meet the Rock King, but they are no longer of use."
"This is... a hundred-no-taboo bag." Zhongli recognized what it was at the first sight.
"Thank you, Mr. Zhongli."
"What is the Barrier of All Taboos?" Paimon scratched his head.
"This is a token given by Emperor Yanwang. With this token, you can go to the mountains to meet the immortals." Zhongli explained.
He looked at Dadalia with a somewhat surprised look on his face, "It's just that it's been too long and this thing should have been lost. I didn't expect you to have so many in your hands."
"I also got it by accident." Dadalia did not explain how he got this thing.
"Can I go find the Immortal with this thing?" Pamon curiously took one.
"Yes." Dadalia nodded, "Liyue was established by the God of Rock and the Immortal with force. Now that the God of Rock is killed, this important matter must be known to the Immortal."
He looked at Sora and Paimon, the two adventurers from the Adventurers Association, and issued a commission, "I wonder if you can go to the mountains to find the immortals of Liyue and tell them the whole story?"
"Why don't you go by yourself?" Sora asked.
Dadalia shrugged helplessly, "You can tell from Hall Master Hu's attitude towards me. If I go, even if I hold this non-taboo pot, the immortals will definitely take action against me."
Hutao snorted but didn't say anything more.
Dadalia continued to add, "Furthermore, you do not belong to any of us, and your stance is naturally neutral. The words you bring to the immortals are also more credible."
After speaking, he paused for a moment, looked at Ning Guang, who was frowning in thought not far away, and narrowed his eyes, not hiding his guess at all.
"Seven Stars sent the Qianyan Army to investigate the crowd of spectators, intending to find the assassin among the crowd. This is obviously unreasonable."
"Can a mortal assassin assassinate the God of War who swept thousands of armies? He never abandoned his divine power... This rough response makes people wonder if she is trying to cover up something..."
What Dadalia said may have been thought of by Jiang Bai a long time ago, but he felt that Dadalia was trying to deflect the conflict.
After all, they doubted him, and he said that she doubted Qixing. This is a sign of pushing the blame.
"Okay, I'll accept this commission." Sora took the 100-year-old paper, but he was in no hurry to set off.
After the matter was said, Dadalia left consciously, as if that was really his purpose.
Looking at the guy's back, Jiang Bai narrowed his eyes and said, "Hall Master, how credible do you think that guy's words are?"
"Half and half."
It is true that Dadalia asked the travelers to find immortals, but his purpose was probably to see Liyue in chaos.
It has been thousands of years since the immortals delegated their power and retired to the mountains and forests. Now when the emperor was killed, how could the immortals remain silent?
At that time, the immortals will definitely start a battle with the Seven Stars for the right to rule. Most of the immortals have bad tempers and are extremely powerful. If you are not careful, they will cause turmoil in Liyue.
As for whether his handwriting was involved in the emperor's murder, we will only know after investigation.
"Then do you think Qixing might be the one behind the emperor's murder?" Jiang Bai asked again.
Hu Tao slowly shook his head, "Impossible. That guy is right in what he said. Mortals are not capable of assassinating the Martial God who swept thousands of armies, at least not the Seven Stars."
As for why Ningguang wanted to seal off the whole place, of course it was to identify the suspicious persons and then interrogate them properly.
As expected, many people in the venue were taken away by Qianyan's army, including Young Master Dadalia.
The Millennium Army finally interrogated them.
Qian Yanjun, who came to question them, said politely, "It's routine, please cooperate."
He immediately set his sights on Sora and Paimon, who were strangers.
"Who are you? Where did you come from?"
"My name is Paimeng, and he is Kong. We are travelers who came all the way from Mondstadt. We just arrived in Liyue yesterday. I heard that today is Liyue's annual invitation ceremony for immortals, so I came here with Jiang Bai and the others to watch it.
look……"
Paimon was a little nervous about this kind of cross-examination, but she was still quite smart and did not reveal the true purpose of the two people's visit.
Qian Yanjun, who came to interrogate, nodded. Since he only arrived in Liyue yesterday, there is no prerequisite for harming the emperor. In addition, it is common for people to come to watch the ceremony out of curiosity, so the suspicion can be ruled out.
However, before ruling it out, he still checked with several Liyue people in Hutao.
"That's true. I can vouch for them." Jiang Bai said.
Hutao also nodded, indicating that he could also testify.
After interrogating Kong and Paimeng, Qian Yanjun began to interrogate Jiang Bai and the other three. Although he had seen these three people when they were on duty at Liyue Port, he still had to ask what should be asked.
"When did you three come to Yujingtai? And why did you come?"
"I must have arrived around 10 o'clock in the morning. I heard that the Fools were coveting the power of the God of Wind in Mondstadt before. I was a little worried that they would covet the power of the emperor. I came here to watch and beware of them causing trouble." Hutao did not hide his secret.
true purpose.
The Qianyan Army soldier nodded, which could also explain why she started fighting with the Fool Executives.
Ningguang's secretary Baiwen stepped forward and said, "Several of you, Miss Ningguang invites you."
Ningguang invited not only Jiang Bai and the others, but also Kong and Paimon.
A group of five people followed the secretary and left. Before leaving, Jiang Bai took a look at the dragon corpse.
Qianyan's army was covering the dragon corpse with white cloth and preparing to move it, but they didn't know where to move it.
Zhongli looked at all this and said nothing.
In the room, Ning Guang looked at the large pile of information fed back by Qian Yanjun, frowning in thought.
Seeing Hu Tao and the others coming, she stood up and asked straight to the point:
"I wonder what you guys think about the emperor's murder?"
She knew the details of the five people present, including the traveler who arrived at Liyue Port yesterday and his traveling companion.
She naturally has no ill intentions towards the honorary knight who saved Mondstadt.
As for Jiang Bai and the other three, they are all from the Rebirth Hall.
Although Jiang Bai's origin is a bit special, he has been in Liyue Port for more than a year, and there is nothing suspicious about this matter.
Zhongli spoke slowly, but kept his words, "Based on common rational inference, Emperor Yanwang most likely died of natural causes."
Ning Guang slowly shook his head, "I have thought about this possibility, but there are still many things I can't figure out.
"If the emperor has reached his end of life, why didn't he leave a message before, so suddenly...
"But the emperor is a god of war, I really can't think of any mortal who can assassinate the emperor...
Paimon held his chin, feeling that his brain was running out of energy, "This is impossible, that is impossible, could it be that Rock God is not dead at all?"
