Zhao Zhao turned around and left, but Shen Miao kept watching them go away.Ji Lingxiu looked at Zhaozhao: "Where to go next?"

Zhaozhao thought for a while, most of the people in the entire Xingyue Imperial City were infected with the disease, so how were the first batch infected?The secret guard appeared next to Zhao Zhao and took out a stack of compiled files.

"Princess, please look at this. Your Majesty asked us to sort it out and give it to the princess."

After Zhaozhao opened it, he saw the details of the deceased recorded one by one, including their names, when they died, and where they went in the days before their death.

Zhaozhao browsed through line by line and found no clues. It was obvious that his father had already checked these things when he got them, and he was also investigating in secret.

Zhao Zhao didn't see any clues, so he simply didn't waste time on it. However, although this file could not find any useful information, it could be used as reference data for comparison.

She thought for a while, then looked through several useful places in the file, and found that these people lived in different locations in the city, and they were everywhere in the southeast, northwest and northwest.A few women even stayed at home to raise their children and never went out, but they became the first people to be infected.

This proves that it is indeed different from ordinary witchcraft. In other witchcraft, Ba people gather in one place and control them at the same time, such as Liuyun's Ghost Temple.

But they are different this time. The scope is so large that no one can be spared.If before, she may have targeted and targeted manipulation, now she is completely casting a wide net.

But what can be found in every corner without making people feel strange? It is always around us and we have to come into contact with it every day?

Zhaozhao's eyes lit up and he immediately said to the little eunuch beside him: "Tell me to prepare a carriage for me outside. I want to go out. I'm going now!"

The little eunuch didn't dare to waste any time and immediately did as she said. Zhao Zhao turned his head and Ji Lingxiu said as if he had a clear understanding: "Already have a clue?"

Zhao Zhao nodded, he indeed had an idea, and this idea was the most appropriate so far. Zhao Zhao felt that it was definitely close to what he had guessed, because with this idea, all the previous doubts had a premise that could be discussed.

The secret guard ran to Gu Rongzhan: "Your Majesty, the Sixth Princess wants to go outside the city. Should we stop her or let her go?"

Gu Rongzhan stood on the city wall with pitiful eyes. He turned back to look at the secret guard and ordered: "Do as Zhaozhao said, but you must always protect her from behind and don't let her make any mistakes."

The secret guard took the order and went down to do it immediately.With Gu Rongzhan's permission, the coachman began to whip his horse's whip, making the carriage drive very fast.When he arrived at the place Zhao Zhao mentioned, Ji Lingxiu was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect it to be so remote.

Zhao Zhao jumped off the carriage and ran to the front. This is the source of the entire Xingyue Imperial City moat. All water needs to flow through here. If the witchcraft this time was caused by someone from the water, then it must be here. There will be problems at the source.

When Zhao Zhao came to the end of the water flow, he saw that the Eye of Water Source had turned black. If it was ordinary pollution, the spring would have been washed away by the water flow frequently, but the black color remained on it.

And as more and more water flowed through, the color actually started to get darker and darker. Zhao Zhao broke off a tree branch and stirred it inside. The tree branch and the water next to it immediately became turbid.Zhaozhao handed the tree branch to Ji Lingxiu and told him, "Keep it well and show it to Brother Shen Miaoshu and Shuying when we get back to see what it is."

Ji Lingxiu put it into the carriage as instructed, and then asked her: "Are there no traces of witchcraft around here? That black poison? Do you need Liu Shuying and the others to observe it?"

Zhaozhao shook his head, "It also contains elements of witchcraft, or witchcraft is most of the components, but there are several kinds of poisons that will kill you immediately if you touch it, so I have to take it back and let Brother Shuying study it. "

"It's best to develop an antidote quickly, otherwise the poisoner will use this poison to come back and deal with us Xingyue. Then we will be caught off guard like we are now, and then we will be like headless flies. change."

"The people in the palace are fine, but we have seen too many lives lost along the way. Too many people have no way to resist and can only choose to wait for death from this large-scale disease."

Zhaozhao sighed, but his eyes became firmer: "But now is not the time to talk about this. Only when the epidemic is solved first can we continue to trace who is responsible. And I will never let this person go, because he has shouldered the responsibility of We, the stars and the moon, have thousands of lives!”

Ji Lingxiu was shocked. He didn't expect the child to have such a big heart.Thinking of this, Ji Lingxiu felt a little proud. Of course his child was unique and could surprise him anytime and anywhere.

At this moment, Zhaozhao pushed him: "Look, is there anything moving in the grass next to you?"

Ji Lingxiu squinted his eyes and looked over. It was indeed there.He said suspiciously: "It can't be some kind of fox, rabbit, or something like that? It's easy to find these things in the wild."

Zhao Zhao shook his head, because it was impossible.Wild animals are the most spiritual and sensitive to smell. If they know that the river has been polluted, they will no longer come here to drink water. They will even move with their ancestors and descendants. There will be no animals within a few miles.

Ji Lingxiu squinted his eyes and calmly took out a dart from his pocket. The moment it flew past, a black figure fell to the ground. He originally wanted to run away, but unfortunately Ji Lingxiu predicted the direction of escape and ended his life with a single blow.

The other people in ambush looked at each other and ran out. After the grass stirred for a while, a group of scarred-faced gangsters surrounded them.One of the bald heads seemed to be their leader here and asked Zhao Zhao: "Are you the Sixth Princess of Xingyue?"

Zhao Zhao looked at his outfit and said nothing for a long time.She didn't know what this person's job was, but she said he was a fierce bandit. He also had Liuyun's customs clearance document on him, and even had many rare things found only on the border.

He said that he was a businessman, but he didn't have any money on him, and he spoke with gangsterism. He stood in front of them and blocked their way. This behavior was more like robbing their homes.

Zhaozhao looked around and held his breath: "Who asked you to come here? It seems that you have been prepared for a long time, specially laid an ambush, waiting here to kill me?"

The bald man sneered, as if he acquiesced to her statement. (End of chapter)
