Chapter 352 Three Questions
"The time I was injured was five months ago. The last time Orion found that the nunnery was destroyed by demons was in early winter. When I arrived in Qingtan County, it was almost spring," Zou Jingping said first. Time, and then said: "Maybe it was what I said to Orion that caused him to go to the nunnery again to explore, or maybe, he would go there for a walk from time to time, maybe both."

Li Chuan sorted out the timeline in his mind and asked: "Is the nunnery the first demon disaster in Yashan County? Is it an introduction that led to the subsequent demons and demons that harmed people all over the Jiang Dynasty?"

Before Zou Jingping could answer, Wen Guying said, "Let Mr. Zou continue. What happened to him when he was injured?"

"Okay." Zou Jingping continued again: "Orion said that he went to the nunnery again. At this time, the weeds grew as high as the calf, dotting the collapsed temple. After he walked in, he walked inside As he walked away, he suddenly discovered that there were no weeds growing on the floor of the chanting hall."

"So he searched inside and searched. Suddenly the scenery in front of him changed and he came to a secret passage. He walked forward along the secret passage until he reached the place where there was no road. There he looked When they arrived at a floating tower, there were cracks all over the tower, and a faint blue light came from inside. Orion said that he tried to walk in the direction of the floating tower. He thought his sister might be inside, but he just stepped on it. After taking a step, he heard a rustling sound, and he vaguely saw a shadow approaching him. He turned around and ran out of the secret passage and returned to the chanting hall."

"After that, he didn't dare to stay any longer, so he immediately escaped from the nunnery and hid in the mountains and forests for half a month. Then he quietly sneaked back to Qingtan County. However, on the way, he encountered another monster that hurt people. He came to help and suffered some injuries. That night, he met another group of thieves. Orion said that the weapons of those thieves were very similar to those of the thieves who had kidnapped the servants before. The injury on his chest was caused by those thieves. Cut."

"Orion said that fortunately he escaped at night in the mountains and forests he was familiar with, sneaked into the city, found me, and finally survived."

Chang Xiao said: "Those people are not from the general, but from Prince Su."

Zou Jingping nodded and said: "But Orion doesn't know. He only knows that when Prince Su was here, Yashan County lived and worked in peace and contentment. His sister was a big maid in the palace and was very respectable. He relied on hunting and his sister's support. He also saved some money. But after the general's people came, his sister was gone, and demons were everywhere in Yashan County. "

"And because this is Prince Su's fiefdom, people from the Qintian Prison have been unable to enter. Therefore, after the demons caused trouble, we could only rely on some local capable people and strangers. And many of those capable people and strangers may be Su The prince’s people and the general’s people are now in control of this place, and they are obstructing everything they want to do, so it’s even more chaotic than other places.”

"It's the common people who are suffering." Li Chuan said, and a question suddenly popped up in his mind, "The officers and soldiers who escorted the servants away were from the general's side. How could they hand people over to thieves?"

"It is not accurate to say that they are our people. It is the Northwest Army stationed in Yashan County, and the only one who truly obeys the general's orders is the Yunzhong Army. Although the Northwest Army is under the general's command, many of the soldiers in it are He came from elsewhere." Zou Jingping explained the twists and turns to Li Chuan, "Therefore, after I arrived in Qingtan County and met the contact person, I did not reveal my identity again."

Zou Jingping said: "After Prince Su was rescued from the capital by a monster, many people felt that he had no chance of becoming the emperor in this life, and naturally they would not be willing to guard his property. If someone is provocative, for example, they may simply pretend to be robbed and then sell it for a cent... Even if something happens in the future, how many people will care about the lives of these servants?”

"According to Orion, those thieves are also ordinary people?" Wen Guying asked.

"Yes, my feeling is that Prince Su's people here left in batches after the demons were suppressed in Heyuan Town. It is also very likely that they evacuated after the demon disaster in the nunnery. In early spring, Orion will go When we inspected the nunnery, there should be no one there, maybe there were only a few guards left, those were the thieves," Zou Jingping replied.

"Not necessarily." Wen Guying said. "How do you say it?" Zou Jingping asked.

Wen Guying said: "After the demons were suppressed in Heyuan Town, many people from Xuanmen were looking for clues in Yashan County. Prince Su's men still need to deal with their search."

"That's it." Zou Jingping said.

"What happens after that? What else did you investigate in the next four months?" Wen Guying asked.

"After that... After listening to Orion's story, I suggested that he leave Yashan County as soon as possible. I told him that the general's people are in control of this place, and one day they will find you. Collect the evidence and go Hide somewhere else for a while, and when Prince Su comes back, you can present the evidence to avenge your sister."

"He asked me what would happen if Prince Su was gone. I told him that it was even more important to save his life. The general can be arrogant for a while, but he cannot be arrogant for the rest of his life. Once the new king succeeds to the throne, the general must be liquidated. General, maybe the evidence in his hand will come in handy by then."

"He was finally persuaded by me. I gave him an address, saying it was the home of a relative of mine who also runs a medical clinic. If he really had nowhere to go, he could go there and just give me my name."

"I asked a spy to follow him and warned him that unless he was in danger of life, he would take action. Otherwise, he would just follow him from a distance."

"He is such a good man. After everything is over, I will find a way to give him a future."

After finishing speaking, Zou Jingping paused for a while, as if he was sorting out his thoughts. After a while, he spoke again: "So far, there are three doubts. The first one is the issue of the account books. I can't find the real account books, but each After analyzing the clues, a large amount of Yashan County’s tax money goes to unknown places every year.”

"The second question is, where did the hundreds of servants in the palace go? Why did they kidnap those servants? What does it have to do with Amania? After Orion left, my people and I began to concentrate on investigating their whereabouts. Nearly a hundred people couldn't disappear all at once. In order to mobilize more people, I pretended to leave Qingtan County. After two or three days, I changed my identity and went back again. "

"The third question is, what secrets are there in the nunnery."
