Night Watchman: Linked to the Legend of Sword and Fairy game, strongly promoting Huaiqing.

Nangong Qianrou quickly made a guess.

All six corpses were killed by a fatal blow.

Most importantly, none of them resisted, and some even showed expressions of pleasure on their faces.

This is obviously not right.

The only possibility is illusion.

Six people fell under the spell, becoming so engrossed in it that they couldn't extricate themselves.

Then they were killed one by one by the enemy.

"Illusion?"

Li Xuan raised an eyebrow, his interest piqued.

Nangong Qianrou parted her red lips slightly and said, "If it's an illusion, could it be the Witch God Cult?"

Throughout the world, the most powerful illusionists are undoubtedly the Witch God Cult.

But what is the purpose of the Witch God Cult appearing in Taikang County?

Furthermore, why kill the night watchman with the silver gong? Wouldn't that expose them?

"There must be something wrong here."

Nangong Qianrou immediately stood up and said, "It might be a trick of the Witch God Cult."

The Witch God Cult?

Li Xuan's expression changed.

Nangong Qianrou looked at the county magistrate and asked, "Where did the incident occur? Take us there immediately."

Upon seeing this, the magistrate immediately turned to the constable and said, "Take Lord Nangong and the others to the scene of the incident at once."

"Yes, sir." The constables immediately accepted the order.

Two quarters of an hour later.

The group arrived at a remote area.

An old village with few inhabitants.

The night watchman who died was in a mountainous area of ​​the village.

The head constable said respectfully, "Sir, this is the location of the incident."

Nangong Qianrou nodded, then instructed Li Xuan and the others: "Immediately conduct an investigation of the surrounding area, examine the scene, and look for clues."

"Yes." The dozen or so night watchmen they brought immediately sprang into action.

Nangong Qianrou was also at the scene, carefully examining the area and searching for clues...

Li Xuan was also among them.

at the same time.

Deep in the mountains and forests.

The group of people were carrying a lot of items, and they looked anxious.

These people are followers of the Witch God Cult.

The leader was the person in charge, a powerful expert named Meng Wu, who was at the late stage of the fourth rank.

The Dream Witch looked at her subordinates and immediately ordered, "Speed ​​up, cross the mountainous region, and leave the capital."

"Yes, sir," the men replied immediately.

They began quickly moving the items deeper into the mountains.

Taikang County is located in the most remote suburbs of the capital, and is full of desolate mountains and wilderness, which is convenient for hiding. From this desolate area, one can directly cross the capital's blockade and escape from the capital.

of course.

Although it's possible to exit through these mountains and forests, the problem is that the journey is difficult and takes a long time.

Especially now, with such a large quantity of contraband, it is extremely difficult to transport them.

"Damn watchman, how did he find this place?"

"It forced me to kill him and flee in haste."

A look of resentment appeared on the Dream Witch's face.

The original plan was perfectly fine: to have the court's spies help transport the goods out of the capital bit by bit.

Unexpectedly, the night watchman came to their door and made a discovery.

Left with no other choice, he had to kill several night watchmen.

He then ordered his men to flee overnight with a large number of prohibited weapons, artillery pieces, and other military supplies.

And you'll only be allowed to use the roads in the mountains and forests.

Everywhere was filled with miasma and poisonous insects, making travel difficult and with no roads available.

A night has passed, and we still haven't gone very far.

"Hopefully the night watchmen won't arrive so quickly."

"Otherwise, it will be a big problem."

The Dream Witch became somewhat worried.

outside.

After some investigation, Nangong Qianrou and her group quickly found some clues.

One of his men said, "Sir, there are techniques and methods of the Witch God Cult nearby."

"If nothing unexpected happens, it was the Witch God Cult that killed me."

Nangong Qianrou nodded; she had also found the methods of the Witch God Cult.

But she frowned, somewhat puzzled: "Why does the Witch God Cult insist on killing the night watchman?"

“They definitely have a problem; there’s something wrong with this location.”

Murder implies something that cannot be brought to light.

Nangong Qianrou's almond-shaped eyes lit up, and she said, "Investigate the entire village immediately, leaving no place or corner unchecked."

"Yes." The night watchman and the constables immediately went to carry out the order.

Nangong Qianrou looked at Li Xuan and said, "Let's go, let's go and see what the Witch God Cult is planning."

Li Xuan nodded.

Head towards the remote, deserted village to investigate.

····················

83. The Witch God Cult uses dream witches, illusion arrays, and ambushes to kill.

Half an hour later.

The investigation concluded with a significant discovery.

The subordinate reported, "Sir, traces of siege equipment, artillery, and other military supplies have been found in a secluded area in the northern part of the village."

"Initial suspicions suggest that this village contains a large amount of important materials such as siege equipment and artillery."

"But at present, it has disappeared without a trace."

Upon hearing this, Nangong Qianrou's almond-shaped eyes narrowed.

"I see."

"No wonder they killed him to cover their tracks; it turns out this place contained important supplies such as siege equipment and artillery."

"They were discovered by the night watchman, so the Witch God Cult chose to kill them to silence them."

Suddenly, the situation became completely clear.

"Search the surrounding area immediately."

“These important supplies are bulky and heavy, and they definitely cannot be transported very far.”

"It's definitely still within this area."

Siege equipment, artillery, and other supplies were heavy, bulky, and numerous.

The Witch God Cult was discovered last night; it's impossible for them to escape overnight.

not to mention.

This is within the territory of the capital city.

"In addition, we will focus on searching mountainous and forested areas, as well as barren mountain areas."

"If the Witch God Cult wants to hide these items, there must be only one way."

"As ordered!"

The night watchmen and constables quickly began their search.
