Nanjun of Jingzhou is located in the northwest of Jingzhou. If you travel to Jingzhou by water from the north, you will usually arrive at Nanjun first and then reach other towns.
After sailing for a few days, Ji Xian and Su Luoxue's boat arrived at the river on the outskirts of Nanjun City.
But when they arrived at the outskirts of the city, they found that there were many more ships coming and going.
But because this is Nanjun, a prosperous city in Jingzhou, and it is also connected with Yuzhou and Liangzhou, it is an important transportation center, so it is not surprising to see so many ships coming and going.
The two could have continued south by sea, but they disembarked when they arrived at the Nanjun dock. The reason was that Mo Yu and the Slaying Sparrow Guard had been traveling non-stop and had already arrived yesterday, so they were going to meet them.
To be honest, Ji Xian was very reluctant to meet with the Lieque Guards because it disturbed his and Luoxue's private time.
However, the secret letter sent by Mo Yu this morning clearly mentioned the current situation in Jingzhou. There were many things that needed to be reported in person, so the two had to go and listen to what they had to say first.
As soon as they left the dock, they saw the Lieque Guards led by Mo Yu.
"Master Ji, Master Su."
Mo Yu led the Lieque Guards to pay their respects to the two, but did not address Ji Xian as "Your Majesty." This was because Su Luoxue had mentioned in the letter that Ji Xian had come to Jingzhou incognito, so naturally, he could not address her as "Your Majesty" in public.
"Yes, yes, no need to be polite." Ji Xian raised her hand nonchalantly and said to them, "Don't you have important things to report? Just tell me the important things. If you have something important, report it. If you don't, you're asking for trouble."
"Um... yes."
Mo Yu muttered in his heart: "His Majesty the Emperor is so casual..."
Although he had to report as soon as possible, Mo Yu was not really in a hurry. Instead, he took Ji Xian and Su Luoxue into Nanjun City first.
She took the two of them to see the situation in Nanjun City.
Ji Xian and Su Luoxue saw people bustling about on the streets of Nanjun City, but there was no sense of bustle and activity. On the contrary, the atmosphere was rather solemn, as if something major had happened.
Ji Xian's five senses are naturally sharp, and she can hear what the people are saying just by listening.
He had heard the people mention words like Nanyi, Xueluo City, and strange beasts many times, as if there was some big chaos in the southern border.
"Is there any trouble on the border?" Ji Xian asked Mo Yu.
"Yes." Mo Yu walked ahead and reported to Ji Xian and Su Luoxue, "After receiving Lord Su's secret letter, I immediately headed south to Jingzhou. I arrived in Nanjun yesterday and met with the city guards. From them, I learned about the current situation on the border."
Mo Yu then began to explain the situation on the southern border.
The nine provinces of the Central Plains and the five important frontier towns control the vital routes leading to the Central Plains from foreign lands.
The important frontier town located in the southern part of the Central Plains is Xueluo City.
Recently, a large number of extremely aggressive exotic beasts have appeared outside Xueluo City, causing heavy casualties among the civilians. Although the Frontier Army has dispatched troops in time to strangle and block the numerous exotic beasts outside Xueluo City, many of the Nanyi exotic beasts have still entered the Central Plains.
The situation in southern Jingzhou is now extremely tense. Many people in Jingzhou have migrated northward to Nanjun, Changsha, Linyuan and other places.
Ji Xian finally understood why there were so many people in the city and so many boats outside the city. It turned out that they were all fleeing from the south.
"What about the Nanyi tribe? Did they intervene?" Su Luoxue asked Mo Yu.
The Nanyi tribe was an alien tribe that had been on good terms with the Great Zhou before the chaotic period. After the Great Zhou was revived, it directly defected to the Great Zhou. It was the only one among the four foreign lands to cling to the Great Zhou.
The Great Zhou’s General Canghu is actually a foreigner from the Southern Yi tribe, and there are also many Southern Yi people in the current Canghu Guard.
The Southern Yi people are best at four things: swordsmanship, body building, witchcraft, and animal taming.
Because Nanyi is the foreign land with the largest number of exotic beasts, they are the best in animal taming. It is strange that so many exotic beasts are now rioting.
"They have also intervened, assisting the Border Army and the White Horse Guards in clearing out the strange beasts, but these beasts are extremely sensitive, so it will take some time."
"Slow down, slow down!"
Mo Yu had just finished speaking when Ji Xian interrupted her.
Everyone around them looked at Ji Xian, who looked at Mo Yu with an unhappy expression and said, "Captain Mo, you called Luo Xue and me to Nanyi specifically to report this, didn't you? You could have just sent a letter. Why do you need us to come and hear it in person?"
"Well, actually..."
Before Mo Yu could explain, Ji Xian looked at her unkindly and said, "If you can't report any more valuable information, I'll have your ancestral graves dug up."
"what!"
Mo Yu was so scared that he was stunned.
‘Clang! ’
But at this moment, Ji Xian was punched directly on the back of the head. Ji Xian held her head and cried out "Ah Yo", then looked at Su Luoxue beside her with grievance.
Su Luoxue glared at him coldly: "How can you talk like that?"
Then Su Luoxue said to Mo Yu, "Captain Mo, please continue."
"Uh, yes."
Mo Yu was sweating coldly and was worried.
Digging up someone's ancestral grave over a disagreement, is this what an emperor should say...
And Lord Su is also quite cruel, actually daring to beat the emperor so bluntly...
But Mo Yu didn't pause for long and quickly said, "Actually, we have also captured a few members of the Crazy Dragon Gang in Nanjun. We are currently interrogating them about the wanted criminal Lu Zhanfei. However, these guys are still very stubborn and refuse to talk no matter what. That's why we wanted to ask you and Lord Su to come here so that you can interrogate them in person."
"How did you catch them?" Su Luoxue asked.
"They were quite rampant in the city. After the citizens reported them, we arrested them in brothels and gambling houses."
"......"
Su Luoxue stopped talking and looked at Ji Xian, as if to say with her eyes, "Why do you do exactly the same things as the bandits?"
Ji Xian whistled and avoided Su Luoxue's gaze.
"Alas." Su Luoxue sighed, holding her forehead with her hand, looking exhausted. "Take me to see those people from the Crazy Dragon Gang. If you still can't find out, I'll interrogate them."
"Yes, sir, follow me. The Nanjun government prison is just ahead."
Mo Yu led Ji Xian and Su Luoxue to walk in Nanjun City, not only to let them see the situation in the city, but also to lead them to the Nanjun government prison so that they could immediately interrogate the bandits of the Kuanglong Gang.
Mo Yu still knows her limits and knows what to report and what to handle herself. Unless it is necessary, she will not disturb His Majesty's investigation and vacation under the pretext of a secret visit.
But before she could finish her words, the news that His Majesty was going to dig up her ancestral grave left her speechless.
1.16 His Majesty the Emperor is taught a lesson by his aunt
The Tianlao in the Nanjun government office was where prisoners were held, and there was nothing special about it compared to prisons in other places.
But in the past two days, a group of serious criminals were imprisoned one after another. They were all remnants of the Kuanglong Gang, a rebel group in Daxuan!
When Ji Xian and Su Luoxue entered the depths of the Sky Prison, they saw a group of burly men imprisoned in the key cells. They had a rough temperament and were tall in stature. They were obviously physical cultivators.
These men were all bound with spirit-binding ropes, unable to mobilize their spiritual energy to escape. Their bodies were covered in wounds, revealing they had been tortured. Some were even nearly dead.
The Great Zhou pursues a policy of loving the people as their own children. Whenever there is a threat to the people, especially matters related to the rebellion of Daxuan, the seven secret guards will use any means to eliminate it.
The people live in the light, and the secret guards eliminate all dangers for them in the darkness.
Su Luoxue looked around at the prisoners of the Crazy Dragon Gang and looked into the eyes of all of them.
There was anger, resentment, and despair in their eyes, but not a single one showed any fear or nervousness. This showed that these guys were indeed tough guys, fundamentally different from the Crazy Dragon Gang they encountered in Anbin County.
However, since they dared to act so recklessly in the city and were even arrested in gambling houses and brothels, it can be seen how rampant these guys were back then.
Even though Daxuan has been overthrown by Dazhou, the nature of these guys has not changed.
Su Luoxue pointed at a few people and said to Mo Yu, "Catch them and I will interrogate them."
"Yes."
Mo Yu nodded, then took people to take all the bandits named by Su Luoxue to the interrogation room.
Ji Xian came close to Su Luoxue and asked her in a low voice: "Aunt, you can also interrogate people."
"No, and don't call me aunt."
"Then Luoxue, why did you take the initiative to interrogate them?"
"I have a method, but I've never used it before."
"Dharma?"
Ji Xian raised her head and thought for a moment, then suddenly thought of something.
No way......
Soon, all the Kuanglong Gang prisoners named by Su Luoxue were brought into the interrogation room. Su Luoxue then entered the room and stood before them.
"Yo, they're going to interrogate us again. Why is there a little beauty here this time? Hehehe."
Some people are still very stubborn and even dare to speak rudely.
But Su Luoxue didn't care, but raised her hand behind her.
The people outside the house quickly brought in a piano, and a few people even carried a piano table and a bench.
Ji Xian stood at the door and did not enter the interrogation room. He had heard Luo Xue being teased just now, but this time he did not get angry. Instead, he looked at these Kuanglong Gang prisoners with sympathy.
Alas, these unlucky guys should just accept their bad luck.
Ji Xian thought about this and couldn't help shaking her head.
After a while, the sound of a piano was heard in the interrogation room, just as beautiful and pleasant as the one Ji Xian heard on the boat a few days ago.
But the spiritual power fluctuations emitted are completely different.
The spiritual fluctuations emitted by the piano music that Ji Xian had heard before could make people happy, relaxed, and calm.
And now from the fluctuations of spiritual power emitted, Ji Xian could vaguely feel that the sound of the piano contained a dark and piercing power, as if it wanted to drill into every pore of Ji Xian impatiently.
Of course, this fluctuation of spiritual power was not directed at Ji Xian. As long as he didn't absorb it deliberately, it would not affect him.
The music Su Luoxue was playing at this moment was naturally directed at...
"Ah ah ah ah ah!"
"No, no, ghost, ghost, ahhhhhhhhhhh!"
“Help, no, don’t come over here, no, ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!”
Heart-wrenching screams of agony rang out from the interrogation room. The screams were so terrifying that people couldn't even imagine what was happening inside.
There were several jailers around Ji Xian, and they were trembling with fear when they heard the noise.
As for Ji Xian, he actually laughed, as if recalling some memory: "Oh, it really looks a lot like the Xuanyin Jue of my aunt and uncle."
Su Luoxue is Ji Xian's aunt and the cousin of Ji Xian's father. Besides Ji Xian, she naturally has other relatives.
Her mother was Ji Yun, also known as Princess Ye Ning, and was the aunt of Ji Xian's father.
She also has an older sister named Su Luohua, Ji Xian's great aunt, and the young master of the Silver Dragon Guard. She also has a father, whose real name is unknown, but who is the Silver Dragon Marshal of the Great Zhou Dynasty. He is the leader of the Seven Marshals of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the most powerful person in the world, and can be considered Ji Xian's great uncle.
The martial arts practiced by these two people is called Xuanyin Jue, which is the most famous evil martial art in the world and the most yin martial art.
Xuanyin Jue is one of the three most famous evil skills in the world. It uses blood and murderous intent to nourish the skills and practice, and the best way to obtain these two things is to kill, so it is called an evil skill.
But seven hundred years ago, on the battlefield of the Eight Kingdoms Rebellion, General Silver Dragon used his evil skills to expand the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and eventually, together with the Ji brothers, he founded the Great Zhou Dynasty and ushered in a peaceful and prosperous era.
Silver Dragon Marshal also became the first evil cultivator to be admired and recognized by the world.
Su Luoxue's elder sister, Su Luohua, had been practicing with her father since childhood, also learning the Xuanyin Jue evil technique. However, eighteen years ago, she joined Ji Xian's father in restoring the country, killing all the rebels of the Daxuan Party, thus becoming the second recognized evil cultivator.
Su Luoxue did not practice evil skills like her father and sister. She learned Wen Tianlu from the great military strategist of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Pang Yuanchu, and became his closed disciple.
However, although she did not practice any evil skills, she did study some of the techniques of the Xuanyin Jue.
For example, the extremely yin spiritual pressure of the Xuanyin Jue is terrifying, and the mind is dominated by fear.
Ji Xian had seen Su Luoxue and her sister talking about the Xuanyin Jue method before. Now it seems that although Su Luoxue has not practiced evil skills, she has mastered the key to the method.
Use piano music to replace the bloody murderous aura, use cold air to replace the extremely yin spiritual power, use the strength of spiritual power to amplify the effect of spiritual pressure, and directly invade the minds of the prisoners of the Mad Dragon Gang!
Ji Xian smiled bitterly and felt her whole body shaking.
When he was a child, he got into trouble. One time, his aunt Su Luohua could no longer bear it and directly used the spiritual pressure of Xuanyin Jue on him.
Ji Xian never wanted to experience that feeling again in her life.
But after a while, the piano music stopped.
Although Ji Xian was standing far away, he was able to hear the conversation in the interrogation room with his excellent perception. Su Luoxue had already begun interrogating the prisoner.
The prisoners from the Crazy Dragon Gang were all frightened and confessed everything.
The purpose of the Mad Dragon Gang's trip is indeed to incorporate the Flame Phoenix Sect. Lu Zhanfei is currently on the Flame Phoenix Mountain, and their mission is to gather information in Nanjun and investigate the court's movements.
