Chapter 3173 Inquiry
Although the guy Li Huailin appeared in front of him didn't know him, but judging by his attire, it seemed that he was really a bandit. Then this is really embarrassing. After all, I pretended to reason for a long time, and then I was suddenly slapped in the face by this guy who came out. Li Huailin said he couldn't bear it.
The opponent was running on a horse, but that was useless, because both Li Huailin and Summoning the Jade Emperor could fly, and the opponent was stopped by Li Huailin before he ran far. A light cannon fired, this guy fell off the horse directly, and rolled on the ground for several laps before stopping. Of course, he suffered a lot of injuries. He turned his head and took a look, and found that the horse here had been beaten by Li Huailin His head was gone, so the other party swallowed directly.
Although Li Huailin was a little bit annoyed, he also knew that he couldn't kill this guy, otherwise, he would ask someone about the situation here. He also took control and beat the opponent's horse directly. Of course, this guy fell hard. When the opponent was lying on the ground and yelling, Li Huailin also fell from the air. After looking at it, the opponent was a man who looked to be in his thirties. The human being is of course an np, and the name displayed on his head is Torres, and he is also a guy with a red name. Looking at it closely, he looks more and more like a bandit.
"Forgive...forgive me." Sure enough, the way he said it was very similar to a bandit. When he saw Li Huailin, he didn't care about the pain, so he begged for mercy. Yes, in this situation, Torres has no intention of continuing to struggle. Everyone knows what a person who can fly represents. It is a holy level. In the eyes of ordinary people, a holy level is an existence that is indomitable, and it is almost like a god. The standard is down, what can I do, I can only beg for mercy.
"Treat me." Li Hualin saw that summoning the Jade Emperor had already followed up at this time, and said to her. The treatment for Torres is of course for the convenience of the conversation. The other party fell quite heavily, and his whole body was covered in blood. Li Huailin didn't want the other party to pass out or hang up directly while talking. Summoning the Jade Emperor is also a simple gesture, and the wounds on Torres' body are completely healed. This is really an easy thing, but in Torres' view, this is an amazing thing. Holy boss.
"Thank you... thank you sir, thank you sir!" Torres said quickly, yes, if the other party is willing to treat him, of course he is going to let him go, otherwise why should he treat him, so he also hurriedly gave him the treatment. The two of them kowtowed, this kowtow to a holy boss is not shameful, it should be regarded as worshiping God.
"Okay, I have limited time here, so you can answer whatever you ask, otherwise it can save you, and it can also send you to die, understand." Li Huailin said simply.
"Yes, yes, my lord." Torres here said quickly, but he really didn't dare to violate Li Huailin's meaning.
"Who are you?" Li Huailin asked.
"I... the younger one is called Torres, and I am... from the neighborhood..." Torres here thought for a while and said.
"People around here? Do you think your dress looks like people around here?" Li Huailin asked,
"That means you want to die, right?"
"No... no no no, please forgive me, my lord, I... I am a bandit, a bandit from the hill next to me." Torres said quickly, and then kowtowed while observing Li Huailin's expression, yes he was worried When Li Huailin heard that he was a bandit, he killed him directly, and he didn't dare to say it before.
"md is really a bandit." Li Huailin expressed his headache and said while holding his forehead.
"My lord, please spare me..." Seeing Li Huailin's expression, Torres here hurriedly kowtowed, almost breaking his head.
"No, are you out of your mind? This place is so poor, you came here to rob?" Li Huailin said, yes Li Huailin really thought that there were no bandits in his territory at first, after all, his Bug physique increases favorability in the opposite direction, that is to say, the more ruthless I am to these villagers, the more favors I gain, so when the villagers on my territory are too poor to survive, how can someone fall into the grass and become a bandit? That's why Li Huailin said so clearly when he pretended to be aggressive before, but he was slapped in the face. These bandits should be outsiders, but they don't know why they chose to come to Li Huailin's territory. Is there really any oil and water here?
"I...we were forced, my lord." Torres here said, "We were originally from Wright County, but the lord over there extorted violently. It's really too powerful. We are not opponents at all. We were beaten all the way, and we were driven here. I don't know why the opponent's soldiers stopped chasing here. We can only settle down here. gone."
Li Huailin understands that this Wright County should be the territory of the human Nasser Empire, it is estimated to be very close to this side, and then after the other party is brought here, the other party's lord also knows that this is the territory of the emperor of the mainland, you, the human empire How could the army enter here casually, even if they were suppressing bandits, they couldn't enter here casually, so the other party retreated, and as a result, these bandits came here.
"Oh, you took away the people from the village over there?" Li Huailin said, pointing in the direction of the village. Li Huailin said that they were taken away because there were no corpses in the village, so the people in the village were not killed, but taken away.
"No, my lord, this matter has nothing to do with us." Torres here immediately said, seeing Li Huailin's eyes, Torres here quickly explained, "It's true, Lord Saint, The people who took them away were officers and soldiers. We had our eye on this village at first, and after several days of investigation, we were planning to take action. As a result, when we were about to do it, a group of officers and soldiers suddenly came and killed everyone in the village. They were all taken away, and there seemed to be a little conflict with them, the two sides fought, and I happened to be here to investigate at the time, so I saw everything."
"Oh? Officers and soldiers, are you sure?" Li Huailin asked, looking at the summoning Jade Emperor next to him, as if you think my reasoning is correct. Of course, summoning the Jade Emperor just rolled his eyes. I don't know what Li Huailin is struggling with.
"Yes, it's officers and soldiers." Torres said immediately, "I saw these officers and soldiers took them to the city of Loperance over there. I heard that there seems to be... a problem there recently."
"A problem?" Li Huailin asked, "What problem?"
"We've been here for a while. Before that, we could sneak in to buy some supplies in Loperance City, but recently the officers and soldiers there have been patrolling more and more strictly, and the investigation is really tight. We Several brothers went there and never came back. I don’t know what to make there, it seems to be building a building. I took a look at it from a distance before and saw a lot of soldiers and some slaves moving things. , I suspect that the lord here is going to build some buildings, and then the construction period is not enough, so he pulls Zhuang Ding and takes all these villagers away." Torres said.
"La Zhuangding?" Li Huailin asked.
"Yes, this kind of situation is not uncommon. It's just that these lords came from behind the scenes. The lords here seem to be more cruel than ours. They directly beat the civilians into slaves." Torres curled his lips.
"Do you think it is a strong man? But if it is a strong man, why are there no women, children and old people left in the village?" Li Huailin said, "What is the use of pulling these people to work? Do the strong men usually pull them back? I think You are still lying, did you kill them and take their bodies away?"
"No, really not, Lord Saint, what I said is really the truth, it's really not us who did it, it was the hands of those officers and soldiers." Torres said quickly, and knelt down again .
Seeing the appearance of the other party, Li Huailin felt that the other party was not lying. Yes, the other party really didn't have the guts, but Li Huailin still had this problem. If you say that if you make things, you can just arrest adult men. Why arrest women, children and the elderly? Well, they are not counted as labor force, and you have to be responsible for feeding them, which is not a pure loss. But the soldiers obviously took everyone away, why?
The second question is, where are these people going now? According to the current situation, this village must not be the only one that was attacked. It is estimated that all nearby villages were attacked and everyone was taken away. Of course, the city is completely empty now, people are gone, soldiers are gone, so what's going on?
Judging from the current situation, Lagarde wanted to build something, so he asked the soldiers in the city to bring people from the surrounding villages. What was it built? Is it the black mountain? Sure enough, it is a building, Li Huailin should be right.
"What do you think?" Summoned Jade Emperor came over and asked.
"What the other party wants is not labor." Li Huailin thought for a while and said, "Otherwise, the elderly and children would not be arrested. What the other party wants may be life."
"Life sacrifice... and so on?" Summoning Jade Emperor thought for a while and said.
"Probably so." Li Huailin nodded, "It's like a ceremony to summon an evil god. I don't know if the summoning was really successful or failed. Anyway, this should be the case in the city. What I know now is this Lagarde should have done it himself, otherwise the soldiers would not have obeyed the order. If this is the case, the result may be a little better, at least we know that Lagarde should not be missing..."
"If the other party summoned the evil god, it should be to gain the power of the evil god. Anyway, he should still be in the city now?" Summoning the Jade Emperor also said, "But if it is successful, it may also leave."
"When was the last time you saw that the city was still good?" Li Huailin turned to Lagarde and asked.
"Huh? What does it mean that the city is good? I went there to investigate in the morning." Lagarde asked not quite understanding.
