"Get up and answer the question, I won't kill you." Yin Dong said calmly.
"Excuse me, sir." The man stood up quickly, but still nodded and bowed, with a flattering smile on his face.
Yin Dong said: "I heard that a ship from the town customs office went to sea. Let's start from what happened that day and tell us what abnormalities happened at the town customs office during this period."
As soon as he said this, the reckless man breathed a sigh of relief: "My lord is here to ask this too!"
Yin Dong raised his eyebrows: "Recently, have many outsiders come to inquire about the town customs?"
"No! There are also messengers from the Immortal City. I heard that they all arrived at the city gate, but Marshal Yuwen didn't open the door, so they arrested many people outside the city to search for their souls."
Speaking of this, the man's face showed a look of panic.
"The messenger from the Immortal City arrests ordinary people to search for their souls, how cruel is that?" Yin Dong asked with a frown, a stern look flashing in his eyes.
The man's eyes were red, and he said gloomily: "That's not true! In the eyes of the immortal city messengers, our ordinary lives are as cheap as grass and mustard, as cheap as pigs and dogs. They search for souls in public. One of them is my nephew. He is only ten years old."
Five years old!”
Closing his eyes and pushing back the tears, the mangy man looked straight at Yin Dong and said: "Those envoys from the fairy city haven't left yet. They have all gone into the mountains. I heard they are looking for the beast tide army. I want to find them."
That beast-controlling messenger from the beast-controlling sect joined forces to attack the town customs."
"An army of beasts?" Yin Dong was stunned for a moment.
The mangy man explained that on the day when Zhen Haijun's warship went to sea, an army of beasts rushed out of the back mountain and attacked the town customs. After suffering heavy damage, the army of beasts retreated into the mountains.
Speaking of the defeat of the beast tide army, the man's eyebrows were filled with joy and he looked very relieved, which made Yin Dong very strange.
"Don't you hope that the beast tide army will break through the town customs and allow you to enter the city?"
Hearing Yin Dong ask this, the mangy man shook his head.
"There is a saying. Although Marshal Yuwen did not open the city and allowed us to take refuge in the city, when the beast tide came, he used the city defense formation to protect us refugees outside the city. But if the beast tide army won, the city would be destroyed.
Everyone inside and outside the city will become food for ferocious beasts.”
As the mangy man spoke, he was shivering with cold wind as he was blown by a gust of cold wind. He looked at Yin Dong pitifully, hoping that he could finish the question quickly so that he could catch fish.
Yin Dong asked some more questions and almost got the news he wanted to know.
For example, the blood-colored light has only appeared once in the town customs recently. It did not exist for a long time, and the blood-colored light disappeared. It should be that someone was demonized in the city, but it was discovered and cleaned up in time.
In addition, the Zhenhai Navy on the city wall has always been normal, and Marshal Yuwen can often be seen leading the Zhenhai Navy senior officials to patrol the city wall.
At the same time, Marshal Yuwen opened the material exchange area. People outside the city put the materials in the exchange area. He personally controlled the array, collected the materials, and then moved the exchanged living materials, medicines and weapons outside the city.
There is no contact between the two parties during the transaction, which eliminates any possibility of foreign blood demons sneaking into the town's customs.
Hearing this, Yin Dong breathed a sigh of relief. At least Marshal Yuwen was fine and smart enough. He should be able to stabilize the situation in the city for a while.
"It delayed you from catching fish, so these dried meat and fish can be considered as some compensation." Yin Dong said, moving a pile of dried meat and fish, and a bag of rouge rice from the Wuxu World.
The city is relatively peaceful, so Yin Dong is not in a hurry to enter the city.
He flashed and dashed straight into the depths of the forest.
Yin Dong planned to go into the mountains and kill all the envoys from the Immortal City and the Beast Taming Sect, lest they bring in another army of beasts to attack the town customs.
Passing through the forest, he entered a steep mountain range. As Yin Dong walked, he was surrounded by silence, except for the occasional roar of animals and the chirping of birds, which soon fell silent again.
Yin Dong remained calm on the surface, but he had a terrible guess in his heart... deep in the mountains, could there be a passage leading to the maelstrom, right?
Could it be that the so-called beast tide army has become the food of the blood demon?
At this time, Yin Dong seriously doubted the motives of those messengers from the Immortal City... They went into the mountains to look for messengers from the Beast Taming Sect, not necessarily to attack the city, but to find a passage into the maelstrom!
Next, Yin Dong's scalp felt a little numb, and he intuitively felt that he might have discovered the truth, which aroused a sense of crisis and made his heart feel like a haze.
The power of a dragon surged from Yin Dong's body and spread in all directions, searching the mountains.
He tried to find any traces, but the strange thing was that all the creatures in the mountains and forests seemed to have evaporated from the world, leaving no residue at all, not to mention dead bones, not even ashes.
Where did the beast army go?
An answer popped into Yin Dong's mind... He was found by the messenger from the Immortal City, and sent into the maelstrom through the passage deep in the mountains to feed the blood demon!
On the surface, he was calm and not discouraged. He still searched the mountains and forests inch by inch, searching the inner area step by step, not missing any blind spots.
Another person would definitely not be able to consume mental energy like Yin Dong. He is completely unscrupulous. With the Lake of Shadows in the world of Whirlpool, he does not worry about exhaustion of mental energy at all.
Yin Dong's mentality is very good, but he also has a very depressed and helpless feeling, because the layout of those old monsters in Fairy City has been too long ago, and it is basically the harvest season, and there is still a little time, a year, or even less, and
It’s unrealistic for him to break the situation in such a short period of time!
"Oh, it's so difficult for me!" Yin Dong saw a large bluestone, the stone surface washed by the rain was as shiny as new, so he walked over, sat on it, and dug it out.
His fingertips trembled, and the devouring power surged, and the rich spiritual energy from the big bluestone was devoured and refined by him.
After a moment's delay, Yin Dong realized that he had picked up another rare spiritual stone. Even the Chaos Blood Dragon in his Dantian raised his head and let out an "ouch", indicating that he also wanted this spiritual energy!
"You're a foodie, wake up when you find something delicious!"
Yin Dong vomited out of habit and poured all the majestic spiritual energy swallowed and refined in the big blue stone into his dantian for the Chaos Blood Dragon to absorb.
Just when the big bluestone turned into a pile of stone powder, a sudden change occurred deep in the mountain!
It was a deep ravine that crisscrossed for dozens of miles. In the bottomless ravine, poisonous miasma gurgled out, and the faint sound of rushing water could be heard.
I don’t know how many ferocious sea fish are dormant in them, and this is not the point. The point is...these ravines are connected to the maelstrom!
Suddenly, it was as if a blood moon was shining in the deep ravine, and a light and rainy light rose up.
In the light and rain, a beautiful woman in a fluttering red dress appeared in blood. Every move and every move she made had a unique charm, exuding an alluring aura and a suffocating powerful momentum.
The blood-colored light on this blood demon's body was like billions of rays of blood-colored lightning, making her even more beautiful, full of wild charm, and domineering.
