Qinglu City!
The dried corpses outside the city were fished out, and more and more people gathered around.
There were two bloody holes on their necks, and their blood had been sucked dry.
"Who knows who these ten dried corpses are?"
"They're so shriveled and soaked in water. Who can recognize them? But they must be the garrison of Qinglu City? "
"Weren't they imprisoned by the Yuan Dynasty soldiers?"
"These bloody holes were bitten by the bat demons, no, the vampires?"
"Vampires? Those Yuan Dynasty soldiers? "
…
…
…
Countless people discussed.
Tang Chu put on a simple makeup and stood in the crowd. Not far away, a group of people seemed to be adjusting their expressions. Tang Chu looked at the small group of people. She nodded gently.
That group of people seemed to have received a signal.
"My son, why did you die so miserably?"
"It's my nephew. He had just broken through to the Golden Core Realm that year."
"The Yuan Dynasty soldiers went back on their word and only said that they were imprisoned. It was all a lie. The Yuan Dynasty soldiers were eating them. After they finished eating my nephew, they turned around and attacked us?"
"You blood-drinking demons, give me back my grandfather. Wuwuwuwu!"
…
…
…
The group of people kept crying and slandering the Yuan Dynasty soldiers. For a moment, the surrounding people panicked.
Were the million garrison soldiers really eaten and not imprisoned?
Eaten for ten years? Ten years later, will they make a move on us? They drank human blood.
"Auntie Zhang, these dried corpses are already like this. Can you recognize your son?" Someone questioned.
"I don't know, but can you guarantee that it's not my son?"
"Huh?"
"These dried corpses were only discovered. Can you guarantee that my son is not among the undiscovered ones?"
"Huh?"
"Back then, the Gengjin Sect sent troops to Qinglu City. My three younger brothers and one son sacrificed themselves to protect Qinglu City from being massacred by the Gengjin Sect. Now, my youngest son has been sucked dry by the Yuan Dynasty soldiers. My life is so hard, and you still doubt me? Wuwuwu …! "Auntie Zhang cried bitterly.
The people who questioned Auntie Zhang were also reprimanded by the surrounding people.
"Inhumane thing, what did Auntie Zhang do to you? You're always exonerating the vampires! "
"Bah, do you have any shame? Back then, our city was almost massacred. How many people in Aunty Zhang's family died to protect the city? Do you still doubt her? Yuan Gou! "
"Cold-blooded animal!"
…
…
…
Immediately, the questioning voices disappeared.
Tang Chu specifically found some family members who were crying and complaining, but they were all crying and screaming. This sadness and fear quickly spread to the city.
More and more commoners were attracted over. Those who did not come had also received the news and were looking forward to seeing how the City Lord would respond.
The news quickly spread to the City Lord Mansion. A large number of officials were invited to the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion.
"Bang!"
The City Lord knocked over a vase and looked coldly at his subordinates: "Who is it? Who couldn't control their own mouths? Don't you remember the imperial edict? His Majesty asked us to do our best to appease the people and assimilate them. Who couldn't control their mouths and actually sucked the blood of the defenders? Aren't prisoners enough for you to drink? Why would they throw their corpses in the wilderness after drinking? Who is it? "
The group of officials did not dare to speak.
"City Lord, now that there's such a huge commotion, why don't we seal up the ten dried corpses outside the city? That will prevent the people's resentment from growing. "
"Do I need you to say that? The dried corpses definitely need to be sealed up. However, sealing them will cause a huge backlash. Investigate and find out who it is. I want him dead! "the City Lord roared.
The group of officials did not dare to speak.
Originally, they were sent to assimilate Qinglu City. It was a lucrative job. Ten years later, all of them would have a good resume with countless contributions. However, if they made a mistake, His Majesty would definitely blame them. At that time, it would no longer be a matter of merit but a serious dereliction of duty.
"Report!"
Suddenly, a guard rushed into the main hall.
"Huh?" Everyone looked over.
"Reporting to the City Lord, news just came from Qinglu Prison. None of the 1,036,425 prisoners are missing!" The guard reported.
"Huh?" The expressions of everyone in the main hall changed.
"None missing? Then, who are the ten dried corpses outside the city? They are even wearing the uniforms of the defenders? "the City Lord said with a frown.
"Someone did it on purpose? To frame us? "
Everyone in the main hall was shocked as they looked at the City Lord.
"Go and count them again. Count them carefully!" the City Lord said.
"Yes!"
"Where did those dried corpses outside the city come from? Could it be that the Da Qian Dynasty framed us? "
"It is very possible. Only the Da Qian Dynasty would dare to play such a trick."
"City Lord, what should we do about the dried corpses outside the city?"
"Don't touch them. Since those dried corpses are framed, don't touch them first. Investigate who did it! Also, investigate thoroughly to see if there are any outsiders! "
"Yes!"
The news of the dried corpses continued to spread.
The attitude of the people in the city was different. Some were inexplicably terrified, while others did not believe it at all. However, no matter what, in a short period of time, the news of the dried corpses had spread to all parts of the city. Almost all the adult citizens had heard the news. The news could not be suppressed at all.
Of the one million prisoners, only three hundred thousand had families. The three hundred thousand families came to investigate immediately. All of them were worried. Among them, there was a large group that kept crying. They organized and headed to the City Lord's residence.
"City Lord, let go of my family!"
"Murderous demon, return my son!"
"Kill me too if you dare. Kill him!"
"You said that my son is still alive. Let me see. Let me see. We can visit the prison too. Why can't we? "
… … …
… … …
… …
"Everyone!" Suddenly, a loud voice came from the City Lord's residence. It was amplified and spread in all directions.
All the people in the city went silent.
"I promise everyone that your family members are all safe and sound. The dried corpses outside the city are all part of a scheme!" The City Lord's voice was heard.
"What about my son?" "What about my grandfather?"
Countless relatives of the prisoners shouted.
"From tomorrow onwards, you will be allowed to visit the prison in batches. A hundred people will visit the prison every day. Go to the torture hall to register. Those who arrive first will be allowed to visit the prison first!" The City Lord's voice was heard.
"Boom!"
The relatives of the prisoners immediately rushed to the torture hall to register.
A vampire storm instantly vanished like smoke in thin air.
Since the prison visits were allowed, what the City Lord said should be true. Did someone deliberately frame the City Lord? However, the relatives of the prisoners were ecstatic.
Gu Hai stood in the first building of the street. He looked in the direction of the City Lord's residence and revealed a faint smile.
"Your Majesty, the prison is about to be exposed!" Tang Chu smiled respectfully.
"Go and arrange it! Also, record every batch of relatives. Get ready to start! "Gu Hai nodded.
"Yes!"
The prison visits in Qinglu City began. The other eleven cities were also doing the same thing.
The prison visits had completely resolved the crisis. The Yuan Army could sit back and relax. Everything returned to normal. In the face of facts, all conspiracies and tricks were jokes.
However, the City Lord of Qinglu City still wrote the news in a memorial and sent someone to send it back to the Daewon's capital and the Northern Expedition City!
The first batch of a hundred relatives was sent to an extremely remote area in the city.
A group of Yuan Army soldiers watched over them and they saw their relatives.
The first batch of a hundred relatives came out of the prison happily.
"How is it? How is it? "Countless people outside were waiting expectantly.
"It's okay. My son is living well in the prison. It's just that his cultivation is sealed. He has been an ordinary person for ten years and he is fine. No one is injured!"
"My grandfather wants me to cultivate well and check on my cultivation after ten years!"
…
…
…
When the first batch of a hundred relatives came out, the last trace of worry in the hearts of the people disappeared. It turned out that everything was fake.
The second batch and the third batch of people went to visit the prisoners one after another. The people were no longer worried.
The prison area.
It was like a living area for ordinary people. Millions of Yuan Army soldiers lived together.
Among them, the few who had been visited gathered at a small mountain pass.
"Our family head sent a letter to ask us to cooperate. What do you think?" One of them whispered.
"Although the family head did not mention who will help us, I will definitely listen to him!"
"Me too!"
"Humph, my family put in a lot of effort to make me a military officer. Now that I am a prisoner, I will have nothing in ten years."
"My family is thinking of ways to help us break the seal. Brothers, we killed the enemy together in the past. Now we have to cooperate from the inside and take back what we have. Do you dare?"
"Of course we dare, but not everyone thinks that way. Right now, our million people are like a sheet of loose sand."
"My family gave me a plan of rebellion. The first clause is to persuade the old city lord. He is also imprisoned here, so he must be full of resentment. The condition is that he will continue to be the city lord. I don't believe that he will not be moved. If he is not moved and does not cooperate with us, we will find a way to replace him!"
"We will use the old method of organizing the army and manage it layer by layer! The plan of rebellion states that we will try to instigate the defection of some prestigious generals. After we get out, all of them will be restored to their positions. We will reward them according to their merits. As for the other soldiers, we will not let them know for now to prevent too many people from gossiping. Time is limited, so do it as soon as possible! "
"Okay!"
The plan of rebellion in the prison was in progress.
"The prison is heavily guarded?" Gu Hai looked at the fog-shrouded prison area in the distance.
"Yes. A large number of Yuan Dynasty soldiers guard the place. Furthermore, they set up a ritual array. The ritual array covers the underground. Even if we dig a tunnel, we will not be able to enter!" Tang Chu explained.
Gu Hai nodded and smiled. "Now that we know where it is, it will be easy!"
"Yes!"
"Have you found a way to break the one million prisoner army's seal?" Gu Hai looked at Tang Chu.
"The family clans and the prisoner army have already discussed it. This seal is the same as the seal that His Majesty placed on Nine-Five Island's Great Feng Mafia Family. It can be undone with the Lightning Luring Platform!" Tang Chu said respectfully.
Gu Hai nodded. "Since this is resolved, the plan of rebellion must have started. We just need to instigate a group of generals. We will be done in ten days at most!"
"Alright!"
"Since that is the case, let's begin. Unexpectedly, it is easier than expected this time. Hah! I hope it will succeed!" A determined look flashed in Gu Hai's eyes.
"Accumulating resentment and offending the authorities? With ten days to ferment, it should be about time! "Tang Chu nodded and smiled.
However, Gu Hai remained silent for a while before saying, "We cannot bully the people's hearts. We had no choice this time. When we capture the city, we will properly compensate the citizens of the city!"
"Yes!" Tang Chu's expression turned solemn.
