For the next month, Ren Baqian practiced in the Earth Yin Spring every day.
After a month, he finally didn't fear the coldness of the spring at all.
During this month, the empress's face became darker and darker.
Every time Ren Baqian came ashore, the empress would always regain her cool demeanor. She would even hold a comic book in her hands and casually flip through it.
However, Ren Baqian could still feel that the empress was like a volcano that was about to erupt. A violent feeling was slowly accumulating in her body.
Even when Great Xia invaded, the empress didn't have such a change.
Even Qing Yuan and Hong Luan didn't smile as much.
"Your Majesty, another village has been discovered," Gong Zheng reported as he walked quickly to the empress's side.
The empress looked at Ren Baqian, who was still in the Earth Yin Spring, and asked calmly, "How many is this?"
"The eleventh!" Gong Zheng's eyes were filled with anger.
What exactly was it that actually turned so many of the aboriginals into this state?
Among the eleven strongholds, there were at least a hundred people, while the largest had more than three hundred people.
2,000 people in 11 villages. Furthermore, this was the number that had been discovered so far. It was unknown how many more had yet to be discovered.
So many people had been turned into puppets for at least 10 years. How could no one have noticed?
Furthermore, why did they build a village here? One had to know that the environment around here wasn't suitable for building a village as it was a barren land. It was impossible for these villages to have been here for a long time.
According to the investigation of the winged cavalry, these villages were built about 20 to 30 years ago.
This thing was planted in the aboriginals' bodies and controlled them to leave their original villages and come to this barren land.
No one would believe that there wasn't a mastermind behind all of this!
No one dared to believe it either.
"Crack." A crack appeared from top to bottom on the huge black rock that the empress was sitting on.
The empress gently floated to the bottom of the rock and asked, "Have you dealt with it?"
"Yes!" Gong Zheng's heart was heavy. It was easy to say that it had been dealt with, but this was the fate of the aboriginals!
"Continue to search. Send everyone out to investigate in all directions and see how many more there are! Find out what exactly is causing trouble! If there is any news, inform me immediately! "the empress said with a cold look in her eyes.
"Yes!"
After Gong Zheng left, the empress found another rock and sat there in a daze.
He was about to get married, and he was in a good mood. He didn't expect to encounter such a thing, and he didn't know how big the waves would be.
She turned her head and looked at Lin Qiaole, who was sleeping soundly on the ground. Sometimes, the empress was quite envious of her.
Mentally handicapped children live a much happier life than ordinary people.
He didn't have to think about anything else other than eating and sleeping. He would eat again when he woke up …
…
Ren Baqian stood in the middle of the Earth Yin Spring, and the water just reached his chin.
After another hour, Ren Baqian slowly opened his eyes, and a trace of fatigue flashed across his eyes.
His stomach was in knots again.
There were still many faces in the lake around him. They had surrounded him since the first day he came here.
Ren Baqian even saw a bird among them. It was the bird that cursed and was squashed to death by him.
Now that he thought about it, he was a little irritable at that time.
Coldness always calms people down.
Ren Baqian smiled and nodded at the bird head that was opening its mouth at him. "Amitabha! The earlier I die, the earlier I can reincarnate. Who knows, I might still be human in my next life! "
He then waved at the empress tiredly, and she reached out to pull him ashore.
Ren Baqian lay down tiredly and looked up at the sky.
His position wasn't far from the empress's skirt.
He didn't know what the empress was thinking. If it was in the past, she would have kicked him away, but she didn't care about it now.
"I hate safety pants," Ren Baqian suddenly said.
The empress moved her eyes, kicked him in the ribs, and sent him flying five to six meters away.
Ren Baqian landed on the ground, turned his body, and lay on his side. He looked at the empress with one hand supporting his head and asked, "Is Your Majesty angry again?"
"No!" the empress said faintly.
"It turns out that the rock is cracked!" Ren Baqian laughed.
"It's too brittle!" the empress said simply.
Ren Baqian laughed again after hearing this.
"Mind your own business and don't worry about anything else!" The empress sat on the rock and looked up at the sky.
This valley was surrounded by mountain walls, and one could only see a large piece of the dusky sky above their heads.
It had been more than a month, and the sky hadn't changed much.
One couldn't help but wonder if it was painted on.
Ren Baqian looked at the empress and knew that she didn't want him to worry. He sighed and lay flat on the ground again. He stretched out his limbs, and his fingers touched something soft.
It was Lin Qiaole's face.
Lin Qiaole turned her head in her sleep and bit him in return.
Ren Baqian took a deep breath. This girl's bite was really ruthless.
Ren Baqian had always been the type of person who would bite back if a dog bit him.
His gaze wandered around Lin Qiaole's body for a long time, looking for a place to bite.
There were a few places that were not bad, but if he did that, he would probably be beaten up by both women.
He definitely couldn't do something that would put him at a disadvantage.
He had to bear with it!
…
Another half a month passed, and it had been almost two months since they arrived here.
Gong Zheng walked to the empress's side again and said, "Your Majesty, we have discovered the 19th village."
"I know! Just clean it up, "the empress said softly as she stroked her hair with her fingers.
As time passed, the volcano seemed to have sunk to the bottom of the sea, and there were no longer any ripples on its surface.
However, everyone knew that this volcano was only covered up. When it erupted again, it would erupt with even greater flames than before!
"There's one more thing …"
"If you have something to say, say it. Don't delay!" The empress twirled her hair with her fingers and then straightened it.
It had been really boring in this valley for the past two months.
"Two teams didn't return on time!" Gong Zheng whispered.
Each team that went out to search this time had five people, and two teams had a total of ten people.
It wasn't a small matter for ten people to go missing, especially when it came to scouting.
The empress stopped twirling her hair, turned her head, and stared at Gong Zheng with a pair of cold eyes. "How long have they been missing?"
"They have been missing for 13 days. We have a rough location, and they are two of the teams that have been searching the furthest. They are in the southwest direction, about six days away.
They didn't return on time yesterday, and we thought that they were delayed. However, since they haven't returned today, I'm afraid that something has happened. " “
The empress moved, stopped, and turned to look at Ren Baqian, who was in the Earth Yin Spring.
"Your Majesty, I'll go and take a look myself!" Gong Zheng naturally knew that the empress didn't want to leave now, even though Principal Ren didn't seem to be in any danger.
The empress walked two steps on the ground, came to Lin Qiaole's side, and kicked her butt.
Lin Qiaole flew up like she was riding on a cloud. In the air, she bared her fangs and brandished her claws as if she was startled. She twisted her body and landed on all fours, crouched down like a wild beast, and scanned the surroundings fiercely.
