Qiuling County is brightly lit this night.
The late return caravan, the Sijiabao guards who were escorted back by the soldiers, and the stolen "family heirlooms"... These news spread like wildfire in Qiuling County, and in the middle of the night, even the fireworks and willow alleys spread all over the place.
"... I'm afraid the Si family will be planted this time! A servant stole the account book, and I heard that it has fallen into General Liu's hands!"
"What account book? Isn't it the account book of bribing officials? It's a joke, what's the use of raising such a thing, the Si family is one of the best in Qiuling County, and even the Wu Fujun of Pingzhou wants to sell the Si family a bit of face, then But the official of the fourth rank is in charge of the affairs of Pingzhou. That General Liu, just a military attache who was demoted here to suppress bandits, dare to challenge Wu Fujun?"
In the Xiaoyu Building, there were people at the table who were so dazzled that they couldn't help but talk nonsense.
The woman sitting beside them changed slightly, and looked around subconsciously. The woman at the head was wearing a pink tulle, and hurriedly held a jug to persuade them to drink, lest these people be too loud and cause unnecessary trouble.
As a result, after persuading him a few words, he saw many guests coming out of the small building in the backyard, with ashen faces, and hurried away.
"Hey, isn't that Zhang Yuanwai?"
"Treasurer Qian, have a good time here tonight... Don't go? What happened?"
The drinking guest stood up crookedly, wondering in his heart.
After a long while, someone said, "Speaking of which, their caravans have all returned tonight. Are they rushing to find out the news?"
What kind of news, even Wenrou Township is not sleeping
The drinking people in the building looked at each other in dismay, and had a bad feeling in their hearts. Some good people quickly paid money and ran out to inquire about the situation.
Before going out, a young man stumbled in and shouted, "No way! The people from Sijiabao attacked General Liu on the mountain road. Now that General Dangkou has ordered his troops and horses to go to the company. Jiabao asks for guilt!"
Everyone was in an uproar, what did this say, and suddenly they started
Before Liu Dan came, the investigation of gold mines in Qiuling County was very perfunctory. will fall.
Half of the city in Qiuling County is the shop of the Si family, and the rest, even if not, are inextricably linked to the Si family. Now that they are here, it is no wonder that the out-of-staff shopkeepers can't sit still.
Xiaoyu Tower was empty in a blink of an eye, and the madam went out to see that the whole street was like this.
Her building is the first one in the alley, with a good location and a clear view.
"What's the matter, the Si family is not the sky, even if the sky is falling, what's the use of you running?" The old man snorted, and when he was about to enter, he suddenly saw two people passing by on the street outside the alley.
The lantern was hanging high, and she could see it clearly. Although the man on the left was wearing an ordinary cloak, the way he walked with his shoulders straight was definitely not a poor man without money.
"Two officials! Come in for a drink!"
The person she greeted didn't even look here, and continued to walk forward.
The old man was not angry, and suddenly saw the man on the right carrying a suitcase, he quickly raised his voice and said: "The two of you are from out of town? At this hour, there are no vacancies at the inn. Qiuling County has an accident tonight, I'm afraid It’s a night of restlessness, if you two want a good night’s sleep, let’s go to my Xiaoyu Building!”
The two people passing by were the patients of Doctor Mo and this doctor who took the opportunity to slip away after arriving in Qiuling County.
"Doctor." Meng Qi couldn't help laughing, "Do you think after entering, do you sleep well or not?"
"Don't pick on what's wrong with people's words." Mo Li didn't take the old bustard's greeting seriously, and didn't feel bored.
In fact, Zhushan County is very poor, so poor that there are basically no brothels.
If the bustard doesn't say hello, the ink carp doesn't realize where this place is.
But that's all, because the price here is too high, and it is definitely not within the scope of Doctor Mo's consideration. The advantage of Qinglou Chuguan is that it can hide whereabouts, because when staying in an inn, you need to show directions, and local people need household registration. There are no such rules when entering Fireworks and Liuxiang. All the people who come here are guests, as long as they can afford the money, no one cares. where are you from.
"The Si family's influence in Qiuling County is bigger than expected." Meng Qi looked at the panicked people on the street, and thoughtfully said, "I'm afraid there will be trouble."
The old bustard greeted him for a long time, and found that the two of them were getting farther and farther, and he was even more angry.
It doesn't look like you have no money, why would you rather go to the inn and endure the noise? You must know that the inns in Qiuling County are almost all the business of the Si family. Now that the owner is in danger, the guys still have the heart to greet the guests
"I don't know good people!" The old man turned around and went back to the building angrily, but he bumped into the pink-clad woman head-on, and the two couldn't dodge and collide with each other.
"Qiu Hong! What are you doing out here?"
The woman in pink put on her dress and said in a panic, "Mom, I just went to the backyard and heard a sound from the well."
"How is it possible? We can still be haunted in the building?" The old man didn't believe it at all.
At this time, Meng Qi and Mo Li in the distance stopped at the same time and listened suspiciously.
A strange sound came from the ground, getting louder and louder.
Mo Li's expression changed dramatically, and he said loudly: "It's the ground movement! Everyone, let's go!"
The ground has begun to shake slightly, because the sound of silk and bamboo has stopped, the rare silence in the brothel Chu Pavilion, many people heard the strange sound.
The screams were continuous, and many women ran out in a hurry, but because of the gauze skirts on their bodies were dragged and dragged, their hands and feet were caught.
Tiles fell, vases shattered, and the ground shook violently.
"Earth Dragon turned over!"
The terrified shouts could be heard far away in the night, and the entire county town woke up shaking, but it was already too late.
Mo Li just dragged a person away from the area where the tiles fell, and when he turned around, he saw a few people buried by the collapsed eaves. Even the number one expert in the world is at a loss for clones at this time.
To make matters worse, Mo Li felt that his inner strength was draining.
It's very inexplicable, but the spiritual power is rapidly consumed, and I don't know where it went.
"doctor!"
Meng Qi jumped over a pile of ruins and grabbed the ink carp.
As soon as the palms of the two touched, they felt that the other party was the same as himself, and the spiritual energy in the body was affected. If it goes on like this, it will be difficult to protect oneself, let alone save others.
At this time, people could no longer stand, and could only hold on to the things around them to maintain balance. A crack appeared on the road, which quickly extended and widened.
The crack was bottomless, and an unpleasant odor came from it.
Some people couldn't dodge and fell into the cracks, screaming incessantly.
In an instant, Wenrou Township was in ruins. Those who were still alive tried to escape with difficulty, but the strange sound from the ground shook their eyes black, as if a beast roared at them in despair.
"boom!"
The sound suddenly disappeared, and there was a faint thunder in the sky.
Thunder in winter is really evil.
Mo Li stood in a daze, his consciousness detached from his body and floated into the pitch-black night sky. He saw that the entire Qiuling County had been turned into ruins, there were cries everywhere, and candles and beatings were everywhere where there was light. A fire caused by an overturned oil lamp.
A huge crack divided Qiuling County into two halves.
Going forward, you can see that the crack extends all the way into the mountain.
The situation in the mountain is even more serious than in Qiuling County. From a distance, the whole mountain is torn apart.
Rivers diverted, cliffs fell—
Mo Li suddenly remembered that Liu Dan took people to Sijiabao, and he didn't know where they were blocked. He wanted to find this group of people, but it was so dark that he couldn't see anything except the general mountain situation.
"It's dead."
A voice suddenly sounded, and Mo Li was taken aback.
He had heard this voice before, it was Taijing Longmai.
He quickly "raised his head", but did not see the huge body of the golden dragon.
"… Where are you?"
"I'm by your side, you can't see me, because our real body can only condense and form above the dragon vein, and the dragon vein of Shilang Mountain is no longer there."
"You said it was dead?"
Mo Li was naturally shocked. He came to Shilang Mountain to find the dragon veins.
But how did Longmai die? With mountains and rivers in its shape, can the dragon veins formed by the gathering of aura still die
"Because the Si family dug gold mines in the mountains?" Mo Li couldn't help but ask, he never believed in "breaking the dragon veins", but the result was true
"It's not like that." Taijing Longmai's voice suddenly changed, and the next few words were vague, "Someone..."
Mo Li wanted to listen carefully, but his consciousness was chaotic. When he woke up again, his ears were full of mourning.
"Doctor, are you all right?" Meng Qi helped Mo Li climb out of the ruins.
Mo Li felt that the dantian was empty. He tried to mobilize his spiritual power, but he was almost carried away by the aura that came from all directions.
It is too abundant, and it is a hundred times better than Qimao Mountain, but when I first arrived in Qiuling County, I did not find it at all.
Thinking of what Taijing Longmai said just now when his consciousness was blurred, Mo Li was secretly shocked.
- The dragon vein of Mount Shilang is dead.
Earthquakes, landslides, and the aura all around are the scene after the dragon veins disappeared
Mo Li suddenly thought of his previous guess. He turned to look at Meng Qi and asked tentatively, "What did you see just now?"
"We all passed out just now, and I woke up and saw you lying here." Meng Qi also found that his internal strength had recovered, he let out a light sigh, and said in shock, "Doctor, when the earthquake occurs, you will still be breathing Human inner strength, and then come back?"
"… "
Mo Li couldn't answer, he felt extremely sad subconsciously, obviously he had never seen the dragon vein of Mount Shilang, and he didn't know if it had consciousness.
In addition to sadness, there is anger.
The monstrous anger, wanting to destroy everything, is like the twisted and desperate roar of the ground when the earthquake occurred.
Mo Li almost thought that Meng Qi's madness had spread to him, his hands kept shaking, and scales began to appear on his face.
There was a faint cry for help under the rubble around him.
The doctor's instinct reminded Mo Li that he was a "human" and the scales disappeared. He took a deep breath and said, "Brother Meng, save people first!"
