After seeing the evidence, Ou Ya was able to confirm that the young golden warrior Lei Ji was the one who killed their farm workers. However, Ouya could not support Diao Si's idea of going to Lei Pi's big house to ask for someone. She believed that the death of a few farm workers was still a small matter and should not make the matter a big deal.
Diao Si explained the truth to him again, which made her understand that if Lei Pi didn't let Lei Pi know how seriously they took this matter, the farm workers would not be able to work with peace of mind next time, and Lei Ji would become more and more excessive. , treating these farmers and workers as hunting targets, and doing so is also to avoid the worsening of conflicts between the two parties.
In fact, Diao Si had long wanted to teach Lei Ji a lesson. He also wanted to avenge the arrow shot at Ou Ya and the hole in the black robe! This was an opportunity, and of course he would not miss it, even if it meant making Reggie bleed and restoring the black robe to its original appearance.
Under Diao Si's persuasion, Ou Ya finally agreed, so they led a few more dark crystal warriors and asked some soldiers to take the corpses and arrows to Lei Pi's big house. This immediately attracted the attention of Lei Pi's soldiers, but they did not dare to come and stop him.
The place where the farmworker was killed was not far from Lei Pi's town, so they quickly arrived in front of Lei Pi's big house. Unexpectedly, they met Lei Ji here, and there was no fear on her face.
After knowing that Ou Ya was visiting, Lei Pi came out to greet him again, but when she saw Diao Si's weird smile, her face became ugly again. She definitely doesn't welcome Diao Si, but she still has to give Ou Ya face.
"Sir, please sit inside. I was planning to visit you." Lei Pi said and motioned for Ou Ya to come in. However, after seeing the corpses of the farm workers, she immediately became furious and said: He yelled at the soldiers who were moving the corpses.
"Sir, you won't bring these corpses into my house, will you?" Lei Pi calmed down after scolding and asked Ou Ya.
Ou Ya did not answer directly after hearing this. He thought for a while before saying to Lei Pi: "Earl, we found these corpses in the planting area this morning. They were killed with bows and arrows. I don't know if you recognize these arrows, Count." arrow… "
Lei Pi should have known about this for a long time. She glanced at the arrows and responded with a smile: "Hahaha, sir, you came to me so early in the morning because you wanted to kill these few foreigners. Is this necessary? If you are short of manpower, I can give you some."
Hearing her relaxed words, Diao Si couldn't help but interject: "Life is at stake. Being killed is not a trivial matter. We are here to find the murderer."
"Murderer? What's wrong, didn't you catch her at that time? Do you mean to suspect that I am the murderer?" Lei Pi also expected that Diao Si could talk, so he immediately asked him this question.
Diao Si smiled after hearing this and said: "To be honest, we suspect the count's daughter Reggie. To know whether it was her fault, we only need to ask her to hand over the weapons for comparison."
"What a joke! Even if my Lei Gang family killed so many foreigners, how do you want to punish me? Several foreigners actually brought the corpses here. Are you not deliberately looking for trouble?" Lei Pi said angrily responded.
After hearing this, Diao Si walked up to her and responded: "Does the Earl know that they are now from our food base? Even if you want to kill them, shouldn't you say hello to our Lord Ouya first..."
Just when they were arguing, Lei Ji appeared, and Lei Pi immediately signaled her to step back and leave, but she refused to listen and walked in front of Diao Si.
"That's right, I killed these people because they crossed the border, how about that?" Reggie said directly, without any regret on her face, as if these farm workers deserved to die.
"Crossing the border? This is difficult to understand. It turns out that there is another border in the Blazing Empire..." Diao Si used Lei Ji's words to stir up trouble again: "And if you step here, you will be killed. This is Is it stipulated in any national law of the empire?”
Lei Ji wanted to refute, but Lei Pi immediately stopped her, and then responded to Diao Si: "She has killed people, what do you think now? Do you want us to compensate some people for you, or do you want to apologize to those outsiders?" ?”
After hearing this, Diao Si turned his head and signaled to Ou Ya, and then replied to Lei Pi: "It's nothing. Since she killed someone, we have to punish her, otherwise she won't remember this lesson and will do it again next time." If you continue to kill our people, has the count forgotten the last slave monster incident? "
Hearing Diao Si's words, Lei Pi's face darkened, he was stunned for a while, and then said angrily to Diao Si: "Isn't it just killing a few foreigners? You all have to deal with me for such a small matter? Isn’t this just trying to make things difficult for me?”
"Your Majesty the Earl, you are serious. We are here to solve the problem, and we respect your opinion, Earl. You can solve this matter how you want to solve it. All we want is to hope that this kind of thing will not happen again!" Without showing any weakness, he replied firmly.
Lei Pi hesitated after hearing this, but the little girl Lei Ji was dissatisfied and spoke: "In Chihu City, slaves, monsters and untouchables are always killed at will. This is the rule set by my ancestors when they were in the fiefdom. Unless you leave, The territory of Blazing Lake City…”
Hearing what she said, Lei Pi immediately criticized her and said, "Don't you think she has caused too much trouble?" The girl didn't say anything more, but she glared at Diao Si angrily.
After another moment of silence, Ou Ya said to Lei Pi: "Earl, in fact, this is just a small matter, but now the empire is facing a food crisis, we must ensure the smooth progress of this work. Now that the child has realized his mistake , then just don’t do it again.”
In this way, Lei Pi's words became more polite. The two of them continued to chat for a few words, and Ou Ya led everyone to leave. But Diao Si was unwilling to do so. It seemed that it would not be easy to touch a hair on this little girl like Lei Ji, so he had to do it secretly.
"Tonight I will guard the place where these people were killed. I hope Miss Lei Ji will really not dare to come again!" Diao Si thought of a plan and left these words, then turned and left.
"It's a joke. There are places in Blazing Lake City that I, Lei Ji, don't dare to go to. You'd better not show up there!" Lei Ji became angry after hearing this, but was immediately restrained by Lei Pi.
It seemed that Diao Si had succeeded. This little girl would probably appear there again that night. As long as she dared to appear again, he would definitely let her bleed back. If you can't do it openly, I'll follow you secretly. This little girl Diao Si has many ways to catch people.
On the way back, Ou Ya kept persuading Diao Si, and suggested that they had better resolve their past feud with Lei Pi as soon as possible, so that they could better complete the food task. Of course Diao Si couldn't agree, but he didn't say anything to avoid quarreling with Ou Ya again.
However, the grain that was originally planned to be donated to Lei Pi was persuaded by Diao Si to instigate the opposition of the farmers and workers, and two dark crystal warriors were responsible for transporting it all back to the imperial city.
On this day, Diao Si had plans to continue to expand the planting area, but he was persuaded by Ou Ya. In order to avoid friction with Lei Pi, he temporarily expanded towards the mountains and woods. It will take another day or two to pause expansion, improve the living conditions of those farmers and workers, and build some basic facilities.
Finally it was night again, and after another fight with Hao Qi, Diao Si came to the place where the farm workers were killed, waiting for Lei Ji to show up. He believed that this young and impulsive girl would definitely appear.
But after waiting like this, when it was completely dark and the moon came over the branches, it was still quiet in the town, except for the soldiers on the sentry post who stretched and moved their buttocks for a while. Could it be that Lei Pi trapped that girl and prevented her from going to this appointment
Diao Si couldn't wait any longer. Looking at the quiet town, Lei Pi's big house, and the soldiers napping on the sentry post, he had a new idea. Even if Lei Ji didn't dare to come, he You can also go to her.
So using the moonlight, he used wind magic, and riding on the light and airy feeling, he blew past the sentries without anyone noticing, and soon arrived in front of the town. There were more guards here, probably just to prevent him from Diao Si, but after Diao Si used his refraction magic, they didn't find anything. (To be continued)
