When Zhou Qingfeng came to Banshee Fort this time, most of the work was progressing steadily. A network that penetrates into the enemy's interior is taking shape, and the troubles caused during this period are also calmed down.
Whether it's investigating the strength of opponents, purchasing war preparation materials, and recruiting useful talents, all plans have been executed well and perfectly. But a little clueless..., looking for descendants of demons.
Zhou Qingfeng provoked the resentment of seven goddesses, none of them was easy to provoke. He was asked to tear down the'Iron Curtain' covering the sky above the North Land, but it was not clear what the'Iron Curtain' was. The only clue is the descendants of the demons in the Northland.
But most of these demon descendants turned into human forms, hidden in disguise, God knows what their identities are now
"According to the character of the devil, their descendants will certainly not live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, let alone live a stable life honestly. They will inevitably come to the city to find a place with a lot of people."
In the middle of the night, Zhou Qingfeng stood on the tower of the Banshee Fort, overlooking the city in the night breeze. In the tower below his feet, several soldiers were snoozing around the brazier, unconscious.
After arriving at the Banshee Fort, the only clue that Zhou Qingfeng had doubts about the descendants of the devil came from Roma's original laboratory. There seems to be someone in the Banshee fort preparing'head shaking powder', this kind of medicine was originally from the demon warlock.
But Zhou Qingfeng didn't directly ask Roma about the relevant content. He didn't trust the other party, for fear of getting rid of it. All he can do is run out at night and wander around, looking aimlessly, trying to run into a descendant of a demon who doesn't open his eyes.
Or whatever.
Not long after standing on the city wall, weeping and crying for help came from the night breeze. Zhou Qingfeng immediately turned his head, his sharp eyes penetrating the night. The hidden servant moved accordingly, moving to the direction from the sound, reporting specific information.
The security of Banshee Fort is not good, especially the artisan district where the poor live. There will always be such and other evils at night, mostly trivial things, not as threatening as a fire.
But Zhou Qingfeng couldn't let go of any information. He quickly jumped from the tower of the city wall and rushed to the scene of the incident at a swift speed. Two men were holding clubs and beating another man, and the latter made the call for help.
It is nothing more than a robbery caused by poverty, and there is no other reason. Every time it was a similar incident, Zhou Qingfeng was not surprised. He appeared behind the perpetrator and said in a low voice, "Stop, continue the fight, and that person will die."
The violent two were not tall and strong, and they were shocked to hear someone behind them. One of them turned around and wanted to run, but was hit in the thigh by a tiny arrow shot from the palm of Zhou Qingfeng's palm.
"Sagittarius", Zhou Qingfeng learned arcane tricks only, the victory is that the shooting range is relatively long, and the power is very limited. The assailant who hit the arrow fell to the ground and screamed, but the other did not dare to move. Even the robbed one on the ground stopped crying.
In the dark night, only the light of torches lit at the intersection, the narrow streets, flustered breathing, and thumping heartbeat. Zhou Qingfeng's high-sensitivity keenly accepted all the information, and he asked impatiently: "I'm sorry to disturb you, I just want to ask something."
Both the robbers and those who were robbed were poor, and couldn't understand what Zhou Qingfeng was talking about. But they didn't dare to move, because listening to the tone and posture, this one was a superior.
"Have you heard any weird rumors?" Zhou Qingfeng took out a silver coin from his pocket and flicked it at his fingertips, "Tell me something useful, and I'll give it a reward."
There are hidden servants acting as eyes and ears, and Uncle Zhou has been working as an obligatory security officer these days. He can come out to fight 20 or 30 fights in one night without even sweating. As a result, the public security situation in the artisan district has greatly improved, and the poor feel that there are fewer disturbances at night.
The rogues in the city are all rumors, saying that you should not be too scared when you meet this lord, because he has one problem-weird rumors. Tell the rumors he has not heard, and he will reward the money.
Of course, there are also people who want to make up stories to swindle money, and they are beaten up by this knight. But if you tell a strange story and have detailed information about the person, time, location, etc., you can really get the reward.
A silver coin is not less. Save some flowers, enough for a poor family of three for more than half a month. Both the robbed and the robbed were using their brains, but the one who hit the arrow in front first shouted: "Master, I know something."
The guy with the arrow limped back and ran back, crocking his back towards Zhou Qingfeng with a low smile, "There was an accident in a village to the west of the city. An old witch with maggots came to the village. The people in the village are fleeing. But many people did not escape."
The lie test..., it turned out to be passed.
"What village? Where is it?"
"I heard this from a fugitive a few days ago. The village had no name, but a group of refugees had gathered for several years. There were only 30 households and a hundred people. Follow the road west of the city to the mountains , You can find them."
The information is so general that it is impossible to find out.
Zhou Qingfeng performed another trick "lighting technique" to illuminate the ground a few feet square, "Draw me the location of that village."
The guy who hit the arrow suddenly hesitated, he didn't have the ability to identify the map, and he couldn't tell the difference between the north and south. He tried to paint on the ground, but he couldn't paint at all for a long time.
Zhou Qingfeng was unwilling to give up this clue, and threw the silver coin casually, saying, "Wait for me in the west of the city after dawn. Take me to the ground and I will give you another silver coin. If you can't bring it, you will kill you."
The guy who hit the arrow caught the silver coin with both hands, and was overjoyed again and again bowed his head to Zhou Qingfeng. Hearing that as long as he leads the way, there is still money to take, he even more fully agrees.
Zhou Qingfeng turned and left, disappearing quickly. The Banshee Castle in the night has other information waiting for him to check. He collected a lot of weird things in a few nights. The witch with maggots on her body, God knows what the real background is
Too much information was collected, but very little was related to the descendants of demons. For example, yesterday I heard that there was a haunted well. I ran over and saw that in the well was a family of ghosts who committed suicide in poverty.
For example, the day before yesterday, I learned of a black shop selling suspicious jerky. An investigation found that the'suspect jerky' was all human flesh, and the source was vagrants inside and outside the city. The meat of women and children is the most popular.
For example, the day before yesterday there were rumors that a plague appeared somewhere outside the city. The thing is true, but the distance is too far, the location is unknown, it is impossible to go, naturally there is no way to find out.
In the event of such troubles, the executions that should be superfluous, the executions that should be executed, and those that should be kept on file for investigation, we will talk about it later. In short, Zhou Qingfeng is very busy and can be called a model of enthusiastic love for the people. It's just that there are so many things, no clues related to the devil have been found for the time being.
Zhou Qingfeng wanted to go to the church district and the noble district to check. But first he didn't know who to investigate, and secondly, these two places were much more dangerous, so he didn't dare to rush in casually.
According to the description of the arrow, the village with the old witch is only one day away from the Banshee Fort. If you are riding a horse, it is faster, and you can get there in half a day.
Hope to find something.
