ps: Bow and thank the deputy moderator "A nameless man" for sending a precious monthly ticket, thank you!!

Since they got three masks and left the town, their lives for Wang Sancai and Fang Tong have become much easier.

Still, he started to stock up on food every time he went to a place, rushing to travel during the day and looking for inns to repair at night. Before he knew it, Wang Sancai didn't know if the food in his warehouse was enough for a year or two.

However, in order to reach the front line faster, Wang Sancai threw Fang Tong and the carriage into the warehouse in some sparsely populated places. However, because the warehouse had a "cooling time limit" for living things, Wang Sancai could not throw Fang Tong and the carriage in every day. But even so, the speed of the two people increased a lot compared to relying entirely on carriages for transportation.

Burning stone city is located in the southernmost part of Zhou State and belongs to the southern boundary of Zhou State. When passing through the capital, Wang Sancai and the others did not stay in this place because they can only know from the local people that the king is not in the capital, and the entire capital is now only supported by the "parliament".

Moreover, Wang Sancai also found out some news that except for the members of the parliament, all other important figures went to the front line, and the head of the Bai family was always imprisoned by the king on the front line.

From this point of view, the mysterious man who took Bai Xiao to find the leader of the Bai family must also go to Burning Stone City.

After hearing this news, Wang Sancai did not stay in the prosperous capital, and the deepest impression on Wang Sancai was the tall castle with a construction area far exceeding the merchant manor's manor, and the tower that almost stood in the clouds.

Finally, Wang Sancai arrived at his final destination - Burning Stone City.

However, what made Wang Sancai depressed was that except for finding out the above news, other news and situations were unknown.

Looking at the attic of the Bai family's mansion from afar, Wang Sancai was not sure whether the head of the Bai family was detained here.

After all, there is a prison leading to the forest outside in the manor of the house. Wang Sancai did not see a separate prison in the mansion of Tono Castle. Therefore, it is normal for the Bai family to be not built in the mansion.

Burning stone city is different from all the cities that Wang Sancai remembers. Because of the border, this city is surrounded by high walls, and each wall is decorated with sharp sharp thorns to prevent the enemy's ladder from climbing.

When Wang Sancai entered the city, he noticed that the thick walls could completely walk two carriages side by side.

Outside the city wall, there is a moat nearly twenty meters wide. If the enemy wants to attack, except boating, they can only attack the only road leading to the city gate, and it is only more than ten meters wide.

However, there is a heavy crossbow on the city wall in the middle of the city gate. It is used to destroy the siege. There are two rows of catapults on both sides of the crossbow. It can be said that the Burning Stone City is absolutely well-equipped.

But before he entered Burning Stone City, Wang Sancai knew that the battlefield was not here at all.

Because, in addition to the tightly guarded and the imperial guards everywhere in the city, the residents here actually live as usual. Those who should buy groceries, who should sit in the inn and chat and laugh. Even Wang Sancai often sees children chasing happily on the road, so how could there be any sign of war?

Wang Sancai thought that the king was not in the city at all, and the front line was still further south?

Anyway, he didn't see any smell of gunpowder. Did he say that Li State was attacked by Zhou State and returned? The real front line has become a city in the southern surrounding country?

Wang Sancai didn't know, so he could only come with Fang Tong to an inn in Fenshi City to listen to the conversations of the guests, or ask the shopkeeper for information.

However, he found that the guards in Burning Stone City were extremely strict, and everyone was very alert. He just wanted the inn shopkeeper to inquire about the front line casually. Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper's expression changed drastically at that time, and he kept silent and immediately called the Imperial Guard.

Without saying a word, the Imperial Guard brought a group of people to arrest Wang Sancai and Fang Tong on the grounds of spies. Of course, Wang Sancai would not be afraid of these ordinary people, but once he resisted, the meaning would be completely different.

Fortunately, the Imperial Guard only brought Wang Sancai and Fang Tong to a secret room in the Bai family mansion in the Burning Shicheng.

Wang Sancai never thought that he had walked into the Bai family mansion so easily. Unfortunately, he had no freedom when he entered.

After the Imperial Guard asked many strange questions, Wang Sancai and Fang Tong were released by them.

However, after leaving the Bai family mansion, Wang Sancai still couldn't understand what the Imperial Guard asked.

For example, the Imperial Guard once asked: "Can the two old hens in the family be killed?"

And…: “Are you tired of eating spinach these days?”

“When did the fingernails be trimmed?”

...

What's the problem with him?

Wang Sancai and Fang Tong were naturally unaware of the questions. The two looked at each other. Apart from being able to answer questions like manicure, neither of them knew what other questions meant.

But seeing the two of them confused, the Imperial Guard who was interrogating was relieved. After investigating the information they registered when they entered the city, the Imperial Guard released the two. Before leaving, he threw down a sentence: "Don't ask sensitive questions next time."

Wang Sancai and Fang Tong are standing on the avenue outside the Bai family's mansion now. They can't figure out the strange problems of the Imperial Guard. Wang Sancai can only think that this is a way of testing. However, what made Wang Sancai very satisfied was that at such a close distance during the interrogation, the other party did not realize that the two of them were wearing fake masks and had fake faces on their faces.

However, at present, there are people coming and going, and the traffic is very prosperous. The residents are not indignant about the destruction of the Bai family. Instead, they still live a peaceful life. Wang Sancai doesn't understand this because since he came to this world, he found that every family territory has a very deep family concept. When one family invades the land of another family, the residents in the city will at least be indignant.

But what happened to Burning Stone City?

The rebellion of the Bai family did not arouse the anger of the people in Burning Stone City?

"Xiaotong, did Bai Xiao's father hate him when he was in power?" Wang Sancai looked at the details in the city in disbelief: "Otherwise, if the head of the Bai family was arrested, why would the residents here not have any protests?"

"Impossible." Fang Tong vetoed: "This situation can only show one thing."

Wang Sancai's eyes couldn't help but stayed on him: "What's the matter?"

Fang Tong glanced around and saw that no one noticed him, so he lowered his voice and whispered to Wang Sancai: "Brother, this situation can only show that the king has not treated the head of the Bai family as a 'traitor'. In other words, the head of the Bai family is treated very well now. Except for the restriction of freedom and the fact that his territory is no longer under his control, everything else is safe."

Wang Sancai couldn't help but frown: "Isn't he a traitor? Does Zhou State like to deal with traitors in this gentle way?"

Fang Tong could only shrug his shoulders and shook his head and said, "I don't know this."

Wang Sancai sighed, pondered for a while, looking at the people on the road who were happy with whom he didn't want to have, and said in a little confused: "Xiaotong, the Burning Stone City is here now, but we have no clues at all. Where do you think we should start from?"
