Chapter 74 A Secret
In this case, I can't promise anything to this servant. Can a servant have any important news? I was confused in my heart, but I didn't show it on my face. I just looked at him and said, "It depends on the value of the news you said."
After getting my words, the servant felt a little relieved. He grabbed his hair and looked around vigilantly. Then he said to me in a low voice: "This adult, if you want to be another slave, you will definitely not have such doubts. They don't even know where this place is? It is said to be a dungeon, but because of my ancestors, I know that there are several places in the dungeon that can lead to the ground world, and the constraints are relatively weak. Even the powerful nobles can move within a certain range and enjoy the blue sky and white clouds of the ground world."
Is there something like this? I pondered, but I didn't believe it at all. After all, it is difficult to have perfection in this world. Even the large formation has loopholes. For example, a large formation that locks the dungeon can allow demons with a certain range to go out and trade with people in the ground world. For example, a powerful nobleman who wants to go out to see it must firmly seal his own strength, otherwise he will be restricted by the formation. Even if he leaves the dungeon, once the seal is broken, he will be affected by the formation. At the very least, he will be seriously injured and at the worst, he will die suddenly.
These are the most basic common sense I have heard after staying in the dungeon for so long. I have also sighed at the magic of the sealing formation in the dungeon. It feels like it is not like a blocking range formation, but as soon as the demons in the dungeon are born, their bloodlines are connected to the formation.
Now that I heard the servant say this, I realized that there are several places where the formation is broken, which can allow the demons in the dungeon to go to the ground world to move. It doesn’t matter if you think about it carefully, after all, it’s just within a certain range.
But I had to think about it. When I think of that blood pool, could it be that the blood pool is already working?
"Sir? Is there any problem?" Seeing that I was in deep thought, the servant asked carefully. After all, the focus of him was not this, and in his eyes, is it just a pleasure for top aristocrats?
I definitely wouldn't tell the servant what I was thinking, so I turned around and said to him, "You keep talking."
The servant was also very clever. In order to save his life, he quickly said: "We are all slaves around the top nobles. We also realized that there are such good places in the dungeon, but most people know that it is limited to this. But my ancestors were not bragging, and they also produced a big man. However, after that big man made his debut, he did not care about our distant relatives and was not close to each other. But my grandfather had some friendship with that adult, so he accidentally learned a secret..." Speaking of this, the servant looked at me carefully, as if to judge whether I was interested in this news.
I didn't want to hide it either, just said, "It's a bit meaningful, you keep saying it."
With the possibility of survival, the servant came to his heart and continued: "That is, the ground in Qinglong City is not a back garden that ordinary nobles can enjoy, but a very, very critical place for the dungeon. In short, it is absolutely impossible for ordinary noble identities to come to this place. Even if the status of Jiuer Master is not as good as that of Jiuer Master, it is absolutely impossible for him to come here if he had not had a special reason. I don't know what special here is. In short, it is a great blessing to be able to stay here for an hour. I wonder, whether it is Jiuer Master or Miss Tiansi, although their identities are precious, how can they be qualified to hold a wedding here? Even the commander of the dungeon cannot have such blessings?"
"Is that true?" I asked back lightly. Actually, I didn't know what the meaning of this news was to me. But I also vaguely felt that this news should be very important.
Facing my replies, the servant scratched his head again and said, "Why isn't it? My news is reliable. You have to know that the master who has a little friendship with my grandfather, and he doesn't care about others. He still cares about my grandfather's lineage. Otherwise, with me, how could he be a servant by the side of Mr. Jiuer?"
"You know a lot, but this news doesn't make much sense to me. Isn't it the same where they hold their wedding?" What I said was indeed what I was thinking. When I said this, I changed my subject and said, "Don't talk too much, just answer the questions I want to ask quickly."
When the servant heard what I said, his face became a little ugly, and he said with some dissatisfaction: "Sir, this matter must be meaningful. It would be fine if others didn't know. If I knew, I would like to remind you that you may know the reason for holding a wedding here. It must be extraordinary. If you have this mentality, you can be more careful, and you can't be wrong?"
I felt a little funny. This guy was so talkative that I didn't answer him, but after he reminded me, I did have a little doubt in my heart, and I didn't think much about it before. After all, Ah Da told me that the combination of Jiutail and Tianhu is a big deal for the entire dungeon, and it is a key part of the entire conspiracy to hide the world. So it is normal to hold it in such a place.
Now it seems that this may not be that simple.
"Answer my question first." My expression was already showing impatience.
The servant didn't dare to talk anymore and immediately said, "Sir, there is less than an hour left before the auspicious time. His small status is low, and he is not the servants that Jiuer Master trusts the most. He has no chance to go to the wedding site to see it. The place where they hold the wedding is on the mountain on this island, which is easy to find, and there is only one building that you can see as soon as you get close."
"My job is to guard the island, to guard the exit. If there is any movement in the underground river at the exit, I will come and check it as soon as possible and welcome the news. You have made such a big noise. I am alone in this radius. How dare I disobey my life? I can only run to investigate quickly."
The servant told everything clearly. I felt a little moved and asked, "Do you know what is in the underground river?"
The servant shook his head hurriedly and looked at me with a look of fear, for fear that if I don’t know, I will kill him.
I glanced at him and had a scheming in my heart.
About ten minutes later, I put on a red servant suit and walked out of the hidden place. The servant was knocked unconscious by me and tied it to a tree. He stuffed his mouth to the safe side. I spared his life, but I would not leave any hidden dangers for my actions.
I sorted out my clothes and moved the bronze sword hidden in my clothes again, so that there was no flaw on the outside. I hung the servant's identity token on my waist, then I identified the direction and walked towards the mountain in the island.
The servant was a talkative person. In the past ten minutes, I asked him some more things. He wanted to tell me the color of the underwear that everyone knew about, which gave me a rough understanding of the situation on the island.
Speaking of this island, the rest of the place is normal. The most important convenience is that mountain. The servant naturally doesn't know what it is, but he knows that from entering the jungle and walking on the road to the mountain, there is a guard post every few places. The people stationed in it are not ordinary people, and at least they are nobles.
In addition, there were hundreds of servants like him, and even troops stationed everywhere on the island. In short, there was a stir, and the power that could burst out on the island was huge.
I am a little lucky that I just took down this servant and was not discovered by the patrolman. I am also glad that I took the servant to a remote place in time and received these important news. Otherwise, if I break in like this, I will definitely alarm the stationing forces on the island. It would be fine if I was afraid of it. Jiuer and his guests who were holding the wedding. At that time, if I just broke into this island, they would hide Xinyi or transfer the place in time.
In addition, I also know that Jiuer's guests are not small people. It is best to retain their strength before a fierce collision occurs and not cause any more troubles.
So I took advantage of the identity of a servant and prepared to make it to Jiuer's wedding.
After making up my mind, I couldn't hesitate and stepped into the jungle with big strides.
The one who climbs the mountain is a main road. There is such a main road from four directions of the island. As long as you are determined to search, you will soon discover this main road.
I didn't care, but instead walked on this main road carelessly. Only this kind of calmness would not arouse any doubts.
Sure enough, after walking less than a dozen steps on the main road, I met a guard post. Before I could get close to the guard post, I walked out of the guard post and blocked my way.
Obviously, my outfit and identity nameplate helped me. How could these aristocratic guards who were temporarily mobilized to know a servant from Jiuer? However, the servant's identity is low enough. Even if his identity is not suspicious, he is not qualified to go to Jiuer's wedding.
I was stopped for granted, but I didn't care. Instead, I looked at the two guards and said with confidence: "Two sirs, I was sent by Master Jiuer to guard the underground river. Master Jiuer specially ordered that if there is any movement, I must report it to him in person as soon as possible. This matter will not be delayed."
My words certainly won't cause any suspicion. I guess the previous movements and the close posts felt a little bit like this, but they just had the responsibility. They could not leave easily, and naturally they could not investigate them personally.
As soon as I said this, the two noble guards looked at each other and let go of the road, just urging me to go quickly, but after I took two steps, they stopped me again, and I felt a stern, could it be that the road was really not good, and I would have to kill it?
But unexpectedly, one of the noble guards walked back to the post and took a group of horses out for a moment, handed the reins to my hand, and said, "The matter of that underground river is not a trivial matter. You can ride this horse. This horse is a special breed raised on this island. If you ride it, no one will stop you."
Is there such a good thing? I was secretly happy in my heart, but I thanked him very much on the surface. I took the reins, but when I looked at the horse, I was shocked. Why are there such horses in the world? They are nearly a quarter bigger than ordinary horses, and their eyes are brown and red, as if they have red eyes. In addition, the horse's lips are a little outward, and the exposed teeth are not big teeth like herbivores. Instead, they look like tiger teeth, which looks very fierce.
"This horse is not easy to control. You should not use a whip to whip it along the way. It will naturally send you to the foot of the Holy Peak, but don't be impressed. If you want to ride this horse and rush around the island, I will remind you that except for this road, the rest of the island is not easy to rush around. There will be no burial place to die, so don't blame yourself for being wronged." The noble guard did not notice my expression and reminded me again when he handed the reins to me.
It seems that there are so many secrets on this island. I suppressed my curiosity and thought that it was important to do big things. Even I ignored why this strange horse looked like this. I just pretended to be afraid and said a few words in panic, so I did a little fearful look and turned over the horse.
At this moment, the noble guard patted the horse's neck and muttered a few words, as if it was a spell, and seemed to be talking to the horse. After reading it, he said to me: "I don't know if you dare, bring the news to Mr. Jiuer."
After saying that, he slapped the horse on the neck and the horse sped up, raising the smoke and dust all the way, and the speed was much faster than that of the usual horse.
As the noble guard said, I never encountered any obstacles along the way after riding this horse, although I saw more than twenty guard posts in the midst of the lightning, and I didn't mention the possibility of a secret post.
This made me feel very heavy and I didn't dare to think about how I could safely take her to the central square and meet with the Tong Emperor along the way, and that was no choice.
I just hope that Ada will respond to it at that time and everything will go smoothly.
I didn't think too much, I could only take one step at a time, and the horse was so fast that it had brought me to the so-called holy peak in just over a dozen minutes.
At this moment, someone finally stood up and stopped me. He was a demon with typical bear characteristics, and his figure was even more majestic than the white lion general I saw on 10th Street.
"The person comes to stop the road." He roared from a distance, and the sound was as strong as thunder rolling through the low altitude.
The fierce horse was shocked by the sound, and stopped suddenly and raised its hooves high. I subconsciously wanted to stabilize my body, but when I thought about it, I finally let go of the reins and fell from the horse in a mess.
