Chapter 1728 Speculation
"Cheng, do you think the people from the Fox Clan came to Qingcheng to ripen this seed?" The more Ji Xiaoyan thought about it, the more likely it seemed, "Since the Fox Clan has already If Sha City has formed an alliance, then they will definitely take action. Then, it is very likely that we, Qing City, will take action. It is their first target, so any visit they said is actually a lie. The real purpose should be to ripen the seeds and occupy our Qingcheng directly!”
“Let’s put it this way, I do think it's possible." Xingdila thought for a while and nodded seriously.
"It won't be so fast, right?" Ting couldn't help but be stunned, frowning slightly and said to Ji Xiaoyan and the others, "Qingcheng is not like those ordinary towns, the seeds require more power. If there is not enough strength accumulation, a There is no way a seed can swallow up all of Qingcheng?”
“Could it be that when the seed was planted, the Fox Clan had already accumulated enough power for the seed to mature? What?" Ji Xiaoyan couldn't help but ask.
Teng stopped talking for a moment.
There is a high probability that this may exist.
"No matter what, Lord Ji, just don't agree to let the Fox clan come to visit. Let's seize the time to find the seeds first!" Teng was silent for a long time, and spoke to Ji Xiao anxiously. After saying something and seeing her nodding, he immediately closed his eyes and carefully sensed his surroundings. After a while, he led everyone towards another block.
After the people in Sha City sent a letter to the Fox Clan, they waited for a long time without receiving a reply. They couldn't help but muttered, and then thought that there was no news about the things on the dragon in Qingcheng anyway. Sooner or later, the news will be spread. They are not afraid of the shadows slanting, nor are they afraid of people from the Fox Clan suspecting anything. So they did not do anything further, but directly sent another letter to the people of the Fox Clan, urging them to come earlier. Come to Sha City to sign a real alliance covenant.
Fei Ge’s message was sent out, and it was like a stone sinking into the sea. There was no more news from the Fox Clan.
At this moment, the Fox clan became a little angry after receiving the news that Qingcheng refused their visit.
“It must be those guys from Sha City.” The elders of the Fox Clan roared angrily, “It must be those guys from Sha City. They deceived us while telling us that the dragons assigned to Qingcheng had The things are gone, and Qingcheng is not allowed to meet with us, just to cover up their A shameful act. "
"What do those guys in Sha City want to do? They want to form an alliance with us but are unwilling to help us purchase the dragon. They want to take advantage of our Fox clan, but they don't help us. Do you want to do something?”
“The patriarch went to Sha City in person last time to pay his respects. "We, the Fox Clan, have already swallowed their anger. Don't they still think they are oppressing our Fox Clan enough? They are suppressing us while saying they want to form an alliance. This is their intention."
"Master Patriarch, we can't do it anymore. How could we allow the people from Sha City to bully our Fox Clan? Maybe it's not as deep as their Sha City, but we are freer than them! Without Ji Xiaoyan, they can't even have access to a small area like Sha City. There are so many powerful races and cities on this continent. We don’t necessarily have to focus on the evil city!”
The leader of the Fox clan couldn't help but frown as he held the page of the letter from Sha Cheng that he had just received.
As agreed at the beginning, Shacheng helped the Fox Clan buy enough things from the giant dragon so that their power accumulation of holy objects could be more sufficient. The Fox Clan would form an alliance with Shacheng and fight with them. Together they wiped out the mainland and finally freed the evil city from Ji Xiaoyan's curse. However, now the people in Sha City didn't even do the first thing for their Fox Clan, and even asked Qingcheng to refuse to meet with their Fox Clan, but turned around and kept urging them to form an alliance. Haha, do you really think that their Fox Clan are fools?
Why should they, the Fox Clan, form an unconditional alliance with Sha City? Just to find someone who can deal with the magic forbidden disk? Humph, there are so many people practicing pure martial arts on the mainland, and the Fox clan really doesn’t have to worry about finding partners to cooperate with! If that doesn't work, you can still find an adventurer! After all, isn’t the magic forbidden disk in the hands of the adventurer?
Thinking of this, the leader of the Fox Clan couldn’t help gritting his teeth.
"Clan leader, don't hesitate any longer. These people in Sha City are going too far! What kind of alliance is this? It's just to let us, the Fox Clan, unconditionally help them free Sha City!"
"That's right, if we really have to wait until the future, it's not certain that no matter how many cities and towns our Fox clan robs, they will all get them into their hands. By then, our Fox clan's work will not be in vain. The people in the city made wedding clothes? We, the Fox Clan, can’t do such a thing!”
The elders of the Fox Clan were crying and heartbroken, and their eyes fell on the leader of the Fox Clan. body, fearing that he would make the wrong decision accidentally.
"Don't worry, elders, I'm not that stupid." The Fox clan leader sighed, looked at everyone helplessly, and then said: "If Sha City is as we guessed, we Naturally, the Fox Clan cannot compromise and form an alliance with them, but we have to go to Qingcheng no matter what. One trip. Okay, let’s leave Sha City alone for a few days. After they get anxious, we can then go out to Sha City and put some pressure on them with the dragon thing. At the very least, we have to make the people in Sha City let us go. Let’s go to Qingcheng.”
The elders of the Fox clan looked at each other with a hint of disapproval in their eyes. For them, it would be best to break up with Sha City directly and end it in two! Why should they let the Fox Clan go to Sha City again to suffer?
"By the way, prepare two more seeds later. If we can enter Qingcheng by then, we will plant two more seeds in Qingcheng." The leader of the Fox Clan thought for a while and faced the elder of the Fox Clan. They said: "If we are forced to do so, we can still take out a seed to show the sincerity of our Fox clan to Lord Ji!"
The elders of the Fox clan were stunned when they heard this, and were instantly ecstatic after reacting.
Yeah, why didn’t they think of this.
When the time comes, they will plant the seeds in Qingcheng and discuss the conditions of cooperation with Ji Xiaoyan. Tell her the role of these seeds. Sacrificing just one seed will bring Qingcheng and their foxes back. opportunities for ethnic cooperation. After the fox tribe dominates the mainland in the future, they can use the remaining seeds to control Qingcheng.
What a perfect plan!
"The patriarch is wise!" The elders of the Fox Clan complimented them one after another, and they left the house of the Fox Clan Chief after a long time.
Qingcheng.
After searching for a day, Ji Xiaoyan and the others walked through most of Qingcheng but still could not find any trace of the Fox Clan seeds. Ji Xiaoyan had some illusions that the Fox Clan was really grateful and did not leave such things in Qingcheng. . But after thinking about it, I still think it’s impossible.
So, the next day, Ji Xiaoyan took Zheng out of the city lord's mansion again and walked towards the last area, where the Juli tribe who had been living in Qingcheng gathered.
The Juli clan has received the news, and their clan leader is personally waiting outside the gathering place to greet Ji Xiaoyan and the others. But Ji Xiaoyan waved his hand and sent them away.
“It’s not a patrol or anything like that, I just came to see if there might be anything left by the Fox Clan here. Clan leader, please don’t waste your time coming to accompany us and go back.”
The leader of the Juli tribe had no choice but to smile and disperse with the others.
Zheng looked at the aborigines of the Juli tribe with some curiosity, then looked at Ji Xiaoyan, and couldn't help but say: "The relationship between City Lord Ji and the Juli tribe is very good! City Lord Ji is really powerful to be able to truly subdue them!"
Ji Xiaoyan glanced at Zheng in confusion. She didn't know that Zheng knew more about the Juli clan than she did. For example, the magic power restriction disk that gives the Fox Clan a headache belongs to the Juli Clan.
Qing smiled and did not speak any more. Instead, she closed her eyes and began to feel.
Ji Xiaoyan looked at Xingdila angrily and saw that she shrugged at him in confusion, so he had to put down his doubts.
Suddenly, Ting's body trembled, and her breathing became rapid and she said to Ji Xiaoyan and the others: "I found a little breath. Lord Ji, come with me."
Ji Xiaoyan said Shocked, before he could react, he watched Ting run towards a street outside the settlement of the Juli tribe. He stopped and walked along the way, confirming that the seed of the human face tree buried by the Fox tribe was nearby. .
“Why is it buried near the Juli tribe?” Ji Xiaoyan was a little confused.
“A small seed is like an ant to the people of the Juli tribe. Even if they have seen it, it is not surprising, let alone buried in the ground. Even if it is turned over Come out, I guess these Juli people won't care. Burying here is indeed a good choice." Hearing Ji Xiaoyan's muttering, Cheng explained to her, "It's just that the Qingcheng is being renovated. Hasn’t the Li clan moved here? ”
"No." Ji Xiaoyan thought for a while and said with a look of enlightenment: "Our current area has basically not been moved. The other settlement of the Juli tribe has just been renovated. So, we have not found any tree species, but Because there is no renovation?”
“Then I can only say that City Master Ji, you are not very lucky.” Cheng covered her mouth and smiled, closed her eyes and took a deep breath, seeming to smell it. He noticed a vague and special smell in the air, and then led Ji Xiaoyan and the others a little further. After confirming over and over again, he pointed to the corner of a Juli clan stone house and said to everyone: "It should be here, let's just dig."
Ji Xiaoyan directly ordered the guards behind him without hesitation, and several people started digging along the corner with shovels.
“Right here?” Xingdila couldn’t help but ask.
"It should be here, but I don't know how deep it is buried." Ting nodded, with a look of certainty on her face.
Ji Xiaoyan looked around and couldn't help but frown.
If you really follow what Mr. Besa said, when the Fox Clan finally comes to occupy Qingcheng, it will definitely ripen the seeds of the human-faced tree and devour the entire Qingcheng. Then, how can this seed be destroyed? It should be buried in the center of Qingcheng! Why is it buried so remote?
The settlement of the Juli Tribe is not a good choice!
"I once saw the map of Qingcheng given to me by Lord Qianye. I remember that there was a moat here where the Juli clan used to live, right?" Zheng seemed to see Ji Xiaoyan's doubts and directly Asked her.
Ji Xiaoyan nodded, she still remembered this very clearly. Because a moat was built outside the city lord's palace during the original renovation, the chief of the Juli tribe came to her personally and said that he hoped to leave a small river for the Juli tribe to facilitate their use. The purpose of the Li tribe's settlement is to build a river for them.
"That's right." Cheng looked at the guards digging and said to Ji Xiaoyan: "If the human face tree species is close to the town stone, then it does not need other nutrients and can directly mature and grow; and If you are not with the town stone, then you must either find a place with strong magic power, or a It is a place with abundant water resources. The Juli clan used to be close to the moat, so it was a good choice. It’s a pity that City Lord Ji filled in the moat but did not renovate all the houses in this area.”
< br>Otherwise, the seeds of the human-faced tree left by the Fox Clan would have been found long ago.
Ji Xiaoyan couldn't help but sigh, and then said to Cheng optimistically: "Actually, there is nothing to regret. Isn't it because of you? It's just that I found you a little late. Think about it, It’s not a pity.”
Hearing this, Cheng glanced at Ji Xiaoyan: “City Master Ji, you are really optimistic!”
“What if?” Ji Xiaoyan smiled. rhetorical question.
Teng suddenly froze and stared straight at Ji Xiaoyan. After a while, she repeated blankly: "Yes, what else?"
Ji Xiaoyan blinked and looked towards Xingdila. , saw her purse her lips and silently shake her head at him, couldn't help but touch her nose, and didn't dare to talk to Zheng anymore.
Soon, several Qingcheng guards dug a large pit more than one meter deep in the corner. However, they still saw no trace of the seeds of the human-faced tree. They couldn't help but forget about it. come over.
“Keep digging, the smell has begun to get stronger.” Ting closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and said to everyone.
Ji Xiaoyan couldn't help but close his eyes and take a deep breath, then frowned and said, "Why don't I feel any smell?"
Ting covered her mouth and smiled and said: "City Lord Ji, that is something from our Fox Clan. How could you, an outsider, easily smell it and find it? Then do we, the Fox Clan, still need to secretly bury tree seeds everywhere? Still Don't plant it directly and then have it planted Keep guarding?”
“Yes! Haha!” Ji Xiaoyan couldn’t help but smile, watching the guards dig deeper and deeper until the two guards were completely submerged in the soil. After getting into the pit, I finally heard some noise.
“There seems to be something.”
The voice of a Qingcheng guard suddenly sounded from the bottom of the pit, attracting Ji Xiaoyan and the others to move over curiously, then a guard shouted loudly He raised his head and said to Ji Xiaoyan and the others on the ground: "City Lord, we dug up a white box."
After saying that, Ji Xiaoyan saw the guard hand over the white box from the soil. Come up
