Chapter 1614 God's Gaze
Chapter 1614 God's Gaze
More than a month ago, Bai Shiliu stayed in Julu Port with several divine servants. Through the recruitment notice on the ghost market bulletin board, he joined several rebel teams designated by Bai Ziqi.
Of course, there are people who do bad things in the name of the Black Armor Army, and there are quite a few of them, but this is not Bai Ziqi's goal.
The several rebel armies he selected were all in the Gold Plains eliminating evil and dividing the money to help the poor. The more dedicated ones could even complete ten battles within thirty days. The villains they eliminated were both big and small, and their philosophy was "do not leave evil uneliminated, no matter how small it is."
But if you walk at night so frequently, the possibility of encountering ghosts is very high.
The rebel army that Bai Shiliu joined fell into the enemy's trap while they were taking action - Bai Ziqi knew how the trap was set - the number of enemies was three times more than expected, and they were ready to attack at any time. The rebel army failed to launch a sneak attack and was surrounded and annihilated, suffering heavy losses.
However, its leader Miao Yesen also had some experience. He led his army into the mountains and took advantage of the complex terrain of the woods to deal with the enemy.
This round of negotiation lasted three days.
The local tyrants and evil gentry on the Golden Plain hated the rebel army to the core. After finally gaining the upper hand, they were determined to capture Miao Yesen and skin him alive to scare the other peasants.
Just when the situation was critical and the rebel army had been surrounded with nowhere to hide, the Black Armored Army suddenly appeared behind the enemy like a force of gods descending from the sky!
Bai Shiliu was really eagerly waiting for them.
Needless to say, the Black Armored Army rescued the rebels and killed more than 200 enemies, even beheading the enemy leader.
This black-armored army consisted of only thirty riders, but they were fearless, fierce and ferocious when killing people.
Miao Yesen and others were rescued by their idol, and of course they were filled with gratitude and admiration. They knelt down on the spot and wanted to join the Black Armor Army, but were rejected by their idol.
Then, the black-armored army turned around and left.
This is their usual style, coming and going like the wind, and not talking to the rebels.
The Black Armored Army is experienced, so when they retreat they will of course check whether there is anyone following them or using tracking skills.
But Bai Shiliu still tracked him down!
The reason is simple, he uses divine arts instead of easily detectable supernatural powers.
After the Black Armored Army appeared, Bai Shiliu immediately ordered one of his men to turn against them and attack the Black Armored Cavalry.
The Black Armored Army had just arrived and had no idea that this man was originally in the Rebel camp. Of course, they treated him as an enemy without a second thought and shot him through the heart!
However, this divine servant of the Heavenly Palace was endowed with the magic of "God's Grace".
The gods would cast this magic on their favorite followers, occasionally casting a concerned look. If the follower was killed, the mark of the magic would stick to the murderer and become "God's Gaze".
That’s right, it’s the golden thread that is invisible to humans. Both General Hong and He Lingchuan have cut it off.
The existence of God's gaze can enable God to track the whereabouts of the murderer.
In this scene, the black-armored soldier was marked by the divine servant at the cost of his life without knowing it.
The gods can then track this mark.
The key to the success of this magic is the fanatical believers who are willing to sacrifice their lives for it.
What Bai Ziqi was most concerned about was where the Black Armored Army went after the battle.
"This mark was active near the east of Wutian Town, and then went to Jixing Town and Kushitan?"
Of course, Bai Shiliu also went to Wutian Town in person, and then found out that this "black-armored soldier" actually worked in the town's carriage and horse shop!
When Bai Shiliu saw him, he was brushing his horse, with a pile of hay next to him that was taller than a man.
Bai Ziqi couldn't help but laugh: "What a good job."
The personnel turnover rate in the carriage and horse company was very high. After all, they could come and go in a carriage, and disappear from a place for ten days or half a month without arousing suspicion.
Born with an invisible body.
Bai Shiliu had been with Bai Ziqi for a long time, so he knew to check the background of this carriage and horse business without any orders from his superiors.
"It is said that it was opened by Liu, a wealthy man in the town. I will dig deeper!"
"Fu Hu Liu?" Bai Ziqi couldn't help but shook his head. Emperor Jiuyou was almost the most difficult target he had ever investigated. Uncovering his hidden identity was like peeling an onion, layer after layer.
How many people were there in Liu Fuhu's carriage business? Bai Shiliu roughly estimated that there were about 200 people, all of them strong men, because the drivers often had to act as porters to help customers load and unload goods, and if they encountered bandits on the road, they might have to fight.
In the eyes of others, the fact that Liu Fuhu's carriage and horse business was a bit large meant that his business was good, so they would not be too suspicious.
But in the eyes of people like Bai Shiliu, this number is just right.
When did Liu Fuhu start his business, when did he open this carriage and horse business, and what is his main business now? He is just a businessman. Once he is targeted, the answers to these questions can be found locally.
Bai Ziqi said solemnly: "Tell Bai Shiliu to be careful and not to be discovered by the target."
When daybreak came, Bai Ziqi ordered his men to pack their bags and prepare to leave Mangzhou and return east.
The servant boy asked, "Master, which way shall we go back?"
"Let's go to Fuwei River and take a boat." Bai Ziqi said, "The water route is the shortest."
I looked back before leaving and saw that the night-blooming cereus that had bloomed in the yard for one night had withered.
This kind of surprise will not last long.
The next evening, they arrived at the Ivory Wharf at the mouth of the Fuwei River, with the surging river in front of them.
The name comes from the fact that the river bay and the pier together form the shape of an ivory. This is a very busy waterway, with merchant ships and passenger ships coming and going every day. Currently, there are more than 30 large and small ships moored at the pier, some of which are unloading cargo and some are disembarking passengers.
Bai Ziqi had already witnessed this kind of excitement when he arrived.
The servant took the token and the temple certificate to the dock. The ten ships they had taken had been waiting in the bay, and no one dared to move no matter how busy the dock was.
Soon, ten ships were ready.
Bai Ziqi then got off the carriage and walked leisurely onto the dock surrounded by the crowd.
Merchants and passengers on boats at the dock and river bend all stopped and stared at them blankly, wondering from where this important person had come.
Bai Ziqi glanced across their faces and looked lightly into the distance.
This section of the river was the best ambush route, and most of the 300 guards were on other boats. When they arrived in Zhu County, they would not have such favorable conditions.
Will his enemies miss such a good opportunity?
\\\\\
While Bai Ziqi was investigating the case in Mangzhou, Yao Ting also officially announced to the whole country that the Emperor's Jiang would erupt in eleven days at the earliest and thirteen days at the latest, and asked the people to prepare themselves.
It is difficult to accurately determine the time of the Emperor's eruption, and how long it will last is also unknown. This forecast is the result of multiple revisions and is a few days later than the original version.
From this we can see that the arrival of Emperor Liujiang this time is very unusual, the cause is very complicated, and even the initial estimate of the gods was wrong.
Chapter 2 is still being revised, please come back around pm~
