This warrior is so fierce

Chapter 308 Probing
On the southern outskirts of the city, Xiaotao Town.

Cao Su traveled with Tianwusi and arrived here again.

On the ten mile slope outside Xiaotao Town, the peach trees have gradually withered.

The fallen peach blossoms covered the green hills, and the residents who were rebuilding their homes could be seen in the faint smoke.

If you can go deep into the town, you can still find traces of the fire.

Tianwusi walked with the imperial army and took control of this place three days ago.

Most of the warriors are just executors, and they don't know why they came here. It looks like they are going to perform martial arts in Xiaotao Town.

The leader of Tianwu Division is a deputy governor.

"Tianwu Division Governor Yuan Zongshang is still in Ruzhou to suppress the rebellion, and Tianwu Division's big and small matters are all handled by Deputy Zhen Luo."

Qiu Bai stood next to Cao Su, and several of them belonged to the seconded personnel of Tianwu Division, and they stood relatively outside.

The town is basically full of people from Tianwusi.

A large number of Gongwei people in python suits and tiger suits appeared in the town, controlling every inch of land in the streets and alleys.

The residents of the town trembled, not knowing why so many officials from the capital of God came.

What happened, so serious?
Is it a few days ago?Or is it purely because the flowers in Xiaotao Town are blooming?
The residents closed the gates tightly, and occasionally observed the situation on the street through the cracks in the doors.

"Cao Baihu!"

While Cao Su was chatting with Qiu Bai, a group of cavalry galloped over from the town and rushed in front of Cao Su.

Qiu Bai immediately took a step forward, reaching out his hand to block the billowing smoke and dust for Cao Su.

"What are you doing so fast?"

Qiu Bai immediately reprimanded him "dog-legged". The cavalryman took off his mask, reined in his horse, hovered, and clasped his fists and said, "Cao Baihu, please, Master Zhenfu!"

Luo Liang looking for him?

When Cao Su's task was assigned before, it was relatively simple, that is, sit around Xiaotao Town, the guards are stable, and now you have to give a new task?
He pondered in his heart, and took a step with the knife in hand.

Responding loudly: "Let's go!"

……

On the green hill outside the town.

Three thousand forbidden troops are stationed here, the flags of the forbidden army are flying high, swords and guns are like forests, and soldiers are in groups.

Leading the army came Luo Liang, the school lieutenant of the Forbidden Army and the deputy governor of the Tianwu Division of the Arch Guard Division.

Luo Liang was wearing bright white silver armor, surrounded by personal guards, sitting on a tall horse, overlooking Xiaotao Town.

Looking at Xiaotao Town from here, you can see the topography, houses, etc. at a glance.

Cao Su came with the cavalry.

Luo Liang observed Cao Su silently.

The first impression I saw of Cao Su was that he looked like a fierce general. He was extremely tall and burly, with strong arms and indifferent eyes.

It doesn't seem like a human, but a lion that devours people.

"Luo Town."

Cao Su cupped his fists at Luo Liang.

Luo Liang nodded and said: "Sure enough, he is a veteran general in the army, with extraordinary momentum."

"Luo Town is overrated."

Cao Su smiled faintly, and wildly guessed in his mind what Luo Liang wanted to do.

Luo Liang said, "There is something I need you to do."

"Luo Zhen, but it's okay to say."

"Starting tomorrow, Xiaotao Town will be banned. Today, the Arch Guards searched for the evil spirits in Xiaotao Town, and also asked your masters from the Jingyao Division to investigate."

"However, there is a lake in the south of Xiaotao Town. This lake is called "Qingxi Lake".

When Luo Liang mentioned Qingxi Lake, Cao Su's heart skipped a beat. He was familiar with this lake. The water monster that Du's family encountered earlier also came from this lake.

Is there anything tricky in this lake?
What does Luo Liang mean by this?
"The banning of Xiaotao Town is a major event. There should be no surprises. Qingxi Lake is vast, so I intend to increase manpower to search for it."

"You are the master of Jing Yaosi, and you have repeatedly solved major cases. This time, you are the main force in mobilizing people to investigate Qingxi Lake."

When Cao Su heard this, he understood that he had to do one more task today, to investigate Qingxi Lake. Although he was not the only one to investigate, he was the main force and had to lead people to investigate.

What can be found here?

Although Cao Su didn't care about it in his heart, he responded: "Relief envoy, don't worry, discipline Qingxi Lake is clean and free from any evil spirits."

Luo Liang nodded in satisfaction when he heard Cao Su's statement.

After he told Cao Su some more things, Cao Su left this place, found Qiu Bai and four others, and went to Qingxi Lake to investigate.

……

Qingxi Lake is not too big.

No matter it is compared with the Daye Lake beside Yincheng, or the lake Daze north of Guyue City, they are much smaller.

The border of Qingxi Lake can be seen with the naked eye.

At this moment, many people from Tianwu Division had already gathered, and there were several fishing boats floating on the lake, and the fog was thick.

After Cao Su arrived, a general banner of Tianwu Division came to see him.

"Cao Baihu, the brothers have already searched and found nothing wrong."

Cao Su walked to the edge of the lake. The water in the lake was very clear, and the aquatic plants in the lake could be seen clearly.

"Cao Baihu, get on the boat and have a look, if there is anything tricky, it must be in the lake."

"The monster in the lake, the ghost in the water, the lake is rising three poles a day, and there is still such a steaming mist, maybe there is something really strange about it."

Several people under his command couldn't express their feelings.

Zhou Wei snorted coldly, and walked to the lake, muttering something.

Dao rhyme immediately condensed on her body, and the blue hair rose without wind.

"Our Daoist Zhou's "Delusion-breaking Eyes", this is one of the most famous Taoist techniques in the Taoist Palace."

A few warriors didn't understand Taoism at all, and commented randomly on the sidelines.

All of them nodded in agreement.

It seems to understand the same.

"disease!"

But I heard Zhou Wei whispering.

He drew a circle in his hand and slapped a palm. After being released, a halo expanded rapidly and printed on the surface of the lake.

There were fluctuations on the surface of the lake, and the aperture was immersed in the water of the lake.

Zhou Wei withdrew her mana and frowned slightly.

"how?"

Cao Su stepped forward and asked.

Zhou Wei answered him in a low voice: "There seems to be some resistance under the surface of the lake. My Falling Cloud Palm should not only hit this deep."

"Yes, Falling Cloud Palm is pretty good, and the lake is indeed a bit deeper. I'll take a look later."

Cao Su nodded slightly, his expression unchanged.

The people behind him also laughed awkwardly.

"The last time I came to this lake, it didn't look like this. What happened to this lake?"

Zhou Wei sensed some problems, but she wasn't sure.

"Get on board."

Cao Su didn't say much anymore, and directly ordered everyone to board the boat.

……

The fishing boat drifted into the middle of the lake.

Cao Su stood at the bow of the boat, holding his knife and silently sensing around.

Warriors have strong aura and have their own perception ability.

After entering the fourth rank, this perception has been significantly enhanced, and Cao Su can clearly perceive the movement tracks of creatures within a depth of ten feet below the water surface.

There are fish, there are shrimps... aquatic life is active in the water.

There is still a thin mist floating above the water.

"Cao Baihu, have you found anything?"

With outsiders present, Zhou Wei would address Cao Su as an official.

Cao Su looked at her suspiciously: "What about the Taoism you refined last time, can't you investigate it in depth?"

"You mean "Delusion-Breaking Eyes"? That's the Pupil Art of Huiling and Soul Absorbing. The effect of detection is average. The biggest effect should be to help the caster get rid of falsehood and reach the realm of truth-seeking."

Zhou Wei explained a little bit.

Cao Su nodded: "Yes, I understand."

The person who listened carefully with his ears pricked up also nodded his head quickly, silently scanning his illiteracy.

"To explore this lake, you need to use stronger perception. It is rumored that fourth-rank warriors can attach their spirits to their weapons and use them together with their inner strength to achieve the effect of spying on everything. Why don't you try this trick?"

Although Zhou Wei is a cultivator, she has profound knowledge and is proficient in both martial arts. The "Luoyun Palm" before was also a two-way Taoism born out of martial arts.

Using mana can become Taoism, and using internal strength can become martial arts.

"This trick can indeed be tried, but it's not the right time yet. There is an anomaly in the lake. The eunuch must already know something, otherwise he wouldn't call me to find it."

"I intend to gather everyone together and explore the center of the lake together."

In fact, Cao Su has not yet mastered this move proficiently, and the time he has entered the fourth rank is still short.

Jing Yaosi's detection methods generally rely on the martial arts induction or the powerful Taoism of the ascetic.

Cao Su felt that it was possible to strengthen the exploration of the place that Zhou Wei felt strange just now, and gather everyone together.

With more warriors, Qi and blood gather together, and the effect is more obvious.

Cao Su is currently the highest-ranking officer in the investigation of Qingxi Lake, and the others are military officers such as General Banner and Xiaoqi. In addition, he was appointed by Luo Liang as the leader of the investigation of Qingxi Lake. , everyone gathered immediately.

Except for a few members of the Tianwu Division who said they were too far away and would not come here for the time being.

"It's clear that we didn't pay attention to our Cao Baihu!" Qiu Bai was furious, feeling angry for Cao Su.

"Don't mind them."

With a flash in his eyes, Cao Su led the crowd to gather in the center of Qingxi Lake.

"Everyone, there may be some situation in the lake, let's use the Qi machine to sense together!"

Following Cao Su's order, dozens of warriors circulated their blood and internal energy.

A series of air machines immediately drilled into the lake, and the entire lake seemed to be stirred up by someone, with vortices of different sizes appearing.
