The beginning of the king guards the Great Wall

Chapter 7 The Mysterious Alchemist
"Captain Zhao, defeated..."

"Such a terrifying trick was actually smashed by Jiang Ming?"

The soldiers couldn't believe it, their eyes widened and their mouths opened wide.

Looking at Jiang Ming's eyes full of awe.

At this moment, no one dared to underestimate Jiang Ming.

"I won, pay for it, pay for it."

Baili kept the promise and happily accepted 400 taels of silver.

The eyes completed the crescent moon, and he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.

With this money, he can hire someone to find his younger brother Xuan Ce.

At this time, Hua Mulan's beautiful figure jumped from the tall building.

Looking at Zhao Xiong who was unconscious, his eyes were extremely solemn.

After a while, his eyes shifted to Jiang Ming.

"You can feel that ominous black air."

"That's right, it's the breath of the demon seed."

Jiang Ming is the closest to Zhao Xiong, and he feels the most clearly.

The mysterious black energy that appeared in Zhao Xiong's body was the same thing as the breath of the demon seed released by the Silver Moon Wolf.

In other words, Zhao Xiong is very likely to be a spy planted by the devil in the army.

When Jiang Ming first arrived at the base camp of the guard army, on the first day he accidentally found out the spies hidden in the army, thinking about it, he was a little dumbfounded.

"Come here, put Zhao Xiong in prison."

As soon as Hua Mulan waved her hand, several soldiers dragged the unconscious Zhao Xiong down.

Waiting for him will be a torture.

"Could it be that the demon seed has penetrated into the guard army?"

Hua Mulan looked towards the direction of the desert, her pupils constricted slightly.

A bad premonition suddenly appeared in my heart.

. . .

The deepest part of the military prison.

The heavy and dim fog slowly surged around, and the cold instruments of torture were stained with mottled blood, creating a terrifying atmosphere that made it hard to breathe.

Those who are being interrogated here are all criminals who have committed the most serious crimes.

On the cross-shaped pillar, Zhao Xiong was tied with five flowers, tied like a zongzi.

There is not an iota of movement below the neck.

Whoa!
A bucket of cold water was poured over his head.

Zhao Xiong was alert all over and woke up suddenly.

The scene in front of me is very familiar, but it used to be interrogating others, but now it is the one being interrogated.

"General Hua..."

Seeing the three people on the opposite side clearly, Zhao Xiong showed a bitter look on his face.

Needless to say, his secret must have been exposed.

Damn Jiang Ming, how dare he plot against me!

Zhao Xiong realized later that he already knew that Jiang Ming was deliberately provoking him so that he would show his feet.

Looking at Jiang Ming, his eyes were full of resentment.

Regarding this, Jiang Ming touched his nose indifferently.

If you go astray by yourself, it's none of my business.

"Zhao Xiong, I think you know exactly where this place is, tell me honestly, and save yourself the pain of flesh and blood."

Glancing at Zhao Xiong, Hua Mulan casually took out a blood-stained bone-scraping knife from the torture box.

The blade flickered coldly, which was shocking.

"I said it, and I said it all."

Zhao Xiong spoke hastily, with a frightened expression on his face.

He didn't want to try the instruments of torture here.

In this prison, prisoners have no human rights like pigs and dogs. As long as they can speak, any cruel punishment is allowed.

Many prisoners were as stubborn as anything, and refused to reveal a single word. As a result, they confessed everything in just one stick of incense.

It can be said that this place is more terrifying than hell.

"A mysterious alchemist approached me half a year ago and promised to teach me to master the power of demon seeds."

"Mysterious alchemist? Do you know his name?" Hua Mulan frowned and asked.

"I don't know, but he always holds a rose-shaped magic weapon."

"The alchemist holding the rose magic weapon..."

There are many human alchemists in Yunzhongmo, but Hua Mulan has never heard of the alchemist holding the rose magic weapon.

"Go on."

"He gave me a black pill, and after I took it, my strength doubled." Under Hua Mulan's gesture, Zhao Xiong continued tremblingly, "But this strength is not stable, so I have to take a pill every month. "

"and then?"

Hua Mulan seemed to have guessed something, her pupils slowly narrowed.

"Then...we made an appointment to meet once a month, he gave me the pills, and I gave him the status of the defense forces."

Zhao Xiong's voice became softer as he spoke, and in the end it was as loud as a mosquito.

Selling military intelligence is a crime of beheading in any dynasty.

But he would rather simply die than suffer from torture to extract a confession.

"No wonder the monsters always find our weak points in defense. Damn Zhao Xiong, how many lives have you killed your comrades!"

Hua Mulan stared at her beautiful eyes, her pretty face turned cold.

The dense aura spread, and the surrounding air seemed to be frozen.

Because of Zhao Xiong's betrayal, at least tens of thousands of guards died at the mouth of the demon, how could she not be angry?
I can't wait to crush Zhao Xiong to ashes!

Fen clenched her fists tightly, raised her eyebrows, and Hua Mulan was trembling all over.

At the same time, a sense of self-blame came from the bottom of my heart.

The spy was right by my side, and I didn't realize it.

If I could have found out earlier, there would not be so many innocent soldiers who died in vain.

Damn, damn it!

"Sister Hua, what should Zhao Xiong do?"

Looking at the heinous Zhao Xiong, Baili Shouyue looked angry.

Among the dead guards, there were many friends who had crossed paths with him.

If it weren't for Hua Mulan's presence, he even wanted to shoot Zhao Xiong in the head.

"Heinous crime, beheaded in public!"

A look of coldness flashed in Hua Mulan's eyes, and she immediately sentenced Zhao Xiong to death.

Although she is a daughter, she is domineering and courageous, not losing to a man at all.

A real heroine does not give way to a man.

"General Hua calm down, it is not suitable to execute Zhao Xiong now, at least not in public."

At this time, Jiang Ming, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke.

"how do I say this?"

Hua Mulan and Baili Shouyue looked at Jiang Ming at the same time, their eyes full of doubts.

With Zhao Xiong's crime, beheading the capital in public is light, and it should be done with a thousand swords.

But Jiang Ming actually said not to kill Zhao Xiong?

Jiang Ming is familiar with the background story of the Continent of Kings, which is equivalent to opening the eyes of God.

After listening to Zhao Xiong's words, he has roughly guessed the identity and intention of the mysterious alchemist.

But he can't say too clearly, otherwise it will inevitably attract suspicion.

After pondering for a while, Jiang Ming said slowly: "The mysterious alchemist is a human being but has the power of the demon seed. He is very likely the culprit behind manipulating the demon seed. This person must be eliminated, otherwise the Great Wall will never be peaceful."

"Since he will meet with Zhao Xiong every month, we might as well use our tricks and catch him when he shows up next time."

"In order not to startle the snake, Zhao Xiong not only cannot be killed, but also make people think that he is doing well, so that the mysterious alchemist will not suspect him."

After hearing Jiang Ming's words, Hua Mulan fell into deep thought.

Zhao Xiong deserved to die, but the soldiers who killed him could not be brought back to life.

It's better to use him to find out the mysterious alchemist hiding in the dark, so that many sacrifices can be avoided.

In fact, the reason is very simple, and Hua Mulan would definitely think of it in normal times.

It's just that she was so angry just now that she only thought about executing Zhao Xiong, ignoring his useful value.

After a long time, she raised her head and looked at Jiang Ming approvingly.

"It's still your thoughtfulness, just as you said. Keep the promise, do you have any opinions?"

"No, I also think Brother Jiang Ming's proposal is perfect."

Baili Shouyue shook his head and said.

After calming down, he also thought of this.

"Okay, that's it."

Hua Mulan nodded, then looked at Zhao Xiong with threatening eyes.

"Zhao Xiong, I'll give you a chance to commit crimes and make meritorious deeds. If you dare to make a small move, you will be dealt with directly by military law. Do you understand?"

"Little man understands!"

Zhao Xiong nodded vigorously.

He thought that he was going to die, but he never thought that he would suddenly have a chance to survive.

I was so excited that tears almost flowed out.
