A Romantic Beauty Around Imperial City

"Miss Qian Li is right." And then … The few of them began to discuss some of the details.

When the time came, the three of them dived in according to their previous plans.

The paths inside were very complicated. After the three of them agreed on where and when to meet up, they split up into three smaller paths.

The path that Qian Li took seemed to be deserted and uninhabited, but she firmly believed that this kind of strange place would allow them to discover the truth of the matter.

As expected, not long after she left, she saw a familiar face in a room.

Looking at the little old man in front of him, Qian Li only felt that she was incomparably familiar with him.

This was because she'd seen this person before at the border.

Oh, no, to be exact, what she saw should be this person's stone statue.

He was the one who was being passed down by the villagers in the town, the Mayor who was willing to risk his life for everyone's safety and even pay a price for it.

Qian Li squinted her eyes, her mind working extremely quickly. If the mayor was not dead, then why did he do this?

Very quickly, Qian Li thought of the crux of the matter.

The mayor seemed to be living a good life here, and Qian Li had even seen someone treating him with respect. This meant that, even in this place, his position was not low at all.

So...

It was because of this that he wanted to protect this place from detection.

That being the case, the reason he did what he did before was to confuse them and scare them away, so that they would never come back to this place again.

Thus, the fact that the villagers had previously said that his body had disappeared after being thrown into the desert could be denied.

He did not disappear, but used a certain method to act out a play in front of everyone.

The purpose was to make the crowd cower in fear.

And the bloody words he left behind. It was a good way to kill two birds with one stone.

On one hand, he could let his immortality last for a hundred years, and on the other hand, he could reach an unspeakable secret …

Thinking about it, Qian Li suddenly felt afraid.

He didn't know why his father and mother's corpses were at this place, but it looked like it wasn't a simple place.

As she thought of this, a bit more worry arose in her heart. Qian Li took a step forward, and in a few flashes, she was already far away.

From the information he had gathered, this place was specially used to imprison people from the royal family for very serious crimes.

But even after searching for a long time, Qian Li still could not find any traces of imprisonment.

However, this could barely be imagined. The war had just ended not long ago, and in these few years, the princes and princes of the imperial family had just grown up, so they didn't have the time to commit any heinous crimes.

Therefore, there weren't any prisoners here, so it wasn't that strange.

But since no one was being held, why had the number of soldiers on patrol never decreased?

In the end, this place did indeed have some kind of unspeakable secret. Or was there really something that needed to be protected?

And those so-called imprisonment words from before were actually just a pretense?

While he was thinking, a person suddenly appeared in front of him.

Qian Li was extremely frightened, but she was probably just a waiter. When she saw Qian Li, she quickly covered her mouth and broke her neck.

Qian Li dragged the man to an empty room, and after quickly changing their room, he tied up the man and threw him under the bed.

When everything was ready, she walked out again.

Only then did she realize that this place was actually quite large. It was like a manor, and the facilities inside were very perfect.

And Qian Li realized one thing that was beneficial to her was that no one here spoke a word.

When he met someone, he would only nod or show them his plate.

For a moment, Qian Li was going to suspect that she was in the wrong place, but when she saw the second person lying on the ground and realized that there was no tongue in his mouth, she suddenly understood something.

With the clothes and order badge, it looked like there would be no obstructions on the way, but after going through a few people and not revealing any loopholes, Qian Li started to search room by room.

However, after searching for a long time, he came up empty-handed.

The rooms and courtyards here were truly numerous.

Qian Li's memory was very good. The roads she walked through and the houses she had seen before did not repeat themselves, but for some reason, she just felt that these houses could not end in any way.

Helpless, she could only hold someone hostage again.

"Speak, where's the bodies of the Prime Minister and his wife?"

There wasn't much time left, so Qian Li directly chose the most direct method. However, she had forgotten that the person in front of her couldn't speak at all.

His eyes were filled with fear, and upon seeing Qian Li, he felt that it was even more unbelievable.

Qian Li also finally realised that not only were the waiters silent, they were actually ordinary people who did not even have any martial arts. This was also the reason why she was able to kill so many people in a row so easily.

"It doesn't matter if you don't say so. Write it down."

Qian Li pulled everyone to the back of the line, so that they would not reveal any flaws.

That person seemed to be afraid of death, so he really started writing.

"We are all from nearby towns. We were unintentionally captured here after entering the desert. Miss, if it is possible, can you save us?"

Regarding his words, Qian Li sympathized, but did not feel pity.

The people in the town had told her that those who wanted to enter this place, with the exception of a few who truly did not want to live, wanted to become rich overnight.

They always felt that there was a secret in the desert, and they even felt that the death of the mayor was a conspiracy. That's why they thought of ways to get in.

So towards them, Qian Li did not feel the slightest bit of heartache.

She also didn't want to casually make promises that she didn't want to do.

So Qian Li asked, "Where's your tongue?"

"The Mayor was afraid we'd tell the story about this place after we ran away by accident, so he cut our tongues."

"Then... Didn't you all think of fleeing? "

The man nodded, "Of course there are. However, those who escaped previously all died miserably after being captured. After a while, no one dared to escape."

"Tell me, where is the prime minister's wife's corpse?"

"Hearing this, the man only felt extremely confused, he said." I've been here for more than a year, but I've never seen any corpses. "

Qian Li was instantly enraged.

Perhaps it was because he was angry from embarrassment, or perhaps he was too anxious.

"I'll give you one last chance. If you don't tell me the truth, I'll immediately send you to see the King of Hell."

No one would joke about their life, except those who didn't want to live.

The man in front of him seemed to be afraid of death.

He shook his head crazily and tried his best to write out his thoughts.

He said, "I really haven't seen any corpses, but there's a secret room in the fifth room in the backyard. After going in, we'll go into a cave. It's said that there's a secret inside."

"What secret?"

My qualifications is still shallow, so I have not entered that place before. However, this place was told to me by a senior that came in before the town, and I have also personally seen them enter before. It is very strange, and every time they see someone enter or leave, they will always have bottles and jars in their hands.

"Should I believe what you say?"

In reality, even if Qian Li did not believe, she had no choice but to believe, so when she saw the person in front of him nod her head frantically, Qian Li knocked him out immediately.

Following that, she used the same method as before to tie his hands and feet. After stuffing him with food, she threw him into a hidden place. After confirming that he wouldn't be discovered, she then walked towards the place he mentioned.
