Chapter 1958 New Clues
Emperor Shijing replied calmly: "No."
Nan Zhiyi looked at him in confusion and asked, "Are you so sure?"
Emperor Shijing smiled and said, "Why do you think we have been able to move around for so many days without any problems? It's because the military in Border City ignored us. As for the reason... you should be able to guess it."
Nan Zhiyi pondered for a few seconds and immediately came to a conclusion, "Is it because of the senior brother?"
Emperor Shijing nodded, "That's right, the contributions that Senior Brother made to Country G in the past were convincing people with virtue, and many people respected him, including those soldiers.
Those soldiers are grateful people, and they certainly won't do anything to take advantage of others' misfortune at this time."
Nan Zhiyi understood that the medicines developed by the senior brother in the past had alleviated countless soldiers' pain, saved countless lives, and saved countless families every year.
Now that the person is missing, those people naturally hope to find him as soon as possible.
So we turn a blind eye and pretend not to see it.
Nan Zhiyi found it extremely ironic that those who received even a drop of kindness knew how to repay the favor.
When it came to the royal family who benefited the most, they were ungrateful and instead killed them all. They were simply ungrateful.
However, Nan Zhiyi was also relieved. At least without the obstruction of the military, things would be much easier for them and they could conduct a thorough carpet search.
Nan Zhiyi was still confused and asked, "This problem has been solved, but why hasn't Jiang Mojue come back yet? He's been gone for so many days and there's no news at all."
Emperor Shijing also found it strange, but he couldn't get in touch with them now, so he could only say, "Wait a little longer... maybe they discovered something and that delayed them."
Nan Zhiyi nodded, "Okay."
This is all I can do for now, wait a little longer...
However, the two never expected that Jiang Mojue would be gone for a week.
During this period, Emperor Shijing and Chu Yao went out again, but they didn't see anyone return, nor did they meet them.
Chu Yao couldn't help but frown and said, "I can't contact the people he brought with him, and no one came back to report that they were safe. Is there any danger?"
Nan Zhiyi was also a little worried. "I haven't found my eldest senior brother yet, and now I've lost another one. It will be hard to explain to my third senior sister when I go back! What should I do?"
After hearing this, Pei Yan asked, "How about I take some people to go and find them first."
Just as he finished speaking, one of his men came running over to report, "They're back, they're back... The people Young Master Jiang brought back are back."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Shi Jing immediately took people out to check.
It was indeed the two men that Jiang Mojue had taken away who had returned. They looked very disheveled, and their clothes seemed to have been torn by tree branches. It seemed as if they had traveled a long way and were very tired.
Now he is sitting there panting, drinking water and resting.
Nan Zhiyi walked over and asked impatiently: "Are you two the only ones back? Where are the others?"
Chu Yao also asked: "Yes, why are there only the two of you? Where is Mo Jue? Why didn't he come back? Did something unexpected happen again? "
Seeing that there was no sign of Jiang Mojue, everyone's heart was in their throat, and they were all afraid of accidents.
The two men finally caught their breath, and one of them waved his hands hastily, "No... no, Young Master Jiang is fine. We were ordered by him to come back for help."
The other one drank several gulps of water in succession, slowed down, and then said: "Snake... Such a big snake... We encountered a very big snake deep in the forest..."
"What???"
When these words came out, everyone present was stunned.
Nan Zhiyi even thought of the rumors about the B&B owner.
Isn't that the one?
She quickly asked, "How big is it?"
The subordinate gestured with his hands, "This thick... The deeper you go into the forest, the worse the environment is. Moreover, there are poisonous snakes everywhere. We encountered a python this big... It was more than ten meters long."
Nan Zhiyi breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
It's ok, this level is still within the normal range, not as exaggerated as the B&B owner said.
Emperor Shijing also spoke up and asked, "It's normal to have snakes in the primeval forest. Did you encounter any? Were you attacked?"
The subordinate replied, "Yes, we were attacked by the snake. Not only that, we found some remains of primitive tribes deep in the valley. At the entrance of the valley, there are two large stone pillars with many ancient and special totems carved on them.
Looking from a distance, you can see something like a flag hanging high.
And we also found that there seemed to be some traces of activity in that place!"
Could this be the primitive tribe that the B&B owner mentioned?
Nan Zhiyi's heart moved, and he asked hurriedly: "Is it a trace of human activity? Could there really be a primitive tribe there?"
The subordinate shook his head and said, "We can't be sure about this. When we found the traces, we planned to investigate further. Just when we reached the place similar to the entrance, the snake appeared.
It is not possible to determine whether it is a trace of human activity or an animal. "
"What happened next?" Chu Yao asked.
The subordinate continued to answer: “Later, our people frightened it, and the giant python began to chase us. We were busy dealing with it and quickly evacuated the place, and we didn’t have time to pay attention to other things.
After evacuating to a safe place, Young Master Jiang immediately ordered us to come back and seek help.
Jiang Shao's judgment was that if there really was a primitive tribe in that place, then Mr. Lu might have accidentally entered that area while chasing that group of people.
So, he wanted to grasp this clue and continue to explore that place to see if he could find Mr. Lu there. "
After hearing this, Emperor Shi Jing understood the specific situation and said, "If this is the case, then we should indeed investigate it thoroughly."
It seems that the rumors told by the B&B owner before are not groundless.
Maybe there really is a primitive tribe that raises poisonous insects and snakes, and the destination of the eldest brother and his friends is there. Maybe people are already there.
Nan Zhiyi agreed and nodded, "Anyway, this is the only clue at the moment."
She turned to ask the two men, "So what do we need to prepare?"
The two men immediately said, "Young Master Jiang said that we need some drugs that can deal with the various poisons in the forest, as well as anesthetics that can make the giant python sleep. The giant python is very troublesome to deal with, it is very fierce, and it is very fast, and its fangs are also very scary.
Before that, it was Young Master Jiang who reacted quickly and shot the snake with his gun, and then it ran away, allowing us to escape.
If we want to go in and look for someone, we must make all kinds of preparations in advance, otherwise, there may be unnecessary casualties."
After hearing this, Nan Zhiyi nodded immediately and said, "The medicine issue is simple. Leave it to me and Fourth Senior Brother. We can get it done this morning. You guys take a good rest first, so that you can lead the others out later."
Then, she looked at Emperor Shijing and said, "Go and count the men. Can you bring more people this time?"
