”Everyone, take a look. Is there something wrong?”

Wu Kong looked at the few people from the Yellow Country and felt that something was wrong. Their expressions were as if they were happy and content, as if they had completed a big task. They did not feel humiliated or worried about what had happened after.

The rest of them also felt that something was wrong. After looking for a while, Ye Yingtian seemed to have noticed something and shouted, ”Look, these people are so short! Shouldn't the people of the loess be strong and sturdy? But why do these few people look like ordinary people, and instead look like us from the Central Plains? ”

”I also feel that they are more like people from the Fire Nation.”

The short man who had been silent all this time also spoke up.

”It doesn't matter who it is, we have to check it out properly. After the crowd has dispersed, we will capture them and interrogate them. ”

Zi Ruo stroked her chin and pondered.

”I think so. We'll talk about it when Luo Liya and Wei Xi come back.”

As soon as Ye Yingtian finished speaking, black blood flowed out of the mouths of the few people on the stage. Their smiling eyes suddenly became empty.

Wu Kong quickly got up and flew over, ”Damn it!”

Everyone quickly flew up, but what they found was the ice-cold corpses of the group of people. ”We were too careless!”

Fu Dongming said in a regretful tone.

”This has nothing to do with being careless. These few people never planned to return alive.” Get someone to bring their bodies back to the City Lord's Mansion. We need to discuss this properly. ”

While everyone was feeling regretful, Luo Liya and Wei Xi had already returned. From the dead body in Xi Ri's hand, it could be seen that this person had the same ending as these people.

It seemed that they were planning on having a few days of peaceful days before embarking on a new journey.

The only consolation she felt was that she had the brocade handkerchief.

They returned to the City Lord's Mansion as fast as they could. Before they could enter the door, they saw City Lord Fu and Lady Xu welcoming them.

”What the hell is going on?”

With such a huge incident, the mayor must have long since heard about it. He had already sent people to pull those people back, but he still needed to personally ask them what was going on.

”Miss Luo, are you alright?”

Looking at his incoming mother, Fu Dongming wanted to say that he had nothing to worry about, but Lady Xu didn't even look at him. Instead, she went around him and grabbed Luo Liya's hand.

Luo Liya was rather open-minded and generous as she smiled and held Lady Xu's hand. ”Madam, I'm fine.”

”It's good that you're fine, it's good that you're fine. ”It seems like Dong Ming took good care of you.”

If it was said that those words had nothing to do with her, then these words made Luo Liya feel a little awkward. However, she only pretended that she didn't hear him and didn't say anything.

However, Wu Kong spoke up, ”City Lord, we've seen quite a few of the Yellow Country's citizens today, and they're actually causing a ruckus in the market!”

Wu Kong, like a child, had managed to focus Lady Xu's attention on him.

As expected, Lady Xu was extremely curious about the matters of fighting and killing. She walked over to Wu Kong's side at the sound of the voice and listened to him dance as he explained the events to her.

Luo Liya took the opportunity to bring everyone into the mansion.

After everyone sat down, the maidservants served tea and then left. After a few simple corrections, everyone arrived at the banquet hall.

The round table made of mahogany looked very formal, and the several people all took their seats. This could really be regarded as a major event in the city, so Mayor Fu also called the officials involved.

Fu Dongming took a sip of his tea and recounted the events of the day.

”If my guess is not wrong, these few people should be from Fire Nation. However, due to the extremely strong corrosive properties of the poison, their corpses had already rotted, so it was impossible to accurately identify them. But we believe that this should not be the doing of the Loess State. ”

In the end, Fu Dongming shared his thoughts. Everyone present was the main general of River Guardian City, if there was anything, they would have to explain it clearly to them.

”If they really are from the Fire Nation, with their current strength, they can easily invade the Jade Water Nation. And why have you come to our River City to make trouble while disguised as a countryman of the Loess Realm? ”

City Lord Fu expressed that he could not understand.

”City Lord, I think this might be Huo Yaoguo's plan. You know that when Dong Li Zhen is the most skilled at separation, there is always a reason for the war between nations. If I'm not wrong, Fire Blaze Nation should have already declared war on Yellow Plains Country. He only did this because he didn't want our Blue Water Nation to interfere. ”

When Luo Liya discovered that the peddler turned out to be from Loess Country, she had some doubts. However, she later heard from Ye Yingtian that this group of peddlers didn't have a figure like that of Loess Country's, so everything made sense. Haojin Kingdom and the Jadewater Kingdom had no relationship, but the Jadewater Nation travelled tens of thousands of miles to save the other country. Currently, the alliance between the Green Wood Kingdom and the Fire Nation was deeply rooted, so if they wanted to take down the Loess Kingdom, they would have to stop the help of the Jadewater Nation.

That was why Luo Liya had such a guess.

Fu Quan stroked his beard and nodded.
