PS: Bow and thank the deputy moderator "A Nameless Man" Deacon for giving away a valuable monthly pass, thank you!!

Since getting the three masks and leaving that town, Wang Sancai and Fang Tong's lives have become much simpler.

Still began to hoard food everywhere he went, hurried during the day, and found an inn to repair at night, and before he knew it, Wang Sancai didn't know if the food in his warehouse was enough to eat for a year or two.

However, in order to reach the front line faster, in some sparsely populated places, Wang Sancai threw Fang Tong and the carriage into the warehouse, but because the warehouse has a "cooling time limit" for living creatures, Wang Sancai could not throw Fang Tong and the carriage into it every day, but even so, compared to relying entirely on the carriage to travel, the speed of the two of them is still much faster.

Burning Stone City is in the southernmost part of the Zhou Kingdom, belonging to the southern boundary of the Zhou Kingdom, when passing through the national capital, Wang Sancai and the others did not stay in this place, because they only know from the local population that the king is not in the national capital now, and the entire national capital is now only supported by the "parliament".

Moreover, Wang Sancai also heard some news, except for the members of the council, all other important people went to the front line, and the head of the Bai family has always been imprisoned by the king in the front line.

From this point of view, the mysterious person with Bai Xiao must also go to Burning Stone City if he wants to find the Bai family patriarch.

After hearing these news, Wang Sancai did not stop in the prosperous national capital, and the deepest impression of the national capital to Wang Sancai was the tall castle with a construction area far larger than the Zhuang family's manor, and the tower that almost towered above the clouds.

Finally. Wang Sancai came to the final destination, the Burning Stone City.

It's just that what makes Wang Sancai depressed is that in addition to the above news, he doesn't know other news and situations.

Looking at the attic of the Bai family's mansion from a distance, Wang Sancai was not sure if the Bai family patriarch was being imprisoned here.

After all, there is also a prison in the Zhuang family's manor that leads to the forest outside, and Wang Sancai didn't see a separate prison in the mansion of Tuye City, so the prison here of the Bai family is not built in the mansion, and it is also a normal category.

The Burning Stone City was different from all the cities in Wang Sancai's impression. The city is because of its borders. It was surrounded by high walls, each of which was covered with sharp thorns to prevent enemy ladders from climbing.

When Wang Sancai entered the city, he noticed that the thick city wall could completely carry two carriages side by side on it.

Outside the city walls. There is also a moat that is almost twenty meters wide. If the enemy wants to attack. In addition to rowing, they could only attack the only road leading to the city gate, and it was only more than ten meters wide.

Only, in the middle of the city gate, there was a heavy bed crossbow on the wall. With the ramming wood used to destroy the siege city, on both sides of the bed crossbow, there are two rows of trebuchets, so it can be said that the city is absolutely well-equipped.

But before he entered the Burning Stone City, Wang San knew that the battlefield was not here at all.

Because, in addition to the heavily guarded and ubiquitous Imperial Forest Army in the city, the residents here actually live as normal, those who should buy vegetables, those who should sit in the inn and laugh are also talking and laughing, and even, Wang Sancai can often see children chasing happily on the road, how can there be a little shadow of war?

Wang Sancai felt that the king was not in the city at all, and the front line was still further south?

Anyway, he didn't see the slightest smell of gunsmoke, did it mean that Li Guo was attacked back by Zhou Guo instead? The real front line has become a certain city in the southern Zhou Kingdom?

Wang Sancai didn't know, so he could only go to an inn in Burning Stone City with Fang Tong to listen to the conversations of those guests, or ask the shopkeeper for news.

It's just that he found that the guards in the Burning Stone City were extremely strict, and everyone was very vigilant, he just wanted the innkeeper to inquire about the front line at random, but he didn't expect the shopkeeper's expression to change dramatically at that time, and he kept silent and immediately called the Royal Forest Army.

The Imperial Forest Army didn't say a word, and led a group of people to arrest Wang Sancai and Fang Tong for the reason of being a scheming, of course Wang Sancai would not be afraid of these ordinary people, but if he resisted, the meaning would be completely different.

Fortunately, the Imperial Forest Army only took Wang Sancai and Fang Tong to a secret room in the Bai family's mansion in Burning Stone City.

Wang Sancai couldn't have imagined that he would enter the Bai family's mansion so easily, but unfortunately, he didn't have any freedom when he entered.

After the Imperial Forest Army asked many strange questions, Wang Sancai and Fang Tong were released by them.

It's just that before leaving the Bai family's mansion, Wang Sancai still couldn't understand what questions the Royal Forest Army asked.

For example, the Imperial Guards once asked, "Can you kill two old hens in the family?" ”

And also...... "Are you tired of spinach these days?" ”

"When were the fingernails trimmed?"

……

What's the problem with this?

Wang Sancai and Fang Tong naturally didn't know what they were, the two of them looked at each other, except for being able to answer questions like manicures, the other questions didn't know what they meant.

But seeing the confused appearance of the two, the interrogating Imperial Forest Army was relieved, and after investigating the information registered by the two when they entered the city, the Royal Forest Army released the two of them, and when they left, they also threw down a sentence: "Don't ask sensitive questions next time." ”

Wang Sancai and Fang Tong are now standing on the avenue outside the Bai family's mansion, unable to figure out the strange question of the Royal Forest Army, Wang Sancai can only think that this is a way of temptation, however, what makes Wang Sancai very satisfied is that during the interrogation, at such a close distance, the other party did not see that the two of them were wearing masks and had fake faces on their faces.

It's just that, right now, people come and go here, the traffic is busy, it is very prosperous, and the residents are not indignant because of the fall of the Bai family, but still live a peaceful life, Wang San can't understand this, because, since he came to this world, he has found that the people on each family's territory have a very deep family concept, and when one family violates another family's land, the residents of the city will at least be indignant.

But what's going on in Burning Stone?

The Bai family's rebellion didn't spark the anger of the people in Burning Rock City?

"Xiaotong, isn't it true that when Bai Xiao's father was in power, the people of Burning Stone City hated him to death?" Wang Sancai scanned these details in the city in disbelief: "Otherwise, the head of the Bai family is arrested, why don't the residents here protest at all?" ”

"Impossible." Fang Tong vetoed: "Such a situation can only show one thing. ”

Wang Sancai's gaze couldn't help but stay on him: "What's the matter?" ”

Fang Tong glanced around, and saw that no one noticed his side, so he lowered his voice and said to Wang Sancai in a low voice: "Big brother, this situation can only show that the king did not treat the Bai family patriarch in a 'traitor' way, in other words, the Bai family patriarch is now treated very well, except for the restriction of freedom and the fact that his own territory can no longer be controlled by himself, everything else is safe." ”

Wang Sancai couldn't help frowning: "Isn't he a traitor?" Could it be that the Zhou State likes to use this gentle way to deal with traitors? ”

Fang Tong could only shrug his shoulders, shook his head and said, "I don't know about this." ”

Wang Sancai sighed, pondered for a while, looked at the happy people on the road who didn't want to do it, and said a little confused: "Xiaotong, now that Burning Stone City has arrived, but we don't have any clues, where do you think we should start?" ”

Fang Tong also sighed faintly, and said helplessly: "There is no way, I can only use the only strategy." (To be continued......)
