Chapter 366： Orange's past

After a while, Carol, who was still dressed in armor, was led by Ed and reappeared in front of Lei Xiao.

At this time, when the female garrison captain of Shuiyue City saw Lei Xiao sitting on the upper throne.

He hurriedly bowed and saluted, with a more respectful expression than before: "See your lord!"

Undoubtedly, it is self-evident that this young big man's status can be made to give up his seat to the Lord of the City.

Moreover, when in the enchantment area.

The powerful energy displayed by this big man has left a deep impression on her, which can only be described as horror!

"Captain Carol needn't be more polite."

Raising his hand slightly, Lei Xiao picked up the white porcelain cup beside him, and first took a sip of the fragrant tea that Faxia had just brewed.

Then he said: "I heard that you once served under the command of General Shengguang Ju Bai. How much do you know about this general of the Kingdom?"

"Sir, when General Jubai just became a captain, the villain was already under her command."

On the other side, Carol lowered her head again and responded unreservedly: "For many years.

We have experienced nearly 100 battles from the infallible fortress in the extreme north of the Cold Flame Kingdom, to the rainforest fortress in the extreme south, and to the border battlefield between the east and the Holy Night Kingdom.

It wasn't until General Orange returned to the capital and was named the general of the kingdom that he was forced to separate.

Because the high-ranking dignitaries in the royal capital obviously do not want a kingdom general to have too many cronies by their side, which will undoubtedly threaten their power. "

"I see." Nodding slightly, Lei Xiao gently put down the teacup in his hand and continued to listen.

"My lord, because General Orange is only the adopted daughter of the earl family, she was originally from a commoner.

Later, by virtue of his military exploits, he got the title of aristocrat, belonging to Leng Yan's cutting-edge aristocracy.

Therefore, it has always been unpopular with other kingdom generals with orthodox noble blood, as well as the dignitaries in the royal capital.

Of course, let alone trust, this is also an important reason why the villain was forced to leave the capital. "

I saw that Carol still kept her head bowed and saluted, and continued to introduce.

"Understood." Hearing this, Lei Xiao looked thoughtful while staring at the steaming tea cup beside him.

Judging from the information we currently have.

Regarding the origin of General Shengguang Ju Bai, it is undoubtedly similar to the previous situation of the great axe general Bert, and they belong to the unpopular existence in the capital.

It is no wonder that these two will eventually choose to follow the weakest Princess Ariel.

Thinking about this, Lei Xiaoluo pondered, and then asked: "Captain Carol, what else do you know about the other circumstances of General Shengguang's orange white?"

"Master, as far as the villain knows, General Jubai has an enemy in the Lengyan Kingdom. However, due to various reasons, General Jubai has been unable to kill this enemy."

On the other side, Carol's arrogant face was full of solemnity, and she continued to respond.

"Oh? Is there such a thing?" Hearing this, a curious expression appeared on Lei Xiao's face, signaling Carol to continue.

"Sir, this matter has to start from the life experience of General Orange."

At this moment, Carol took a deep breath and said, "Just like what the villain said just now.

General Orange White was originally an orphan who grew up in a monastery in Red Arrow Town.

Later, she was fortunately adopted by the family of the city lord of Chijian Town, who had no children, and she officially became the adopted daughter of the Earl's family, and received the vigorous training of the family.

However, although the city lord of Chijian Town is a noble family of counts of the Cold Flame Kingdom.

But the family has long since fallen, and the land of Chijian Town itself is barren, and it is just a little-known fishing town.

Therefore, in terms of financial resources and strength, compared with the territories of other nobles, they are undoubtedly pitifully weak.

However, General Orange's own cultivation talent was extremely outstanding, which made Chijian Town famous at that time. "

"So Ju Bai was born in Chijian Town?" Hearing this, Lei Xiao couldn't help showing a pondering color.

Lei Xiao once knew some information about Chijian Town.

This town, located in the southeast of Mailan Town, just south of the ruins of the ancient battlefield, is a town built by the river.

And the river next to the town is exactly the downstream of the swift river between the territory in the forest and Kongqing Town.

Therefore, the location is not very far from their own territory.

Just when Lei Xiao thought of this.

On the other side, Carol's eyes were sad and she continued: "However, even if it is such a small town that is not rich, it is still coveted by people with ulterior motives.

In the end, he was killed for the residents of Chijian Town and the family of his adoptive parents of General Orange White. "

"Captain Carol, are you referring to the bandit raid five years ago?"

Hearing this, after pondering for a moment, Lei Xiao suddenly showed a bright look.

He murmured to himself in his heart: "I remember hearing that Xuan Yue, who is Mailan Town, mentioned it.

Five years ago, Chijian Town, which was about three days away from Mailan Town, was a large-scale robbery by bandits.

As a result, the garrison, including the city lord's family, was completely destroyed, until the Leng Yan royal family re-divided the town into the jurisdiction of other nobles.

As for the specific situation at that time, Xuan Yue did not know. After all, there was an ancient battlefield surrounded by mountains between the two cities, and there was almost no communication between them.

However, the incident five years ago was indeed a sensation in the surrounding area. "

"My lord, in fact, the time five years ago was not a robbery by a bandit, but a group of professional soldiers."

On the other side, Carol took a deep breath and said, "Back then, after I learned the news.

In addition to being shocked, General Orange White, who is still the captain, took some of our cronies and returned to Chijian Town to investigate.

At the beginning, after asking the residents of the town, we learned that the sudden group of attackers were indeed all dressed up as ordinary bandits.

However, after these people broke through the city gate, they rushed directly to the city lord's mansion, and the goal seemed to be very clear, which immediately aroused our suspicion.

After all, compared to the most heavily guarded City Lord's Mansion, the wealth of the few wealthy businessmen in the area combined is definitely not a small amount.

But until the group of menacing bandits managed to leave, they didn't take a step closer to the other mansions. "

"Indeed." Hearing this, Lei Xiao nodded slightly and said thoughtfully: "It seems that this so-called looting is just an illusion."

"What the lord said is very true." With a light sigh, Carol continued: "After we deduced that something was wrong, we were only suspicious, and there was no substantive evidence.

Finally, until we stumbled across a surviving wounded soldier in a resident's home.

According to the wounded soldier with lingering fears, the bandits were not only powerful but also ruthless.

Moreover, the organization is well-organized and the command system is perfect. Obviously, he is not an ordinary bandit.

More importantly, during the fight, the wounded soldier also recognized several so-called masked bandits, who were the elite soldiers from the neighboring city of Songta City! "

"Pine Tower City?" Hearing this, Lei Xiao once again showed a thoughtful expression.

Regarding Songta City, he also heard Xuanyue introduce it.

This medium-sized city, located in the south of Red Arrow Town, is already closer to the border between Leng Yan and Holy Night.

In the surrounding area, the strength can be said to be extremely good, the existence of contempt for the heroes.

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao rubbed his chin and said thoughtfully: "So, those so-called bandits are actually all the elite soldiers of Songta City pretending to be?"

"Sir, that's exactly what happened," nodded slightly, Caroday frowned, and continued: "After that, through a series of investigations, we learned.

It turned out that the attack happened two weeks ago.

Marquis Rocky, the city lord of Songta City, once discussed with the adoptive father of the city lord of Chijian Town, General Orange White, about raising water monsters, bead monsters, in the waters of Chijian Town.

This kind of water-type magical beast, the magic beads produced in the body, are the necessary materials for the refining of several first-order potions, and the value is very good.

However, his adult strength is at the first-order peak level that is unmatched by ordinary people, and he is extremely violent and ferocious.

In history, there have been many cases of self-rewarding because of breeding such vicious beasts.

Therefore, the adoptive father of the orange-white city lord naturally would not allow such a ferocious beast to appear in his city.

Compared with a large amount of wealth, the adoptive father of the orange city lord obviously cares more about the safety of the residents in the city.

Having said this, Carol sighed again and continued: "But it is precisely because of this that this declining earl family has ushered in a disaster."

"In this way, after getting rid of the orange adoptive father who was in the way.

Later, the person who took over Red Arrow Town must be the guy who has something to do with the Marquis of Rocky, or simply the Marquis of Rocky himself?

Moreover, there must be a large number of dangerous magic bead monsters in Chijian Town now. Opposite, Lei Xiao, who was sitting on the throne, nodded slightly and pondered.

"What the lord said is right."

On the other side, Carol still nodded sadly, and then said: "At present, the jurisdiction of this city falls into the hands of the Marquis Rocky family.

And after the large-scale cultivation of magic bead monsters in Red Arrow Town, it has also become a cash cow for Marquis Rocky's family.

Although a large number of residents of Chijian Town lose their lives every year, all of this will only become the after-dinner talk and jokes of these big people.

All in all, after a series of investigations, General Orange and some of our cronies have finally determined that this is what Marquis Rocky did.

This seemingly sanctimonious hypocrite not only completely slaughtered General Orange's adoptive parents' family.

Moreover, the monastery where General Jubai grew up, who fought with the City Lord's Mansion until the last moment, will be burnt to the flames, which is extremely cruel.

Let General Orange, who had lost his home once, lost his second home again. "

"Understood." Hearing this, Lei Xiao frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "If I expected it to be good.

The reason why Ju Bai didn't kill the enemy first and now, presumably the power behind the opponent must be huge, right? "

"Your Excellency is right again." With a slight nod, Carol continued: "Behind this Marquis of Rocky, the one standing is the Highness of the Lengyan Royal Family!

In addition to its own strength, it is also at the level of a fourth-order senior powerhouse, almost on a par with General Orange, and there are many experts around.

Therefore, although General Orange clearly understood that the enemy was right in front of him, he still had no choice but to grit his teeth silently and keep everything in his heart.

What's even more irritating is that under the repeated questioning of General Orange White, this guy actually admitted what he did, and then laughed out loud without any scruples..."

Having said this, Carol clenched her fist tightly, and her arrogant face was full of anger.

"So that's how it is." Hearing this, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, then waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's go here, Captain Carol go back to rest early."

"As ordered, my lord." On the other side, Carol gave Lei Xiao and Ed a salute, and then left with clasped fists.

After a while, in the hall, only one's subordinates were left.

Lei Xiao, who had a plan in his mind, first drank the tea in the cup, and then asked Ed to call the three elders of the Fuyue Family.

Next, after some beatings and shocks, he watched the three elders leave with terrified faces.

Lei Xiao and his party were under the guidance of Ed.

In the banquet hall of the castle, I ate some seafood dishes with the characteristics of Shuiyue City, and then I randomly strolled around this charming tourist city.

Finally, he returned to the hall just now.

In addition, in the process, Lei Xiao also gave Faxia and A Bing, who had not returned home for a long time, a few hours of leave to accompany their families.

"City Lord Ed, everything about Shuiyue City will be handed over to you. If you have anything, please contact me in time."

At this time, I saw Lei Xiao nodded slightly towards Ed, who was standing respectfully, and then signaled the other subordinates to gather around him.

"As ordered! Lord Lord, please rest assured!" Hearing this, Ed hurriedly bowed and saluted with a respectful expression on his face.

"Okay, then we'll leave." After he finished speaking, Lei Xiao's mind moved, and a crystal of returning to the city that felt cold to the touch suddenly appeared on the palm of his hand.

Next, without any hesitation, Lei Xiao crushed the cyan crystal stone he just took out.

The next second, the strange energy inside the crystal swept out in an instant, and immediately enveloped Lei Xiao and his group.

With the passage of time, under Ed's watch, the cyan light curtain around Lei Xiao and his party began to grow thicker.

Finally, I saw a flash of white light, and the people in front of Ed's side had completely disappeared in the hall.
