Suiyuan County is only one day away from the battlefield, not far.

If it weren't for Liu Da's slow horse and at Jueying's speed, he would have actually arrived in half a day.

When I came to Suiyuan County, I found that I rarely saw people in broad daylight. Logically speaking, farmers were working in the fields at this time, and the shepherd boys must walk in the wild. The woodcutter should also go up the mountain to log wood. At least pedestrians should walk on the road, and the village women who wash clothes by the river were not there.

You can see some farmhouses opening windows, and someone heard the sound of horse hooves quietly looking at them.

This is just a scene when you enter a small border village in Suiyuan County, which shows the fear that the "monster" has caused to the local people.

Liu Da led the way, and the two continued to move forward, passed through several villages and towns, and finally arrived at the county area.

When he learned that Ning Ze was coming, the magistrate of Suiyuan County quickly brought people to greet him and saluted him respectfully.

Suiyuan County surrendered at the latest after Ningze Army came. I thought there would be no intersection with big names like Ningze, but who would have thought that such a thing would happen?

The county magistrate was a little embarrassed. On the one hand, he had to surrender under pressure and had no sense of belonging to China. It was difficult to be natural when facing Ning Ze's expression. On the other hand, he had to ask Ning Ze for help. He was not the kind of person who was eloquent and could observe his expression.

Fortunately, Ning Ze did not care about his attitude, and came here just to verify whether it was "monster" and to verify whether it really existed. Therefore, he said: "Gu heard that there were monsters in Suiyuan County and five people have been harmed, so he came to find out the truth! Liu Da has informed the monsters, may there be other omissions?"

"Report to the prince," the county magistrate replied with his fists, "The county does not have a deep understanding of monsters, which is probably related to the strange things that happened a long time ago. To be ashamed, several county magistrates have investigated the cave here, but no one has seen the monster with his own eyes, only knowing that the cave is dangerous, and the entry will undoubtedly die. Since the accident, no one has approached again, and they have been in peace for many years. Who would have thought that the monster suddenly came out of the cave recently and killed five people overnight, which is extremely terrifying. The officials have ordered the people in the county to minimize going out, hoping that the prince can catch the monsters as soon as possible so that everyone can live a safe life."

"Can the corpse be there for those who were killed by monsters?" Ning Ze asked.

The county magistrate replied: "The weather is hot and the bodies are all broken. After the Xiaguan ordered the coroner to check, he found a place to dig a hole and buried it! The prince can check the content written by the coroner, and any details have been recorded and no omissions are left!"

"Dig a hole and buried it?" Ning Ze cared about these four words more, so he asked, "The family of the deceased did not claim it and took it home for burial?"

"Report to the prince, the five victims are not locals." The county magistrate replied, "Perhaps they passed by, and the officials had ordered people to issue notices in the surrounding towns, asking their families to come as soon as possible. No news has been received yet, and they do not know the victim's true identity. According to their clothes and items they carry, they are probably ordinary people."

"Oh?" Ning Ze asked him to get the coroner for an autopsy report. After carefully checking, he asked, "Can't anyone know the victim in the entire county?"

"Yes! The officials have done their best and have not yet been found out."

"According to the coroner's report, were they killed in different locations on the trail outside the city?"

"Yes! All suspicious traces at the scene are recorded."

"Apart from these five, are there anyone else killed during their lonely arrival?" Ning Ze asked.

The county magistrate responded respectfully: "The officials asked the people to stay at home as much as possible, and strengthen military patrols near the city. Fortunately, there are no more victims. However, the people in the county cannot hide at home all the time. Everyone has to support their families. If the monsters are not removed for a day, they will feel uneasy! Please ask the prince to take action and subdue the monsters in the cave!"

"You're so sure that the monster comes from the cave?"

"The Xiaguan has already sent someone to investigate. There are footprints of monsters at the scene, all facing the direction of the cave. There is no possibility except the monsters in the cave!" said the county magistrate, "The prince has worked hard all the way. The prince will take you to the city to rest and hold a banquet to greet the crowd. After the prince rests, then make plans."

"Since there is a monster that causes disaster, I should subdue it as soon as possible." Ning Ze shook his head, "Take me to the scene of the incident!"

"Here!" The county magistrate wanted Ning Ze to go over and subdue the monster, and immediately took the lead.

The group came to the northwest corner of the county town and stopped at the sheep intestine path leading to the deep mountains.

The location of the five victims' accident was not far away. After carefully investigating the scene, all the clues were recorded in detail without missing out. Moreover, there were footprints on the ground, which looked very similar to the poisonous lizard dragon, and there were obvious differences.

Ning Ze carefully observed these footprints and felt that it was a little inconsistent, but he couldn't tell where there was a problem, and he couldn't judge what kind of creature the other party was through these footprints.

I saw all five accident sites, but no new discoveries were found.

It seems that only by going to the cave they mentioned in person can we find out what the so-called monster is.

Thinking of this, Ning Ze said to the county magistrate: "Since all the clues point to the cave, I walked up and found out personally. You are the one who is in front of you!"

When the county magistrate and other Suiyuan County officials and generals, including those county soldiers, heard this, they all showed fear and were obviously unwilling to get to the cave.

Seeing this, Ning Ze said to them: "Why should you be afraid of being alone here? Even if a monster really appears, you can still keep you safe!"

While speaking, he directly summoned the Iron-backed Crocodile Dragon, the Strange Winged Mai, the Ancient Ant Scorpion, and the Poisonous Lizard Dragon.

Seeing these four majestic pets, including "Shui Bo", everyone at the scene became extremely awe of Ning Ze's eyes, and at the same time dispelled the fear in their hearts, and finally let go.

By the way! The person in front of him is Ning Ze, the king of Danyang, who has the power of heaven.

Even Shui Bo was subdued, including these monsters that looked very terrifying, and they must be a problem in the cave. With such a powerful person, what else can I be afraid of? This is a god-like figure!

So the county magistrate personally led the team, surrounded Ningze and set out along the Yangyan Path, heading towards the deep mountain cave.

A group of people walked for most of the day and finally arrived at a certain mountain.

The county magistrate pointed to the area where rocks overlapped and dense trees on the mountain, turned to Ning Ze and said, "Prince, the cave is there! The surrounding area was burned out by the demon fire, but now it can't be seen. No one dares to come here, and now there are trees in a forest."

Ning Ze nodded, feeling an unpleasant smell nearby, and the stench was not very strong. He thought someone was farting secretly, so he frowned and didn't care: "Let's go, take Gu to the cave."

"Here!" Ning Ze was much more courageous. If he hadn't been with him, he might not have dared to come with a hundred courages.

Everyone took Ning Ze to the top of the mountain. The more they went up, the more odor the more they smelled, and the more disgusting it was.

Many people covered their mouths with their sleeves in the middle of the journey, suppressing the discomfort and continuing to move upwards.

Ning Ze realized that the stench I just smelled was probably not someone farting, but coming from the mountain. It was even very likely that the source was in the cave, so he asked: "This place is extremely smelly. Is it because of this? Is this the phenomenon after a monster appeared recently?"

"Report to the prince, it is the first time that the officials have come here." The county magistrate replied, "But the former county magistrate once said that the hunter incident was earlier, and the person who went up the mountain to investigate also smelled a foul smell, suspected that it was produced by monsters in the cave."

Ning Ze couldn't help but frown, thinking that it was not an ancient bed bug, right? If a huge ancient bed bug really came, it would be better not to catch it. Not to mention the enemy, he would not be able to stand it.

However, this smell smells different from the bed bugs I remember. What I have to say is like the kind of toilet that is so dirty that it has not been cleaned for several years, which is extremely pungent.

When the group came to the entrance of the cave, they could still see the burning traces of the ages in the surrounding stones.

The smell of the hole was even stronger and it was so rushing towards me that many people couldn't stand it and retreated, covering their mouths and noses and wanted to vomit.

Ning Ze couldn't help frowning, thinking that there was such a virtue that he really had a biological odor, and he couldn't even stand being close to him. How could he take it for himself? Just destroy it directly!

"Prince, it's here!" The county magistrate suppressed the odor and pointed at the entrance of the cave. "I heard from the older generation that the monsters in the cave have a strange smell, so it's not wrong!"

Ning Ze opened the virtual map and found that there were no red dots around, especially in the cave area, where there was no presence of a hostile unit.

If there are really dangerous creatures in the cave, they will definitely be displayed.

This made him wonder. After careful consideration, he turned to look at the county magistrate: "Are there any other possible places around besides this place?"

"Prince, this is the place where monsters are most likely to be hidden! And those footprints are also pointed here." The county magistrate replied, "Probably the monsters are in the cave, otherwise how could such a big smell come from?"

The accompanying officials and soldiers nodded, feeling that there must be something wrong with the cave.

Ning Ze felt something was wrong. The system would not go wrong. Since there were no hostile units inside, it proved that there was no so-called monster. If that thing was really inside the cave and emitted such a strong odor, why was there no record in the coroner's post-mortem report? The victim should have some odor on his body!

And those footprints, no matter how you look at them, you feel that they are inconsistent...

"Prince," as he was thinking, the county magistrate came over, "I may have been used in the cave to magic. Your magic power is so powerful that you can have a magical method to break the magic? The old man once said that a long time ago, a hunter was swallowed by demon fire. Someone tied up a living chicken, duck, pigs and sheep into the cave, and after coming out, they all died inexplicably. The cave was pitch black and there was nothing to see. If you can use magic to break it, you can go inside and find out!"

As you speak, you need to take out the fire fold.

A possibility emerged in Ning Ze's mind and quickly grabbed the fire note from him: "No!"

The county magistrate was startled: "The general only wanted to light a torch. It was too dark inside, at least illuminating the entrance of the cave."

"Let me listen to Gu, no one is allowed to create a spark!" Ning Ze turned around and shouted loudly at everyone present.

"Prince, why is this?" the county magistrate asked curiously.

"I thought that there must be biogas in the cave! If there is a little spark that appears, it will definitely cause a fire, or even an explosion, and no one can survive!"

"Ah?!" Although I don't know what the biogas is, everyone's face changed drastically when they heard that a fire might lose their lives. They all nervously watched the fire, fearing an accident.
Chapter completed!
