    This young man is naturally Zhang Tie.  Even Zhang Tie did not expect to see such an ugly scene in the maple forest of Helan Mountain today. In these days, he has seen many loyal ministers and martyrs in the Anxi Governor's Mansion, and he still did not forget to see many people who were fleeing.  Strange people supporting each other, Zhang Tie felt indescribably disgusted when he saw these people.  The maple leaves in the forest were red, and the blood of the corpses lying on the ground dyed the ground red in the blink of an eye. It was sad, cold, and cruel The secret technique of hypnosis and soul control in the "Blood Soul Sutra" is used in  These few little people were just trying to kill a chicken with a knife, so Zhang Tie didn't even need to use his hands, he only needed to use his mouth to let these dirty little people finish it off on their own.  Butler Li used a dagger to pierce his own heart, and he died with his eyes open. Before he died, he turned his pale eyes and stared at the sky.  Wherever there are people, there is greed and betrayal, but when such greed and betrayal were displayed in front of him in such a bloody and cruel scene, when masters and servants, wives and concubines began to plot and kill each other, Zhang Tie was stabbed.  For a moment, looking at Butler Li's expression when he died, Zhang Tie suddenly couldn't help but think of a question in his heart - there is always an ugly side in human nature. Will he encounter such betrayal because of other people's greed?  This question made Zhang Tie tangled in his heart for a while, but then, Zhang Tie shook his head and threw the question to the back of his mind. It was the Holy War at the moment, and there was really no need for him to worry here.  Although Butler Li's strength is low and he is like an ant in Zhang Tie's eyes, his mind and skills are quite terrifying.  It is true that Zhang Tie did not read much and had even less knowledge about medicines and elixirs. Therefore, until this time, if Butler Li did not explain it clearly, Zhang Tie would not know that long-term consumption of potassium iodate can make people less energetic.  I never knew that the potassium iodide used to supplement iodine in Chinese table salt before the Cataclysm had been replaced by potassium iodate by the demons and the Three-Eyed Society.  Isn't this kind of knowledge too unpopular for most people? Even if Zhang Tie is a knight, he has no knowledge of the knowledge and history before the catastrophe.  Not every detail is clear.  Zhang Tie only knew that when he was in Heiyan City, because Heiyan City was an inland iodine-deficient area, he often bought things like firewood, rice, oil, and salt for his family, following his mother's instructions.  Among the salt that my family buys every year, two bags are iodized, and the iodine added is indeed potassium iodide, not potassium iodate. Even if it is potassium iodide-added salt, my mother controls the kitchen and the family's food.  People at home are not allowed to eat it often.  But this thing is a last resort. Zhang Tie just thought about it for a moment and then threw it away. For Zhang Tie, he wanted to know the harm and impact of potassium iodate on the human body, or he wanted to know more clearly about the demons and the three-eyed  How they manipulated Chinese salt before the catastrophe.  It's very simple. In the realm of soul calamity in Xuanyuan Hill, there is the Human Race Alchemist Guild. In the database and database of the Human Race Alchemist Guild, there must be the most authoritative and professional documents and research materials in this regard. Zhang Tieruo  If he wanted to understand these contents, he only had to visit the Soul Tribulation Realm.  Or, you can just ask his brother Zhang Yang directly. His brother Zhang Yang is also an alchemist after all, so he has knowledge in this area.  It is also a hundred times better than this Butler Li.  But, that¡¯s not necessary!  "No matter how many books you read, what's the use if you don't follow the right path?" Zhang Tie sighed.  He bent down and took out the golden ticket from the butler.  "These people deserve to die because they are guilty, but the money is innocent. There is no need to waste it. The butler does not have many gold tickets, only about 600,000 gold coins."  This amount of money is really nothing to Zhang Tie today, but in the eyes of ordinary people, these more than 600,000 gold coins are already an astronomical sum of money, enough for a lot of people to hang their heads for it.  He has used his brains to do many things that are inhumane. Countless refugees are now fleeing to the interior of the Anxi Governor's Palace. The Zhulong Territory has begun to accept refugees from the Anxi Governor's Palace. This money has also  Is it enough to build a market town so that 50,000 to 60,000 refugees can have a home and start a new life?  Of course Zhang Tie is willing to bend down and allow fifty thousand refugees to have a place to stay. Zhang Tie is not that aloof, and he is reluctant to drink more rice wine for a few copper coins a bowl for someone who has grown up in a civilian area.  As a person, Zhang Tie knows better the power of money in crisis and troubled times.  After throwing those golden tickets into the Black Iron Castle, Zhang Tie did not stay here anymore, but walked towards the depths of the maple forest. This chance encounter was just Zhang Tie's visit to the Helan Mountains in the past two months.  Encountered an ugly performance that exposed the dark side of human nature.  Zhang Tie certainly didn¡¯t come here just to watch this performance.  "All this can only be said to be a coincidence that couldn't be more coincidental. In this maple forest, there are absolutely no people like those who died"Everyone sees the same thing, only sugar maples that let them taste the syrup. This maple forest is full of dangers. It can be said to be the most dangerous place in the Helan Mountains. It is definitely not those who have hundreds of thousands of gold coins in their eyes.  People can see clearly At this moment, in Helan Mountain, in addition to knight scouts like Zhang Tie and others, there are also a large number of other human warriors. These human warriors are observation posts and field operations placed by the Black Armored Army in this area.  The scouts have the same mission as Zhang Tie. They are also the eyes and ears of the Blackwater Base on the ground in the Helan Mountains. Because there are more observation posts and field scouts, the information they pass back to the Blackwater Base can be sent back to the Blackwater Base.  To a certain extent, it can complement and corroborate the information sent back by Zhang Tie and others. Sometimes these observation posts and field scouts find traces of local knights, and can also send them back to Blackwater Base to warn Zhang Tie and others through Blackwater Base. Therefore,  , these observation posts and field scouts are also one of the indispensable forces in the Helan Mountains - the so-called holy war, it is not just knights who fight on the battlefield.  Zhang Tie received a remote sensing communication from the Blackwater Base two days ago. The remote sensing communication told Zhang Tie that in the area in the Helan Mountains at the junction of Yunze County in Huanzhou and Jishi County in Wuzhou, there have been a large number of people in the past two weeks.  The human observation posts and field scouts disappeared in this area and completely lost contact with the Blackwater Base. Just the day before yesterday, there was even an Earth Knight who was also sent by the Blackwater Base to patrol this area and snipe the demons - he and Zhang  There is also no news about one of the twenty earth knight scouts in Youzhou who Tie Yiyi stood up for.  As knight scouts, including Zhang Tie, even if nothing is discovered every day, as part of their responsibilities, they must send a message to the Blackwater Base to show that they are still alive and at their posts. This is also one of the means of early warning for knight scouts.  First, it is a warning with life, and if an Earth Knight has lost contact with the Blackwater Base for two days without any reason, and there is no information, then there is a high possibility that the Earth Knight is already in danger.  The situation in this area in the Helan Mountains was not good, and Zhang Tie's main inspection and garrison area was adjacent to this area. The Blackwater Base directly sent an order to ask Zhang Tie to come and check to see what was wrong with this area.  .  If it were other knights, it would not have been possible to lock down a problematic place in such a mountainous area of ??nearly 700,000 square kilometers. It would not have been possible in ten or eight days. Zhang Tie also used all his strength after receiving the task.  The answer was that it took two days to focus on this mountainous area with an area of ??more than 20,000 square kilometers, and finally determined that the problem might lie in or near this vast maple forest.  Zhang Tie walked leisurely in the maple forest. Even if he stepped on the leaves, there was no sound. The dew that had not yet dissipated in the forest shrubs and grass could not touch Zhang Tie when he passed by.  The hem of his clothes seemed to be isolated by a strange force. Walking in the woods like this, he was like a shadow without substance.  " After walking slowly in the maple forest for a few minutes, Zhang Tie made a discovery when he was less than 300 meters away from the place where Butler Li and the others were trying to make money and kill themselves.  On the trunk of a tall sugar maple, Zhang Tie saw a 20-centimeter-long metal tube as thick as a little finger that was still inserted into the trunk. The middle of the metal tube had been frozen by the solidified syrup.  .  Zhang Tie pulled out the small broken metal pipe from the tree trunk. The metal pipe was black and had a sharp end. Zhang Tie looked at it carefully and recognized it at once. It was a multi-purpose weapon carried by Taixia field scouts.  Tools, this kind of thing, can silently release the blowing needle used by field scouts. The blowing needle used by Taixia field scouts can silently eliminate an undefended target or wild prey within 50 meters. This kind of  It can also be used to quickly bleed people when stabbed. The wound is difficult to heal. Of course, when encountering this sugar maple forest, this metal pipe can also be inserted directly into the tree trunk, allowing the user to  Convenient to collect the syrup sap from sugar maples.  For a field scout, this thing would never be dropped casually. Judging from the situation at the scene, this pipe has been inserted into the tree for several days.  Zhang Tie looked at the ground of the tree trunk. On the ground, with the keen perception of a knight's heart, he could still find some strange traces. Zhang Tie followed the traces for less than ten meters and saw a small patch of grass on the ground.  The torn soldier field camouflage with blood stains Zhang Tie picked up the small piece of torn camouflage, raised his head, looked at the sky, and pinched a strange seal on his hand. A few hundred meters away  A woodpecker and four tits flew over, and the five birds flew around Zhang Tie twice. The woodpecker and three tits flew away again, but the other tit stayed on the small piece of land Zhang Tie was holding.  On the palm of his hand that shredded the camouflage, he jumped twice, nodded, and then flew up all of a sudden, flying towards the other direction of Maple Forest Zhang Tie was following behind the tit (To be continued.)
