Chapter 324 Is There Something Else Going On?
Li Changxiao looked at the files and suddenly had an idea. This Xia Shexie's method was so clever that he felt familiar with it. He had seen many landowners in many mortal countries divert conflicts in a similar way. This made him think more. Could there be a human behind the scenes who was giving him advice and pushing him secretly?
As soon as this idea came out, Li Changxiao immediately found the files handled by the previous lords of the Ninth City and checked them one by one.
There are many cases in the Ninth City, and the chain of evidence is actually very complete, which made Li Changxiao a little unexpected.
Even some larger cases have both human and alien confessions, and the witnesses and material evidence are complete and do not seem to be forged. Even the final disposal is reasonable and legal. Even if Li Changxiao looks at it, he can't find anything wrong for a while.
Although the two tribes of Shexie planned to occupy the Ninth City and expel the human race after the spiritual energy was exhausted, and they exhausted the human cultivators in the Ninth City by exchanging lives for lives, this is already a very certain fact.
After knowing the result, looking back, the cases recorded in the files did show some results.
After the spiritual energy was exhausted, there were an average of 20 major cases involving human cultivators per year.
But when Li Changxiao read the contents of these files carefully, he found that everything from the cause to the process and even the final result was recorded very completely.
Before reading the files, Li Changxiao, like others, thought that the other alien cities were protecting the snake and scorpion tribe of the Ninth City and wanted to use this to test the human race.
After all, there is a relationship between the demon cities.
Some major case files need to be checked regularly and supervised. If there was no intention of protecting, the Ninth City should not have evolved to this point, and other cities should have noticed it long ago.
But now, I am afraid that this may not be the case.
As far as Li Changxiao's current impression of these files is concerned.
These files are complete in structure, highly credible, and very convincing. Even if there is any forgery or fraud, it is probably very low, because the Lord of the Ninth City is not always a foreigner. There have been many generations in which the human race has served as the Lord.
Although the two tribes of snakes and scorpions have long harbored evil intentions, their control over the Ninth City is not that high. It is impossible for them to cover the sky with one hand and fabricate facts out of thin air. Even if they really do that, there will definitely be many flaws. After reading a few more files, you can find that they can't fool Li Changxiao.
Li Changxiao frowned slightly, which means there is only one possibility:
All these cases in the Ninth City over the years are true. The two tribes of snakes and scorpions have been eliminating human cultivators in a very "reasonable and legal" way.
In this way.
I am afraid that in this green area, the relationship between the human race and the alien races has not become as rigid as imagined. Perhaps some alien races do have the intention of occupying the magpie's nest, but it has not reached the point that most people in the human race think.
After guessing this, Li Changxiao felt that there was an extra layer of uncertainty in this matter.
He continued to delve deeper and read the files one by one.
However, there were limited files in Xia Shexie's room, and Li Changxiao had finished reading them in less than two hours. He had no choice but to find a warehouse where the files were stored.
It was night time, and the City Lord's Mansion was very dark. There were bloodstains all over the ground, and it was emitting poisonous gas. Even monks were reluctant to set foot in it easily.
After some time, these poisonous gases will further evolve.
Therefore, at this moment, Li Changxiao should be the only one walking in the entire City Lord's Mansion. He walked through the winding corridors, looked at the surrounding scenery, and sighed in his heart that it was a pity.
This City Lord's Mansion has beautiful scenery, and you can see that the flowers, plants and trees have been carefully repaired. From now on, it will be completely abandoned for a long time.
Soon he arrived at his destination, slowly opened the door, and rows of bookshelves appeared in front of him. Files were scattered all over the floor, but it could be vaguely seen that they were neatly collected and placed according to the year, month and day.
Li Changxiao walked to the deepest part and started reading from the oldest file. Unfortunately, the files collected by the Ninth City were only preserved for major cases within the last four hundred years.
The files before that had been burned to ashes, and this was because the average life expectancy of the snake and scorpion tribes was higher than that of humans, so they kept files for nearly four hundred years.
But this was enough. Li Changxiao took a breath of fresh air and blew it gently towards the library. He saw that breath lingering in front of him for a long time, like a few pairs of soft invisible hands, holding up four or five copied files and flipping through them at a constant speed. Li Changxiao read several books at the same time, and felt it was just right.
Time passed.
At this speed, in just a few days, Li Changxiao had already read through all the collected files, and actually found some clues.
First of all, one thing is certain, that is, the things in the files are real. The Ninth City has always handled it impartially. In fact, from this point of view, the Ninth City has not made any big mistakes, and it can even be said to be impeccable.
It is also based on this point that Li Changxiao paid attention to the "cause" of the case. This is a link that all cases cannot avoid. The two snake and scorpion tribes want to provoke conflicts among the human race and subtly eliminate the human cultivators, so they must be involved in this link.
But he found that most of the causes were caused by the human race.
And...
It was indeed those cultivators who lost their reason first.
Li Changxiao's eyes flickered slightly. These files looked normal, which meant that other alien cities might not have been too involved in the affairs of the Ninth City.
It also reflected another problem.
The "Snake" and "Scorpion" tribes were the masterminds who planned this matter, but they could do it so perfectly, and they definitely needed the help of some "humans".
Only when the human race got involved could each case be so perfect.
So far, Li Changxiao had the outline of the matter in his mind.
Some human forces had colluded with the Snake and Scorpion tribes of the Ninth City very early, wanting to completely occupy the Ninth City as their own territory.
The intelligence held by the other eight cities in the Green Domain must be extremely limited.
In recent years, the affairs of the Ninth City have gradually been noticed by human cultivators, but they did not act rashly, but just watched.
The Ninth City is a special node. It is located at the border of the Green Domain and the Red Domain, and at the same time... it also means the contact between the human race and the alien race.
The behavior of the Ninth City will directly affect the human race's view of the Green Domain aliens. Therefore... the human race uses the situation of the Ninth City to look at the attitude of the aliens.
If the Snake and Scorpion Tribes stopped, I am afraid that the human race would not be so fierce in the end to expel the aliens.
However, the Snake and Scorpion Tribes not only did not stop, but became more and more intense until the generation of Xia Snake and Scorpion...
The human race was disappointed with the Ninth City, and even the Eighth, Seventh, Sixth... Cities, and launched a fierce attack to expel them.
Li Changxiao sorted out the matter in his mind.
And he speculated that the force that helped the Snake and Scorpion Tribes was probably the long-standing "Extreme Evil Sect".
This force exists like a cancer.
