Chapter 16: Shenmu Village
A group of five people continued to move forward.
A few days of travel, and there is nothing to do. After the attack that night, Xia Da also suspended his cultivation at night. It's just that on a daily journey, a person practices the "Wind Walk" a little further behind, or at a great distance in front. After a few days, the first layer of "striding like a horse" is very skilled.
The first layer is just to get up, take the lead, run faster, often in the opponent has not come back to his senses, but you are already a few feet away, how to chase.
The first three layers of "Wind Walk" seem to be good at running, and the last few layers are a combination of some battle steps. It's a pity that there are only four and five floors in existence, and the rest is missing. But for Shada, there is a means of escape than a fight.
Soon, on the sixth day, everyone came to the entrance of Shenmu Village, and looking at the corpses everywhere, everyone was uneasy. I didn't expect the entire village of Shenmu Village to be slaughtered.
Everyone stood at the entrance of the village for more than half an hour, and no one was willing to speak. Even Chen Xian'er put away her usual hip-hop at the moment, her face was languishing with her back to the entrance of the village, squatting on the ground alone, holding a branch and scribbling on the ground.
Xia Da stood at the forefront, thinking about the situation after arriving in Shenmu Village and seeing the eldest lady of the Tang family in the past few days, but he never expected that it would be the scene in front of him.
Xia Da couldn't help but rush into the pile of corpses, as if he wanted to find Miss Tang. But after a long time, most of the corpses were only white bones, and the clothes on their bodies were so rotten that they could not be identified at all.
Everyone looked at Xia Da, who was standing in the corpse, and saw that his eyes were red, and his tyrannical aura was scattered. Everyone thought that Xia Da was unfair to everyone in Shenmu Village, and they all showed sympathy.
In the window of a village house in the distance, a pair of black eyes are watching every move at the entrance of the village.
A few hours later, the corpse at the entrance of the village turned into a pile of dust, and everyone dug a big pit and buried the ashes in the ground, which was considered to be a burial for the people of Shenmu Village.
The ashes were buried, and everyone consulted, and they did not enter the Shenmu Village again. The crowd walked straight towards the mountain, where it was said that there was fairy grass.
A man in the village turned to the back of the house and released a flying letter beast into the sky......
An hour later, the flying letter beast landed in the courtyard of Peng Hu, the second master, in Poison Dragon Mountain. Peng Hu took the letter tied to the letter beast and unfolded: Shenmu Village was mysteriously slaughtered, and the Chen family in Donghua City appeared in Shenmu Village today.
After reading the letter, Peng Hu casually wiped out the letter, walked to the gate of the courtyard and said to the helpers at the door:
"Go and call the big boss and the three masters to discuss the meeting!"
Soon after, there were only three people in the council hall: Poisonous Wolf, Peng Hu, and Black Bear.
"So, the eldest lady of the Tang family may have already ordered the Fallen God Kimura?" the poisonous wolf said in confusion after listening to Peng Hu's words.
"I'm not sure, otherwise why would the Chen family send someone to Shenmu Village. Peng Hu disagreed with the poisonous wolf's speculation and continued:
"You must know that the people in the entire Donghua City know that the Tang family is friendly with the Chen family, and it was even rumored that the Tang family intends to marry Miss Tang to Chen Jiahao, the eldest son of the Chen family..."
"Big brother, second brother, don't be so complicated, okay, you just tell the little brother, what should we do next?" Heihu said eagerly, he didn't have so many thoughts, it was the eldest brother and the second brother who pointed to where to fight.
"Third brother, do you have any news about the people you sent to Donghua City?" Peng Hu turned his head and asked Hei Xiong.
"There is no major movement in Donghua City, but according to the news from the secret whistle, the Nie family and the Gu family have recently come to each other. ”
"It looks like they're all from Kyoto. The black bear replied.
"It's nothing, both of them are big families in Donghua City, and there is nothing about a few relatives in Kyoto or a few big families in Kyoto. The poisonous wolf disagreed.
"Well, Kyoto Prince, two of them came at the same time. This Nie family and the Gu family of the City Lord's Mansion have always been estranged, everyone knows about it, how can it be so coincidental?"
"Third brother, you let people continue to star. Peng Hu continued:
"Now the situation is unclear, and I can't be sure what happened to the City Lord's Mansion and this Nie family, I see, continue to watch closely. ”
"Third brother, you let the secret sentry of Donghua City keep a close eye on the movements of the city guards. Peng Hu explained to the black bear.
After a few more discussions, Peng Hu returned to the courtyard, walked into the study, and wrote: "Go back to Kyoto quickly, check Zhang, Duan Ergongzi is coming." ”
After writing, tie the letter beast and throw the letter beast into the air.
Outside Shenmu Village, Xia Da and a few people walked in the mountains, perhaps because of the tragic situation in Shenmu Village before, so that several people had no intention of speaking. Chen Xian'er also silently followed behind Xia Da and Chen Jiahao.
"Brother Xia, have you ever heard of the Tang family's annihilation tragedy a few months ago?" Chen Jiahao suddenly asked Xia Da, who was walking silently beside him.
When Xia Da heard this, he glanced at Chen Jiahao, but he didn't mean to answer.
"The Tang family and everyone in this Shenmu Village were slaughtered silently, and the murderer can be described as extremely vicious!" Chen Jiahao said as he peeked at Xia Da, as he seemed to deliberately say that he would listen to Xia Da.
When Xia Da heard this, he didn't know what he meant. Chen Jiahao, the eldest son of the Chen family, has not only heard of it in the years when he was a guard in the Tang family, but also seen it from afar. It's just a small person, and no one has ever paid attention to it.
Although the Tang family is friendly with the Chen family, I have even heard that the head of the Tang family originally intended to marry the eldest lady to the Chen family in front of him. But the family is friendly, that was before, and no one knows what role the Chen family is in in the matter of the Tang family's extermination.
So Xia Da did not confide in any of his relationship with the Tang family. This is also his habit of being cautious and not trusting anyone easily.
Chen Jiahao's temptation, Xia Da was thinking about how to answer. He didn't want people to know that he was once the guard of the Tang family, and that he had escaped death.
"Yes, the Tang family was exterminated half a year ago, and I only found out when I returned to Donghua City not long ago. Tang Hua made an excuse and replied.
"In the past half a year, I have not been in Donghua City, and when I returned to the City Lord's Mansion a few days ago, I heard that it was indeed a tragedy. ”
"Brother Na Xia is on an errand in the City Lord's Mansion, have you heard of the whereabouts of the eldest lady of the Tang family?" Chen Jiahao asked Xia Da step by step.
"This, is the eldest lady of the Tang family still alive?" Xia Da said stunned.
"I also heard it, it doesn't matter, since Brother Xia doesn't know, then stop here. Chen Jiahao didn't get any useful information from Xia Da, so he didn't plan to ask any more. After all, this Xia Da in front of him is a person from the city lord's mansion.
Chen Xian'er behind him heard that Xia Da was on an errand in the City Lord's Mansion and came up. Pulling on the sleeve of Shada's shirt, he asked:
"Have you seen the eldest lady of the Gu family in the City Lord's Mansion?"
"Is it really a long country and a city?"
Shada:
“......”
