Lou Yanxin was beside her, although her posture was a big Malaysian golden knife, her face was not bold, but rather complicated.

Qiushu read it many times in a row, put those few pieces of bamboo paper on the oil lamp and lit it, and waited until it was completely burned to ashes before he said: "So, this Shengshu is the family of Shengjia Village, Xiaozheng County, Shengyan County, Crescent Moon Province?"

"There is a great possibility, but it is a pity that Shengjia Village was robbed by bandits five years ago, and most of the 794 people in the entire village were slaughtered. This genealogy of the Sheng clan was compiled from the population book of Xiaozheng County over the years. Lou Yanxin said.

"But there is no name on it. Qiu Shu said coldly.

"It's true that there is no, just because the records of the children born in Shengjia Village in the past five years are only kept in Shengjia Village, and they suffered the disaster of slaughtering the village before they could report to the county, and the records were burned at that time. ”

"Where did the bandits come from, and how are they now?"

"From Qiuyin Mountain, so far, I haven't found it. Lou Yanxin's voice was a little tight.

"Qiuyin Mountain? is the high mountain north of the Qiuhe River? Qiu Shu said angrily, she grabbed a porcelain inkstone on the small table, and gently pinched it, and the porcelain inkstone turned into a pile of broken powder.

Lou Yanxin's face was also full of anger, these pages were sent back by the flame guard she sent out today, originally to find out the origin of Sheng Ash, but she didn't expect to find out such an old case, and it was also a headless public case, after so many years, even if you want to investigate, you can't find out.

"Then that's it?" Qiu Shu's face was gloomy and terrifying.

"Naturally, it can't just be just like that, in the past few years, Xiaozheng County has organized several anti-bandit operations, but every time they arrive in Qiuyin Mountain, no one can come back, and there are even rumors that in Qiuyin Mountain, there is a monster that devours people alive. Later, no one asked. ”

"What about Shengyan County, who was the county guard back then, and who was the head town?"

Lou Yanxin wanted to speak and stopped.

"Why, didn't you find it?" Qiu Shu's voice became colder and colder.

Lou Yanxin shook her head and said, "Your Highness, please forgive your subordinates for speaking out. ”

Say. ”

"Your Highness, when this happened, His Highness was still holding hostage in the Great Wu Heavenly Dynasty, what happened during this period, and what details there were, it has been five years, and it must be difficult to find out. Even if His Highness wants to investigate, his subordinates suggest that it is best to wait for His Highness to return to Qiujing City before waiting for the opportunity to start this matter. As far as his subordinates know, Su Chang, the county guard of Shengyan County five years ago, was the person of the second princess, and Qiu Leji, the head of the town, was neutral on the surface, but in recent years, it has appeared, and there is an image of throwing himself into the fourth princess. Four years ago, the county guard of Shengyan County was replaced by a little-known person named Qian Suwen, and the head town was also replaced by an old regimental general of the Qianfu Legion half a year later, who had already passed the age of the sixtieth year, named Wang Hanjing. This involves a complex matter, and it cannot be broken for a while, so I hope Your Highness will think twice. ”

Lou Yanxin said, stood up, knelt on one knee, clenched her hands into fists, and looked solemn.

"Smack!"

Qiu Shu palmed down, and the solid wood desk shattered into several pieces.

Qiu Shu said sharply: "So what? Those nearly 800 lives, but they are all the people of my Qiushui Country, can't they be checked if they can't be found? Those people, aren't they afraid that these 800 lives will be turned into ghosts and ask for their lives?"

Lou Yanxin didn't say anything, but her fists tightened.

"Crescent Moon Province, Shengyan County, how far is it from here?"

"Your Highness!" Lou Yanxin knelt on the ground with her head on the ground.

"Huh, you're going to stop me too?" Qiu Shu stood up suddenly, flicked his sleeves, but his voice suddenly became very calm.

"The subordinates don't dare. Your Highness, please don't forget that Your Majesty hopes that Your Highness will rush back to Qiujing City as soon as possible, and if you miss the time, your subordinates will be afraid that Your Majesty will punish you! I hope Your Highness will think twice, and I hope Your Highness will think twice!" Lou Yanxin kowtowed.

Qiu Shu was silent, and his face was gloomy and was about to drip water.

After a while, Qiu Shu said: "Get up, I know your heart, but don't worry, I won't stay there for long." ”

Lou Yanxin was just about to get up, but when she heard this, she kept kowtowing and froze, she really didn't expect that Qiushu would still be so insistent.

After a few breaths, Lou Yanxin finally said: "Your Highness, this place belongs to the Half Moon Province of Wushan County, if you want to go to Shengyan County of the Crescent Moon Province from here, the fastest trip is to turn from the front of Liusheng County to the north, we will go to Liusheng County at this time, it will take about eight days, if we do not turn to Shengyan County of the Crocian Province, it will only take three months to reach Qiujing City, but if we turn to Shengyan County, we will have to delay for an extra month." At that time, if the road is closed by heavy snow, I am afraid that it will be delayed even longer. ”

"Liusheng County, but the Liusheng County that claims to have been born with a Heavenly Saint?"

"Exactly. ”

"Okay, you get up, go and tell Huang Wanli, when you arrive at Liusheng County, after resting, you will turn to Shengyan County in the Crescent Moon Province, and hurry at full speed during the period, don't be lazy. This palace has made a decision, and there is no need to admonish again. ”

"Yes. ”

Lou Yanxin stood up, exited the tent, and not long after, she was back again.

Qiu Shu didn't rest at all, and when he saw Lou Yanxin coming in, he immediately asked, "What? ”

General Huang didn't say anything. ”

"Didn't say anything?"

"Well, not a word. ”

"Then you're coming back like this?" Qiu Shu's words were like a sharp knife, and those who listened to it seemed to have the pain of cutting their skin.

When Lou Yanxin heard this, she knelt down on one knee and said, "Your Highness, my subordinates wanted to continue to ask questions at that time, asking him to express his attitude no matter what, but my subordinates later thought that if they were persecuted at this time, no matter what Huang Wanli's attitude was, it would be unfavorable to His Highness in the future, so his subordinates didn't ask any more questions." If His Highness feels that his subordinates are wrong, then ask His Highness to condemn him. ”

Qiu Shu was silent for a long time, her eyes kept looking at the tent, her gaze seemed to be able to penetrate the tent, stared into the distance, and said, "Okay, this palace knows, you can retreat." ”

"Your Highness!"

"Stand down!"

"Yes. ”

Another two days passed, and the team was still advancing on the Southern Silk Ancient Road, and if someone had never been here before, I am afraid that it would not be long before he would be lost here.

After walking here for a long time, it is easy to be confused about the direction, the front and back are often the same scenery, either yellow sand, or sand mountains, or the occasional dead trees poking out on the cliffs, these days have passed, and Sheng Gray has not even seen a bird.

And the worst thing here is that there is often a strong wind without warning, and then mixed with a lot of yellow sand, and when the wind has completely passed, the whole person will be covered with sand, in this case, let alone moving forward, even a little farther away is basically not clear.

Either there is no wind, or the wind will last for a long time, rarely less than an hour.

At dusk today, there happened to be such a gale.

Huang Wanli did not let the team stop immediately this time, but continued to let the team continue to walk in the strong wind for about half an hour before coming to a low-lying place.

There is a small oasis here, low-lying, with a small lake as far as the eye can see, and strangely enough, the water here is not particularly muddy, but it is not that clear.

Even so, Sheng Shen could also see the excitement in the eyes of the soldiers around him.

Huang Wanli's order was given, and the team began to set up camp here, and then did what they had to do, and soon, a small camp was formed.

In front of this small depression is a long road, and on both sides are dirt mountains dozens of feet high.

After dinner, Sheng Shen entered the tent, these days, Liu Qiang doesn't know what method to use, in short, in the whole team, except for Liu Qiang, everyone else really treats him as Zhang Shun, and hardly talks to him.

Last night, it was his team and the other three teams who were on rotation, and tonight, they are not needed.

It's just that when he entered the tent to rest, Sheng Gray's ears suddenly pricked up, and he seemed to hear something from the dirt mountains on both sides.

The sound on the dirt hill in the north is a bit like the sound of horses' hooves, and a bit like the neighing of horses, while the sound on the dirt hill in the south seems to be some very strange noise, and I can't tell what it is, some of them look like some kind of animal, and some of them are like the sound of snakes spitting letters.

He turned his head to look at Liu Qiang, Liu Qiang didn't react at all, he looked around again, the soldiers on duty around him were normal, outside the four temporary gates of the camp, there were soldiers standing in the wind and sand on duty, and in the depths of the wind and sand, Sheng Shen knew that there were also some scouts probing around.

Sheng Shen shook his head, was it just his own delusion?

Because for a moment, the voices seemed to disappear again.

Sheng Shen listened intently for a long time, and never heard that strange sound again, and he stopped paying attention, these days, every night, he did not dream, but the state of his body was not out of deep sleep, he was trying to keep his state to the best.

He didn't know what game the woman riding the big black wolf was going to play with him, but when he did, he rarely lost.

Sheng Shen doesn't like the feeling of losing, no matter what he does, if the little horn can speak, he must be the most sympathetic.

Sheng Gray always felt that no matter what the content of this game was, it must be about to be revealed.

When he lay down and pretended to sleep, Sheng Gray felt a little regret in his heart, he hadn't seen the little girl of Lord Xuanyu for four consecutive days, and he didn't know what happened to her.
