At this time, the people gradually began to realize that they were in a barren mountain and wilderness with no village in front of the village and no shops in the back, and their carts were scattered and their horses were gone......

And it happened to be almost dark......

The crowd spread the map on the ground and studied it for more than half an hour, and several road idiots finally came to a unanimous conclusion, that is, they had gone wrong......

Because Qin Zheng was too nervous, he didn't have time to pull out his hand to look at the map, at that time, they had already made a mistake, if it was calculated on foot, they had already taken the wrong distance for nearly a day. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Blame me. ”

Qin Zheng twitched the corner of his mouth, he was indeed to blame for this, but people, just dare to challenge, and the next time he has the opportunity, he will definitely give it a try.

So the people decided to follow the route on the map and walk back to the right road on two legs, but depending on the sky, the top priority was to find a place to spend the night.

At this time, two people came up to them, dressed in white coarse linen clothes, with white silk on their heads, the man's eyes were red and swollen, and the woman was crying, as if she had just returned from mourning.

The two glanced up at Qin Zheng and his party, and then walked straight forward.

Qin Zheng wanted to go up and ask if there were any villages nearby, not far from here, but seeing that they were not in a good mood, he felt that it was not good to talk rashly.

At this time, three more people came to meet them, also dressed in mourning costumes, still the man's face was gloomy, the woman was crying, and this time there was a little baby who was crying.

Qin Zheng and the others were stunned, because after they saw these three, there were more people in the same costume who walked in their direction, old and young, men and women, and none of them looked like a family, could it be that there were so many people at the same time, all dead?

So a few people looked at this army of coarse linen clothes and walked in front of them, and they were quite shocked.

At this time, a young man walked over alone, also dressed in the same way, but his mood was still a little more stable, so out of curiosity, Qin Zheng and the others stepped forward and asked, "Hello, where are you...... Is something big going on?"

With so many people dead, Qin Zheng's first thought was a natural disaster such as a mudslide or a mountain burst, so they asked if something big had happened.

The young man looked up at Qin Zheng and them a few times, his eyes were a little wary, and he was a little puzzled, and then said, "You are strangers, it has not been peaceful here recently, several villages have been slaughtered, this mountain area, no place is safe, you should leave as soon as possible." ”

After speaking, the young man was in no mood to deal with Qin Zheng and them anymore, and he also followed the tail of the funeral procession and went up the mountain.

How many villages?

Now Qin Zheng knows the reason why so many people mourn, because like this village living in the same mountainous area, there is a custom of intermarriage, the women of village A like to marry to village B, and the men of village B like to marry girls from village C.

Ding, the grandmaster-level quest - the mystery of the slaughter of the village is obtained, investigate the reasons why several villages were slaughtered, and the task rewards the ghost eye, which can be taken by multiple people.

Qin Zheng raised his eyebrows and said, "I have a task." ”

Now Lin Xiyu and the others are very accustomed to Qin Zheng's strange behavior of suddenly appearing on a task, and even began to have an inexplicable expectation and excitement about the task and the reward itself, and finally got the reward, which is even more peaceful.

Although Lin Xiyu has always adhered to atheism and has not joined the believer system, her behavior and attitude are actually half a believer.

"What a mission!"

"What a reward!"

"What difficulty!"

The people who are used to the task system immediately asked, and they already belong to the group that understands the mechanism of the task very well.

"Grandmaster level, investigate the reason for the slaughter of the village, the task reward is the ghost eye, you can all do it. Qin Zheng said.

"Ghost eyes?" everyone's eyes lit up slightly, and it seemed to be a very remarkable thing to hear the name.

"Oh, a one-off thing, for snooping. Qin Zheng explained.

"What's the way to listen?"

Qin Zheng suddenly felt that this was a difficult question to explain, so he said, "You just say whether to do it or not." ”

Lin Xiyu replied first, "This kind of thing is intolerable, and everyone is responsible for eliminating the scourge." ”

Xiao Baozi and Coco immediately waved their fists and said, "Yes, everyone is responsible!"

As for the opinions of Pan Pan and Xiaoqiang, they were actively ignored......

So Qin Zheng and the others followed the direction of the mourners just now, and walked over, fortunately, they met a few mourners along the way, so that they did not lose their way and successfully found the village that was slaughtered.

The whole village was wrapped in white curtains, and small bonfires were piled up on the ground, and the coins had been burned to ashes, and some of the ashes were fluffy and entangled together, flying in the firelight.

The black smoke that burned out kept rising and rising, reflecting the already somewhat dark sky even more gray.

There were still some people, scattered and scattered, coming out of the village in groups of three or five, crying and crying, and grieving.

Qin Zheng and the others walked around the village, and found that there were many people in this village, and it should have been a big village earlier, with at least dozens of people living there, didn't there be a single living mouth?

A few people walked around several empty houses, but they found nothing except blood stains on the ground.

As the sky is getting darker and darker, the other villagers who mourn are also gone, and there are dozens of empty houses here, accompanied by white curtains and the rustling of leaves, this place looks quite terrifying, like a **reads;.

Lin Xiyu swallowed his saliva, unconsciously grabbed one of Qin Zheng's arms, and said with some difficulty, "Compared with here, no man's town is simply not worthy of the word 'no one'. ”

The night wind was stronger again, and it blew in their ears like a ghost crying wolf.

At this time, they didn't have time to find other villages, so they decided to spend the night here, but under the strong request of Lin Xiyu and Xiao Baozi, they did not live in this village, but found a vacant land behind the village and camped to live.

Then they found a small earthen bag on the edge of the clearing, with wooden planks inserted into it, which was supposed to be the tomb of the people of the village.

After casually scanning their eyes, they found that the number of small dirt bags here may have reached two hundred!

More than 200 people died in this village!

Suddenly, they felt that the yin qi was a little heavier, but the task still had to be continued, but just looking at these empty houses, it was difficult to find clues, so Qin Zheng decided to divide the troops into two ways.

From Lin Xiyu, Keke, and Panpan, the three girls' families went to the houses in the empty village to look for clues one by one.

And Qin Zheng, Xiao Baozi and Xiao Qiang dug up the dirt bag and looked for clues on the corpses of these villagers.

Although Lin Xiyu said that it was indeed an extraordinary horror to go to those empty houses full of curtains at this point in time to investigate, but in the end, she still went hard, and Qin Zheng promised her that when they came back, she would be her favorite Sai Tianxian.

And Xiao Baozi is standing in front of Xiao Tubao, with his hands folded, and he keeps worshipping there, still muttering in his mouth, "Don't blame us, we are here to investigate the murderer, we will definitely bury you back, don't cheat the corpse, and don't stare at me, there is no blame, there is no blame." ”

Qin Zheng was not afraid of ghosts, but since he passed through the uninhabited town, he was even more afraid, thinking of those ghosts, so he thought that not long after these people died, the ghosts should still be hovering near the corpses, so he opened the eyes of wisdom and took a look, and then, he was shocked.

He was shocked not because he saw anything, but because he didn't see anything.

This instantly made him think of a possibility...... Cult ...... It turned out to be evil cultivators again;!

What kind of evil cultivation is it, it needs to kill so many people, and I heard the young man before say that he has already slaughtered several villages, so how many lives are there? Isn't it a person, but a gang?

However, these are all speculations for the time being, and it is more reliable to see tangible evidence and clues.

So after the little bun finished babbling, Qin Zheng directly picked up the shovel that was thrown aside at random, and dug it down at one of the small dirt bags.

Since there are no ghosts here, then he has no burden in his heart, Xiao Baozi saw Qin Zheng's unhesitation, and couldn't help but worship his face, worthy of his brother Zheng, this kind of courage is simply amazing!

The corpse that Qin Zheng dug up was a woman, but thinking of taking off the other party's clothes to examine the wound, Qin Zheng felt that it was inappropriate, so he took some time to bury her back and dug up the second one.

This time it was a man who looked to be about thirty to forty years old, with wide eyes and clenched fists, and looked like he was in pain when he died.

Looking at it from the front, the blood stains were mainly concentrated in the chest area, so Qin Zheng untied his shirt and saw the huge wound on his chest, which was about ten centimeters long, and it was a vertical one.

Qin Zheng frowned, turned him over and looked at his back, and sure enough, there was also a vertical wound.

It should be a sword-like weapon, but it is a penetrating wound.

So he put the body aside and began to dig up the third.

The third, also a sword, was wounded through the sword.

The fourth, also a sword, directly cut the carotid artery.

The fifth, still a sword, pierces the wound......

Qin Zheng dug up dozens of corpses with a face, but as long as it was a man, he checked it all, and the injuries they received basically came from the same weapon, especially the penetrating wounds, all of which were killed with one blow, the speed of the other party was very fast, and the strength of the hand that could be seen from the way the wound was cut in, as well as the degree of damage, were extremely similar.

No matter how you look at it, it all looks like it came from the same person......
