Chapter 196: There is a demon in the woods
The two torches on the edge of the waterhole illuminated less than three feet of the land. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
More than a dozen men were still kneeling on the ground, but they could not speak, their knees were already painful and numb, but they could not move.
After another hour, the dozen or so men slowly began to move, rubbing their knees, and slowly stood up.
Yan Juncao asked, "What's the matter?" Haven't you ever seen a woman? ”
A man said softly: "We originally wanted to come here to wash the dishes, but those soldiers held us down and didn't allow us to go out." ”
Another man also said: "They have sharp eyes, and they see a girl bathing in this pool, and they ......."
Yan Jun Cao said: "I think you are also itchy, right? Otherwise, why is Qin Guo fine, you people still knocked him unconscious, have you treated your brothers like this? ”
Nangong Shuo asked: "Which of you knocked Qin Guo unconscious, take the initiative to stand up, Lao Tzu is here, what is the matter at me!" ”
The men looked at each other and didn't say anything more.
Yan Juncao said again: "It's all a family, but they make jokes to show some girls, you...... Alas......"
"Back to Yan Juncao, we know it's wrong, Brother Nangong, Qin Guo was not beaten by one of us, but by those guards, when they saw that Qin Guo wanted to run back, they caught up with him and knocked him unconscious." The guy who spoke before paused and said, "We were just curious, but we really didn't see anything, they just wiped their faces here, and they looked like they were going to bathe......"
At this moment, the man next to him touched the man's elbow and motioned him not to continue, but the man also had a temper, "What are you afraid of, anyway, we really didn't see anything, although they looked like they were going to bathe, but then they didn't, we didn't see anything......"
"I said, what do you all do? Is it any wonder that for so long, it turned out that he was hiding here waiting for other girls to undress? Yan Juncao said: "You think people are stupid, of course they have already discovered you, do you deliberately strip and trick you?" ”
Li Tianqi secretly felt funny, this group of people must have been discovered when they were peeping, but it seems that these girls did not take action immediately, but what to wait for.
"Yes."
"Jun Cao is right."
"We won't dare next time."
Those guys are submissive.
Nangong Shuo took a few sips, "Where did those birdmen go?" ”
The guys shook their heads, as if they didn't know.
Yan Juncao looked at the direction in which the women disappeared, and said thoughtfully: "Look at the skills of these white-clothed women, they are like the newly rising white-clothed divine sect in the rivers and lakes. Although they are also soldiers who follow me, these things violate military rules...... I think those people are also to blame, go back. ”
White-clothed religion, white-clothed religion again? Li Tianqi suddenly asked: "You just said that these girls are here to wipe their faces, so who caught you one by one in the woods?" ”
"I don't know."
"I didn't see it at all, and I felt numb."
The guys glanced at each other and shook their heads at Li Tianqi.
Yan Juncao said: "Presumably they are not the only ones here. ”
Li Tianqi nodded, and asked again: "That group of people restrained you, did you ask who was the one who took the lead in peeping?" ”
The men said in unison, "No." ”
Yan Juncao glanced at Li Tianqi, "What's the use of you asking this?" ”
"Just to judge if the people who restrained them were the same group as those women in white." Li Tianqi said: "Now it seems that the other person already knew that they were hiding here, so there was no need to ask, and the three sergeants were directly arrested." Naturally, she is an accomplice of the woman in white. ”
Yan Juncao sighed secretly, and he immediately ordered: "You guys hurry up and clean these dishes, chopsticks and pans, and return to the camp after the practice, don't delay any longer." ”
"Yes." All the men bowed their hands in unison.
Yan Juncao said to Nangong Shuo and the others: "Let's go." Let's go back to camp. ”
The next morning, everyone cleaned up and resumed their work after breakfast.
In the morning, the sun is shining, the birds are singing, the trees in the forest are thinning, and the roads are widening. Yan Juncao led more than a dozen soldiers to ride horses in front, some heavy grain and grass followed the end of the team, and Li Tianqi and the other three were behind the heavy grain and grass.
The team marched for half an hour, and Qin Guo, who left the team and ran behind the big tree, suddenly shouted nervously.
Nangong Shuo heard Qin Guo shouting ten zhang away, and without saying a word, he grabbed the spear and ran over, and Li Tianqi naturally followed.
Yan Juncao heard a shout behind him at the front of the team, and looked back to see Nangong Shuo and Li Tianqi rushing towards the woods, he let his entourage continue to lead the team forward, while he rode his horse and ran towards the forest.
Nangong Shuo rushed into the forest first, and when he saw the scene in front of him, he was also dumbfounded.
Li Tianqi also ran in and gasped.
I saw a corpse lying on the ground, with a bowl-sized blood stain on its abdomen, and only the scabbard of the saber on its body, and looking at the trunk of a tree a foot in front of this person, there was a saber stuck in the trunk, and the saber sank into the trunk of the tree a foot deep. This person is dressed as a Tang sergeant, and his eyes have been ripped out, which is not terrifying, what is terrifying is that this person has become a withered corpse, just like a dry corpse.
Yan Juncao had also rushed over at this time, and he only glanced at the saber and scabbard on the ground, and recognized it as one of his subordinates who had been captured by the women's accomplices last night.
Qin Guo, who saw this scene, was so frightened that he almost didn't pee his pants, and he forgot to tie the belt of his trousers that he had unfastened.
Yan Juncao turned over and dismounted, and said angrily: "What kind of cult are these, they actually treat my soldiers with such vicious methods!" ”
Nangong Shuo also looked extremely shocked, but he cared more about Qin Guo, seeing that Qin Guo was so frightened that he even forgot to tie his belt, he quickly comforted him, and the two walked out of the woods together.
Li Tianqi looked at the empty eye sockets of the dry corpse and said, "Yan Juncao, in my opinion, it shouldn't be those women's doings." ”
"Oh?" Yan Juncao seemed to have a good impression of Li Tianqi, although he didn't remember what the person's name was, "Then tell me, how is it not those women?" ”
Li Tianqi said: "The eyeballs of this corpse have been gouged out, I guess it was done by the woman in white or her accomplices." ”
Yan Juncao said: "Yes, doesn't that mean that they want to harm these soldiers and deliberately torture them? ”
"No, Jun Cao, please forgive me for being abrupt." Li Tianqi shook his head and said, "Jun Cao, think about it, the meaning of what the woman in white said before she left last night, although it was not explicitly stated, it must not have harmed their lives, and I think they should have blinded them and finally let them go." ”
Yan Juncao said: "You were right in the first half, you really blinded them, but then you made them look like this." You see, I don't know what sucked his flesh and turned it into this way, or if it fed him some poison. He looked around, "Maybe you can find the other two." ”
Li Tianqi said: "If this is the case, why bother? And we're waiting for us to save a dozen or so men from them. ”
Yan Juncao said: "They did it on purpose. It is necessary to torture these three soldiers, and to let go of a cadre and so on. Different. ”
Li Tianqi said: "You have a point, but there is another point, that is, why did they take them to such a far place to deal with them? This doesn't make sense, and it's close to the main road, and the trees are sparse. It's easy to spot. ”
Yan Juncao was stunned, "This ...... Maybe they do it on purpose? ”
Li Tianqi shook his head and said: "They have deliberately revealed their whereabouts in front of us last night, and this time they show their whereabouts again, and they are soldiers who are on the record, aren't they afraid that the entire Tang Dynasty will hunt them down?" Even the White-clothed Sect wouldn't dare to be so rampant. ”
Yan Juncao nodded and said, "Well, what you said is not unreasonable. ”
Li Tianqi said: "What I still think is strange is the cause of this person's death, the big bowl of blood on the abdomen, it seems that there must be a wound under that clothes." ”
Yan Jun Cao Fang was about to reach out and flip, but Li Tianqi suddenly shouted: "Wait! ”
When Yan Juncao heard this, he immediately stopped his outstretched hand.
Li Tianqi walked to the saber stuck in the trunk of the tree, and he saw some dark green viscous liquid on the body of the knife, and a ray of sunlight was falling on it, and the slime was slightly bright.
Li Tianqi was worried about poison, he picked up a branch, walked to the corpse, lifted the bloody clothes, and a palm-sized wound was exposed.
Yan Juncao looked at the dark green liquid on the saber, and then at the wound exposed by Li Tianqi after opening the clothes, and secretly admired Li Tianqi's meticulous observation.
He asked, "What's at this time?" ”
Li Tianqi shook his head and said, "I don't know, but there is a bad omen." He thought for a moment and asked, "Jun Cao, how long will it take for us to get out of this forest?" ”
Yan Juncao said: "In order to catch up with the schedule, I chose the path marked by the military map, which has been shortened by one hundred and fifty miles, but according to the time, it will take three days to get out of here. ”
He thought for a moment and asked softly, "What exactly did you think of?" ”
Li Tianqi said: "I'm afraid there are demons in this jungle. ”
"What? Goblin? Although Yan Juncao has experienced a hundred battles, he has never encountered a monster, and when he heard Li Tianqi talk about it at this time, he didn't feel a shock in his heart at the moment.
Li Tianqi had personally experienced a disgusting sticky thing that was almost the same as this, and he couldn't think of anything other than the monster that would flow.
And all kinds of signs indicate that there is a demon in this forest, and this demon also sucks human flesh and blood, not only cruel methods, but also extremely secretive, because the place where the incident occurred did not leave too many traces.
