"Wutong Village is an old village rooted in Wutong Mountain, and the villagers make a living by hunting. Many villagers have left to live in the town under the mountain, and five years ago, there were only a dozen or so families left. Bai Ye flipped through the information that the guards had just sent from the post station, "Because the number of people was too small, and the villagers' resistance to the government, they were allowed to develop." ”

Chen Xiaolazy muttered: "It is impossible for that group of black-armored people dressed as officials to destroy a small village for no reason, unless there is something in the village that makes them scruples. ”

Su Yan opened his mouth and said, "The physical fitness of these three teenagers is also extraordinary. ”

Gao Wei nodded in agreement, "They are hungry and can jump down a hillside more than six meters high in such a bad state, which few adults can do, and they can do it easily." A village that can raise such children is in a sense extraordinary. ”

Bai Ye tilted his head and leaned on Su Yan's shoulder, frowning and said, "If this group of people in black armor is really trying to kill people, the three of them will not be able to escape even if they hide no matter how hidden." ”

"Then ask when they wake up." Su Yan raised his hand expressionlessly and pushed Bai Ye's face away, "Let's go to Wutong Village to have a look first?" ”

"Hmm."

So, the group returned to the post station along the same road, Gao Wei stayed behind, and Chen Xiaolan and the three followed a local young man who was familiar with Wutong Mountain up the mountain.

After nearly an hour, they finally found Wutong Village. This is a relatively gentle location on the mountainside of Wutong Mountain, and the mud and straw houses have collapsed to the ground, and the burnt straw smells of decay after days of rain. The smell of gunpowder had dissipated, and the entire area looked like a trampled mass graveyard.

The young man who led the team was also a little stunned, he didn't expect to see this scene, "How come?!" ”

"It stinks!" Bai Ye pinched his nose and said, not far from his finger, the smell of dead bodies wafted out from under the raised pile of mud and rocks, and it seemed that the corpses of villagers who had not been noticed by Alin's three children were buried inside.

Several pitch-black crows croaked, scattered across several piles of mud and rock, flapping their black wings, unafraid of the four who arrived.

Witnessing the tragic situation in Wutong Village, Chen Xiaolazy felt a chill down his spine. She followed behind Su Yan and walked around the area in fear.

They found nothing, and they went down the mountain road, and their mood was a little depressed.

With a "snap", a white object suddenly fell from the sky tree beside them. Su Yan stretched out his hand, protected Chen Xiaolan behind him, and looked up at the tree.

The summer sun casts dappled shadows on the trees through the lush foliage, and the foliage trembles gently, leaving nothing in the gaps.

The breath of someone who was clearly there just now flashed, and Su Yan was puzzled.

"This is ......" Bai Ye leaned over to pick up the fallen object, revealing a look of surprise, and in his hand was a thin piece of black iron wrapped in strips of white cloth.

Chen Xiaolazy untied the white cloth and saw a line of cursive written in black ink, and she read it word by word: "Luyao Guoqing Ancient Village." ”

There are several smooth lines carved on the thin black iron block, and the meaning is unknown. Su Yan glanced at it, then handed it to Bai Ye and said, "This is probably a piece of black armor." ”

"Interesting!" Bai Ye fiddled with the iron in his hand, bent his Danfeng eyes, and was full of interest.

Some people are also paying attention to the affairs of Wutong Village, and they are secretly reminding them.

Is it friend or foe? When I arrived in Qinggu Village, I naturally knew-

When Chen Xiaolazi and the others returned to the post station, the sun was setting, the sunset was like Qi, and the children in Wutong Village were still asleep.

"Lord Wang, Gao Wei has the courage to ask for the news of what happened in Wutong Village to be passed on to Baidu Daliqing, so that they can intervene in dealing with it" Seeing Bai Ye's figure, Gao Wei hurried to the waist and bowed respectfully, "The matter of giving gifts has been delayed for more than two months, and we must leave tomorrow." ”

"I have entrusted the person in charge of the post station here to take care of the three surviving children in Wutong Village, if the prince is willing, he will pass by here on the return journey, and then take them back to Baidu together."

Gao Wei nodded slightly after speaking, and stood in front of the three of them waiting for a reply.

Bai Ye kept a playful expression from beginning to end, but his eyes flickered, the three children of Wutong Village did not plan to take them on the road, and they didn't know what dangers they would encounter on the road ahead, so it was impossible to risk taking the three children again.

"Okay." Bai Ye gently patted Gao Wei's stiff shoulder, "Let's go back to the house." ”

Gao Wei raised his face a little unresponsive when he heard this, and seeing his blank expression, Chen Xiaolazy smiled, "Really, really, really." ”

The serious deputy envoy must not have known that they were on the way, so they were ready to leave tomorrow, and they were worried that the person in charge, Bai Ye, would delay their main task because of the accident in Wutong Village.

Gao Wei smiled slightly and put his mind at ease, "It seems that I am too worried." ”

As the time came, the three of them woke up. They hurriedly got out of bed, opened the door and saw Chen Xiaolaan and the three of them sitting outside the house chatting, showing joy, and the panic when they first woke up gradually dissipated.

"Yo! Wake up! Waving in greeting, he got up and opened the door and asked the guards waiting outside to inform the kitchen to prepare three dinners.

When he closed the door and turned around, he saw that the three children had timidly gathered around Su Yan and Chen Xiaolan.

"Sister." The fat man Ah Pan smiled innocently, "You look good." ”

Chen Xiaolazi's heart was full of joy in an instant, and she suppressed her smile to maintain her maturity, "Thank you for the compliment." ”

Before setting off from Bai Du, Bai Ye saw that she only had two sets of clothes, a red cheongsam skirt and a green skirt, and sympathetically added a few more sets for her. Today she is wearing a white dress, her black hair hangs softly on her shoulders, her skin is translucent, and her almond eyes are crooked, revealing a sense of innocence.

On the other side, the little flat-headed Ah Lin and the thin man Ah Xiao were looking at Su Yan adoringly, this brother's black hair and black eyes had a calm temperament, which made them feel very powerful when they looked at it.

"Let's get down to business."

Bai Ye sat back in place, coughed twice, and held his cheeks with some taste. He thought to himself, he really underestimated these three little guys, his brain turned quite fast, and he knew how to hug his thighs in time.

"Big brother, you're also amazing!" Ah Pan turned his face to Bai Ye and said seriously.

Chen Xiaolazy smiled and touched Apan's head, his mouth was very sweet.

"Did anything special happen in your village before?" Su Yan said lightly.

The three of them thought for a moment, and then they all shook their heads.

"Is there really nothing strange to you? Which family disappeared, or lost something? Chen Xiaolan added.

After a while, Ah Pan hesitated and opened his mouth before whispering: "No one in the village has lost anything, but Sister Li is gone, and I haven't seen her for a long time." ”

"Ali?"

"It's Joeyley." The thin man Ah Xiao interjected, "If you don't say it, I forgot, Ah Pan will be ......happy when he hits Joey Lilai."

"Nope!" Ah Pan hurriedly covered his mouth, "Don't listen to his nonsense, I don't have it!" ”

The two of them directly pushed me to make a fuss, and the little flat-headed Alin next to him explained to them seriously, "Qiao Yili is a relative of Uncle Qiao in the village, and she came to Wutong Village half a year ago to seek refuge with Uncle Wu. Although she was seven years older than us, she was very small, only a little taller than us. ”
