Chapter 444: The Search Continues
The troops marched slowly, and the soldiers in front cut off the branches with broadswords to clear the way.
Han Xuening, Wei Yunxuan and the others walked in the middle with the people of the Zhao family, following behind a large number of archers.
After walking for half an hour, a large number of soldiers had approached the valley and surrounded the small houses in the valley.
Zhao Yan ordered the troops to stop for the time being and see what was going on.
Wei Yunxuan sent two guards to investigate, these two people originally came to Wei Yunxuan with Wu Tong, both of them were tall and strong.
After the two of them received the order, they approached the rooms of the wooden houses in the valley, there were more than twenty wooden houses in the mountains and forests, and it seemed that many members of the killer organization lived here.
Han Xuening said to Wei Yunxuan: "There should be many members of the killer organization here, as well as those women from underground brothels, who should also live here. ”
Obviously, there are two houses separated in the middle, and it is estimated that on one side is a member of the killer organization, and on the other side is a woman from the green building.
Half an hour later, two guards returned to report that some of the houses were sleeping and some were empty. It looks like these people haven't been out for a long time.
Han Xuening was right to think about it, the underground brothel had been investigated and dealt with, and the underground brothel that was supposed to be open every night was surrounded by so many soldiers, the killer organization and the owner of the underground brothel must have known about it.
So, some of them left.
However, after all, there are a lot of people, and some of them will definitely not have time to evacuate, so they will live here temporarily.
They didn't expect Zhao Jialou's troops to come so quickly.
Zhao Yan ordered the soldiers to fence off all the wooden houses, arrest everyone in the wooden houses, and kill those who resisted.
At the forefront were soldiers with spears, followed by groups of archers.
The soldiers in front of them slammed the door open after approaching the wooden house, and the people inside heard the movement, and they were all frightened when they saw so many people outside.
A few of those who resisted were shot with arrows, and the rest of the house was arrested and guarded together.
After Zhao Yan, who was outside, heard the soldier's report, he said to Han Xuening, Wei Yunxuan and the others: "Miss Xuening, Lord Wang, all the people inside have been arrested, let's go over and interrogate." ”
"Good! Landlord please! ”
Zhao Yan walked in the front, followed by Wei Yunxuan, Han Xuening and others to a house in the valley, where they took care of people.
Han Xuening looked around, and several young men on the ground were killed by random arrows, like a hornet's nest, with fifty or sixty arrows stuck in them, and their deaths were extremely miserable.
In addition, next to a small cabin, thirty or forty people were tied up by a group of soldiers, surrounded by a large number of soldiers.
Among these people, more than 20 people turned out to be women, and there were almost a dozen men.
Han Xue Ning thought about it, these women may be women who sell themselves in underground brothels, and these men should be thugs in brothels.
It seems that the people of the Black Killer Organization have already evacuated.
Zhao Yan asked his soldier commander to come forward for interrogation, and finally learned that these people were all from underground brothels.
In addition, the dozen or so houses in the cabin on the other side were indeed organized by the Black Killers, but those people had been evacuated two days ago and had not returned.
Zhao Yan asked those people, from which direction did the people of the killer organization evacuate?
These people couldn't say clearly, anyway, at night, they didn't see anyone.
Because they knew that the underground brothel had been discovered, and a large number of officers and soldiers had confiscated their usual business place, they could only stay here and live here.
After understanding the situation, Zhao Yan said to Han Xuening and the others: "It seems that these black-clothed killers are not simple to organize, and as soon as there is any trouble, they have already escaped. What do we do next? ”
Han Xuening asked the soldiers to arrest a few people and asked them how many secret passages led to the outside.
However, everyone said that there was only one secret passage in the underground brothel, and that they had never walked through the other secret passages again.
Han Xuening said to Zhao Yan: "It seems that there may be only one secret passage leading here. The members of the killer organization must have fled this side by other means. ”
Zhao Yan thought about it, what Han Xuening said made sense.
He then ordered his soldiers to immediately search the surrounding area in a carpet search, looking for a way to the outside.
A large number of soldiers, led by the commander of the soldiers, all went to look for it.
Wei Yunxuan asked Zhao Yan, "Landlord, how do you deal with these people?" ”
Zhao Yan thought for a while and said, "These people are tied here first, and when I have time, I will ask someone to interrogate them again, and those who have committed a big crime will not be spared." ”
Wei Yunxuan said: "After all, these people were all controlled by the underground killer organization before, and they can also be said to be their members, even if they have not committed a crime, they cannot be released." ”
Zhao Yan thought for a while and said, "What the prince said is right, so let's think about the next thing in the long run." ”
The soldiers searched around for an hour, and a soldier commander came to report that there was a small road in the woods across the valley, and that there were many footprints on the ground.
Zhao Yan asked the soldier commander to lead people along the trail to continue searching, and then he said to Han Xuening and them: "I reported to my men just now that we have found a possible escape route for the killer organization, let's keep chasing after them to see if we can catch up with the killer organization and wipe them out." ”
It was already six o'clock in the evening, and Han Xuening looked at the sky, which was slowly darkening.
Zhao Tianyun said to everyone: "It seems that we can't go back tonight, and we are going to spend the night here." ”
Now, the search for the black-clad killer organization has reached a critical time, and it is impossible for everyone to just give up and go back.
Han Xuening was worried about whether there would be an accident in Huafu, Bai Zijun said that Sister Mei and others might be unfavorable to Huafu, and now, the people in Huafu are the ones with the highest martial arts.
Although Xiao Chun and Xiao Xia are not bad at martial arts, they are enough to deal with those bodyguards around Sister Mei, and besides, there are so many people over there.
Wu Tong was also worried about whether something would happen to Huazi, and quietly said to Han Xuening: "Miss Xuening, if we can't go back today, I'm afraid that something will happen in Huafu." ”
Wu Tong's worries were right, Han Xue Ning thought about it, and now she can only tell Zhao Yan about this matter and let the landlord find a way.
Han Xuening told Zhao Yan about the people on Sister Mei's side who might have to deal with the Hua family tonight, and Zhao Yan immediately called the two soldiers to go back, and after they returned, they went to Huafu with their soldiers to protect the people inside.
After the soldier left, Han Xuening and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
Han Xuening hopes that the sisters in Washington are all right.
Of course, Wei Yunxuan also heard what Han Xuening said to Zhao Yan just now, and he said to Han Xuening: "Miss Xuening, don't worry, if the landlord sends troops to help, nothing will happen to the people in the Huafu!" ”
