Chapter 614: There Will Be No Living
To the west of Yuhua Town, there is a road leading to the mountain.
The weather was slightly cold, and Wen Qingzhu also felt a little cold when he wore an autumn shirt.
Xi'er followed behind and took out her cloak and came out: "Madame, do you want to put on this?" ”
Wen Qingzhu shook his head: "No, wait a little longer, just get warm, we have to walk faster, otherwise we won't be able to catch up with them." ”
Hu Sen, who was leading the way in front, looked back, and then said something to the tall man beside him.
They slowed down.
The mountain road became more and more rugged, even if Hu Sen and the others slowed down, Wen Qingzhu's speed became slower and slower.
Half an hour later, Hussein and the others finally stopped.
Wen Qingzhu panted to their side, and looked down, a cloud of mist.
Hu Sen pointed to the valley in front of him and said, "This ravine used to be the place where the Wu people lived for generations, and it was also the place where the war was fiercest back then. ”
Wen Qingzhu asked Xi'er to hand her the monocular and carefully observed the terrain here.
Although it is not very obvious, traces of human activity can be seen everywhere.
"It seems that Master Hou and they have already come." Wen Qingzhu handed the monocular back.
Hu Sen pointed to a mountain road on the right and said, "There is a secret passage over there, only Grandpa Ha knows." ”
"Let's go, then." Wen Qingzhu didn't talk nonsense, turned around and left.
"Hmm." Hu Sen thought that Wen Qingzhu would want to take a break, after all, she had been walking for so long, and she was very tired from looking at it.
There were about 20 people in their group, ten on Wen Qingzhu's side and ten on Hu Sen's side.
Jiang Yuanhan took people to Cangzhou to investigate, Green Tao stayed in the inn to guard the old man, and Wen Qingzhu and Hu Sen took people to the hinterland of the Wu clan.
The sky slowly darkened, and Hu Sen asked the tall man beside him: "Seventh brother, how long will it take?" ”
The seventh brother pointed to the front and made a three.
Hussen finally reassured, that should be soon.
Shortly after it got dark, they finally reached the bottom.
The mountain was too humid to light the torches, so Wen Qingzhu took the night pearl and asked Xi'er to distribute it to them.
The surroundings suddenly lit up, and the seventh brother put on the mask he had prepared before and pointed at himself.
Wen Qingzhu and the others understood, and they also put on all the masks they had prepared before.
Immediately after, Brother Qi led them to find the entrance of a cave.
Everyone walked in, and Wen Qingzhu followed the faint light to observe the cave.
Compared to the dampness outside, the inside of the cave is much drier and less cold.
After turning around, the seventh brother took him to a cave with no way forward.
He gestured to Hussen.
After Hu Sen understood, he turned his head to them and said, "Brother Qi said that there are many insects and beasts at night, so let's rest here for the time being for the night and set off tomorrow." ”
Wen Qingzhu nodded, and Xi'er went to prepare a sleeping bag and set up a suggested tent.
After she entered, Wen Qingzhu found that Hu Sen's man called Seventh Brother had taken a cloth bag out and sprinkled a layer of black powder on the entrance.
A smell of medicine suddenly came.
Wen Qingzhu beckoned Hu Sen over and asked him, "Seventh Brother can't speak?" ”
"Well, in the past, Brother Qi couldn't speak, he was very thin, and after Grandpa Ha's sons died, he adopted him." Speaking of Brother Qi's life experience, Hu Sen had compassion in his eyes.
Wen Qingzhu asked again: "Why does Grandpa Ha hate the Long family so much?" ”
At the time of the inn, one of the conditions for the old man to compromise was to let him kill the Long Dynasty with his own hands, that is, the princess of Runan in Cangzhou.
"Madam, what happened to the Ha family is actually no different from what happened to the Teng family, the Teng family has the ability to resist and have the courage to leave Jinzhou, but the Ha family does not."
Hu Sen obviously didn't want to say more, so Wen Qingzhu didn't ask more.
In the middle of the night, there was silence all around, except for the sound of shallow breathing.
Wen Qingzhu has always slept lightly and has a keen sense of smell.
When the ground trembled slightly, she immediately came to her senses, and Xi'er was already squatting on the ground.
With the glimmer of the night pearl, Wen Qingzhu exchanged a look with her.
Wen Qingzhu hid the night pearl, and Xi'er quietly opened the curtain of the tent.
Looking at the entrance of the cave, I saw that the entrance of the cave was densely packed with creatures of all sizes.
Those vague and unreal shadows made Xi'er's scalp tingle.
After she closed the tent, Wen Qingzhu took out the Night Pearl.
Xi'er told her about the situation outside in sign language.
Wen Qingzhu thought for a moment, it should be that black powder that worked.
However, the tremor on the ground would definitely not be caused by the insects and beasts in the mountains.
Just as she was hesitating to wake everyone up, Hu Sen suddenly shouted.
Immediately after the fire flashed outside, Xi'er immediately opened the curtain.
When she saw the situation outside, she instantly gasped!
Wen Qingzhu was holding a small medicine bottle in her hand, the lid had been opened, and she followed suit.
I was instantly stunned by the scene in front of me!
Except for Seventh Brother, everyone had a few black bugs lying on their faces, only the size of a fingernail.
People with bugs, their faces were blue, they tried to stand up, but they didn't seem to have the strength.
The seventh brother was roughly pulling out the insects on Hu Sen's face, and when he pulled one out, Hu Sen couldn't help but scream.
After a while, the bugs were pulled out, and Hu Sen's face regained some blood.
Wen Qingzhu immediately took out his dagger and walked in front of the secret guards, helping to cut off the insects on their faces with Xi'er.
She also checked the pulse by the way, they were poisoned, and it looked more like they had been drugged.
Wen Qingzhu took out the Brain Awakening Pill and took one for each of them.
By the time the bugs on everyone's faces were removed, it was already half an hour later.
At this time, although Hu Sen had recovered, his face was pale and he was obviously frightened.
Walking in front of Wen Qingzhu, he pointed at Seventh Brother and said, "Seventh Brother asked me to ask you, why didn't you and Xi'er get hit?" ”
"This!" Wen Qingzhu took out a purse and opened it, revealing a white stone.
After the seventh brother saw the things in her hand clearly, his eyes trembled, and he almost knelt down subconsciously.
The Wu people who came with Seventh Brother also knelt down.
After putting away the stone, Wen Qingzhu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Looks like it's the right thing to bring with you.
At the same time, the tremors of the ground became more and more pronounced.
The seventh brother stood up, waved his hand, and took the lead in putting on the mask.
Hu Sen immediately said, "Everyone, get ready, the night watchman of the Wu Clan is coming!" ”
Under Wen Qingzhu's command, all traces of this cave were cleared.
Taking advantage of the night, they followed behind the seventh brother and began to move towards the hinterland of the Wu clan.
About half an hour later, a group of men wearing black cloaks appeared at the entrance of the cave.
The leader of the man, with a silver plate on his withered and blackened palm, and the light of the torch shone with a penetrating light.
"The Upper Sacred Stone once appeared here." An unvoiced voice came from under the cloak holding the silver plate.
There was a noticeable commotion among the people around.
After a while, the person holding the silver plate pointed in the direction of Wen Qingzhu and said, "Over there!" ”
A group of people began to chase in the direction of Wen Qingzhu.
Wen Qingzhu and his party had just come out of the cave and saw the moon in the sky.
The seventh brother led them on, and after a while, they came to a river.
There were three or four small boats docked on the shore, and under the command of the seventh brother, everyone boarded the boat at one time.
As the water flowed down, the cloaked man, who was still in the cave, suddenly stopped.
"No response!"
"What then?" Someone else asked.
The man holding the silver plate raised his head, revealing a dark face: "Keep chasing!" The Sacred Stone has not appeared for nearly fifty years, and this appearance must be a divine directive! ”
Follow the river all the way down until it slowly brightens.
Wen Qingzhu saw the surrounding scenery clearly, overgrown with weeds, trees covering the sky and the sun, and from time to time birds suddenly flew up.
The deep mountains and rivers were steamy, and Wen Qingzhu wrapped his cloak tightly and carefully observed the surroundings.
But no matter how she looked, she couldn't remember the way.
There are no people here, and it changes every few days, and people who have not lived here since childhood can't tell the direction at all.
"It's here!" Hu Sen looked at the front excitedly and said excitedly.
Wen Qingzhu looked up and saw that under the morning light, there was a quiet village.
The current has also slowed down, and ships have come to shore.
Wen Qingzhu got off the boat and looked at the unusually quiet village in front of him, feeling inexplicably uneasy.
She had read a lot of books, and the people who lived in the mountains followed this rule of sunrise and sunset.
Now that the morning light has appeared, and the sun will show itself in less than two quarters of an hour, how can the village still be quiet?
According to Old Man Ha, he hasn't been back for two years.
Because he wanted to take over the Teng family, Old Man Ha took away all the elites in the village, and they first came back to the village half a year ago.
However, half a year earlier, the blood sacrifice had already begun.
Except for Wen Qingzhu and Hu Sen and Hu Sen, the rest of the people had more or less joy on their faces.
After all, this is their home, and it is necessary to come back and see it.
Except for Brother Qi, the rest of the people in front couldn't help but chat.
Although Wen Qingzhu didn't understand what he said, judging from their expressions, they were very happy.
And Wen Qingzhu and his party were strangely silent.
The people she brought with her were all living a life of licking blood at the tip of a knife, and their perception of danger was also more acute.
Their silence soon caught Hussen's attention.
Hu Sen deliberately took a few steps behind, walked beside Wen Qingzhu, looked at her with a serious expression and asked, "Madame, do you think something is wrong?" ”
"Don't you think the village ahead is too quiet?" Wen Qingzhu looked in front of him, the village was getting closer and closer, but they never saw any traces of human activity.
Not to mention what sounds are heard.
Hu Sen followed and looked over, frowning slightly: "I also asked just now, they said that after the Ha family was targeted by the Long family, everyone was more used to being quiet." ”
"No, it's different." Wen Qingzhu still firmly believes that there are no living people in this village.
She believes in her own realization.
Seeing that the village was getting closer and closer, the voice in front of me became quieter.
They also seemed to realize that something was wrong, and unconsciously quickened their pace.
After about two quarters of an hour, they crossed the valley and came to the entrance of the village.
A withered corpse was laid out in front of everyone.
At this moment, everyone was silent.
A young man of medium height walked up to him, knelt down in front of the corpse, and trembled and reached out to touch the necklace around the corpse's neck.
"Daddy...... Father! Wake up! The young man threw himself on top of him and began to cry loudly.
Wen Qingzhu walked over and helped the young man up: "I'll take a look." ”
After some inspection, Wen Qingzhu got up and said to Hu Sen: "One blow kills, there is a poisonous needle on the neck, according to the pulse, it is the heart-devouring poison of the Wu clan." ”
"Heart-devouring poison...... "This kind of poison is only available in the Teng family and the Long family, and the last people in the Teng family are in Jinju, so ......"
Wen Qingzhu took his words: "It was killed by the Long family, and if nothing happens, there should be no living people in the village." ”
The rest of the Wu people hurried towards the village, where their families were located!
Walking all the way, there were corpses along the way.
After Wen Qingzhu checked them one by one, except for a small number of people who were fatally injured by weapons, the rest of them were poisoned to death.
