The snow had just melted halfway down the mountain, and several catchers led by the catchers dug up the remnants of snow covering the ground, dug up the ground, and found another corpse from this dirt pit.

Ignoring the smell of decay, the cow trapper examined the body, and according to some characteristics, he found that the creature was the villager who had disappeared months earlier. Because when their father died, there was no one to take care of them, and now his children had already sold themselves to Manichaeism.

After examining the wounds of these corpses, it was found that the cause of death was a sharp weapon cutting the throat, and finally died of blood loss.

For the murderer, he already has a general grasp, a lot of insufficient evidence, and the target, which coincides with the phenomenon of scraping children in Chang'an, plus the orphans whose parents died were all adopted by the Manichaeans, it is very likely that they did it, and they are destined to sleep tonight.

At night, Niu Catcher squatted under the small wooden bridge in Xibian Village outside Chang'an City with more than a dozen catchers. On the opposite side of the bridge is Widow Zhang's house, because there are two cows at home, she can make a living by helping a large family farm, plus she has also cultivated an acre of land to grow rice, so food and clothing are not a problem.

Recently, however, a cow died for unknown reasons, and the cow hunter inspected the cow and found it poisoned to death, and at the same time advised them not to eat it but to bury it.

Looking at the thick darkness in the sky, the sound of the non-stop stream stirred the head of the cow catcher, and he had been practicing martial arts for many years, but tonight was very special.

Forced to feel restless, gradually calmed down, pressed the long knife that had accompanied him for many years, and slowly exhaled the heat, it's time to wait for so long, this group of bandits who like to stir up the wind and rain can't let go of this kind of family with children, bad people can't manage the lonely village outside Chang'an City, and justice can only rely on them.

Patience waited, the cold invaded the trappers who were dormant on the frozen soil of the stream wall all the time, and many people had already made a rustling sound that was shaking because of the cold invasion.

"Zheng Kaiyi, bring ginger water, let the brothers drink a few sips, it can relieve the cold a little!" Niu Zhutou whispered to the assistant beside him.

Zheng Kaiyi has been following Niu Zhutou for more than ten years, and he is a good catcher, so he took out a few jars of ginger water prepared and handed them to these brothers, and at the same time handed them to Niu Zhutou.

"Boss Niu, they shouldn't come, the brothers are all too cold, why don't you leave tonight?" Zheng Kaiyi came to the front of the boss, took out the cold sesame cake, and sent it to Niu Zhan.

Niu Zhutou did not hesitate, took the sesame cake briskly, took a bite, ate it slowly, and replied affirmatively, "Tonight, Manichaeism will definitely return, I have a feeling that they will not let go of this opportunity, let alone this family!" ”

"Well," Zheng Kaiyi casually took a bite of the Hu Cake and condemned it softly, "Manichaeism has done a lot of evil and has been at large, if you come tonight, you will catch them all, take them back to the Fa, and then eradicate all the Manichaeism in Chang'an, which can be regarded as eliminating harm for the people, and this credit is our boss, don't you say?" ”

"Yes!"

"Haha..."

"Shhhh Be quiet, laugh at something, be serious, you guys, really," Niu Zhutou rudely smashed Zheng Kaiyi a few times with a Hu cake, and the corners of his mouth still unobtrusively hooked up a satisfied arc, this group of team members were all brought up by themselves, all of them were men who stood up to the sky, there was no one who was a bad seed, and there was no one who did not have scars on his body! When fighting with the wicked, none of them is left behind, all the wolves rush forward, the wicked are ferocious, we are more ferocious, the wicked are ferocious, we are more ferocious.

The only way to deal with the clown in the dark night is to turn into darkness!

Hmph, if there were such a group of brothers in Xiangjun, then the little dragon king of the Han River would not honestly become a little shrimp.

Picked up the jar and poured a big mouthful, frowning, this ginger water was actually salted, but there was no salt in the past, "Zheng Kaiyi, you put salt in this ginger water, the taste is different from the previous one, weird!" ”

Zheng Kaiyi's grinning mouth was a little unnatural, but it was quickly covered up, "I often drink that kind of ginger water that has no taste at all, I think it's better to add something, and it tastes better!" ”

"You kid, you have a lot of ghost ideas, and you know how to take care of people, and you care about our feelings," Niu Zhutou didn't suspect it, his ears were listening to the surrounding movements, and even the sound of rats moving around the family could be heard clearly, and after drinking the ginger water, he returned the jar to Zheng Kaiyi, staring at the darkness ahead with deep eyes.

About half an hour later, the cow catcher who was sleepy in his heart was confused, what happened? His head was shaking, and with a stroke of luck, he forcibly suppressed the fainting, looked to the side, and found that the brothers around him were lying asleep on the frozen ground.

Goo, goo!

The sound of birds is so close! Niu Zhutou quickly got up vigilantly and looked at Zheng Kaiyi, the voice came from his abdomen, and Zheng Kaiyi also stood up, looking different from usual, the whole person was gloomy, ice cubes hung on the heart cliff, and he wondered, "What's wrong with you?" Why am I so dizzy? ”

"Boss, you don't remember, the ginger water you just drank was full of one or two sweat pills, because I was afraid that you would taste it, so I put salt!" Zheng Kaiyi's face gradually turned hideous, and his face trembled, "I was a member of Manichaeism more than ten years ago, I'm afraid no one knows about this, and it's normal that you don't know, but today I'm afraid I can't call you brothers, I have to go back!" ”

Niu Zhutou took a few steps back, sleepiness spread all over his body like a vine, trembling his thighs, and he used all his strength to continue to suppress the medicinal power of the sweat pill, trying not to lose consciousness in his head, he heard Zheng Kaiyi's words, no matter what, he couldn't believe that the person he brought up with one hand was actually a ghost in Manichaeism, "So to speak..."

Zheng Kaiyi was crazy, pulled out the Pu knife, and slashed at the head of the cow catcher who was closest to him on weekdays, and slashed it firmly on the other party's shoulder. Because of the other party's martial arts training and armor, this knife did not split the old cow in half, but stuck on the shoulder of the cow catcher. Bright red blood splattered into Zheng Kaiyi's crazy eyes, causing him to squint slightly in discomfort.

The cow catcher woke up from the pain, and the person in front of him was not a brother, but an enemy, a wicked person!

"Drink!"

A punch smashed out, hit Zheng Kaiyi's chest, and knocked it several feet away, Niu Zhutou was a little surprised, and the other arm was not raised, and then he suddenly woke up to the knife in his shoulder.

Two more figures rushed out of the darkness, surrounded and killed left and right, and two knives and one shot were already attacking head-on.

Hearing the sound of rapid footsteps, the bull head leaned back and turned over to avoid the slash. But he didn't want to dodge the scimitar's slashing, the spear hovered and fell to his chest, smashing down heavily, and the strength was stretched into the flesh inch by inch, and the blood of the cow catcher was not suppressed and spurted out, this blow hurt the chest and lungs.

Rolling on the ground, falling into the stream, pulling out the big knife on his body, and struggling to carry the attack with one hand, finally the knife broke the man and fell into the deep stream and turbulence.

"What to do? Cao Zhutou, "The Grand Sect Master of Manichaeism, Toman Mountain, held the blood-dripping double scimitar, and looked at the turbulent stream with some unwillingness, and almost killed the other party.

Plopping, without hesitation, Cao Zhutou jumped down the stream, and soon turned ashore, trembling and jumping, soaking wet, too cold.

"Follow the shore! Whether you live or die, you must see the corpse! ”

Cao Zhutou's voice was eager, obviously a little difficult to accept Lao Niu's fall into the stream, why is the stream here so turbulent, and it is so deep, he has personally confirmed, it is impossible to hide people here.

After a long time, a heavy glimmer of light appeared on the horizon, and the frozen water suddenly burst with a hiss, and a wretched figure rushed out, because the hair wrapped in the frost grew like kelp on his skull.

Niu Zhu's head and shoulders stopped the injury because of the freezing, he walked crookedly, like an unconscious zombie, came to the bright red stained creek wall, his red eyes flashed endless hatred, he was still alive, he was also surprised, there was a cave at the bottom of the stream, his body just squeezed into it, although it was pitch black, but he persevered, did not soak in the water all the time, and even ate a four-legged creature encountered in the narrow dark cave because of the cold.

One step at a time, the living cow head headed in the direction of Chang'an. Read the latest chapter of "Steamed Tang Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
