In the middle of the moon, countless white mist spread out towards this mountain forest like a quilt, and the mountain forest seemed to be unusually quiet, but at this time, a panicked footsteps broke the silence here. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

A group of about a dozen people in ragged clothes broke into this mountain forest, they did not dare to carry torches, but they could barely see the road ahead by the moonlight in the sky, they groped their way and walked, very slowly, and occasionally one or two crows chirped in this forest, fanning the treetops.

"Daddy told you not to take this road, I heard that there is a gang of bandits here who are dedicated to robbing pedestrians in this neighborhood, and these crows are really scary."

The woman spoke, and followed a few steps forward to the middle-aged man in the lead.

The man had a long branch in his hand and was exploring the path ahead.

The man listened to the voice behind him, turned around and lowered his voice, "What do you know?" Where do you not go here? This is the only place to go to Dongjun, if you don't want to go to Dongjun, you can only bypass that three more days' journey, let alone to Dongjun, we are already starving to death when we are on the way, so I chose to set off in the middle of the night, those thieves will not stay here day and day. ”

The woman stopped talking and just tugged at her husband's sleeve tightly with one hand, and held the child in the other hand, who was already asleep and unaware, and the eerie atmosphere in the dense forest was terrifying.

They didn't know each other, but they went together, and no one dared to go on the road alone, after all, thinking that there were too many people, the gang of thieves did not dare to do anything to them.

From time to time, some people in the team tripped over branches or stones under their feet and fell to the ground, but they did not dare to make a sound despite the atmosphere.

The middle-aged man walking in front didn't know what he was tripping over, he lost his balance under his feet and fell to the ground, but he didn't feel any pain, he only felt something soft dragging him down, he looked at his body and exclaimed, "Corpse." ”

……

"It's a bandit, a bandit." I don't know who shouted.

The people behind him suddenly panicked, where could they still take care of seeing the road under their feet, wishing that their father and mother would have an extra pair of legs, and they fled to the rear in a hurry.

"Stop, stop." The man stood up and shouted in front of him, trying to stop them.

"Junko, Junko." He shouted again.

The man called Junko whispered twice.

"Quick, light the torch."

"But aren't you afraid of bringing in the mountain bandits?" Straight branches.

"Everyone is dead, where are the mountain bandits."

Among the men, a torch was lit, dispelling the surrounding fog.

The middle-aged man took the torch, relying on the experience of running a merchant when he was young, he boldly lowered his body and shone towards Fang Cai, and suddenly took a breath of cold air behind him, only to see the corpses that fell to the ground in a small place among the rocks, and even the dry yellow ground was soaked with bright red blood, and the most strange thing was that the corpses on the ground were missing everything except the head.

Vomit! What's more, he bent over and vomited on the ground, his face pale.

"Their heads are here."

Someone yelled in this direction.

On a tree not far from the side of the road, there were heads hanging on them, which looked like fruit trees full of fruit, and scavenging vultures were standing on these heads and gnawing on them, waiting for the light of the fire here to flutter their wings and fly away.

"There's a word down there." There is humanity.

Following the firelight, an old man in the team looked, "These seem to be the words of the Qin State." ”

"Don't just talk about words! What the hell is written on this, you always tell me. ”

The old man looked at the font on the tree, which was obviously carved with a sword, "It looks like a bandit or something?" Can't see clearly"

After a while, the old man confirmed, "These people are indeed bandits." ”

"These are bandits."

"Retribution has finally been meted out." Someone in the crowd said indignantly.

"Don't talk about this, let's hurry up and get on the road at this time."

……

……

After about five days, Chu Nan and the others were getting closer and closer to Dongjun, and the people on both sides of the road gradually increased, and occasionally curious passers-by looked at this excellent cavalry team.

Chu Nan and Zhong Liwu Zhao Qing walked side by side, he reined in his horse, Chu Nan took out a map made of parchment from his arms, this map is a few simple except for the necessary mountain and river place names, the rest are brushed aside, only to see that in the most conspicuous place, two big characters were written in Qin script, Wangchuan.

In front of them is Wangchuan County, and when they arrive in Wangchuan County, it means that they have arrived at the destination of this time, Dongjun.

The galloping cavalry troop on the pipes attracted the attention of pedestrians.

In a post house in front, a group of people in official uniforms had been waiting for a long time, and when someone returned, they came out to arrange their clothes and stood respectfully on the side of the road.

Zhaoqin looked at the person in front of him and said to this Chu Nan, "It seems that someone has already known that you are coming to Dongjun." ”

"It's strange that they don't know."

Chu Nan swung his whip forward, and the team behind him hurriedly followed.

Looking at the luxurious car in the middle of the line, these people knelt down one after another.

"Wangchuan County Cheng Zhukang, meet the county guard."

"Meet the county guard." The numerous officials behind him chanted in unison.

However, after a long time, there was no movement in the carriage, and there was some confusion, Zhu Kang said loudly again, "Zhu Kang of Wangchuan County and Zhu Kang Cheng meet the county guard. ”

However, the situation is still like this, he looked up at the cavalry next to the car with a serious look, but his face seemed to be holding back a smile, could it be that the county guard is testing them, as the saying goes, the new official takes office with three fires, but I didn't expect this first fire to be like this, who made him a county guard and he was just a county guard? The official university crushed people to death! Zhu Kang thought and was about to speak again.

At this moment, a knight not far from him stepped forward, "Lord County, Lord County is not in the car but here, and the car is just a pile of bamboo slips." ”

Gu Peng pointed to Chu Nan's figure.

He followed his finger and saw a young man in armor, but this person was really a little too young, but he was in his early twenties, could this be the new county guard, wasn't this a joke with them? They had long known that the new county guard was coming to Dongjun, but they didn't know who it was, so they had to wait for five days in this Wangchuan post station, in order to be able to make a good impression on the new county guard.

Who knew that what he was waiting for was such a result, think about what he was doing at his age, he was just a runaway in the county government, and people were really angry compared to people.
