Whether you want to or not, you have been forcibly dragged into this pool of troubled waters, is it really as Xiang Liu said, is it God's fate?

Thinking of this, Li Han was anxious, the thief and Lao Tzu must have an enmity, so he left his hometown and left his parents to come to this ghost era, and he didn't allow him to live a successful life, and put so many bad things on his head, now it's okay, this trip can't say that he has to make some trouble in the Huns, and don't let the crab that walks sideways succeed.

With a belly of anger, Li Han fell asleep, who knew that as soon as he was confused, he saw Liu Bei's face full of tears, looking at him speechlessly and choking, and the elder who stretched out helplessly at him with one hand, longing for him to pull her over, but there was a huge crab behind her that clamped her slender waist and dragged her to the sea.

Li Han screamed and chased after him to snatch it, but he was still a step too late, and watched Liu Bottle disappear into the sea little by little, and at the last moment, it was her white and tender hand that slowly sank helplessly on the water......

Suddenly opened his eyes and sat up, Li Han was covered with cold sweat, his face was full of tears, and he understood that he had a nightmare.

However, Liu Bei in the dream is so clear, and the scenes in the dream are so realistic, it seems that Liu Bei must be very painful, no, she must be found as soon as possible.

Tossing and turning to dawn, although the snow has not stopped, it is much smaller, Zhang Fangda shouted outside early in the morning to set off, Li Han walked out, and just saw the two palace maids who were driven away by him from Liu Bottle, Su'e and the two palace maids who were still there, supporting a woman in costume to slowly board the princess carriage that originally belonged to Liu Bottle.

This is enough to show that Zhang Fangda completely followed his advice and quickly chose the palace maid to replace Liu Bei to disguise the princess.

Now in this send-off team, the princess has it, and everything seems to have not changed, but he, Li Han, can no longer board the princess's carriage as a personal maid, let alone hear Liu Bottle's silver bell-like laughter all the time.

The identity has been revealed, Li Han and Li San have changed into men's clothes and followed Zhang Fangda as an entourage.

Zhang Fangda was very important to Li Han, and divided the spare horses among the two of them to ride on each other, and the team walked down the mountain with difficulty in the snow.

Before leaving, Li Han looked back at this Taoist temple, only to see three big characters written on the plaque "Sanqingguan".

On the way down the mountain, the road was safe, near noon the snow completely stopped, although the road was difficult to walk, after all, there were no bad people blocking the way, and at dusk finally saw the city wall of Gaonu, which made the already tired group of people breathe a sigh of relief.

At the end of the Qin Dynasty and the beginning of the Han Dynasty, Yan'an was not yet a large scale, it was a small county town belonging to Shangjun, the name of the county was Gaonu County, the current scope was not large, and it was not until Emperor Wu moved the people here on a large scale that it began to flourish, so the Gaonu seen by Li Han and others was a rather inconspicuous small city.

The group was full of hot soup and warm rooms, one by one, lifting their spirits, dragging their tired legs to the city gate, it was strange that the city gate was open but unguarded, and the team walked into the county seat unimpeded.

Li Han looked at the empty streets of the city on his horse, there was not even a single footprint on the snow, it was smooth and white like an inaccessible desert, and the houses not far away were also silent under the heavy snow, without a single light or a dog roaring, it looked like a dead city.

"Zhang Gong, don't rush in first, it's weird!" Li Han said in a deep voice.

Zhang Fangda had already seen that something was wrong, thinking of the waves of sergeants sent one after another yesterday but there was no news, and then looking at the ghostly county, his cold sweat came out, and he looked at Li Han in horror and asked, "What do you think happened?" ”

Li Han jumped off the horse with a cold face and said, "The team will wait here first, and I'll go with Li San to investigate." ”

Zhang Fangda said: "Send my five personal guards to you." ”

Li Han agreed, and took Li San and five guards to walk into the county seat on a foot of deep snow, the county government was not far away, the door was also dark and gloomy, and the gate was open.

The twilight was heavy, and a few people walked into the county office in the snow, and there was a dead silence inside and outside, but there were no dead bodies, and it was clean and tidy everywhere.

"Li San, a few of you will investigate back and forth, and if there is no danger, let the team enter the county government first." Li Han commanded.

For a while, a few people investigated the corners and corners of the county yajiao, except for the emptiness, there was no danger.

Li Han walked out of the city and said to Zhang Fangda: "Gong Zhang, the nearest town to Gaonu is also in Pingdu, a hundred and ten miles away, it is getting late at this moment, we must not rush at night, even if there is something strange here, we can only settle down temporarily, let the team enter the county government first, and then we will continue to investigate." ”

Zhang Fangda thought about it, and it was true, he couldn't let so many people stand in the snow, so he commanded the frightened brigade to enter the county government and quickly closed the door.

Li Han did not stay in the county office, and took Li San and a few guards to investigate around the dead and silent county seat, Gaonu County is not even prosperous, there are two streets outside the horizontal and vertical streets, which is the dilapidated city wall on the periphery.

They have gone in and seen every house, and the house is neat, there is not the slightest trace of fighting and struggling, and there is not the slightest blood stain, as if the whole city has discussed it, dressed neatly and went out to visit relatives or watch a play.

However, all this normal situation does not give people the slightest sense of peace and tranquility, but is more creepy than the mess on the ground, because on such a snowy night, there is no reason for the whole city to abandon the warmth of their home, so where are these people?

Li Han walked out of the last dwelling and looked at the dark and dreary snow set off by the deepening twilight, on which there were only the footprints of a few of them when they came, which showed that before the snow stopped, the city had undergone great changes.

Now that the snow has stopped, it has been nearly a day, and anything can happen for such a long time, has this hundred, or even thousand, of human lives been quietly harvested by anyone?

"Master, it looks like there's nothing to investigate, you're tired, let's go back to the county government to rest first." Li San persuaded him.

"Alas......" Li Han said with red eyes: "Looking at the scale of these dwellings, there are not thousands of people in the city, but eight or nine hundred, and they just disappeared, and these are all living human lives!" Since we have met them, how can we bear not to find their traces. ”

Li San was silent.

Li Han's face was gloomy, he was not convinced, thousands of people wanted to get rid of it, as well as the elderly, children, livestock or something, it was impossible not to leave a trace, if it weren't for this hellish snowfall, he would have found out the clue a long time ago, damn, this gangster would really pick a time to commit crimes.

With the mood of not admitting defeat, with an inexplicable indignation, Li Han waved his hand to let the guards go back to the county office first, and he and Li San explored again along the city wall, and when they walked to the northernmost point, they suddenly smelled a faint fishy smell, which was a unique smell of cattle and sheep.

Li Han was in high spirits, and he followed his breath all the way to the city wall, and suddenly found that there was a snowdrift that was very strange, showing an irregular shape on the left and right, instead of being flat on both sides but uneven like the city walls in other places.

"Give me the knife." Li Han stretched out his hand to Li San.

Taking Li San's waist knife, Li Han stabbed at a high bulging snowdrift, but stabbed a slightly soft thing, he pulled out the knife, and the tip of the knife was bloody.

Li Handeng's expression changed greatly, he was afraid that innocent people were hidden under the snow, and he quickly cleared the snow, and he breathed a sigh of relief, because a dead sheep was exposed, which was not frozen hard, which was enough to show that the time of death was not too long.

Li San saw that his master had found something, and hurriedly helped kick off the snow, and soon, a pile of hundreds of dead sheep was revealed, as well as one or twenty dead dogs, all of which were killed by a knife under the neck, and were skillfully piled up in a gap in the city wall, and the heavy snow completely covered it up, as if the city wall had not been broken, if it weren't for Li Han's carefulness, it would have been fooled.

However, the place where the dead bodies of sheep and dogs are piled up, there are no large blood stains on the ground that these beasts should have been killed, which is enough to show that this is not the first scene of the slaughter of these beasts, so where is the blood of these beasts?

Li Han took a silver hairpin from his hair and inserted it into the wound of the dead sheep to examine it, then raised his head and said to Li San: "You go and report to Zhang Gong, and ask him to send someone to carry these sheep and dogs back to the county office, clean them up and cook them for everyone to eat, there is no poison." ”

"Master, it's not appropriate for you to stay alone, right?"

"It's okay, the gangsters will play this empty city trick for us, and we won't show up in public again, you go and come back quickly, I'm not in the way."

"Yes, be careful."

After Li San went, Li Han moved the dead sheep a little away and prepared to drill out of the crack in the city wall to see where it went, but who knew that Xiang Liu's weak figure stepped on the snow, flying like a willow leaf, and almost did not leave deep footprints on the snow.

"Alas, people have to be able to do light work." Li Han sighed.

"It's not easy for you to learn, although this exercise is a secret that Chutian Palace does not pass on, but I can teach it to you." Xiang Liu said.

Li Han's chest was clogged with a ball of depression, and he always felt that there was a very important thing that he couldn't remember, and he couldn't care about surprise when he heard Xiang Liu's promise, so he nodded and said, "What are you doing when you come out so cold?" ”

"Li Han, are you doing something in the underground palace of Meridian Ridge?" Xiang Liu was in a hurry, so he leaned over and asked in his ear hurriedly.

Li Han's heart froze, and the feeling of loss just now appeared again, and he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Canglong came to tell me, saying that Prince Qin's dead soldiers died a lot in the underground palace, and there is an important place where no one dares to enter, and the shaman of the Huns said that this place is cursed, and I think it can only be that you have such ability."

Li Han was even more shocked: "When did the crab man die?" How did the Huns come? ”

"Last night." Xiang Liu has always only answered what she thinks should be answered, and the second question directly refuses to answer.
