Chapter 13: Cloudy

There was a deathly silence, the wheezing in the air grew louder, and then the wolves exploded completely.

嗷~~""嗷~~~"

The wolves suddenly went crazy and retreated, losing their head wolf in such a short period of time, and the wolves lost all their fighting spirit, and fled in all directions as if they were fleeing, without the ferocious and domineering when they came.

"Little ........." bearded man didn't know how to call Ling Yun for a while.

"Brother Shi!" The tears in the little fox's eyes poured out like a waterfall, and he didn't care about anything else, ran up and hugged Ling Yun, and cried bitterly in his arms.

"Alright, alright, I'm fine." Ling Yun stroked the little fox's hair, hugged her gently, and comforted.

Turning his head, Ling Yun said to the bearded man: "Brother Xiao, we have to hurry to the station, if we don't hurry, not only will the evidence be erased, but the wolves will also react, and everything we do will be meaningless." ”

"Okay, let's go right away." The bearded man retrieves the steel knife. Will there really be an answer to the station?

After hearing Ling Yun's words, the little fox left Ling Yun's arms and gently wiped away the tears on his face with his sleeve. The moonlight sprinkled through the cracks in the trees, the beauty was like a flower, the delicate face was like water, and the tears were wiped under the moon, Chu Chu was pitiful, Ling Yun was stunned directly. In this life, the only person who can make Ling Yun lose his temper like this at an emergency moment may be Xiaoli.

"Brother Shi, let's go." I don't know if it's because I've just cried or because I'm shy, the little fox's face is red in the faint light, and it's so good-looking.

"Hmm." Ling Yun came back to his senses.

The three of them lit the lighting rods and hurried to the station.

The garrison is a small camp, surrounded by several houses, there is a sentry tower dozens of meters high in the middle, which can be seen in the forest during the day as long as you look up, so even if it is dark at night, Lingyun and they can easily find the target.

The garrison was full of corpses, and it was clear that there were not only soldiers but also many civilians, and it is estimated that many nearby villagers fled here at that time. However, the garrison was breached, the fence was destroyed, the houses collapsed, and everything that had been before was overturned. What [Howling Wolves] group killed humans is just a lie, judging from the traces of destroying this place, it is only humanoid creatures who can do this kind of thing.

The [Whistling Wolves] group is just a guarded dog that is raised, and the real murderer is still in the shadows. Ling Yun's brows tightened, things were much more complicated than he had imagined.

Bite! 【Princess's Request】Quest clue changed!

Receive a new hint: Find the [Dark Messenger] in the basement and kill it, capture the [Darkening Experiment Reagent], and bring it to the Imperial Maiden.

"Brother Xiao, little fox, let's enter the watchtower." Ling Yun took the lead and pushed open the door of the watchtower.

The guard tower was already full of dust, no one had been here for many years, and the bodies of the former were still in place, and the dead soldiers had to be buried under the dust, which was really sad.

"Bang!" Lingyun closed the door and closed the door with a table.

"Little brother, you said there is the answer to everything here, where?" The bearded man asked.

"Brother Xiao, let's take turns." Ling Yun didn't immediately answer the bearded man's question, and continued, "Actually, at the beginning, I guessed that you had something to hide from us, and I also knew that you had a lot to ask. Yes, in fact, I started planning since I knew you were hiding something, and although there were many variables in the process, such as the strength of the wolf king, the result did not change. Isn't everyone's laughter kind, Brother Xiao, do you remember the guard at the door of [Xuanmu Ya] before? When the guard laughs at you, it is clearly a ridicule, which means that you don't seem to be very popular, but you yourself said that your former 'brother' didn't say that, and you even subconsciously called the guard 'that', and the staffing of [Xuanmu Ya] is only for royal service, so there must not be many members, but all of them are elites, so you should all know each other, but otherwise, your relationship with them is not as good as it should be. Judging from the three days you have been together, Brother Xiao, you are not an arrogant person, but why? Because three years ago, your brothers died, and you met us and traveled together for three days without saying anything about three years ago, because there was none! Remember what the Wolf King did before he died? It has sent all the wolves to besiege you, and it has come to kill me alone, why? If the wolves surround me, then I will definitely die, but it does this, not because it is arrogant, but because your level exceeds it by a lot, the wolf king is level 41, and your level can kill the wolf king with one more blow, otherwise the wolf king will not do this, it is afraid that you will kill him desperately, it is just afraid of death. ”

"You said you were forty-three, but you're actually fifty-three, and you're still young. The beard is just a prop for you to cover yourself, not only to cover your age, but also to cover your heart, so ......." Ling Yun sighed.

The beard trembled, and his eyes suddenly turned red.

"Such a talent cannot be confined to this small place, you didn't leave because you want revenge, you want to know the truth, find the answer for your brothers." Ling Yun glanced at the bearded: "So when you see an opportunity to take revenge, you lose your mind." When you saw me make a mess of the wolves, you saw an opportunity to find out the truth and get revenge, so you ended up desperately trying to save me even at the risk of your own safety. Am I right, Brother Xiao. ”

"As for what you want to know, I can only tell you that except for the Wolf King, who is stronger than I expected, everything else is in my plan. It's time, Brother Xiao, take out what you found in the village and explain everything clearly. ”

After Ling Yun finished speaking, he found a place to sit down with the little fox.

The atmosphere became cold, and after a long time, the bearded man who had been keeping his head down before raised his head.

"How did you know I found something in the village?" The bearded man asked.

"It's very simple, with your speed and eagerness at the time, you didn't want to be late after knowing that I had found a clue, and you wanted me and the little fox to wait for you at the door, so I concluded that you found some clues, but you didn't say anything. That thing was left by your brother, otherwise you wouldn't have been so uncool later. ”

"........." the bearded man stopped talking.

After being silent for a long time, Ling Yun saw that the bearded man still refused to speak, got up and said, "Since the eldest brother refuses to speak, then we ......"

"I said." The bearded man seemed to say this with all his might.

"Actually, three years ago, I just joined the [Xuanmu Ya], at that time I was the youngest guard in the [Xuanmu Ya], and the other guards liked me very much, treating me like a younger brother, and I also regarded them as brothers. At that time, my brother was also in the [Xuanmu Ya], he was the strongest guard at that time, and the [Xuanmu Ya] was very harmonious, and everyone was working happily. The bearded man had a wistful look on his face.

"But it was on that rainy night that the [Black Fire Ridge Massacre] happened. [Xuanmu Ya] was ordered to go out, but I was seriously injured, so my eldest brother Xiao Shan left me at home to recuperate, and my brothers ..... Brave the rain and set off. Afterwards....... Afterwards..... It...... And they ...... Gone and never returned, even ....... I can't even find the bones," and the bearded man couldn't stop crying for a while.

"Uncle...."The little fox tried to comfort the bearded, but he was in tears.

"So what exactly did you find in the village? How do you know where their bones might be? Ling Yun asked.

"Actually, [Xuanmu Ya] has a special contact method that only my brothers and I know, and that's what I found in the village." The bearded man took out a small cloth bag from his arms, opened it carefully, and said, "Actually, I don't want to take it out, my brothers left it for me....... It's just their ....... Advice and full money ......"

Advice? Ling Yun asked, then carefully pulled out a note from the thick pile of coins.

Presumably buried in the ground, the note is well preserved, which reads:

Xiao Teng:

Brothers are unfortunate today, and may not be able to take care of you in the future. But what is the life and death of a person, but I really can't rest assured of you. Brothers really want to watch you grow up quickly, marry a wife and have children, but unfortunately we may not see it, so we can only leave you our life savings as a congratulatory money. Forgive my brothers.

If you see this note, you must leave [Xuanmu Ya] immediately, leave [Baihua], and never come back. Don't pursue the truth of the massacre anymore, this is the last piece of advice that my brothers can give you.

Live well, brothers will always love you, Xiao Teng.

There are many blessings behind this, and some are even written in a playful tone, if it weren't for the fact that many of the blessings are stained with blood behind them, it would even make people think that this is just a simple blessing letter, who would have guessed that the writer had been cornered at that time.

The bearded man couldn't stop crying, and the little fox cried when he saw it. Ling Yun sighed and looked at the note in a daze.

"Brother Xiao, didn't you find their bones?" Ling Yun asked.

"Yes...... Not even a trace was found. The bearded man wiped away his tears and said.

"Strange, no body?"

"Brother Shi. Where do we go next? The fox's big eyes were red, and the sleeves were wet with tears.

"Yes, little brother, didn't you say there is the answer to everything!?" The bearded man asked, a little excited.

"Well, you wait." Ling Yun began to search around, and after a while, he found the entrance to the basement.

"Bang!" Ling Yun removed the iron plate, and a staircase leading diagonally to the ground appeared in front of the three of them.

"This is ......." The bearded man was a little surprised, he naturally knew about the storage room under the watchtower, but would there be a final answer here?

"There's all the answers we want to know." Ling Yun said, pointing to the endless darkness underground.
