The black-robed man's eyes flashed, and he said coldly: "Let people pour oil and burn this mountain." Even if Xiao Yao's body was hiding in that corner, he would be wiped out. ”

"What about the master?"

The black-robed man turned his head, looked at Baojing Mountain again, and sneered: "Maybe the corpse fell in some corner, and when the time comes, tell the master that the corpse has been burned." ”

There was a lot of dead grass on the mountain, and the black-robed man retreated to the foot of the mountain and ordered a fire. Soon, the entire Baojing Mountain became a sea of fire, and thick smoke billowed up.

Gu Dian took people and was still looking for them on the periphery, but when he saw that there was a fire on this mountain and thick smoke to guide the way, he hurriedly led people to this side.

When Gu Dian took people and rushed to the foot of Baojing Mountain, the entire Baojing Mountain was already burned bare.

"Don't know who set the fire here, there wasn't much grass and trees on this mountain, but now it looks like the whole mountain is gone."

Gu Dian was silent and asked, "Are you sure that there were not many plants and trees on this mountain, not enough for Tibetans?" ”

"Yes, there are few mountains on this grassland. Although this Baojing Mountain is still quite high, there have been no big trees on the mountain. Grass in general, up to our knees. ”

I heard that the bushes and grass are up to knees, so it is impossible to hide people, it seems that Xiao Yao is not here.

Gu Dian took people and followed this road again and rushed back to yesterday's battlefield. When they saw the corpses of the Great Zhou soldiers, they wrapped them up and put them on horseback.

From the battlefield left behind, as well as the various mutilated corpses of the soldiers, it can also be seen that yesterday's battle was quite tragic.

Everyone scattered and went around to collect the corpses, Gu Dian looked at this scene, and his heart was also very solemn.

A good man may be the pillar of a family, or he may be a person in a deep dream. There are many people who look forward to him, but he stays in this meadow forever.

Suddenly, an exclamation came from the front: "Donkey, come and see, this is Lord Lu." ”

Gu Dian hurriedly stepped forward, and when he got to the front, he jumped off the horse and stretched out his head to take a look, and sure enough, it was Lu Fei beside Xiao Yao. I saw an arrow in his vest and multiple wounds on his body.

It seems that he fell from his horse after being hit by an arrow, and was trampled to death by the rebels.

Gu Dian pulled out the long arrow on Lu Fei's body and looked at it carefully. The arrow is fired from behind, which means that the person who shoots the arrow is behind him, and it is likely that it is from his own team.

Looking at the regulation of the arrow, it also belongs to the Great Zhou, and with the narration of the living soldiers, Gu Dian is basically sure.

Lu Fei should have blocked an arrow for Xiao Yao, and it was an arrow shot from the back from the bow of the Great Zhou soldiers. Then Xiao Yao must have stayed here, but where did Xiao Yao go after that?

Gu Dian silently calculated the geographical location of this place in his heart. put yourself in Xiao Yao's environment at that time, how would you choose?

The front is the Liao army, and there is a fine work in the back, to the west is a grassland, and to the east is the Baojing Mountain that I have just visited.

Gu Dian closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then looked in the direction of Baojing Mountain again.

"Let's go, let's go to Baojing Mountain again."

When Gu Dian and the others came to Baojing Mountain again, the fire on the mountain had basically been extinguished.

Except for the ground and rocks, there are some hot ones, and the rest can only be seen as the residue of the grass and trees burned into black ash. A gust of wind blew vigorously, rolling up clouds of black ash and circling in the sky.

Gu Dian was in mourning, he was basically sure that Xiao Yao was hunted down and killed at that time, and the last person to come was Baojing Mountain.

Because on the grassland, when the enemy is strong and I am weak, if you are besieged by someone single-handedly, it will be useless for you to use your martial arts to cover the world.

So Xiao Yao will definitely not go west, he will definitely come to Baojing Mountain. When the time comes, with the help of the mountain of Baojing Mountain, I will hide for a while, hoping to delay time and wait for the help of the army.

Who knew that Yang Chi and Zhang Huai only cared about chasing and killing the remnants on both wings, and they didn't think about coming back to rescue at all.

Or they have long seen through the layout of the Liao, and did not chase the defeated Liao, but just got someone's order and deliberately did not rescue.

Gu Dian swore in his heart that if Xiao Yao really had an accident this time, then everyone would not be able to escape.

Yang Chi and Zhang Huai still thought that after Xiao Yao's death, they would take over the Yumen Pass, it was a dream! When pigs fly!

"Everyone scattered around and looked around. Fifty of you, come with me up the mountain and have a look! ”

The mountain was not too high, and Gu Dian quickly walked to the mountainside, where there was a man-long stone horizontally. He looked around and continued to walk up.

When he was about to reach the top of the mountain, the people in front of him made a discovery and exclaimed: "Gu Yuma, come and see, there are a lot of corpses here!" ”

Gu Dian hurriedly stepped forward and hastily counted them. From here to the top of the mountain, only about a foot away, there were twenty-eight corpses.

It's just that after the mountain fire, I can't see the clothes and appearance, and I can only roughly see the size of the skeleton.

"Look carefully and see if you can find the weapon Xiao Yao used. Or something else that can prove Xiao Yao's identity. ”

The scout brought by Gu Dian carefully inspected it, and replied: "Return to the horse." The subordinates had already carefully examined it, and the twenty-eight corpses could be put together. The Generalissimo should not be among them. ”

"Are you sure?"

The scout thought for a moment and said, "The subordinates can be sure!" Because there have long been rumors among the Liao people that those who can kill the generalissimo will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold. So if they kill the marshal, they will definitely take the marshal's head away. ”

Gu Dian felt that what he said made sense.

If Xiao Yao died, the Liao people would definitely notify the world first, so as to hit the morale of the Great Zhou soldiers. In the past, there was no shortage of Liao people, and the generals on our side cut off their heads and hung them on the flagpole.

"Then you mean that there will be no marshal among these twenty-eight. And most likely, it was the marshal who killed these people? ”

"Yes, these things should have been killed by the marshal."

The scout raised a severed arm and shook the flesh off it, revealing visible knife marks on the bones.

"Horse, I have found out that these twenty-eight corpses were all killed by the same sharp weapon. The marshal's cold quenching knife sharpened iron like clay, and it was possible to cut such a smooth wound on the bone. ”

Gu Dian was silent, his heart split into two halves.

Half told him that this should be the last place Xiao Yao stayed last night. He was dead, and his body had been taken away.

Half told him that since so many people besieged Xiao Yao, they were all killed by Xiao Yao. Could it be that Xiao Yao killed the pursuers, set fire to the mountain himself, and then left?

Also, Xiao Yao is wearing a golden silk soft hedgehog armor to protect all the vital points on his body, which can have some effect.

Of course, Gu Dian hoped that Xiao Yao was still alive, but this hope was too slim. However, as long as Xiao Yao's body is not found for a day, then Xiao Yao may still be alive.

"Let's look carefully and see if we can find anything?"
