Chapter 419: The Lost Wooden Plaque

() County Yazhong.

The scene was restored in the mouth of the soldiers, and Gu Ziyuan lowered his eyes and groaned.

Listening to his description, that group of people was not the ordinary robbers they had encountered before, at least ordinary robbers would not and would not dare to make them look like this.

If it weren't for a few of them pretending to be dead, I'm afraid they would not have escaped death. Thinking back to the scene at that time, Gu Ziyuan clearly knew that they cooperated tacitly, and they were probably specially trained subordinates loyal to someone.

Moreover, what makes people's hearts chill is that those dead officers and soldiers were all wiped on their throats with a knife, and they lost their lives before they could scream.

The soldier swallowed his saliva, looking at Gu Ziyuan's quiet thinking, he didn't dare to disturb.

Gu Ziyuan sighed, it happened suddenly, and it was already a blessing in misfortune that there were still people left. He didn't expect that someone would really dare to rob openly, and kill people and goods neatly.

He looked at the soldier in front of him: "What do you remember, can you be more detailed?" ”

His voice was gentle, soothing, making the soldiers less nervous. The soldier tried to recall it a little longer, but there was no other memory.

He closed his eyes when he faked his death, and the exact circumstances are probably only known to the dead. I have no choice but to say,

"They're very good and we don't have any power to parry. It's like they've been specially trained to kill people, and they're beautiful. The soldiers looked at Gu Ziyuan with palpitations, and when they recalled the details of the scene at that time, they couldn't help but shudder.

It can almost be regarded as a scene of corpses strewn all over the field, and it can be regarded as a nightmare. The soldiers' hands and feet were cold, and their hearts were filled with a sense of luck for the rest of their lives.

But the thought of his brother who was under the same roof dying in front of him was a great fate, and he also had a wave of anger flowing in his heart.

The soldier clenched his fists, he also wanted to avenge his brother, but he knew better that there was a huge difference in their strength, and instead of dying on the spot, it was better to ask Gu Ziyuan for help.

"Beautiful?" Gu Ziyuan raised his eyebrows, unable to understand why this word of praise suddenly appeared at this time.

The soldier nodded: "That's right, they seem to have done these things many times, and the whole massacre didn't last long. He pondered for a long time before he said the word slaughter, because it was the only word that could represent the strength of those killers.

Gu Ziyuan nodded: "I know, you go down first, this matter should be investigated clearly." He paused and said, "By the way, a few of you who survive should rest for a few days first, and the rest of the order will be dealt with." ”

The soldier nodded, breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly left, and he had to hurry back to report his family's safety if he was lucky enough to survive.

Looking at the back of the soldiers leaving in a hurry, Gu Ziyuan frowned. Is it well trained? He rubbed his fingers lightly on his temples, and a guess rose in his heart, but there was not enough evidence to confirm it, and he couldn't make a judgment.

But the direction of things was indeed according to his conjecture, Gu Ziyuan took a deep breath and closed his eyes helplessly.

The moonlight was just right, Gu Ziyuan was sitting in the courtyard with a fan, and the insects were chirping. Seeing his casual appearance, Bai Rong pursed his lips and said, "Ziyuan, that wooden sign?" ”

"I was just thinking, don't worry." Gu Ziyuan raised his eyes to look at her soothingly, "I look very familiar with that wooden sign, as if I have seen it somewhere." ”

Bai Rong's eyes flashed, she sat down next to Gu Ziyuan, took it out of her cuffs and put it in front of her.

"Look at the symbols on this." She pointed to the pattern, "I always feel like I've seen it somewhere, but I don't think there's such a wooden sign." ”

When Gu Ziyuan heard this, he stretched out his hand to take it in front of his eyes and took a closer look, a strange pattern was drawn on the dark red wooden sign, and the outlined lines really made him feel familiar.

He pinched his eyebrows and slowly recalled, and after a moment he whispered, "The people who assassinated us before also had this pattern. ”

He raised his head and looked at Bai Rong fixedly: "Do you remember what happened to us before?" ”

At that time, after Gu Ziyuan's identity was known, they began to deal with all kinds of assassinations and open assassinations, no matter which side of the force came to get involved.

Some are to let him close his eyes forever as the son of the first emperor, and some are to show favor to one party.

If he was just a wild prince, it would be fine, but the identity of the first emperor's concubine was enough to attract the attention of all ambitious people.

After all, Gu Ziyuan is now a thorn in the heart of some people, if he doesn't disappear for a day, their plans will always be flawed, and it is even very likely that they will lose everything because of Gu Ziyuan.

Bai Rong nodded and thought for a moment: "At that time, that group of people had tattoos on their bodies. You mean, it's the same as the tattoos of those people? ”

Listening to Gu Ziyuan's analysis, she also felt that there was some truth, and her memories gradually became clearer, and she had the impression that there were similar patterns on those dead soldiers.

Gu Ziyuan nodded, thinking that they were both in a situation now, and both of them looked a little unsightly. A thought quickly flashed through Gu Ziyuan's mind, and he almost missed it.

"At that time, there were only a few people who knew that I was the concubine of the first emperor, and what we determined at that time was that it was a certain prince who killed me, and his subordinates had that pattern, can it be said that that group of people were other princes?"

Gu Ziyuan slowly said his thoughts, although it was a little palpitating, but it was in line with common sense.

Hearing this, Bai Rong was stunned, she bit her lip, the development of things was indeed a little unexpected to her, but it was expected.

Gu Ziyuan's identity was originally unusual, and if someone knew about it, someone would want to kill him. But then again, even if it is death, you must die clearly to know who did it.

It was not easy for them to find out a prince, and now someone has come to mix in it, and the already muddy situation is now even more difficult for them to see.

"Put this wooden sign away, I always think it will be useful." The two were silent for a while before Gu Ziyuan spoke, and he had an inexplicable premonition in his heart that something would happen soon.

Since none of the killers died, they will find that their wooden cards are lost, and they will definitely come back to look for them.

Bai Rong also thought of this floor, she answered, took the wooden sign back to the room and threw it into the dark compartment, but her heart was heavy as if she had pressed a stone.

Gu Ziyuan's guess was right, this group of people is indeed a prince, it is none other than Gu Zongtang.

The treasures in the treasury were reflected by the candlelight, and Gu Zongtang looked at the things in front of him and smiled.

The dark guard kept carrying large boxes into the door, each box made a dull sound after it was thrown to the ground, Gu Zongtang stepped forward and opened it one by one, and a greedy smile expanded on his face.

The whole room was filled with white flowers of silver, like countless stars in the sky. People die for money, let alone such a large amount of money in front of them, and the dead will not be moved.

Gu Zongtang stretched out his hand and picked up the silver pieces that flashed to his eyes, and brought them to his ear to collide, and when he heard the sound, he laughed.
