Chapter 400: Digging up the bones

"You're still worried about me here?" Chu Chengxiao asked confidently.

"I'm afraid that you won't be able to take care of it, I have the whip in the world, at least if there is any danger at that time, I can deal with it."

"Bah, what nonsense." Chu Chengxiao didn't have a good airway.

Natsuba stuck out his tongue and walked out of the inn.

"Lawyer Li, where are we going to find evidence?" Wei Rong asked after him.

Xia Ye scratched his head and said, "Since Mrs. Wei said that the old lady and young master of the Yang family were poisoned to death, then let's go to the autopsy!" ”

"Autopsy?" Chu Chengxiao couldn't believe it and said, "Ye Zi, you didn't mean it seriously, right?" ”

"Do you think I'm joking?" Xia Ye rolled his eyes and said.

"But it's a dead man's body, how can I examine it?" Chu Chengxiao asked as if he wanted to vomit.

"What are you afraid of, the Yang family has been dead for more than half a year, and the corpses have already turned into piles of white bones." After Xia Ye finished speaking, he said to Wei Rong: "Mrs. Wei, please take us to the cemetery to have a look." ”

Wei Rong nodded: "Okay, Master Li, Master Chu, you come with me." ”

Wei Rong walked in front to lead the way, Chu Chengxiao and Xia Ye followed behind, and Chu Chengxiao kept his sword in his hand all the way, vigilantly observing the surrounding situation.

After walking for a while, Wei Rong took Xia Ye and Chu Chengxiao to a forest, and then pointed to the tombstones erected by a few logs in front of him and said, "This is it." ”

Looking at the three simple small graves, Xia Ye was surprised: "This is the tomb of the Yang family?" ”

How can it be said that the Yang family is also a rich family, why are the tombstones and graves so simple?

"That's too casual, isn't it?" Chu Chengxiao asked.

Wei Rong said with a aggrieved face: "After Pang Tong occupied the Yang Mansion, he casually threw the bones of the lord, his wife and the father-in-law here, or did I have some jewelry on my body when I was driven out, and I sold those jewelry and bought three straw mats to bury them." ”

"It's so disgusting that they don't even let them die in peace." Xia Ye said hatefully.

Wei Rong sighed and said, "Whoever let the Yang Mansion be in charge now is Pang Tong, and I am already very grateful that he can leave a whole corpse for the old lady and the prime minister." ”

"Lawyer Li, are you going to dig them out now?" Wei Rong asked.

Xia Ye nodded, and then bowed to the three graves: "I didn't mean to disturb your purity today, but I really had to do it for you Zhaoxue." ”

After speaking, Xia Ye covered his mouth and nose with a piece of cloth and said, "Dig!" ”

Pulling out of their sleeves, the small shovel they carried with them, the three of them began to dig graves.

After digging for a while, Xia Ye dug out a piece of white bones, but he didn't expect that this place was often washed by rain, and these bones of the Yang family were about to be washed out of the ground, looking at the bones that were only covered by a shallow layer of soil, Xia Ye thought to himself that it would be convenient for them to dig this way.

The three of them had a pair of bones, and just when Xia Ye was seriously cleaning up the bones, he suddenly heard the sound of Chu Chengxiao drawing his sword behind him, and when he looked up, he didn't know when they were surrounded by masked people.

Xia Ye hurriedly shrank to Chu Chengxiao's side in fright, and Wei Rong also looked at the people surrounding him in fear: "Who are they?" ”

"Needless to say, they must have wanted to kill us." After Xia Ye finished speaking, he glanced at the swords of those envoys.

These people are not the black-clothed people who used to assassinate her before, because the weapons they use are different, and the weapons in the hands of these people are not Jiang Guo's.

So who are they? Xia Ye took out the whip on his waist and said to Wei Rong: "Don't be afraid, I will protect you." ”

"Give it to me! You don't stay! At the sound of the order, all the people rushed towards the three of them.

"Run away with Mrs. Wei!" After Chu Chengxiao finished speaking, he fought with those people.

Chu Chengxiao noticed that something was wrong from just now, and as a result, someone was following them.

"Don't come here, I'll whip me." Natsuha held a whip in her hand and said to a masked man who was walking towards her.

Wei Rong shrank behind Xia Ye in fear, and then followed Xia Ye step by step back.

"Don't come here, I'll really whip it!" Xia Ye scolded loudly, but seeing that the man continued to approach, Xia Ye directly waved it with a whip.

Probably the man was defenseless, so Xia Ye's whip was directly whipped in the man's face, and the man covered his face in pain, and the sword in his hand also fell.

"Run!" Xia Ye hurriedly pulled Wei Rong and ran.

The man who ate Xia Ye's whip picked up the sword on the ground in anger, and then chased after Xia Ye.

"Run, run, run..."Seeing the man behind him chasing after him, Xia Ye muttered in fright.

Wei Rong also hurriedly picked up his skirt and ran.

Originally, Xia Ye was still some distance from the man in black, but the man in black took a leap and directly shortened the distance between Xia Ye and him, and Xia Ye was even more scared with oil under her feet, but maybe she was too nervous, and she couldn't do anything with light skills.

"Ahhhhh Help me! ”

At the moment of emergency, Xia Ye still shouted to release the pressure, seeing that the man was about to catch up with her, Xia turned around and quickly waved the whip again, and this time he slightly distanced himself from the man in black.

It's just that the man in black doesn't seem to want to play a game of cat and mouse with Xia Ye anymore, and suddenly took out a dagger from his waist and aimed it at Xia Ye's figure.

"Bang."

Suddenly, a voice sounded, and the dagger in the man's hand was broken in half before it could be shot, and just when the man was still surprised, the half-broken dagger had already passed through the man's throat.

An equally masked man appeared in the same place where the man had just been, and then glanced in the direction where Natsuha had fled.

The only pair of starry eyes that leaked out of the man's eyes were deep and bottomless black, and a touch of tenderness quickly drowned in the bottom of his eyes.

"Lawyer Li, who are those people just now? Why are you chasing us? Wei Rong asked as he ran.

Xia Ye looked back behind him and found that he had already shaken off the masked man, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I don't know either." Although the masked man didn't chase after her, she suddenly thought of so many masked people surrounding them, could Chu Chengxiao handle it herself?

"Mrs. Wei, you go back to the inn first, I'll go back and have a look." After saying that, Xia Ye turned around and ran in the direction just now.

"Hey... Lawyer Lee? Wei Rong looked at Xia Ye, who had already run away, and thought to himself that he was a weak woman who didn't know martial arts, so he still listened to Li Lawyer's words and went back to the inn, so as not to trouble them again: "Li Lawyer, be careful!" After saying this, Wei Rong hurriedly ran towards the inn.

Chu Chengxiao is a general who has led the army to fight in the north, he will definitely be fine, Xia Ye prayed in his heart while running, but when Xia Ye ran to the Yang family cemetery in the woods, those masked people had long since disappeared, leaving only Chu Chengxiao who was squatting there to dig up the bones.

Xia Ye looked around, and then went over and shouted, "Chu Chengxiao? ”

Chu Chengxiao, who was digging up the bones, heard Xia Ye's voice and looked back: "Yezi? Why did you run back again? ”
