Along the way, Shi Qingxue felt that her heart was beating faster, and she always had a bad premonition.

However, when I saw the corpses all over the ground, the shock in my heart was still incomprehensible.

Damn it!

It's, it's so bloody!

Shi Qingxue covered her mouth and pressed back the nausea.

But Tie Qing's face still revealed her fragility at this time.

But even so, Shi Qingxue still didn't close her eyes, but stared at those corpses.

It was Mo Junyang's big hand that covered her eyelids.

The man's low, gentle voice rang in her ears, "Don't look. ”

This comfort went straight to the bottom of Shi Qingxue's heart.

She wasn't that fragile at first, but now she was shaking uncontrollably.

The petite body couldn't help but lean back and fell into Mo Junyang's broad and thick embrace.

Warm and safe.

Mo Junyang accepted it completely, hugged Shi Qingxue tightly, and comforted her as much as possible.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Qu Yuexuan and the others were also taken aback by this bloody scene, and when they saw the loving scene of the lovers, they couldn't even complain.

They all stood with their faces blue, and a silent depression spread around.

In the end, it was Qu Yuexuan who acted first.

There was no need for Mo Junyang's orders, so he directly ordered: "The first team will investigate the surroundings, and the second team will inspect the corpse to see the suspicious items after death." The rest are on alert. ”

"Order!"

Everyone acted quickly, but at this time, no one was as excited as when they first went out, and their faces were full of ugly looks.

Qu Yuexuan's group of personnel are indeed elite, and they will complete the scene investigation at once, summarize it to Qu Yuexuan, and then report it to him.

However, Qu Yuexuan had already lost his initial pride and enthusiasm, and his whole person wilted.

"According to our people's surveys, there have been at least five or six fights here," he said. The indentations of the road carriage and the sword scratches on the stones, although they have been treated, are still traceable. ”

"What about in the woods?" Mo Junyang asked calmly.

"The situation in the woods is similar to what I had previously thought, it is indeed a good place for ambush, and there are signs of grass and trees being trampled. A rough estimate suggests that there were probably forty or fifty people who had been ambushed there. ”

Mo Junyang nodded, moved his gaze to the corpses that had been packed up and placed on the official road, and asked, "What's the situation with the corpse?" ”

"All of them were killed after a fight. I examined their wounds, and most of them were wounded with swords or knives, and most of them were killed with one or two stabs, which shows that the difference in strength between the two sides is so great that it can almost be regarded as a one-sided massacre.

And judging from the performance characteristics of the corpses and the bloodiness of the scene, these people should have been killed from last night to early this morning, and the scene has not been cleaned up.

If it weren't for the fact that I was sure that our whereabouts had not been revealed, I would have thought that someone had deliberately left such a tragic scene for us to see. ”

Mo Junyang glanced at Qu Yuexuan and asked lightly: "How do you know that this is not for us to see?" ”

"Huh?" Qu Yuexuan was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously retorted: "There must be no inner ghost among us!" Don't worry about the people I raised! ”

"I didn't say there was an inner ghost."

"And how did they know we were coming at this time?"

Mo Junyang: "They don't need to know when we will arrive, as long as they kill people and leave the scene before we come." We'll see. ”

Qu Yuexuan still felt incredible, but when she opened her mouth, she couldn't think of anything else.

Mo Junyang asked again: "Who are the people who died?" ”

Qu Yuexuan replied honestly: "Judging from the costumes, they are a bit like hunters in the mountains, but according to my observation, these people are more like ......."

He hesitated for a moment before he said, "It's more like a mountain bandit." ”

"What?!"

Shi Qingxue shouted in surprise, not being afraid, pulling down Mo Junyang's hand and glaring at Qu Yuexuan.

Qu Yuexuan nodded and explained, "I have examined the old injuries on their bodies, it is absolutely impossible that they were caused by hunting, but it seems to come out of the blood licked by the knife." And the death toll is exactly forty and five. ”

It roughly matches the number of people who had been ambushed in the woods earlier.

Could this be a coincidence?

But those present were unbelieving.

Shi Qingxue pursed her lips, glanced at the group of corpses, and hurriedly moved away.

She looked up at Mo Junyang and asked, "What do you think now?" ”

Mo Junyang shook his head and instructed Qu Yuexuan, "Carefully inspect some of those corpses, especially their physical characteristics." Let's see if we can find any more clues. ”

Qu Yuexuan was stunned.

Mo Junyang would ask this, he must have found something unusual.

Although Qu Yuexuan knew that Mo Junyang had never said anything about it, the other party's words were so vague......

Qu Yuexuan looked at Mo Junyang helplessly, and sighed: "Ah Yang, what did you find, you have to give me a direction, so I can follow this direction to investigate!" ”

"I doubt ......"

Mo Junyang's expression was solemn, and he seemed to have thought carefully before he said slowly: "They are from the army. ”

"What?"

"What?"

The people around them all glared at Mo Junyang in shock.

But today everyone was frightened too much, and after the shock, everyone quickly accepted the statement.

Qu Yuexuan even showed a look of sudden realization, and muttered to herself in a low voice: "No wonder! I'll just say why I always feel like something is wrong.

At first, the main reason why I judged them to be bandits was their clothing and the old wounds on their bodies, but at the same time I was strange. If they are really 'mountain bandits', their quality will be too good. Whether in terms of height and physical characteristics, or from the calluses on their hands, this group of 'mountain bandits' has undergone long-term and formal training. It is simply impossible for ordinary mountain bandits to reach such a level.

Before that, I thought that these 'mountain bandits' were really coming for the government, so they selected a group of elites.

Now that you say so, these suspicions make sense! I was blinded by their costumes before I suspected that these well-trained people were mountain bandits.

I think they are simply soldiers trained in the barracks! ”

Qu Yuexuan came to a conclusion that shocked even himself.

He looked at Mo Junyang in disbelief, and asked, "But why?" Why are so many soldiers dying here.

Why are they here? And who killed them? ”

One after another, doubts came with the appearance of these corpses.

They came to decrypt it, but until now, it was clear that this was probably the previous ten silver robbery cases found outside the scene, and nothing was found.

The mystery is getting bigger and bigger.

Wei Zichao watched as the sky gradually darkened and the sun had set on the other side of the mountain, so he asked, "Master, should we set up camp here, or should we go back to the valley before?" ”

As soon as she heard that she was going to camp in the pile of dead, Shi Qingxue shivered uncontrollably.

Mo Junyang hugged her tighter, and said quietly: "You stay here to guard the scene, and I will take Qingxue to take a look elsewhere." ”

"But it's so unsafe!" Wei Zichao said disapprovingly.

These men have been dead for less than twelve hours, and God knows if they will be waiting for them somewhere.

No matter how high Mo Junyang's ability is, with Shi Qingxue, it is really not a wise choice to defeat four feet with two fists.

Qu Yuexuan also echoed: "Indeed. I can lead half of the people to stay and watch the scene, that's enough. The rest of you will walk around with you, pick a suitable place to rest for the night, and talk about everything tomorrow. ”

Their words were very tactful and polite, but Shi Qingxue still heard it.

They discovered her fear, and in order to take care of her emotions, they decided to divide two groups of people into two places to rest.

Even if it meant doubling the danger, no one complained, and even took the initiative to find a reason for her.

Shi Qingxue's nose was a little sour, and she was so moved in her heart.

But she couldn't accept their arrangement with peace of mind anyway.

Qingxue swallowed hard and suppressed all her fears.

Grabbing Mo Junyang's sleeve, she broke free from Mo Junyang's arms, and tried to say in a calm tone: "I'm fine, let's camp here!" ”

Mo Junyang held her hand and was about to say something.

Shi Qingxue had already shook her head and said frankly: "I'm not wrong to be afraid, I'm afraid to death." But I can't put your subordinates in danger because of my fears.

We all know that this scene is probably deliberately shown to us by the murderer, and it is very likely that the murderer is waiting for us somewhere nearby.

If we let up, we will be killed. And it's unrealistic to let everyone leave together, so let's stay together! ”

Qu Yuexuan had always known that Shi Qingxue, a woman, would surprise him, and he was willing to admit this hostess.

But to this day, Shi Qingxue still surprises him.

Obviously, the little face was so frightened that it was bloodless, but he could still stand up and say that he wanted to advance and retreat with them.

This courage alone made Qu Yuexuan admire.

But......

Qu Yuexuan secretly glanced at Mo Junyang, and secretly guessed that his master was willing to let Shi Qingxue suffer this crime?

Not only him, Wei Zichao and Wei Ziye both looked at Mo Junyang, waiting for his decision.

Before Mo Junyang could speak, he was held by Shi Qingxue again.

She pulled him aside, lowered her voice, and said softly, almost coquettishly: "Jun Yang, as long as you are here, I will not be afraid." Let's stay together, wait, you hold me, it's okay......"

The last sentence is as thin as a mosquito.

But Mo Junyang heard it clearly.

The man's deep gaze stared at Shi Qingxue, looking at her delicate face, as if he had finally determined something.

Only then did he nod slowly and announced to the rest: "Set up camp." ”

Soon, several tents were set up at the bend of the official road, and the fire was raised.

However, at this time, probably no one was in the mood to rest, and sat down around the fire, all with solemn expressions on their faces.

What will happen tonight?
