Chapter 592: Extinguishing the Mouth
"That's right! Liangzhou Jiedu envoy Qianchongshan, back then, my father-in-law also served as the chief soldier of Liangzhou! This kind of war sword is of such a high standard, it is not something that ordinary people can hold, let alone be imitated. Once it is transgressed, it will be a capital crime!" Ning Yue gently grabbed Twilight Snow's hand.
"I have never forgotten my father-in-law's case back then, even if the Xuanyin Sect is exterminated, I have always wanted to overturn the case for his old man!" However, when there is a chance to brush up on the good feeling in front of Qianduxue, Ning Yue will definitely not let it go.
"Hmm!" Twilight replied with some emotion, bowing her head slightly. Although her mother asked her not to avenge her father, and she was not keen to overturn the case for her father because she was too forgetful.
But if there is a chance to overturn the case, Twilight Snow will not turn a blind eye. No revenge does not mean that there is no hatred, and no hatred does not mean that you like it. This is also the reason why Twilight Snow does not have the slightest affection for the imperial court.
"Luo Tiancheng Gongziyu's heroic sword has always been properly kept by them, and they will definitely not take out the sword unless there is a major celebration. Mr. Situ often plays at home, but it is certain that it is not lost.
So the heroic sword in the Cretaceous Ridge...... It's not my father-in-law's, it's my mother's. However, I think that this sword should be my father-in-law's, and my mother's hero sword is likely to still be in the Tianque Palace of the Imperial Palace. β
"So...... Why is my father's Heroic Sword in Cretaceous Ridge?" Twilight's brow furrowed slightly, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
"Yes! When my father-in-law was buried in the fire of the post station, he was actually killed by someone. After more than 20 years, all the clues have disappeared with the changes of the times. If you want to overturn the case for your father-in-law, you must get ironclad evidence, otherwise it is impossible for anyone who was involved in this matter to admit the mistakes of the year.
Now they are all in high positions, so the emperor has not announced a thorough investigation of the case. But now, the ghost has found a clue. The group of people hiding in the Cretaceous Ridge is very likely to be the general of the father-in-law back then. Twilight, you go with me. β
"Okay!" Qian Duxue decisively put away the book in her hand, and suddenly looked at Ning Yue, who was a little weak, "Your injuries ......"
"Don't you know how my injuries are, the injuries are fine, it's just that I can't help my waist!" Ning Yue smiled obscenely, walked into the room, picked up the flying fish suit and draped it on her body.
The deserted Cretaceous Ridge is covered with shrubs and thorns. There were no people in a radius of ten miles outside the mountains, and the villagers who had been evacuated by the Tenshogunate did not return. There is nothing unacceptable about other places taking root, and there is no need to guard this poor mountain and bad water.
When Ning Yue and Thousand Twilight Snow fell from the clouds, Ning Yue's brows furrowed again. The chalk ridge in front of me was a little different from when I left.
Although in order to encircle and suppress the Xuanyin Sect before, they opened up more than a dozen paths into the deep forest. But compared to the wide avenue in front of you, the road that was opened up before was a country road.
The scene in front of them meant that after Ning Yue and the others left, another group of people came, and there were a lot of movements. If it weren't for the fact that the Heavenly Shogunate was busy fighting with the Xuanyin Sect, such a movement would not have been able to hide from the eyes and ears of the Heavenly Shogunate.
As if seeing the confusion in Ning Yue's eyes, Qianduxue paused slightly, "What's wrong with you?"
"I feel that something has happened in the Cretaceous Mountains! Someone has been here!" Ning Yue said, but in her heart she was suspicious of the group of deserters in the depths of the Cretaceous Mountains. Maybe the people who came behind were going for them! Ning Yue's intuition had always been very sharp, but this time, he hoped that his intuition was not working.
The two easily stepped into the depths of the Cretaceous Mountains, which was supposed to be the home of the deserters, but now, it has disappeared completely. The house was burned down and all the belongings were gone.
In the depths of the mountains, a mountain path has been carved out to the distance, with clear footprints on the ground and traces of wheels running over. There are general indications that the deserters have once again moved from home after learning that their whereabouts have been discovered.
"Are you leaving?" muttered Twilight with some disappointment. She hadn't seen her father for as long as she could remember, and her image of her father was nothing more than that portrait in her mind.
I finally found some things and clues related to my father, but now I missed it again. Qian Duxue was a little disappointed, and when she looked at Ning Yue, her eyes once again showed doubt. There was no loss in Ning Yue's eyes, but there was a thick solemnity.
"What's wrong, is there anything unusual?" asked Twilight Xue softly as she came to Ning Yue's side.
"I visited the military camp at night, and half a month ago, they resigned themselves to their intention not to leave, even if they faced the encirclement and suppression of the imperial court, they would not escape. But I didn't expect that the building would be empty for half a month.
I have faith in my martial arts cultivation, and they can't have deliberately said this to paralyze me just because they found me. And...... Twilight, don't you think...... Are the traces they left behind too obvious?"
Ning Yue pointed to the footprints on the ground and the traces of the wheels, "They are a group of deserters, if they leave, they must be to avoid the encirclement and suppression of the imperial court." If it's normal, they don't know to clean up the traces?
They used to be elite soldiers, and this awareness could not be without. And these traces are deliberately telling me that they are gone, don't send each other! Twilight, are you absolutely reasonable?"
"What does husband mean ......"
"It's not as simple as it seems! I suspect they didn't leave any traces of it. Ning Yue slowly stepped into the ruins, and the entire station had been burned to the ground, as if all the clues were not left.
Ning Yue walked through the forest and looked at the charred tree trunks around her, the suspicion in her eyes became even more solemn, "If they set a fire before leaving, although they can burn their traces, it can also turn the Chalk Ridge into a red land."
How could the fire be within a single mile of a fire in the middle of a forest? It was definitely someone who deliberately controlled the fire so that the fire did not spread. This is also one of the suspicions, if they are going to go, wouldn't it be better to burn the Cretaceous Ridge to the ground? β
"So...... Was this fire set by someone else?and the illusion that the group of people left was also deliberately left behind?" Twilight Snow is also very smart, so she figured out the trick in an instant.
"Yes, there seems to be people who don't want to keep this group alive, or that they must have some secrets. So once exposed, it immediately attracted a hunt?" Ning Yue gently walked into the middle of the ruins, and everything here turned into black scorched earth.
Ning Yue stepped lightly on the scorched earth, her eyes searching for all suspicious clues. Suddenly, Ning Yue's footsteps paused slightly, and her eyes looked at her feet suspiciously. The dirt under his feet had been thoroughly roasted, like a crump of biscuits, and it made a clattering sound when he stepped on it.
Ning Yue looked at the footprints left under her feet thoughtfully, and after a while, she gently kicked the dirt that had become fine under her feet, "Twilight Snow, this place has been turned over. In the middle of the forest, the soil is damp and cracked when it is roasted by fire, but if it is turned over, it will form this granular soil. Even after being trampled, it will still be like this under the thermal expansion and cold contraction!"
Gently retreating to the edge, Ning Yue waved her palm, and a strong momentum gushed out from her palm. A palm blasted towards the soft earth, and with a gentle wave of his hand, the soft soil instantly turned into an earth dragon and surged to the side.
A large pit appeared in front of him, and the buried filth was finally revealed to the world. At the bottom of the crater, dozens of corpses lay and died, and the death was so horrifying.
"Vomit-" Twilight turned pale in an instant, and she covered her mouth and retched. And Ning Yue's face at this moment instantly turned as white as paper. With a wave of his palm, the pit was buried again.
Ning Yue and Qian Duxue were both flowing in the bloody rain, and they had seen a lot of dead people, even dead under their swords. But...... The roasted corpse in front of them was far beyond their limits.
"They were killed and buried in this pit. Then, in order to cover up the crime, a fire was set and all traces were removed. The fire was very strong and burned for a long time. Even the corpses in the dirt were cooked......"
"Don't say it...... Vomitβ" Twilight's face changed, and her figure flashed to the edge of the tree trunk and retched.
Ning Yue's face instantly turned pale, and she gently came to Qianduxue's side and gently stroked Qianduxue's back, "It's so cruel, it's so vicious!
"Who did that, and what was their purpose?" After a long time, Twilight Snow seemed to recover a little, but her face was still pale. Even if Twilight Snow is like water, she can't stand such a terrible picture.
I don't know what people did, but what is certain is that they are killing people and killing people!" Ning Yue's eyes flashed with a sharp essence, and the murderer's heinous behavior successfully provoked Ning Yue's anger.
Suddenly, Ning Yue's footsteps suddenly stopped, and among the inconspicuous ashes in front of him, something extremely discordant appeared. Ning Yue slowly squatted down, poked her fingers lightly, and the ashes in front of her suddenly shattered like a shattered sand sculpture.
"What's wrong?" asked Twilight, curious.
"Burning to ashes doesn't mean you can destroy everything. Just like this piece of bamboo, although it was burned to ashes, the shape of the ashes still retains its original appearance. Ning Yue stood up gently and clapped her hands.
"It's just a piece of bamboo...... "Twilight feels like her brain is running out of her head. Of course, she could see that the ashes in front of her were made of bamboo, but what could this mean?
"If you look at the surroundings, can there be bamboo here? Not to mention here, there is definitely not a single bamboo within a radius of fifty miles. Where did the bamboo come from? Obviously it was brought by the mastermind behind the scenes!" Ning Yue breathed a sigh of relief lightly, looked around and said lightly.
