Chapter 108: What's so nice about a dead man
On this hill, Wu Xiaochen and the others did not stay for too long, only half an hour later, the five of them had already left.
And just when Wu Xiaochen was about to take the three law enforcement elders to start the "Three-day Tour of Tianxue Plain", Nangong and the others on the other side had already advanced towards Tianxue City along the northwest edge of the junction between Tianxue Plain and the northern end of the Rongtianling Mountain Range.
However, it didn't take long for them to discover something very strange.
At this time, everyone was walking on a low mountainside, and Liang Zi, who was walking in the front, suddenly pointed to a certain place under the mountain and shouted: "Nangong, look there!"
Nangong looked at her fingertips, in fact, he had already seen it, it was a military camp.
A simple military camp converted from a dozen or so large tents of the original nomadic tribes in Tianxueyuan, surrounded by a wooden fence outside, like a simple cottage, and at the entrance of the barracks, there is also a high guard tower.
Of course, this is not the point, the point is that today this barracks is empty.
All the people inside are dead.
Condescendingly, everyone had a full view of the situation in the barracks, all of them were horizontal, and the corpses fell to the ground, and the death was extremely miserable, Nangong stared at it for a while, and found that there were very few of them with all the corpses, most of them were cut in two, or cut off at the waist, or broken from it, and the technique was extremely bloody and cruel.
"This is the ...... It's a little familiar......" Nangong said secretly.
He thought about it for a while and decided to go down to verify it, so he said, "Everyone wait here first, and I'll go down and have a look." ”
"It's all dead people, what's there to see?" said Kurochi suddenly frowned, her face was a little unsightly at this time.
The reason why she frowned, of course, was not because it was her former subordinates who died in this military camp now, because this girl had already spilled blood to destroy the alliance and declared that she had nothing to do with the Wolf Tooth Army.
She frowned, just felt. It's not worth the time spent on the dead.
So much for.
Nangong pondered for a while, and then said truthfully: "I just see that the killing method is a little familiar, it is very likely that Mr. Murong did it, and I want to go down and confirm it." ”
"You mean...... Murong chasing the wind?" Heichi was slightly stunned.
"Hmm. ”
Nangong nodded and said, "If it's really him, then Wu Xiaochen and Brother Wu should also be nearby." That way, we can join them first. From yesterday to now, I haven't been able to contact them, and I don't know what trouble he has encountered. ”
"Then I'll go with you. Blackpool thought for a moment and said.
This time. But it was Nangong's turn to frown, he looked at the girl in black suspiciously, and said, "It's all dead people, what's there to see?"
In his opinion, it was just a pile of dead people, and the girl of Blackpool ...... Although she calls herself "grandma" all day long, in the end, she is still a seventeen-year-old girl after all, and she should not be interested in the pile of dead people.
It's just that...... When he was thinking so much about Blackpool. But he forgot one thing: he himself was only a fourteen-year-old boy.
Blackpool shook his head and didn't answer.
"It should be because of Mr. Murong......" Nangong secretly guessed.
Thinking of the gap in the attitude of this girl before and after, he only thought of this possibility.
However, at this time, the girl in black had already stepped into the air. Just jumped in the air and swaggered to the barracks at the bottom of the mountain.
Nangong had no choice but to turn around and say, "Then you wait for me here first, and I'll come when I go." ”
"Be careful, then. Liang Zi admonished.
"I got it!"
Nangong responded. And he went down the hill with him.
The barracks was not far from where everyone was, and it was built on a hill, about two miles or so. Nangong doesn't have the ability to walk through the air like Heichi, he runs all the way.
And when he went outside the barracks, the girl in black had already disappeared.
"Miss Blackpool!" Nangong shouted twice, but did not hear any response.
Nangong's heart tightened, and with two fingers, he condensed an ice sword, held it in his hand, and kicked across the half-fallen gate of the village and walked into the barracks.
What I saw on the mountain just now was not real, but now that I got closer, Nangong found that the situation in this military camp was much more tragic than he imagined.
I saw that this place was like a slaughterhouse, the ground was full of minced meat, mixed with blackened blood, and a thick bloody breath came to the nose, which made people smell sick.
Not even a single corpse is complete, missing arms and legs are considered good, and Nangong even saw a lump of flesh in the shape of a human, as if it had been smashed into the ground by a huge hammer.
"Blackpool girl, Blackpool girl!" Nangong covered his nose and shouted twice.
"I'm in the big tent in front. ”
This time, Blackpool finally responded.
Stepping on the broken corpse, Nangong Xunsheng walked into a big tent, but saw that the girl in black was walking around, as if she was looking at something.
"What's the situation?" asked Nangong as he stepped forward.
"See for yourself. ”
The girl in black didn't raise her head in reply, and as she spoke, she walked to another place, seriously fiddling with a corpse with a broken leg.
As on the outside, the tent was also full of corpses, seven or eight, but the difference was that at least the corpses were intact.
In fact, it is only relative to the minced meat outside, and these corpses are not very complete.
Nangong looked at it for a while, but he couldn't see a reason, he just confirmed one thing: these were corpses, and then it was ...... And then there was no then.
So I had to look at the girl in black, hoping that she could give an answer.
After a while, Heichi stood up, took out a handkerchief, wiped his hands, and said, "These corpses...... It is indeed Murong Chasing's technique!"
"How can you see that?" asked Nangong.
"I recognize this as a wound from the Giant Sword. Blackpool explained, and then said a little gloomily: "Speaking of which...... Murong Chased's giant sword was still given to him by me......"
“...... I see. ”
Nangong suddenly realized, he didn't expect that Murong Chasing the Wind's Juque Sword would have such a background.
After thinking for a moment, he looked at the wounds of the corpses again, trying to see something different.
He could only deduce from the death of those corpses that it might be Murong Chaifeng's doing, but he really couldn't see any characteristics of the wound on the giant sword.
This is a matter of experience, not wisdom.
Then. Heichi threw away the handkerchief and said, "Actually, to be precise, most of the people here were killed by Murong Chasing the wind, at least, those outside are." ”
"Most of them, you mean there are others?" asked Nangong.
"Hmm...... You come with me first. Kuroike nodded, and then walked out, only to turn around, and she walked into another large tent not far away.
Nangong followed and walked in, and found that there were also corpses here, also about seven or eight.
The difference is. This time, I finally saw the complete corpse, but the horror of its death was not bad, they all bled to death through seven holes, and their faces still retained the expressions before death.
But these expressions are very ...... Uncanny!
Because they still have a shallow smile on their faces, they are as peaceful as if they are euthanized in their sleep.
"These people ......," Kuroike said, pointing to the corpses on the ground, "they were all shocked to death by powerful sound waves, don't look at their surface integrity." In fact, the internal organs have already been completely broken. If you don't believe me, you can take a look at it. ”
"No need......" Nangong couldn't help but turn a little pale and shook his head.
He doesn't have a penchant for corpse abuse.
"I came early just now, and I've already seen it. the people who are in the big tent. Another way to die, if I'm not mistaken, would have died under the scimitar. Blackpool stood in the doorway, pointing to another big tent.
"Machete...... Sound wave...... Juque ......"
Nangong had no intention of going to find out. After a little calculation in his heart, he said: "So, the people of this barracks. It should have been Mr. Murong and Brother Wu who killed the five of them together. ”
"No, you may have guessed wrong. Heichi suddenly shook his head and said, negating Nangong's guess.
Nangong asked in surprise: "Why do you say that? You just said scimitar and sound wave, as far as I know, Qianyin's Seven Emotions and Seven Injuries Spectrum and Sasha's scimitar are exactly in line with these two points, and Mr. Murong's Juque Sword, who else is there besides them?"
"I don't know the five demons you mentioned, but I can be sure that the ones who use scimitars and sound waves will definitely not be your friends. At this time, the black pool was extremely calm.
Nangong was even more puzzled, so he had to ask again, "Why?"
"Didn't you see it when you came in just now?" Kuroike asked with a strange look at him.
"Excuse me...... What should I see?"
“...... You come with me!" Blackpool said again, and then walked out again.
She took Nangong to the gate of the village, then pointed to a certain place on the ground and said, "Look there." ”
Nangong looked in the direction she was pointing, but only saw a severed hand.
The severed hand was pressed under a corpse, only half exposed, and he was a little nervous when he came in just now, worried that something had happened to the black pool, so he really didn't pay attention.
After a closer look, Nangong immediately discovered the strangeness of this severed hand.
Not only is it different from ordinary people, but it also has a strange turquoise color, and it is obvious that this is the severed hand of a poisonous corpse, but it is just ......
"Where do you seem to have seen this hand?" Nangong felt more familiar the more he looked at it, so he couldn't help but pull out the severed hand and look at it carefully, suddenly his heart was shocked, and he couldn't help but exclaim: "This is Mr. Murong's hand!"
"That's right...... This hand is Murong Chasei's hand. ”
Heichi nodded and said lightly: "When Su Manman was refining Murong Chasing the Wind back then, I had been secretly paying attention. So, I recognized his hand at a glance. But I don't think you would guess that this hand was actually cut off by a scimitar. It's also worth mentioning that there are only three wounds here, the Giant, the Sonic Wave, and the Scimitar.
"That's why I said that the person who wielded the scimitar shouldn't be your friend......" Blackpool's final conclusion went back to the question just now.
"What?!
Hearing this, Nangong's hand shook and he almost threw out the severed hand he was holding. He looked at the black pool with wide eyes and said incredulously, "You...... You're not kidding, are you?"
Blackpool just glared at him, and didn't say anything, but the look in his eyes seemed to say: Do you think I'm joking?
Nangong: "......"
Looking at her eyes, he finally confirmed: the girl in black in front of him was serious, she was really not joking.
But at this moment. Nangong Ning would rather believe that she was joking.
Because the answer is just too incredible.
"This ...... What the hell is going on?"
The shocking fact made Nangong unable to react for a while.
Heichi spread his hands, but said a sentence that Ye Jianzang often said: "You ask me, who do I ask?" After a pause, she said again: "I'm just telling you what I saw, as for exploring the reason, that's what you should do as a military advisor, right, Nangong military advisor?"
As she spoke, she also patted Nangong on the shoulder. With a "I'm optimistic about you" expression, he said, "You think about it slowly, I'll go up first." You're right, it's all dead here, and there's really nothing to see. ”
With that, she got up and went back to the mountain.
And looking at the minced meat and corpses all over the ground, Nangong didn't pay attention for a while, and thought about it for a while, but he didn't come up with a reason. In desperation, I had no choice but to leave.
Indeed...... It's all dead, there's nothing to see, and staying for a long time will only disturb your thoughts.
While walking. Nangong combed through what Heichi had said.
Now, no matter how unbelievable he may be, the facts before him are, number one. Murong Chasing Feng had come here, and he had killed everyone in the barracks, as well as wolves and poisonous corpses, and second, he didn't come alone. He was joined by two other men, one who wielded a scimitar and the other who could use sound waves. The three of them joined forces to destroy the barracks, and third, those two people were friends and foes, because they cut off one of Murong Chaifeng's hands.
The above three points are all that Nangong saw in this military camp.
He originally thought that it was Murong Chasing Wind and the Five Demons who had come here and destroyed this military camp, but now, what Heichi said overturned his guess.
So the question is: who are those two people?
In fact, Murong Chasing Wind would appear here, which is easy to explain, because the route designed by Nangong for the six of them would indeed pass through here, and destroying this military camp was also part of the plan.
But the second and third points are what Nangong can't figure out.
Those two people of unknown origin, since they will join forces with Murong Chasing Feng to destroy the military camp of the Wolf Tooth Army, it means that they are the enemies of the Wolf Tooth Army.
But since they are enemies, then why are they enemies of Murong Chasing the Wind?
"Could it be that Mr. Murong provoked some hidden master?" Nangong secretly guessed.
It's not surprising that he would think like this, the world is so big, and there are masters everywhere. Even the aunt who sells tofu in the northwest dragon city of her hometown, Nangong suspects that she is very likely to be a peerless master who is hidden in the city.
Because it is impossible for ordinary women to have a height of six feet and a waist circumference of six feet......
But in the next moment, Nangong overturned his guess again: "Impossible! Although Mr. Murong is a poisonous corpse, he is from a famous family after all...... Logically speaking, you will never offend people for no reason...... That's right!
With a flash of inspiration, Nangong thought of a very crucial place: Murong Chasing Feng was also a poisonous corpse! He was still the kind of high-level poisonous corpse closest to a super poisonous corpse!
Thinking of this, Nangong's thoughts opened up.
First of all, cough ...... Hidden master or something, the odds are too small, don't bother with it for now. Today's Datang people will regard poisonous corpses as enemies.
Secondly, of those two men, one is good at using scimitars, and the other is good at using sonic waves...... Scimitar, Sonic Wave, how similar this is to Sasha and Chiyin in the Five Demons.
Is this just a coincidence?
I'm afraid it may not be!
After connecting all kinds of seemingly intermittent clues one by one, the identities of the two people who injured Murong Chasing the Wind were already about to be revealed.
However, after guessing the identities of those two people, Nangong couldn't help but smile bitterly: "It turned out to be them...... This is a misunderstanding...... It's a bit big......"
Nangong couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh.
At this time, two calls suddenly came from the front, "Nangong!
Nangong suddenly came back to his senses, only to realize that he had unconsciously returned to the mountainside just now. Liang Zi muttered, "What do you think, so distracted? I didn't respond to you several times." ”
"Oh, it's nothing...... Just thinking about some of the things I saw in the barracks......" Nangong replied casually.
"I've already told them about the barracks. Blackpool suddenly said something and asked, "Have you thought of something?" Who do you think those two people would be?"
"Got a little bit of a clue......"
Nangong raised his head and suddenly said to everyone, "Everyone...... Our itinerary may have to change a bit, and we can't continue north. ”
"Why?" Ye Jianzang asked.
Everyone nodded their heads, indicating that they all had the same question.
Nangong smiled and didn't answer, smiled bitterly, but asked rhetorically: "Do you remember that call yesterday?"
Everyone nodded in unison when they heard this, and shook their heads in unison, indicating that they didn't know why he asked.
Ye Jianzang said directly: "Yesterday, Wu Xiaochen said in the telegraph that he encountered something, and told us not to want anything first...... But do you know what he's talking about, what the hell is it?"
“......”
This paragraph was like a tongue twister, and it almost didn't wrap Nangong in.
He thought about it for a while before he understood what the eldest young master meant, so he couldn't help but smile bitterly again.
After telling his speculation, Nangong explained to everyone: "Combined with what I saw in the barracks just now, I think...... Brother Wu, what he wanted to say was actually ...... He ran into some trouble and told us not to go to the Tianshan Mountains yet. What he said was 'adding more' was not 'adding another glass of wine', but 'adding another glass of wine', but 'adding another glass of wine'!"
"When he spoke to us, he was actually using the Eighteen Palms of the Dragon Descending to fight people...... And the trouble he's in trouble is ......"
"Don't sell it, say it quickly!"
"The two people who cut off Mr. Murong's hand...... Presumably it's Sasha and Qianyin's classmates!Brother Wu, they're in big trouble...... The Valley of the Wicked has already sent someone to arrest them and go back to ask them for their crimes, and they have been separated from Mr....... Murong!
Under the urging of everyone in unison, Nangong revealed his answer.
"It's really going to be changed......" (To be continued......
