Chapter 416: Beast Traces Are Hard to Find

As soon as Mingxi and Lijiao entered the pass, they turned their faces, and the other soldiers were also disgusted. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

There was a stench in the pass, fortunately, there was snow and snow in Han Feng's plan to break the pass, but Rao was so, after being washed by the water in this pass, the stench was still uncomfortable from the bottom of my heart, and it was hard to imagine what the situation was before.

None of the 20,000 soldiers' bodies were intact, and it looked like they had been dead for some time, most of them decomposing, but the cause of the wounds could still be faintly discerned.

It's tearing and biting.

Among the stench, there is not only the smell of corpses, but also a strong fishy smell - which means that there have been more than 1,000 fierce beasts in Luoyan Pass.

"Luo Xing, tell people to quickly burn and bury these corpses to prevent epidemics in the army. Han Feng forcibly endured the stench coming to his nose and beckoned Luo Xing, who came over with a green face, "Find some more people to search in Guanzhong to see if you can find some clues." ”

Luo Xing took the order and left, and Mingxi looked at the largest building in the pass: "Feng, ask a few people to follow me, I want to go and see if Pan Zhengze is there." ”

Han Feng nodded, but Li Jian interjected half-intercepted: "Don't! Sister Mingxi, there are all dead people in this pass, I'm afraid that the general guarding the pass is also in danger, it's better to let Brother Han go with us, with him, plus my human Gu, wouldn't it be foolproof! Otherwise, if you have three long and two short, I'm afraid some people will be sad!"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Han Feng burst chestnuts in the center of Liji's eyebrows, and said, "Mingxi, what Lijiao said is that we want to go together, and I also want to find out what happened to Luoyanguan as soon as possible." ”

Mingxi tugged at the corners of his mouth and forced a laugh: "I understand, do you really think you don't trust me?"

Several people came to the door of Pan Zhengze's mansion together with Du Lun and more than a dozen guards and soldiers, only to see that the two half-human-high stone lions in front of the mansion were all full of deep claw marks;

The guards took the lead and moved the wooden plaque that was about to be smashed down at some point, and Han Feng saw a few rows of jackal footprints leading from the door to the mansion, so he walked in front with the human Gu and entered the door first.

The door was made of an inch thick plank, and several large holes had already been knocked out of it, and the hinges on both sides had been broken, so that the door panel fell on the steps and became a large slope.

Du Lun followed behind Han Feng and couldn't help laughing: "This is convenient for my wheelchair." But before he could finish speaking, he saw a human head under the hole in the door panel that had been knocked open. The man was dead, and his two eyeballs were almost protruding from their sockets.

Duren gasped in fright, and swallowed all the jokes he had in his stomach.

The further they walked in, the more they felt that they were walking in the Shura realm. On the rockery and in the garden, there were broken corpses everywhere, some of the soldiers guarding the courtyard and some of the servants and subordinates. The furnishings in the house are very simple and ordinary, a few rockeries must have been left by the predecessor, Pan Zhengze did not bother to take care of them after he came, the trees next to the rocks were all cut down cleanly, leaving only those few stones standing abruptly, like a rickety and twisted person, guarding the last side of the territory.

The courtyard was squarely arranged, and it was more of a small training place than a courtyard of the Courtyard. The weapon racks on both sides have long been knocked down, but the axes, hooks and forks left behind are all long-used things, showing that the master of the house has extraordinary attainments in weapons.

Mingxi squatted down and looked at a corpse that had fallen next to the weapon rack, and Lijiao instructed the Gu to turn the corpse over.

The corpse was different from the other one—the man had wide eyes and no other wounds on his body—and he was scared to death. The clothes on his body were the uniform of an officer at the level of a division commander, and he held a knife in his right hand, the blade of which was bloodless.

Mingxi pinched his nose and frowned: "Strange." I know this person, a veteran of Luoyan Pass. He was very brave and battle-hardened when he guarded the gate, how could he be scared to death?"

And Durham also sensed that something was wrong with the courtyard at this moment. He ordered his wheelchair to be pushed to the middle of the courtyard, and another soldier brought a broom and swept away the jackal tracks on both sides one by one, as he inferred.

Han Feng stared at the beast tracks on the ground tightly, and felt a strange feeling in his heart, and as the jackal's footprints were gradually cleaned up, the strangeness in his heart turned into a cold air, sweeping over his heart.

The jackal footprints are used to confuse vision, and between the human footprints and the jackal's footprints, there are thousands of animal tracks, and they are centered on this courtyard and radiate out to all sides!

This courtyard is not the place where it is attacked, but the center of the attack!

At this time, the soldiers who searched all over the "Luoyan Mansion" also returned from reconnaissance, and no one saw the trace of Pan Zhengze, and the number of dead and wounded mentioned by the crowd was pitifully small for the huge "Luoyan Mansion".

Mingxi pinched his fingers and calculated, and said, "In my opinion, there should be two hundred fewer guards." These guards are Pan Zhengze's personal soldiers, and they should live in the side courtyard on weekdays. The predecessor's personal soldiers all died when they fought with the Northern Dynasty, and now these people should have been brought by Pan Zhengze from Chengbo City. ”

In other words, these people are his cronies. Han Feng noticed a few pieces of animal hair in the corner of the courtyard, "Or, it's Zhao Gong's people." He waved his hand and ordered the guards and personal soldiers to all exit the compound, and only he, Mingxi, Lijiao, and Dulun were left in the courtyard, and then he asked again: "What do you think?"

Mingxi replied first: "In my opinion, it is Zhao Gong who has always been obscure, and this time he finally took advantage of the chaos. He was a courtier of the Zhan Dynasty, and there was no excuse for rebellion, so he pretended to guard Luoyan Pass to make trouble. He used animal traces to hide human tracks, and he wanted to move the bloody case of Luoyan Pass's murder to us, hehe, but unfortunately I haven't dealt with him much before, so I don't know what kind of person he is. ”

Han Feng said, "It's not just that. In my opinion, these traces of the beast are left by man...... Mingxi, didn't you mention that the Japanese had this kind of beast-turning person? If you make a bold guess that Pan Zhengze's personal soldiers were actually beast-turning people? If you imagine that the Japanese did not attack Chengbo City, it was actually because they had an agreement in private? What if Zhao Gong did not endure it all the time, but had already intervened in the war a long time ago? Do you still remember the incident when the Japanese and the mountain bandits attacked Qinghe City two years ago?

That battle was something he and Mingxi had experienced together, and although the other two were not there, they had heard about it. Mingxi's eyes rolled, and in the blink of an eye, he understood what Han Feng was worried about: "Do you suspect that Gong Zhao has already colluded with Xing Hou?"
