Volume 2 A Dream in Huangzhou Chapter 12 Strange Things

"It smells of blood!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

Although Zhang Biao has been obsessed with a comfortable life for many years, he is different from other laymen who can only do martial arts, and he is experienced in this kind of thing.

Seeing that everyone was a little panicked, even the businessmen who often walked this road were a little panicked, Zhang Biao immediately scolded in a low voice:

"Give me all peace!"

At this time, what everyone needs may be such a person who can scold them, at least in this way, they can put their expectations on Zhang Biao and find a backbone.

Therefore, after Zhang Biao's roar, although the people below were still a little panicked, they were fortunately not able to run away immediately.

Zhang Biao didn't expect them to calm down immediately now, after walking so many mountain roads over the years, they had already tended to be balanced, even he hadn't seen blood for a long time, let alone his subordinates and more scholars.

On the contrary, Zhu Chuyu and Qin Zi, although they were both a little nervous, they were obviously able to hold on.

This made him feel a little surprised in his heart, but also a little satisfied, at least it would be easier for him to deal with it.

After thinking carefully about the recent bandit forces, he had points in his heart, and the number and quality of the recent bandits were still within an acceptable range.

Thinking about it, they can't easily eat such a large group of people, most of them are released after receiving the passage money.

In fact, it stands to reason that even if it is to collect road silver, it is against the rules of the rivers and lakes, because these chambers of commerce actually take care of the bandit forces in the areas where the caravan will pass through every year, just so that they don't go too far.

Of course, it is obviously a bit stupid to talk to some bandits about morality, and they don't expect these bandits to keep their promises.

But at least these bandits know that they can't go out of their way to catch fish, at least they won't kill them.

"You go back to the mountain temple to hide first, Lao Wang, you come with me to the front to have a look!"

The others agreed again and again, and the old Wang who was called looked a little unpleasant, but he didn't refuse, he was the only one in the team who had seen blood except for Zhang Biao, and he really wanted to fight, and at least he could break through with the strength of the two of them.

"Xiao Li, you are watching outside the mountain temple, once you hear the signal, immediately take them down the mountain, remember not to bring the goods, and drive the horse in the opposite direction."

"Okay, okay, Brother Zhang!"

is called Xiao Li is the youngest young man from the Chamber of Commerce, but his skills are not bad, and he is relatively simple, and he often helps those scholars who are not in good health these days.

Although he was still very nervous at this time, he still obeyed Zhang Biao's arrangement, tried to maintain the stability of the team, and led them to the place of the mountain temple.

Zhang Biao has seen the world, and when he saw them like this, he couldn't help but sigh.

With this rabble, as long as the first wave of bandits is a little fiercer, a single charge can completely kill them.

But fortunately, the bandits are not a good team, most of them are outlaws who are wise enough to protect their lives, and they are naturally unwilling to sacrifice themselves to help their teammates get money.

"Qin, Brother Qin, what are you going to do? Brother Zhu, what's wrong with you? ”

Just as he was about to go directly, he suddenly heard Xiao Li's surprised voice behind him.

He turned his head, but Qin Zi and Zhu Chuyu did not follow everyone back to the Mountain Temple, but the two stepped forward together, looking at him with a smile on their faces.

"Brother Zhang, let's go with you."

Zhang Biao just wanted to scold the two of them back, but suddenly thought of something, and didn't speak for a while, but the old Wang on the side scolded sharply:

"Xiao Zhu, Xiao Qin, what do you want to do? Hurry back, this is not something you weak little scholars can mix! ”

Qin Zi didn't answer, just looked at them with a smile.

"Remember not to stay too far away from us...... Zhang Biao said suddenly.

"Brother Zhang!" Lao Wang looked at him suddenly, but saw the strange expression on his face, and he was speechless for a while, but he still didn't continue to say anything after all.

Qin Zi and the others still smiled as always, and did not forget to thank Zhang Biao.

Of course, at this time, the two had different ideas.

Qin Zi is a master of art and bold, and he feels that such a heavy smell of blood is somewhat strange.

And Zhu Chuyu, he thinks that such a powerful person has gone out, and he stays in a bunch of old, weak, sick and disabled, but it is easier to be unlucky.

By the way, after getting along with Qin Zi for a few days, he was inexplicably assimilated by the other party, and he also liked this feeling, just smiling and not talking.

……

Zhang Biao is also a second-rate master, his physical fitness is far beyond ordinary people, and his various abilities are also very good.

The source of the taste was not far from here, and several people trotted forward for a while, and Zhang Biao waved them to be careful.

Several people bent over and walked forward, trying not to make a sound.

The smell of blood was already close, just behind a bush ahead.

Zhang Biao was at the front, gently brushing aside the bushes, but he didn't make a sound.

The three men behind him followed him closely, through the bushes, crouching behind the mound of dirt, looking ahead.

Qin Zi noticed at this time that although Zhang Biao was squatting now, the muscles of his whole body were tense and in the best condition, like a crouching tiger, ready to burst out at any time.

He didn't continue to observe Zhang Biao, but also looked forward.

Whether he was prepared in his heart, he was still startled by the scene in front of him.

It seemed that there was some caravan similar to them that fell to the ground, but at this time none of them survived, all of them fell in pools of blood, and it was even difficult to distinguish them from each other.

All kinds of severed limbs and organs are mixed together, emitting a huge smell of blood, and blood donations have already stained this place red, like a mythical purgatory.

Even the experienced Zhang Biao was a little pale, after all, there were few such tragic things in their rivers and lakes, even if they killed people, few people destroyed the corpse like this, otherwise they would be ashamed of their fellow people in the rivers and lakes.

So this is the first time he has seen such a bloody scene.

This time, a few people finally understood why the smell of blood could drift so far.

This is not a simple bandit raiding a caravan, this is clearly a massacre!

The scene in front of them was too weird, and the four of them didn't dare to act rashly, and even held their breath unconsciously.

Even Qin Zi was a little dizzy at this time, but he was still trying to control his state and concentrate as much as possible.

"Puff-poof-puff-"

Several people did not dare to speak, and of course the dead man in front of him could not make a sound, and now there was only a dull sound of cutting meat floating in the air.

Yes, there are still alive here, in addition to the four of them, there are also six "blood men", all armed with long knives, constantly chopping the broken corpses on the ground.

And these people are almost all blood, I don't know if it's theirs or those on the ground, Qin Zi seems to have both sides.

The knife in his hand was constantly chopping, and it had already rolled its blades, and every time it was chopped, it had to bring up a piece of flesh and blood.

But even so, they still didn't stop, as if they were tireless machines, Qin Zi could even see that their bodies were already trembling, as if it was very difficult to lift the long knife.

At this moment, one of the "blood men" stopped and said in a hoarse voice:

"Big, big brother, it should be okay, right?"

The strange thing is that as the creator of this terrifying scene in front of him, this "bloody man" actually had deep fear in his words, and his voice was weak, as if he had experienced some kind of great fear, as if they were the victims of this strange scene.

No, this is not an illusion, with Qin Zi's perception, he can clearly feel that the breath of these people is extremely weak.

He relaxed a little, but he sensed the spirituality of several people, and sure enough, as he expected, the spirituality of several people, without exception, was all very weak, as if they had experienced some kind of mental blow, and even almost collapsed.

This situation made Qin Zi feel extremely weird, and for the sake of safety, he hurriedly restrained his spirituality.

Recently, he has been trying to learn from Mu Mu how she manipulates spirits.

Qin Zi himself is talented, coupled with Mu Mu's careful guidance, he has been able to restrain his spirituality very well, and in the long run, one day he will practice to the point where Mu Mu is happy, and the other party will not be able to find out his spiritual fluctuations.

Ahem, back to the point.

Hearing the words of the "bloody man", the other "bloody man" also stopped moving, and then, the remaining few people also stopped one after another.

The "bloody man" at the head looked at the scene in front of him a little blankly, a look of horror slowly appeared on his face, and then gradually became fierce, and then he couldn't help but shed tears.

Such a strange scene made the four people hiding in the dark feel furious when they looked at it. , subconsciously shrunk his neck.

The "blood man" at the head looked like crazy, crying and laughing, and soon infected several people around him, and their mental state was close to collapse.

Finally, the one who was the first to stop and shouted:

"No, it's not enough, burn them all, burn them all, burn them all!!"

As he kept shouting, the others slowly came back to their senses, shouting loudly to burn, burn, but none of them moved.

The four people hiding in the dark didn't dare to show their heads when they looked at it, and even glanced at each other, already retreating.

In fact, at this time, Qin Zi felt a little strange in his heart.

The mountain god of Taiwu Mountain does not look like an evil person, and it can even be said that he is quite righteous, and he is willing to care about those pedestrians passing by, but such a strange thing happened here, why didn't he care?

There must be something wrong with it, and now he has to find out the scope of the mountain god's shot.

"Everyone, have you ever heard the rumors of this Taiwu Mountain?"

At this time, Zhang Biao lowered his voice and said.

In fact, Qin Zi didn't feel that there was any need to lower his voice, after all, those few people didn't seem to have much reason left.

"Brother Zhang is talking about rumors that there are evil demons in Taiwu Mountain?"

"Yes, when I was in my hometown, I also heard similar rumors, it is said that this is a fierce place that even the imperial court is unwilling to take care of, but I always thought that those were made up by the old man to scare children, are those true?"

Zhang Biao shook his head and continued to whisper:

"Actually, I don't know the specific situation, but," he said here, a trace of fear flashed across his face, "Many years ago, I encountered some strange things on this mountain, you don't have to ask what it is, just know that if it wasn't for my master's action at that time, you might not have seen me." ”

Hearing this, Qin Zi and Zhu Chuyu both froze in their hearts, because they thought of Zhang Biao's state at the beginning, and they really had encountered ghosts.

Lao Wang seems to have heard Zhang Biao talk about it, but he always thought he was joking, and this time he just wanted to refute it, but after seeing the strange scene in front of him, he opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything.

Although Zhang Biao's words have not been verified at this moment, with this strange scene, it is still unexpectedly very convincing, at least Lao Wang has already made up his mind that he will not go to Taiwu Mountain again in the future.

Seeing that the incomparably strange people seemed to be about to stop, the four of them moved their bodies backwards, ready to run away at any time.

However, at this moment, Mu Mu, who had been silent all the way, suddenly said in Qin Zi's mind:

"Childe, the true spirits of these few seem to be about to dissipate!"
