"Missing?"

Listening to the report of the chief flag officer below, Zhao Wude and Lu Zhenfeng glanced at each other.

Deserter?

"Are you looking for it, are you sure it's missing?" Zhao Wude said in a deep voice.

The chief flag officer who came to report nodded in response: "Sure, the missing person is the person from the seventh small banner under my command, and he never came back after the night guard of the city tower the night before yesterday."

Yesterday we searched for a day, and searched the whole camp, but no one saw him, so today I came to report at once. ”

"Keep looking, the four doors are closed, I don't believe he can fly out of the city, and after he finds it, bring it back to me secretly, and I will interrogate it myself." With a slightly gloomy face, Lu Zhenfeng opened his mouth sonorously.

Grain and grass were burned, and strong enemies were surrounded.

At this time, if there is a deserter, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not become a fuse that ignites everyone's emotions.

"Yes!" In response, the chief flag officer bowed and left the tent.

The appearance of the deserters made Zhao Wude and Lu Zhenfeng feel a heavy pressure on their shoulders.

Whoa—

As soon as the chief flag officer who came to report had left with his front foot, one of his back feet opened the curtain and walked in.

"Captain, something happened." Pang Hu came to Zhao Wude and the two with a solemn expression.

"What's wrong again?" Looking at Pang Hu with a serious expression, Zhao Wude only felt that his head was big, which made people not live.

"I'm afraid I can't say a word or two, so please come with me, two adults."

Leading the two captains, Pang Hu and the three of them left the Shoucheng camp straight and entered an alley in Xiyoufang.

Looking around this dilapidated alley, Zhao Wude frowned slightly, when he entered the alley just now, many people secretly looked over here, with a trace of fear on their expressions.

Walking to the end of the alley, four Chu soldiers armed with steel knives were guarding in front of a courtyard.

Seeing that the captain came over with the captain in person, the four Chu soldiers immediately moved out of the way, revealing the courtyard gate behind them.

Squeak –

Pushing open the wooden door that was still stained with red Spring Festival couplets, a violent fishy smell made Zhao Wude and Lu Zhenfeng's faces change slightly.

I saw that in the small courtyard, three highly decomposed corpses, as if they had been eaten by something, were lying flat on the ground, blood stains were winding all over the ground, and a few pieces of shriveled dark yellow material were piled aside.

"Is there any beast in the city?" With a few long breaths, wanting to dispel the stench that hit his face, Zhao Wude stared at the tattered corpse that had almost been eaten up and spoke.

"If only it were a beast." Taking a steel knife, Pang Hu turned the ankle of one of the corpses over and pointed to the remaining tooth marks on it:

"My lord, look at this tooth mark, I'm afraid it's not something that ordinary beasts can leave behind."

Frowning as he approached, Zhao Wude stared at the corpse's ankles.

In the next second, his eyes changed suddenly!

This tooth mark ...... Did it happen to a human!?

"How is this possible? Not good! As if thinking of something, Zhao Wude didn't care about the stench, squatted down directly, lifted the left leg of the corpse, and slammed it off with a fist.

Smack-

With the breathing method, it was easy for Zhao Wude to smash human bones with one punch.

The white bones shattered, but there was a slight rustling sound suddenly from the inside of the bones, and countless wriggling fat round, pitch-black and ugly maggots swarmed out of the human bones, and they were about to crawl towards Zhao Wude's hands.

"Maggots!" Seeing the black maggot, Zhao Wude's face instantly tensed.

"Immediately bring a torch and cremate all three bodies!"

Retreating to avoid the surging black maggots, Zhao Wude gave orders to several Chu soldiers outside in a cold voice.

"Zhenfeng, you go back to the camp immediately, use the flying falcon to send a message to the general guard, there is a huge disaster in Shoucheng!"

Glancing sideways at the black maggots that were still surging on the corpse, Lu Zhenfeng didn't say much, nodded and quickly turned to leave.

"Pang Hu, order the whole battalion to search the whole city for me, as long as the body is found, it will be cremated immediately, and anyone who does not obey will be beheaded!" Zhao Wude's words were full of chill.

"Subordinates obey!"

From Zhao Wude's series of reactions, Pang Hu also saw that this matter was not trivial, and after answering, he left immediately, preparing to gather the whole battalion of soldiers and search the whole city.

Lu Zhenfeng and Pang Hu left one after another, and soon the torches were taken, and the three bodies were quickly cremated.

Standing beside the blazing fire, Zhao Wude's face was reflected by the beating firelight.

The hands behind his back were clenched into fists, and Zhao Wude's eyebrows were tightly locked.

Why, it's us here......

……

"The whole camp is assembled!

The captain has an order, search the whole city!

The baggage team goes east, the waist knife team goes west, the trap team goes north, and the archer team goes south!

Let's go! ”

Riding on a horse, passing the military order with a command flag, shouting and shuttling between the barracks.

Hearing the order, the four teams of soldiers quickly assembled out of the camp, and in the sound of roaring footsteps, thousands of soldiers began to search according to their respective small flags and general flags.

"Guan Peng, you follow me." Riding a blue-maned snowhoof horse, Lin Teng turned to Guan Peng on the side.

"Yes." In response, Guan Peng looked slightly sideways at the position of the Seventh General Flag.

For the past two days, he lived in the camp next to Lin Teng and did not return to the Seventh General Banner.

"Team Lin, the captain suddenly summoned the whole battalion to search the whole city, is something wrong?" Looking at his comrades-in-arms who hurriedly left the camp, Guan Peng faintly felt a hint of a storm coming.

"I don't know, I just got a notification too." Frowning slightly, Lin Teng was also confused about the captain's sudden order to search the whole city.

The sudden order, and the city-wide search, even if it was such a big battle to hunt down the wandering mob before.

Why, exactly?

A large number of soldiers poured into the city, and in an instant, the streets and alleys, alleys, alleys, courtyards, exclamations, and surprises came one after another, and the people were shocked and angry at the soldiers who suddenly and forcibly broke in.

After all, there was a forced requisition of people's food first, and no one knew what happened when the soldiers broke in again.

It's getting dark.

The scope of the search was gradually narrowed down to a few narrow corner alleys.

Tuk tuk!

"Open the door! Routine checks! Holding the torch high, Sun Wu slammed the wooden door in front of him with all his might.

Tuk tuk!

Tuk tuk!

After knocking several times and no one responded, Sun Wu and his fellow soldiers glanced at each other, then took two steps back, and then slammed their feet on the door.

Bang!

The deadbolt snapped, and the two panels slammed against the wall with a muffled sound.

Frowning and holding a torch, Sun Wu took the lead in entering this courtyard......

……

"You are just getting started, you can use the breathing method at most once a day, and if you use it more, it will hurt your heart and ......lungs," leaning on the stone wall, Lin Teng carefully taught Guan Peng the many matters and taboos of using the breathing method.

Previously, he was worried that Guan Peng would not be able to get started with the breathing method.

Fortunately, after taking him to experience the breathing method again the next day, he finally got started, which shows that Guan Peng is also talented in the breathing method.

"Knowing Team Lin." Nodding, Guan Peng just wanted to ask for some tips on the breathing method, when a miserable scream suddenly came from a lane on the left side of the two.

"Ah!!h

The screams were terrible.

At the same time, turning their heads to look in the direction where the voice came from, Lin Teng and Guan Peng's hearts sank suddenly.

Something happened!
