Chapter 197: The Killing Competition

Whether it was that person or not, Nangong Hua was not sure, but since he had already arrived at the foot of the mountain, there was naturally no reason to return empty-handed. Anyway, he decided to go and see it, but he was afraid that he would encounter danger, so he still hesitated a little.

"Newspaper. Just as the six people in the big tent were silently facing each other, a soldier's loud voice suddenly sounded outside the tent.

"Come in. Nangong Hua frowned, and shouted with some displeasure. He had told his entourage not to be disturbed by anyone while he was deliberating.

"What's the matter?" Nangong Hua asked.

"Your Highness, four of our brother's corpses have been found at the foot of the Three Fingers Peak. The soldier knelt down and saluted, then reported loudly.

"Why are there casualties? Doesn't it mean that you are not allowed to clash with anyone without my order?" Nangong Hua Huoran stood up from his seat and asked with an angry face.

"Your Highness is angry, and he is guilty of his duties. When we found the four bodies, there were no signs of a fight at the scene, and there were no suspicious figures around. The soldier hurriedly explained.

"No one knows how they died?" Nangong Hua frowned and asked.

"Yes, Your Highness. The soldier nodded in reply.

"Immediately send someone to search the vicinity, and if any suspicious people are found, they will all be arrested. In addition, a detachment of 100 people was stationed at the foot of the Three Fingers Peak, prohibiting anyone from entering, and those who disobeyed the order would be killed. Nangong Hua immediately ordered.

"Obedience. The soldier was about to leave, when a crisp 'announcement' sounded outside the tent.

"Come in," Nangong Hua's brows immediately tightened a little.

"Your Highness, the brothers found eight corpses at the foot of the Five Finger Peak, which is far away from the Five Finger Mountains. The second soldier who came in reported.

"There are casualties again," Nangong Hua heard this, and his heart was suddenly shocked and angry. Who is so bold to kill his own soldiers again and again, it is simply a contempt and insult to him, the great prince, and the Southern Yan Empire.

Several people in the tent could not help but be surprised when they heard the casualty reports from the army one after another, and they looked at each other with each other, not knowing what was going on.

"Go out and have a look. Nangong Hua felt that something was unusual, and he dropped a sentence with a calm face, and walked out of the tent. Seeing this, the five worshippers and two soldiers hurriedly followed.

"Who found it?" Nangong Hua came to the foot of Wuzhi Peak Mountain and looked at the eight headless corpses whose heads had been cut off, and asked with a cold face.

"His Royal Highness, it was discovered by his humble position. One of the soldiers in charge of guarding the scene replied.

"Tell me about the situation. Nangong Hua motioned for the five worshippers to inspect the corpse, and said to the soldier.

"When I returned to Your Highness, when I was patrolling the neighborhood with these eight brothers, I went into the woods for a while, and when I came back, I saw that their heads had been cut off. The soldier said with a slight embarrassment.

"During that time, you didn't hear any sounds, or perceive anything abnormal?" Nangong Hua didn't care about the soldier's words at all, he only cared about what happened.

"Nope. Even when he was about to come out of the woods, he heard their voices, but when he saw them, they were all corpses. The soldier remembered the strange scene at that time, and his face turned slightly pale.

"Your Highness, these eight people died in four different ways. It can be seen that there should be four murderers. After examining the death of the eight corpses and the famous wound on the neck, Dong Lao said with a solemn face.

"Is that sure?" Nangong Hua, who had received an affirmative reply, glanced at the dozens of soldiers present and asked, "Has anyone seen four strangers appear at the same time?"

"The order is to form a small detachment of every fifty people, and form a long snake formation for every five squads, to conduct a thorough inspection of the surrounding area, even if it is three feet into the ground, I must find out those four people. Seeing that no one answered, Nangong Hua vaguely understood something in his heart, and ordered directly without any hesitation.

He didn't know anything about the murderer for the time being, but what he knew was that the four murderers had chosen to kill a small number of soldiers who were left alone. In order to avoid being broken one by one and causing the morale of the army to be great, only by uniting and gathering together can the enemy have no chance to take advantage of it.

Nangong Hua was extremely angry at the enemy's contempt for him, and he couldn't wait to immediately turn the Five Finger Mountain Range upside down and rescue the four murderers who dared to challenge his authority.

It's just that anger is anger, and Nangong Hua is very suspicious in his heart, who are these four elusive people, why do they want to attack their own soldiers, do they have a grudge against the Nanyan Empire, or do they have a grudge with the second brother, or have they had a grudge with themselves?

Or are these four people the same people who beat the second brother to a serious injury and killed twenty-eight shì guards last time?

"Your Highness, this matter is very strange, and you must not lose your mind because of anger. Dong Lao said in a solemn tone. After examining the eight corpses, he checked the surrounding terrain again and found that there were no traces of the four murderers except for the eight corpses and the nine traces of the surviving soldier. In other words, the murderer did not appear at the scene, as if the eight bodies had died on their own. In Earthly parlance, it's similar to a locked room murder.

Dong Lao was taken aback by his discovery, if his guess was not wrong, either these four people were masters of murder and knew how to eliminate the traces of crime left by themselves, or they were masters of martial arts cultivation to reach the realm of at least the martial arts king.

There were only four people who kept assassinating the soldiers in the army, and tens of thousands of people on their side didn't even see the shadow of the other party, which made everyone present feel very angry and aggrieved, and at the same time there was a little anxiety and fear in their hearts.

"Your Highness, another brother reported that twenty-six corpses had been found on the left side of the Four Finger Peak. After a soldier in the distance panted and ran to a general and whispered a report, the general's expression changed suddenly, waved his hand to signal the soldier to step back, and hurriedly walked to Nangong Hua and reported in a low voice.

"What?" Nangong Hua felt that his lungs were about to explode, his whole body trembled slightly because of anger, his face became iron-blue, his forehead was blue, and his fists clenched and made a gurgling sound of bones.

Is it tolerable or unbearable, the other party actually killed twenty-six soldiers in a row less than two hundred meters away from him, and he and the others didn't realize it, isn't this tantamount to a big slap on himself in front of everyone?

As ugly as Nangong Hua's face was the five old worshippers, although the general deliberately lowered his voice, but it did not escape their ears, when he heard what the general said, his face also became extremely embarrassed, but he was also a master of the martial arts level, and his divine sense covered it, and the range could reach within a kilometer, but Fang Cai himself and the others did not notice anything abnormal at all, which shows that the other party is not only unpredictable, but also very clever in killing methods.

"Brother, you are too good, you are always the one who robs me. After killing twenty-six soldiers at Four Finger Peak, the four Cayenne left the gods and swept in the direction of One Finger Peak unconsciously, and the ice spirit who fell to the bottom of the second shouted angrily at Bingwu.

"You can't blame me for this, if you want my brother and me to lose, then I'll give everyone to you. Bingwu shrugged his shoulders, ignoring the cold rage.

When deciding to go down the mountain to kill, Cayenne proposes a killing contest to see who can kill the most people, and the other three agree on the spot. It was only later when they really wanted to rob and kill people that Bing Ling and Lu Xiaofeng sadly discovered that Cayenne and Bing Wu were simply arrogant robbers, and after killing the people they grabbed very quickly, they even came to rob and kill the soldiers whose knives had been put on people's necks, which was really hateful. The angry ice spirit finally couldn't help but explode after he couldn't bear it anymore.

"Hmph, if you lose, I won't recognize you as a brother. Ice Spirit glared at the gloating Cayenne, pursed his lips, and said to Bing Wu hatefully.

"Then give me all the people you snatched. Bingwu was very shameless.

"Bingwu, you are so shameless, you still want to unite with my sister and two people to deal with me. Cayenne, who was lonely, said dissatisfied, turned to Lu Xiaofeng and said, "Xiaofeng, how about we cooperate? Otherwise, we will be bullied to death by their brother and sister." ”

"No, I like to be on my own. Lu Xiaofeng was very faceless and directly rejected Cayenne's proposal.

"I faint you. Cayenne reluctantly rewarded Lu Xiaofeng with a roll of his eyes, and said angrily. Seeing him eating and hitting the wall, the Bingwu brothers and sisters couldn't help but feel happy. There is no way, this Cayenne is completely born to kill people, and his strength cultivation is above everyone, everyone can't rob him at all, so far, he has killed fourteen people, and Bing Wu is only twelve people, and Bing Ling and Lu Xiaofeng are only six people each, far behind them.

"Kill, what are you afraid of, anyway, there are at least tens of thousands of people here, enough for us to kill for a long time. Bing Wu looked at the figures all over the mountains around the Five Finger Mountain Range, a fierce light flashed in his eyes, and everyone who dared to try to provoke the master, he had to be completely killed by the sword.

"Kill, kill," Cayenne shouted, and his figure instantly sped up to the destination in front of him, and at the corner of the Finger Peak, a team of fifty people passed by, which was a good target for attack.

"Alas, these four little ones are becoming more and more lawless. Zhang Huaming, who was sitting in the secret room for alchemy, heard the conversation of the four little spirit boys, and shook his head with laughter, he never thought that these four little guys would actually take pleasure in killing people, and even started a killing competition. And I'm afraid that my master, who taught them, will not have a good reputation.
