Chapter 292: Slaughtering the Village

Ji Yuexi never thought that the village they were coming to would be like this.

The village without fireworks looks depressed and pitiful, like a haunted house.

The ground was covered with fallen autumn leaves, covered with thick dust, and the doors of the houses were crumbling, but there was no intention of collapsing.

The lack of human population casts a dusty filter over the village, and it looks like the end is coming.

Zhu Ziyue didn't expect that this would be the case, even if there was no woodcutter's family, there would be other villagers living here.

Now I can't even see a human figure.

He couldn't believe that this was the largest village in the vicinity, and given the size of the village, he couldn't believe that all the villagers could disappear overnight.

Although he had just returned to Nandan, he didn't think that such terrible things would happen in the years he was away.

This is an important village connecting Nandan and the Western Jin Dynasty, and he and Chi Jingyu have been here.

The villagers here have a long history in this vicinity, and they have formed a relatively tribal group.

Most people in Nandan value inheritance the most, and the villagers have lived in this place for generations, and it is impossible for the whole village to move together unless something major happens.

Not to mention, it's not a migration yet.

It was the first time for Wuwu to see such a strange scene, and he nervously grabbed Ji Yuexi's hand, and had already buried his face in his mother's arms.

"Mother, don't be afraid ......"

I began to tremble when I spoke, and my heart became more and more afraid.

She has the same spiritual power as Ji Yuexi, where people's eyes can't see, she can feel it with her own spiritual power.

What's here......

Ji Yuexi patted her, tried her best to stabilize her emotions, and coaxed Wufang first.

To be honest, when she saw this scene, she suddenly had the feeling of a ghost movie.

The size of the village is quite large, and you can even see crops that have just been dried not far away.

Even if you have to move away, you shouldn't leave these things behind, it's all food, and in this era of food shortage, it won't be left behind at all.

It's hard to figure out, and she doubts it.

"You also feel that something is wrong?" Zhuzi looked back at Ji Yuexi.

"Of course."

Ji Yuexi pointed not far away, where the corn was still drying, "It's already moldy, it looks like they've disappeared for some time." ”

She didn't say to move away, but to disappear.

It's obviously the same as Zhuzi's conjecture.

It doesn't seem as simple as it seems.

At present, they are isolated and helpless, and there is no government to judge, and even the entire Nandan army cannot be mobilized.

Only when Chi Jingyu asks for foreign aid to return can there be a glimmer of hope.

And relying on two people to investigate, taking a three-year-old child with is obviously a bit far-fetched.

Where did the villagers go? Is it dead or gone?

In the past, Ji Yuexi rarely cared about things other than the people around her, but now after coming to Nandan, she has to be aware of it, and there are more and more strange things around her, and being caught off guard can make her afraid.

"Is this close to Nandan?" Ji Yuexi asked as he walked into the courtyard.

Sensing something, she put Wuwu down and asked Zhuzi Yue to help her hold Wuwu, and she began to observe what was going on around here.

Ji Yuexi has experience in this area, but not much.

The forensic doctor is also a type of doctor, and she has her own set of investigative directions when it comes to examining corpses.

However, it is not suitable for children.

Wuyi, who was let go of her hand by her mother, also knew what she was going to do, and threw herself directly into Zhu Ziyue's arms.

Try to bury your face and not want to see paying attention to everything around you.

Even though it's dawn now, it makes people feel dark, like a layer of gray fog that can't be blown away, and after staying for a long time, breathing feels a little dull.

The village was empty, and it was terrible to look at.

Originally, Ji Yuexi thought it was empty, but it wasn't until he walked in that he realized where the people had gone.

In the courtyard closest to her, she pushed the door open and walked in, and saw the body in the courtyard.

Die in an instant, without pain.

The male corpse seems to be still chopping wood here, killing with one move, and has no chance to defend at all, but now it has become a dry corpse, and it seems that he has been dead for a long time.

Because of the climate in Nandan, the decay was further accelerated, the skin and flesh had long been corroded, and the scene was chaotic, Ji Yuexi only glanced at it, covered his mouth and nose and retreated.

You can't let Wu Yu see such a scene.

Ji Yuexi had a cold spirit bead on his body, and quickly scanned the corpse up and down, and found that the fatal injury was a big knife.

The opponent's martial arts are strong, and ordinary people are not opponents at all.

This means that there was a brutal massacre, with people coming with weapons and helpless villagers falling victims.

Wiped out the entire village overnight, what kind of deep hatred would do such a thing?

They can't find living people, and they can't find answers.

Chi Jingyu and Zhu Ziyue have been fighting for so many years, the purpose is for peace, but without war, there will be vicious people.

These things were so strange that the sharper the nose of Zhuzi could smell some of them, and he quickly took out a clean handkerchief from his arms, covered his mouth, and finally tied it to her face.

"Today Wuyi is a little princess, how about wearing a mask to prevent bad people and keep it mysterious?"

The more the princes tried to treat this encounter as a game.

Coax Wufu and let her wear it.

In fact, it is not a good thing for her to inhale these flavors less.

Even Ji Yuexi felt disgusting, let alone a child, who was still her own biological daughter.

When Ji Yuexi closed the door, he turned around and found Zhu Ziyue, and shook his head at him.

Things were even more tragic than they seemed to her, and she had no choice, let alone a place to start.

There is too little information, let alone only two people, and it is impossible to find out the news in a short period of time.

Not to mention, they still have to go to the Valley of the Medicine King.

Before, Ji Yuexi was still thinking about whether Tu Village would have anything to do with their coming to Nandan, and thought about it carefully.

The timing of the slaughter of the village was not right, they were still dealing with malaria in Kyoto at that time, and Zhuzhang had to send people to support, and it was absolutely impossible to know their plans later.

But it cannot be ruled out that this matter has nothing to do with the Zhu family and the Yang family.

After all, they are the head snakes of this place, and they disappeared into a village for no reason, maybe they know the truth.

The other party is a master, killing people invisibly, and even killing people from a village in a short period of time, if it is an enemy, the situation does not look good.

If he is from one of the houses? This is the biggest bad news for Ji Yuexi and them.

Zhu Ziyue's face was even more gloomy, and he understood what Ji Yuexi meant.

Even if this matter is not what the family is called, but the family will know about it, and even connive at it, then the matter will be said.

He lost his judgment because of this matter, so he could only look up and ask Ji Yuexi: "Now, what should we do now?" ”

"Let's see what else is worth using, and mourn and change."

Ji Yuexi pursed her lips and replied, and looked innocent after speaking.

What if they were looking for something in this village?

Follow them? Or put her in a safe place?

Ji Yuexi knew that she had spiritual power, maybe it was stronger than her own, and now she could feel more things than her own.

But in the end, it's still a three-year-old child, do you want to take her away, or let her stay well?

Ji Yuexi obviously doesn't want to be alone.

can let her stay around, and I'm afraid that she won't be able to accept it.

The more Zhuzi knew what Ji Yuexi meant, he hugged Wu Yu directly, "The embroidered handkerchief can block her whole face." ”

Zhu Ziyue's expression was a little embarrassed, this was his proposal.

The embroidered handkerchief was the only thing clean on his body, and it was actually not impossible to use it as a masked cloth for Wufu now.

"It's okay, maybe I'll find some clean clothes."

Ji Yuexi sighed, and his tone was also helpless.

Their clothes were already dirty, not to mention the fact that there were so many corpses in the village.

Maybe the moment you walk in, you will already be stained with the smell of corpses that you shouldn't have.

Not to mention the case of not knowing how many corpses there are.

It's not terrible to be dead, but it's a bit bloody before someone from a village dies.

It is impossible for a professional doctor to do nothing, but the thought of these people not being blind to death still makes me feel a little uncomfortable in my heart.

Wufu was hugged by Zhuziyue, hooked his neck with his hand, and looked at the two adults pitifully, not knowing what to do.

The more nervous the person became, the more subconsciously exuded his spiritual power, and began to keenly observe the neighborhood.

Suddenly, as if he had discovered something, he suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed in another direction.

"Mother, there's something there."

She felt a small thing moving there, and though she didn't know what it was, she could clearly feel that it was alive.

The whole lifeless village, the things that make children feel scared, must be the most terrifying things.

If there is a real life, then you can know what happened that day.

Ji Yuexi and Zhuzi hurriedly rushed to that place, and finally saw what Wu Wu said.

"A black cat." Zhuzi looked at the kitten skinny and replied helplessly.

Just as he was about to get closer, the moment the cat saw the person, he went directly into the house.

It seems that after the slaughter of the village, the cat still lives here, but it is so thin that it has obviously not eaten for a long time.

I was even more afraid of seeing people, and disappeared after hearing the movement.

They move very lightly, and the cat didn't notice it at first, but later found out that it was really not light.

Ji Yuexi looked at the black cat, and suddenly tried to push his mental power to lock the cat's location.

"There's something around his neck."

Ji Yuexi felt that there was a piece of metal on it, and it seemed that there were still words written on it.

At this time, any clue is worth paying attention to.

They were very interested in this killing, and they wanted to see what happened, whether it was malicious or unavoidable.

It stands to reason that the war in the entire Great Realm had already ended three years ago, so what did they not find out?

Even if Ji Yuexi doesn't understand it very well, the more you know this kind of thing.

"Are we going to lure the cat out now?" Zhuzi asked, a little unsure.

What about a cat with a word on its collar?

Cats who are so alert panic when they see people and can't touch them at all.

And now they don't have any food on them to get the cats to come.

"There's a little pond over there."

Wu Wu, who couldn't hold it anymore, began to say another sentence.

She gestured to another house not far away.

There really is a small pond.
