Chapter 132: Tragic Situation

At the beginning of the morning sun, Brother Meng was leading his team of men and horses from the center of the city to the direction of the North City 'Gate', at this time there was not much time left from the two shifts of day and night 'handover', Brother Meng's heart was a little apprehensive for no reason, an unprecedented sense of tension shrouded in his body, although he did not know the reason, but he could feel that the big move in the city this morning was not an empty 'hole' wind.

However, since this kind of thing has not been explained above, it is not easy for him to speculate, and with his identity, it is very good to only do his own job.

"My family lives next to the north 'gate', and I didn't hear any movement over there last night, if someone really 'mixes' in, how can it be so quiet, Brother Meng, what do you say is going on?" A lieutenant who was walking to the left of Brother Meng couldn't help frowning and asked, "If it weren't for something serious, the bell of the tower would have rang so easily, alas." โ€

"Don't talk nonsense, there have always been more guards on the night shift at the 'gate' of the North City than there are people on the day shift, if something really happens, there will be no sound at all, and besides, I didn't receive a summons from the third child last night, so there should be nothing wrong." Although Brother Meng was beating a drum in his heart, he was extremely calm and comforted in the face of the doubts and 'confusion' of his brothers. "Besides, the emperor only said that there were thieves sneaking in, and it doesn't necessarily mean that our northern 'gate' is not holding on well, so don't continue to think nonsense, and wait until we go to the guard of the 'gate' in the north city and ask the third child, maybe everything will be understood."

In about half an hour, Brother Meng's team arrived at the guard of the 'gate' of the North City. At this moment, everyone only felt that today's special garrison was surprisingly quiet, not only could not hear the sound of 'exchange' talking, but also couldn't even see half a figure around, the air was quiet and almost suffocating, the atmosphere became more and more weird, and the feeling of uneasiness in Brother Meng's heart became more and more intense.

"Phew, nnd, these grandchildren on night duty have all slept with the third child." A soldier walking behind Brother Meng began to be a little scared, so he lowered his voice and scolded, which was supposed to give himself courage.

"There's something wrong with this garrison, everyone should be vigilant and beware of an ambush." Things have developed to this juncture, and Brother Meng has no way to continue to hypnosis himself, "Everything is still safe", so he gave an order at the front of the team, "The first two rows will go in with me to check the situation, and the back two rows will stay in place and stand by, all the people are not allowed to act without my order." โ€

"Yes."

Then, Brother Meng sacrificed his sword in his hand, and cautiously led people into the big 'gate' of the guard.

The guard of the 'gate' of the north castle is a slender and tall building with three floors, built against the city wall. On the top floor of the building, there is an iron 'gate' that leads directly to the city wall, and because the activity area of each floor of the guard is not very large, the soldiers on duty generally carry out activities on the city wall.

After searching around the first floor of the guard, they didn't find anything unusual, so Brother Meng led people up the narrow wooden staircase, and before everyone had time to enter the second floor, a younger soldier who followed behind saw the first corpse through the gap in the staircase, "Ah! Yes...... Yes...... Someone died! The little soldier screamed.

Brother Meng, who was walking at the forefront, couldn't help frowning, he first reprimanded the strange little soldier, and then asked someone to take him outside, and then looked up along everyone's line of sight.

Through the gap in the stairs, Brother Meng only saw a person lying on the top of the stairs in the previous section, and a pair of crimson eyes happened to 'show' out of the gap, as if he was peeping viciously at the people who came up from downstairs.

Brother Meng retracted his gaze, turned around and said sharply to the people who followed him, "The rest calm me down, it's your brother who died on it, you should be angry rather than scared when you see him!" If anyone can't stand it, they will quickly go outside and take it, and if anyone shouts nonsense, they will be given fifty lashes and driven out of the garrison! โ€

With that, Brother Meng stepped up the stairs in three or two steps, ran to the corpse, and reached out to flip his body over.

When he looked closer, Brother Meng found that the death of the deceased was extremely terrifying, his face was distorted and unrecognizable, and he didn't know what kind of inhuman torture he had suffered before he died. Brother Meng suppressed his grief and continued to examine the corpse carefully, and found that there was no bleeding from external injuries on the corpse, only a thin strangulation mark on his neck, thinking that he died of suffocation.

Immediately, four or five more corpses were found in the room on the second floor, and their death and method of death were very similar to those of the first person who was found. After everyone put all the bodies in one place, they continued to go upstairs, and only then did they find to their horror that there was not even a single living person in the entire guard, including the entire northern city wall.

Thirty or fifty men guarding the city were all killed silently overnight, what kind of powerful person would have such a ability to reach the sky?

At this moment, Brother Meng, who has always been calm and composed, couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, the person who did it deliberately used this method to kill people, which greatly reduced the diffusion of bloody breath, so for a considerable period of time after he started, no one would find out, indicating that this was a seamless plan that had been arranged a long time ago, indicating that something really happened in Huangsha City this time.

"Captain, what now? Will those murderers come back here, should we first ask the emperor or the garrison chief for support? "The deputy general, who has always liked to 'insert' with Brother Meng, has become more and more solemn at this time.

"Their purpose in doing this is nothing more than not wanting to alarm others, I think no matter what these people came to Huangsha City for, they will not return to the 'gate' of Beicheng for the time being, at this time, the problems in the city are afraid that they are more tricky, we can't 'mess up' first, and drag the other brothers 'legs'." Brother Meng said, "For now, let the brothers in our own team guard here, I'll go and send a message to the emperor and the garrison chief, and then take a team of people out to the city 'gate' to inspect a circle." After you have arranged for the guards, you will have the bodies of the dead brothers gathered together, and check them one by one according to the roster, and see if any of them escaped and ascended to heaven last night. โ€

"Yes!" The deputy general received the order and went to work himself.

Brother Meng sighed and forced himself to cheer up his 'spirits', as the leader of this small team, he always had to make an example of the soldiers below.

The storm is coming, and the situation that Yellow Sand City will face next may be even more severe by a hundred times and a thousand times. q
