Chapter 4: A Thunderbolt from a Clear Day

At the time of this tragedy, Zitong, who was far away in Python Mountain, didn't know that his closest people were long gone, and he didn't know that the village he grew up in had long been wiped out.

"Qiuqiu, let's leave for home tomorrow morning, I've been feeling so unwell lately, as if I had lost something. "Chewed on the steamed buns, Zitong said.

He did not dare to roast meat in the forest, because the smell of cooked meat was likely to attract a group of mad wolves, and the wolves usually move in groups, far from being something that a child boy and Qiuqiu could handle!

Zitong looked at the quiet Qiuqiu, bared his teeth and smiled, stood up, extinguished the fire, and climbed to a big tree with Qiuqiu. At night, the trees can be relatively safe for people who are not hunting.

Nothing was said all night.

The forest is quiet in the morning, and all the foraging beasts are just beginning to hunt. By the time the first rays of sunlight hit the forest, Zitong had already woken up. He was sorting out the harvest of this entry into the mountain, folding the snake skin and putting it in his backpack, as well as the uneaten dry food or something, and then ran to a pond at the foot of the mountain, washed his body, because when he was in the forest, he was covered with all kinds of grass juice, and after cleaning up, Zitong found a clean clothes to put on, and began to run in the direction of the village.

In the early morning of the same day, in the Eastern Imperial Kingdom, the third son of the Li family was in the room.

"It's been almost three days, and there has been no news yet, and the people sent out are doing things like this, and there is no news at all?"

"Young master, this is a matter of concern, it's only been three days, counting the distance, they should be the destination they arrived at yesterday, wait, maybe there will be news today." ”

"No, don't wait, prepare the carriage, let's set off, call Master Cheng, hurry up, I always feel that something has happened, the time of the day should be almost up!"

"Then, the eldest young master and the second young master?"

"Don't worry about the two of them, they both want to behave well in front of their grandfather, and they will definitely not let go of this opportunity, I heard that my second brother went out after the drill last night, and now, I'm afraid I'm just about to arrive!"

"Shall we ・・・・・・?"

"No, we don't have to fight, no matter what the process is, I only need Lingzhi to get my little sister's illness, and the rest, I don't have the heart to grab anything." However, our people should be the first to arrive, I hope someone can stabilize the villagers and don't hand over the Lingzhi to others!"

"Kang Meng, the captain of Xuancheng, the strength of the peak of the human level, I think there should be no problem. Uncle Zhen thought about it for a moment and replied in detail.

"Uncle Zhen, the carriage is ready!" said a housekeeper running over.

"Okay, call Master Shangcheng, let's go!" the third prince ordered.

"Yes!"

After a while, a pair of people and horses ran out of the Li family compound, about a dozen or so people, the most conspicuous was a person in front, this person was riding on a horse fiercely, his eyes were open and closed, giving people a kind of momentum that was not angry and self-threatening, it was the person who was called Master Cheng by the third prince,

His martial arts cultivation was also the highest among a group of people, reaching the peak of the awakening period. Led by him, safety is absolutely foolproof.

Here is an introduction to the martial arts cultivation system, the most basic level is the martial arts, divided into nine levels, basically as long as there are exercises, not really unable to practice people, basically can reach the peak of the human level, like Kang Meng, is to get the exercises, hard work to cultivate, after the human level, for the martial arts, great martial arts, Wu Jue, Wu Zong, Wu Chan, big Wu Chan, is the realm of the ancestor of the Li family, after that is a very rare martial spirit, and the legendary Zhenwu Realm, but there has been no person in the Zhenwu Realm on the continent for a long, long time, according to legend, the Zhenwu Realm is already the realm of demigods, which can break the void, but what does the Zhenwu Realm look like, it is not known.

The third son of the Li family and his party quickly drove in the direction of Kaiyang Village.

At the same time, five miles away from Kaiyang Village, a team of people was gathering momentum.

"Report!"

"Come in!"

"Second son, the pathfinder in front has returned. The previous voice said.

"Oh, but you see Kaiyang Village?" asked the man known as the second son.

"Well, I saw it, but I saw it, but ・・・・・・"

"Say whatever you want, but what!!" the voice was a little impatient.

"Yes! According to the report of the spies, Kaiyang Village has been slaughtered, and not a single animal has survived! Looking at the traces of the blood drying up, it was ・・・・・・ by the murderer around the second watch last night."

"What?!Who is so bold to slaughter a village, it is really lawless!But what are the results of the investigation?" When the second prince heard the news, he jumped up from his chair in fright. This kind of massacre of civilians by warriors has not happened for a long time, let alone under the jurisdiction of the Eastern Empire, this kind of thing must not be done by people who are mad!

"Hurry up! Send someone to report! Let's go to the village to see! What clues are there, the village is gone, you can report it, but the little sister's elixir, the medicine is gone, and the little sister will still suffer from the disease, not to mention, grandpa's ・・・・・ there Alas" The more the second son thought about it, the more unhappy he became, frowning and leading people towards Kaiyang Village.

On the contrary, the mood was different from that of Zitong, who rushed back, although there was something wrong in his heart, but when he thought that he could eat the food cooked by his mother when he got home, Zitong was drooling for a while, and his speed couldn't help but speed up a little.

It was about to arrive at the village, but Zitong clearly felt the difference, there was no noise in the past, there was only a death-like silence, at this moment, Zitong's heart couldn't help but be shocked, immediately threw down the gun, and ran away quickly!

"Huh!" Zitong's body suddenly stopped from a state of rapid running!

"How could it be? I've only been gone for two days, how can this be!!" Standing in front of the village, his eyes were full of corpses and bloodstains. "Dad, mother!!" Zitong shouted loudly, and at the same time his body quickly ran towards the house.

When Zitong ran back to the door of his house, he saw that his house had collapsed, and there was a corpse lying in front of the door, the blood stains on his chest had long since dried up, and the clothes on his body were not the same as the mother who stuffed his steamed buns two days ago, Zitong's head suddenly buzzed, and the sky was spinning! "How can this be, how can it be?!!" picked up the corpse and cried bitterly.

"Ahh

"Where's my father?!!??!?!

Finally, in another relatively clean place, Mu Zitong found his father's body, but he couldn't find his sister! Seeing his father, Zitong knelt in front of the corpse, looking at his father's face, although pale and desperate, but there was a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, of course, the collapsed Zitong didn't notice this at all, at this moment, when he saw his father's corpse, his mind was full of scenes of his father taking him hunting, the first time he taught hunting, the first time he made a trap, the first time he caught a rabbit, the father's smile when he caught a rabbit in his own trap, and the eyes full of expectation when he gave himself an iron gun, and, and, ・・・・・・

Zitong directly and completely collapsed, the once beautiful, the former shijie, is now completely gone, leaving only a cold corpse. Faced with such a result, Zitong's body finally couldn't support it and passed out.

"Childe, I found a living one here!" Not long after Zitong fainted, a voice suddenly sounded.

"Bring it here!!"

"Wow!" A bowl of cold water was poured directly on Zitong's face, and Zitong slowly opened his eyes with a cold shudder.

As far as the eye could see, it was in a large tent, and there were several people standing next to it, and some of them exuded the momentum of a warrior, oppressing Zitong from daring to move. Trying to move his hands, he did find that his body was tied. "These people are really cautious!" Zitong said secretly in his heart.

Zitong, who had regained his senses, slowly woke up from the pain of losing his loved ones, and looked at a person a few years older than himself in the middle of the middle, "Who are you?!" asked in a hoarse voice.

"Don't be in a hurry to ask us, who are you, and what do you know about the killings in this village?" the young man asked, looking at the ragged man in front of him.

"Hmm, you didn't kill people?" Zitong heard something.

"Joke, how could we do such a hurtful thing. To tell you the truth, we are here to buy the Nine Blood Lingzhi from your village, but unfortunately we have just arrived here, but we saw such a scene and found you alive, of course we have to ask clearly!"

"I, I'm from this village, I went out to play two days ago, and then I was restless, I was afraid of what would happen, so I hurried back, but I found ・・・・・・," Zitong said, and couldn't help but think of his father, and tears fell.

"Alas, I'm sorry, the festival is smooth!" After speaking, the second son may feel that this little guy who is about the same age as the third brother really doesn't know anything, so he took someone away. Before leaving, he ordered someone to loosen the tie, but the ropes of his hands and feet were still not untied. Only Zitong was left alone in the house, alone and crying.
