Volume 2: Catching the Cicada Chapter 20: The Whip of the Horse is Crippled
The first rays of sunlight in the morning shone on the quiet village, and Han Dona, who had secretly taken a cold shower, walked out of the room in good spirits.
The breeze in the mountains blew her long, wet and flowing hair, and the change of hairstyle made Nana a little shy.
When I came to the square, the giants tied to one corner were sleeping together, still clutching the wolf bones that had been eaten yesterday. Shaking his head, it was a pity that these people did not escape at night, and missed the reason to take the opportunity to kill.
The stupid big man named Sanhei Niu was lying at the door of Liu Ying's room, snoring, feeling that he was dutifully guarding the door for his master, but he didn't understand, in his snoring, which "master" could rest quietly?
Just as he was hesitating whether to knock on the door to say hello or go for breakfast, he saw Liu Ying returning from a distance after finishing the morning class.
A thin figure followed one step behind Liu Ying, and when he looked at it, it was actually Feng!
Feng, who was covered in mud and had blue and purple on his head and face, saw Han Dona, and the stubborn and withdrawn child's face turned red, and he fled with a sigh.
Han Dona was really curious, how did the two guys, one withdrawn and one cold and arrogant, get to the pile? opened her mouth to shout, and stopped and walked towards Liu Ying, halfway through, she strode diagonally and strode over to finish her morning exercise, elegant and noble Long Lan.
The three stood in three directions of the triangle, greeting each other, nodding and smiling.
Long Lan was amazed by Nana's unusual demeanor, and saw that Liu Ying seemed to have recovered to its original state, so she couldn't help but propose: "Brother Liu, why don't we have a discussion?"
Liu Ying rolled her eyes and turned her head to leave: "Hungry, go for breakfast!"
Breakfast was wheat and vegetable porridge made by the end of the naphthalene, and Liu Ying ate 7 of them in one go, just a big and red "stall" similar to a steamed bun.
Seeing that everyone was eating sweetly, Mo Na's depressed mood also improved a lot, and a smile reappeared on her gentle face.
Seeing that her friend got rid of her self-blame, Nana was very happy, and pulled Mo Na to whisper. Mu Wu's injuries were not too serious, but his eyes didn't know if he could recover, and he was also sitting together slowly drinking wheat porridge wrapped in a white cloth, and Qin Can was silently serving on the side.
Long Lan saw that everyone had almost eaten, and looked at Mu Wu with a cough: "Lord Mu Wu." ”
Hearing this, Mu Wu hurriedly put down the grapefruit leaf water in his hand and replied respectfully: "Don't dare, what does the divine envoy command?"
"What's our next trip?" Long Lan asked hesitantly as he looked at the white cloth on Mu Wu's eyes.
Mu Wu was silent for a while, and sighed: "All the people of my clan are injured and sick, and it is difficult for them to travel, so I would like to ask the two divine envoys to rush to the royal capital of our clan and lead the people to rescue us." After speaking, he turned his head and looked around, "Nana, Nana......"
Han Dona hurriedly replied and came to Mu Wu's side, looking at Mu Wu's face as if he had grown old overnight, his new white hair overnight, and then seeing his hands groping in the air blankly, she couldn't help but feel sour in her heart, firmly held Mu Wu's dry and warm big hand, and said softly: "I'm here." ”
"Nana will lead the way for the two oracles, please set off immediately, it is estimated that you will be able to reach the royal capital of our clan in three or five days, Yigong City, and lead the clansmen back to rescue us as soon as possible." ”
"Alas, this can't be done," Long Lan sighed, "Yesterday, the 'blood-clothed general' Gonzoros said that he came here to join the troops, this person was seriously injured and escaped, and his whereabouts were also exposed here, although it was a dangerous situation to go, but staying was almost waiting for death." ”
Long Lan looked at Mu Wu's face with burning marks sincerely, "Lord Mu Wu must also understand that you let us go to the royal capital to ask for help, just to let me leave you and escape alone." ”
"Mistress Credy, please listen to me......"
"Okay, no need to say anything!" Liu Ying interrupted coldly as she took a small sip of the wheat porridge in the bowl.
"I will definitely go, according to my opinion, what Goundos said about the convergence of the troops is mostly a lie and intimidation, you can go home with confidence, but ......"
Liu Ying gently put down the bowl in his hand, his eyes were like knives, and from his right hand side, he looked at Long Lan, Mu Wu, Han Dona, Qin Can, Heizi, Sangkan, Feng, Zhiliangren, Terra and Mo Na, and then looked at Cha Wenbin and others who still couldn't get up in the house, and said a word, "You must catch the spies among you first!"
Everyone was in an uproar, surprised and unbelievable, and everyone stared at Liu Ying who threw the bomb with their mouths wide open as if they had seen a ghost. If it weren't for his magical "prediction" and the prestige he had built up in blood and fire, he would have fried the pot a long time ago.
Mu Wu's voice trembled, which could be said to be both surprised and angry, "Traitor, traitor, what kind of traitor? What does Lord Liu mean by this?!"
Looking at the people who were silently and dumbfounded waiting for his explanation, Liu Ying Shi Ran picked up the bowl again and smiled slightly, "Take it easy, I'll tease you." ”
"Wow~"
"Lord Liu! May Ji Wowa bless you with your rotten mouth!"
"It's all a joke?
"Isn't it?
"What a mess of spies!"
In the wailing, laughing and scolding that eased down in an instant, only Long Lan and Han Dona did not make a sound, and only they noticed that Liu Ying's smile was cold.
"Quiet, all quiet!" Nana suddenly straightened up and roared, seeing that everyone was frightened by herself, she was quiet again, the little beauty bit her lip, and her hands gathered the long hair that had been scattered since the morning behind her head, and while starting to braid again, she looked at Liu Ying seriously and said, "You say, I want to listen." ”
Zhi Liangren, Sang Kan and the others, who were originally laughing, seemed to have been poured a basin of cold water, turned their heads to look at the pretending to be a profound willow shadow, looked at each other a few times, lowered their heads and did not speak.
"Okay, then?" said Willow Shadow shrugged indifferently, jumped off the bench with a light step, waved his hand and patted the coat of the gray cloth coat on his body, and began to circle around the people sitting in the group like a story.
"Have you noticed a few problems?"
Liu Ying patted Terra on the shoulder, "First, why is there no trace of a battle on the stone beams that the villagers regard as a barrier, in the caves, or even in the villages?
pressed the head of the peak, but he avoided it in annoyance,
"Second, why is it that there are only traces of fighting near the gorge where Gonzols fled?"
He pointed back to what looked like a burned-out house near the mountain wall of the gorge, "Third, why is there a burned-out house there, and it's obviously the messiest around it?"
Everyone followed his finger to look at that place, Long Lan couldn't help but wonder: "It looks like there is a fire there, but how do you know when it happened? What does this have to do with the spies? As for the messy thing you said," Long Lan was a little speechless, "It will definitely be messy for the villagers to fight the fire together!"
Glancing at Long Lan, Liu Ying didn't answer, and continued: "Fourth, judging from the death status of the villagers, except for a very few, no other civilians or soldiers have resisted, and they are basically killed with a knife, are they so willing to die?"
Long Lan was even more puzzled: "Brother Liu, these villagers were buried by me and Heizi and them together, and you didn't participate in the whole process, how do you know that they didn't resist?"
Liu Ying still ignored him, and continued to pat Qin Can on the shoulder, "Fifth, this village should have been known to the 'Dana Clan' a long time ago, why did they send a small number of people to take it in a hurry before we came, and also arranged a formation trap, who are they waiting for?"
Long Lan was a little uncomfortable, "Brother Liu, didn't you hear what that Gorerose said? They were ordered to gather around here and only occasionally found the village. The lack of manpower means that it is indeed an accident, are you too suspicious?"
At this time, Liu Ying had already walked in a circle in front of Long Lan, he glanced at Long Lan, and reprimanded mercilessly: "Only a boy like you would think that all this is reasonable!"
When Long Lan heard this, she jumped up as if she had been scarred, and said angrily: "Liu Ying, I've put up with you for a long time! If you don't make it clear today, don't blame me for being unkind to you!"
Long Lan herself is outstanding, and she has a majestic spirit and strong affinity. It's not as mysterious and isolated as Liu Ying, and it's been regarded as an idol by young people along the way. At this time, the anger provoked the young people to also stand up, looking at Liu Ying with strange eyes. Even Cha Wenbin, who was resting in the room with his broken hands and being fixed and tied, struggled to move to the window and looked worriedly.
Facing everyone's calm, weird, or unkind eyes, Liu Ying still didn't care, raised her eyebrows and said, "Then I'll explain it to you directly, lest you rookies don't understand." ”
"The Nafeng Haogu in Muwu's mouth has always known about the existence of the 'Divine Messenger', and has been afraid, at least vigilant of the arrival of the 'Divine Messenger'. ”
"Our sudden arrival was reported by the spies among you with the most urgent information, so Nafeng Haogu, or some high-ranking official, ordered that the nearest 'blood-clothed general' Gonzoros be in charge of rushing to intercept and kill. ”
"After calculating the distance, Gonz chose this point of attack, and ordered the spies who had been lurking here for a long time," after a pause, Liu Ying continued, "Let's call him the second spy, and set a fire in the early hours of the morning, and put the stunning drug in the fire, and stunned all the people who came to put out the fire with the smoke. Then lure the enemy in and kill all the unconscious people. ”
Liu Ying looked around, looking at the crowd of people who were in doubt, and said: "In the process of killing people and piling up corpses, a group of soldiers happened to enter the village from the side of the canyon secret passage, and suddenly they met and started an encounter, and the team was completely wiped out, and Gonzols also lost several soldiers. ”
"With the time to set the trap and the opportunity to find a problem and attack, Gonzols had to meet it in a hurry. ”
"In the predicament of losing all his subordinates and being invincible, he tried to deceive, divide, co-opt, and kill, but his strategies failed, and finally fell short, and he was seriously injured and fled. ”
"This is the truth!"
