Chapter 60: The Town of the Huddle
Two or three hours later, Kong Yu and his party came down from Eagle Mountain.
Behind them, the Eagle Mountain, accompanied by the strange cries of crows and vultures, and thick black smoke rose from the top of the mountain, like a black dragon rising into the sky.
"Ahem~" The stench also seemed to permeate the entire mountain with the burning of corpses.
At the top of Eagle Mountain, Kong Zhu had already revealed some things about the Blood God Sect to Cao Tianhong.
Cao Tianhong gave an order after going down the mountain, and immediately, a group of hunters who were still pale after the burning of the corpses rode their horses and left quickly, each divided into teams of three to five people, and went to the nearby villages and towns to check the situation.
The news about the Blood God Sect that he learned from Kong Zhu really shocked Cao Tianhong, although he was only in the stage of forging bones and completing the marrow training, but because of his status as a county lieutenant of the imperial court, he knew even more information than Kong Zhu.
After arranging those catches, Cao Tianhong decided to return to Liangcheng first to make some preparations, hoping that Kong Capture could go with him, but Kong Capture did not agree.
Before he could guarantee the safety of his family, he would definitely not choose to return to South Wind City.
Nanfeng City is a county town, not only with six gates, but also with a yamen and an army of thousands of people, in addition to these, there are also some sects' outer gate martial arts halls, and many Jianghu guests who want to make a name for themselves.
Among them, there are countless masters.
If there is chaos in the South Wind City, it will be a big mess.
Kong Zhu is just a small bronze medallion, to be honest, there is really one more, one less, no less.
Liangcheng is different, there are few masters, few troops, not to mention that his family is still here, if he really encounters danger, Kong Zhu will regret it.
Kong Yu decided to stay in Liangcheng for the time being, but now Liangcheng is relatively safe, and he plans to use Eagle Mountain as the boundary to explore in the direction away from Liangcheng, and then return to Liangcheng depending on the situation.
From Cao Tianhong, Kong Yu obtained a map of the imperial court, and the range was about 500 miles near Liangcheng, which was very detailed, and every small village was marked with records.
Holding the map, Kong Zhu and Cao Tianhong and others separated.
In the blink of an eye, three days have passed.
In the evening, the sky was dark, and a few stars were faintly appearing in the sky, and the autumn wind was blowing coldly, and there were fluttering leaves everywhere.
Kong Yu rode his horse to a low mountain, there was no strange wood mountain in front of him, and he saw a sparkling light in the distance.
"Ning'an Town. ”
This is the information that Kong Yu got from the map, although this Ning'an town is located in a remote area, it is a large town with a resident population of more than 10,000.
As the sky grew darker and darker, Kong Yu urged his horse to go ahead, and after walking long, he heard the sound of wild beasts biting and chewing in front of the road.
Kong Yu didn't care, and generally these sounds were automatically filtered out when he heard them.
Continuing forward, there were a few beasts feasting on the side of the road, in addition to the horse corpse, Kong Yu suddenly saw a section of human arms, and couldn't help but show light skills to jump over, and kicked these beasts to death with several kicks in a row, before squatting down to check.
Most of the dead man had been eaten, and his head was bloody. The clothes were in tatters, but Kong Zhu still saw that the deceased's clothes were soap suits for catching fast.
In other words, the deceased was a catcher.
Kong Hunt pulled the corpse twice, and took out a blood-soaked and tattered letter from his arms, which seemed to be faintly stamped with some official seal.
"Anzhen... Yangguan... Liangcheng..."
He recognized a few words in front of him, and guessed that it should be a letter sent by Ning'an Town to Liangcheng.
Kong Zhu uncovered the tattered clothes on the chest of the corpse, and his eyes swept away, and he couldn't help but condense.
The heart is gone!
The technique was very rough, but it felt familiar to him.
Kong Yu stood up and looked at Ning'an Town, where the lights flickered, took a deep breath, and said secretly in his heart,
"This Ning'an Town, I'm afraid it won't be peaceful at this moment!"
Standing in place for a moment, Kong Yu got on his horse and walked in the direction of Ning'an Town.
Approaching Ning'an Town, he could already hear the voices of some of the townspeople talking.
"In the past few days, those wicked people have come to harass them every night, and at least dozens of young men have died each time! We can't sit still!"
"However, you can't leave the town, yesterday the convoy didn't listen to the advice, and this morning people saw crows circling and went to check, what do you say, hundreds of people were killed!"
"Those wicked people are all martial arts masters, Zhang Daxia can only barely deal with two, Lord Yang, they all say that these wicked people are some kind of demons, I think they are not human at all, they actually suck the hearts of living people!"
“...”
Da Da ~ Da Da ~ In the conversation of the people on duty, the sound of horses' hooves gradually became clear.
"Who?" said everyone who heard the voice, nervous, clutching the weapon in their hands.
A moment later, a horse galloped in front of everyone.
...
At night, in the city of South Wind, a caravan had just left the city, and several soldiers were closing the city gates.
Da Da ~ Da Da ~ On the official road, a fast horse galloped, and on the horse's back sat a bronze medallion with six doors, his face was tired, his lips were chapped, and he could not help but look anxious when he saw the city gate about to close from a distance.
Maybe give him a dozen or twenty more breaths, and he will be able to reach the city gate, but now he will definitely not be able to catch up.
"I am the bronze envoy of the six doors!
Seeing that the city gate was already half closed, the man on horseback roared and shouted several times, but the soldiers didn't seem to hear it, and directly closed the city gate.
According to the rules of the South Wind City, the city gate is closed, and unless there is a warrant from the chief envoy of the six gates or the county guard, it can only be opened until the fifth watch of the next day.
The bronze medal made a heavy sigh of helplessness, and the speed of the horses under the crotch seemed to slow down.
Suddenly, there was a squeak, and the gates, which had been completely closed, opened again.
The bronze medallion made the horse pass through the city gate, and the speed did not slow down in the slightest, and swept like the wind, and there seemed to be a hoarse "thank you" in the air that drifted into the ears of several soldiers.
There were still many pedestrians on the street, and the bronze medallion made all the way shouting, urging the horses all the way to gallop, and came directly to the six gates.
Dismounted, the bronze medal made even light work in the six doors,
"Meet the Commander-in-Chief!" the bronze envoy saw the six doors of the Commander-in-Chief Cover Liu, and then opened his mouth and said in a hoarse voice,
"My subordinates inspected the seven villages in the mountains of Heqiao on the bank of the West River, and three villages have been slaughtered, more than 3,000 people, but there is no one left alive!"
"Okay, I know about it. ”
Gai Ziliu sat on the top seat, his face was solemn and gloomy, and there were several silver medal envoys with also ugly faces sitting next to his hands.
The bronze medallion envoy stepped back to rest, and the atmosphere in the hall was very oppressive.
"In the past few days, according to the news brought back by many bronze medals, the Blood God Sect has slaughtered more than a dozen villages and brutally murdered thousands of people!
A bearded silver medallion made his face dissatisfied, and said loudly, spitting on the stars.
