Under the moonlight, four brown belt killers galloped on the undulating wilderness path, Gu Shenwei and the lotus girl in front, wild horses and flowing flowers behind, more than 20 steps apart, the path came and went, and the general direction was still vaguely recognizable.

They had already rushed dozens of miles ahead of the team, and when the sky was white, they finally saw a wisp of smoke rising from the side of the road.

The teenagers jumped off the horse, there was no need to make special arrangements, they all knew their position, the lotus girl walked in the front, Gu Shenwei and the wild horse were a few steps behind, guarding the left and right sides, and Liuhua held an arm crossbow behind the hall.

The people in the camp seemed to be sleeping soundly, and there was not even a single sentry.

There was a familiar smell of Gu Shen, a smell that had been deeply imprinted in his mind after he left countless corpses on the edge of the cliff of Jinpeng Castle.

The campfire was half-extinguished, and there were more than fifty corpses inside and outside the tent, and the blood had just clotted not long ago.

This scene was beyond Gu Shenwei's guess, he knew that there must be bandits waiting ahead, but he didn't expect it to be a group of dead bandits.

The morning sun rises, and the last wisps of smoke rise from the fire in the middle of the camp.

"You two go back and let everyone be on guard, and we'll stay here. "Gu Shenwei gives orders, and there is no room for careful thinking at this moment.

The wild horse and the lotus girl retrieved their horses and galloped away.

"Within ten paces of me. Gu Shenwei said to Liuhua, so that the two people could take care of each other, and he was not in the best range of Liuhua.

Liuhua nodded, lowered her crossbow, and looked into the distance, the faceless face was silent.

Only half an hour later, Mustang came back on horseback alone, and it seemed to bring bad news.

Mustang beckoned to the two and motioned for them to come with him.

Gu Shenwei believed him, so he got on the horse separately from Liuhua and ran back the way he came.

If this was a conspiracy, there must have been something wrong somewhere, and Gu Shenwei couldn't figure it out, so he gave up thinking about torturing people, looked at the back of the wild horse, and didn't understand what was the use of these teenagers voluntarily cutting off half of their tongues.

Three bodies lay miles down the road, and the owner's horses were grazing in the nearby wasteland.

All of them were the swordsmen of the Meng family, and they were the three people who Gu Shenwei thought were better at martial arts after observation, a large amount of blood flowed out of their chests and abdomen, and they had not yet completely coagulated, they must have followed behind the brown belt killer and were ambushed here.

Gu Shenwei stood up and looked at the way he came, and the person who attacked him was unknown, which made him even more worried.

Near noon, the two teams caught up, and the crowd hula surrounded them, and Qingnu almost fainted, holding a handyman, and said repeatedly, "This is, this is ......"

"This is no ordinary bandit. Gu Shenwei told everyone that he hadn't seen bandits a few times, but these corpses showed fixed techniques, which were by no means something that bandits could do.

"You killed the three of them, it's you, you...... You have been ......" Meng Mingshi pointed at Huan Nu and hid behind the two swordsmen, his eyes were full of fear and hatred, indicating that he had actually known Huan Nu all along.

If Meng Wugongzi wanted to frame himself in this way, it would be too stupid, Gu Shenwei thought to himself, "I didn't kill him, but the three of them wanted to kill me." ”

"Nonsense! Slander! Nobody wants to kill you, you, you want to kill me, yes, you definitely want to assassinate me. ”

Meng Wugongzi was incoherent, but his family's swordsman reacted quickly, pulling out knives of different lengths together, just waiting for the master's order, on the other side, several teenagers also pulled out narrow knives, Shangguan Ru provoked, "What if I want to kill you?

Meng Wugongzi probably felt that his neck really couldn't be touched, raised his hand to cover it, and retreated again and again, "This is a conspiracy! This is an assassination! The Shangguan family is powerful, and my Meng family is not easy to bully." ”

The fire on both sides was on the verge of breaking out, and the Flag Killer had been squatting on the ground to check the corpse, and then stood up, "Put down the knife, these three dead people have nothing to do with Jinpeng Castle, you see these wounds, they are not our style, and they don't look like knife wounds." ”

Meng Wugongzi couldn't see anything, and still stared at Shangguan Ru vigilantly, but he believed in the flag killer, "It's not a knife, the intestines are all flowing out." ”

The three corpses were disemboweled, and the flesh was turned open from chest to abdomen, and except for a few people from Jinpeng Castle, no one else dared to look at it.

This is indeed not a knife wound, it seems to be caused by some kind of weapon that is blunt than a knife, Gu Shenwei couldn't think of a reason, and the flag killer didn't say anything.

"Don't scatter anymore, hurry up, whoever runs around again will bear the consequences. The Flag Killer gave an order with a cold face, his eyes fixed on Gu Shenwei.

"Apologize, we are two teams, I am the leader of the guards here, I said let's go our separate ways, and no one should get in the way of anyone. ”

The Flag Killer's face turned pale, and Qing Nu shouted outside the crowd, "No, no, I'm the big boss, I said let's go together, the more people, the better." ”

Gu Shenwei clenched the knife and raised his head, "The big boss can take the goods with the Meng family, and the guards will follow me, we will not unite with those with evil intentions." ”

The other six teenagers stood behind the leader in unison.

"Who has a ghost fetus?" Meng Wugongzi shouted through a few swordsmen.

Gu Shenwei pointed forward, "A few miles away, there is a camp, more than fifty people are waiting to be robbed, but they are all dead, and the way of death is the same as these three people, Fifth Prince, how are you going to explain this?"

"Are they all dead?" Meng Mingshi asked blankly, and then reacted, "A group of robbers, what does it matter to me whether they die or not?"

"Let's talk about it, what kind of cargo are your camels carrying?"

Gu Shenwei planned to pierce the window paper, he guessed that Meng Wugongzi lured everyone to take this road, just to arrange a group of fake bandits to rob, the real purpose was to kill Huan Nu, and probably wanted to scare Shangguan Ru, the bandits would rob the teams of the two families at the same time, so that they could hide people's eyes and ears, and Jinpeng Fort would never be too concerned with the Meng family because of a brown belt killer.

The knife man who was shot dead yesterday was nothing more than a trick.

But there was interference from outsiders who didn't know the origin, and all the people arranged by Meng Mingshi died, if you want to say that this is helping, Gu Shenwei doesn't believe it.

Meng Mingshi is not the kind of person who can immediately recognize the situation, and his mouth is still tough, "You don't have to take care of the goods of the pack, what kind of thing are you, ask and ask?"

Gu Shenwei was "nothing", but there were people with much higher status behind him, Shangguan Ru and Shangguan Yu jumped out of the ground, ran to the side of the Meng family's camels, cut the ropes with a knife, and the wooden box fell, revealing the stones inside, and several camels were carrying these things.

The two girls walked back with knives, their eyes were murderous, and Shangguan Ru spoke, "The Meng family is really good at doing business, and they can even sell bricks and tiles for money." ”

Meng Mingshi's face turned pale for a while, he did hire a group of wandering swordsmen to pretend to be bandits, and he didn't want to lose real money, so he brought dozens of camel stones.

The swordsmen of the Meng family surrounded the little master, Shangguan Ru and Shangguan Yu swung their narrow knives, their alertness may not be as good as the apprentices of Dongbao, but the knife skills are guided by the top killers, and they will only be stronger than the brown belt killers.

"Wait. Gu Shenwei didn't want to cause infighting at this time, "The fifth prince is joking, I can not be serious." ”

"Yes, yes. Meng Mingshi shouted in the crowd, no one could see him, only heard a frightened voice, "I'm joking, Shigongzi, I don't want to kill you, move your fingers, and my father and mother can't spare me." ”

There was a little less indifference and arrogance in the eyes of the Flag Killer, "In that case, what is the leader going to do?"

"The two teams are united, and all the swordsmen are assigned by me. Gu Shenwei threw out his plan.

"I just carry the flag. The Flag Killer stepped aside, feeling that he no longer needed to get involved, and returned the decision to Meng Wugongzi.

Meng Mingshi peeked at Huan Nu through the human wall, with a look of distrust.

"If you move a finger, the stone castle will not spare me. Gu Shenwei spread his hands, he was telling the truth, no matter what the fifth son of the Meng family did, a brown belt killer was not qualified to retaliate, at most he could intimidate.

Meng Mingshi didn't think of the advantages brought by his identity, and hesitated for a while, "The swordsman is assigned by you, but you must swear to guarantee my safety." ”

"I swear to guarantee the safety of Meng Wugongzi, if I violate this oath, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed. ”

Swear this kind of thing, Gu Shenwei is almost easy.

The two teams were reunited, and the first thing was to throw away all the wooden boxes containing stones, and the camels of the Meng family shared the gifts of the Shangguan family, and everyone, try to arrange rides.

Then, the team camped on the spot, and Gu Shenwei decided not to move forward for any day, and assigned the swordsmen to ride fast horses to explore the road, and sent five people to the front and rear roads, and agreed to return before dark, if the rear was safe, he still wanted to return to the original road.

Meng Wugongzi admitted that the knife man who was hit by the arrow yesterday was a bitter ploy arranged by him, which shows that the road behind may not have been cut off by the bandits.

If it was Shangguan Ru's idea, she would go wherever there were bandits, but she still followed the identity of an ordinary swordsman and did not argue with the leader.

Gu Shenwei didn't like the current situation, he didn't know who the enemy was or what his purpose was, and he had to guard against this being another bitter trick of Meng Mingshi, sacrificing dozens of lives was probably not a big deal for the Meng family.

He likes to take the initiative to attack, but at this time he can only wait, there are ten sons in his team, Shangguan Ru, no matter how critical the situation is, if she is injured, he will not be able to return to the fort to explain.

The camel driver secretly arranged by Jinpeng Fort looked like a knowledgeable killer, and for the sake of safety, Gu Shenwei still ordered the lotus girl to follow Shangguan Ru, and nothing else, only responsible for the safety of the tenth son.

As for Meng Mingshi, the swordsmen of the Meng family will protect him, even if he suffers a little, it is nothing.

If the bandit's target was the twenty chests of gold and silver, the matter would be simple, and the limit he set was to give up his fortune and protect the people.

The swordsmen who had gone to the front to explore the way returned on time, reporting that there was nothing unusual within a few dozen miles, and the five swordsmen saw the slaughtered camp and treated the young leader with much more respect.

The swordsman who went to the rear to explore the path was not seen until midnight, and a horse did not come back alone.

Everyone didn't sleep, and a swordsman led the horse back to the camp, and Qingnu and Meng Mingshi glanced at it, and almost fainted at the same time.

A human head was tied to the horse's back, and a foot was tucked into each of the horses' shoes, and the body was completely gone.

Some people want them to move on, but Gu Shenwei hesitates in his heart.
