Chapter 303: Staying at Eternals to Find the Truth (1)
"Haha......" Huazhilin laughed on his back.
He laughed so exaggeratedly that Shen Linfeng was even afraid that he would fall on his back.
The surrounding citizens who watched the excitement also looked at each other, and they couldn't understand how this young man, who was usually personable, followed the devil today.
I don't know how long it took, but the forest finally stopped laughing. He straightened his clothes, and as usual, he was still a dashing and dignified boy in his gestures.
"Brother Shen!" the forest of transformation clenched his fists at Shen Linfeng.
"Why? Aren't your friends on the road with you?"
The friends that Hua Zhilin said were Wen Jing and Xiao Ying.
"I was about to discuss this with you, my friend is seriously injured. Can I rest with you for a few more days?"
"What Brother Shen said, you and I are both brothers, and this mountain city is naturally your home. They can live as long as they want. ”
"Thank you!"
Huazhilin glanced at Ye Yurou behind Shen Linfeng.
"Miss Ye, she ......"
"She walked with me, and I would take her to Ziyun Mountain halfway. ”
"Okay, then we'll wait for you in Nanyang!"
"Hmm!"
The forest of transformation glanced around.
"Xu He, where is Xu He?"
"Hey, here's it!"
Xu He's face was slightly red, and he obviously drank a lot of wine again.
"All the men?"
"It's all here, they're all waiting outside the city!"
"Okay, then ......"
"Wait a minute!" Shen Linfeng suddenly interrupted.
"Brother Shen, what's the matter?"
"I want to go from Jonwon!"
Huazhilin thought for a moment and said: "That Yongyuan Town can be in the southeast of Huashan City, if you go from Yongyuan Town, you have to detour for dozens of miles. ”
Seeing this, Xu He hurriedly said, "I think there is still a certain reason for Brother Shen to choose to leave from Yongyuan Town. ”
"Oh?" Huazhilin looked at Xu He.
"What's the point? Tell me!"
"It's almost time to get to Shen now, although we don't have to go through the forest to get to Nanyang. But there is one place that is very close to the Lost Forest, and if we go there late at night, it will inevitably be a little more dangerous. ”
"It's better for us to follow Brother Shen's intentions and leave Yongyuan Town. When we arrived in the town when it was dark, we could arrange for someone to inform the townspeople and ask them to vacate a place for us to eat and lodge. You know, you're their benefactor. In this way, not only can the brothers have a good rest, but they can also avoid the attack of wild beasts. Although we have walked dozens of miles more, we have enough time and will definitely not delay the trip. ”
"Since you've thought it through, let's go from Yongyuan Town!" said Huazhilin and walked towards the south gate.
Xu He waited for Shen Linfeng to pass by his side, and hurriedly said, "What the hell are you stinky boy doing? Why do you want to leave Yongyuan Town?"
"What the hell can I do? Even if I had, it would be for the good of his Forest!"
Xu He glared at Shen Linfeng fiercely.
"I'm telling you, if anyone asks, don't say that I told you the name of Yongyuan Town. ”
"Don't worry!"
Xu He glanced at Shen Linfeng angrily, and then ran forward quickly.
"Hey!" Shen Linfeng stopped him.
"What's the matter?"
"Thank you just now!"
"Phew, don't fuck me and do this. ”
Yongyuan Town.
The town is surrounded by rolling hills.
Because when Shen Linfeng and the others arrived, it was already completely dark. However, outside the gate of an earthen city, more than a hundred people had already gathered.
Several young and strong men stood at the front of the crowd, holding two blazing torches in their hands.
The leader of these people was an old man with gray hair. He was as thin as wood, his eyes were sunken, and his clothes were covered with patches.
But when he saw the figure of the Forest, the seventy-year-old man began to run forward. In front of him, he knelt on the ground with a "poof". The people behind all looked at the old man and followed suit.
"Old man, please get up!"
The old man led by him was full of tears and looked very excited.
"Today, I am fortunate to see my benefactor again, please accept the old man's worship. ”
"I can't help it!" Huazhilin glanced at Xu He, and several guards stepped forward one after another, and then the people who knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the ground were helped up.
The old man wiped the tears from his face indiscriminately.
"The house has been packed up for you, let's go into the city and rest!"
"Thank you, old man!"
Shen Linfeng's feet were dirt roads that had fallen into disrepair for a long time, and the ground was extremely uneven. Most of the houses on both sides of the road have closed wooden doors, and the inside is also pitch black.
Yu Jianzhong said that the bandits killed all the young people in the town, as well as the girls and children. It's no wonder that these rooms are empty and uninhabited.
Not long after walking forward, the houses on both sides lit with faint candlelight.
"Hua Gongzi, from here all the way forward, it is all for you. ”
Hua Zhilin nodded with a smile, and then ordered Xu He to arrange for his men behind him to enter the house, and strictly ordered them not to damage any of the items in the house.
The entry of more than 100 people immediately made the desolate town lively, and at the same time added a lot of popularity.
The guards of Huashan City moved quickly to support the stove. After a while, the aroma of food wafted over Yongyuan Town.
Kanobayashi also brought out the sake that had been prepared in advance and drank it with the townspeople.
Shen Linfeng drank a few glasses, then slipped out of the courtyard where everyone was eating, carrying a wine gourd.
He walked along the dirt road he had just walked towards the houses with closed wooden doors.
Shen Linfeng drilled into an alley, and he shook the fire fold in his hand. The light of the beating fire illuminates the small alley.
The floor of the alley is paved with the most ordinary bluestone, and over time, the surface has been trampled and polished very smooth and smooth.
Just a few steps away, Shen Linfeng suddenly squatted down.
He stroked the bluestone beneath his feet, which had a dark red color that was incompatible with the stone itself.
"It's blood!"
The town was slaughtered more than a month ago, and it's no surprise that blood can be seen.
Shen Linfeng followed the sprayed blood trail all the way forward, and the light gradually spread to the earthen wall beside him. I saw a deep cut mark on the rough wall.
"Is it a knife?" Shen Linfeng immediately shook his head.
"If it's a knife cut, it's too short. ”
He tentatively probed with his hand, half a finger deep and less than a foot long.
This trace...... It is estimated that only an axe can do it.
Shen Linfeng was very surprised in his heart, could there still be bandits who used axes as weapons?
"Use an axe as a weapon?" Shen Linfeng's eyes suddenly widened.
He picked up the fire fold and walked quickly along the wall, there were many more marks on the whole wall like the one that had been cut just now.
"Could it be...... Could it be them?"
