Chapter 389: Clues
Zilong saw the two lines of footprints, and suddenly thought of such a possibility, and said in his heart: "Could it be that the mountain bandits just now were attracted to the past because Shangshan Muzi and the two of them went up the mountain, so they ignored me?"
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it seemed like this, and at that moment Zilong felt that he should take advantage of this opportunity to find the place of righteousness first, and then decide to stop.
So Zilong took advantage of the cover of this wind and snow to quickly jump to the vicinity of the Taoist temple, found a secluded location, and jumped into the lair of this mountain bandit.
Originally, on the mountain road, it was already very strange that there were no mountain bandits!
After all, although the scale of this mountain bandit in Longkou Mountain is not large, according to Yu Liu, who was located in Jiazhuang, who gave him information before, there are more than 100 people!
But these 100 or so mountain bandits, not only did they not encounter even a single secret whistle on the mountain road, but even in the old nest of the mountain bandits, this Taoist temple standing on Longkou Mountain, there was not a single mountain bandit!
Or to be precise, after Zilong jumped in, he found that this mountain bandit's lair was as silent as death, as if this was actually a dead domain!
Zilong's heart moved, and he couldn't help but look carefully, and sure enough, he found that every mountain bandit who could be found by him died in a strange posture, with his head backwards.
Such a terrible injury was as if the neck had been broken by life.
A master who can have such skills, Zilong is shocked to watch, after all, in Zilong's own opinion, even if he shoots himself, he can't break the necks of all visible people!
After all, the human neck looks fragile, but after all, it is a well-known vital part, so when attacking the neck, this resistance is also the most intense.
If you want to break someone's neck, it is either a peculiar martial art, or the skill of a murderer is very high, at least higher than Zilong.
When Zilong was investigating, he heard a faint sound of talking in front of him, and Zilong listened attentively, but it was the Shangshan Muzi and the border city and the two of them.
At that moment, Zilong Fuzhi was in his heart, hiding his body, hiding in a dead corner, waiting for the two to come over while talking.
And Shangshan Muzi and Kazuo Border City originally came to ask the leader of Longkou Mountain, Iron Hand Ghost, with some questions, but they didn't expect that when they first entered Longkou Mountain, all the mountain bandits were killed in a strange way.
The two of them were also shocked when they saw it, and they wanted to find one or two living mouths, one to ask where the Ming Iron Hand ghost was, and the other to ask what was found here.
But the two of them turned around in this Taoist temple for a long time, and they didn't find any live mouths, and when they walked near Zilong, the border city Yifu said impatiently in the Japanese slave language: "Muzi, now ......"
"In the Central Plains dialect!" Shangshan Muzi said with a serious face, "Although everyone here may be dead!But after all, we are in the hinterland of the Central Plains! The Central Plains people have always been xenophobic, if they hear our voices, most of them will know that we are not from the Central Plains, and then it will be troublesome!"
"Okay!" Kazuo Biancheng naturally knew this truth, but his character was destined to not want to hide through such an identity, but since Kamizen Muzi pointed it out, he could only accept it, and only listened to him at the moment, "These people obviously died at the hands of the great demon, and only the great demon of the Ashikaga family can cause such a strange death......!"
"So we can give up the search here and go straight to the direction of the murderer, and then we can find Ashikaga Yoshizai?"
Kazuo Biancheng's Central Plains dialect is a new learner, and he is not proficient at all.
Therefore, not only is it extremely difficult for him to say at this time, but even Shangshan Muzi and Zilong who is hiding in the shadows sound extremely difficult.
Fortunately, Shangshan Muzi was smart and knew what Kazuo was going to say next, so he simply helped him say it.
"That's what I mean!" Kazuo Biancheng smiled and nodded, he felt that since this good Muzi could understand his own words, he should understand his own heart.
"Although the murderer used the hand of the Great Demon, it is obvious that the power has not yet reached home! If Ashikaga Yoshisai used the hand of the Great Demon, these people will not just have their necks broken and died!"
Shangshan Muzi looked at the dead man not far from his feet, sighed, and said.
Zilong was quite strange in the dark, thinking that this mountain bandit was tortured and killed by a master with extremely high internal skills!
But after listening to such a brief conversation between the two, they knew that these mountain bandits seemed to have died under a strange martial art called the Great Demon Hand, and the one who could use the Great Demon Hand was the Japanese Ashikaga family!
Kamizen Muzi and Kazuo Border City came to the Central Plains and went to Longkou Mountain, and they were also chasing a man named Ashikaga Yoshisai.
"Then Wakasui, what do you mean, this person is not Ashikaga Yoshisai, but if it is not Ashikaga Yoshisai, who can use this great demon hand?" Kazuo Border Castle couldn't help but ask after hearing Kamizen Kiko's words.
"As you said, this person should have something to do with Ashikaga Yoshisai, let's look here first to see if there are any clues, after all, according to the previous information, Xiao Ming, the leader of Longkou Mountain, has seen Ashikaga Yoshisai, maybe there will be some clues left by Ashikaga Yoshisai here!" Kamizen Kiko said, his body turned, and he was ready to continue searching.
But Kazuo Biancheng couldn't help but say: "Ruoshui! Now that there are dead people here, where can there be any clues! Since you also said that the murderer has some relationship with Ashikaga Yoshisai, and Ashikaga Yoshisai has even handed over to him such a big evil hand that only circulates within the Ashikaga family, I want to find this person, I will definitely get some reliable news about Ashikaga Yoshisai!"
"Don't worry! Although this person can be a big demon, but he can't do ninjutsu! Therefore, in the disguise of traces, he is still relatively immature! As long as we use ninjutsu to track it later, it won't be long before we can catch up with this person! And these people have just died, obviously this person has just left, let's look for clues, there is really no, just go and pursue it again!"
After listening to Zilong in the dark, he knew that this Japanese slave actually had any ninjutsu that was good at tracking people, and he couldn't help but be quite curious about such strange ninjutsu!
However, Zilong knew the reason why most of the bandits in Longkou Mountain died, but Zilong still didn't know the whereabouts of Zhengde, which he was most concerned about.
When the two of them chatted far away, Zilong slowly walked out cautiously from the hiding place, and after avoiding the search direction of the two, he began to look for a possible place to detain people.
Fortunately, this Taoist temple is not big, Zilong searched for a while, and finally found an independent cabin, which is suspected to be a place to detain people.
Just as he was about to go forward to inspect, he saw two figures suddenly floating up from the backyard, sweeping towards the bottom of the mountain.
Obviously, these two people have finished looking at it, and there are no more clues, so they go after the murderer!
Originally, the departure of the two of them means that there are no living people on this mountain, and if Zhengde is on this mountain, then most of them will be dead!
Zilong didn't have to continue searching in the mountains.
But Zilong was worried about Zhengde, even if he found the last corpse, he couldn't give up until he confirmed that Zhengde was not there.
Therefore, when the two of them were far away, Zilong pushed away the cabin and walked in!
After entering, Zilong found that the small wooden house was indeed a simple prison cell.
The hut was no more than twenty paces square, but it was divided into two rows, and the middle was made of wood thicker than the mouth of the bowl. At the door of the wooden house, there was a square table, and the two people on the table had their heads broken and died backwards, apparently under the martial arts of the great demon.
Walking inside, Zilong found that there was not a single dead person in the cells on both sides, but there were many ropes left.
Zilong carefully inspected and found that among the eight cells, only one of the ropes in the cell seemed to fall off automatically, and the other ropes were all broken free with the help of others.
Based on all this, Zilong roughly deduced the situation in this cell.
It is likely that after Zhengde and the others were arrested on the mountain last night, they were imprisoned in these eight cells by the mountain bandits of Longkou Mountain, and then left two mountain bandits to guard the square table at the door.
The two mountain bandits couldn't hold back their loneliness, so they drank together.
But one of the prisoners in these eight cells suddenly performed a strange martial art, causing the rope to fall off automatically, and then rushed out of the prison cell with a strange martial art, and killed the two mountain bandits with the hands of the great demon.
After killing the bandits, the man took the key and went to untie the ropes for all the people.
After unraveling, this person took the lead, rushed out and killed all the mountain bandits with the hands of the great demons!
It's just that there is a strange sign here, this person's martial arts are so terrifying, so why didn't he use it when he was captured before?
Moreover, the scene of the mountain bandits being killed is also like experiencing a one-sided massacre, and it is obvious that there is no master who can resist this murderer.
According to the previous servant's statement, even if the martial arts of the iron-handed ghost are not first-class, they don't even have a chance to resist?
Although he found so many questions, Zilong was relieved!
Just because he didn't find Zhengde's body, and judging from the clues in this cell, Zhengde has been rescued!
And the person who saved people was most likely the one who broke free from the shackles with strange martial arts and was able to exert the hand of the great demon.
Thinking of this, Zilong couldn't help but nodded.
Judging from all kinds of signs, although Zhengde is out of the palace, not all of them know about it, and the people in Beijing should have arranged guards!
But before Xia Jiang's guards were all wiped out, Zilong was still strange, but at this time, it was clear that Zhengde's side had already been arranged with a hidden master with strange martial arts.
