Chapter 112 [Knowing People, Knowing Faces, Not Knowing Hearts]
Bai Shi frowned slightly, and in the condensation of his gaze, suddenly, he saw that there seemed to be some footprints on this grass, and looking at the appearance of these footprints, he should have walked in a hurry.
Shiraishi followed the hurried footprints and walked forward step by step, and in Yunyan's tense atmosphere, he finally stopped in front of a jungle on the mountainside.
"The footprints disappear from here. ”
Bai Shi frowned slightly, and when he looked at this jungle, he murmured in his heart, he unfolded his divine sense again, and in this divine sense visit, he could sense that there was a cave behind this jungle, and in this cave, there seemed to be a dead person.
Stunned, Shiraishi cut through the jungle and cautiously entered the cave.
This cave is extremely hidden, the entrance of the cave is not big, just enough for two people to enter at the same time, this hole is not too deep, light a bonfire, when Baishi and Yunyan advanced for more than twenty meters, it has come to the end, and what appeared in their eyes at this moment is the body of a child, and the child's death is exactly the same as the woman's corpse that Baishi saw before.
"If I'm not mistaken, this kid is the one you said you said earlier. ”
Shiraishi looked at the child's corpse and said softly.
Yun Yan's expression was extremely complicated, she stared at the child's corpse, and a wave of sadness surged again. Walking slowly, she stretched out her trembling hands and gently closed the child's eyes.
After holding a bonfire and scanning the cave, it is not difficult to find that in some dark corners of the cave, there are some white skeletons, and even some skeletons have been reduced to pieces......
"Did you know there was this cave before?" Shiraishi withdrew his gaze and cast it on Yunyan.
Yun Yan shook her head, took a deep breath, and a foul smell and bloody smell suddenly pierced her nostrils, causing her face to suddenly appear uncomfortable, and replied, "Before this, I had no idea that this cave existed. ”
Shiraishi roughly deduced that those who had become skeletons were not killed by the same person. After observing it again and again, he met Yunyan's words and set his eyes on the child's body again, at this moment, he suddenly noticed that the child's clenched fist was slightly opened, and there seemed to be a red thread between his fingers.
Baishi squatted down, carefully opened the child's fist, and saw a sign tied with a red thread, this brand is by no means the kind of token that the patriarch gave to Baishi today, this token looks more gorgeous than Baishi's token, with a Lingzi engraved on it, and below this Lingzi, there is also an 'ancient' word that is not too big!
After looking at it for a moment, Shiraishi handed the card to Yun Yan and asked her to identify it.
Yun Yan took the token, and her expression became solemn again, but she said as if she was silent: "This is the Elder Token in our Yunhe Tribe! ”
Bai Shi smiled indifferently and said, "Then I probably know who killed them." ”
"This is absolutely impossible!" As Bai Shi's words fell, Yun Yan said, "Elder Gu Yun will never kill them. ”
Bai Shi frowned, he didn't expect that Gu Yun's name would give Yun Yan such a strong reaction.
"You said Gu Yun couldn't have killed them?" Shiraishi wondered.
Yun Yan didn't want to believe what she saw, but she still tried her best to explain to Bai Shi: "Elder Gu Yun is well-known for his kindness in our Yunhe tribe, treating the people of the tribe like relatives, and never discriminating. Usually he is even more helpful, everyone in the Yunhe tribe respects him as if he respects the patriarch, how can he kill them?"
Hearing Yunyan's words, Bai Shi suddenly thought that when the ceremony was held today, in addition to the two elders Er Soul and Jing Hong, there was also the white-haired old man who was sandwiched between them, and was very low-key.
"I don't know my heart. We don't need to come to such conclusions now, when he has the chance, everything will be revealed. You and I will treat you and I as if we don't know about today's events, until the time is ripe. It's not too late, after all, judging from the current situation, if this matter gets out, it won't be good for you or me......"
Bai Shi knew very well that if it was really like what Yun Yan said, Gu Yun was deeply popular in this Yunhe tribe, and if he said this, not to mention that he could not gain the trust of others, it might also attract the dissatisfaction of the people of the tribe, and it would be better to investigate this matter secretly.
Judging from the current situation, Yunyan really didn't know how to deal with it, so she could only agree to Baishi, walk out of the cave with Baishi, and go back to the Yunhe tribe.
......
After returning to the Yunhe tribe, Baishi quickly fell asleep, but Yunyan couldn't fall asleep for a long time, and what happened today made her unwilling to believe it, and it wasn't until dawn that she took a nap in a daze.
Early in the morning, when the sun penetrated the clouds again and sprinkled on the wooden house, the heavy white stone finally opened his eyes slowly, breathed fresh air, and welcomed the arrival of a new day.
The people of the Yunhe tribe basically got up early, and at this moment they were already coming and going. Even Lu Ke, who was drunk last night, was holding a bow and arrows at this time, and was about to go out, when he saw Shiraishi push open the wooden door, he paused.
"You're up. Luke said with a smile.
Bai Shi nodded and said, "Uncle Lu is preparing like this, are you going there?"
Lu Ke smiled with relief and said, "Hey, just call me Brother Lu." Uncle Lu is a little uncomfortable......"
Bai Shi smiled stiffly and replied, "Yunyan calls you Uncle Lu, I am the same age as her, so it is natural to call you Uncle." ”
Hearing Bai Shi's words, Lu Ke shrugged his body and said, "Since that's the case, then let it be." Today, when I was standing guard in the tribe, I went this time, that is, to go to the vein, and a deacon was replaced. ”
When Bai Shi heard this, he thought of the four strong men he saw in the ore vein yesterday, and compared to those strong men, Luke's body did look a little weak. Not only that, listening to Lu Ke's words, Bai Shi also knew that those four strong men were the four deacons in the Cloud Crane Tribe. In this way, as far as Shiraishi knows, there are only three deacons that he has not seen.
"By the way, someone just sent a message from the patriarch, saying that he asked you to go to the patriarch. As he left, Luke said.
Watching Luke's departure, Shiraishi paused in place for a moment, then washed up and walked towards the patriarch's residence.
The door of the patriarch's room was still ajar, as if the door would never be completely closed, Shiraishi stood outside the door, and after knocking on the door twice, the patriarch's voice came from the room, signaling for him to enter.
Bai Shi walked in, the patriarch looked out of the window at the moment, not knowing what he was observing, before Bai Shi could speak, he stood with his hands in his hands, and the voice of vicissitudes of life flashed: "Yesterday's test, why didn't you kill Erhai?"
Bai Shi's body was stunned, and he didn't know what the patriarch was thinking about, and after thinking for a moment, he replied: "You know that I won't kill Erhai, so your closed eyes haven't opened for a long time, as if you don't care."
And since you already know that I won't kill Erhai, why do you bother to ask why?"
Hearing this, the patriarch's body was slightly stunned, turned his head, looked at Bai Shi, showed a kind smile, and said, "You seem to know what I am thinking." ”
Bai Shi shook his head, took two steps forward, looked at the patriarch's old face, and said, "I don't know what you're thinking, so I won't answer rashly." Tell me, what is the matter with me......"
The patriarch smiled indifferently and said, "You are really not an ordinary person, it seems that your injuries are much better than yesterday." You, come with me......"
After speaking, the patriarch took the staff and walked out of the room, Baishi followed his steps, jumped over several wooden houses together, and walked forward about fifty meters, Baishi could smell it, and a medicinal fragrance diffused in the void came to his face.
Shiraishi set his eyes on the location of a wooden house, there was a chimney on the roof of this wooden house, and there was a trace of white mist emitting from the chimney, and in front of the wooden house were several stone jars, which contained some things, and if you looked closely, it was not difficult to find that there were some crushed medicinal herbs.
"Grandma's, failed again!"
At this moment, the door of the wooden house was suddenly pushed open by a person, and at the same time as a puff of white smoke came out, a man with unkempt hair and black smoke on his face obscured his facial features, gasping for breath and scolding.
