Xie Feiyang looked at the conclusions reached by his personal soldiers and sighed heavily.
He frowned and looked ahead, feeling uneasy and not wanting to catch up.
Wherever the Shen family passed, there were corpses everywhere. The people behind the Shen family are really unfathomable.
Those remaining palace guards have been chasing the Shen family, and they will probably die soon.
"Boss, there's not a single survivor. They're all dead."
After the bodyguards checked each one of them, they found that none of them could be saved and they were all dead.
Xie Feiyang frowned and cursed in his heart.
It’s so unlucky that this happened just after leaving Menglan City.
It’s not a good idea to chase after the Shen family today.
"Let's go. We shouldn't stay here for long."
Xie Feiyang glanced at the corpses on the ground. Even if he didn't chase the Shen family, he had to leave here quickly.
This place is so close to Menglan City. If they are discovered by the government, they will have no way to defend themselves.
He knows more about the twists and turns in the government than anyone else.
With so many people dying at once, it would be difficult for them to escape if the murderer couldn't be caught.
"Da da da~"
Xie Feiyang squeezed his horse's belly and quickly left this dangerous place with his personal soldiers.
After being some distance away from the corpse, Xie Feiyang slowed down.
He was still somewhat reluctant to get too close to the Shen family, and hoped that the palace guards would be more motivated and allow him to take advantage of any opportunities.
Not long after Xie Feiyang and his group left, the guards from the Ning Mansion and the people from the Killer Hall chased after them.
When the leader of the guards saw the dead people on the ground, he immediately felt that the situation was even more serious.
These people were all wearing night clothes, they must be the group that stole last night.
But they died just as they left the city.
Either the spoils were not distributed evenly or there was internal fighting, which led to the deaths of these people.
Or they would encounter someone who intercepted them and killed them.
It’s just that the number of these people is a bit too small.
These people are not enough to carry the warehouse in Ning Zhifu's mansion, not to mention there are so many pawnshops and money houses.
The head of the guards looked along the corpse towards the official road, and his brows suddenly frowned.
"Go back and tell Lord Ning to have the bailiffs come and take these bodies back."
"Everyone else, follow me and continue chasing."
"The person who intercepted me must have just left not long ago."
The obvious horseshoe prints on the official road clearly showed that these people had left not long ago.
Unfortunately, Menglan City closed the city gates only after they left the city.
Judging from the marks on the official road, this group of people who intercepted the robbers must have just left the city gate not long ago...
The people from the Killer Hall jumped off their horses and looked around the corpse, their brows suddenly furrowed.
"No, this body doesn't look like it was just dead. It must have been dead for at least three hours."
The blood of a newly dead person will not coagulate into dark purple.
The guard leader frowned.
"Let's chase them first, and the main thing is to get the things back first."
It is meaningless to talk about when these people died at this time.
Those are exactly what Magistrate Ning wants.
Only when the things are recovered can they avoid being blamed.
otherwise-----
When the people from the Killer Hall heard this, they immediately got on their horses.
If they can't get their things back, they won't get the rewards.
It's more important to recover the stolen goods...
The chief of the guards sent someone back to report, then he led his troops at full speed and set off in pursuit...
.......
"Boss~"
The guard behind Xie Feiyang frowned and held the horse's belly, moving to Xie Feiyang's side.
"It seems like there's a large group of people running towards us from behind."
The speed at which they ride horses is almost the same as walking. Are they sure they are chasing the Shen family?
Xie Feiyang was slightly stunned and turned to look behind him.
When I looked up, I saw a cloud of dust rising in the distance.
The sound of horse hooves was getting closer, and I could tell there were quite a few of them.
What is this for?
“Oh no!”
Xie Feiyang thought of the corpses of the men in black he had encountered before, and suddenly felt something was wrong.
“Run!”
Could it be that the yamen runners from Menglan City are chasing us?
With so many people chasing them, it seems like they want to pin the blame on them.
Although he is General Fan's man, this identity is not useful in Menglan City.
The prefect of Menglan City has always been at odds with military generals. It would be strange if he would let them go after catching them.
Xie Feiyang raised the whip and hit the horse's butt hard.
The bodyguards followed suit, whipping their horses and galloping away.
They had to run, because the people chasing them looked quite numerous, and there was no way they could defeat them.
Just run away quickly.
It would be best to catch up with the imperial guards in front and let them deal with these officials.
The leader of the guards, who was leading the charge, immediately noticed the dust rising in front of him.
"It's right in front, chase it!"
The leader of the guards gave his horse a hard squeeze and sped up to catch up...
The horses of Xie Feiyang and his group had been running for several days in a row, and they were already a little exhausted.
Naturally, their speed could not match that of the fat and strong horses ridden by the guard leaders.
In less than a cup of tea, the head of the guards had already caught up with Xie Feiyang and his group.
"The person in front, stop!"
"If you don't stop, you'll be shot to death with arrows!"
As soon as the guard leader finished speaking, the man from the Killer Hall next to him shot a dart at the horse's butt in front.
The horse was hit by a dart on its butt and immediately raised its hooves and let out a shrill scream.
