The group immediately set off for the official road between Yongqing County and Fushun County.
"Boss, we found the way."
The group passed through the woods and indeed saw a path in the woods. Due to the dry weather and no rain in the area, the axle marks could still be seen.
"There are axle marks."
Following the axle tracks, we soon found the location of the fight.
These people are all skilled in martial arts, and can see the traces of fighting clearly.
"It seems they are not lying."
The leading man ordered, "Find those five bodies."
What if the treasure map is with these five people? Although the probability is very small, so small that it can be ignored.
But as long as there is a clue, they will investigate it thoroughly and will never miss any possibility.
Within a cup of tea, all five bodies were found. Their clothes were intact, and even their swords were left at their sides.
"It seems that group of people are very cautious."
The valuable and useful sword was not taken away.
The five corpses had already rotted away. The people below endured the nausea and stripped off all their clothes. There was no money, let alone anything like a treasure map.
"Boss, all the luggage of that group of people is gone. It is obvious that they were robbed by the group of people from Hui'an Prefecture."
The leading man did not respond. He looked at the five bodies carefully. Enduring the unpleasant smell, he scanned the five bodies back and forth, his eyes narrowed slightly.
Something is wrong!
Seeing this, the deputy asked, "Boss, is there something wrong?"
"Look carefully at the wounds on these people."
After his reminder, the deputy carefully observed the wounds of these people, and indeed found the problem.
"This man's neck was cut by a knife, and the other two were stabbed through the heart. The person who did it was fierce and decisive. It didn't seem like a coincidence, but more like a well-trained killer."
"The other two bodies looked like they were hacked to death, which is consistent with the style of those farmers."
This discovery made everyone's faces become solemn, as this was beyond their expectations.
What does this mean?
This means that there is a master hidden in their team, and when they were killing that group of people just now, they didn't encounter such a person at all.
It can be seen that the people they saw were not all complete, and there was still a fish that slipped through the net, and this fish that slipped through the net had the potential to be a killer.
How could such a person leave so easily when encountering someone from Prince Yun's Mansion? He would definitely...
The leading man felt annoyed when he thought of that possibility.
“Damn it!”
If he had known this, he should not have ordered all these people to be killed, but should have left one or two alive.
The leading man turned his head to look at his subordinates, "Are you sure you killed them all?"
The subordinate also understood. He wanted to say no, but...
The leading man understood when he saw the expressions of his subordinates.
"Go back, just in case there are any fish that slip through the net."
Whether it exists or not, you must confirm it again.
If they really find the fish that has escaped the net, they will have clues to the whereabouts of the treasure map and the journey will not be interrupted.
"yes."
A group of people came and went in a hurry, returning to the forest again.
At the same time, under the cliff, there were two creatures, one big and one small, hanging on the branch of a towering tree. There were signs of breakage at the end of the branch, and the crack became bigger and bigger as time went by.
The person on the branch woke up slowly. After seeing clearly where he was, he did not panic but started to observe.
When he saw his son hanging on the branch at the other end, his eyes sparkled with joy.
He endured the pain and carefully crawled over there. He heard a slight "crackling" sound of breaking and looked towards the crack.
"Crack"... The branch could no longer support his weight and broke completely.
At the moment his body fell, Yang Fu quickly grabbed the branch at the other end to prevent his body from falling rapidly.
After stabilizing his body, Yang Fu struggled to climb back onto the branch and crawled towards his son.
"Yi Er."
Yang Fu placed his hand under his nostrils, and after feeling the faint breath, he felt relieved.
Half an hour later, Yang Fu brought himself and his son down from the tree.
He had many wounds on his body, the most serious of which was in his abdomen.
He tore off his clothes and tied the wound tightly.
This is not a place to stay for long. If that group of people comes looking for them, they will surely die.
He carried the child on his back and walked south.
At noon the next day, the mysterious group of people looking for treasure arrived at the massacre site again.
Any refugee passing by here would subconsciously speed up their pace after seeing the tragic situation here.
A day and a night have passed. Even if there are still people alive, they are probably gone.
"try to find."
At the command, everyone began to search among the corpses.
They searched through the bodies one by one, but found not a single survivor.
The leading man's face was gloomy, "Search forward."
If there are any survivors, they must go south at this time.
Along the way, anyone who was injured and walking alone would be checked by them. As long as the wounds of those people matched the wounds on their swords, they would not be able to escape.
"Boss, there's an injured one in front."
This was the second injured person they saw walking alone.
When the man saw this group of people, he was so scared that his face turned pale and his eyes were full of horror.
That expression said it all; this person knew them.
"take away."
The man knelt down in fear and begged for mercy, "Sir, please spare me. I am just a passer-by, please let me go."
Since he was born until now, he has had countless moments of regret, but the thing he regrets most is that he should not have rested there yesterday.
After seeing that group of people appear, you shouldn't just watch the fun like an idiot.
He really regretted it, very much.
If he had left as soon as he saw those people appear, his wife, children and parents would not have died.
He managed to survive with great difficulty, but he didn't expect this group of people to come back again.
How could I be so unlucky to encounter these demons?
"I will not say a word about what happened yesterday. I am a tight-lipped person and will never gossip about others. Please, sir, let me go."
The leading man frowned, very unhappy that he was not from that village.
It’s not that I believe what he said, but the other person’s accent is different from that of the people in that village yesterday.
"Besides you, did you see any other survivors yesterday?" the deputy asked coldly.
The man shook his head carefully, "No, no more."
"Since it's useless, just kill him." The leading man's voice was cold and ruthless, killing him was as common as drinking water.
The man's eyes widened in fear. Before he died, he said incoherently, "No. If you want to know about them, sir, I know something."
