Chapter 606 Everyone is Gone
Su Ying got off her horse and went forward to check the ruins. She then walked around the area but did not see any guards.
She led the horse and walked slowly inside. Not long after she walked in, she could see a lot of dried blood on the ground, as well as many corpses that had decayed into bones or were in the process of decaying.
Su Ying took out a mask and put it on, then moved closer to look at the clothes on the corpses.
If someone is exiled here, their clothes will basically not be well dressed, and there will be old stains on their robes. But if someone comes here with a purpose, their clothes will not be worse than those of the exiled prisoners.
She discovered that many of the fresh corpses were wearing cleaner clothes, made of better materials. Several people even wore the same robes. Those who wore uniforms must have been organized.
Su Ying looked around and continued walking forward.
It is the cold winter season now. Although the temperature in the northern wilderness is higher than that in the capital, it is still freezing cold. Ordinary people would never come out at this time, but she found a row of footprints in front of her.
Su Ying flicked the whip and increased the speed. She saw the gate of Tiger Camp from afar before dark.
When Su Ying walked in, she saw that the formation outside the Tiger Camp’s gate had been destroyed.
This formation was originally set up by Xiao Jin and his men. It can change into several formations in total, but now the entire area outside the door has been burned to ashes.
Su Ying turned over, dismounted, and walked in.
When she stepped into that area, a grayish-white mist spread around her.
The visibility in front of my eyes was instantly reduced to less than one meter, and there was fog all around and nothing could be seen clearly.
Su Ying took out the electric baton on her body, and suddenly a sharp sound of breaking air came from behind her.
The horse behind her cried out in pain, and a stream of blood spurted onto Su Ying's face.
Su Ying quickly stepped back, and as soon as she moved, she heard the sound of a horse falling to the ground, and the smell of blood spread instantly.
She clenched the electric baton in her hand, and suddenly the sound of breaking air was heard again. She turned around and hit back, waving the electric baton in her hand.
With a loud "bang", the sound of the sharp weapon colliding with the electric baton seemed particularly harsh in the quiet air.
Su Ying took out the signal barrel on her body and threw it into the sky. The signal barrel exploded in the air, and the light yellow smoke was blown away by the wind in a short time.
The sound of breaking through the air was heard again, and the attack on Su Ying still did not stop.
The signal barrel she threw out just now was the communication signal they had agreed upon. If Mengzi and the others saw the signal barrel, they would definitely stop the attack, but the other side did not.
This proves that the people who attacked her were not from the Tiger Camp at all!
Su Ying's heart sank as someone had rearranged a formation outside the Tiger Camp.
She took out two electric batons. Xiao Jin said that no matter what kind of formation it was, as long as the core of the formation was destroyed, the formation would collapse on its own.
Su Ying connected the two electric batons together and then rotated them quickly.
During the rapid rotation, dazzling electric sparks were thrown in the air.
The sound of breaking air rang out again, and more frequently than before.
The electric baton swung by Su Ying formed a golden bell under its rapid rotation, completely protecting Su Ying.
In the fog, the sounds of "bang bang bang" from electric batons and sharp weapons hitting each other could be heard.
This time, after colliding with the electric baton, the sharp weapons were not cut off by the electric baton, but were quickly bounced back as if they had touched a spring.
The sound of the wind whistled back and forth in the fog.
Soon, Su Ying heard the sounds of "uh, uh". She identified the location of the sound and was able to draw a Bagua formation.
"One, two, three, four... eight!"
"Bang!" With a loud noise, the fog in front of eyes seemed to be cleared away by an invisible hand, and the vision gradually became clear.
The electric baton in Su Ying's hand slowly stopped. She was still standing where she came from, but the difference was that there was a corpse lying in the other eight directions centered on her, a total of eight corpses.
They are the key to this formation.
Su Ying walked up to the corpses. They were all wearing white clothes, which almost blended in with the snow on the ground. But now, the white was stained with a glaring blood color.
Su Ying took out a dagger and killed them all, but she didn't find any useful clues on them.
After the fog cleared, the gate of Tiger Camp appeared before our eyes.
This door was originally built before they went to Tiankui City. In order to make the door more solid, Qiao Yang brought back a lot of rocks from the distant mountains.
The door looked relatively intact, but the hard rocks were covered with bloodstains that had turned dark black, and the wooden door was also covered with wounds.
Su Ying could imagine what kind of fierce battle had taken place here at that time.
She walked in through the broken wooden door. It was so quiet that the only sound was Su Ying's footsteps. There was no one inside.
She remembered that in the middle of the year, Chu Yun had mentioned in the news he sent her that Uncle Meng was going to marry a daughter-in-law. At that time, they all went to Tiger Camp to attend the wedding banquet. Because there were too many people, there was no way to sit inside the house, so everyone set up tables in the aisle. The scene was extremely lively.
Although Su Ying did not see it with her own eyes, she could imagine how happy everyone was at that time.
But it wasn't long before there was no one left in the Tiger Camp.
The cold air made Su Ying's cheeks red, but no matter how cold the weather was, it could not extinguish the fire burning in her heart.
Su Ying searched the entire Tiger Camp but did not find a familiar figure.
She didn't leave in a hurry, but went to Hu Wei's former house and simply picked a room to live in.
Winter nights always come faster, and it was dark as soon as she walked into the house.
Su Ying took out a roast chicken and a big leg of lamb from the space. After lighting the fire, she put the food on the fire to heat it up. Although the things would not go bad if they were stored in the space, they were already cold when they were put in. For people like these, they would taste better when they were hot.
Su Ying sat cross-legged in the hall alone, with only the yellowish light from the fire in front of her illuminating the room.
The entire Tiger Camp was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. The only sound left was the whistling of the cold wind, which made people shudder in the dark night.
The aroma of barbecue gradually filled the house.
Su Ying picked up the leg of lamb and took a bite. After traveling for so many days, today was the day she had been on the ground the longest.
After eating and drinking, Su Ying threw the lamb leg bone out of the house, wiped her mouth, lay down beside the fire, and slowly closed her eyes.
As the night deepened, dark clouds covered the moon and the sky was dark.
With a "rustle", the door was blown open by a gust of cold wind, causing the fire to shake violently.
Suddenly, a figure rushed in from outside the house like a sharp sword and rushed straight towards Su Ying.
