Chapter 3030 Taihe Academy
After leaving the city gate, there were no red lanterns on the roadside and the light suddenly dimmed.
The silvery moonlight illuminated the road leading to Taowu Village for Su Yan. For some reason, the road seemed especially long tonight.
Su Yan is not afraid of corpses or ghosts, and is even less afraid of night roads, but today is a little unusual.
As a coroner, Su Yan is extremely sensitive to sounds and smells. On the way home, Su Yan always hears some discordant sounds, as if someone is following her.
Thinking of Chu Feng’s words, although she didn’t understand why the people around her were hostile to her, it was a fact, so it was better to be careful.
Su Yan looked around and his eyes fell on the woods not far away.
The forest is densely wooded, and local residents usually don't allow their children to enter.
Su Yan walked towards the woods.
When her back completely disappeared into the forest, several people who looked like ordinary people came out.
They looked at each other and followed closely.
It doesn't take much effort to deal with a little girl. The reason she followed me until now is simply because she doesn't want to cause trouble in the city. Now that she has walked into the woods by herself, that's perfect.
There were three people in total following Su Yan. They had a knife across their waists and walked lightly. They were all martial artists.
After entering the forest, we can see several forked roads. One of the people's hair is wrapped in rags sewn together. He went forward to check it out and his face was not good. "There are traces of people passing through several roads. This girl is playing tricks on us."
The other two drew their machetes and said, "Search separately, and chop the person down when we find him!"
The three of them split into three groups and headed deeper into the forest.
The colorful moon shadow barely passed through the gaps in the tree canopy, and the branches swayed gently in the wind. The three of them slowed down their pace and observed their surroundings intently.
The rag man walked the fastest, holding a machete in both hands, his narrow eyes moving faster and faster.
This girl has offended the noble without knowing it. If you kill her mouth and go back to collect the reward, you can -
The rag man seemed to be tripped by something, his feet slipped, and he fell straight down. Before he could even scream, he was hit hard on the forehead with a stone.
Not far away, the shorter man heard a sharp scream.
The sound was sharp and thin. As soon as the call came out, the sparrows squatting on the treetops flapped their wings and flew up.
The man cursed under his breath, put away his sword, and walked out angrily.
The employer was not very generous. Each time someone did something, they would get more. He originally wanted to get more money so that he could live happily.
He walked out cursing, but when he reached the fork in the road, he didn't see the other two brothers.
Just as he was wondering, he suddenly felt a breeze behind him. He immediately realized something was wrong, but before he could turn around, a stone hit him hard on the back of his neck.
Seeing the man in front of him collapse to the ground, Su Yan breathed a sigh of relief.
She had learned some Kung Fu from Su Mao, and also understood the structure of the human body, so her moves were steady, accurate and ruthless. Su Yan was not worried that he would wake up, but only worried that he would not wake up.
She dragged the man into the trap and threw him in. The trap was dug by the nearby residents to catch wild game. A few days ago, some naughty children sneaked into the woods and expanded the trap. The children were beaten up, but no one was willing to take care of the trap.
Su Yan happened to hear someone mention it, and just now he remembered it, so he tried to look for it.
It doesn’t matter if she can’t find it. She is familiar with the roads in the forest and it will be easier for her to escape.
Now that there was only one person left, Su Yan felt much more relaxed.
As long as we catch them and ask Captain Zhao to come over, we will know who sent them.
But the last person never showed up and seemed more difficult to deal with than the other two.
Su Yan covered the two unconscious people with weeds and hid behind a tree trunk.
She waited for a while, but the man never came.
He should have been able to hear the sound just now.
Just as Su Yan was about to check, a shrill scream suddenly rang out.
There are other people in the woods!
Su Yan looked in the direction of the sound, determined the direction from which the bird was startled, and then crouched and crawled forward.
The forest was not too big, and the men did not walk far. Not long after Su Yan had climbed, he saw a vague figure not far away.
The mottled moonlight vaguely outlined his figure, with broad shoulders, like a cold moon.
Su Yan recognized the familiar mask at a glance.
She was horrified, and a thousand thoughts popped up in her mind - "Why is Yun Xing here? Didn't he run away with the files? Is Yun Zhou here? Did he come back to kill someone? Who is he going to kill? Me?"
Yun Xing put away his sword and looked in the direction where Su Yan was hiding.
Su Yan subconsciously dodged backwards. Yun Xing frowned, threw the sword away, and turned to leave.
Su Yan looked at Yun Xing's feet and saw the third person.
She realized something and came out from where she was hiding.
Yunxing paused for a moment, but did not stop.
Although Su Yan was still afraid of Yun Xing, there were too many puzzles at the moment, so she had to take a risk, "Ahem...how did you know I was hiding here?"
Yun Xing then turned around.
He glanced at Su Yan hastily and said coldly: "If you are smart, you should pretend that I didn't notice you and continue to hide."
Su Yan looked extremely calm, "You have saved me time and time again, you won't hurt me easily."
Yun Xing looked at Su Yan again.
Su Yan smiled gently, but behind this gentleness was——"He won't kill me, will he? No, no, no, no, no."
Yun Xing frowned and was too lazy to say anything.
Su Yan coughed awkwardly and said in a gentle voice: "I was worried that you couldn't leave the city... Of course, you are out now, but you and Yun Zhou took some files away, those files..."
"Not something you should be looking at."
"What?"
Yun Xing said: "Don't you know why you brought about this disaster?"
"These people?" Su Yan shrugged and said nonchalantly, "Since I was a child, people have always wanted to harm me. I don't know why. I'm obviously easy to talk to, but I always feel that everyone wants to beat me up."
Yun Xing: “…”
Su Yan said this very sincerely. From childhood to adulthood, she had no idea how many times she had experienced situations like today.
Su Mao used to protect her, but after Su Mao was killed, she could only protect herself.
Yun Xing didn't want to say anything more.
Su Yan followed closely and asked, "Are you hiding something from your companion, the one called Yun Zhou?"
Yun Xing said: "There is nothing to discuss between you and me."
"But I don't think you are on the same page with them." Su Yan was worried that Yun Xing would leave her behind, so her steps and speech became faster and faster. "You should know what the files you took away mean. Those corrupt officials are a disaster to the people. If possible..."
Yunxing stopped suddenly.
Su Yan's heart thumped twice.
Yun Xing looked indifferent, "Not interested."
"But you clearly have a grudge against them..."
Yun Xingdao: "Even if there is, it doesn't mean I want to be their enemy."
“All they did was to harm the people.”
Yun Xing asked back: "What does it have to do with me?"
Su Yan didn't know what to say.
She made an apologetic expression and said politely, "I am sorry for disturbing you. Thank you for your help today. Please do as you please."
Su Yan rolled up his sleeves, grabbed the fallen man's shoulders with both hands, and prepared to drag him into the pit.
Yun Xing stopped again. He looked at Su Yan for a moment and said, "Are you going to throw him into a trap?"
After death, people have no independent consciousness, so their bodies will be slightly heavier than normal. Su Yan was used to dragging people, so he didn't feel how heavy the man was.
Su Yan said: "It's okay, I'm used to it, it won't sink."
Yun Xing didn't say much. He walked to Su Yan, grabbed the man's collar with one hand, and then walked towards the trap.
