Chapter 1240: 546 for wealth (21 more)

After Zhou Dacheng and Nangong settled their time, they left happily.
At this time, the sky was completely dark, the outside of the station was quiet, and the soldiers who camped outside seemed to rest.
Days of boat and car fatigue made Nangong 玥 quickly fall asleep, but Zhou Dacheng was so excited that he did not sleep in the middle of the night, and before the next day, he happily brought Mo Xiuyu to wait for Nangong 玥. Seeing Zhou Dacheng's spirited appearance, Bai Hui and Thrush could not see that he did not rest well last night.
After having breakfast, Nangong Yu, Zhou Dacheng, and Mo Xiuyu took several guards from the royal palace. A total of nearly ten people rode all the way to the southeast. The camp in the rear was almost as fast as they left. It's fried--
? "This is too bad!" The skinny soldier named Lao Chen indignantly.
"That's it." The dwarf soldier next to him hurriedly echoed. "We went to Yanding City to deliver medicine, and we didn't accompany that brother to swim in the mountains!"
Lao Chen sighed: "I used to think that Mr. Zhou was loyal to his grandson, and he was also a man of great vigor. He is a man of iron bones, and it doesn't seem to be the case now. It's still a few old sayings. Heart, it took a long time to see people's hearts! "
"That's it. And also Captain Mo is so inflamed." The other two soldiers on the side also came in to interject, and one said ironically, "In my opinion, I'm afraid there will be more torment on this road ..."
"We are just small soldiers, where do we manage to ..."
"Since there is some rest, just rest."
"..."
The soldiers gathered together in twos and threes, and these trivial gossips naturally did not reach Nangong 玥 their ears, and they were galloping along the road according to the map painted by Yi 丞. Xiao Hui flew behind them in the air, and flew in front of them.
That mine wouldn't happen to be on the edge of the official road, so everyone could only pick those trails, go through a small forest for a while, jump over a creek for a while, and walk around a field for a while ...
The journey was tortuous, and the speed of the horses was naturally limited.
After about half an hour, a small full of weeds and shrubs appeared in front of it, and at the end of the small you could see a continuous mountain range.
Zhou Dacheng slowed down, "others".
Lily couldn't wait to point to the mountain road ahead: "Is that mine over there?"
Zhou Dacheng looked at the crumpled map again and nodded, pointing at one of the mountain roads in front: "It should be the mountain to the south, there is a village nearby, and it is not difficult to find ..."
Xiao Hui made a loud scream in the air, and flew forward straight to see if it was flying in the direction that Zhou Dacheng pointed just now.
Seeing this, Bai Hui and Lily could not help but exchange a look, pleased.
It looks like Xiaohui has come here in all likelihood, so to speak, the ore it brought back yesterday may really come from the abandoned copper mine.
"drive!"
The group continued to run horses and galloped their hoofs.
After driving across the small slope, the mountains in front were getting closer and clearer, and after a moment, Lily shouted excitedly and said, "That village is here!"
When the village arrives, it is equivalent to the mine!
She was pinching her horse belly and was about to rush forward, but was stopped by several voices at the same time: "Slow!"
The voices of Nangong Yu, Zhou Dacheng, and Mo Xiuyu overlapped. The three looked at each other and immediately understood that they should be talking about the same thing.
However, they stopped Lily, but it was too late to stop Xiao Hui.
Xiao Hui had rushed to the village mouth, yelling loudly in the air, and turning around in a circle, scaring away all the birds parked on the tree.
"呱 呱 "
The crows, which were as dark as black, screamed violently, flapping their wings and flying away.
Seeing so many crows gathered here, Lily realized what was wrong.
Since ancient times, the crow has been regarded as an unknown sign, not only because of its uncomfortable appearance and sound, but also because it often appears in the place representing death, and it is because the crow eats carrion.
There are so many crows in this village. Is there a dead person in the funeral?
Lily speculated, but immediately reversed the guess.
If there was a funeral, how could this village be so quiet?
be quiet……
The more she thought about it, the more she felt wrong.
Yeah, this village is too quiet!
Although they are still a long way from the village, there is no sound in the village, no smoke, and no figure, which is a bit unreasonable!
Lily thought of it, and the others present were unexpected.
Zhou Dacheng hugged his fist and said, "Sir concubine, why not take a few people to take a look at first?"
Nangong Ling responded, and Zhou Dacheng took Ren Zinan and two other guards to the village entrance, leaving Mo Xiuyu and several guards to protect Nangong Ling.
Nangong watched Zhou Dacheng and his party go away, watching from a distance that they were slowly getting off the horse, then got off the horse at the village entrance and walked into the village ...
Quietly all around, only his Majesty snorted occasionally, and those crows scattered by the little ash seemed reluctant to leave, still lingering nearby, or in the circling sky or perched on branches ...
The rough crows came intermittently and faintly ...
What makes these crows nostalgic?
Nangong Yu, Bai Hui and Lily were even more disturbed. After a while, Zhou Dacheng's figure appeared again at the mouth of the village. Seeing that he was safe and sound, everyone was slightly relieved.
Zhou Dacheng got on the horse, riding his horse over.
Lily's nose moved, and she turned to Bai Hui and said, "Cousin, did you smell a smell?" It was a more disgusting taste than a rotten egg.
As Zhou Dacheng approached, the stench became more and more obvious.
Nangong Yu naturally smelled, frowning.
This is the taste of death!
There was something in her heart, and it seemed that something terrible had happened in the village ...
At this time, Zhou Dacheng had already been a few feet away, and his solemn complexion could not be ignored by everyone.
"Sir concubine," he solemnly fisted, "All the people in this village are dead! ... It looks like they have been dead for at least three or four days. Their subordinates let Alan check them in the village to see if they can. What clues are found ... "They still have military affairs on their trip, and it is estimated that they will have to notify the government in the nearby town to come and investigate the case thoroughly.
Zhou Dacheng is a person who has been on the battlefield. He has seen a lot of and tragic scenes on the battlefield. Although he is not accustomed to it, he has also seen a lot of strong winds and waves, and he is more than Shi Cai. .
But it was on the battlefield, where the two armies clashed. At that time, people had abandoned their nature and became a weapon in the war.
Whether the weapon was intended to be aggression or guard, the soldiers on the battlefield were not the person they were on weekdays, not the true selves.
But the village just now is different, there are ordinary civilians, all of them have no chickens, men and women, young and old, and even babies ... they have all been brutally killed.
This should be said to be a "slaughter village"!
Who the can do such a cruel thing!
Zhou Dacheng thought, clenched his fist.
That's not what ordinary people do, because those murderers are crisp, sharp and ruthless when they start, and those ordinary people who have never had blood on their hands can't handle such cruel hands. Moreover, all the killed women are neatly dressed and not insulted, which means that the killing gangs are extremely disciplined, which greatly increases their danger ...
The thought of a group of cruel and ruthless gangsters lurking nearby, Zhou Dacheng was restless. Although he is fearless, if he hurts the concubine, even if he has nine lives, he cannot afford it!
"Sir concubine, let your subordinates wait to you back to the station first." Zhou Dacheng suggested eagerly and worriedly.
Nangong narrowed his eyes for a moment, and pondered for a moment: "Zhou Dacheng, show me over ..." If the nearby mine really has a silver mine, and the village is so "happily" slaughtered, let her I have to wonder if there is a connection between the two.
It is the eternal truth that man died for wealth and birds died for food.
