Jiaohua

Chapter 1291
The Faithful Army did not have many fires.

Whether it was before or after the turmoil now, the number of torches and braziers has not increased by half.

Standing on a high place, Shen Lie looked down at the valley, a huge mountain stream, and the sparks were faint, like a star in the ocean, and sometimes they even disappeared completely.

Ye Zheng came and saw Shen Lie standing here, came up and said, "Master, it's time to rest."

Shen Lie let out a "hmm" and couldn't take his eyes off it.

Ye Zheng followed his eyes and said for a while, "You really are a rat, you can't see the light."

Seeing that Shen Lie was still motionless, Ye Zhengwen said: "Master, the hot water is ready, let's rest."

"I always feel strange." Shen Lie said in a low voice.

"Strange?"

"Qian Fengrong's kung fu is not as good as I thought. If he is so kung fu, with Ah Li's skill, she won't be unable to handle him."

"When he scored, there was a woman on the left and right sides of him. Didn't it mean that the man would be unable to do what he wanted? He might have overdone it."

Shen Lie frowned slightly, did not answer, and kept looking at the valley.

Seeing this, Ye Zheng said nothing more.

He understands Shen Lie's stubbornness, if he doesn't want to go back, no one can persuade him, except Miss Ali.

"How long has Wu Shaoning been to Heziguan?" Shen Lie asked suddenly.

Ye Zheng calculated and said, "Master, it's not even half an hour yet."

"Okay, you go to rest."

"and you?"

"I'm watching them."

"Master," Ye Zheng sighed, "Go and rest, we'll take turns watching."

"Ye Zheng." Shen Lie looked sideways, his black eyes were fixed, calm but serious.

Ye Zheng had no choice but to say, "Then, I'll go and rest for an hour."

Ye Zheng turned around and left.

Shen Lie looked at the valley, slightly frowning his sword eyebrows.

There was an indescribable feeling in his heart, it was clear that their assassination was very successful, and it could be concluded that the other party had absolutely no idea that they would be attacked tonight, but why did he feel strange?

The sky is getting brighter, the fish belly in the east is white, the morning stars fade, the sea of ​​clouds begins to weave brocade, and the sun shines brightly.

The soldiers of the Faithful Army, who had been exhausted and frightened all night, fell into great paleness and confusion.

But some people are sleeping soundly, some people are frightened, some people use their brains, and the ambition hidden in their hearts thrives and begins to rise.

Shen Lie's worries and Xie Zhong's delusions became superfluous, and it didn't seem to matter whether he had that little follower or not.

The night passed, and the valley was not in chaos, and the tired and frightened soldiers did not flee in all directions.

Several teams were sending people to look for the little entourage, but they couldn't find them all over the mountains, but they found the bodies of a woman and a child at the foot of a mountain.

This woman and child were no strangers, they were the wife and child of Yan Zhigeng, who had been taking them to find the tomb before and was well versed in the way of cave exploration.

Everyone was very tired, too lazy to carry the corpse, so they went back after looking at it a few more times.

But when he came back, someone looked around and asked why he didn't see Yan Zhigeng.

Someone also asked if they should inform General Zhuo Xilie who went to the east last night.

Some ambitious teams are immediately dismissing the idea.

At noon, the little entourage saw no one alive, no dead body, and several teams were consolidating, leaving him alone.

The meaning is to bury the bodies of the king, the prime minister, and the generals, lieutenants, generals, and generals on the spot. Several teams and the small captain proposed to leave Lingde first.

The army of thousands of people marched out, leaving a mess, and marched towards the southeast along the mouth of the valley that came out.

The shadow guard in charge ran to look for Shen Lie who had just left, Wu Shaoning called him to stop: "Don't disturb the young master, he just fell asleep!"

"I need to report to the young master that the loyal army did not go to the direction of the official road, nor did they go north, but went southeast."

"That's it." Wu Shaoning frowned, "It seems that the young man is really not afraid of death."

"The young master is here..."

"You don't need to wake up the young master. The young master will never do anything without leaving behind. I went to the Heziguan yamen to inform you last night, and I'm only coming back now."

"You actually left? So that's the case, um, then we don't have to worry about it."

Not long after these loyal soldiers left, sure enough, they saw Cao Chunshan's soldiers and horses coming from the Pingpi official road in the west.

Cao Chunshan divided the army into two teams, one team searched four miles deep inside and outside the valley, and the other team followed him along the traces on the ground and chased southeast.

Seeing this group of soldiers and horses disappear in the southeast, Ye Zheng sighed: "Young master has done his best, I hope these soldiers are not such waste."

A hidden guard on the side said: "If you become our opponent in the future, then you should be a waste."

"...It sounds reasonable."

The group of soldiers who stayed behind to search the river valley scoured the area for more than four miles, but found nothing except a piece of rubbish.

They assembled under the leadership of an officer, and soon chased southeast.

The entire river valley returned to silence, except for the sound of the wind, there were also countless tattered clothes, broken tents, and new corpses.

When it was nearly Youshi, the setting sun was full of gold, and Shen Lie, who had slept for less than three hours, brought the dark guards back to the river valley.

The soil is old and new, and it is easy to identify. The dark guards felled trees on the spot and made a few simple digging shovels.

"Master, it's done, it's very strong." Ye Zheng came back and said.

"Let's dig!" Wu Shaoning walked up and said.

The soldiers and captains of the Faithful Army only dug a shallow hole and threw all the corpses down.

The headless corpse known as the Great King before his death was now covered with mud, and was crowded with the corpses of other officers in the pit.

With little effort, not even a stick of incense, only three hidden guards dug through the pit.

The huge headless corpse was dragged out of the pit. Ye Zheng tore off the clothes on the corpse, looked at the front and back, and looked up at Shen Lie: "Master, the skin is pretty good."

Shen Lie lowered his eyebrows and looked at the corpse spots on the corpse. After a while, he said in a deep voice, "He really isn't Qian Fengrong."

Ye Zheng and the others were shocked and looked at each other.

Wu Shaoning looked at the two women twenty steps away: "Is this man your king?"

The two women looked at them in fear, and one of them said: "He is the Great King, that's what everyone calls him, and Prime Minister Xie also calls him that."

"When did you join the Zhongxin Army?" Wu Shaoning asked.

"My family was ten years ago," said one woman, looking at the other, "she's older than me."

"I'm not a few days earlier than you, but five days earlier than you!"

"That's half a month." Shen Lie said.

"Master, why do you think this person is not Qian Fengrong?" Ye Zheng was curious.

"Ali fought with him, and Ali's Qiansibi will not be without a little scar."

"That's right!" Wu Shaoning remembered, "When he was in Qingxiang Village, he stepped on a trap on the mountain!"

With that said, Wu Shaoning immediately went to check the calf of the headless corpse.
