I open a restaurant in the martial arts world

Chapter 391 Intricate
This is not a good thing.

The disappearance of the rut marks meant that the target they had been pursuing had lost their clues.

The slaughter of the entire village also meant that the interrogation plan they had conceived before had been declared bankrupt.

"Bastard, I think this incident must have been done by those inhuman cult members of the White Lotus Sect." Liu Xiaohu, who turned pale, couldn't help cursing.

"Well, I think so too." Zhao Qianru, who also had a very ugly face, nodded in agreement with Liu Xiaohu.

For such a massacre, the cultists of the White Lotus Sect had a criminal record.

Among other things, the last time the secret branch of the White Lotus Sect was taken over by their Canglongmen, wasn't it because they discovered a massacre committed by the White Lotus Sect?

In addition, the rut marks for transporting silver disappeared here, and the villagers of this village were slaughtered.

Such a coincidence, if you say that there is no connection between the two, no fool will believe it.

Later, Xu Yang found a carriage abandoned by the White Lotus Sect in a thatched stable on the right side of the village.

Although the carriage had been smashed to pieces, there were two broken boards in it, which were clearly marked with the unique brand of Canglongmen.

Obviously, this is the carriage that Canglongmen originally used to transport silver.

The carriage is still there, but the horses that draw it are gone.

There is a stable here, and there is fresh horse manure in the stable, which shows that there were horses in this stable before.

And now, the horses in the stables are gone.

Then the villagers in the whole village were slaughtered.

Putting these doubts together, a picture was automatically drawn in Xu Yang's mind.

The heretics of the White Lotus Sect drove the money-carrying carriages they had snatched from Canglongmen to here.

Maybe it was because they felt that the carriage was going too slowly, or maybe the ruts of the carriage were too obvious, so those cultists planned to snatch the horses from this village.

The villagers revolted, and then... nothing more.

This presumption is reasonable, and the other three people basically agree with Xu Yang's judgment.

But in this way, the clues they wanted to pursue became more complicated.

The people in the village had been slaughtered, and even if they had something to ask, they couldn't get answers from those cold corpses.

And there are three roads out of the village, and each road has some old and new horseshoe prints.

The four of them couldn't tell whether these horseshoe marks were left by the heretics of the White Lotus Sect, or those horses in the village had stepped on them before.

The four of them risked their lives and searched for half a day, but in the end they found nothing but an infuriating massacre of the village.

There are only four of them, but there are three roads in front of them.

And it is impossible for them to continue to divide their troops.

Ever since, their pursuit work has been in trouble.

"Brother Xu, should we choose a path to continue searching, or go back home?" Liu Bangda asked.

The 74 corpses in the village made Liu Bangda feel the cruelty of the cultists of the White Lotus Sect once again.

If possible, he would also like to bring those cults who committed crimes to justice now.

But now, difficulties lie in front of them.

Going back home is naturally the least difficult.

However, it is not that simple to choose a correct road from the three roads out of the village and continue to pursue it.

In the case of insufficient evidence, each path has a probability of one in three.

It's okay if you guessed it right.

But if you guess wrong, not only is it a waste of time, but it may also delay the business.

Just when they were caught in a dilemma, Xu Yang suddenly noticed that there seemed to be something moving on the edge of the monitoring limit range on the front right.

Xu Yang, who had already opened the monitoring range of Kai Tianyan to the maximum, only saw a blurry shadow.

Is it a human or a ghost?Or some small animal that haunts during the day?

Without any hesitation, Xu Yang said in a low voice: "Be careful!"

Then he saw his figure flashing to the front right.

Liu Bangda, who was still waiting for Xu Yang's answer, suddenly jumped on the spot.

Be careful?

He looked in the direction Xu Yang flashed by, but found nothing.

This hateful black-hearted shopkeeper can understand without saying a word, what is it that makes them be careful?
At the same time, Zhao Qianru and Liu Xiaohu quickly found a hidden place to hide.

Like Liu Bangda, they didn't know what Xu Yang wanted them to be careful about.

But out of their trust in Xu Yang, they did not hesitate to make this covert action.

Xu Yang told them to be careful, so there must be a reason to be careful.

When Zhao Qianru and Liu Xiaohu hid behind a pile of haystacks at the head of the village, Liu Bangda was still hesitating whether to do so.

But soon, he no longer needed to hesitate.

Because Xu Yang, who just dodged to the front right, actually hugged a little girl in a tattered flower jacket, and walked out from the bushes in the front right.

This time, Liu Bangda was inexplicably surprised.

Before that, although he was defeated by Xu Yang twice.

However, Liu Bangda has always believed that even if Xu Yang is stronger than him, he is still limited.

But now, this deep-rooted idea began to waver.

Xu Yang was able to find the child hidden in the bushes dozens of feet away, but he could only stand here in a daze.

This gap is simply unreasonable.

Uncle, is it because I don't know the heights of the sky and the earth?Or is this black-hearted shopkeeper hiding too deeply?
Xu Yang, who was waiting to go back, signaled to the two guys that the alarm was off. Liu Bangda, who looked surprised, was still standing there thinking wildly.

But at this time, no one paid attention to him.

Zhao Qianru and Liu Xiaohu, who ran back from behind the haystack, focused on the little girl in Xu Yang's arms.

This little girl with a small round face is only about ten years old, and the little flowered jacket she is wearing has been hung tattered by the bush in the front right.

The most poignant thing was that the little girl had a frightened expression on her face that did not belong to a child of this age group.

Obviously, this little girl in a flowered jacket is probably the only survivor in the massacred village in front of her.

Looking at the unbearable fear on Xiaoyuan's face, Zhao Qianru, who is already 20 years old but has not been nourished by love, is now giving birth to a great maternal love without a teacher.

She quickly took the poor little girl from Xu Yang's hands, then embraced her in her arms, comforting her non-stop.
