Dayong Nu sentenced to death

Chapter 400 Caught, who is this woman?

They travel by night.

The mountain road is dark and rough, but fortunately the martial arts practitioners have better eyesight, so it is not a big obstacle for them. On the way, they encountered many places with burning bonfires, crowded with people and very noisy.

The more you walk in the direction of Erlang Peak, the quieter it becomes.

The bleak wind blew the snowflakes from the branches and patted everyone's faces, turning them into a wet patch. It was early morning the next day when they saw the two cliffs connected by ancient trees standing among the clouds.

Erlang Peak is actually Twin Peaks.

The concave and convex of the rocky cliff outlines a curve like a human body, and there are old trees and dead trees in the middle, which form a volley bridge.

From a distance, it looks like the arms of brothers supporting each other.

Hence the name.

"The terrain of these two peaks is steep, with deep cliffs and steep roads. It may take a lot of effort to find them."

Zhu Yan put his hands on his hips, looked up and sighed.

"Let's spread out and look for it. If there is a situation, I will contact you with a bone whistle."

Su Rao confuses Ying Ci and Xiao San, and they are paired together for easy communication. As long as the distance is not too far, they can keep track of the situation at any time.

"Be careful each of you."

"Yes."

The figures dispersed, leaving only Zhu Yan, Su Rao, and Xiao Nan.

Xiao Nan still didn't care about the outside world at all, just looked down at his feet, silent, and when Su Rao moved, he moved.

Su Rao stopped, so he stopped.

They turned around along the foot of the mountain and found a few farmers. To be on the safe side, they went up to ask a few words.

"I've never seen it before, how many people have come here, why is there no time to stop?"

"Hey, I don't know what happened to that person. Hurry up and catch him, let us little people live a peaceful life for a few days, don't bother."

As if they were used to this scene, they supported each other and walked directly to the side, continuing to peel the beans without paying attention to anyone.

Seemingly hearing that they didn't leave, the old man endured it for a while, and said without looking back, "I'm really worried, come in and look for it, just be careful not to drop things."

"No, I'm bothering you so much, please leave."

Su Rao nodded slightly.

He and Zhu Yan turned around and left. To be honest, there were only two thatched huts, and the situation inside could be clearly seen through the doors and windows. Even so, the people who came to search still broke in and searched randomly.

It shows its determination.

The same was true for the rest of the houses. After visiting one by one, they found nothing, but someone pointed her in the direction.

"You go along this road, and it takes only two miles. I heard that the officers and soldiers were killed there, and no one cares about the corpses yet."

Su Rao and the others looked for it, and sure enough, they found six frozen corpses in the snow, stubbles of limbs and broken arms were scattered all over the ground, the stubble of bones was white, and the flesh and blood had turned black with snow slag.

The belly is empty.

"Looking at the marks around it, it looks like it was torn open."

There are many wild beasts in the mountains, so it is not surprising that it will become like this. Zhu Yan walked around to check, Su Rao casually glanced at the corpses, and said in a low voice: "They have many wounds on their bodies, but they all avoided the deadly places. They should die of blood. .”

"Those who shoot deliberately prolong their suffering."

"No way?"

Zhu Yan kicked away the gravel at his feet, stopped and looked back at her, "In that case, a quick decision is the best policy, so why do you have the heart to do anything else?"

"that is the truth."

Su Rao swept over their bodies one by one, patted off the floating snow and mud on her skirt, and stood up, "You still remember, the news said that he had been silent for a while, and even the people in the government thought he had escaped. At this time, as long as you lurk quietly and look for the opportunity, you may be able to escape."

"Why did he take the initiative to show up after a few days, risking being besieged, and killing these people?"

Judging from the method of killing, it should be venting anger.

It's irrational.

"Yeah, why?"

Zhu Yan was puzzled and scratched his head.

This answer can only be known after finding the Highness of the East Palace.

They began to search the mountain.

For two days in a row, from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, I searched for all the pits and holes, and every possible hiding place, but in the end, not to mention people, I didn't even see a ghost.

The same goes for the other peak.

No one was there.

The vegetation in the mountain was overturned, and broken branches and dead branches were everywhere. Judging from the various signs of destruction, those people did dig three feet into the ground.

"Am I wrong? He didn't come back?"

Su Rao looked at a certain mountain and rock in a trance, and her mind was in a state of uncertainty for a while, Zhu Yan had already used the bone whistle to order the shadow stabbing people to withdraw, within a short time, dozens of people had gathered around her.

They dared not bother her.

It is really frustrating to think about it after spending a few days of effort and getting nothing.

"Hey, third brother, why haven't the two of them come back yet?"

Xiao Qi asked in a low voice, everyone looked around, but there was no sign of Xiao San, but at this moment, Shadow Thorn and the others suddenly took out bone whistles at the same time.

Zhu Yan listened intently for a while, his complexion changed slightly.

"girl!"

He walked quickly to Su Rao's side, Su Rao frowned, and looked at him suspiciously, "What's wrong?"

"Ajiu and Xiao San have a situation."

When he finished speaking, everyone immediately became nervous.

"Where are they?"

Su Rao stared at her eyes suddenly, putting away her scattered thoughts, Zhu Yan said: "Follow me."

He led the way, pulled the dead branches along the path and climbed forward. After a short time, he found the person.

Neither Xiao San nor Ajiu was injured.

It's just that beside the rocks in front of them, there was a figure huddled, wearing a dazzling purple dress, it was actually a woman.

"What's going on, who is she?"

Su Rao strode closer and looked at the man, and the woman also raised her head to look at her the moment she heard the movement.

The palm-sized face was so thin that the cheeks were sunken, the willow-leaf eyebrows were slender, and the round eyes were supposed to be a little lively, but there were tears in their eyes, trembling like a flower about to wither.

Seeing so many people coming, she trembled even more.

"girl."

Ah Jiu bowed his hands and saluted, and said coldly: "The two subordinates were just about to come back, and she met her halfway, hiding behind the rocks furtively, asking nothing, just shaking her head desperately."

In this barren mountain, a woman walking alone is indeed very suspicious.

They immediately detained him.

Su Rao waved them away, then looked her up and down, squatted down, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you."

The woman was about to cry, and looked at her timidly, but she still didn't relax her vigilance.

"The mountain is covered by heavy snow, why are you here alone?"

Su Rao asked.

After waiting for a long time, a weak voice came: "Picking, picking herbs... I am a medical girl in Shicheng, and the shop is short of some herbs, so, come here to find..."

"Girl, you, let me go."

"Why didn't you tell me when I asked you just now?"

Xiao San said in a deep voice: "Even if you are a medical girl, you have been walking around in the mountains in this cold weather. It looks like you have been walking around for a while. How did you survive? Why didn't you leave?"

"Also, what are you hiding from?"
