Chapter 3 White Bone into Pieces

Looking close, what came into Xiao Yu's eyes were high and low trees, disorderly grass, and obviously deserted villages and towns in the distance.

Liantian County has the largest plain in the world, and the thousands of miles of plains are full of fertile fields. Unfortunately, this fertile fields have been ruled by horse thieves for more than a hundred years, with a small population. Looking at it, it is desolate.

Xiao Yu stood quietly until he heard the sound of the whole team of soldiers that he withdrew his eyes from the deserted village in the distance.

With a deep sigh, Xiao Yu returned to Halbala and Agula.

The speed of the grassland cavalry marching is extremely fast, especially in the absence of mountains and rivers. Not until dark, the army will reach the ancient county in the westernmost part of Liantian County.

It is obvious that the ancient county is not a barren city, but Xiao Yu and others did not see a soldier defending the city on the wall of the ancient county.

Looking at Halbala and Agula, Xiao Yu moved and jumped directly to the roof of the gate.

Looking into the city, Xiao Yu found that the ancient county had become an empty city.

After frowning and meditating for a moment, Xiao Yu turned back and returned to the horse.

"Empty city?"

"Uh-huh!"

Knowing that the ancient county in front of him was indeed an empty city, Halbala frowned and said in a low voice, "The eagle warned in advance, which shows that the people of the ancient county should not have been evacuated today."

As soon as Halbala finished speaking, Aqurah answered, "The horse thieves of Liantian County have not arranged spies at the junction of Liantian County and the grassland over the years. They should not find us in advance."

The cities that grassland people choose to invade are relatively prosperous cities on the edge of the grassland. They don't get much benefit from attacking Liantian County. In the past few decades, they have rarely sent troops to invade Liantian County, and those horse thieves in Liantian County have never arranged spies at the junction of Liantian County and the grassland.

"Did they cause the warning of those horse thieves?"

After frowning and meditating for a moment, Xiao Yu said in a low voice, "Let's have a rest in Gu County tonight and continue to travel tomorrow!"

"They should have a good night's rest!"

Following Xiao Yu's words, Halbala moved and jumped to the roof of the gate.

After observing the situation in the city, Halbala summoned a black ball and released hundreds of wolf souls into the city.

After a while, after those wolf souls returned to Halbala, Halbala received the wolf soul with black beads and retreated back to Xiao Yu.

Seeing Xiao Yu's curious face, Halbala explained with a smile, "Those horse thieves can do anything. Exploring the situation in the city with the wolf soul is just in case."

"The wolf's sensitivity to potential dangers is indeed better than that of people!"

With a smile, Xiao Yu, Halbala and Agula rode forward.

At the gate, Xiao Yu waved her hand gently, and the thousand-pound gate creaked open.

When marching on the grassland, the grassland cavalry had been feeding on the prey they had hit on the road. They did not consume much dry food. However, after entering the city, Agora still ordered those soldiers to collect possible food in the city.

No food was found, but these grassland soldiers found a large number of bones in a military camp.

These prairie cavalry are not timid, but when they reported their findings to Xiao Yu, many soldiers still had a little fear on their faces.

Following a Dutong named Bagun, Xiao Yu, Halbala and Agula came to the barracks where there were many bones.

There are at least thousands of skeletons in the training ground of the barracks. Whether it is the bones of adults or the bones of children, the clothes on these bones show no sign of decay. Obviously, these people died not long ago. The reason why they became skeletons should be that they were sucked away by some magic.

Although Xiao Yu did not feel resentment on the bones, he couldn't help stimulating his eyes and carefully observing the bones.

After a while, Xiao Yu restrained the white light in her eyes, took a deep breath, and looked away from those bones.

Seeing that Xiao Yu withdrew her eyes, Halbala said in a low voice, "There seems to be no evil sect in Liantian County. These people should be killed by those horse thieves."

Xiao Yu nodded and said in a low voice, "There is only one demon sect in Liantian County. They should not dare to do such a thing. These people must have been killed by those horse thieves."

"Why did horse thieves kill these people? What kind of evil method is it to practice? Or for the demonstration?"

"No matter why they kill these people, Xiao will not let them go."

Halbala nodded and said in a low voice, "Do you want to order them to bury these bones?"

Xiao Yu thought for a moment, shook her head and said, "Don't touch these bones for the time being!"

"Uh-huh!"

Halbala answered, and Agula withdrew all the soldiers in the general's camp.

"General Xiao, let's find a quiet place to have a rest first!"

Xiao Yu shook her head and said in a low voice, "Xiao wants to stay here for a while."

When Halbala and Aquila heard the words, they looked at each other and left with a guilty voice.

After the two left, Xiao Yu couldn't help looking at the bones again.

No matter what the purpose of those horse thieves kill these people, if Xiao Yu had not led troops to attack Liantian County, these people would not have died. In this regard, he has an inescapable responsibility for the death of these people.

But is it wrong for Xiao Yu to deal with the horse thief?

Xiao Yu was right to deal with horse thieves. What he was wrong was that he didn't expect that horse thieves would be so ferocious.

After a while, Xiao Yu took her eyes away from the bones, took a deep breath, and strongly suppressed the killing in her heart. She took out a piece of spiritual jade to refine a card. She moved and came to the house at first sight north of the training ground. Opening the door, Xiao Yu saw that there was a table inside, so she put the card on the table, took out a small incense burner and put it in front of the card, lit a three-grade jade incense sticking it into the incense burner.

Xiao Yu prayed silently for a while, and the white bone king in a black robe appeared in the house.

"Brother Dao!"

"You're welcome!"

Just like Xiao Yu's invitation to the soul refining king in the mortal world, the White Bone King returned a salute and asked Xiao Yu's intention to invite him.

"Please take a look outside with Yuming!"

"Outside?"

The White Bone King was stunned for a moment and nodded gently.

When he came outside, he didn't wait for Xiao Yu to speak, and the White Bone King turned his attention to the white bone.

Xiao Yu has been paying attention to the expression of the White Bone King. Seeing that he withdrew his eyes, he immediately asked, "Do you know that they have been sucked away by some evil spell?"

The White Bone King shook his head and replied, "The secret methods of devouring flesh and blood are much the same. From these bones, it can't be seen that they have been sucked up by any evil spell."

Xiao Yu nodded and asked, "Brother Tao has a way to use these bones to determine which direction the person who killed them?"

"Let the poor road have a try!"

The White Bone King replied to Xiao Yu and cast a secret method on the white bone.

The White Bone King typed sixty-four runes on the white bone, and a white bone virtual shadow that was exactly the same as the white bone appeared above the white bone.

The white bone king grabbed the white bone virtual shadow. The white bone virtual shadow first converged into a white light, and then flew to the palm of the white bone king's hand.

Xiao Yu looked at the right hand of the White Bone King and saw a small compass on the palm of the hand of the White Bone King. There was a miserable white bone needle on the small compass. At this time, the bone needle was pointing in the direction of east and north.

"Their souls and flesh and blood are in that direction!"

When he said this, the White Bone King handed the small compass in his hand to Xiao Yu.

"Daxing City is in that direction. Is the murderer the horse thief in Daxing City?"

Thinking about it, Xiao Yu took the small compass handed over by the White Bone King.

"Is there anything else for Taoist friends?"

"It's gone! Thank you for your help."

"You're welcome, Taoist friends!"

He replied with a smile, and the White Bone King left.

Xiao Yu stared at the compass in her hand for a moment, sighed, put the compass into Xumizhu and left the barracks.

As soon as she left the barracks, Xiao Yu saw the eagles raised by Halbala flying down from the sky.

Xiao Yu's heart moved and came to the place where the eagle landed with the fire shadow escape method.

Because Xiao Yu chased these eagles last time, Xiao Yu just came to the small courtyard where Halbala and the eagles were located, and the eagles flew to the sky.

After frowning slightly, Xiao Yu asked Halbala, "Didn't you disturb you to receive the message?"

"It has been received!"

He replied with a smile, and Halbala immediately said with a serious look, "There is a small deal coming this way, 17 or 18 miles north of Gu County."

"Small team? How many people are in a small team?"

"It should be between 100 and 500 people. I don't know how much it is."

Xiao Yu nodded and said in a low voice, "Before Xiao rushed to the grassland, he once sent a spy of less than 2,000 people to Liantian County. Xiao is now going to see if the small team is Xiao's person. If you find that the small team is close to Gu County, please don't rush to attack, so as not to hurt your own people.

"I'll make them pay attention!"

"Uh-huh!"

Arching his hand to Halbala, Xiao Yu left with the Naruto escape method.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Xiao Yu saw the small team mentioned by Halbara.

As Xiao Yu guessed, this small team is his bloody tiger guard.

There are more than 230 people in this blood tiger guard, and the leader is Lian Xiaocheng, who is half of his left arm.

Seeing Xiao Yu, the bloody tiger guard was very excited, and even Xiaocheng's eyes were full of tears.

"What's wrong with your arm?"

"My subordinates plotted. In order to save their lives, they had to give up half of their left arm."

Xiao Yu explored Lian Xiaocheng's physical condition with the power of the yuan god and asked, "Who hurt you?"

"The man who injured his subordinate is dead!"

In reply, Lian Xiaocheng suddenly knelt down and said in a low voice, "My subordinates took action against a group of horse thieves without authorization. The exposed deeds have ruined the general's major event. Please punish the general."

"Sure enough, they have aroused the vigilance of the horse thief!"

With a deep sigh, Xiao Yu helped Lian Xiaocheng up and said in a low voice, "Don't be busy begging for punishment. Tell me the news you found out in detail!"
