Chapter 18 Shekou Saves People
One hour, Leng Changxi frowned slightly when he heard it, which showed that someone set out at least an hour earlier than them. Who would be so pressing so step by step? No, this person even walked in front of them.
In front of the snake hole, a pile of firewood that had not yet burned out was still warm, and the vegetation next to it was cleaned up. Obviously, it was sorted out by the man while resting. The snake hole was dark, and there was no Acha in the mouth of the soldiers, and the soldier who was abducted by the python was probably dead.
Wanyansu organized the soldiers to tie the torches. In the mountains, fire and water are extremely important. Wanyansu ordered people to take out more than a dozen torches at once this time. It can be seen that he is also very worried about the person who inexplicably appeared in the Savage Valley.
The torch was lit one by one, and few fireworks rose. Wanyansu selected the twelve strongest and most sensitive soldiers to enter the cave. The twelve torches lit up the mouth of the cave. Watching the soldiers enter one by one, everyone's hearts couldn't help but be raised to their throats. After a while, there was a reply: "Your Highness, Acha and the python died, and the belly of the python was also cut open. But the people inside are out of breath.
Obviously, the brave brother tried his best to save his brother, but finally died with regret. Soon, the soldiers replied: "There is another person's body in this cave."
"Drag him out."
After a while, every three of the twelve soldiers in it came out of the hole carrying a corpse. There were many medical wounds and bruises on Acha's body, while the man in the snake's abdomen was full of mucus, and finally a corpse was lifted out. To be precise, there was only half left, and his lower body had been swallowed by the python. Only the upper body is still blurred and recognizable.
The soldier lifted his hair and showed his pale face. This man was the young man in Tamr village.
Some of the soldiers immediately shouted: "I already knew that there were ghosts in that village, brothers, wait for us to kill back, level the village, and kill him."
"All shut up!" For the first time, Wanyansu had such a big temper in front of everyone. Leng Changxi once said that because of his end and elegant temper, it is likely that his subordinates will not accept him. Even if he wants to be compared with the tyranny of the eldest prince, he must be targeted. When it is time to maintain his authority, he can't do it at all. Soft, at this moment, Wanyan Su really realized it.
"Since we have entered the valley, it is impossible for us to go back." Yes, although Wanyansu has secretly sent someone to bury Sun Chengzhen's body, if the villagers find that Sun Chengzhen is suddenly missing, even if Sun Chengzhen himself has a lot of lives, for the people in that village, he is always kind but a little crazy about his father-in-law of the Tam family, for his disappearance or When people die, the people in the village will naturally blame the people of Wanyansu, who are the only suspects.
It may be the first time Wanyansu was so angry that more than 100 people present were suppressed. Leng Changxi squatted down to check the young man's injury. It is undeniable that the young man was indeed bitten to death by a python, and he was the only one who appeared at the scene and sneaked into the valley alone. If he said his purpose and cold Changxi is the same group of people. Shouldn't they bring more people to find the lost treasure or weapons factory?
Leng Changxi continued to go down, but saw that the young man's right hand was tightly clenched, as if he was holding something. What he had to guard tightly before he died must be more important than life. Leng Changxi took a lot of effort to spread the young man's cold and stiff right hand. , inside is just a palm-sized map, with dried blood stains and sticky mucus in the abdomen of the python.
The more you look at this map, the more familiar it becomes.
Leng Changxi glanced at Wanyansu and told Wanyansu what he thought at this time. Wanyansu looked around and quickly checked the number of people. Except for the two people who were swallowed by the python and died with the python, many of the 170 people were bitten or bitten by snakes, especially in several palaces that followed the team. None of the maidservant was spared. At the critical moment, these soldiers could not protect these weak women.
The team was organized and hurriedly walked through the most dense canyon of poisonous snakes. The cool wind blew from a hillside. This was the first open land soldiers saw after walking through so many dense forests.
Wanyansu ordered the soldiers to camp. Although it was still early, everyone was scared away by the shocking experience of Snake Valley. When the camp was set up and the bonfire rose, the sun began to set. Wanyansu's tent was the middle and largest white tent. Yaqi served the freshly cooked soup. When the water came in, Wan Yansu, Qin Yunuan and Leng Changxi were discussing something big.
On the case, there is a map taken from the young man's hand.
Yaqi put down the soup through the curtain used at intervals. The ingredients were some fungi temporarily found by the soldiers from the forest, which were fragrant.
Aside the case, Leng Changxi quietly put the maps of the four families collected in front of Wan Yansu one by one and explained, "This one is the four maps kept by the four major families of Daqi, and this one was found from the Tamr villager villager. Your Highness, what can you see?"
Wanyan restrained her eyebrows and looked carefully for a long time before saying, "These two maps are actually the same. Yes, they are the same, but the way of spelling is different." Wan Yansu said while fiddling with the four separate maps, not only sighing, "Oh, my God, this is incredible, or the four maps can spell out a complete route no matter how they spell it, but how can we know which one is correct?"
Leng Changxi took a deep breath and tapped his finger on the four maps: "This is the brilliance of the Grand Emperor. The Empress Dowager invented these four maps to make the four families fight, and the former emperor is better. Even if the four families can cooperate and put together these four maps, they can't reach the depths of the treasure, and Fu It's just that more and more people are bleeding and crying.
"What about this map?" Wanyansu pointed to the smaller saying, which was taken from the young man, "This picture is complete. Maybe it's true."
"If it's true, why did the young man die?" Qin Yunan said slowly, "I checked the soil around the cave and found that the soil on its surface was very different from its own soil. It was mixed with the smell that snakes liked very much. When I went down the mountain, I noticed that the surface soil of the whole mountain had been treated. It can be said that it was actually a man-made snake mountain, if I guessed correctly. There should be a person who is proficient in machine feng shui who has made precise arrangements and pattern adjustments to the Savage Valley, making the whole Savage Valley like a great formation. If you don't understand the mystery of this formation or don't have the correct map, you will only walk into the trap he set step by step.
"Who on earth designed this array?" Wanyan frowned. It seemed that things were much more serious than he thought. What was more terrible was that he had walked into the center of this formation step by step. I'm afraid it would be more difficult to get out.
Leng Changxi and Qin Yunuan looked at each other.
"I guess it's Sun Chengzhen." Leng Changxi said quietly.
"How could it be him?" Wan Yansu couldn't believe it, "You said that he stayed in Tamr Village just to return to the weapons factory one day. If he had designed it himself, he could have easily come in."
"I don't think it's his real purpose to go back to the weapons factory," Qin Yunuan slowly analyzed. "Geniuses are lonely. Since he can set up such a huge layout in the Savage Valley under the eyes of the emperor, he must also be waiting for a person who can unlock his layout, including him who escaped later. He was challenging his layout to see if he could escape his carefully arranged formation. In the end, he succeeded, which made him more lonely. He felt that no one could beat him, so he created obstacles and those terrible legends for the people who entered the valley, while waiting for a really powerful person to break his formation. I guess The fake map in the young man's hand was also given to him by Sun Chengzhen. He just wanted to see if the young man was smart enough to see the flaws. Unfortunately, under such ** conditions, who can maintain such a clear and cautious discrimination?
"If it's really him..." Wanyansu said, "Then there are already ways to crack these arrays in his room, and I will immediately send someone to search his room."
"No need," Qin Yunuan stopped him. "I have looked through his house, and there is nothing valuable. It seems that he has destroyed any clues for a long time."
Wanyan Su sighed. He was worried about the fate of the 170 people. At first, when he learned that Leng Changxi was sure that he could get the whole map, he dared to move forward out of his trust in Leng Changxi, but now he knows that even the map is not reliable.
"However, he destroyed the clues but couldn't destroy his habits." Qin Yunuan's mouth suddenly raised, revealing twelve points of self-confidence. In this world, he was never afraid of no clues, but for fear of not finding it.
"My father-in-law and I have checked that Sun Chengzhen's teapot is sparrow tongue tea, and even the teacup is soaked in the tea fragrance of sparrow tongue tea, which shows that he drinks this tea all year round. There is also this tea fragrance in the bamboo basket outside his house, which means that this sparrow tongue tea is picked by him himself. Sparrow tongue tea is extremely harsh on the growing environment and needs red soil. Only in the deep wet soil layer of the back wind, and this soil layer is suitable for growing bamboo. Sun Cheng is really old and it is impossible to go too far to pick tea, so this map with the mark of bamboo forest is the bottom one.
