MTL - After the Fairy Disappeared-Chapter 26 humble person be careful
Chapter 26 The Lowly Be Careful
There is a half-peak in front of it, the mountain is barren, and there are only a few sparse bushes in the corners. However, pedestrians who come here for the first time must be attracted by their eyes because of its unique shape:
The upper part of the mountain is gone, but it doesn't look like a weathered fracture, because the fracture is extremely flat, as if someone swung a knife and cut it in half!
The break was abrupt and resolute.
You must know that it is the entire peak, with millions of tons of rock and soil, unlike a clump of bamboo that can be cut down easily.
There is a local legend that in ancient times, immortals fought here, and they cut off the mountain peak with a single sword, so this broken peak is also called "Immortal Slash".
Such legends are everywhere in this world, and it is difficult to prove them. But He Lingchuan's original body actually climbed up to the Immortal's Chop a few years ago, and saw with his own eyes that the fracture was smooth and smooth, and there was not a single bump in such a large area, which was indeed beyond the reach of a craftsman who carefully polished it.
Whether it is artificial or not is incredible.
Sun Fuping gazed at the half-peak, as if feeling the ferocity and sharpness of the sword that remained until now, and he let out a long breath after a long time: "The way is endless."
Turning forward and passing the mountain depression, there is an old Populus euphratica standing alone on the side of the road, and two people are hanging under the dry and hard branches.
The wind is blowing and people are shaking.
Many pedestrians watched under the tree, pointing and whispering.
Sun Guoshi's team took a closer look and saw that there were two white boards hanging on the corpse, with the words "Li Shang" and "Reciprocity" written on them respectively.
Nian Songyu and Sun Fuping's complexions changed instantly. Their eyes were sharp, and they could see a transparent sign pinned to the lapel of the corpse with the word "Donglai" on it.
The Donglai Mansion guards who were sent to track down the Xishan Sand Leopard, two of them went missing in Heishui City. Sun and Nian knew about this because they assigned the manpower. But at that time, the whereabouts of the sand leopards had already appeared, so they did not investigate.
Now, these two people have turned into corpses, lying on the road they must pass.
Nian Songyu can tell at a glance that the two died after their necks were broken, and they were tortured before they died.
Seeing that his face was flushed and the veins on his neck burst, Sun Guoshi quickly pressed his shoulders: "Don't be impulsive! Isn't this expected?" The two guards have been missing for a long time, and our side has already deduced the possibility of their death.
"We arranged the manpower for Donglai Mansion, this **** will take revenge on us!" Nian Songyu gritted his teeth. If you kill a Harrier by yourself, the other party will kill you two as revenge.
Donglai Mansion was too far away from the frontier after all, so Da Sima assigned his bodyguards to the two of them.
Sun Guoshi's face sank: "The overall situation is the most important! No infighting is allowed now."
"Wait until I get the Dafang pot..." Nian Songyu gritted his teeth, knowing that He Lingchuan had figured out that he would still rely heavily on the Heishuicheng army, so he couldn't turn his back on him yet. He turned his head and shouted angrily, "He Lingchuan!"
He Chunhua was shocked when he saw the dead body. Shouldn't these two be locked up in Hongbaidao's farm?
Then he remembered that the eldest son had always been reckless.
Slight restraint in the past two months does not mean that his nature has changed.
Nian Songyu called twice before He Lingchuan rode forward slowly, facing Nian Songyu's anger that was about to burst out: "Captain Nian, what's the matter?"
"Do you recognize these two?"
He Lingchuan took a closer look, secretly startled. Uncle Hao, did you let your anger out?
"Of course I don't. There are so many people coming and going in and out of Heishui City, how can I register their names one by one?" He paused. Backcountry?"
"Okay." Nian Songyu smiled instead of anger, and suddenly changed the subject, "My companion died on Hongya Road, what do you all do?"
He immediately guessed that the two guards must have been killed by He Lingchuan. This kid wants to give him eye drops, if you ask more questions, you will be ridiculed more.
The words are not speculative, so there is no need to delve into it.
"If you can't take it back, you will have a sky burial." He Lingchuan shrugged, "Anyway, it won't end well, so let the creatures in the desert appreciate the gift of nature."
He Chunhua came to interject: "Most are buried."
"Then burial." After all, he is from Donglai Mansion, so it is not easy to expose the corpse in the wilderness.
He Lingchuan laughed and said: "It's a small matter. Captain Nian should pay attention to the present first, and don't delay the progress of the team."
Finally throw this sentence back, happy!
Nian Songyu had a flash of resentment in his eyes, and then ordered Zeng Feixiong to send someone to untie the two corpses and bury them on the spot.
Of course the team can't wait and move on.
The feeling of being stared at by Nian Songyu is like a poisonous snake on the back, creepy. He Lingchuan pulled his father to slow down and walked in the middle of the team.
Nian Duwei, who is so proud, of course leads the way, so he can't look back at He Lingchuan frequently, right?
"What are you doing?" He Chunhua scolded his son in a low voice, "Killing those two people will not help, it will only further enmity with Nian Songyu."
He didn't know that Uncle Hao killed him.
"You can vent your anger!" He Lingchuan couldn't help sneering when he saw him reprimanding himself as if nothing had happened, "These two people have calculated that we have no limit, so why should our son not be allowed to slap him back? Besides, he has something to ask of us, and it shouldn't be at this time Turn against us."
"If we come back alive, from now on..."
"If we come back with the treasure, Da Sima will be ecstatic, why would we care about such a trivial matter?" He Lingchuan said wearily, "Father, you are not old, but you are timid."
He Chunhua thought for a while, his face darkened: "You are right, I was too cautious."
He always thinks about being an official in the same dynasty in the future, especially since his family has just returned to the capital and their foundation is unstable, it is better to make fewer enemies.
The idea may be correct, but how can this kind of attitude of being humble and cautious in front of the powerful and dignified make a big impact?
He secretly reminded himself here, and said to He Lingchuan: "Chuan'er, are you still blaming your father for dragging you on the road?"
When you ask this question, should you answer "yes" straightforwardly, or answer "no" against your will? He Lingchuan could only chuckle: "How dare my son?"
"As a father, why don't you want your son to be safe and successful? But in this world, it's impossible." He Chunhua patted him on the shoulder, "Chuan'er, you are not young, it's time for you to experience yourself."
He Lingchuan couldn't help it anymore: "Other people's experience, the difficulty is from low to high." Only his father opened a big one for him.
The eldest son was really full of resentment, and He Chunhua smiled: "Don't blame the old man for being cruel. With you, the possibility of us returning home safely will increase by at least 20%. The big shaman is not joking."
He Lingchuan rolled his eyes. If the original body was really a lucky general, why did he die so quietly and his body was taken by him, an outsider?
But this rhetorical question can only be held back in the stomach.
No matter how noisy it is now, it will be useless, not to mention that He Chunhua, as the magistrate, as his father, actually doesn't need to explain to him at all.
