After the fairy disappeared

Chapter 10 Shan Ze's Search
A flying kite is embossed on both sides of the coin.

The copper coin is turquoise, and this kite is also a green kite.

"Yes, this kind of Sheji order is divided by color." Hu Yang Shanze suddenly remembered, "No, this green kite coin is not yours!"

The white-robed boy interrupted: "I borrowed it from Mr. Sha."

Hu Yang Shanze spoke slowly, and the gray-clothed man was impatient: "Since you have come out, I want to ask you something, answer quickly, and I will leave quickly."

"go ahead."

Shanze is the mountain god, and some places have given more popular names:
Lord of the land.

Where spiritual energy gathers and life is abundant, mountains and lakes will be born slowly.If it is canonized by the emperor of the world, Shanze will be able to control and exert its power to manage a side of water and soil.

If the empire disappears or the canonization expires, Shanze's vitality will also decrease, and finally return to the wild age.

Although Huyang Shanze was conferred by Yuan Kingdom, it doesn't even have a mountain temple. The main reason is that it sleeps with its head covered all the year round and ignores the chores on the site.The local creatures do what they want and ignore it over time.

But it must respond to the call of the man in gray in front of him.

Hu Yang Shanze is still a little angry, but his reason tells him that the person in front of him should not be easily offended.

"Forty or fifty days ago, a sand leopard came here. I want you to find out its whereabouts." The gray-clothed man said simply, "That thing only nests in the Western Mountains, so you should rarely see it here."

"Sand Leopard? Hmm—" Hu Yang Shanze's tone dragged on, "Let me look for it."

The two waited for more than a quarter of an hour.

Suddenly, a small deer came out of the grass, not afraid of life, and even shook its head in front of the two of them.

Hu Yang Shanze said: "Follow it."

The deer turned and ran, and the two followed.

After climbing over two peaks, the deer went to a cliff, and finally stopped at the edge of a steep boulder.

"The sand leopard is here?" The white-robed boy squatted down and found a few smudges on the stone.

"Blood, but it's been a long time."

Xiaolu poked his head straight out of the boulder.

"It jumped?"

Fawn nodded.

Strange, the seriously injured sand leopards have all escaped here, why did they jump off the cliff to seek death again?The two looked at each other, then walked down the rock from the side and climbed to the bottom of the stream.

The atmosphere here is damp and much cooler than that on the mountain, so the vegetation is denser.The two searched for a long time at the bottom of the stream, but they didn't see the leopard's corpse.

The white-robed boy looked up at the cliff: "It was seriously injured, and it fell from such a high cliff, so it is impossible to be alive." There are no big trees under the cliff, so it is impossible to use leaves or vines to cushion the sand leopard. "Huyang Shanze, is it still in the mountains?"

"If you want to find its whereabouts, I'll show you." There was another tree opening beside the two, this time it was a beech, "It's not in the mountains."

A gust of mountain wind blew by, and a small tornado blew up on the ground. The branches, leaves, and soil were rolled up, and they unexpectedly rolled out of shape.

The shape of the mud leaf was molded by the wind. In addition to the leopard, there is also a creature with four limbs!
The white-robed boy glanced at it twice, and was very surprised: "The one who fell from the cliff, besides the sand leopard, was... someone else?"

The two things lay on the ground, motionless.

"To die together?" The white-robed boy frowned, "Where did the corpse go?"

Soon, two more tornadoes blew up, creating new shapes in the wind.

"Two people came and were killed by...?" The white-robed boy's expression changed, "Okay, okay, no wonder my two subordinates didn't go back, that's why!"

"Another group of people came, lifted the two corpses... separately, and took them away?"

The young man in white robe carefully identified it, but unfortunately the shape molded by the mud leaves is best described as "grey-headed and dirt-faced". Anyway, it is blurred and barely fits into a human shape, but it is impossible to see the face clearly.

"Who are these people and where are they from?"

He asked twice, and Beech answered in a low voice:
"I don't know. It's been too long, all traces have faded, only Feng Ling still remembers this."

The man in gray was not discouraged, and took over the conversation: "At least you know, which direction did they go after leaving Calabash Mountain?"

The two branches of the beech are joined together, pointing in one direction.

That's where they come from—

"Heishui City?" The white-robed boy's eyes flashed sharply, "I knew that most of the missing guards in Donglai Mansion had found clues."

But even if they traced it so far, they only found a vague location.Heishui City is not big if you say it is, but it is not small if you say it is small.

"Going to Heishui City? That's easy." The man in gray smiled, "The most direct way is often the most effective."

The forest was quiet, Hu Yang Shanze left.

The two walked more than a hundred steps in the direction of Heishui City. The gray-clothed man paused slightly, and suddenly raised his hand and shot a white light.

There was a shriek and a flapping of wings from the woods ten feet away.

The two followed the sound and found bloodstains began to appear under the big tree.

The blood spots on the ground were not obvious, but fortunately the young man in white robe was good at tracking them.The two walked another fifteen to sixty feet, and a kite landed on the ground, which was bigger than an ordinary eagle, and its wings and abdomen were pierced.

The blood from the wound had turned dark green.

"Ever since I left Heishui City, I always felt that I was being watched by someone. It turned out to be a little monster." The white-robed boy stepped forward and put his toes on the kite's neck, "Who sent you here?"

The kite opened its beak and gasped for breath.

"Speak." The white-robed boy said with more force, "Otherwise the poison will enter the heart, and you will definitely die within a quarter of an hour!"

Yaozi let out a cry of pain, and said, "I'm telling the truth, can you let me go?"

"Of course." The white-robed boy smiled, "Why would the swan care about the sparrow?"

Yaozi immediately said: "I'm just a mercenary. I just closed my eyes and rested in the Red Mountain Tavern. Suddenly someone came in and asked me to follow what you did and report back."

"What's the history of that man?"

"I don't know. I just get paid to do things!"

The man in gray suddenly said: "Don't listen to its nonsense. This is a domesticated monster!"

Domestic monsters, of course, have owners.

The white-robed young man's gaze became sharp, and he stepped on it, without further ado:

"Say!"

\\\\\

The next morning, while the He family was still eating, a servant rushed to report:

"Two guests came to the door, saying that they were under the command of General Xunzhou Zhengbei!"

He Lingchuan's heart skipped a beat, and he looked at his father.He Chunhua was also slightly taken aback, his face condensed slightly: "Please go to the Suhong Hall to watch tea."

Suhong Hall is the place where the master of the He Mansion receives guests, and it is suitable for small gatherings in twos and threes.

He stood up and nodded to He Lingchuan: "Lingchuan, follow me."

Both He Yue and Mrs. Ying were a little surprised.

Why did the master bring his eldest son with him when he met the guests from Xunzhou?
As the head of the family, the most convenient power is to do things without explanation.He Chunhua didn't say much, and took the housekeeper and He Lingchuan to the front hall.
