Chapter 103 Discovering clues

Sun Wukong led the scout vanguard and quickly rushed to Dongshan. There were a lot of blood and traces of fighting on the official road.

"Immediately survey the surrounding area"

Sun Wukong looked at the blood soaked on the ground here. This should be the place where Zhoutong Escort Agency was attacked. The scene has been cleaned up and the bodies of Zhoutong Escort Agency should have been moved.

Sun Wukong immediately sent people to look for Zhou Tong Escort Agency. He wanted to find Zhou Tong Escort Agency as early as possible. He felt that the bodies of Zhou Tong Escort Agency should not be too far away.

About half an hour later, the scout vanguard finally found the Zhoutong Escort Agency.

"Report to the captain, we have found the Zhoutong Escort Agency. When we investigated just now, we found that their bodies were moved to the cliff valley of Dongshan. Our people found traces on the mountain."

The scout vanguard reported to Sun Wukong and told him his findings.

Sun Wukong nodded and ordered the scout vanguard to lead the scouts to quickly explore the entrance of the East Valley.

Sun Wukong himself squatted down and looked at the bloodstains on the ground, the destroyed land, and the messy traces of battle around him.

“They have experts”

Sun Wukong murmured, and at the same time his eyes were searching the traces on the ground, wanting to see who the owner of these traces was.

Sun Wukong touched his chin. The Zhoutong Escort Agency had all top-notch fighters, and only one scout vanguard escaped. This was not something that could be caused by a surprise attack.

Another possibility is that the opponent is stronger than him, so all the guards of Zhoutong Escort Agency died, or they are outnumbered. According to the head of the police, there are bandits in the Dongshan area, but they are only a small number. How could they catch Zhoutong Escort Agency off guard? There must be something fishy. This question needs to be carefully considered.

"Zhoutong Escort Agency"

Sun Wukong murmured, and a picture suddenly emerged in his mind. The Zhoutong Escort Agency was escorting supplies to Yangping. When they were walking on the official road, a group of people, who could be said to be bandits, appeared. They took advantage of their unpreparedness to launch a sneak attack and shot his people with bows and arrows.

Although the people from Zhoutong Escort Agency were ambushed, they did not panic and react immediately to fight the enemy. However, the enemy was too numerous and they could only retreat step by step and were slowly surrounded.

The escort leader of Zhoutong Escort Agency was a skilled fighter. He killed several people in a row to open a path. He was ready to abandon the food and lead the escort agency to retreat. When he returned to Yangping, he would lead the troops to take back the food. But unexpectedly, several experts suddenly appeared and killed the escort leader.

The escort agency lost its main force and was soon surrounded again.

These are all guesses made by Sun Wukong based on the blood splattering at the scene. Although they can be called guesses, the specific situation should be pretty close.

Judging from the situation at the scene, the traces of fighting, and the strength of the escort leader, those masters at least have the strength of Hua Jin, and may even be innate masters.

"Let's take a look at where the body was dumped first!"

Sun Wukong turned into a black shadow and flew towards the entrance of Dongshan Valley. He soon arrived at the entrance of Dongshan Valley. Sun Wukong looked up and saw his scouts gathering the corpses and investigating the situation on the scene.

Sun Wukong dug his way through the weeds and revealed a corpse. The body was torn apart, with most of the clothes on the upper body torn apart, and the pants on the lower body were also torn apart, revealing a pair of legs underneath. The toes of the legs were all broken, and it looked extremely tragic.

Looking at the corpse on the ground, Sun Wukong couldn't help but frown. From the injuries on the corpse, it can be inferred that this person died at the hands of those masters.

"Leader"

Sun Wukong was looking at the wound on the corpse when the scout vanguard came over.

"What's wrong"

"The bodies of the Zhoutong Escort Agency have been counted, including this one. There are also 23 bodies of bandits."

"Okay, I understand. Send someone to join the main force immediately and have them stay where they are and wait for my order."

"Yes"

The scout vanguard ran away, and then ordered his men to run fast and smartly to join the main force.

Sun Wukong picked up the soldier's body and carried it to the side of the other bodies. He looked at the wounds and blood on their bodies, and his eyes were unwilling to see them. He clenched his fists. These damn bastards actually killed the people from Zhoutong Escort Agency. These bastards really deserved a bad death.

It was he who pulled them into the army and sent them to Xianyang. Now his soldiers died with their eyes open in the territory he managed. How could he face the elders and folks of Yangping and their families?

Sun Wukong looked at the bodies of the twenty-three bandits and began to search their bodies, trying to find some useful clues.

This was definitely not done by simple bandits. They were well-trained. Could it be the army? Who wanted to target me? There were too many people who disliked me. I had to find clues here, then seize the initiative and avenge my brothers.

Sun Wukong stripped the bandit's body of clothes

, rummaging under the clothes.

"What is this?"

Suddenly, Sun Wukong saw a round object that looked like a piece of jade. He took it in his hand and observed it carefully. This wooden sign looked a bit like an identity token with a black python on it. Sun Wukong was puzzled. What was this thing? Could it be related to the identity of the people who attacked Zhoutong Escort Agency?

Sun Wukong continued to search and found that there were no tokens on the other corpses. Could it be that this was just a personal belonging, or maybe they had cleaned the scene and just missed the wooden token on this corpse?

Sun Wukong stripped off all the clothes of these corpses and looked at their naked bodies. He found that these people had very lean bodies, all muscles.

"Ok?"

Sun Wukong seemed to have discovered something and immediately squatted down. Looking at the calluses on both sides of the bandit's thighs, the corners of Sun Wukong's mouth raised. This was enough to prove part of their identity.

These people are officers and soldiers. This can be seen from the calluses on both sides of their thighs. Calluses are only formed by riding horses all year round and squeezing the saddle with both legs. Therefore, these people are definitely not ordinary soldiers, but soldiers in the army.

"These soldiers were killed by arrows. They looked like well-trained archers. They were all government officials."

Sun Wukong guessed that this was an assassination attempt by the army.

Yangping Qin is located in the northern border, and the army is mostly composed of cavalry, but no one knows whose soldiers they are.

The calluses on the bandits' hands are also evidence, which are formed by years of using knives. The calluses on their legs and hands can also prove that these people are in the army.
