These people are the common people who died in the turmoil in the west city, those bodies that disappeared.

Then he looked at the armors of many of King Yan's subordinates in the pit. Regardless of stepping on the half-rotten and sticky corpses, he went straight to the armors and picked them up one by one.

There is not a body of a dead soldier here, and the armor is empty.

If the rebel army wanted to discard these corpses, why did they bother to take off the armor of the soldiers who died under King Yan?

As Jun Ruohan said, those who died in battle just took off their armor and changed into rebel robes.

And these dead innocent people are the necessary victims in this deliberate turmoil.

There is no undead in turmoil, so there is this huge death pit in front of us.

Gu Fang crawled out of the pit and tore off the cloth towel tied around his nose. At this moment, he seemed to be unable to smell the stench of those corpses.

Sitting next to Xiao Hei, looking at the huge pit full of innocent people, he couldn't explain how he felt. He only had one thought, and that was to tie Jun Tingzhao to the pit and make him kneel here Recite sutras for every dead commoner, and then cut him into pieces, feed pigs, dogs, wolves, tigers and leopards.

War is cruel, and death is inevitable, and it is not others who suffer the most in war, but the common people, so everyone begs to live a stable and peaceful life without war.

But Jun Tingzhao didn't hesitate to sacrifice these people in order to make the turmoil he designed more realistic.

These innocent lives probably did not know at the moment of their death that they did not die in war, but in a person's selfish desires.

When he came back to his senses, the sun had already set.

He turned to the death pit, rummaged one by one, and finally found a fire pocket in a soldier's armor.

However, it was a little damp, so I found a vent to dry it for a long time and finally managed to light it.

No water source was found, the only water he had was the water bag that Xiao Hei hung up when he set off from Beicheng yesterday, and even if he saved himself from drinking, there was only half of the bag left.

So the rabbit couldn't be cleaned either.

Looking at the tasteless and fishy food, Gu Fang forced himself to eat more than half of it. After all, his body needed it, and he would starve to death if he didn't eat any more.

The stomach is full, and the brain seems to be full... sober.

He stared in the direction of the death pit, wondering if he had found evidence that King Yan deliberately created turmoil.

And he firmly believed that those who dug the pit and threw away the corpse would not say that the pit was dug in the depths of Dayuling, after all, if you go deep into Dayuling, you may not be able to get out.

In other words, it should not be far from the exit.

Gu Fang stood up violently, rekindling his desire to survive.

……

Jun Tingzhao has been a little anxious these days, Gu Fang broke into Dayu Ridge by accident, but he still hasn't found anyone.

If he died in it, it would be bad if he ran into that death pit again while alive.

"Master, today's search is still fruitless." A man in black quietly sneaked into the room.

"Trash." Jun Tingzhao slapped the table with his palm, "I want to see people when I'm alive, and I want to see corpses when I'm dead."

"Dayu Ridge is too dangerous, and my subordinates dare not take the risk to go deep into it," said that humanely.

How could Jun Tingzhao not know the horror of Dayu Ridge, and said after a while: "Then burn those corpses, especially those armor suits you are wearing."

If I had known that Gu Fang would enter Dayu Ridge, I shouldn't have just thrown away the armor in trouble.

"The subordinate is to report this matter to the master."

Jun Tingzhao squinted his eyes, feeling that something was wrong.

The man didn't dare to look up at him: "Today, my subordinates took people to the place where we abandoned the corpse last time..."

"How?" Jun Tingzhao asked.

"I can't find... I can't find it."

"What can't be found?" Jun Tingzhao grabbed the man by the collar.

"I can't find the dead man's pit where the corpses were abandoned." The man said tremblingly.

"Say it again." Jun Tingzhao seemed to have heard a big joke, "What can't be found?"

A dead man's pit is missing?What about the thousands of corpses?Could it be that he grew wings and flew?

"At that time, we didn't choose a place where the corpses were dumped. After all, it was Dayu Ridge, and most people would not dare to enter at will. But... today, my subordinates took people to search for it, and prepared to destroy the corpses and traces, but...they didn't go any further. Found it, even the marks we made when we went in last time are gone."

Jun Tingzhao slumped down on the teacher's chair next to him, it's all right now...

It is written in the book that "Dayu Ridge has different roads in the morning and evening, and different directions in the four seasons." It seems that it is not an exaggeration or mystification.

"Master, what should we do now?" The man was bewildered.

Jun Tingzhao propped his forehead with one hand, and did not speak for a long time.

Gu Fang who doesn't know life and death is a loophole, and so is the disappearing dead man's pit.

"Burned!"

The man knelt on the ground and waited for a long time before finally hearing his master's voice.

"Burn...what did you burn?" the man in black was a little at a loss.

"Dayuling." Jun Tingzhao still maintained the posture of holding his forehead, and he didn't even open his eyes.

……

Gu Fang led Xiao Hei around the death pit for nearly two hours but failed to find a way out, until the sky darkened, and he finally gave up.

Dayuling has different roads in the morning and evening, and different directions in four seasons.He didn't dare to go too far, because he was afraid that if he turned around, he would never find this pit that had thrown away thousands of innocent people's lives and testified against Jun Tingzhao's crimes.

Night is the time for ferocious beasts to move around. I didn't feel it last night, but tonight at the edge of the dead man's pit, those things that smelled of blood came one after another.

He also witnessed a contest between a pack of wolves and a beast that looked like a tiger but not a tiger. In the end, the unnamed thing was defeated and ran away with its tail between its legs.

He lit a circle of fire, enclosing himself and Xiao Hei inside.

Even so, I only dare to take a nap when the sky is getting brighter.

It wasn't until the light through the dense branches and leaves woke him up that he yawned drowsily and opened his eyes.

The first thing you do when you open your eyes is to look at the pit.

Okay, still there.

I just turned my head to look again, but I couldn't find the big tree I marked yesterday.

This Osumi Ridge is simply amazing.

Gu Fang discovered that it had been a day since the fire broke out in Dayu Ridge, thick smoke and hot air were coming from all directions, and even Xiao Hei became restless.

He didn't dare to walk around and look for a way out, because he didn't know which direction the fire started.

Besides, there is this death pit. If the fire burns these corpses and armor, it will be a failure.

He looked at the weather for signs of rain, and only hoped that the rain would come faster and heavier.

Gu Fang didn't know that the fire was man-made, and only wanted to prevent it from happening. Fires are common in summer forests. This time it happened to be a rainy day, so it might not be the next time.

Thinking of this, he picked up the jun'da0 that was thrown down in the pit, and started digging a firebreak around the huge pit with a shovel.

Jiang Ling waited in Beicheng for a few days, until Tang Long came to tell him that Dayu Ridge was on fire, and finally he couldn't sit still anymore.

"I'm going to Dasumi Ridge."

Tang Long pulled him back: "You can't see anything anymore, what can you do there?"

Not to mention what can be done, it is difficult to find a place smoothly, but Deputy Director Tang did not say this.

"He can't die," Jiang Ling said.

"Great, it's raining." Zhuang Zhou rushed in at the right time with a happy expression on his face, "I'm afraid the fire won't be able to burn."

Jiang Ling still frowned, but didn't speak.

Zhuang Zhou naturally understood that the rain will stop one day, but the fire can burn at any time.

"I'll look for it again." Zhuang Zhou said, after all, he had his share in helping Gu Fang sneak away from Vice President Jiang's nose. responsibility.

He didn't dare to delay for a moment in the past few days. He entered and exited Dayu Ridge countless times, but he didn't dare to go deep, so he didn't get anything so far.

It rained heavily for three or four days, and King Yan's first fire failed to burn. Dayu Ridge, after the baptism of rain, would have to wait at least a few days before the rainwater in the mountains and forests basically dried up before it could start another raging fire.

Gu Fang took this opportunity to dig around the dead man's pit day and night to dig out a not-so-sophisticated fire belt. This is a big project. After digging, he just felt dizzy and his feet were floating.

It's over, probably got sick from the rain.

He was lying on a clearing beside the pit, and suddenly thought, Dayu Ridge will take different paths from day to night, will he open his eyes again, the fire belt is still there, and the pit has gone away...

"Xiao Hei." Gu Fang was lying on the ground and had no strength to get up.

On the way, he let Xiao Hei go away once, but this little beast was still a bit humane, and he came back after running for two steps.

Now as soon as its name was called, the little beast came to him with graceful steps, and unconsciously accepted the hasty name.

"Let me see if you are sick." Gu Fang raised his face and stretched out his hand, and Xiao Hei consciously put the old horse's face directly above him.

Gu Fang stretched out his hand and probed into its ear, he was better than himself, good job!

He had been in a daze for several days, and he didn't leave this place for half a step. He had to guard the pit where he could run away with his long legs at any time, but guarding like this was not an option, he had to get in touch with the outside world.

Catch a bird or hawk for training?

It takes at least a few months to train a carrier pigeon, and when he is well trained, the dishes will be cold.

There are some unconstrained ideas in his mind, and Gu Fang feels that he is going to be dazed.

When a person is sick, he is particularly vulnerable, and when he is vulnerable, he starts to think about things.

At the moment when he passed out, he suddenly regretted that he didn't express his heart to Jun Ruohan.

When he thought that he might die here for no reason, and his little junior would spend the rest of his life in tears, he felt sorry for him.

"If, I can still see him..." Gu Fang opened his eyes with difficulty to face the red sun shining through the dense forest, his throat was so hot that he was about to catch fire, "Brother, I will definitely not say anything, Kiss him."

After thinking about it for so many years, Xiao didn't even take advantage of it when he died. Poor!
