Binh Duong Order

Gu Cheng, Ye Shulin and Luo Xiaoxiao followed all the way, looking at this peaceful scene, they were a little confused for a while, but they soon figured it out. It is natural to do something decent so as not to mess with others. people doubt.

The three of them hid in the bushes and walked around the perimeter of the farm. Because the forest was too dense, they accidentally made two noises. They hid for a while in fear and thought about how to escape, but no one noticed. It has been around the wall to the night.

This place is quite big, and their legs were numb from walking, and they couldn't find a place where they could enter quietly. There were sentries around the farm, because they were so high that they couldn't see clearly what was inside when looking from the bottom during the day. Now it was dark at night, but there were no lights on inside the sentry post. I don't know if it was because no one was there or the lights were not turned on on purpose to confuse others.

As soon as the three of them found a hidden place to rest their feet, Gu Cheng asked: "What should I do?" It's impossible for the few of them to force their way in. If they sneak in quietly, they are not familiar with the place and are easy to be caught. .

There was a river behind the place where they rested, and the river was fast-flowing. One side of the fence of the farm was built by the river, and the sound of rushing water in the river could just cover them up.

Ye Shulin was lowering his head, thinking whether he should go back and tell Yuan Man about this matter. They discussed it before making a decision. Besides, Yuan Ming has been fighting against the cold wind for the past few days. They have been fighting like this in the wilderness. Sooner or later Something is going to happen, wind?Ye Shulin's nose moved: "Do you smell anything?"

Gu Cheng and Luo Xiaoxiao heard the words, sniffed hard, shook their heads at the same time, there was no smell, but took a big breath of cool air, Ye Shulin thought it was his own illusion, frowned and sniffed hard again, no, Indeed there are.

This smell is so familiar, the scene in the Jinzhou cave flashed in Ye Shulin's mind, Ye Shulin's eyelashes trembled twice, it was right: "It's the smell of blood." Ye Shulin said, he He will never forget this smell for the rest of his life, the strong smell of blood envelops him like a nightmare, and every time he thinks about it, it feels like Ling Chi pain.

When Luo Xiaoxiao and Gu Cheng heard what Ye Shulin said, they looked at each other. There was a bloody smell in the deep mountains and old forests?He knew what was going on without thinking about it, and asked Ye Shulin, "Where did it come from?"

Ye Shulin sniffed it carefully, and pointed to it: "It seems to come from the other side of the river."

From the place where they are hiding now to the river, they have to pass through an open space. It is empty and there is no shelter. Once they go out, they will definitely be exposed. Gu Cheng looked up at the tall sentry post, picked up the stone next to it, and said to Ye Shu Lin and Luo Xiaoxiao said: "You guys hide behind, and if you find something is wrong, run immediately, and I will stop."

Now that something was wrong, he ran away like this, which was really not reconciled. Gu Cheng decided to take a gamble on whether there was anyone in these sentries. Ye Shulin and Luo Xiaoxiao knew what he meant and did not object , waiting for the result with bated breath.

Gu Cheng gathered his energy and threw the stone upwards, directly hitting the eaves of the sentry post. The straw eaves made a soft sound, and the stones were directly embedded in the gaps in the straw. The three of them were ready to run. But after waiting for a while, there was no movement at all, and the three of them breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that there was no one else.

But why no one?This question swayed in the minds of the three. In the end, it was because there were more important things that they didn't care about right now. The three of them crossed the open space to the river with peace of mind.

The sound of the river tumbling forward is particularly conspicuous at night. The rushing water is black and unreal, like a ferocious giant beast that can swallow everything.

To say that they were far apart before, Gu Cheng and Luo Xiaoxiao could smell it now, although the smell was a bit weak, but they could smell it clearly, knowing that there were no guards here, Luo Xiaoxiao lighted the kindling with confidence, took a picture of the fire, Only then did I understand where the bloody smell came from.

The strands of blood disappeared in the river, and along the way where they came, a blood-red ribbon was floating on the river, eye-catching and sinful.

"We went to look at the source of the blood. It was a drainage ditch in the farm. It was blocked by an iron bar, but it was already rusted, I tried to break it, and a hole was made, and we dived in from the water."

Then the three of them saw a courtyard, a huge courtyard. There were many openings of different sizes and heights on the wall of the courtyard from different directions. Although they were different in size, there was a steady stream of blood in each opening. Staying there, there was a huge sound of splashing water, and the strong smell of blood made people sick and nauseated, and made people dizzy, and this patio was like a giant beast, swallowing the blood into its stomach and expulsing it out of its body.

"We didn't dare to stay longer, so we came out immediately. We didn't dare to come back immediately, for fear of attracting suspicion. We soaked in the river for a long time, soaked up the bloody smell on our bodies, and dried our clothes before we dared to come back. .”

After Young Master Gu finished speaking, Mu Fanchen couldn't help but thumped the table hard: "Bastard." This is simply disregarding human life.

Yuan Man glanced at Ye Shulin who was silent with his head down, poured a cup of hot tea and put it in front of him, and then told Young Master Gu and the others what happened on their side today.

The sound of the tea cup falling lightly awakened Ye Shulin, Ye Shulin looked at the hot tea in front of him and calmed down, looked up at Yuan Man who was calm and calm, his eyes gradually cleared up, he lowered his head slightly for a moment of thought, and slowly raised his hand , holding the warm teacup firmly in his eyes.

"That's why." Luo Xiaoxiao said in disbelief after listening, "Everyone in Yuanming knows what the An family has done?"

Yuan Man nodded: "According to what you said, the place where the corpses were dumped is not close to the farm. They dared to transport the corpses so far because they were not afraid of being seen. I thought it was strange to dispose of the corpses so grandly. They are a little more arrogant, now it seems that they are indeed arrogant." The sentries are not used, the blood is poured into the river, and the corpses are abandoned in the mountains, I am afraid that there is no one who is more arrogant than them.

"But." Young Master Gu felt a little strange: "Why did they throw the corpse so far away? Isn't it better to deal with a place as big as the farm?" Is it just for excitement?This is too strange.

Mu Fanchen shook his head: "I don't know, maybe it's because there is something wrong with those corpses and we can't keep them? I haven't thought about this problem yet."

"Let's check slowly." Ye Shulin said: "We can know so many things in just a few days, and there will always be an answer to this question."

"Yes." Mu Fanchen laughed at himself: "It's only a few days, we outsiders can find out so many things, do you think it's easier for people like Yuanming to find out than us?"

Everyone knows what Mu Fanchen meant by these words. If they had sympathized with the people of Yuanming being enslaved by the An family before, they might all say that they deserve it now. Credit, helping the evildoers, nothing to be pitiful about.

"He Zhongchao, the magistrate of Yuanming, is the son-in-law of the An family, what if they are colluding?" Luo Xiaoxiao carefully brought up the possibility.

"Even so, there is a way." Mu Fanchen said: "Is it because it is difficult that you don't do it? Some things should be done no matter how difficult they are. Otherwise, who can expect to help you?"

Indeed, Ye Shulin agreed with what Mu Fanchen said, no one can help you, you can only rely on yourself, some things are difficult, but you should do it.

Luo Xiaoxiao just raised a possibility, and was suddenly yelled at, a little aggrieved, and wanted to say something, but seeing Mu Fanchen's appearance, she didn't want to get angry, so she endured it, but Young Master Gu frowned, and raised her own My opinion: "It's not that simple." If everything in the world can be done with a word of mouth, neither the Xie family brothers nor General Su would choose to die with their bodies. Who hasn't had any difficulties and unspeakable secrets?It cannot be generalized.

"But it's not that difficult, is it?" Ye Shulin said: "If we can find it, they won't find it, and they may even have more than us. Where paper pleadings are not made, it will naturally be difficult.”

"I don't know if it's difficult or not." Seeing that Young Master Gu was about to speak again, and the two sides seemed to be arguing, Yuan Man stopped him in time: "The fact is so, even if you two fight here, what's the point?"

After Yuan Man finished speaking, both sides turned off the fire. Although no one was convinced, they didn't continue talking.

"The people in this place are really scary." What kind of person can do this for their own selfish desires, and can even abandon the most basic conscience as a human being, but...... .Luo Xiaoxiao's eyes are gloomy, this is the truth.

"There is one more thing." Gu Cheng was still debating whether to say it, afraid that if he read it wrong, it would be bad, but after thinking about it, he decided to say it: "I think, in that place, why don't you see it? .”

Early the next morning, news came from An's servants, saying that when the woman woke up, He Zhongchao just came to the door, An Ze stayed to see him, and An Yizhou went to the farm alone.

This farm is the property of the ancestors of the An family. The outside is fertile land, which is used to grow medicine. It is for outsiders to see, and the inside is their own place.

An Yizhou arrived at the gate by car, the guards at the gate were neatly guarded, and Shou Bo, who was in charge, was waiting at the gate early in the morning. When he saw An Yizhou's carriage, he hurried to meet him. An Yizhou lifted the curtain and looked at him. The surrounding guards nodded in satisfaction and let Shoubo come up.

Uncle Shou got into the carriage, and the carriage continued to drive inside. Uncle Shou asked Ann first, and then An Yizhou asked, "Is there anything unusual these days?"

"Young master, don't worry." Shoubo replied with a smile: "I have been following the rules, checking, checking, and repairing every day. I am very careful. Ahem, there will be no mistakes. If the young master is worried, the old man I can take the young master to have a look."

"I don't worry about your work." Uncle Shou is an old man in the An family. He has been with him since his grandparents. He has never made any mistakes in so many years, so An Yizhou is naturally relieved.

After the carriage drove through a lot of medicine fields, it arrived at the place. An Yizhou and Shoubo got out of the carriage together. This is a house built entirely of wood. Enter through the main entrance. It is just a warehouse for stacking and drying medicinal materials. The secret door, going all the way to the ground, is the real hole in the sky.

The place behind the secret door, just entering is just a lobby that looks the same as other places. There is a whole circle of wooden frames and boards in the lobby, and the formulas of medicinal materials are written on them. List them one by one, and all useless ones are crossed out. A group of people wearing black clothes, black gloves, and black masks walked through it.

Taking this lobby as the origin, there are separate roads on the front, left, and right sides, and there are countless doors on each road. Behind each door is a sinful man, screaming in pain and howling hysterically, scrambling to get out of the closed room. leaked through the crack of the door.

It was a desperate and helpless wail, no matter who heard it, they would feel pity, but the people here have long been used to it, and this level has long since failed to impress their hard-hearted hearts.

The people here saluted when they saw An Yizhou. An Yizhou waved them to continue. The servants on one side brought black robes, gloves and masks. After An Yizhou and Shoubo were dressed neatly, Shoubo led An Yizhou. Zhou continued to walk further along the road in the middle. On the way, he encountered a door that he forgot to close. An Yizhou glanced inside unintentionally, and saw several corpses discarded in the corner like that. An Yizhou covered his nose. Frowning, Uncle Shou took a step forward and quickly closed the door, explaining: "Recently, the corpse powder has been used up quickly, and it is too late to deal with it. I have offended the young master. Please forgive me, young master."

An Yizhou frowned when he heard the words: "Is there not enough corpse powder?" These corpses are evidence, so An's family has always been careful when handling corpses. They always throw the corpses into the pool and soak them in water, then sprinkle corpse powder and soak for a day Overnight, when the corpse turns into blood, it will naturally flow into the rivers, lakes and seas to destroy the corpse.

"You know, young master." Uncle Shou said while leading An Yizhou in, "It's not difficult to make corpse powder, the green name inside is expensive, and corpse powder is inseparable from green name. Hey, it’s the old slave who’s useless. Recently, new medicines have been ordered outside, and it’s the old slave’s ineffective supervision that has led to the delay in making it, and the loss has increased, ahem.”

Shou Bo is an old man, and An Yizhou knows how difficult it is to make these medicines at home. Seeing an old man he is familiar with blame himself so much, An Yizhou couldn't bear it: "Shoubo don't blame yourself, this is not the same as yours. It doesn't matter, there is not enough corpse powder, just go to the tent to pick it up, things are busy here, I just heard that you have been drinking a lot of times along the way, but you are sick?" After all, the An family always knows the seriousness, and never stingy about these aspects The old man sincerely wants to appease the expenses.

"I'm sick, cough cough, thank you young master for your concern."

"I also hope that Uncle Shou doesn't need to be stingy with medication. As I said earlier, Uncle Shou is his own person at home and can do whatever he wants. Please also take care of yourself. You still need to take care of him here." It seems Although Shoubo is capable, he is old and needs to find a new person to take his place.

"Don't worry, young master, this old servant will do his best to serve An's family, oh, it's here." While talking, Shoubo has already led the person to the door of the room: "Young master, do you want this old servant to accompany you in?"

"No need." An Yizhou said: "Shoubo, wait for me outside." Although Shoubo is an old man, he is an outsider after all, and some things are not easy for him to know.

"Yes." Uncle Shou opened the door after agreeing, and invited An Yizhou in. After An Yizhou entered, Uncle Shou closed the door and guarded the door, and raised his hand to touch his chest.

The room An Yizhou entered was very simple, and a bed was placed directly opposite the door. On the bed lay a woman, wearing clean clothes, but her exposed skin was full of scars. Her hands, feet and neck were bound with iron rings. It was firmly fixed to the ground, and the cabinet next to the bed was full of herbs. The woman curled up on the bed like that, half dead. When she heard someone coming in, she trembled slightly. When she looked up, she saw the familiar dress again, and continued to lie down. Nothing moves.

"I let someone take your dumb medicine, so you should be able to speak?" An Yizhou entered the door and sat on a chair, staring at the embarrassed woman on the bed: "Tell me, what's your name?"

Since she came in, it was the first time someone spoke to her in such a long time. The woman slowly stood up and wanted to sit upright, but it was too painful, so she could only slightly hunched over and raised her head to ask An Yizhou : "Then what's your name?"

The woman's Mandarin was a bit strange, with hoarseness from not speaking for a long time, and weakness after torture.There was another strange tone, yes, you are a human being, I didn’t expect that the official language is good, An Yizhou was not angry when he was asked back, he looked directly at this tortured face and said: "An Yizhou, Strictly speaking, I saved you." It's just a piece of fish, An Yizhou is very clear about the purpose of his visit today, so there is no need to get angry with her.

The woman shook the iron chain in her hand as a silent inquiry, An Yizhou leaned back and shrugged her shoulders as an answer, the woman chuckled lightly as she accepted her answer: "Tuoya."

"Tuoya." An Yizhou read her name once, and went straight to the point: "What is the relationship between you and Sixth Master?"

"Huh." Toya chuckled, and sat in a different position, the iron chain on her body was driven to make a sound: "What kind of story did she make up for you?"

"Story?" An Yizhou suddenly felt flustered. This woman acted too calmly. He appreciated this kind of calmness, but this kind of calmness was destined to be unusual. She has already collapsed, and this woman can still chat with herself calmly?Who is she?

Of course, Toya quickly gave him the answer to this question.

"Of course it's a story." Toya covered her mouth and smiled: "How dare she tell you the truth? For example, to tell you—" Toya adjusted her sitting posture slightly, looking directly into An Yizhou's eyes: "I It's Huiran's princess."
