Chapter 1439 Many corpse pits
The further we go to Songzhou, the more people there are on the road.
Xia Zhaoyi In the past few years, most of the people fleeing from Li Qian were from Li Qian. Now the situation is reversed. Even more people are fleeing from Songzhou to the south and east.
It was night and the carriage stopped at a gathering place of inns.
There are crowds of people around and the lights are bright, but most people don't stay in inns. Instead, they gather together under the cover of the sky and sleep in the wild, saving as much as they can.
Wu Shaoning took Zhuang Qi out to inquire about the situation. He came back an hour later and said that the reason why they ran away was because of the chaos in Songzhou. He heard that they were attacked by several groups of soldiers and horses at night, and some soldiers and horses entered the village to massacre, killing hundreds of thousands of people. .
Xia Zhaoyi frowned behind the desk: "Hundreds of thousands, that's probably an exaggeration."
Wu Shaoning whispered: "But this night attack by soldiers and horses is very likely to be..."
Xia Zhaoyi raised her eyes and looked at him: "Your young master."
Wu Shaoning smiled faintly.
Xia Zhaoyi lowered his head and looked back at the scroll in his hand and said: "He went from Guzhou to Songzhou, and I went directly from Lingzhou to Songzhou without entering Hejing. He and I were both on the road, and the letter broke again. .”
"It doesn't matter. Since my young master is in Songzhou, you will definitely meet earlier than the scheduled time."
Xia Zhaoyi smiled lightly: "Yeah."
At the same time, thirty miles to the northwest from Xia Zhaoyi's Inn, there was an inn with the same crowd. In the simple and cheap Datong Shop in the backyard, Xie Zhong sat down on his butt and collapsed at the end of the bed in stunned silence.
The smell of Datong Shop is basically not good. They are all peddlers who are willing to spend a little money. They have no etiquette and no taboos. Some people pick their teeth, some pick their feet, and some directly put their hands into their pants to scratch itches.
Xie Zhong's whole body was numb, as if he had been struck by several lightning bolts, and he was too stiff to move.
Because he started talking, it sparked discussions among the people around him. Now that he is stupid, the people around him are still continuing.
It turns out that it was Qian Fengrong who was caught in Guzhou.
Actually! He was really caught!
Although he had the worst plans in his mind, after the news was confirmed, Xie Zhong felt so uncomfortable that he wanted to kill him headlong.
Suddenly, Xie Zhong, who never gave up on himself, raised his hand and gave himself a very clear and resounding slap.
I'm sick, I'm sick, what's wrong with me?
It took so long on the road!
It's not his fault for being blindly confident, but after they came out of Youzhou, they had a smooth journey and got whatever they wanted. They defeated Tian Dayao's Jinzhou and even killed Tian Dayao's xx, but Tian Dayao took little advantage of them. There is no way.
All of this was due to him, Xie Zhong, so Qian Fengrong obeyed his words and never disobeyed him once.
He also believed that Qian Fengrong would listen to him obediently and would never act recklessly.
Unexpectedly, Qian Fengrong was an evil beast that could not be tamed even though he was wild and lustful!
It was so good, his brain and Qian Fengrong's skills, the two together were a sure way to win, but why did he get sick? Why did he get sick!
Xie Zhong slapped himself again.
Only then did the people around him realize that this thin old gentleman actually slapped him twice in succession. Several people comforted him and asked him what happened.
Xie Zhong turned around and lay down on the smelly Datong bunk, crying loudly.
Xie Zhong buried himself on the bamboo mat and sobbed inarticulately: "I want revenge!! I want revenge!!! Shen Lie, you ruined my future, I want revenge!!!"

After many days of night attacks, the turbulent Songzhou ushered in two days of tranquility.
But it was not peaceful. Shen Lie and Nie Huimo's soldiers and horses stopped after discovering that the defense of Songzhou barracks was reinforced. However, Jin Hongkang's revenge army marching south with his sword made a sound and was huge.
Shen Lie placed the last small flag on the map: "Jin Hongkang will definitely take this path."
The men gathered around him. The road was remote and close to Fushang County.
"Master, are we going?" Ye Zhengdao said, "If we want to go, come and go, then the date Miss Ali has made an appointment with..."
"I'm not going," Shen Lie's lips raised slightly, "I'm just thinking about how long it will take for Jin Hongkang to turn around and go back when Yu Zhenyao's right ambush army steps into the northwest of Songzhou tomorrow."
"Then, it will take ten hours at least."
Zhai Jinsheng looked at the map: "It seems that Yu Zhenyao will gain a lot."
"General!" Miao Zhonghai strode back from outside, panting, "General, something unusual happened in Quanshu County!"
Everyone looked at it.
Miao Zhonghai breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Ten days ago, someone kept missing for no reason, and his family members could not be found anywhere. But yesterday, a few wild dogs dug around in the mountains and dug up several corpses, which were rotting! People from those villages joined forces to search the mountains. As they dug, more and more corpses were found. They also found a lot of things in the pits of several burly corpses. At that time, people from the government came together. One of the yamen guards recognized a dagger and an ox-horn comb, claiming that they were his childhood possessions in Lingde's hometown. The entire family was killed by the Zhongxin Army, and the dagger and ox-horn comb were presumably taken away. "
Zhai Jinsheng said: "So, those corpses may be members of the Zhongxin Army?"
"Well, the local villagers said that they did not live here before, but came from somewhere else. I went to do an autopsy and found that they were poisoned and then tortured to death. Now there is a theory, The person who poisoned them is probably an old man and a young man who appeared with them before. The old man is in his forties or fifties, and the younger one is a young woman. The most important thing is that the old man's surname is Xie."
Ye Zheng and others blurted out almost at the same time: "Xie Zhong!"
Miao Zhonghai nodded: "Yes!"
Shen Lie said in a deep voice: "When was the last time Xie Zhong appeared?"
"The last time someone saw him was seven days ago. It is said that he has been ill, and I don't think he will be going very fast."
Ye Zheng said anxiously: "Master, it must be Xie Zhong, should we chase him?"
Zhai Jinsheng said: "We can't catch up. The sea of people is huge. People who have been gone for seven days are too variable, and it may not be seven days."
"Then... what should I do? Just let him run away like this. If he never shows up again, wouldn't it be an advantage for this evil-doing beast?"
Shen Lie lowered his eyes and looked at the map, his eyebrows darkening.
There were two candlesticks on the table, the candles were dim, and his black eyes were bright and deep, pure and quiet.
Zhai Jinsheng said: "Master, do you have any ideas?"
Shen Lie said slowly: "Xie Zhong is definitely not a person who is willing to suffer complete defeat. He has enjoyed the power of more than ten thousand people, and he will never hide away easily and let go of troubled times. If you want to draw him out, you have to put a big Bait. If he finds one Qian Fengrong, he is absolutely confident that he can find the second one. We will give him the second one."
Zhai Jinsheng said: "Then we have to make this line very long. Maybe we need to count it in years."
"It doesn't matter." Shen Lie said.
