Chapter two hundred and eighty third: dark investigation (ten)

Jiangzhou has many mountains and rivers, and even the official roads are very rugged and difficult to travel in many places.

In addition to the difficulty of walking, there are also some thieves who occupy the mountains and become kings in the mountains and forests block the road and rob. Therefore, not to mention the relationship between the prefectures, even counties are not easy. Many ordinary people have never even stepped out of the county where they live in their lives.

After Liu Feng and his group left Meizi County, they rushed for two hours and only walked less than fifty miles.

At this time, it was already shining brightly, and it was noon.

A rugged mud road that only serves five people side by side is surrounded by endless mountains and rivers and primeval forests.

The accuracy of map depiction these days is very poor, not to mention the simple version I bought from the market temporarily. Liu Feng could only guess his location from the map. As for the deviation, it is unknown.

There was no village or shop in front of me. In addition, the weather was extremely hot today, and there was not even a trace of wind. Everyone was sweating profusely at this time, and their clothes were mostly wet, emitting a sour smell of sweat.

"Okay, everyone is tired, so I find a place to stop and rest, and get something to fill my stomach."

Riding on the horse, Liu Feng put away the map and wiped the sweat beads on his forehead. His thick long hair was like a hat covering his head, which was hot and uncomfortable. At this time, he began to miss the ice cream and air conditioner.

The Jinyiwei, who was responsible for exploring the way forward, quickly found a relatively flat grassland, with a clear stream next to it.

After seeing the stream, Liu Feng immediately took off his boots and socks and soaked his feet in the cold stream. In an instant, half of the heat in his body was dissipated.

Unfortunately, the stream is too shallow, otherwise it would be even more enjoyable to swim.

After the others had placed the carriages and war horses, they took turns to guard and rest around them under the arrangement of the Jinyiwei households.

This time, in order to keep it secret, when Liu Feng left Meizi County, there were not many people around him, and his identity was disguised.

At this time, he no longer looked like an old man in the inn, but changed his identity and played a middle-aged businessman, with only one Jinyiwei household and twenty Jinyiwei elites acting as guards for escorting goods.

In addition, Huang Shan and Lu Yi from the inn were also brought out. Both of them were native to Jiangzhou, especially Huang Shan. They traveled to many places, and they had good cooking skills and could serve as guides.

In this way, a group of twenty-four people, with three carriages carrying carriages, formed a small caravan and advanced towards the state capital.

Huang Shan took off the belongings for cooking from the carriage and prepared to start making lunch.

Seeing this, Lu Yi hurried over and said, "Old Man Huang, what delicious food to cook later?"

"The conditions are simple, so I'll beggar **. Xiao Luyi, please help me take these chickens to the river."

Huang Shan stared at Lu Yi's chest wet with her turbid eyes, and said as she pointed to the cage containing chickens on the ground.

Lu Yi was also out of temper when it came to the habitual behavior of yellow shirts. She rolled her eyes wide and bent down to lift the cage.

When she thought of eating the meals made by Old Man Huang in every meal, her mood immediately became happy, and it was not entirely unhelpful to follow her this time.

The two of them came to the stream and looked at Liu Feng who was soaking their feet, so they walked to the other side of the stream with a cage.

"Old man Huang, what did you think that person does?"

While looking at Liu Feng by the stream from the corner of his eyes, Lu Yi twisted his snake's waist and avoided the big hand that was reaching out to his buttocks without leaving any trace.

Everyone was rushing along the way. Old Man Huang was sitting in the carriage to catch the carriage. He was surrounded by a dull man, and there was not even a single person to chat with, so naturally he couldn't get any useful information.

Huang Shan grabbed the five fingers that were like chicken feet with some regret, shook his head and said, "I don't know, but I carefully observed along the way. Those guards were not weak, especially the leader's breathing was deep, long and subtle, and he was definitely a master. With these people protecting him, it is obvious that this person is definitely not simple. We are all small people, so don't inquire and just stick to one's own silence."

"The shopkeeper is really, it's mysterious, and I won't give us some tips."

Lu Yi muttered.

"Okay, I'll leave it to me here. You can help me pick up some dry firewood."

Huangshan put down the cage, took out a large bowl and filled it with some clean water, then pulled out the knife and skillfully bleed the chicken.

Not long after, Lu Yi, who went to the woods to pick up dry firewood, suddenly ran back in a hurry, "It's not good, there's something going on!"

The Jinyiwei, who was originally guarding around, immediately looked at her.

The Jinyiwei Baihu standing behind Liu Feng directly crossed the stream in one step, and then came to Lu Yi after a few steps, "What did you find out!"

Looking at the leader of the guard who came to him in the blink of an eye, Lu Yi's pupils suddenly shrank, then pointed to the woods behind her and said, "There are so many people dead over there."

"Save a few people here to guard us, let's go and take a look."

Liu Feng put on his boots, jumped over the stream, and walked in that direction.

Seeing this, the Jinyiwei Baihu immediately gave a wink at the other Jinyiwei. They nodded, ran directly to the other side, and soon disappeared into the woods.

When Liu Feng arrived there, the Jinyiwei who arrived first had already looked around.

This is a mountain road that opens to the official road. At this time, there were many corpses and some scattered car frames lying on the mountain road. From the dressing of these corpses, it can be seen that this should be a caravan.

"Report to the master, I found two living people, and the others were dead. The brothers found many holes in crossbow arrows around."

After the Jinyiwei Baihu settled the situation with his subordinates, he reported to Liu Feng.

"Bound arrow?"

Liu Feng narrowed his eyes. Things like crossbows are controlled weapons.

At this time, the two survivors who had just been awakened were also escorted over. They were a burly man and a thin guy. The man looked like a caravan guard and was stabbed several times. Due to excessive blood loss, his face was very pale, his eyelids drooped slightly, and his body was shaking, as if he would faint at any time.

On the contrary, the guy had no other injuries except for a big bag on his forehead.

"Are you foreseeing the robbers?"

Liu Feng asked to the thin man who looked like a guy.

The thin man shrank timidly: "After this master's words, when our caravan passed by here in the morning, he encountered an ambush by the bandits of Heigufeng. Almost all of them were killed and the goods were stolen."

"This place is not far from the official road, so these bandits have not been wiped out by the county soldiers?"
