After Qin Shaoyou and Qin Qiaoer received the new mission, they rushed all the way and finally entered Xinglong Mansion on the third day.
After passing Xinglong Mansion, you will reach Qingtangwei.
The Qingtang Guard was initially used to guard against Qingtang raids, and was not very large in scale. Later, as Qingtang became stronger and continued to harass, the Qingtang Guard's scale also continued to grow. It not only built several military towns, but also
Many watchtowers and sentry towers were built.
Later, Qingtang changed its strategy and no longer used force to harass the border, but instead vigorously promoted bilateral trade.
Since then, Qingtangwei has become a prosperous trading town.
During its heyday, countless businessmen from Qingtang and Daxia gathered in several military towns of Qingtangwei, and countless wealth and enjoyment were also gathered there, so much so that some people boasted that the treasures in the world could be found elsewhere.
Yes, Qingtangwei has it here, but if it doesn’t exist elsewhere, Qingtangwei also has it.
But these glories are now in the past.
As the war broke out again, the excitement of Qingtangwei also changed to another form.
Instead of the merchants soliciting customers and selling goods, there were only the cursing and fighting of the sergeants!
And what is gathered here in Qingtangwei is no longer wealth and treasures, but blood and death!
Xinglong Mansion, the mansion closest to Qingtang Guard, was also greatly affected.
After Qin Shaoyou and Qin Qiaoer entered Xinglong Mansion, they discovered along the way that except for counties, towns and a few relatively large villages, they could barely protect themselves by relying on their own city walls, village walls and watchtowers.
Other smaller villages with poorer walls were either deserted by people or left with only a pile of ruins that had been looted and burned.
As for farmland, most of it is deserted.
Along the way there were many wild dogs and vultures looking for corpses.
The eyes of those wild dogs that had eaten people were red, and they were filled with bloodthirsty desire when they looked at Qin Shaoyou and others. If they were not afraid of the strong aura exuding from Qin Shaoyou and others, they would have rushed up to attack them long ago!
Obviously, the situation here in Xinglong Prefecture is far more chaotic than in other prefectures because it is close to the front line.
The homeless refugees, the bandits who took advantage of the chaos, the Qingtang wizards and sentries who sneaked in through the gaps in the front line to cause damage, as well as these beasts and monsters that smelled the smell of blood and death, and those lurking in the shadows.
The cult monsters who continue to act as monsters under them, and even the rebel soldiers who have withdrawn or escaped from the front line, etc...
It’s all caused by chaos!
The troubled people here in Xinglong Mansion are living in dire straits, it’s like a hell on earth!
However, the more chaos there is in Xinglong Mansion, the more unscrupulous bandits, demons, evil cults and rebels become.
Qin Shaoyou and the others even encountered a scene of a monster on the official road, eating people in broad daylight!
Judging from the clothes of those who were eaten, they must be refugees fleeing the war and being displaced.
In order to survive, they left their homes. They thought they had escaped the war, but unexpectedly, they ended up in the belly of the monster, were ambushed, and were all bitten and killed.
When Qin Shaoyou and others saw this scene, all the refugees who were ambushed had been killed, and no one was left alive.
Even the corpses were eaten to pieces by these monsters.
Blood and intestines dripped all over the floor, leaving only the head and other parts that were not easy to chew. In the blood, eyes widened with fear, despair and unwillingness.
Seeing the arrival of Qin Shaoyou and others, these strange-looking beasts that looked like vicious dogs but had no butts, instead of being frightened, they raised their scarlet eyes and stared straight at Qin Shaoyou. et al.
His eyes were full of desire.
The desire for blood, the desire for living people.

Perhaps it was because they had eaten too many people these days and were so ferocious that they were not afraid of the auras emanating from Qin Shaoyou, Qin Qiaoer and others, and roared at them.
These monsters do have some abilities. In the middle of the charge, they were able to escape and appeared from behind Qin Shaoyou and others in an instant, trying to bite through their excrement doors, take out their intestines, and make them suffer in pain. die.
Those refugees were probably killed by this group of monsters in a sneak attack.
But unfortunately, this time, this group of monsters obviously chose the wrong target.
Not only did they escape and attack without hurting anyone, but Zhu Xiucai, Monk Ma and the red-clad messengers under Qin Qiaoer used a whack-a-mole method to smash their heads.
Gunshanjun immediately charged towards the monster.
But he never expected that these monsters would sneak around to the back, and they didn't know because they thought his skin was rough and his flesh was unpalatable, or for some reason, no monsters actually attacked him.
The result was that by the time Mr. Gunshan could react, all the demonic beasts had been killed, and he was not able to seize even a single opportunity to do good deeds.
This made Mr. Gunshan very dissatisfied, and complained: "You are too fast, and you don't even want to leave one for me."
"I acted out of anger and struck too hard... Mainly because these monsters are too inexperienced to fight."
Everyone knew that Mr. Gunshan was holding back his demons in order to do good deeds and accumulate virtue, so naturally they were a little embarrassed.
Fortunately, Qin Shaoyou opened his mouth and rescued them.
"Lao Gun, you go dig a hole next to the official road and bury the corpses that haven't been eaten by the monsters... If you don't let these people's corpses be exposed in the wilderness, it can be considered a good deed."
"Okay, okay."
When Gunshan Jun heard that there was still an opportunity to do good deeds and accumulate merit, he hurriedly nodded and agreed. He didn't even use tools, but just a pair of bear paws to dig a grave next to the official road.
Monk Ma and Cui Yougui, one chanting sutras and the other reciting mantras, were trying to save the refugees who died tragically here.
Qin Qiaoer looked at the mutilated corpses on the ground, sighed, and said softly: "I'd rather be a peace dog than a troubled person... If there is an afterlife, I hope you can all live in a peaceful and prosperous age, and don't have to suffer the disasters of war, monsters, and ghosts."
bitter."
Qin Shaoyou also sighed softly.
In troubled times, people are indeed inferior to dogs.
Gunshanjun was very efficient. He dug a pair of bear paws into the ground and quickly dug a big hole. He also put the corpses, internal organs and other items of the victimized refugees that had not been eaten by monsters into it, and filled it with soil to bury it.
On the other side, Zhu Xiucai, Cen Biqing and the red-clothed envoys under Qin Qiaoer found some firewood from nearby, threw the corpses of several monster beasts and lit them on fire.
These monster beasts have little edible value, so it would be better to burn them.
After the corpses of the monster beasts were burned cleanly and the corpses of the victimized refugees were buried, Qin Shaoyou took out three incense sticks, lit them, and inserted them into the graves of the victimized refugees. Then he got on his horse and called on everyone to continue setting off.
I thought this experience was just an episode, but I didn't expect that this kind of thing was not an episode, but the norm in Xinglong Mansion...
In the evening, Qin Shaoyou, Qin Qiaoer and others were ready to find a place to rest.
According to the map he carried with him, there was a village ahead of the march, so Zhu Xiucai and a red-clad envoy named Yao Quan under Qin Qiaoer were sent to quickly explore the way.
After a while, Zhu Xiucai and Yao Quan did not come back, but they saw a cloud-piercing arrow rising into the sky with a sharp whistling sound!
"There is a situation in the village, everyone is moving at full speed to support!"
Qin Shaoyou's expression condensed and he immediately gave the order.
