The man was injured and gritted his teeth. He glared at Xiao Liuyue and Xue Xichen angrily and realized that he was no match for them! A good man will not suffer the immediate disadvantages, and the Thirty-Six Stratagems will be the best! The man blew his whistle and suddenly heard "Yiya ah——"
"There was a burst of zombies wailing, and the man smiled coldly at Xiao Liuyue and Xue Xichensen. The projectile in his hand hit the ground, and white smoke filled the air. His body disappeared into the thick white smoke, and he disappeared in an instant.
The white smoke dissipated and the man was gone.
"Oops! Those Gu people!"
The man's whistle just now was probably an order for the Gu people to attack. Xue Xichen looked at Xiao Liuyue nervously, "Brother, what should I do?"
"Don't panic!"
Xiao Liuyue calmly reassured, "Counting the time, Yue Tao and the others are almost here. Let's go to the mountain to check the situation. If there are really poisonous people, do as I said before - kill them all with headshots!"
"But……"
Seeing Xue Xichen's hesitation, Xiao Liuyue asked: "Xichen, are you afraid of blood?"
"I……"
She couldn't say she was afraid of blood, after all, there was so much blood on her hands, she just felt - disgusting!
Xiao Liuyue said thoughtfully: "Xichen, if you don't want to go, stay here and wait for me! I will come back to pick you up after I finish dealing with the poisonous people!"
"No! Senior brother, I'll go with you!"
It would be nice to have someone to take care of her! She has never seen any big storms in her life. She has already died twice, so a mere poisoner can't trouble her!
"Brother, let's go!"
Xiao Liuyue took her seriously, "Xichen, are you really not afraid?"
Xue Xichen responded with a smile, "Senior brother, don't worry! Junior sister is very brave! Just a poisonous person can't scare me!"
"Okay! Be careful!"
"Yeah! Let's go!"
"Walk!"
The two of them followed the direction of the sound and walked all the way up the mountain.
…
When Pei Yuetao led the escorts to arrive, he saw the bloody and exhausted figures of Xiao Liuyue and Xue Xichen. Pei Yuetao frowned and saw that the clean clothes of Xiao Liuyue and Xue Xichen were covered with blood and brains, and he couldn't help but worry and asked:
"What happened? Is there still that woman's helper on the mountain?"
"Oh! Don't mention it!"
The stench of rotting corpses still lingered between the nostrils; the sharp neighing still lingered in the ears; Xue Xichen never wanted to experience the thrill of fighting a living corpse for the second time in her life, it was really more terrifying than a living person!
Fortunately, there was no danger! Now she just wants to go back to her room to take a shower and change into these clothes, and then burn the clothes directly. Even if she washes these smelly clothes, she will never wear them again!
Just thinking about it makes me feel sick! Out of sight is pure! Out of sight is pure!
"The darts are all in the cave."
Xiao Liuyue pointed to the dark patch of snow behind her and said to Pei Yuetao, "Yuetao, take the bodyguard into the cave to pick up the goods. Xichen and I are going back first!"
Pei Yuetao ordered his bodyguard to go into the cave to pick up the goods. He asked Xiao Liuyue, "Where is that woman?"
"Escape!"
"Escaped?"
Pei Yuetao was surprised. Xiao Liuyue and Xue Xichen teamed up to let that woman escape. Could it be that that woman's martial arts were really that powerful? He asked: "Do you know the origin of that woman?"
Xiao Liuyue glanced at Xue Xichen, whose brows were furrowed, her face was pale, and she had a look of disgust on her face. She kept tugging on her clothes and wrinkled her nose. He said to Pei Yuetao: "Let's talk about anything after we get back! Xichen
It’s uncomfortable, let’s go back first!”
"good!"
Pei Yuetao also noticed that Xue Xichen's face turned pale. Although he couldn't guess the reason, he knew that the matter could not be delayed. He said: "You go to the Changlong Inn in the town to stay first. That is my Pei family's property. Wait until I finish dealing with it.
As for the matter, I will go down the mountain to meet you."
"Okay! We'll wait for you at the inn!"
After saying goodbye to Pei Yuetao, Xiao Liuyue supported Xue Xichen and walked down the mountain step by step under the heavy snow...
…
In the inn, Xiao Liuyue had just finished washing and wiping her wet hair and walked out. Pei Yuetao was sitting at the coffee table waiting for him. Xiao Liuyue was not surprised to see Pei Yuetao. While wiping his hair, he walked to the table and sat down, and asked Pei Yuetao,
"Has everything been taken care of?"
"It's taken care of."
"Has the body been disposed of as well?"
When he first saw the corpses, Pei Yuetao was shocked. However, with many years of experience in traveling around the world, he immediately knew what to do. He ordered his bodyguards to bury the bodies on the spot, and then transport the stolen items back to the inn.
Before she could change her clothes, she hurriedly came to Xiao Liuyue to ask for clarification.
"Liuyue, what happened? Those corpses... had obviously been dead for a long time, rotting and smelly, but why did they have their limbs cut off and their heads exploded, and thick black and smelly blood flowed out, making people sick?"
"Do you know about Gu people?"
"Gu people?!" Pei Yuetao was surprised, "You said those corpses are all Gu people!"
"Not bad!" Xiao Liuyue wiped her hair clean, reached out and fiddled with it, and said solemnly, "Our opponent is not only weird in martial arts, good at poisoning, but also good at using poison! Those corpses you see are his poison!"
"sky!"
Pei Yuetao couldn't help but shudder, and he asked with concern, "Liuyue, you and Xichen..."
"It's okay!"
Having said that, the horror of that scene cannot be described in any words. It is enough to experience it once in a lifetime, and I would never want to experience it a second time.
"Liuyue!" Pei Yuetao curled up his left index finger, tapped the coffee table surface, and asked Xiao Liuyue, "What do you think of this incident?"
"The transport of escorts is a secret and should not be known to anyone. However, escort robberies happen again and again. It is obvious that there is an informer among us!"
"Only the head of the escort knew about the object and destination this time. Even the head of the second escort did not know. However, his whereabouts were also leaked. It can be seen that the informant is not in our Weiyuan Escort Agency, but beside Feng Qingge."
Xiao Liuyue pondered and asked: "How many people know about the process of raising supplies?"
Pei Yuetao said: "I sent my most capable person to collect supplies in 38 counties in seven neighboring provinces and secretly delivered them to the Weiyuan Escort Bureau. Only this person and the chief escort officer of the Weiyuan Escort Bureau knew the specific situation. This person's name is Lan
Yang Yu is my close friend for many years and is in charge of the Pei Family Grain Bureau. He is absolutely reliable and there is no need to doubt him."
"If it's not you, it's Feng Qingge's. Yue Tao, is it possible that the secrets were leaked during Lan Yangyu's entire process of raising supplies?"
"I ordered Lan Yangyu to act in secret and not to let third parties know. If you still have suspicions, I can go back and investigate in detail. However, you also need to investigate Feng Qingge thoroughly."
"I see!"
Pei Yuetao looked at Xiao Liuyue with burning eyes and said seriously: "I hope the informer is not someone close to Feng Qingge, otherwise, all your plans will be known to him, and the person behind him obviously wants to kill Feng Qingge."
If you die, I'm worried that you and Xichen will be in danger."
"I see!"
Pei Yuetao's concerns are exactly Xiao Liuyue's concerns. If there is really an informant around Feng Qingge, then all their secret plans will be exposed to the enemy, enough to send them to the guillotine.
