After some planning, Xia Shang planned to sneak into Qingshan Residence to check the situation, and if there was a chance, he would secretly take Yue Yanzhi away.
Shangguan Chan went to join her eldest brother first, with the main purpose of persuading him to stop this action.
Shangguan Chan believed in Xia and Shang. If Yue Yanzhi did not have the general outline of the Book of Heaven, then it would be meaningless for them to continue taking risks.
Even if it was just a head-on conflict a few days ago, the Red Flower Club had lost five or six of its remaining masters. The Red Flower Club could not bear this kind of loss, so there could be no needless sacrifices.
After a little tidying up in the cave, the group headed to Qingshan Residence under the leadership of the mountain guest.
The mountain road was still difficult to walk, and Shangguan Chan was very careful while walking even though he was injured.
Xia Shang naturally followed Shangguan Chan and took great care of her. After all, the time he spent with Shangguan Chan was only a handful. Since it was an unexpected encounter, Xia Shang cherished it very much.
I don't know if Shangguanchan had the same idea as Xia Shang. Although they were indifferent along the way, there was no confrontation and they accepted all the cares Xia Shang sent.
The most distressing thing on the road was Wu Changan. Seeing his goddess making love to another man, the turbulence in his heart was overwhelming but he couldn't express it because of his face.
I really couldn't stand it any longer, so I could only speed up my pace and walk ahead to see if I could find anything new.
After walking for about an hour, the sound of a stream suddenly came from the front of the mountain forest.
The mountain here goes down. After a group of people climbed over a mountain, there seemed to be another small mountain not far ahead. Because of the dense forest, it was difficult to see the situation in front. But judging from the direction of the sound, it should be two hills.
A stream formed in the low-lying areas between.
Sure enough, after walking a few steps further, we emerged from the forest. The view ahead suddenly opened up. A few meters away was a small stream three to four meters wide. On the opposite side of the stream, another ten meters away was another hillside and dense forest.
The water in the stream is very clear, and the deepest point is only half a meter. You can clearly see the small fish fry swimming in the water.
After walking for a while in the forest after the rain, everyone felt a little hot.
Xia Shang looked at Shangguan Chan, who seemed to be out of breath, so he suggested to rest for a few minutes and replenish his water bag.
No one had any objections to Xia Shang's proposal. Shangguan Chan went to the stream and sat down on a smooth stone. Xia Shang was about to go to the stream.
Fetching water, the mountaineer who was already at the stream seemed to have discovered something.
"Master, there is something discovered here."
Seeing Banshanke's serious face, Xia Shang also frowned.
When they arrived at the river, the mountaineer pointed to the stream.
At first Xia Shang didn't find anything, but when he took a closer look, he found traces of blood in the stream.
Because the blood stains have been diluted, it is difficult to see without careful observation. Looking at the place where the water flows downward, the blood stains have been completely washed away and no trace can be found. But if you go upstream and look for it, you can find that the blood stains in the water are getting thicker and thinner.
It's becoming clearer.
Apparently, something was going on upstream of the creek.
According to the description of the mountain guest, as long as you walk up the creek, you will reach Qingshan Residence at the end of the creek. He has also rested on the edge of this creek before, but did not find anything unusual.
This discovery instantly made everyone nervous, and they didn't even bother to rest, so they speeded up the creek.
As everyone got closer and closer to Qingshan Residence, the blood stains in the stream became more and more obvious and numerous.
At first it was just a faint trace of blood, but later it turned into a faint layer of blood, and later on I could feel a faint fishy smell emanating from the stream.
Not long after, a corpse appeared in everyone's sight.
He was a middle-aged man, dressed like a martial artist, but his clothes could not tell what martial art he belonged to.
Xia Shang suspected that he was from the second prince, but it was also possible that he was from another sect in the world besides the Red Flower Society.
At first, Xia Shang didn't believe this speculation, because it was not easy for ordinary Jianghu sects to find him in such deep mountains and forests.
But they soon saw the second, third, and fourth bodies.
These people were dressed differently, and one of them was wearing the clothes of the Dragon and Tiger Gang.
Although the Dragon and Tiger Gang is not well-known in the world, it is one of the gangs that attended the press conference of Famous Sword Villa.
Therefore, it is possible that the people from the Longhu Gang got the news and followed it all the way.
Since one of them is a member of the Longhu Gang, it also proves that the others may also be disciples of some small sects in the world.
This situation made Xia Shang a little frightened. It seems that the tracking methods of the Jianghu people are really not simple.
, actually dared to find Qingshan Residence before Xia Shang, and could gather so many people?
It seems that the situation around here is getting more and more complicated.
Another puzzling point is why these people died here?
Judging from the situation nearby, there must have been a fight here.
But the more specific confidence is unknown.
Until Shangguan Chan suddenly found a small arrow stuck in the mud beside the stream.
When Xia Shang saw Shangguanchan picking up the small arrow from the ground with a frown on his face, he suddenly understood. At the same time, he glanced at Shangguanchan even more worriedly.
This is the arrow branch used in the compound bow. Except for the people of the Red Flower Society, no gang will use such a weapon.
This means that it was the people from the Red Flower Society who fought with these people and killed many people.
Fortunately, no one known to Shangguan Chan has been found yet, which proves that the Red Flower Society has taken a lot of advantage in this battle.
But before the string hanging in my heart was loosened, something unexpected happened.
The first person who noticed you was Wu Changan in front of you. Xia Shang behind him saw that he had obviously changed. He jumped into a stream full of blood and dragged a person out of the water in the middle of the stream.
This man was wearing the same clothes as Wu Changan, and he was obviously from the Red Flower Society.
Shangguan Chan also became nervous, quickened his pace and rushed over: "Brother Wu, who is this?"
Wu Changan turned the body over and saw the other person's appearance clearly, and couldn't help being surprised: "It's Mr. Jia!"
"Impossible! How could Mr. Jia..."
Shangguan Chan looked unbelieving, but when he saw the man's appearance, the rest of his words were stuck in his throat and he could no longer say them.
Xia Shang didn't care about these people, but he couldn't see Shangguanchan being so worried. He hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What's going on? This person is very familiar with you?"
Shangguan Chan didn't want to answer at first, but looked at Xia Shang, tried to calm down, and took a deep breath: "He is an elder of our Red Flower Club. His kung fu is very advanced, even better than my brother's. But... he even...
Mr. Jia is still in the battle..."
Hua Wuguo was silent all the time, and naturally she was in a bad mood. She turned her head and saw a farther place, and suddenly exclaimed: "Master, there are many people over there... they all seem to be wearing our clothes...
