Keyboard Immortal Chapter 810: panic
Hearing that shrill cry, the entire camp immediately boiled, thinking that there was an invasion from another place, one by one grabbed their own weapons and rushed out.
Bi Linglong and Zaan next to the camp also woke up instantly. Bi Linglong found that she had slept on Zaan's body all night, and her pretty face suddenly turned as red as an apple.
But she is a crown princess after all. She doesn't worry about gains and losses like ordinary little girls. She immediately realized the business and stood up and looked in the direction of the voice.
It's a pity that she fell asleep in that position one night, which caused her footsteps to be sluggish. She stood up abruptly and was too fast. She felt a little dizzy for a while, and her legs were weak, and she was about to fall to the ground.
Zuan hurried to support her, and I have to say, this woman is really soft.
But he immediately calmed down: "The voice seems to be coming from outside the camp."
At this time, Pu Duandiao hurried to report: "Report to the Crown Princess, a dead body was found outside the camp. It seems to be Bichang."
His eyes fell on Zu An's hand supporting Bi Linglong's waist, his scalp was a little numb, what's the matter with the Crown Princess, it seems that there is no resistance at all?
The prince is still in the tent next to him. Are you stupid and you openly cuckold him?
But he didn't like the prince either. The guards liked this beautiful and noble princess more privately, thinking that her marriage to the prince was like a flower on cow dung.
However, the dung family is also the crown prince. Don't the crown princess know the consequences of this?
Forget it, there are too many nasty things in the royal family, it's nothing, just don't see it.
He and Jiao Sigun analyzed yesterday, whether it's because of their relationship with Zaun or their own interests, it's best if they don't see it.
Otherwise, once exposed, it would be easy to be silenced by the crown princess or the Bi family. Even if they were dealt with, the emperor would probably execute their insiders for the sake of the royal family.
In the final analysis, they are all small people, and their fate cannot be determined by themselves, so it is better not to be greedy and to go in.
Bi Linglong hurriedly moved to the side, freeing Zaan's hand without revealing a trace, but when she heard the name in his mouth, Hua Rong paled for a moment: "What!"
"What's wrong?" Zaan was a little curious. The name sounds like someone from the Bi family. Could it be her relative.
Bi Linglong's face sank like water: "Yesterday, the person I sent back to the entrance of the secret realm to deliver a message was Bichang!"
This time Zaan is also moved. The person who sent the letter is dead?
What's even more bizarre is that he was going back, and the large group was going forward, two diametrically opposite directions, why did that person die in front of them?
Bi Linglong was obviously aware of this, and there was a chill on her back.
A group of people hurried to the scene of the incident. Zhao Xi and others were already there. When they saw the two of them, they came and saluted: "I have seen the Crown Princess."
As for Zaun, they are automatically ignored.
Zuan quietly looked at the corpse in midair, with a familiar face, as expected, it was the one sent back to report yesterday.
At this moment, he was stuck on a branch, his face twisted
, the eyes bulged out, and blood and tears were left behind. With the pale skin of the corpse, the whole person looked like a ghost, like watching a horror movie. No wonder that person made such a shrill scream when he saw it before.
"Who killed him!" Liu Xian's voice trembled a little, and he subconsciously shrank behind his cousin Gao Ying.
Meng Pan pointed his toes and jumped onto a branch as light as a swallow. He checked the condition of the corpse and said in a deep voice, "Judging from the wound on his chest and the color of the blood, this is not the scene of the crime. People are killed and then inserted here."
Seeing him inspecting the corpse as usual, Zaan was secretly surprised. These children of aristocratic families are not all scumbags. It is no wonder that they can be selected by each family to participate in such an important task.
"What I'm more concerned about is why his body appeared here. He went in the opposite direction yesterday, and it stands to reason that he would never appear in front of us." Zhao Xi also asked Zaan and the others just now. doubts.
"Could it be that a ghost hit the wall, he thought he was walking out, but he actually lost his way?" Pei You analyzed.
"Impossible," the Gu brothers said in unison, "they are scouts carefully selected by the Bi family. Maybe they are not the best, but they have very rich reconnaissance experience and have survived countless battlefields. , how could he have lost his way?"
"Yes, we didn't see any terrain like a maze along the way." Zhao Xi also nodded.
"Could it be some kind of beast? I heard that there is a kind of butcher bird that likes to stick its prey on branches like this." Liu Xian said. Still a lot.
Meng Pan shook his head: "Impossible, if it is a butcher bird, he should have pierced claws or beak marks on his body, but although there are many wounds on his body, there are no similar marks. I found that he did not appear to be mortally wounded."
"There is no fatal injury, so how did he die?"
"Could it be a ghost?"
…
A group of people suddenly screamed, only to feel the chill behind them.
At this time, Zaun's voice sounded: "It's not that there is no fatal injury, it is just that his fatal injury is hidden. He must have been directly shocked by someone and broke his heart, and the reason why he rubbed it on the branch is that In order to cover up the injury of the chest and the heart, the other wounds are all blindfolds.”
Having been an embroidered messenger for so long, this basic case-solving ability still exists.
Meng Pan was shocked and hurriedly re-examined: "Yes, his heart is severely damaged, and it seems that he was fatally shot by someone."
Others were initially admiring that Zaun was not as sloppy as before, and everyone was shocked when they heard this sentence: "One blow kills?"
Bi Linglong said in a deep voice, "Bichang is a rank five. He is alert and good at concealing his life. He can kill him with one blow. The murderer's cultivation is at least one level higher than his."
Because the person who reported the letter is very important, she chose Bichang specially yesterday, but she didn't expect it to end like this.
"Huh?" Hearing the Crown Princess's analysis, everyone's faces were extremely strange. This time, there were only so many people in the team who had more than rank six cultivations. Could it be that the murderer was among these people.
Bi Linglong was keenly aware of the change in the atmosphere in the field, and then said: "You don't have to think about it, the murderer is probably an outsider."
"But according to the information, there are no aboriginal people in this secret realm, and with Master Bi and the others watching, it is impossible to let other people in." Zhao Xi is rough and fine.
Bi Linglong said: "Let's not be suspicious until there is no evidence, lest we fall into infighting."
Pei You asked: "Then should we send someone back to inform us about the situation here? I always feel that something is not right."
Bi Linglong gave him a deep look, then looked at Zaan: "Lord Zu, what do you think?"
Zuan knew the meaning in her eyes. She had always been suspicious of the Pei family's motives. During the chat last night, she mentioned that she should pay attention to Pei You several times, so she replied: "The other party deliberately turned his body into this horrible picture. The strange state is to create panic in our hearts; and in the current situation, either our large troops will return, but this means that the mission will fail. If we continue to send scouts back to report the news, it is just a tactic to add fuel to hiding in the dark. Every one of the people at the place is defeated and gradually consumes our strength.”
"But in case we don't pass on the news, if something happens to us in the end, no one outside will know the specific situation." Pei You frowned.
Zuan said: "Don't worry, since the other party deliberately chose this panic-making method to split us, it proved that his strength is not enough to face us head-on, so he made a slant, and we just need to be careful in the future."
The commotion in the crowd who heard his analysis calmed down.
The next group of people continued on their way, but today everyone's mood was not as high as yesterday, and everyone looked solemn.
Fortunately, nothing happened for the next two days, and everyone was gradually relieved.
But Zaun's expression became solemn, because at this time he had entered the depths of the mountain, and he was getting closer and closer to the red danger areas on the map.
So he started changing his course, trying to avoid those red areas as much as possible.
But because of the detour, it took half a day to get there in a straight line, and it took two or three days in the end. How can these young masters endure this kind of suffering.
There are many complaints, and many people even complain to the prince and princess.
The straight-faced Zhao Xi is dissatisfied: "Prince Concubine, Zuan is too much of a fuss?"
"That's right, he kept saying that it's dangerous here, where did you encounter any danger along the way?" Gu Xing added fuel to his jealousy.
"Continue to go around like this, when will we find the Tiantian Biyue Jiaojiao and when will we be able to complete the mission." Meng Pan muttered.
"Hey, I miss the warm and fragrant nephrite jade in the capital so much. I sleep in the tent every day, and my back is so numb." Liu Xian said while rubbing his shoulder.
…
"Okay, everyone must trust Master Zu, because he led the way and we were not in danger." Bi Linglong tried his best to calm everyone down.
However, things changed soon, because the scouts who went out to explore the way disappeared!
