The moment he saw the scene in front of him, Wang Lin finally knew why he felt a little uneasy at that moment.

Because the sky here is too bright.

The route forward by Wang Lin and others is blocked by a mountain between Fenglin Village. Only by going around the foot of the mountain can you see Maple Forest Village, which lives at the foot of the mountain.

Before he rounded the corner, Wang Lin felt that the sky in front of him seemed strangely bright. But now that he had turned around the foot of the mountain and had the entire Maplewood Village in front of him, he realized where this strange light came from.

I saw that the entire Fenglin Village buildings were now enveloped in the flames of blazing fire.

There was no one in the entire Maple Forest Village, but there were countless lifeless faces, staring at the two to three hundred Daxia elites in front of them with miserable expressions in the air.

He seemed to be lamenting his unfair fate, and also seemed to be complaining that the soldiers in front of him had arrived too late.

In Fenglin Village, there was originally a tall and towering tree. But now, the thick branches stretching out around the big tree were already filled with dead bodies hung with hemp ropes.

Men, women, old people, children.

The corpses, regardless of gender, old or young, were all hung neatly on the trees. In fact, their identities can be summed up in three words. And the identities of these three characters were also the cause of their tragic deaths.

Daxia people.

Just because they were the people of Daxia, they were slaughtered by the barbarians so cruelly, and now they are still hung in the air and burned by fire. As for where the barbarians who did all this are now, it has completely become a mystery. Because Fenglin Village, where the barbarians were originally stationed in front of them, has been completely reduced to a lifeless and empty village.

"Dad! Mom!"

Zhu Wanwan's shrill scream once again broke the tranquility of the night. She looked at the corpses burned by the fire and slowly stretched out her hands, but couldn't catch anything.

She even wanted to ride her horse into the fire scene, but Dai Tianye, who was riding a horse to catch up, grabbed the reins and held Zhu Wanwan in place. The raging fire in front of me burned this once beautiful village like hell. If you rush into the fire at this time, you will not be able to change anything except being devoured by the fire.

"Miss Wanwan, please wake up! Don't worry about leaving the green hills without firewood. Only if you are alive can you avenge your parents!" Looking at Zhu Wanwan who almost jumped into the sea of ​​fire, Dai Tianye said sincerely roared inwardly.

The elites of Great Xia, who had just shown themselves to be victorious, were now as if they had been beaten by frost, and instantly fell into incomparable despair. Even facing this Hu army of less than a hundred people, they still felt a sense of powerlessness as if they had punched the cotton.

"Be careful, don't be ambushed!"

Na Ye, who had already brought Zhu Wanwan back to the team and settled him in place, showed a professional attitude at this time. He yelled at the soldiers around him, and then issued an order to the troops to retreat.

Although he was embarrassed, this was a choice he had to make now.

At present, Fenglin Village is burned down, and the barbarians in the village are missing.

But everything in front of them proved that the Hu people had known before that they were coming here tonight, and quickly made a plan to set fire to the village and then retreat from the village. If the Hu people have any other plans, staying here for a long time will only promote the occurrence of danger.

Wang Lin's eyes turned cold and he looked at Zhu Wanwan at the end of the team again.

At this time, Zhu Wanwan's pretty face was shining brightly, and it could be seen that two lines of tears had just been shed. However, this did not dispel Wang Lin's doubts about Zhu Wanwan.

The plan to attack Fenglin Village tonight was only decided towards the end of the afternoon, and the action was already taken in the evening. In such a short period of time, it is not an exaggeration to say that it was a thunderous method. There is almost no possibility that the plan will be accidentally spread through rumors.

The only people who leaked the plan were the people who were there since the plan was made!

And there are only three such people.

Dai Tianye, Zhu Wanwan, and Wang Lin himself.

Between Dai Tianye and Zhu Wanwan, it seems obvious who is more likely to leak the plan.

"Prince Lin, are you still doubting Miss Wanwan?"

On the way back, Dai Tianye approached Wang Lin and asked quietly in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"It's not a suspicion, it's almost certain. Otherwise, the leak of the news cannot be explained." Wang Lin said lightly.

"The general has also thought about this matter, but Zhu Wanwan is a Daxia woman after all. And the matter of Fenglin Village being massacred has been investigated by spies in the past two days and it has been found to be true," said Dai Tianye There was a rare look of doubt and confusion on his face: "General, I really don't understand. Is there anyone who helps the barbarians after killing their family members?"

"It is true that Fenglin Village was massacred, but it is not certain whether Zhu Wanwan is from Fenglin Village."

"We all had preconceived ideas before, tying Zhu Wanwan and Fenglin Village together to investigate whether what happened in Fenglin Village was true."

"I have thought of a possibility. You said that Zhu Wanwan could not have massacred the men, women, and children in Maple Forest Village with the Hu people at the beginning, so he was so concerned about what happened in Maple Forest Village. It's like witnessing it with her own eyes. Even the name Zhu Wanwan may mean that she personally killed a girl and made up an identity for herself that is the same as the girl."

"After all, everyone in Fenglin Village is dead now, who can stand up and testify against Zhu Wanwan? The person she cried just before the fire was actually someone else's father and mother?"

Wang Lin's series of reasoning made Dai Tianye feel chills in his back.

He looked at Zhu Wanwan who was looking forward blankly. She seemed to have been a little absent-minded since she just saw the terrifying fire.

But I don't know if he was affected by what Wang Lin said just now, but now Dai Tianye, who was looking at Zhu Wanwan, discovered another detail.

You know, for people who are riding horses for the first time or even those who don’t often ride horses, their movements are usually very stiff after getting on the horse. Not to mention looking blankly while riding a horse, even if you are concentrating on riding a horse, there will be an awkward feeling.

But now, although Zhu Wanwan was riding a specially trained military horse, her riding proficiency was enough to arouse Dai Tianye's suspicion.

There are no horses in Daxia, and even these military horses largely come from the tribute and trade of Dawan Kingdom. Where did Zhu Wanwan, an ordinary farm girl, get the opportunity to ride a horse?

This suspicion, accompanied by a slightly depressed atmosphere in the army, returned to Daxia's military camp overnight.
