Da da da...
The rustling of horseshoes drives the carriage hub to rotate steadily
On both sides, dozens of armor-piercing cavalry surrounded them.
In the car, Li Xuan lifted the curtain and looked outside.
The twilight is like blood, and the remaining light falls on the cold earth in the depth of winter, showing an unspeakable desolation.
Li Xuan sniffed his nose, and there seemed to be a smell of blood in the air.
The news like "Many people died in the official road in the north" was like a cold hand grasping his heart, which frightened him who was used to living in a prosperous and gentle village.
Death awakened his vigilance.
Those who come are not good, and those who are good will not come.
Who dares to kill people without restraint around here?
What else are they going to do? !
...
The officials in Xiongshan and Chiyue counties were alerted, and each mobilized 500 county soldiers to rush to the murder site.
Obviously, the two county officials thought it might be the remnants of the bandits on Honghua Mountain who were responsible.
Those bandits killed people to demonstrate and to tell them that "blood debt must be paid with blood."
Naturally, they want to exterminate these "ground rats" again.
It was precisely because there were county soldiers with relatively good equipment that Li Xuan dared to drag dozens of cavalry from home to go with him.
On the other side, the county lieutenant of Xiongshan County also welcomed Young Master Li and the Li family warriors to go.
You must know that the armors worn by the warriors of the Li family are better than them. The Li family is a fierce dragon in Xiongshan County, and the county magistrate does not dare to provoke it easily.
"How much longer?" Li Xuan asked outside the window.
Soon a cavalryman approached and said: "Young Master, there are still two hours. We will not arrive until Xu Shi."
After saying that, the cavalryman pinched the horse's belly and moved aside to protect the carriage in the center.
Li Xuan lowered the curtain.
Two more hours?
That seemed to be his hallucination.
There is no smell of blood in the air, it's his psychological effect.
If he were five or six years old, he might still be excited, because at that time he felt that since he was in another world, there might be some way to practice and live forever.
But now, all that was left in his heart was solemnity and nervousness.
"Xiao Yao." Li Xuan looked at the cold girl sitting opposite and asked, "Do you think our Dayin Dynasty has any super powerful mysterious forces? Or..."
He waved and motioned for her to sit over.
Yaohua didn't move. She seemed to be able to read minds. She saw what Li Xuan wanted to ask at a glance and said coldly: "There is no ghost."
Li Xuandao: "Could it be that you are ignorant and have never seen it before?"
There was a speechless expression visible to the naked eye on Yao Hua's pretty face.
Although she has practiced martial arts all year round, she is very thin, as thin as a clothes rack, and even her long legs are only a little thicker than firewood.
Because of her thinness, her collarbones and side contours of her face are all exposed.
On her delicate oval face, her thin lips are often pursed, and her eyes under her eyebrows are sharp and melancholy.
She is a lovable lady who looks like she will fall down when the wind blows, but she is actually quite good at shooting.
The carriage became quiet again.
The blood-like evening sunlight moved the curtains, casting a flickering light on the dimly lit car.
There is an inexplicable eerie feeling in the air.
Li Xuan's Adam's apple rolled, he suddenly stood up and sat down opposite.
Yaohua still didn't move, she just tightened her gun and said: "If I want to move you, I need to break through the Li family cavalry escorting the carriage, and then attack the carriage before the Xiongshan County soldiers in front return to support.
And I'm still in the carriage.
If I don't die, you won't die. "
After that, she added: "Young Master, I just want to tell you that you are very safe here."
Seeing that Li Xuan was still a little suspicious, she added: "I have walked at night, slept in graveyards, and entered evil villages. If there were ghosts in the world, I would have bumped into them long ago. What's more, during the years I walked around the world, I only I’ve heard of ghosts, but I’ve never seen a real ghost.”
Li Xuandao: "Then do you believe this is the work of the remnants of Honghua Mountain?"
Yaohua shook her head and said, "Who knows."
...
...
Xu Shi.
The bright moon is in the sky.
Corpses were wrapped in straw mats and lay neatly on the wasteland at the foot of Honghua Mountain.
The moonlight and torches illuminated the cold light field.
Li Xuan looked at the corpses.
Farther away, there were county soldiers moving the corpses from afar to place them in one place for easy identification.
The smell of corpses permeated everywhere, which was frightening and nauseating. It could be described as physical and mental torture.
At a glance, Li Xuan saw that there were two to three hundred corpses in front of him. This was not a small number.
At this moment, a Li family cavalryman came from afar, dismounted, ran to Li Xuan's side and whispered: "Sir, there is a situation ahead."
Yaohua suddenly clenched her spear, her thin body tensed instantly, and her whole body exuded a fierce aura.
The Li family cavalry smiled bitterly and said: "It's not that there are enemies, but two dead people were found."
Li Xuanqi asked: "What kind of dead person?"
The Li family cavalryman said: "The 'Electric Light Sword' Jing Yuyan, the 'Opening Hand' is the best in the world."
Yao Hua's face changed and she said from the side: "Young Master, these two are both famous masters."
Li Xuan asked: "How does it compare to you?"
Yaohua shook her head gently.
Li Xuan was overjoyed.
Yaohua said: "I'm not as good as that."
Li Xuan:...
The Li family cavalryman said solemnly: "Young master, these two people are well-known in Fuzhou. They are almost masters, but I didn't expect that they would die here. It seems like..."
The cavalryman lowered his voice and said: "It's not something that the remnants of Honghua Mountain can do."
Li Xuan took a deep breath and said, "Go and have a look."
...
After a while, Li Xuan came to the distance surrounded by a group of Li family masters.
There, it was already surrounded.
The blazing red torch was held in a man's hand, exuding a cold luster, illuminating the simple armor of the county soldiers and the two unrealistic corpses in the middle.
A middle-aged warrior in the middle heard the sound of horse hooves, looked sideways, and came forward to greet him. He shouted from a distance: "My wise nephew."
This middle-aged warrior is Shan Jian, the county captain of Xiongshan County, and Li Xuan's second aunt is his wife, so the title of "good nephew" is well deserved.
In fact, the forces in Xiongshan County are intertwined, and aristocratic families and government officials have long been connected.
The imaginary scene of competing with each other and fighting each other did not exist.
When everyone has money, we can make money together, share the benefits together, and be harmonious to make money. What’s the point of fighting and killing people and wasting their lives?
It can be said that when Li Xuan walks in this county, the big shots in the county will always be related to him.
"Sir Shan!" Li Xuan glanced at Shan Jian. He was a rugged man with a leopard head, who was usually quite reckless.
Li Xuan cupped his hands as a salute, and then walked inside.
The county soldiers guarding outside naturally recognized the eldest young master of the Li family. They would not stop anyone who tried to stop him. As Li Xuan approached, they automatically separated into different lanes.
Li Xuan walked closer and looked at the two corpses.
At this sight, I was so horrified that I almost lost my soul.
But they saw that the abdomens of the two corpses were open. In addition to the heads, the internal organs and even the bones of the limbs had been hollowed out!
And the surrounding weeds were sprinkled with blood that exploded.
The blood had solidified and only stained the surrounding ground red.
Looking from a distance, it looks like two human scalps lying on a red carpet, which is as weird as it gets.
Li Xuan took two steps forward, squatted down, and subconsciously picked up some bloody soil on the ground with his hands.
Suddenly, a hot breath came from the soil and went straight to his fingers, causing him pain.
"Why!"
Shan Jian hurriedly pulled him away, then took the leather water bag from one side, pulled off the stopper, and poured cold water on his fingers.
Under the impact of the rushing cold water, Li Xuan felt that the pain on his fingers had eased a bit, but when he spread it out, he saw that it was as if his hand had been rubbed on a hot iron plate, and it turned red.
"Good nephew, good nephew, this blood... although it has solidified, it is still hot for some reason. I suspect it may contain fire poison.
You take an antidote pill first, and then don’t stay here any longer and go back to the county at dawn. "
Li Xuan nodded.
...
That night.
He and Yaohua lived in a large tent, surrounded by patrolling county soldiers and Li family warriors who kept vigil at night.
Yaohua did not enter the tent, but stood guard at the entrance of the tent with a gun.
And Li Xuan was not in the mood to sleep with her tonight.
He was tossing and turning, blisters already forming on his index finger, and bursts of burning pain.
Many questions and fears, as well as concern for his eldest sister, lingered in his mind, making it difficult for him to sleep.
As time passed, around midnight, Li Xuan suddenly had hallucinations in front of his eyes.
But he clearly had his eyes closed at this time.
Li Xuan was stunned and opened his eyes. Those words were still there.
He continued to close his eyes, but the words were still there.
'This... this is not an illusion. '
Li Xuan looked intently.
【Li Xuan】
[Realm: Not in the flow]
[Demon point: 1]
[Strength: 6/10]
[Agility: 5/10]
[Physique: 7/10]
【Spirit: 6/10】
And then there is a row of strange blood-colored grids.
These grids are like the "equipment columns" that Li Xuan saw when playing games in his previous life.
There are nine blood-colored grids in total, eight of which are gray and dark, and the only bright first grid holds "a drop of blood".
Next to this drop of blood is a message: Demonic blood (incomplete, to be improved), which can be activated or withdrawn at any time.

Attachment: I originally planned to write again in the middle of the month, but I found that I am not used to not writing something every day, so I posted it on a whim.
This book is still updated at 5pm every day. Please support me, thank you!
