When something goes wrong, there must be a monster.
Hearing what Ban Runde and Luo Liangping said, Duan Wenjun's brows furrowed again. "Old Luo, take me to that canyon to have a look; Old Ban, you stay and assist Sister Yun in statistics and assessment results."
As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Shoucheng also said, "Wenjun, let me go with you!"
"It's not a bad idea to let Lao Qi follow!" Yuan Gagon also spoke up.
Naturally, the situation in the mountains was unknown, and with the two masters following them, it would be much safer, so Duan Wenjun did not object to their proposal.
Yun Batian also wanted to go, but he just moved his lips a few times, but did not speak in the end.
She knew that Duan Wenjun was very concerned about things in the mountains, and he was also very concerned about assessment matters.
Luo Liangping led the way, followed closely by Duan Wenjun, Mo Shoucheng and Yuan Gungun.
It has to be said that Yun Batian and the others must have carefully considered their choice of this path for training.
Whether it's traveling through the jungle or traveling through the mountains, it's very similar to what he mentioned before. There are even several cliffs that need to be climbed several meters high.
In his previous life, Duan Wenjun would have thought this was child's play, but with his current body, it would be almost impossible to complete the twenty kilometers.
However, with the two masters Yuan Gungun and Mo Shoucheng leading him, it didn't take much effort.
The sun gradually climbed into the sky, and the four of them finally arrived at the canyon Luo Liangping mentioned.
As soon as they arrived at the mouth of the canyon, they smelled a strong smell of blood.
Everyone observed the surroundings vigilantly and found nothing strange. Luo Liangping led them to the thatched house.
There are only seven or eight thatched houses in total, connected together, occupying the open space at the end of the canyon.
At one end of the thatched house, there was a loess bag, which was where Luo Liangping and the others buried the bones.
The thatched house was still filled with the strong smell of blood, which was stronger than at the mouth of the canyon.
There were only some simple furniture in the hut, and they all looked very old.
There is a bow hanging on the wall of one of the thatched houses, and several animal skins hanging in the corner.
It seemed that Luo Liangping and the others had guessed correctly. The owners of these thatched houses should be hunters in the mountains.
However, whether it was on the walls of the thatched house, on the furniture, or on the ground, there were blood stains everywhere, and a lot of the blood still looked very fresh and had not completely dried up.
It seemed to be showing that this massacre had just happened not long ago.
Yuan Gungun squatted down on the side, carefully staring at the blood stains on the wall and the ground, his brows furrowed into a "chuan" shape.
"There are some bloodstains here not from last night, but from the past few days." After a long time, he finally spoke.
Duan Wenjun was stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly squatted down. "Yes, the blood stains in the corners have long dried up, and they are definitely not from last night. But the color is still scarlet, and it should be from the past few days."
"Could it be the blood shed by these hunters when they killed wild animals?" Luo Liangping didn't understand.
"No!" Yuan Gungun interrupted him directly. "The most taboo thing for hunters in the mountains is the smell of blood in the house. They think it will bring bad luck to people. Therefore, as long as they catch prey, they will definitely kill it now." Clean the outside and then bring it in for storage.”
Duan Wenjun nodded, "Lao Luo, go and see if there is a water source nearby, and is there a place to clean up wild animals nearby?"
"I'll go take a look." Luo Liangping waved his hand. "I remember there is a well behind this house, and there is a huge bluestone slab next to it. We seemed to have seen it yesterday."
After saying that, Luo Liangping walked out of the house and walked towards the back.
"Let's go look for it too." Yuan Gagon stood up. "If someone was killed here a few days ago, maybe we can find a new grave."
Duan Wenjun nodded.
He had also heard that people walking in the mountains believed that if they encountered the body of a dead person, they would bury it.
If they are not buried, their ghosts will easily haunt them and they will never have peace.
This is why, even though Luo Liangping and Banderun suspected that the people who died in the house were the ones who attacked the camp last night, they still wanted to bury them.
However, as soon as they walked out of the house, Luo Liangping's exclamation came from behind the house, "Why is that blind bear's body missing?"
Hearing the exclamation, Duan Wenjun and the others also rushed out.
Luo Liangping looked puzzled. He said that when they left yesterday, the body of the blind man was placed on the bluestone behind the house.
At this moment, the bluestone was empty, and there was no trace of the body.
If some wild beast smelled the smell of blood and dragged away the blind bear's body, almost no wild beast could drag away the thousands of kilograms of body.
If it was eaten by some animal, at least there would be some remains left on the ground.
In this deep mountain and old forest, the body of Blind Bear disappeared without a trace. This is obviously not normal.
Suddenly, everyone became alert.
Yuan Gungun suddenly made a silencing gesture, signaling everyone to go back to the house quickly.
However, when they just rounded the thatched house, as the whizzing sound continued, the sound of countless sharp arrows piercing the air came.
Yuan Gungun flashed, already flicking his sleeves, and shot down the flying arrows, while Mo Shoucheng disappeared on the cliff with a few ups and downs.
The arrows on the mountain suddenly stopped.
Followed by bursts of shouts.
In the bushes on the hillside of the canyon, a group of people slowly walked out.
There were about ten people in this group, all men in their twenties and thirties. They were wearing animal skins and their faces were smeared with mud.
Holding various weapons in their hands, they formed a circle and walked slowly.
In the center of the circle, Mo Shoucheng's sword was resting on the neck of a tall and strong young man.
The others looked very frightened and were staring at them closely.
"They must have been the ones who attacked us yesterday." Luo Liangping picked up the arrows on the ground and said, "Our brothers who were hit by arrows outside the temporary camp were hit by this kind of arrow."
At this moment, Yuan Gungun, who was standing next to Duan Wenjun, moved.
As his figure flashed past, clanking sounds continued, and the weapons in the hands of those surrounding Mo Shoucheng fell to the ground one after another.
Everyone's expressions changed drastically.
Staring at Mo Shoucheng and Yuangagongun, their faces were full of horror.
They couldn't help but be frightened by this.
In just a few breaths, this handsome man dodged the rain of swords they shot and put the sword on the neck of their leader with just a few moves.
And this man in white is even more terrifying.
They only felt their eyes blur, and then the hands holding the weapons went numb, and their weapons fell to the ground one after another.
By the time they reacted, Yuan Gagon had already retreated to Duan Wenjun's side.
Mo Shoucheng also smiled lightly, sheathed his sword, and retreated to Duan Wenjun's side.
He just kidnapped the leader of this group of people, just to force this group of people to show up after him.
"Why don't you kill us?" The leader who had just been held hostage by Mo Shoucheng finally spoke.
"Who are you? Why do you think we want to kill you?" Duan Wenjun was stunned when he heard this.
"Aren't you the same group as the bandits we killed yesterday?" The leader was also confused. "Aren't you here to avenge them?"
