The moon was dark and the wind was high, and I couldn't see my fingers.
The rain in spring comes as soon as it comes, the drizzle keeps falling, the night breeze dances gently, and it is slightly cold.
On the official road from Niujiao Town to Xinlin County, in the dark night, Yunjing walked forward with an oil-paper umbrella in hand. His feet did not touch the ground, and he covered a hundred or ten meters in one step, like a ghost.
Walking on the road on a rainy night, not even a corner of his body was muddy or wet.
Along the way, everything within a radius of ten kilometers on both sides of the road was reflected in his mind.
He has walked this road many times, but never as carefully as this time.
In the afternoon, I heard at home that my sister Yun Xi¡¯s little sister had not heard from her since she went to the county town. She contacted the case of missing children in Niujiao Town, so Yun Jing came to check on her along the way after her family members were all asleep.
"It's best to gain something, and solve the problem by the way. It doesn't matter if you don't gain anything, it won't waste much time anyway."
The raindrops were ticking on the oil-paper umbrella, and the trees on both sides of the road were dancing in the night wind. To be honest, in the dead of night, walking alone in the wilderness, I really don¡¯t dare to walk alone in the wilderness if I don¡¯t have the courage. I have a poor psychological quality. People, in this situation, I guess I always feel like there is something following me behind me
Soon after, Yunjing came to the three-way intersection in the middle of the road. The inn was still there. The pace of this era was very slow. After many years, the inn was still the same, and it had not changed much from before.
There were several carriages parked outside the inn, and the dim lights inside the inn came out through the windows, casting swaying light and shadow on the muddy ground.
There were obviously guests, a large number of people, and there was the faint sound of changing glasses and chatting.
Yunjing didn¡¯t stop here. The inn was not his goal. After noticing that there was nothing worthy of attention here, Yunjing continued to move towards the county seat.
After leaving the inn for more than ten miles, Yunjing stopped at a place.
The road here is lined with dense woods for a long time, and the sounds of various animals can be heard in the darkness.
In the darkness, Yun Jing lowered his head slightly and looked at the muddy ground in front of him. With a thought, the mud and water separated, and a piece of wood splinter the size of a finger flew up.
This piece of wood is obviously not a naturally fallen branch, but a broken piece of some kind of man-made wooden appliance, maybe a carriage, maybe something else, who knows.
¡°It¡¯s hard to tell from this fragment that there was a fight and killing in this place not long ago, but¡±
With his heart murmuring, Yunjing scanned the surroundings. As his eyes moved, pieces of inconspicuous pieces soon flew up and appeared in front of him.
¡°These things include rags, broken metal arrowheads, broken iron pieces, and even dark red soil
"Not long ago, in the past two days, there should have been a brief fighting here. The traces were obviously cleaned up briefly, but some details were not taken care of properly. And judging from these remnants, the people involved in the fighting were all It is done by people who have certain skills and are practicing martial arts, otherwise there would not be any fragments of the sword left behind."
Yunjing analyzed it inexplicably through the things he found.
Then he looked at a tree on the side of the road. There were marks of two knife cuts on the tree, and a thread hung on the cracked bark. Yunjing deduced that someone should be being hunted, so I leaned against the tree to avoid it, but accidentally my clothes got hung up and left lint.
There are many car thieves and road bullies in this era. Just based on the things in front of him, Yun Jing can't tell whether they are related to the disappearance of the children in Niujiao Town.
Finally, Yunjing raised his head slightly and faced the distant woods on the left.
In that direction, two miles away from the official road, there were traces of burning, and the ground was scorched black, but the burned things had turned into fly ash, leaving no residue worth paying attention to. To the left of the burning trace was a white dome. In the forest, there were some bones scattered over a large area, which were obviously what wild beasts were talking about.
"Maybe someone was fighting here two days ago. The traces were simply cleaned up. All the items were taken to the depths of the jungle and burned. The corpses were also dumped in the wilderness and became the food of wild beasts. Were all traces of the corpses destroyed?"
Thoughts flashed in his mind, but it was still the same sentence. Based on these alone, Yunjing could not determine whether it was related to the incident of missing children in Niujiao Town. After all, robberies and killings in the wild were too common in this era. The road was difficult to travel and it was unsafe to travel far away. , which is why many people never leave their hometown in their entire lives.
After stopping for a while, Yunjing continued to move forward.
Along the way, he noticed traces of fighting and killing many times, but the time was short and he didn¡¯t pay much attention to it.
Soon after, Xinlin County appeared in his sight, rising into the sky.Well, unless our target appears, this is just a normal inn."
"That boy, I think there's nothing wrong with him except for his good skin. Is it worth reminding the boss?", the 'little two' scratched his head and asked.
The skinny man said: "The boss is the boss. If he hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have thought about it. The boss said, that guy doesn't look so polite, but he actually hides it deeply. Not to mention other things, he is the only one." People walking at night, do ordinary scholars have such courage? Furthermore, did Brother Ming notice that it was raining outside, and as for him, except for the mud around his shoes, there were half a speck of mud on his body? This is enough to prove his skill. He¡¯s so clever, plus he doesn¡¯t have any calluses on his hands. Scholars, there are no calluses when holding a pen all year round. What does this mean? It means that he is at least a late-stage master who has cultivated his internal strength!"
Hearing what he said, the waiter suddenly said: "I see, no wonder the boss specially asked you to remind him, forget it, never mind him, he is not our target, there is no need to provoke him."
¡°Okay, Brother Ming, we¡¯re almost ready. You can help deliver it,¡± the thin man said, bringing a tray and a bucket with hot water.
It was the waiter's job, but he didn't complain, but said melancholy: "When will this kind of life end? I should be living a carefree life, but how could I have fallen into this situation? Not only do I have to serve people, but I also have to Or do you want to do something unconscionable and harmful to nature"
"Shut up if you don't want to die, be careful that walls have ears," the bald man said with a sudden glare.
The waiter immediately shut up and said no more.
They don¡¯t know that the walls really have ears
