the first god

Chapter 342 Cloud Cliff
"Qi Xian, why do you always call him Grandpa Wang, old man?" The girl looked at the boy and said, but the boy named Qi Xian didn't care.

"Anyway, it's impolite, you can't call it that in the future, otherwise" the girl said angrily, "how about it?" Qi Xian laughed.The girl couldn't think of a word for a while, she stomped her feet and stood up and was about to get off the car, Qi Xian saw it and hurriedly pulled her back, "Yin Xue, don't worry, listen to me that I call it that for a reason."

After saying this, the girl was not in a hurry to get out of the car, she turned her head to look at the boy and said, "Then tell me why?" Qi Xian pulled Yin Xue back to the seat and said, "You know, old man Wang is our family. You are an old man, I think this is kind; and you can call me Grandpa Wang, I have had a grandfather before, so it’s a bit messy to call me again, isn’t it?” Instead, Yin Xue chuckled, “What nonsense, let’s go down to eat, I’m So hungry."

"You go down first, I have something else to do." Qi Xian said, he did not know where to find out a ledger, and opened it.Yin Xue leaned over curiously: "What account book are you looking at?" "This is the list of old man Wang's goods this time. I will settle the account first and ask him to look at it. I didn't come out for sightseeing. "Qi seemed interested.

Yin Xue shook her head, got out of the car by herself, and muttered, "It's fine if you don't know much."

At this time, the convoy had found an open space sheltered from the wind, and everyone came down, some made a fire to cook, and some set up camp.Wang Steward was directing, and seeing that only Yinxue came down, he couldn't help asking: "Where's Qi Xian?" Yinxue was about to answer, but stopped, stretched out her fingers, Wang Steward looked in the direction
"Why can't I understand? Am I really too young?" Qi Xian still looked puzzled when he got out of the car, and Wang Butler didn't see any embarrassing expression on his face when he got out of the car, but it's not what he's thinking about now At that time, he was also screaming from hunger.The most urgent thing is to eat first.Qi Xian thought so.

When Qi Xian walked to the bonfire in the center, he found that there seemed to be an extra person, "Old man Wang, who is this kid? I haven't seen him before." Besides Steward Wang, two familiar guards and Xue Yin, there was also a boy sitting there.The boy was probably about the same age as himself, except that he was wearing Wang Steward's clothes and shorts made of animal skin underneath. Xiaopo, so Qi Xian also found that the boy was barefoot, it was really miserable.At this moment, Steward Wang spoke.

"This is what Yinxue just discovered. He is from Yunya Mountain, and he ran out without his parents." "I thought he was quite pitiful, so I dragged him to sit down." Yinxue added.

"But...forget it, more than one person is good company." Qi Xian actually wanted to say what the boy should do next, but after seeing Steward Wang winking at him, he swallowed the words again, and sat down to prepare for dinner.

It is late autumn at this moment, and although the night is not too cold, there is also a cool breeze. In addition to the surrounding dense forests, the branches and leaves rustle with the wind, which has a sense of movement and tranquility.Before this road was opened, there was a forest, and everything has not changed much, and there are birdsong from time to time.Looking at the sky through the woods, the vast sky can always calm people down, and the fallen leaves are like a story.

The boy remembered these two sentences, which the old man told him one night. He thought it was just the old man saying it casually, so he didn't take it to heart, but now he remembered it again for some reason.The boy sighed and stood up. "Do you want to sleep? I'll arrange a place for you to live in." Seeing this, Yin Xue also stood up, "Thank you then." The boy said.

"Here, this place is not bad, it's not far from our place, you can call us if you need it." Yin Xue took the boy to a part of the camp, which is only ten meters away from where they live, so it's fine. "Thank you," said the boy.

"By the way, do you have a name? My name is Xia Yinxue, and the boy who is about your age is named Qi Xian. We are both from Liugao County." Yinxue seemed in a good mood, and was curious about the boy, and asked with a smile road.

"I don't have a name." The boy was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that although the old man taught himself to read, he never gave himself a name. It didn't matter if the two of them didn't have a name before, but I'm afraid it won't work now.

"It doesn't matter if you don't have a name or no name. You will have a chance to get it later." Yin Xue was also a little embarrassed. Although she was not old, she had a good tutor and knew that this was not very suitable, so she hurriedly said.

"Then you can sleep here, I'll go back first." "Yeah."

On the other side, Qi Xian was pestering Steward Wang, "Old man Wang, show me the calculation."

"What kind of account is it? I've settled it a long time ago." Steward Wang replied angrily.

"That's not necessarily true. It seems that our account has not been settled yet?"

A cold snort suddenly came from the originally quiet forest, "Butler Wang, do you still remember me?"

"Who?" The guards, who were a little relaxed at first, jumped up, quickly stood in a circle and surrounded the camp, and pulled out their knives to find the source of the sound.

"Hmph, the reaction is not slow, but if I don't make a sound, you probably won't notice it all night, right?" He was tall and burly, with a tough and resolute face, and his short hair pointing straight to the sky, but at this moment, the man's playful expression made many people stunned.

Butler Wang frowned and then loosened, loosened and wrinkled, motioned for the guards to get out of the way, and walked straight to the man in black.

And Xue Yin and the boy who heard the movement also came over. After all, although the voices here were not loud, there was still a lot of movement surrounded by the guards.

Steward Wang walked up to the man and said angrily: "General Xia, is it fun to be scary in the middle of the night?" The man laughed and said, "What's the matter, I'm going to check how the guards at your Qi's shop are doing. No way, although the reaction is not slow, the vigilance is too low, and it needs to be improved."

This man is Xia Kuanfei, Captain of the Liugao County Guard, and the younger brother of Xia Jie, the county guard.Obviously it wasn't a robber or a robber, and the guards naturally recognized it before being dazed.

"Uncle Xia, why are you here?" Yin Xue happily stepped forward and asked, Xia Kuanfei patted her head and said, "Come on, let's go in and talk."

"Ah."

Seeing that it was a false alarm, the boy walked back to his corner.And here a few people came to the central camp.

"You can't blame the guards. There hasn't been any robbery or anything like that since the road was built, and it's been safe and sound. Besides, with your General Xia's skill, isn't it easy to hide from being discovered?" As soon as he entered the tent, Steward Wang couldn't help but smiled wryly, after all, such a thing was unheard of.But Xia Kuanfei's face became serious when he heard this.

"If you didn't have it before, it doesn't mean you don't have it now. You must be vigilant at all times. Not to mention the importance of your Qi family business to the entire county, you can't be careless even if Xueyin is here."

"Okay, okay, General Xia taught you a lesson, but I don't think you came this time just to test our guards." Steward Wang said.

"That's right, our county guards did have some important things to do when they came out this time. I came here to take a look when I found you around here." Xia Kuanfei said with a straight face.

"Steward Wang, you probably don't know that there are more and more people in Yunya Mountain, and it has become chaotic. There are also problems with these transportation roads that have never been in trouble before."

"Oh, what's going on? Could it be that there are really robbers?" Steward Wang raised his brows and asked.

"At present, it looks like this. On the other road to Liugao County not far from your place, a convoy was robbed. It is said that the car was destroyed and many people died, including some important people. Therefore, the county Shou asked me to investigate, and the others will arrive tomorrow." Xia Kuanfei was talking, when Qi Xian suddenly interrupted: "We saw the convoy passing nearby once yesterday, and it seems to come from Huanhao City Bar?"

"Exactly, so this matter is very important, and I have no idea." Xia Kuanfei nodded.

"Great, I'm going to have a look too, it's much more interesting than going with this boring convoy." Qi Xian suddenly became excited, clapping his hands and said.Yinxue who was beside him quickly tugged it, and said, "Uncle Xia, why are you making trouble when investigating the case?" Xia Kuanfei smiled and said, "It's okay, I will go with you tomorrow morning, and we will pass there. "

"Okay, let's see how late it is, go to bed and have to go tomorrow." Butler Wang stood up and waved his hands.

the next day.The weather is still very good, and the cool breeze of autumn is blowing on everyone's cheeks. The trees have not yet reflected the characteristics of autumn, and they are still full of vitality.If viewed from a height, the road representing human habitation and the forest representing nature blend together in harmony, but there is one place that does not seem to be the case.

This is only a relatively common section of the road, slightly narrower than other places, and also relatively open. Because of the year-round driving, there are no flowers and plants around. Instead, the remaining blood stains reveal the tragedy that happened here.

"Captain, you are here." Seeing Xia Kuan flying over, a county guard ran over.

"Well, what's the situation now?" Xia Kuanfei came here with Qi's motorcade early in the morning, and what he saw when he got out of the car made his heart ache.The wreckage of a pile of cars is scattered in a length of less than 50 meters, which seems to have been violently smashed, and twenty county guards are investigating.

"After our investigation, this is Huang's car dealership from Liugao County to and from Huanhao City. There are three cars in total, carrying about 30 passengers. It was attacked about the evening of the day before yesterday. The scene has been cleaned up when it was found, but There are still traces of blood," the county guard reported.

"I see, continue to investigate." Xia Kuanfei nodded grimly.

Steward Wang came up, "Then we won't hinder you, General Xia, we have to go back to the county."

"Alright, you guys go back first, pay attention to safety on the road." Xia Kuanfei said, beckoning the county guard to get out of the way at the same time.

"Okay, everyone, get ready, let's continue on our way." Steward Wang walked towards his car and ordered.

"Wait a minute, old man Wang." Qi Xian's voice suddenly came.

"What's the matter?" Steward Wang turned around suspiciously, only to find that the boy he met yesterday was walking towards the wreckage, while Qi Xian and Yin Xue followed behind.

"Grandpa Wang, he said he found something." Yin Xue replied curiously.

"Discovered? This child?" Steward Wang suspected that he didn't hear clearly, and Xia Kuanfei who was not far away also noticed this situation, but he didn't stop him, as if he wanted to take a look.

The boy has already changed into a piece of clothes, which was given to him by Qi Xian, and he looks much more energetic than yesterday, but now his small body is very heavy every step of the way, bending down from time to time to observe the ground carefully.

Finally, the boy stopped in an open space, turned his head and said to a kind of county guard over there, "There are corpses here."

corpse?Everyone was stunned for a moment, apparently not expecting this level, but Xia Kuanfei reacted quickly and quickly ordered his men to dig it up.

Sure enough, as soon as the soil was opened up a shallow layer, a body was exposed. The county guard quickly pulled it out, went forward to check, and there was indeed more than one body. When Xia Kuanfei saw it, he dug with the county guard.On the other side, the Qi family team also stopped.Steward Wang asked in amazement: "How did you know?" "Yes, how did you find out?" Yin Xue was also very curious.

The boy shyly said: "This road is all dirt road, no one is level, and it is full of potholes. There is a problem with such a flat open space here." At this moment, the people around suddenly realized, even the county guards who were digging the soil were in trouble again and again. nod.

In fact, the boy did not tell them the truth. After fighting wild animals for a long time in Yunya Mountain, the boy was very sensitive to the smell of blood.Although these people had been dead for two days, the shallow layer of soil obviously couldn't cover up the smell of blood.

Not long after, all the bodies had been dug up, and the county guard reported that there were 22 in total, and the remaining eight should be missing persons.

Xia Kuanfei let out a long sigh when he heard the words: "This place is less than a hundred miles away from the county city. It originally only took half a day to get there, but unfortunately they can't get there anymore." The surrounding county guards were silent, and everyone in the motorcade also felt that To inexplicable sadness.The passing of life is so vividly reflected at this moment.And Qi Xian and Yin Xue also turned their faces away and did not dare to look any more.

"Steward Wang, Liugao County is ahead." A guard stepped forward and said in a low voice with fists folded.

"Oh, tell the convoy to slow down and prepare to enter the city." Steward Wang raised the curtain of the car and looked forward, a city wall was already in sight.

As the nearest county town in the Yunya Mountains, although the history is not long, the vicissitudes are still reflected on this wall. There are many plants climbing on the wall more than ten meters high, and there are not many potholes distributed on it. You can see clearly when you are close.With the surrounding forest as the background, this county town is more like a tribe built in the mountains, only the roads extending in all directions still show its connection with the outside world.
