Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 466 Zhongxie
Inside the castle, this is an empty room, the surrounding walls are built with square rough gray stones, and the outer walls are inlaid with windows as tall as a person.

There is a couch in the front of the room, and finely carved tables, chairs and square tables are placed on both sides.

Di Renjie's luggage was piled up on the couch.

With a soft "squeak", the door opened, and a black figure quickly hid in, closed the door with his hand back, came to the couch, and gently opened Di Renjie's package.

……

In the desert, the orange-yellow sunset slowly sinks to the west, and just as the sky is turning red, a small black spot slowly rises from the horizon.

The black spot was getting closer and closer, and it turned out to be a lone horse.

It staggered on the quicksand and struggled desperately to move forward.

Suddenly, there was a faint roar in the air, and then, the ground shook slightly.

The horse stopped abruptly and looked up.

The dust rose in the distance, and the yellow smoke quickly drifted into the air with the breeze. Hundreds of horses came galloping, and the leader was Zeng Tai, the governor of Liangzhou. look!"

Zeng Tai grabbed his mount and saw the lonely horse not far away.

He shouted: "Found it! Quick!"

As he spoke, he jumped off his horse and ran over, with all the troops behind him swarming up.

When the lonely horse saw Zeng Tai coming, it let out a long mournful hiss, fell to its knees, and tears flowed from its eyes.

Zeng Tai scanned its body, and saw the mark of "Longwu" beside the horse's right leg.

Zeng Tai shouted excitedly: "I found it! Come on, bring water!"

The captain behind him ran over with a water bag, Zeng Tai snatched it, sprayed the water from the water bag into the mouth of the horse, and poured it on its head, the horse drank greedily.

The scout beside him said: "My lord, this is our Long Wuwei's horse!"

Zeng Tai repeatedly said: "Forage, get the fodder!"

The captain handed over the fodder that had been prepared, and the horse chewed a few mouthfuls, then bit Zeng Tai's skirt and pulled him to stand up.

Zeng Tai said excitedly: "The old horse knows the way, it must lead us to find the army."

The captain nodded.

The sergeants of Zeng Taichong yelled: "All troops mount their horses!"

All the troops flew on their horses, and the lone horse walked forward with its head held high and roaring.

Although the sun is setting in the desert, it is always dark late, and when the night has fallen in the city, there is still a sliver of afterglow here.

In a basin surrounded by sand dunes, three thousand Liberation Movement troops finally appeared in front of Zeng Tai.

However, the situation in front of them surprised them all.

I saw thousands of soldiers forming several large circles, dancing, singing and dancing, as if performing a sacrifice to the fire, and the cheers shook the desert.

Zeng Tai looked at the scout beside him, and saw that the scout opened his mouth wide, looked at Zeng Tai and then at the crowd in a daze, and murmured: "This, this, what's wrong?"

Zeng Tai turned over and jumped off his horse. All the troops behind him got off their horses and walked towards the army led by Zeng Tai.

Thousands of sergeants merged into a sea of ​​joy, singing and dancing with joy on their faces.

Zeng Tai walked among the crowd, but everyone ignored him.

A man dressed in an officer's uniform jumped into his eyes. He walked over quickly, grabbed the officer and asked, "What are you doing? Why don't you move on? Where's General Fang Zhe?"

The officer turned his head, stopped dancing, looked at him with a dazed smile and said, "Ah, the god in black! The god in black!"

Before he finished speaking, his body slowly fell towards Zeng Tai. Zeng Tai was startled, and quickly reached out to support him, but the officer's body fell heavily on the ground.

Zeng Tai squatted down and asked sharply, "Where is your General Fang Zhe?"

His voice suddenly stopped.

There was a strange smile on the officer's face, and a trace of blood slowly oozed from the corner of his mouth.

Zeng Tai was taken aback, and shook the officer vigorously, hoping that he could answer, but the officer did not make a sound. He reached out his hand to the officer's nose, but he was already out of breath.

Zeng Tai stood up and exclaimed, "He, he's dead!"

Everyone behind him quickly surrounded him, and sure enough, the officer had already passed away.

Everyone's eyes focused on Zeng Tai.

Zeng Tai's lips trembled, he gasped, and murmured: "What's going on here, what's going on here?"

At this time, a sergeant ran past him singing and dancing. Zeng Tai grabbed him abruptly and asked, "What's your name? Where is your general?"

The sergeant smirked like the officer just now and shouted: "The god in black! The god in black..."

Before he finished speaking, blood seeped out from the corner of his mouth quickly, and his body also fell heavily on the ground without making a sound.

Zeng Tai stretched out his hand to test his breath, and said in a trembling voice, "He, he's dead too!"

At the same time, a dozen or so Longwuwei sergeants not far away let out horrible screams almost at the same time, then spurted blood from their mouths and fell to the ground.

Zeng Tai led his men to rush over, and the soldiers were already dead, with a strange smile on their faces.

Zeng Tai stood up slowly, looking at the soldiers dancing and singing hoarsely around him, these people were unaware of the tragedy that happened before them.

Zeng Tai's hands trembled, and an ominous premonition came to his heart.

Suddenly, the captain of the city defense battalion behind him said in a trembling voice: "My lord, look!"

Zeng Tai turned around, only to see several Longwuwei soldiers fell to the ground not far away, spitting blood.

Zeng Tai shuddered all over, and blurted out: "Bewitched! They are all bewitched!"

At this moment, the accompanying scout walked quickly to a dancing officer, and was about to reach out to pull him to ask for a letter, when Zeng Tai behind him yelled: "Stop!"

The scout turned around in surprise.

Zeng Tai yelled sharply: "They are full of evil spirits, as long as they stop, they will die immediately!"

The sergeants of the city defense battalion who came around let out a low exclamation.

The scout withdrew his hand like an electric shock.

Zeng Tai said: "So don't touch the dancing sergeant. Everyone spread out and look for the cart loaded with pay!" The army immediately started to move silently under the command of the captain.

Zeng Tai took a deep breath, and walked forward slowly through the dancing and singing Longwuwei sergeants.

There were sergeants lying next to him, spurting blood and falling down.

Suddenly his gaze was attracted by a person lying on the sand dune not far away, all the living Longwuwei soldiers were dancing wildly, only this person was lying on the ground.

Zeng Taichong waved his hand to the scout beside him, and the two of them rushed over in three steps.

I only heard the scout scream: "General Fang!"

Zeng Tai was stunned: "He, he is General Fang Zhe?"

The scout cried, "Exactly."

The person on the ground is Fang Zhe.

He saw blood all over his face, and two big cuts were made on his chest, and the blood had coagulated.

The scout knelt on the ground with a plop, shook Fang Zhe's body and shouted, "General Fang! General Fang, wake up! What the hell is going on here?"

Zeng Tai looked around at the surrounding situation, and finally fell on Fang Zhe, who was covered in blood. He didn't understand what kind of situation the army had encountered.

The scouts shouted from the side: "Lord Inspector, General Fang is still alive!"

Zeng Tai was startled, and hurried over. Sure enough, Fang Zhe's eyelids trembled slightly.

Zeng Tai shouted loudly: "Bring water!" A sergeant ran over with a water bag. The scout took the water bag and poured clean water into Fang Zhe's mouth. Fang Zhe's body moved slightly.

At this time, the captain of the city defense battalion walked over quickly.

Zeng Tai jumped up to meet him, and asked eagerly, "How is it? Have you found the payment?"

The captain shook his head and said: "Lord Inspector, I searched every corner, but found no trace of the salary."

Zeng Tai was stunned. After a long time, he murmured: "It's over!"

With that said, he sat down heavily on the sand dune.
