C261 (1/2)
And on the peak of wolf, the people from the scout group finally came out.
They were all safely retreating. Everyone was carrying a bundle of firewood on their back, and in their hands were wild game. There were pheasants and rabbits.
They did not talk with Song Yungang and the others, but only glanced at them, as though they were surprised that there were so many people here, and did not linger, coming down from the other side of the mountain.
The members of the team would not come into contact with the people of the Flying Dragon Sect in private, because their identities had to be kept a secret. Otherwise, it would be dangerous for them to be assigned a mission in the future.
Not long after the woodmen left the mountain, a group of men followed them up as well.
These people were the secret guards of the Flying Dragon Sect's Lord.
”According to the news from the scout group, behind the miasma, there is a large forest, and no footprints were found. When we arrived at the summit, we discovered several caves in the vicinity.
Uncle Man asked: ”Is there anything abnormal about the cave entrance?”
”The scout group has drawn the pattern!” The secret guard handed it over to the Uncle Man.
Uncle Man took it and read it together with Song Yungang.
The cave entrance was very large, and weeds were growing everywhere. There were huge rocks on the left side, and weeds on the ground. It seemed that no one had trampled over them.
”Didn't you say that there are a few holes? ”What about the map of the other caves?” Uncle Man asked.
”All the caves are the same. Even the positions of the boulders are the same. The boulders are about the same size and the tops are smooth.” The guard said.
”This is strange.” Song Yungang said.
”But it seems that no one has stepped on the weeds on the ground before,” Uncle Man raised his head, ”Are there weeds at all the holes? And no one has ever stepped on it before? ”
”Yes, there are weeds at every hole. Some are half the height of a man, while others are around the knee.”
”This is not normal. There are no footprints in the forest behind the miasma. It can be inferred that Qing Gong is used. However, Qing Gong is not allowed to enter the cave.”
”Your Highness's analysis is correct. The cave entrance is not that high and not that big. If one or two people can pass through it, they won't be able to use Qing Gong to enter.” The Uncle Man said.
After entering, if there was any problem, the reinforcements definitely would not be able to keep up. This was because there was a hole in the north, south, east, and west side of the cave, proving that the hole was connected. It was easy to defend, but hard to force them out.
Song Yungang thought for a moment, then said to the Uncle Man, ”It seems that it will be impossible to find out their whereabouts in a short period of time. How about this, I will first go back and ask about what happened yesterday, and you will bring the people of the Flying Dragon Sect to continue patrolling the mountain.
”Alright, your highness, please go back first. I'll bring some people to search around the vicinity and see if there are any clues.” The Uncle Man said.
Song Yungang cupped his hands and went down the mountain. He first went to the Ministry of Justice, and did not directly return to the residence.
He looked at Zhuge Ming's recovered body and sighed heavily, ”Although this king has mentally prepared himself …”
Thinking and seeing had always been in a different mood.
On the other hand, Zhu Fangyuan was more optimistic, ”Actually, looking carefully, he's not like Lv Ning, it might not be him, since this kid's martial arts are so high, he can definitely turn the situation around.”
Zhuge Ming said in a deep voice: ”Qian Shan said, when she left, Lv Ning had already been hit by three swords, the sword was vital points, and this corpse, after being hit by five swords, was also fatal points.”
Zhu Fangyuan's voice trembled slightly, ”That won't happen, everyone should be more optimistic, more optimistic.”
His voice was so weak that even he could not convince himself.
