Chapter 236
In the forest behind the mountain.

Some soldiers continued to chase into the depths of the forest along the broken footprints in the bushes.

Jiang Wenjie and others stayed here temporarily to check the situation of Deputy Captain Chang.

Surprise flashed in the eyes of everyone present.

Everyone was shocked, and Fang Yao's inconspicuous gasp did not attract anyone's attention.

After Jiang Wenjie briefly checked the person lying on the ground, he straightened up and said solemnly, "Vice Captain Chang is dead."

One of the soldiers who was chasing the snow monster with Deputy Captain Chang turned pale, and stammered: "Why, how could this happen...he came not far in front of me just now..."

"Vice Captain Chang died not long ago, and the snow monster should be not far away."

Jiang Wenjie held a long knife in his hand, "The forest is too dense, and the snow monsters are likely to hide in it and hurt people. Even if they are very close, they will be hard to guard against. We'd better be careful."

Everyone immediately looked around vigilantly, and several guards simultaneously protected the two young masters of the Duke's Mansion who followed.

"The two of you first lift Deputy Lieutenant Chang's body to the top, and the others will follow me."

"Yes."

Seeing the two soldiers carrying away the soldier with a strange smile on his face, Fan Chen suddenly called out to them: "Wait a minute, was Deputy Captain Chang injured by a snow monster?"

The two soldiers carrying Deputy Captain Chang couldn't help turning their heads to look at Jiang Wenjie. Before the latter could speak, the young master of the Duke's Mansion said coldly: "Except for the snow monster, who else can kill people so quickly and silently?" die?"

As long as you think about it, anyone can do it!

Fang Yao hid behind Fan Chen, and at the same time, her eyes were sizing up the place where the white shadow flashed past just now.

Fan Chen completely ignored the young master's provocation, and simply said directly: "May I ask Vice-Captain Jiang to let me see the scars on Vice-Captain Chang's body?"

"The snow monster is an errand assigned by the emperor to Vice-Lieutenant Jiang. What's your intention here?"

The second young master of the Duke's Mansion also spoke.

He glanced at Fan Chen, then at Fang Yao, who was dressed like a fat man next to Fan Chen, and said contemptuously: "I advise you not to come here to join in the fun, lest you and your stupid fat boy will be confused." It was taken away by the snow monster."

Fang Yao hides behind Fan Chen and rolls her eyes.

Jiang Wenjie also forced a smile at Fan Chen: "Master Fan, this matter is a bit dangerous. I have limited manpower. If you insist on following, you will be in danger. Brothers may not be able to take care of you..."

"Deputy Captain Jiang is overthinking."

Fan Chen said without changing his face, "My personal servant is not an ordinary person, she is best at catching those monsters, you don't need to worry about me, she will protect me well."

"..."

Everyone's eyes fell on Fang Yao, who was fat into a ball, and everyone's face was clearly marked with suspicion.

Fang Yao tried her best to hold her head up and chest out, with a calm and confident face on her face.

However, someone who didn't know gave a sneer, which immediately made her face heat up, and she glared angrily.

Sure enough, it was those two young masters!

Fan Chen blocked her sight.

Jiang Wenjie twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Since Mr. Fan said so, then you can do what you want, but if something happens to you..."

Fan Chen stood with his hands behind his back, "It has nothing to do with you."

"it is good."

Jiang Wenjie didn't delay any further, he just glanced at Fang Yao who was standing behind Fan Chen, then turned and said to the others, "Come on, let's go ahead and look for it."

After these people disappeared among the bushes one after another, Fang Yao followed Fan Chen and walked to the side of the two soldiers carrying Deputy Captain Chang.

The dead Deputy Captain Chang was put down again.

Fang Yao crouched in front of the deceased.

Deputy Lieutenant Chang's eyes were not closed, and there was still a weird smile with twisted muscles on his face, but his pupils were slightly dilated, probably because he saw something terrible before he died.

She sniffed her nose.

Except for the smell of over-fermented wine and blood, there is no other strange smell in the air.

Then, she looked at the tongue, ears, nostrils and other places.

On the other side, Fan Chen also carefully lifted the shirt of the deceased, and silently blocked Fang Yao's sight.

After a careful inspection, he straightened up and waved to the two soldiers, indicating that they could take the body away.

After the two soldiers left, Fan Chen lowered his voice: "There are marks of blunt force on his head and back, it looks like he was attacked by something, not like a monster like Plague Demon .”

Fang Yao nodded. Although he couldn't see the white shadow running quickly in the bushes, it was far from the "one foot tall" that Yiping County Chief said.

She told this to Fan Chen, and the latter began to walk along the nearby bushes that had been trampled beyond recognition to check carefully.

Fang Yao rolled her eyes, took the opportunity to sneak into the other side, and quickly took out the booklet under the cover of thick branches and leaves.

On it is still the scattered ink balls.

No new screen appears.

Fang Yao was a little impatient, so she couldn't help poking the ink dumpling with her finger, then she was so hot that she suddenly retracted, put it to her mouth and blew hard: "Hoo hoo..."

"what happened to you?"

Fan Chen keenly heard the movement on her side, and walked over quickly.

Fang Yao quickly rolled up the booklet, stuffed it into her inner jacket, and turned around hastily.

But it was too thick, surrounded by bushes full of thorns and dead vines, and she was...hung.

"What are you doing in here?"

Fan Chen frowned instantly, quickly cut down the surrounding bushes with his sword, and lifted her out.

Fang Yao hurriedly tore off the spikes on her body, because she kept Fan Chen from the matter about the booklet, she was always a little cautious, and said with drooping eyebrows: "I'm also looking for clues."

Fan Chen stared at a ruddy blood mark scraped off her face, and frowned even tighter.

Seeing a drop of blood slowly condense from the blood mark, he couldn't help stretching out his hand.

"what……"

Fang Yao was a step ahead of him, and quickly raised her hand to wipe her face.

The drop of blood was wiped away mercilessly and stuck to her fair right cheek.

"Help me quickly. Is there something on my right face? It seemed a little hot just now."

Fang Yao also touched her face strangely.

Fan Chen remembered the same hot blood on her back when she was in Qingshen Mountain...

He opened his mouth, and just about to say something, there was another scream in the distance.

The two immediately looked at each other with a serious look, and then hurried over there.

When they got closer, they heard Jiang Wenjie talking.

"My son, the second young master, that snow monster must have sensed the danger and became more violent and violent. The forest is too thick and the danger is unpredictable. You should go back first."

"Ah, that's good, that's good. Since Deputy Captain Jiang is sure, there's no need for us to follow, so as not to distract you."

Fang Yao poked her head out, and at a glance, she saw someone lying on the ground in a distorted posture among the crowd.

This person, like the deputy lieutenant Chang, seemed to be curled up, and a pool of blood flowed from the back of his overly bowed head, staining the snow red.

Her brow furrowed even tighter.

The place from the back of the deceased's neck to the back of his head was sunken abnormally, which was clearly fatal again with a blunt weapon!
