Pseudo master, she just wants to live

Chapter 237
In less than a stick of incense, two people were killed successively, and the place of death was not far from the other companions.

This made everyone present nervous.

The two young masters of the Duke's Mansion were probably discouraged, and returned with their own guards and the soldiers who carried the corpse, leaving Jiang Wenjie to lead the soldiers to continue the search.

"Master Fan, how about you too..."

"You don't have to worry about me. Finding the snow monster is the most important thing now, so that it doesn't come out again to harm people."

Fan Chen looked around and continued, "Vice Captain Jiang, where is that cave?"

Jiang Wenjie quickly stretched out his finger and pointed not far ahead, and said, "It's right there."

Fan Chen nodded: "Can you take us to have a look?"

"That's natural, the official has planned to go there."

Afterwards, everyone was extremely careful, so that they would not be attacked silently again. Almost all of them lined up horizontally, less than a foot away from the adjacent teammates.

Some thick thorny bushes were also cut down by long knives.

Fang Yao and Fan Chen followed behind.

Soon, everyone came to the rumored cave where the Yiping County Lord was arrested.

The thorns and bushes in front of the cave have been cleared, because the nearby pines and cypresses are dense, and the heavy snow last night did not leave much sediment on the ground.

As soon as Fang Yao came, she carefully checked the nearby footprints.

It's a pity that there are no suspicious marks on the snow at the entrance of the cave except for the marks of moccasin boots.

It is similar to what Yiping County Lord said, the forest is dark, and the cave is even darker.

Except for a little dim light at the entrance of the cave, if you go a little further in, it will be dark.

The soldiers lit the torches prepared in advance, and the dark cave finally lit up.

Fang Yao followed behind Fan Chen, and under the cover of this guy, she looked around unscrupulously.

In the air, there was a thick smell of damp and decay, and the muddy ground inside the cave was full of footprints of similar shapes and sizes.

Jiang Wenjie pointed to the innermost part, "That's the hiding place of the snow monster. I dug a trap at the place where it sleeps yesterday."

It was a piece of blackened and moldy straw husk, and the strong musty smell came from this thing.

"Vice Captain Chang came here early in the morning, but he didn't find the snow monster, but this happened..."

Jiang Wenjie said that his handsome face was full of sadness, and the corners of his eyes seemed to be a little red.

Fang Yao, who was standing behind Fan Chen, had an indescribable expression.

If she understood correctly, the "Master Rabbit" that the dead Deputy Chang was cursing in the tavern was clearly this guy.

She touched the mask hidden under the servant's clothes, but it was still cold.

Suddenly, a shout came from the direction of the temple.

"It's not good... it's not good..."

"An accident happened to the Yiping County Lord!"

Jiang Wenjie's complexion changed, and he hurried back to the temple with people.

Fang Yao and Fan Chen looked at each other and followed closely.

However, because Fang Yao's clothes were too thick and round, walking on the path full of thorns and shrubs would inevitably cause scratches, and the speed could not help but slow down.

Fan Chen naturally wanted to wait for her, and after a while, the two fell behind a lot.

Looking at Jiang Wenjie and other pedestrians who disappeared into the bushes ahead, Fang Yao pulled the clothes on her body with some annoyance, "I'm going to take off my clothes!"

But after all, she was not willing to take it off.

The clothes on her body were extra-thick ones specially made for her by Mrs. Jiang after she heard that the monster's claws had scooped up a few blood marks on her back.

Two layers of real sheepskin are sewn together, and the inside and outside are covered with thick wool. The thickness is two to three times that of ordinary coats. After wearing it, the whole person instantly swells up.

While cutting open the bushes on both sides with his sword, Fan Chen said calmly: "Don't worry, what you need is to go up slowly."

Fang Yao blinked her big black and white eyes a few times, a trace of doubt flashed inside, and suddenly, something flashed in her mind, and her eyes widened slightly.

"You want to be alone and lure that snow monster out?!"

But soon, she frowned again and said, "But... I think it might not be..."

"Probably not a snow monster, right?"

Fang Yao nodded.

Fan Chen looked around, leaned down slightly, leaned into her ear, and said in a low voice: "When the time comes, we'll just say that when we go up..."

……

Cangling Temple.

When Jiang Wenjie led the soldiers back, there was a lot of noise in the backyard of the temple, and the periphery of a side courtyard was full of people.

As soon as he appeared, the servants of the Duke's Mansion ran over and said anxiously: "Deputy Captain Jiang, it's not good, the county lord has been injured!"

"what?!"

Jiang Wenjie's face changed slightly, and under the leadership of his servants, he quickly rushed to the wing where the Yiping County Lord was.

The Lord Yiping leaned on the bed with a pale face, his eyes were slightly closed, and the brocade's wide sleeves were ragged, with traces of blood leaking from them.

The eldest son of the Duke's Mansion and the second young master stood aside, and the county lord's personal servant girl knelt on the ground, her eyes were swollen from crying.

"what happened?!"

Jiang Wenjie asked nervously, "With so many people guarding, why did the county magistrate get hurt?"

The county owner came with him, and he couldn't afford anything that happened.

The servant girl prostrated herself on the ground, her body trembling, and tremblingly said: "Servant...Damn it, I just went out for a while...The servant didn't know...The servant heard the county lord's screams, and when she came back...just..."

It's a pity that the servant girl cried and talked for a long time, but she didn't explain why.

Jiang Wenjie was very impatient, so he went up to check on the injury of the Yiping County Lord.

But when the latter saw someone approaching, his eyes widened in horror, as if he saw something terrible, he kept dodging into the bed.

"Don't...don't come here...quick...go away..."

Seeing this, Jiang Wenjie didn't dare to continue to forcefully approach, so he had to retreat to a place behind.

The prince of the Duke's Mansion gritted his teeth: "Sure, it must be some damned rascal..."

As he spoke, he suddenly realized that there was a future brother-in-law in the room, so he quickly shut up.

But the speaker had no intention, but the listener intended, the servant girl lying on the ground suddenly blurted out: "When the servant girl went out to serve the county magistrate, I heard a few men mention the county magistrate on the road..."

Several people in the room immediately looked at the girl, who shook her body and hurriedly said: "They all live in the opposite yard, there are about twenty men!"

Jiang Wenjie frowned, and quickly ordered his subordinates: "Quick! Go and bring back all those men!"

"Yes!"

The soldiers were about to go out when there was another noise outside the door.

"Lord Fan, the county lord is injured, and Deputy Captain Jiang is investigating the situation, why don't you go back first?"

The county magistrate of Yiping, who had been squatting at the corner of the bed, suddenly had clear eyes. She gently raised her eyelids, looked at the person, and said tremblingly, "Yes, is it Jiang Lang?"

The anxious Jiang Wenjie's eyes lit up, and he immediately turned around and said, "It's me! County Lord, what's wrong with you? Who hurt you like this!"

"Yes, it's a snow monster!"
