From the beginning of celebrating more than one year, the sun shines on the sky

Chapter 23 [Ghost Bamboo Forest]

an hour ago.

Ten miles outside Danzhou city.

This place is a jungle, with dense forests on both sides of the official road.

The moon was dark and the wind was high. A carriage and a group of people slowly entered it, preparing to pass through the jungle.

It was approaching Danzhou, and in the entire Qing Kingdom, who would dare to stop the red armored knight.

So, he immediately decided to drive overnight to Danzhou.

However, just after entering the official jungle road, two groups of people rushed out from the woods on both sides, a large number of people.

The number is more than three times that of the red armored knight.

Although the red-armored knights were powerful in battle, they were eventually defeated by the large number of opponents.

Some of the troops retreated first to protect Ruoruo, while the other part stayed behind to delay time.

So far, during the chase and escape, Ruo Ruo lost his whereabouts and his whereabouts are unknown.

All the red armored knights died in battle.

Ruoruo was ambushed outside the city?
Upon hearing the news, Fan Zui frowned instantly.

In Danzhou, who else would dare to attack Ruoruo?

Moreover, the one who escorted Ruoruo was a knight in red armor.

Who is so bold, dare to move the red armored knight of His Majesty?
Fan Zui didn't have time to think about it, picked up the sword, walked out of the courtyard, and said casually: "You deal with these two corpses and burn them."

"Yes, don't worry, young master, there will be no traces." The butler didn't dare to ask any more questions, but hurriedly agreed.

When Fan Zui came to the lobby, the old lady and Fan Xian had already arrived.

Grandma's face was as frosty, she sat silently, waiting for the news.

It has been many years, and no one has dared to lift the beards of the Fan family in Danzhou.

This time, the courage of the person is really not ordinary.

Even a knight in red armor dared to kill him.

"Grandma, do you know who did it?" Fan Zui asked straight to the point.

The old lady glanced at the sword on his back, and said, "According to the report from the spies, it should be done by pirates."

"Pirates? How can there be pirates in the hinterland of Danzhou?" Fan Zui's heart sank slightly.

Pirates often harassed Danzhou, but never entered the hinterland. They only attacked coastal villages and then retreated quickly.

Seeing him frowning, at this moment, the butler who just walked into the hall hurriedly said:

"Young master is urgent. General Li Xia, the Danzhou garrison, has personally led people and set off overnight to search outside the city. There must be news soon."

Li Xia?

Fan Zui thought to himself, something is wrong.

The old lady seems to be worried about this too, but she has no one to use now.

Fan Zui noticed that the personal servant girl who had been with the old lady was not by her side at this time.

According to Wu Zhu, that maid is a seventh-rank master.

After pondering for a moment, Fan Zui patted Fan Xian on the shoulder, gave him a wink, and said:

"You accompany grandma, I will go out for a while. Grandma, I will go out for a while, don't worry, I will be back soon."

"elder brother……"

Before Fan Xian finished speaking, Fan Zui had already trotted out.

"Be careful yourself." Fan Xian shouted behind him.

On the seat, the old lady leaned on a cane, stood up slowly, and looked outside the house.

Fan Zui's figure had disappeared around the corner.

Fan Xian hurriedly stepped forward to support the old lady, and comforted him, "Don't worry, grandma, everything will be fine."

The old lady patted Fan Xian's head, but said nothing.

However, a ruthless look flashed in her eyes.

This was the first time she showed such a look.

Fan Zui ran wildly all the way, heading towards the shop.

After running for a distance, he turned back.

Bending down, picked up a piece of broken silver on the ground, put it in his pocket, and continued to run wildly.

Bang!
Bang bang!

The sound of knocking on the door echoed softly in the dark night, extremely clear.

After that, Fan Zui hurried out of the city under the "support" of Wu Zhu.

The speed and strength of the grand master is indeed a bit abnormal, no wonder he can guard a city by himself.

After a while, the two arrived at the forest.

The name here is Ghost Bamboo Forest.

At night, when the wind blows the bamboos and leaves rustle, it sounds like ghosts walking in the night, ghosts crying and wolves howling, which is a bit scary.

"It's here!"

The figures of Fan Zui and Wu Zhu fell from the sky.

Looking around, they were all corpses, dressed in red armor.

Fan Zui snorted briefly, his vitality had already been cut off.

Suddenly, Fan Zui stopped, turned around, glanced at all the corpses collectively, and asked:

"Uncle, have you noticed anything unusual about these corpses?"

Wu Zhu held the iron awl in his hand, and said lightly: "Don't worry, with me around, they won't cheat the corpse."

While speaking, there seemed to be a ghostly cry.

That suppressed, low-pitched whining cry.

If you are a timid person, you may get goosebumps in an instant.

"Uncle, when will you be able to joke?" Fan Zui asked while holding his forehead.

Wu Zhu glanced at him, and said solemnly: "I'm not kidding."

"Well, actually, what I mean is that the corpses of these red-armored knights have all been mended."

After hearing what he said, Wu Zhu glanced again, nodded, and said, "It wasn't done by one person."

His words were still so concise, Fan Zui knew that what he meant was that the person who made up the knife was not one person, but a group of people.

Just as he was about to speak, a voice suddenly sounded in his mind.

【Ding! 】

[Trigger violent mission: Find the murderer in this case and kill him violently. 】

In such a dark night, he was not a good tracker.

Moreover, the surrounding traces seem to have been intentionally erased.

Therefore, if you want to find Ruoruo, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult.

At this time, it's time for Wuzhu to make a move.

According to his perception, if there is someone nearby, they will definitely not escape his eyes.

"There's someone over there!" After finishing speaking, Wu Zhu rushed towards that direction with Fan Zui.

At the speed of Grand Master, Fan Zui could only feel the wind whizzing past his ears, and when he stopped, he had already arrived at his destination.

The two stood on the top of the tree, hiding in the darkness, looking down.

A group of people camped here, and the bonfire was booming.

On the bonfire, horse meat was being roasted.

The horse of the knight in red armor was slaughtered by these people for meat.

"It really is a pirate!"

Fan Zui was startled. Before, he had doubts in his heart that the so-called pirates who ambushed the red armored knights might just be people pretended by Li Xia.

However, when I saw it now, I didn't expect it to be true.

However, how did these people pass through the naval checkpoint and go deep into the hinterland.

Without waiting for him to think about it, he searched the place with his eyes, and finally saw Ruoruo's location.

wait, that's...

Fan Zui narrowed his pupils slightly, and he saw a familiar figure.

Li Ermazi!

A closer look reveals that this person only looks like Li Ermazi, and is not really the dead person.

So, who is this in front of me?
While Fan Zui was thinking, a voice came from below.

"Fan Zui, I know you are guarded by masters, at least rank [-], and according to your speed, you should have arrived by now.

Now that you're here, why don't you show up, do you want to see with your own eyes that I will roast your sister?
The last time I ate people was during the famine three years ago, the taste...

The two maids I sent will definitely not be able to kill you.

I'll count to three, if you don't show up again, I'll roast her, cut her in half and give it to you.

One!

two! "
