I take the unicorn to the world

Chapter 69 The Shaking Water Tank

There are many fresh horseshoe marks on the ground, and some traces of carriages running over.Looking at the scattered horseshoe prints on the ground, many horses should have been here, and the wheels of the carriage are also very deep. It must be that the carriage is carrying heavy things.

Daoist Qingfeng squatted on the ground, the expression on his face immediately became gloomy, could it be that the Taiping Army came here?Or people from the government have been here before?Or maybe a bandit?
People from the government usually don't kill and set fire when they come, but this possibility cannot be ruled out. It would be hard to say if the Taiping army or bandits came.

Daoist Qingfeng stood up slowly, and glanced in the direction of Yizhuang, only to see a vague outline standing there quietly.Yizhuang is a very unlucky place for ordinary people. Most people would never think of going to that place. It seems that Feng'er should be safe, and Yizhuang does not seem to be on fire.

Thinking of this, Daoist Qingfeng felt a little more relieved, and looked at the village again. The burning fire was no longer so fierce at this time, and some places gradually calmed down, releasing thick green smoke, and a gust of wind blew over , It was so choking that people couldn't breathe.

Let's see if there are any living people in the village before talking, and if there are any, come down first.

Thinking this way, Daoist Qingfeng ran out towards the village quickly, and walked through several houses in a row, only to find that the house was turned into a mess, and there were several dead bodies in the house or yard, most of which were hacked to death with a big knife. very deep.

Seeing such a horrible scene, Daoist Qingfeng's face became even more gloomy at this time. He stood there for a while, and then ran to another yard. This yard was also turned into a mess. He went back and forth I searched around and found no dead person, which was a little strange. When he was about to run to the next yard, he accidentally saw a large water tank in the corner of the yard shaking slightly. So he walked towards the big water tank lightly.

Standing in front of the big water tank, staring at it for a while, he found that the water tank was shaking slightly. Master Qingfeng grabbed the tank cover, threw it far away, and shouted: "Who is here? Inside? Come out quickly!"

"Heroic man, please spare my life...Heroic man, please spare my life..." A drenched man suddenly stood up from the water tank with a reed stick in his mouth, raised his hands, and begged for mercy trembling with fright.

Daoist Qingfeng glanced at the drenched man in front of him, saw that he was a middle-aged man in his 40s, dressed like a villager in the countryside, he didn't look like a villain, so he said softly: "This fellow, don't be afraid , Pindao is not a villain, passing by here, saw many people died in the village, and many houses were burned, so I came here to check..."

The middle-aged man opened his eyes, and saw a man dressed like a Taoist standing in front of him, with a fairy-like appearance, so he was relieved, but he still asked anxiously: "Is he ...are they all gone?"

"Who left?" Qingfeng Daoist asked suspiciously.

"Bandits...of course they are bandits from Heifeng Village..." The middle-aged man couldn't help shivering when he mentioned the word "bandits".

"You mean that a group of bandits just came to your village and robbed your house?"
