Chapter 1622

Although Yang Tao's order is for Jiang Pengji's good, this order is contrary to Jiang Pengji's previous order, and the guard dare not act.

"What are you doing?"

Yang Tao also can't understand the operation of these guards. If someone has an accident, they just carry the pot, but they have to pull themselves into the water. Yang Tao doesn't want to lose all his life because of this... It's too wrong to die

The guard was very embarrassed and said, "I have to obey the Lord's order. If the Lord wants to investigate..."

Yang Tao asked, "if something really happened to Liu Gong, who of you can shoulder this responsibility?"

Seeing that the guard didn't give the right words, Yang Tao grabbed the oar in the boatman's hand.

"You can't disobey Liu Gong's order, and I won't force you. I'll just go by myself. Go back by yourself."

The guards looked at each other and were in a dilemma for a time.

After all, the Lord ordered them to take Yang Tao back by water. Yang Tao refused to cooperate and no one could come down.

After hesitating again and again, the guards still had the courage to follow Yang Tao's orders and turn around to find Jiang Pengji.

First of all, if they are reprimanded by the Lord, at least there is a Yang Tao who is fighting against them, and he won't be angry at them.

Second, as Yang Tao said, if something happens to the LORD alone, they will be responsible for tens of thousands of deaths.

Yang Tao hurried back to find Jiang Pengji, but he didn't forget anything else.

"Send someone to pass the message back first."

They haven't sent back news for so long. I don't know how worried Wei Ci and others are.

"Promise!"

Because Yang Tao ordered to turn around, the boatman also tried to paddle. The boat drove fast, and the oncoming river wind beat his face.

For a time, I woke up with nothing but anxiety and worry.

The night fell low, and the last afterglow fell into the horizon,

Yang Tao can only let the guard light a torch and follow the traces left by Jiang Pengji along the road to find the dense forest.

"Wait - what's the smell?"

Yang Tao's nose is quite clever. Before they go deep into the dense forest, they smell the familiar bloody smell.

He couldn't believe it. After sniffing hard, the closer he was to the bloody smell, the stronger it became. Under the reflection of the torch, the guard also found that there were many man-made traces near the dense forest, such as messy footsteps and trees and weeds overwhelmed by heavy objects... Yang Tao took a look at the depth of footsteps and the dryness of soil, and was sure that these footsteps had been left in recent time, A lot of people!

The more he looked, the more frightened he was. Yang Tao couldn't tell what his mood was at this time, because his head was scared to a blank.

"Look! Look for them all! Live to see people and die to see corpses!"

Yang Tao repressed his almost out of control emotion, but the broken sound in his words exposed his heart.

After a while, the guard came and reported that he had found a body that had been eaten beyond recognition by mountain beasts.

Yang Tao hurried over and found several corpses dragged and eaten by wild animals on the ground, including their heads, bodies and limbs... Where there was a large accumulation of muscle and fat, every place was eaten by hungry animals, revealing the white bones under the skin and flesh, making people's scalp numb. The clothes on the deceased were also gnawed beyond recognition by the wild animals, but it can also be judged from the skeleton and clothing residue that it was a man.

"Not the Lord."

As soon as the guard finished, Yang Tao replied.

"I'm not blind. I can distinguish between men and women. What are these people? Are they dead?"

He guessed right, and the guard looked dignified and said, "according to the traces of these bodies, they are indeed well-trained dead men. These bodies haven't smelled, the bodies are slightly hardened, and the blood is fresh. It was visually observed that their death time was no more than two quarters of an hour."

No more than two quarters of an hour?

Isn't that just a short time ago?

Yang Tao's face is darker than the night at this time.

A group of newly dead dead people appeared here, but it was a sensitive moment when Jiang Pengji was alone. Why didn't he worry?

Whether Yang Tao or these guards, they all know that Jiang Pengji was mostly assassinated, but now they have not found her trace. They can't judge whether the other party is unharmed, injured, hidden or... Unfortunately dead. He dared not delay. Except for two guards, others were sent out to look for Jiang Pengji. The guard found the spot of the scuffle according to the trace of the beast dragging the body.

There are more bodies here!

When the guard arrived, there were shining eyes in the dark!

The crowd saw the scene with a torch and immediately took a breath.

This is a group of wolves who have not had enough to eat after winter!

They were probably attracted by the bloody smell of these bodies, and they ate on them.

When the crowd approached, the person with sensitive ears could still hear the stirring sound of the wolf's sharp teeth biting human flesh and bones.

Maybe they were full. The head wolf of the wolves didn't want to fight with the guard. The two sides were deadlocked for a while and called the wolves to leave.

Looking at a pair of glowing eyes hidden in the dark, two guards recovered and were stunned to find that they were sweating all over.

When the cold wind blew, their sweaty skin was cold, and they couldn't help shivering.

When Yang Tao heard the news, he came to the scene and looked very dignified.

"Did you find any trace of Liu Gong?"

The guard said, "all the fatal injuries on the dead were left by the long knife. The knife was so neat and sharp that only the divine chopping knife in the Lord's hand can do it. The young people checked the area for several miles and found no trace of the lord except these dead..."

Yang Tao said, "where's the man? Didn't you find the man of Liu Gong?"

The guard hesitated for a moment and said, "maybe... The Lord has gone back?"

Yang Tao pointed to the corpses all over the ground and said, "it is roughly estimated that there are 100 people. Do you think these dead people eat dry food?"

In his opinion, even if Jiang Pengji is still alive, most of them are injured and hide somewhere. They must find someone quickly!

The guard leader blinked and hesitated, "maybe they really eat dry food."

"Are you still talking to me?"

Yang Tao was so angry with these unskilled guards.

Jiang Pengji is also one of the best princes in the world. Can't the guard find a group of professional and responsible?

"These well-trained martyrs are dry food. What do you eat? Do you eat bad food? Go find it quickly!"

No, he's going to have a heart attack!

The guard couldn't help but keep looking, but they turned all over the mountain and found no trace of their Lord.

If they are really injured and hiding, how can we leave some clues for them to follow the plan?

Yang Tao fed mosquitoes for half a night, and Jiang Pengji wandered home on her horse.

Before she sat down for a while, Yan Lin ran to find her important person.

"What?"
