Thinking of this, Sangui has slowly approached the lights.

It was a thatched hut, not big, even smaller than the woodshed in my home. It seemed that it was a place for hunters entering the mountains to spend the night.

Through the window, you can see two figures leaning against each other and communicating something.

The closer you get, the clearer the sound will be.

But Sangui never heard what they said.

That is not the local dialect of Xiahe County, nor the official dialect that is popular in the capital, but it is more like an exotic language!

But under extreme fear, Sangui couldn't think of more.

He just wants to find someone to help him now!

So he plucked up the courage to come to the door, and plucked up the courage to knock on the door twice.

"Dongdong"

As the knock on the door rang, the people inside stopped talking.

The door was suddenly opened, and a burly man with a beard appeared at the door. His fierce and vicious appearance made Sangui shudder and even regret knocking on the door.

The strong man lowered his head and looked at Sangui, who was almost half shorter than him, and said in a buzzing voice: "Boy, who are you? Why didn't you go home in the middle of the night and run into this mountain?"

Sangui looked at the man who was like a bear and said in a trembling voice: "I, I am a child from the nearby village... I'm lost and can't find my way home... This old man, can I let me stay here for one night? I'll leave tomorrow, and tomorrow!"

Sangui said it very sincerely, but this man does not look much kinder than the beasts outside. Even if this man takes him in, it will be difficult to endure this night.

"The village? There are only Dongpan Township and Nanwan Township nearby. Which village do you belong to?"

"I...I am a villager from Dongpan Township. My surname is Zheng and my name is Zheng Sangui..."

The strong man stared at Sangui for a long time, and Sangui was furrowed all over. If the beasts outside weren't screaming louder, he would have run away on the spot!

Just when Sangui was about to bear the huge pressure, the man finally let go: "Okay, come in, it's not easy for a child to enter the mountains at night."

After saying that, the man turned his back and let Sangui enter the house.

Just when Sangui was glad that he had met a good person, he looked up and saw that there was only a table, two chairs, and a dusty kang in the narrow room.

On the side of the table, there was a man who looked very different from the Central Plains people.

His nose bridge is high and his eye sockets are deep. His eyeballs are not black, but strange brown.

The most distinctive thing is that he wears a hat made of animal fur.

He suddenly thought that the old people once said that the barbarians of Beifeng seemed to be like this!

He opened his mouth wide and was about to shout loudly, but was covered by the big hand behind him!

Immediately afterwards, he felt a violent impact on the back of his neck, and finally he completely lost consciousness...

Looking at Sangui who was lying straight on the ground, the barbarian man wearing a fur hat finally stood up slowly, walked to Sangui and looked, reaching out to touch his breath.

Then he stood up and asked the burly man in extremely fluent official language: "Why didn't you kill him?"

"Mr. Hulu, you should have heard just now that this child is a villager from Dongpan Township, the village where Song Tianming is located.

This Song Tianming is the vengeful person. If we touch his people, we will probably be with us forever.

At that time, the plans of the adults and my master will be affected, and that will be bad.

Moreover, I think we can use this kid to do things. If we do it well, our plan can save a lot of things!"

This barbarian, called "Hulu", thought for a moment and said, "It's not impossible to keep him, but your hands and feet must be cleaner, do you know?

If this incident affects our plan, you know what the consequences will be."

The strong man said respectfully: "Don't worry, sir, the younger ones will definitely make arrangements!"

Hu Lu nodded: "By the way, where did we just talk about?"

"We just mentioned, when will Lord Hulu's men be here?"

“After three days, the staff will be complete.

After that, the plan can begin.”

The strong man said, "Since that's the case, see you in three days.

But this place is no longer safe, and we will make an appointment in another place next time."

As he said that, the burly man handed a small note to Hulu.

Hu Lu opened it and nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, I am worthy of being the most valued subordinate of your master. I am really cautious in doing things."

After saying that, put the note on the candle and watched it burn into ashes.

"Then I'll take a step first, and I'll leave it to you here."

"Great send to you, sir,"

After Hulu left, the strong man tied Sangui who had fallen into a coma and cleaned up the house. Then he carried it on his shoulders and quickly left the place.

Around the hut, a darkness suddenly came back...

Half an hour later, Song Tianming brought his people to the neighborhood.

"Where did this brat go? We have been walking almost twenty miles. Isn't he afraid before he sees others?"

Song Tianming muttered a little annoyed.

The surroundings were completely dark, and from time to time he could see some shadows flashing past everyone, not knowing what kind of beast it was.

In this case, there are still no people in the three nobles, and it is likely that there will be more and more dangers!

Sangui's father Zheng Fang's face was already pale at this moment, and his whole body was trembling constantly.

Not only because the surrounding environment is terrible, but also because I am worried about my son.

When Zheng Fang thought that Sangui might have suffered an accident, the more he felt sorry for him, and he didn't know how to explain to his family!

At this time, Lu Xiaoyu, who was walking in the front, suddenly spoke out: "Sir, there seems to be a room in front of you!"

"House?" When Song Tianming heard this, he hurriedly walked towards the cottage with his people.

If Sangui had been to this place, he would definitely go in and hide when he saw the house.

Maybe he is hiding inside now!

Everyone hurriedly followed and opened the door, but saw no one.

"Has he not passed here?"

Song Tianming couldn't figure it out either.

Before, they could see some footprints of Sangui along the way, which means that he was coming in this direction.

There is a house here now, but he is not inside. Could it be that Sangui really encountered some beast?

If this is true, even if it is already...

Everyone was very panicked, but Lu Xiaoyu walked around the house with a lantern, then frowned and said, "Sir, someone has been here."

Upon hearing this, Song Tianming hurriedly asked, "Is that just now?"

"Yes, and more than one person."

"How did you see it?" Song Tianming was very surprised. It was obvious that no one had lived in the house for many years. The table was covered with a thick layer of gray. How could anyone have come here?

Lu Xiaoyu pointed to the ground and said, "There is a lot of dust on the table, but the ground is much cleaner. Although there are no footprints, the cleanliness means that someone has walked around and has specially cleaned their footprints to cover up their eyes and ears."

"Is there anything else?"

Lu Xiaoyu looked around again and pointed at the table: "Someone should have been sitting at the table and talked about it just now. Although they deliberately did not approach the table and did not want to leave traces, they still touched the edge of the table."

Sure enough, there were traces of being touched on the edge of the table.

From this perspective, Lu Xiaoyu's guess should be almost the same.

Then she returned to the door: "And sir, this piece of land is obviously much cleaner than here."

"What can this mean?" Song Tianming was not a detective, and his observation and reaction were not as sharp as Lu Xiaoyu, so he asked simply.

"Now we are the only two of us in the house, and our footprints should be left at the door, but there is nothing there, but there is still dust in other places."

"Indicates that someone has cleaned this place specifically?"

"That's right, but if he wants to clean, he should also clean the entire house. Why did he just clean up the one at the door?"

Song Tianming suddenly realized and immediately responded: "I understand, he wants to clear out the traces left there!"
