That day, deep in the border forest of Country G.

Emperor Shi Jing personally led his men and hung on the cliffs to look for someone.

After a few days of exploration, they can now find people and go much deeper.

At this moment, Emperor Shijing and Chu Yao heard someone shouting, "There's a discovery!!!"

"I've found something, come here quickly!!!"

Upon hearing this, the two immediately asked, "What did you find? What did you find?"

The people below said, "Someone is...stuck on a rock on the cliff below."

Emperor Shijing and Chu Yao's expressions changed and they looked at each other.

Could it be the eldest senior brother?

The two of them didn't say anything, and hurried down to the bottom as quickly as possible.

When we arrived, we found that Pei Yan and a small team had already arrived at a small protruding slope in the middle of the cliff.

In front of Pei Yan and the others, there lay a...corpse.

It looks like he has been dead for several days.

As soon as Emperor Shi Jing arrived, he frowned and asked Pei Yan: "Who is it?"

The man had his back to this direction and his face could not be seen.

Pei Yan hurried over, stopped them, and said, "Boss Di, there's no need to go over there. We've already checked and this person is not one of ours.

But we can confirm that he was one of the gang members who kidnapped Professor Yu. He has been dead for several days. Judging from his injuries, he fell from above. His face is blurred and his appearance cannot be seen clearly. "

Emperor Shijing didn't care at all and said, "I'll check it again."

Then he stepped over and took a closer look to see what was going on.

Chu Yao also came over to check. The smell was so strong that he covered his nose with one hand to hold back the stench, and he retched while checking.

After a while, the two returned.

Emperor Shijing judged, “These people, in addition to bruises and scrapes, seem to have some knife wounds from fighting… There are marks on their bones.

But the most serious injury was caused by the fall. It is estimated that he fought with the senior brother and others up there, causing him to fall down and die directly. "

Chu Yao looked serious and said, "Fighting in such a dangerous place, Senior Brother will not..."

He didn't dare to continue. After all, the eldest senior brother had been poisoned by a Gu at that time, and his body was in poor condition. He had no idea what would happen next.

Will it fall down too?

Emperor Shijing patted his shoulder and consoled him, "Don't scare yourself yet. Everyone, spread out and search around to see if there are any other clues."

He didn't believe it. He had searched all this way and still couldn't find anyone.

"Have."

At this time, a sudden voice came, and it was a subordinate reporting: "There are branches under the slope that have been crushed and cracked, which means that something is falling down, and it seems that a shoe is stuck in the branch.

Look, there it is.”

As he spoke, he pointed in that direction.

Everyone rushed over to see what was happening.

Pei Yan took a closer look and thought he had seen it wrong, so he looked at it twice more to confirm.

His expression changed slightly, and his voice trembled a little, "Those shoes... were worn by the adults when they entered the mountains."

When these words came out, everyone's expression darkened.

Their people's shoes fell in such a dangerous place, so does that mean someone fell from this place?

This made everyone nervous, and they were all afraid that the person might be Lu Yanjue.

Chu Yao immediately asked: "How deep is this cliff? Can we go directly to the bottom of the cliff?"

Another member of the Imperial Alliance shook his head and denied it directly, "No."

"Why?"

Emperor Shijing looked at him and asked.

The subordinate immediately replied, "The fog is so thick that you can't see your hand in front of you. The drone fails to detect the area below 100 meters.

There is also a heavier miasma, which is even black... It may be highly poisonous, and people can't go down at all."

The subordinate paused, then continued, "In this situation, going down is tantamount to seeking death. Moreover, if someone really falls down, it is estimated that there will be no body left."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere became tense.

How could you not understand?

Even drones can’t get down, let alone people!

"What should I do?"

Chu Yao subconsciously looked at Emperor Shi Jing, wanting to see if he had any good ideas.

Emperor Shijing frowned, but was relatively calm. He spoke to comfort her, "Let's see if there are any other clues... One shoe doesn't mean anything!"

After saying that, he went to see the place where the shoes were hung as his subordinates had mentioned.

After some investigation, Emperor Shi Jing came to the conclusion, "This branch doesn't look like it was broken by someone. When a person falls, he has a certain weight. The thickness of this tree trunk can be directly broken by it.

But the broken ends of the branches are still connected, and most importantly, there is no blood on them. "

Chu Yao heard this and took a look.

Depending on the degree of falling, this fracture could indeed scratch human skin or even pierce the body, but there are no such marks on it.

This means it might not have been broken by human body.

As for other places, there are no such traces, which means that the possibility of human death by falling can be ruled out.

Emperor Shijing said again: "Moreover, there are too many branches on this cliff. If someone really falls down, he will be like that dead man, with scratches all over his body. It is basically impossible to avoid the branches.

So, next, everyone used drones to check at an explorable depth to see if there were any signs of the branches on the cliff being broken.

If not, there is no need to waste time here any further.”

He still firmly believed that the eldest senior brother could not fall from here.

The shoe was most likely dropped accidentally during the fight.

Chu Yao nodded and immediately ordered everyone, "Go and check immediately and quickly. Don't let any of them go."

Everyone nodded, "Yes."

That day, I spent the whole day investigating this situation.

The next day, the results came out and no broken branches were found.

Hearing this, Chu Yao breathed a sigh of relief, "Isn't this good news?"

Emperor Shijing nodded, "Indeed, it is. The next step is to look at Jiang Mojue. They go around the cliff and go deeper into the forest. Maybe they can find some clues."

Chu Yao nodded, "Yeah."

I prayed in my heart, hoping they could find it soon. It’s been so long, I was worried sick.

Every time I hear about a situation, my heart aches.

But it's so torturous.

Moreover, if there is no news, I won’t have the heart to tell my sister-in-law when I go back.

They must be waiting anxiously over there.

Because they had been out for a few days, Di Shijing and others were tired, so they returned to the camp first.

Seeing them coming back, Nan Zhiyi came over immediately and asked about the situation, "How is it? Have you found it?"

Emperor Shijing replied, "There is good news. After a more detailed investigation, the eldest brother should not have fallen off the cliff. The bad news is that he has not been found yet."
