Dragon Pattern Roll Set

Chapter 369 [The Case of the Demon Horse]

Everyone gave Lin Yehuo advice on finding a mount, but it seemed that it was really difficult to find a red horse that fit Master Lin's aesthetics.

At this time, Pang Yu poked his head out of the window and said, "On that torn dragon scroll, there is a case about horses..."

As soon as the young master finished speaking, rumors spread, "Oh! I know, is it the demon horse case near Lin County?"

"Yes, yes!" Pang Yu nodded, and turned to the case on the file, "This file is extremely broken, and there is only one beginning, saying that a doctor from Lin County went to the mountains to collect herbs and did not come back. His family was worried, so I asked relatives, friends and neighbors to search in the mountains together. But after searching for three days and three nights, there was no clue..."

Pang Yu said, "This is the end of the dossier. The rest of the file is broken and cannot be patched."

Everyone then looked at Old Man Feng and Tuozi Ming, who had "we know" expressions on their faces.

The old man Feng said, "This happened at the beginning of this year. Three days after the doctor was lost, his family reported it to the officials. The officials went into the mountains to search, but they still couldn't find it. So everyone thought that the doctor might have fallen off the cliff accidentally. , or strayed into the wild forest deep in the mountains, lost and unable to get out, in short, it is more or less ominous."

Everyone nodded, not understanding where the point was.

"However, a few days later, a woodcutter went into the mountain to cut firewood and found Langzhong's body. The problem is, the place where he found the body was far away from the place where Langzhong entered the mountain!" Ming Tuozi said, "The most suspicious What's more, the doctor was trampled to death."

"Stamped to death?" Zhan Zhao was a little curious, "Stamped to death by what?"

"The autopsy said that he was trampled to death by a horse." It was rumored, "The woodcutter sat down on the ground after seeing the corpse. When he fell, he saw a horse standing on the mountainside in the distance. The horse looked coldly at the people down the mountain."

Speaking of this, the fourth son held his face and asked curiously, "Why is the horse looking at it so coldly?"

"Uh..." Ming Tuozi thought for a while, and suddenly whistled to the front.

As a result, many horses in front turned back together.

Zao Duoduo's big eyes looked behind curiously, and those eyes were obviously——who whistled?

Hei Xiao and Yin Hou ran away and were not there. Chu Qi simply ignored the back, the crazy girl was yawning, and Bai Yunfan also looked back, that look...

Ming Tuozi pointed at Bai Yunfan, "Is that cold?"

The corners of everyone's mouths twitched——Bai Yunfan's eyes, which clearly said "despise you", were not very warm, but they didn't seem cold either.

"What happened to that horse after that?" Zhan Zhao asked.

"The horse ran away, because the horse ran up the mountain, so the woodcutter saw that there was a lot of blood on the horse's hooves and tail." Rumors spread.

Everyone was surprised.

"So, that horse trampled that doctor to death?" Everyone was shocked.

"Probably, the woodcutter said it was a dark horse, but he didn't see the details clearly, and was frightened." Rumors spread, "Afterwards, there were rumors that it was a demon horse, very vicious."

"Horses will trample people to death?" Bai Yutang felt a little suspicious, "For no reason, is this possible?"

Zhan Zhao also nodded, "Even if a person attacks the horse, the horse will at most kick and run away, will it trample the person to death?"

"Later, after the woodcutter reported to the police, he quickly took the yamen servants to the mountains to search... But you also know that the forest behind Lin County is connected to the Magic Mountain. The terrain is dangerous, and there is still a vast primeval forest. Unless you are familiar with the terrain, otherwise Going in is looking for death." Rumors spread, "I asked Ah Yan, and he said that there may indeed be wild horses in that place."

"Aren't wild horses living in large herds on the grassland?" Zhao Pu was curious. "Why are they still in the forest alone?"

"That may have really been created by Yan Bi." Ming Tuozi said, "Yan Bi is an idiot. He has a horse farm in the back mountain of the Demon Palace, and he has collected a lot of good horses to raise. But once, about 30 Years ago, he got a few wild horses back, and one of them was a very special wild horse, which kicked off the fence and escaped in the middle of the night, and a few others who had no family to support also ran into the woods, and they were never found again. A total of ten horses were lost that time, there were males and females, the forest was good except that there were no ferocious animals, and the environment was good... maybe those horses bred in it."

Everyone thinks it is possible.

"However, Yan Bi still doesn't believe that horses will trample people to death." Rumors spread, "It seems that the county magistrate also thinks it is quite suspicious. This case is very sensational."

Bai Yutang was a little puzzled, "Although this case is a bit strange, it's not a big sensation, right? Are there other suspicious things?"

Feng Chuanfeng blinked, and in the carriage, Zhuge Luyi, who was exhausted from pushing Pai Gow, came out to take a breath, just heard it, and said, "Actually, the case itself is not a sensation, but the Langzhong himself is the one who caused a sensation!"

"What's wrong with the doctor?" Gongsun wondered.

"The Langzhong is a very famous Living Bodhisattva in Lin County." Zhuge Luyi said, "His surname is Huang and his name is Ke. He is kind and generous. He doesn't charge money for seeing a doctor, and he has good medical skills. People in Lin County call him Huang Shanren. He died very soon. It's a pity."

Everyone looked at each other.

"Besides, there are some gossips." Feng Chuanfeng continued, "The so-called good man has no good wife. This Huang Shan is good at everything, but his wife is not very responsible. In addition, Huang Shan's family is rich, and he left a lot of inheritance after death. He was monopolized by his wife, and his wife remarried less than a month after his death, and she married a friend of Huang Shanren, and many people secretly rumored that it was his wife and that brother who joined forces to kill him."

Everyone raised their eyebrows - no wonder this case became a "sensation", it turned out to involve love murder.

Zhan Zhao rubbed his chin, "If it was really artificial, how did it create the illusion of being trampled to death by a horse?"

Just as he was thinking, Bai Yutang suddenly patted him and said, "Cat, your grandfather has been away for a long time."

Zhan Zhao was taken aback for a moment, and everyone looked forward, feeling strange—how did Yin Hou ride Hei Xiao out and didn't come back?

Zhan Zhao was a little worried, "Where did Grandpa go?"

"Don't worry." Tianzun waved his hand, "This is near the magic palace, can you lose your grandfather?"

While speaking, the sound of horseshoes was heard from a distance.

Everyone looked up and saw Yin Hou riding back on Hei Xiao, holding something in his hand.

Waiting for Yin Hou to come close, he showed Zhan Zhao what was in his hand.

Zhan Zhao glanced at it, amused, "Huh? Where did the little deer come from?"

Everyone saw Yin Hou coming back with a small sika deer in his arms. The deer was only a few months old. It was fat and cute. It opened its eyes and looked around in fear.

Yin Hou put the little sika deer into the window of the car, and the fourth son picked it up and hugged it tightly.

"You were picked up by someone at such a young age?" Master Wusha chanted Amitabha, "Where's the doe?"

"He died by the side of the road." Yin Hou pointed to the front.

"Dead?" Zhan Zhao was puzzled, "How did he die?"

"The deer was crushed to death by the stone. The fawn was under the body of the doe at the time. If the black owl hadn't found out, I wouldn't have noticed." Yin Hou said, "I don't know why a huge boulder rolled down from the mountain."

The people's chariots and horses rushed to the front, and sure enough, they saw a huge boulder on the side of the road. The stone crushed an adult sika deer, and the ground was covered with blood.

Gongsun got out of the carriage and took a look, reached out and pressed the deer's neck, and then said to everyone, "Move the stone away, it's not dead yet!"

Yin Hou was surprised, "I'm out of breath..."

"It's in shock, maybe internal bleeding." Gongsun said while asking the fourth son to bring a small medicine box.

Several shadow guards moved the stone away, and Gongsun began to treat the deer.

Everyone waited by the side of the road, and sure enough...Gongsun cut a mouthful on the deer's neck and let out a lot of blood. The deer was able to breathe, but it was still dying.

"The leg is broken, and the internal organs are also injured." Gongsun spent about half an hour to heal the deer's injury and fix the broken leg.The shadow guards carried the deer into the carriage and took them to the magic palace together.

Zhan Zhao and the others were about to get on their horses and leave, Bai Yutang patted Zhan Zhao's shoulder lightly, and pointed to the rock.

There wasn't much of a problem with this mountain rock, but there was a long trace at the bottom of the rock, as if someone had pried it with a stick or something.

"Did someone try to pry open this rock to save this deer?" Gongsun came over to look.

"But there are no pry marks or sticks on the ground." Bai Yutang pointed to the ground, and then pointed to a clear and long indentation extending to the top of the mountain. "The stone seems to have fallen from the mountain."

"Did it not fall by yourself, but someone pried it off on purpose?" Lin Yehuo looked up at the top of the mountain, "Who is so wicked? Prying a stone from such a high place, these two deer are so coincidental Nearby, is it intentional?"

"Someone would intentionally attack a mother deer and her daughter?" Zhan Zhao felt that it would be unforgivable if it was true.

"Go and have a look." Zou Liang hurried up the mountain, Lin Yehuo followed, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang also felt a little curious, and followed the indentation up the mountain.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang walked relatively slowly. When they reached a flat spot on the hillside, Zhan Zhao suddenly grabbed Bai Yutang and said, "Yutang, look."

Seeing Zhan Zhao pointing at the ground, Bai Yutang looked down... and saw some grass on the hillside, and there were messy horseshoe marks on the mud beside the grass.

Bai Yutang squatted down and looked, and saw that the grass had been cut off, as if it had been gnawed by a horse.

"Is there a horse grazing here?" Zhan Zhao asked.

Bai Yutang nodded.

"Hey!"

On the top of the mountain, Lin Yehuo waved to Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao.

When the two went up the mountain, they saw Zou Liang squatting on the ground, looking at the ground.

I saw an obvious dent on the ground. The boulder was originally at the top of the mountain. There were stones and crowbars. The key is that there are many footprints of people.

"Is it true that someone pried that rock on purpose?" Zhan Zhao frowned, and looked down the mountain, "This rock fell on that slope first, then changed direction and fell down again, hurting the doe."

"But when it rolled down this side, it hit the horse where it was grazing." Bai Yutang pointed, "I think the person who pried the rock wanted to kill the horse, not the sika deer below."

"This man has been lying in ambush here for a long time." Zou Liang measured the size of his feet, the width of his stride, and the humidity of the soil, etc., and raised his head to tell everyone, "It should have happened this morning. This man has been here since last night. He started to ambush here, he was a man of medium height, thin, and he didn't know martial arts."

"There's no blood on the hillside, so the horse shouldn't be injured, and its reaction is very alert..." Zhan Zhao rubbed his chin, "Who is it? He tried so hard to kill a horse..."

"Hey, you guys."

At the foot of the mountain, Feng Chuanfeng waved to everyone, "It's time to hit the road!"

The four nodded and went down the mountain.

Continuing on the road, talking about the discovery on the mountain, everyone was always a little concerned, this thing is so weird.

"If you really want to go into the mountains, go back and ask Shang Jiutou to lead you." Yin Hou said.

Zhan Zhao nodded.

Bai Yutang asked Zhan Zhao curiously, "Grandma Nine Heads, Grandma Shan?"

Zhan Zhao nodded.

"What nine-headed grandma?" Zou Hao was curious.

Lin Yehuo said, "Grandma Jiutou is a nickname, her full name is Shen Jiu, and people in the world call Shanmu Jiutou, she is very powerful."

"How powerful?" Zhao Pu has a good impression of people with a "nine" in their names, but there are too many powerful people in the Demon Palace.

"Jiu Tou is the oldest person in the Demon Palace." Wu Yifu introduced to everyone, "She is older than the Palace Master, and she was born in this mountain and has lived in the mountain for more than 100 years. To her, the forest where she is going to get lost is her own backyard, and it is safer to go into the mountains and ask her to guide the way."

Everyone nodded and sighed with emotion—the people in the Demon Palace are not only capable people but also weird people, it's so weird to the extreme!

After walking for a while, suddenly the road turned, and the road ahead suddenly became clear... The magic mountain appeared in front of everyone's eyes. On the top of the mountain, the towering magic palace was looming in the clouds.

Everyone was inexplicably excited.

At this time, the gate of the Demon Palace had already been opened wide, and a crowd of people gathered at the gate, waving at the crowd, shouting anything, and some people setting off cannons to celebrate.

Yin Lanci also poked her head out, waving at many uncles and aunts.

The fourth son hugged the deer and looked at the mountain, "It's so lively!"

Zhan Zhao lightly rubbed his arm against Bai Yutang, and winked at him—are you ready?

Bai Yutang looked at the battle on the mountain—have you seen the parents...but there are so many parents...
