Zuan put away the note: "Six members of Duke Yunzhong's personal bodyguard class later died in the line of duty. I asked my men to investigate their respective situations."
"There is nothing suspicious about the deaths of three of them, and the remains have been identified. But the deaths of the other three are a little strange."
"What's wrong?" Pei Mianman asked curiously.
Zuan explained: "For example, one of them was besieged by the demon clan, and finally his head was beheaded by a knife. In the end, his colleagues only recovered a headless body."
"Another went to investigate a case of smuggling medicinal materials, but the warehouse that was finally found caught fire, and the whole person was burned to coke."
"There is another person who was sucked out of the blood by the evil thing, leaving only a mummified corpse."
Pei Mianman is a smart person, and immediately reacted: "These people have one thing in common, that is, their identities are difficult to identify."
"That's right!" Zaan nodded. "I suspect that some people have used these methods to steal the pillars. Those corpses may not be his own."
"But how to verify this?" Pei Mianman was worried, "After all, the identities of those people are no longer recognizable."
"A person who comes to this world will inevitably leave various traces. Even the most meticulous murderer will leave unnoticed flaws," Zuan said after a pause, "What's more, a living person may lie, but a dead person will not. ."
Pei Mianman's beauty changed slightly: "You shouldn't be..."
Zaan smiled and nodded: "Beauty, you have nothing to do now, are you interested in accompany me to the cemetery outside the city on a date?"
"Bah, which normal person would go to the cemetery for a date." Pei Mianman was a woman after all, so she instinctively refused when she heard such a thing.
Zuan also knew that it was a bit difficult for her: "Well, you go home and rest first, and I will come back to you after I finish my business."
Pei Mianman looked struggling, but after all, she was reluctant to part with her lover: "No, I'll go with you."
Isn't that home a grave to her
When you can be with your sweetheart, there is no home.
Zuan was also a little reluctant to part with her, holding her hand and laughing: "Alright, our husband and wife are united, and we can break the gold."
"Who and you are husband and wife?" Pei Mianman was furious, but in the end he let him hold it.
Zuan took advantage of the situation to get on his horse: "The cemetery is outside the city, and there is still some distance from here. It is more convenient for us to ride there."
Saying that, he patted himself in front of him and motioned her to sit up.
Pei Mianman's face was a little red, if it was only in private, she would naturally sit up with joy, but now that there are people coming and going in the city, sitting in his arms like this is too flamboyant.
She is not well known in Yunzhong County, but her outstanding appearance and the identity of Miss Pei's family can be considered to be quite famous.
So she tiptoed and sat directly behind Zaan.
"Hold on," Zaun reminded.
Pei Mianman pursed her lips, not to mention holding him in private, she was absolutely willing to do other things, but now she went to hug other men's waists by herself on the street, the girl's restraint made her still Some concerns.
"Drive!" Who knew that at this moment, Zaan caught the horse's belly, and the horse galloped out.
Pei Mianman's center of gravity was unsteady, and she almost fell to the back. Fortunately, she had a high level of cultivation.
Feeling the impact of the opponent hitting him, Zaan's expression suddenly became a little weird, Da Manman really deserves to be Da Manman.
"You did it on purpose." Pei Mianman slapped him on the back angrily, but unfortunately he was reluctant to use it.
Zaan laughed, flicked the reins, and ran all the way out of the city.
It is indeed a great joy in the world to match a BMW with a beautiful woman.
"Hey, slow... Slow down, I can't take it anymore." Pei Mianman was about to be tipped over several times while sitting in the back, so he could only hug each other's waist tightly.
"The soldiers are very fast. Recently, I started to investigate these guards. The forces hiding in the dark may have been alert. I am worried that they will be troublesome if they destroy the corpses." Zaan explained.
"Oh~" Pei Mianman was clinging tightly to the other person at this moment. Although she was wearing clothes, she could still feel the warm warmth of the other person's broad and thick back. She felt a sense of peace of mind.
She only felt that her heart was full of happiness. This was the picture she once fantasized about riding a horse and galloping with her sweetheart, but she didn't expect it to come true.
"Azu, do you know why I came to see you today?" Pei Mianman's face was pressed against his back, and it felt really good to have someone in front of him to block the wind and snow for him.
"Isn't it because you missed me?" Zaan replied with a smile.
"Hmph, that's just one aspect," Pei Mianman didn't feel embarrassed this time. "The other aspect is that Prince Qi wants to know how far your investigation is."
"Oh?" Zu An raised his eyebrows, listening to Pei Mianman's general introduction to Zhao Zhi's visit, he couldn't help sighing, "Do men in this world have problems with their minds, why do they like to send fiancées or something? where other men are."
Sang Qian's unfortunate reminder came to his mind, but now that he was his own cheap brother-in-law, he was too embarrassed to insult him.
But he still likes this kind of behavior, thinking that the more people he meets in the future, the better.
Don't pity me because I'm a delicate flower, everything comes at me, let them ravage me severely.
"Bah, who is his fiancee? I never agreed." Pei Mianman bit the other side a little embarrassedly.
"Of course you are my woman. Zhao Zhi's toad wants to eat swan meat. This time, let him know what it means to lose his wife and lose his army." Zaan laughed.
Pei Mianman always felt that the other party's words sounded strange, but when he heard his rhetoric claiming that she was his woman, she hugged him like that and stopped talking.
On the way, Zu An felt that his whole body seemed to be leaning on a ball of cotton. He thought to himself that it was no wonder that the women who rode motorcycles in the previous life let them sit in the back, but he just subconsciously asked Pei Mianman to sit in the front.
In this way, the two were immersed in their own emotions, and neither of them wanted to break this beautiful feeling.
Unconsciously, I came to the suburban cemetery. Although this world is big, it is not that you can bury it wherever you want, because the land is probably not yours.
The land in the homes of ordinary people is not enough to grow food, and it is very likely that the land will be annexed by the landlords because the land cannot be borrowed in a disaster year.
The government often allocates a piece of wasteland to many people who cannot find a place to bury, but such people often have no one in their family. The wasteland will form mass graves.
As the confidant guards of Duke Yunzhong, their treatment is obviously much better.
In his own fief, Duke Yunzhong specially allocated a piece of land to bury his subordinates who died in the line of duty. Although he disappeared, this system has continued to be implemented very well.
There are also various pine and cypress trees planted nearby, and various flowers are dotted. Of course, there are naturally no flowers in the cold winter season.
The cemetery also has a gatekeeper, who trims the number of flowers and plants on weekdays to prevent wild animals from coming in and destroying the cemetery.
It's just that on such a snowy day, they all hid in the room to keep warm, so how could they come out to investigate.
The two of Zuan easily entered the cemetery and found the tombs of the guards according to the information given by their subordinates.
"Do you really want to dig a grave?" Pei Mianman turned around unnaturally, the road was too bumpy just now, and the two were close to each other, she was still numb now, and she didn't want to be hurt by the other party. See your own embarrassment.
Zaan hummed: "You stand by the side, I'll do it."
Pei Mianman opened his mouth and wanted to say that I was here to help, but thinking about what the other party was going to do, he dismissed the idea.
"Everyone, I'm not bothering you sincerely, but I want to give you justice. After all, someone really hurt you, and you don't want to die like this..." Zuan took out a few sticks of incense that he had prepared and bowed to a few people. Just started to act.
This is a world of cultivation, all of them are humanoid excavators, and digging graves is not as troublesome as imagined.
Soon a coffin leaked out, "This man's name is Cheng Ba, he was ambushed by the demon clan, and his head was beheaded."
As he spoke, he removed the lid of the coffin, and a stench filled the air.
"Be careful of the corpse poison." Pei Mianman on the side pointed a finger, and a wisp of black flame swept across, burning the poisonous gas clean.
"It's up to you to be careful." Zaan smiled, and then began to examine the bones inside.
There is indeed only the skeleton of the body, and the position of the head is replaced by a wooden sculpture.
Although the other party has been dead for several months, the weather in Yunzhong County is cold, and his body has not turned to bones.
"The head is gone, what can I see?" Pei Mianman covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief, and at the same time handed Zaan one.
If it wasn't to accompany her lover, she would never stay in such a place.
