Chapter 484: Nightfall (2)
It's night, and it's quietly coming.
Shen Yanxiao sat in the room, waiting for the time to come.
Suzaku stood beside her obediently, waiting for her master's action.
A noisy sound came from outside the window, and Shen Yanxiao, who was about to act, was slightly stunned, and just as he wanted to make a move, the door was pushed open by Uncle Jiu.
Uncle Jiu couldn't see a trace of expression on his old face, he looked at the two little guys in the room and said in a deep voice: "There are some things outside, I have to deal with them, you don't go out in the room, it's not safe at night." ”
Shen Yanxiao nodded honestly.
Uncle Nine left immediately.
The moment Uncle Nine turned to leave, a faint smell of blood wafted out of him.
Shen Yanxiao narrowed her eyes, and after Uncle Nine left, she immediately got up and opened the door.
"Suzaku, do you smell it?" Shen Yanxiao asked.
Suzaku sniffed.
"There's a smell of medicine, and a little bit of blood?" The divine beast's sense of smell was very sensitive, and even in such a strong medicinal fragrance, he still caught that trace of bloody qi.
Shen Yanxiao frowned, this village made her feel indescribably strange, she leaned over the window and looked out, under the shroud of the moonlight, she could see some black shadows scurrying across the avenue of the village at an extremely fast speed.
The shadows were so fast that they couldn't see what they were.
"Let's go, let's take a look." Shen Yanxiao always felt that Uncle Nine was a little strange, although she didn't feel malice in him, but the words of Lao Ba who was interrupted before, and the hint of blood, made her feel very strange.
Taking advantage of the departure of Uncle Jiu, Shen Yanxiao followed the faint smell of blood and walked towards the depths of the house.
Eventually, in the corner of the kitchen, she found the source of the smell of blood.
The slightest smell came from under the stone slab in the corner of the kitchen.
With a movement of his fingers, Suzaku directly turned up the stone slab, and a pitch-black tunnel appeared in front of them.
"You wait up there, someone comes back and tells me." The moment the slate was opened, the smell of blood became more and more intense, and Shen Yanxiao decided to go down to see it himself, maybe he could find out the strangeness of this village.
Suzaku nodded.
Shen Yanxiao took out a condensing crystal from the ring, and with the light, walked down the road.
The narrow staircase led straight to the ground, and the more Shen Yanxiao went down, the more clearly he could smell the smell of blood, as well as the fragrance of some medicinal herbs.
All the way down, a small stone room appeared in front of Shen Yanxiao, less than twenty square meters of stone room, there were four wooden beds, and on each bed, there was a man who was unconscious.
On both sides of the stone chamber, there were countless large and small medicine jars, and Shen Yan Xiaoguang could tell from the smell that most of the medicinal materials in these medicine jars were used to heal wounds.
She walked towards the four plank beds, and by the glow of the condensing crystals, she could see the faces of the four men.
Those were all young men in their twenties, and they basically had injuries on their faces, judging from the injuries, they had been injured half a month ago, and according to the residue of medicine on the wounds, it could be guessed that these people should have received some treatment.
Such a basement suddenly popped out of Uncle Jiu's house, and there were four unconscious young people lying in it, which really made Shen Yanxiao feel very strange.
And what surprised her even more was that when she checked these four people, she actually found badges belonging to the Cave Wolf Mercenary Group on their bodies!
