The sound faded away, but there was still silence all around. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Suddenly, the sound of birds from the bottom of the cliff sounded very noisy, like a large number of birds.

Ye Cheng's upper body leaned forward slightly, wanting to see what was happening, and suddenly a black shadow quickly crossed in front of him, carrying a strong wind, and his body was swept back by the strong wind.

Zhu Zi'an immediately grabbed Ye Cheng and asked in surprise, "Eighth brother, are you okay?" ”

"It's okay......" Ye Cheng replied softly.

After a moment's relief, he looked into the air outside the cliff and looked up in shock.

The shadow had flown over the platform to obscure the sun in front of them, plunging the open ground into darkness. The black shadow was made up of a flock of vultures gathered and flew together, and the vultures kept flapping their wings, which were more than a meter long, to stop their bodies in the air.

Vultures are easily recognizable, they are black-brown in color, with a completely bare head and nape and almost no feathers.

They are large birds of prey, reaching a height of 1.2 meters, with outstretched wings nearly 80 centimeters long, and they are good at gliding but not good at flying.

But after a closer look, Ye Cheng felt strange, these vultures on the top of his head were a little different from what he knew.

The vultures flew up from the bottom of the mountain at a rapid pace, and their outstretched wings were about one and a half meters long, nearly twice as long as he knew. And they have big heads and big mouths, and their mouths are the size of the palm of a man's hand, and they look strong and powerful, which is very weird.

Looking at it this way, these are just another species of birds that resemble vultures.

Cao Rou looked at the vultures flying in the air seriously at this time, and said, "General Baifang, let's start."

"Yes" In the white fang on the right side of Cao Rou, he picked up a square piece of meat from his heel and quickly threw it on the platform.

The vultures locked their eyes on the piece of flesh and scrambled down to fight for the piece of flesh that had fallen on the corpse. The birds prey on the food, and it looks very spectacular, and they scream wildly, as if they are determined to win.

"Swinging ......" The vultures kept crashing into the platform, making the platform rattle and tremble slightly.

In the end, the piece of meat was snatched by a vulture that landed directly above. A palm-sized square piece of meat, the vulture swallowed it into its palm-sized mouth as soon as it took it, without hesitation.

The other vultures did not insist on the piece of meat, but began to peck at the corpses that had been piled up in a hill on the flat bed.

A vulture bit a piece of meat on the corpse's thigh with its curved beak, and pulled it so hard that a whole piece of meat the size of a palm fell out, and the vulture did not hesitate to put it in its mouth and chew it and swallow it in its stomach.

Then put your mouth on your wings and rub it, then bite it with your mouth to the spot you just bitten. After pulling the meat out just now, I could already see the bones inside, but the vulture was not afraid at all, and even the thigh bone was broken when it bit down.

"This bite force!" Ye Cheng was extremely surprised to see that those vultures had actually bitten off the hard thigh bones, and said in shock, "Could it be that their mouths are abnormally large, just to be able to bite off the bones and evolve?" ”

Judging by this powerful bite force and size, these vultures were indeed not the ones he knew.

Soon, the hill of corpses was covered with vultures, like a black cloth.

The vultures kept pecking, gnawing at the bones and swallowing them into their stomachs.

A large amount of blood flowed down the platform to the branches of the towering trees, and then down the branches to the trunk of the main tree to the cliff wall, stretching into the cliff wall.

The tree seemed to have grown up with blood and water.

When the vultures devoured the corpses, the faces of the people on the open ground were solemn and serious.

They looked at the platform and watched as their relatives or friends lying on it were swallowed into the vulture's belly. Instead of being angry, they rejoiced for those who died.

Because the dead received the highest funeral treatment, and there was also the princess Cao Rou to see them.

As a result of this battle, there were only three people left in the village, only two bandits in Zhongyi Village, all ten Lei Ji soldiers were killed, only more than 100 people were left in the 500 white-clothed army, and more than a dozen people were seriously injured, and their lives and deaths were uncertain.

Later, Cao Rou persuaded that the 1,000 old and weak soldiers who attacked also suffered heavy casualties when dealing with the soldiers of Xiaoluan, and only three or four hundred survived in the end.

Ye Cheng and the others had thirty or forty people when they set out from Qingkushan Mountain, and now there are only twenty-one people left.

This price was painful, deeply imprinted in Ye Cheng's heart, and made him remember to be extra careful in doing things in the future to avoid such a big casualty again.

Suddenly, the solemn celestial burial was still going on, and a man squeezed in from the crowd behind him in a panic, and said in a panic behind Cao Rou, "Princess, it's not good....... The emperor ......."

Everyone turned their heads when they heard the voice.

Cao Rou said calmly, "Don't panic, say something slowly"

The man swallowed his saliva, eased up, and said hurriedly, "The emperor has come to Ha County, and he wants to arrest an old man halfway up the mountain."

"Do you know why he wants to arrest people?" Cao Rou asked.

The man shook his head, panicked.

Everyone's faces were a little frightened, as if they were a little surprised by the emperor's sudden visit.

When Ye Cheng heard that he was going to arrest the old man, and he was still halfway up the mountain, he had some doubts in his heart, "Is it to arrest ...... But why arrest him" he couldn't figure out.

At this time, Bai Yingping and Zhuziju leaned in front of Ye Cheng, and their faces were a little grim.

Zhu Ziju and Bai Yingping glanced at each other and nodded.

Then Zhu Ziju looked at Ye Cheng and asked, "Eighth brother, the person they want to arrest is halfway up the mountain, could it be ......?" ”

Ye Cheng was a little surprised, he looked at Zhu Ziju and whispered, "Brother Ziju, do you think so too?" ”

Zhu Ziju nodded.

Zhu Ziju and Bai Yingping are thoughtful, if even they think so, then they will not be far from ten.

Now we have to figure out what the emperor wants to do to arrest people? But for Ye Cheng, who had been lying in bed for a week, there was no source of information and no guessing could be made.

He turned his head to look at Cao Rou on the side and asked, "Cao Rou, we already know who the emperor wants to arrest, but I want to know what angry words the emperor said after losing the game?" ”

Whenever a person loses a game that should have been won, he loses his temper and says something angry. For example, cutting off hands and killing heads, like the emperor, should be able to say something like the Nine Clans. ，

Cao Rou was a little puzzled, but soon looked at Ye Cheng with a sudden realization, and said, "By the way, six days ago, in Chaoshang, I saw him furious and said that he wanted to arrest the person who helped us and put this person to death" Soon, she was dumbfounded, "Is it ......?"

"It seems that you have already guessed, we have to find a way," Ye Cheng said in a low voice.
