Chapter 83: A Wolf's Tooth Arrow

"Young master, this is Jiuping Town!" Qin Hu grabbed his horse and pointed to a ruined village and town in front of him, at this time the morning sun had already shone on the entire land, and the scene in front of him could be seen very clearly. Qin Hu and the others did not speak, there was silence in the heavens and the earth, only the horses made a "clang" sound.

Fang Yiai stood on the high slope, looking at Jiuping Town not far away, this town is really big, bigger than the previous Maliu Town, in this place, it is really rare to have such a prosperous place, but at this time, Jiuping Town has no vitality at all, leaving only traces of burning everywhere, revealing a trace of cold breath everywhere.

"Tubo people, what a ruthless heart!" Fang Yiai suddenly had a sense of déjà vu, as if she had returned to Niujia Village two years ago, were those villagers okay in heaven? Every year, Fang Yiai will go to Niujia Village to pay respects to those villagers who died, but even so, Fang Yiai still can't find that peace of mind.

"Young Master, shall we enter the town?" Qin Hu stood behind Fang Yiai, like a loyal guardian, in more than two years, Fang Yiai has become better and better, which also makes Qin Hu very happy.

"Of course you go, since you're here, how can you go home empty-handed?" Fang Yiai frowned slightly, and tied the horse to the entrance of the town, leaving ten people to watch the horse, and the others walked into the town together.

Walking on the streets of Jiuping Town, Fang Yiai can feel the prosperity of Jiuping Town before, the wide streets, and the dense houses, which should have been a market before, but now only a piece of burned dust remains.

"Let's search separately, and come back as soon as you find any suspicious signs!"

"Yes, young master!"

The guards separated in groups of threes and twos, leaving only Qin Hu by his side. Qin Hu held the knife with a confused look on his face, "Young Master, what can this Jiuping Town have, why do you have to investigate here?" ”

"Uncle Hu, to be honest, I don't know if I can find something, but I have a feeling that things are too strange, why are the Tubo people just interested in Jiuping Town, I think there must be a reason. As for whether I can find out in the end, I don't know, but I hope what I think is true! ”

Fang Yiai feels that he can only do his best when he encounters things, and sometimes excessive attachment will only lead him into a kind of magic barrier.

Fang Yiai and Qin Hu also carefully observed the surrounding houses, but they found nothing except broken tiles and black soil in the open air.

"Uncle Hu, did the Tubo people often do this in the past?"

"I don't know much about the Tubo people, but I am very familiar with the habits of the Turks and the Khitans, and the Turks often violate the borders of Youzhou and Yunzhou, but there is never a situation where the whole village is plundered, because they have plundered all the people, who will they rob next time?" Qin Hu couldn't figure out what the Tubo people were doing, since they wanted to rob why not rob other towns, it seemed that Youji Town was more prosperous than Jiuping Town.

"Well, I'm just curious about this, if the Tubo people really need to capture slaves, they can just kidnap people directly at the border, why do they have to run to the territory of Songzhou, so there must be something strange about this matter!"

Fang Yiai had a suspicion from the very beginning that if the Tubo people had to come to Jiuping Town, it would prove that there must be something to attract the Tubo people in this town.

Fang Yiai was thinking quietly, when Qin Yong ran over, and raised his hand and shouted: "Young master, I have found something, what do you think this is?" ”

Qin Hu glared at Qin Yong, this guy is not a big boss, how can he still not be calm when he encounters something, what is there to make a fuss about. After taking the things in Qin Yong's hand and looking at them carefully, Qin Hu's face also changed a little, "Young Master, look! ”

"Isn't this a wolf's tooth arrow used in the army?" Fang Yiai was also shocked at first glance, how could there be wolf tooth arrows in the place where the Tubo people plundered.

"Young master, could it be that someone is pretending to be a Tubo person, but this wolf tooth arrow can only be configured by my twelve guards of the Tang Dynasty, even if the government soldiers use some inferior light feather arrows, is it made by our own people?"

Fang Yiai lowered his head and sighed, no wonder Qin Hu had this idea, the Tang army was heavily managed, and the wolf tooth arrows would never flow out, and only the twelve guards of the forbidden army would be equipped with wolf tooth arrows.

"Uncle Tiger, don't jump to conclusions too early, in fact, the wolf tooth arrow is not unique to my twelve guards, have you forgotten the ventilation valley two years ago?"

After Fang Yiai's mention, Qin Hu remembered the more than one million wolf tooth arrows that he lost two years ago.

"Young Master, does this matter have anything to do with that monkey spirit?"

"It's still uncertain, and besides, whether the people who robbed Jiuping Town are Tubo or not, as long as we go back to the camp and ask General Yin Wenzhong, we will know" Fang Yi caressed the wolf tooth arrow in his hand, frowned and asked: "Where did you find the wolf tooth arrow, take me to see it!" ”

"I found it on a window, young master, please come with me!"

After a while, a few people came to a dilapidated courtyard, which was a large courtyard, and it is conceivable that it used to be a large family, and there were many houses in this courtyard. After Qin Wu and the others saw Fang Yiai coming, they pointed to a window and said: "Young Master, it was here that the wolf tooth arrow was found, at that time, Ah Yong and I were searching the west courtyard, and after walking here, we saw the wolf tooth arrow nailed to the window edge at a glance!" ”

"Hmm!" Fang Yiai walked to the window and searched carefully, the entire edge of the window was burned black, maybe because of a special reason, the edge of this window was not burned clean. Fang Yiai touched the window edge with his hand, and there was immediately more black ash on his hand, and when he saw the place where the wolf's tooth arrow was nailed, Fang Yiai frowned slightly.

"Young Master, have you found anything?" Qin Hu saw that Fang Yuai had not spoken for a long time, so he asked with some concern.

"Uncle Tiger, you push this window edge hard!"

Qin Hu didn't know why, but he still pressed his hand on the wooden ridge, and what made Qin Hu depressed was that before he could exert his strength, he heard a "click", and the wooden ridge broke off in response.

Qin Hu blinked, and said speechlessly: "Young master, this broken window edge is too bad, I haven't used any strength, it's broken!" ”

"Hehe, Uncle Tiger, it's normal if it's broken, you didn't use your strength to break this wooden edge, do you say that the strength launched with the wolf's tooth arrow will not stop shooting this burned wooden edge?" Fang Yiai smiled lightly.

"Young Master, are you saying that this wolf's tooth arrow was deliberately left behind?" Qin Hu asked a little suspiciously.

"Of course, do you have any other explanation?"

"Maybe it was shot by the Tibetans before the fire!" Qin Yong frowned and said.

"Fool, can you use your brain, if it was left before the fire, would the arrow be so clean?" Qin Hu patted Qin Yong angrily, why didn't this guy get his way.

"Uncle Tiger is right, this wolf tooth arrow was deliberately left for us, and it was just nailed up. It has been eight days since the Tubo people looted Jiuping Town, and there will be a little dust left on the arrow in these eight days. But now the arrow is very smooth, not to mention the traces of burning, not even a trace of dust. I'm a little skeptical that the person who left us the wolf's tooth arrow had to wipe it every day, otherwise how could it be better preserved than the wolf's tooth arrow in the arsenal? Fang Yiai explained with a smile, and it is often reasonable to guess that there can be such a judgment.

"Young master, are you saying that there are other people in this Jiuping Town besides us?" Qin Yong looked around and said with some vigilance.

"Yes, from the moment we entered Jiuping Town, it has been discovered!"

"This, Ah Yong, what are you still doing in a daze, don't hurry up and find someone!" After listening to Fang Yuai's words, Qin Hu suddenly showed a look of surprise.

"Uncle Tiger, no need, Jiuping Town is so big, it's still easy to hide people one by one, with dozens of us looking for it, it's tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, since people don't want to show up, then let's not waste our efforts!" Fang Yiai waved his hand to stop Qin Hu's behavior, which made Qin Hu and the others very puzzled.

"But it's always bad to be stared at all the time!" Qin Hu whispered.

"Hehe, Uncle Tiger, you think too much, if people can stare at us every day, that's also the ability!"

Fang Yiai shook his head with a smile, picked up the wolf tooth arrow and looked at the sun, with a strange smile on the corner of his mouth.

When Qin Hu saw Fang Yiai's smile, he knew that he must have discovered something.

Fang Yiai and others searched in Jiuping Town, but found nothing else, and left Jiuping Town after resting for a while. It's just that when Fang Yiai and the others walked out of the town, a head poked out of a dilapidated house, and there was still a trace of doubt on his face.

"Fang Yiai, are you a good person or a bad person?"

This question, but no one answered, whether it was a good person or a bad person, I'm afraid I can't even tell Fang Yiai himself.
