Chapter 58: The ruined county town

The stars hid in somewhere, and the curtain of the night was like a devil, revealing a hideous face. The entire county town was quiet, as if it was trapped in a dead environment.

Suddenly, a loud sound of horse hooves sounded from a distance. This was a fast horse, as if it had just sounded faintly, and after a moment, it became clear and audible.

Although it was in the dark, the knights on the horse clearly saw the dilapidated gate of the county town. For ordinary people, the huge iron gate seemed to be smashed by something heavy.

The two gates cracked from it and were completely destroyed, leaving behind a deep dark road leading directly into it.

He Yiming was already anxious, but the moment he saw this door, his heart suddenly felt like he fell into an ice cellar. He gritted his teeth and squeezed his feet slightly hard. The red silk horse seemed to be in harmony with him, and it became faster and faster.

He entered the county town without any obstacles. The loud sound of horse hooves stepped on the stone path in the county town, and a sound like a drum beat came, completely breaking the quiet night.

In the county town, there were a large area of ​​black blood that had long been frozen everywhere. Wherever he looked, more than a dozen corpses could be seen crawling on the ground.

Judging from their clothes, they were clearly the ordinary people living in the county town. They probably had no time to escape when the city was broken, so they were killed by horse thieves who broke into the city.

His ears moved slightly, and He Yiming, who was riding on the horse, could even hear several commotions coming from nearby.

Although he didn't know whether it was the remaining horse thief or the lucky people who survived, none of this made him interested in staying.

The Hongling Horse is extremely fast, and even reacts much faster than people. When some people are hurriedly wearing clothes and carrying weapons, He Yiming has long disappeared while riding the horse.

When he passed a mansion on the way, He Yiming's eyes stopped there for a moment.

This place is not unfamiliar to him, and he has entered this place many times.

Congratulating Mr. Cheng's birthday, he found that the Xu family undercover had achieved the firepower. On the wedding ring, he fought against Lin Taoli and secretly learned two strange seal techniques. He instantly came to his mind.

However, the magnificent and famous Cheng Mansion was now burned by a fire without leaving any trace, and he could only search for the glory of the past from the remaining memories.

The nose swayed slightly, and there seemed to be a faint smell of burnt smell in the air. It was obvious that the mansion had not been burned for too long.

Without stopping, He Yiming crossed the avenue and ran towards the place where the He family lived in the county town.

In the county town, whether it is the huge Cheng family or the innocent residents, in his heart, the only thing he is worried about is his parents.

For the He family, my parents have been managing several shops in Taicang County for decades. Although the main function of these shops is just to hide the truth, the main benefit is actually the smuggled goods, but all of this is secretly controlled by my father.

When Taicang County was destroyed, whether his parents and parents could predict the situation earlier and escape from the county was what he was most worried about.

What he feared the most now was undoubtedly that when he returned to the courtyards of the He family, he saw his parents' corpses.

If this is true, even if he kills all the horse thieves, he will not be able to make up for the hatred in his heart.

When I saw the He family mansion, it was dark inside, without even a trace of light.

He Yiming's body moved, and without waiting for the Hong Lingma to stand firm, his body rushed forward, and instantly passed through the wall in front of the house and fell steadily into the yard.

Before he came here, he was worried that this place would become like the Cheng family, and be swept away by fire. However, although the house is still there, he did not feel at all relaxed in his heart.

The moment he entered, he was even more afraid of seeing his parents' bodies in the house with his own eyes.

As he walked along the way, although there were no corpses everywhere in the county town, he had seen at least dozens of corpses. These were all seen on the streets where he passed.

If we include those who did not see and those who died in the house, then there is no idea how many people in the entire county died in this disaster.

At this point, He Yiming had a clear understanding of the ferocity of these horse thieves.

His eyes turned, and his body was like lightning. He walked around the rooms and then he breathed a sigh of relief. There was no body in the He family's yards and the decorations inside were not messed up. It can be imagined that when the horse thief approached, his parents should have received the news, so they retreated so calmly.

He was about to leave, but his heart moved slightly, and listened quietly for a moment on one side of his head.

His face changed slightly, and He Yiming took a big strode, but in just one step he had arrived in front of a rockery in the courtyard.

He stretched out a hand and put it on the rockery. The true energy in his body was circulating, and a huge force surged out like a sea of ​​rushing out.

The rockery swayed and suddenly rose from the ground, and was shocked by his palm.

Dust splashed everywhere, and a large hole was exposed under the rockery. Below the hole was a basement of more than ten square meters.

At this moment, in this basement, a man looked up at the stammeringly, and his eyes were filled with horror, as if he was looking at a terrifying super devil, and even his body was trembling.

However, He Yiming's eyes lit up and he shouted sternly: "He Chen, why are you here?"

This He Chen is a servant in the Hejiazhuang, and is also a servant admired by his father He Quanming. He is an orphan and adopted by the farm. Because of his flexible hands and feet and eloquent speech, he stands out among the servants in the village. He is attracted by his father and brought him to the city, and assists his father in managing shops in the city. He is one of the few managers in the He family.

Now that the He family in the county town is missing, He Chen is hiding here alone, which naturally makes He Yiming very angry.

If he had not been able to reach the innate level and had an incredible power, he might not have been able to discover the mystery under this rockery.

He Chen was stunned at first, but after hearing He Yiming's voice, his eyes immediately shone and his body did not shake.

"Sixth Master, are you the Sixth Master?"

"good."

"You are indeed the Sixth Master." He Chen immediately jumped out of the cave. Although he became dusty because of the dust that had just been flying, the joy on his face was not reduced at all.

He Yiming saw his expression, his face calmed down, and asked, "Why are you here, my parents?"

"Sixth Young Master, it was the master and his wife who asked me to stay here." He Chen smiled bitterly and said, "This secret room was secretly built after the master took over this house. Some of the fine and precious gold and silver in the city were stored here. The master and his wife had already left. Before leaving, he ordered the villain to stay. But..."

He Chen looked at the rockery that had fallen into pieces in the distance, with a bitter look on his face and said, "I'm afraid this secret can't be saved now."

He Yiming opened his mouth wide in surprise, never expecting that it would be the reason.

However, at this time, no matter how much gold, silver and treasures there are, they are hard to be as important as their parents.

"He Chen, what happened in the county?"

"Go back to the Sixth Master, we were doing business that day. The Cheng family suddenly reported that the horse thieves from Taia County were about to come to the door, and asked us to clean up and leave the county town quickly." He Chen thought for a while and said, "After hearing this, the master immediately ordered the store to be closed and all the valuable fines were received in the secret room, and ordered the villain to take food into the secret room for supervision, and ordered that the order would not be allowed to come out no matter what, unless it was until the food was exhausted or someone from the He family came to call him."

He Yiming was worried. It seemed that He Chen didn't know much anymore. He asked casually: "He Chen, do you know where my parents went?"

He Chen bowed slightly and said, "Sixth Master, before entering this secret room, the villain seemed to have heard from the master that he was going to the Cheng family."

He Yiming remembered the tragic situation of the Cheng family, and suddenly a buzzed in his head. He felt that the blood in his body was rushing towards his head, almost bursting his head.

He Chen reached out to help him in surprise and said, "Sixth Master, why are you...ah!"

As soon as his hand touched He Yiming's body, he was shocked to death. Fortunately, even in this case, He Yiming was able to distinguish enemies and friends and did not really use his true energy, otherwise it would be not that simple.

Seeing He Chen lying on the ground, Xuexue was sore, He Yiming woke up a little. He took a quick step and came to He Chen's side, stretched out his hand to pull him up, and a stream of wood-type true energy circled around his body, and immediately healed the small wound on his body.

"He Chen, continue to do what the master said."

After saying that, He Yiming left like a flying one.

He Chen responded, but when he turned around, he was stunned.

Now the rockery has been shaken away, leaving behind a dark big hole. I am afraid that anyone will have an idea of ​​finding out what is going on when they see it, and how can he keep this secret...

He Yiming ran out the door like a flying roar because he had heard the neighing sounds from the red horse from outside the door. In addition, there were more than a dozen angry curses mixed with surprises.

"Good horse, what a good horse, catch it quickly..."

"Oh, I ran over there, block it quickly..."

"Here you ran over, what a fierce horse..."

Who else can be willing to catch horses at this moment besides those unscrupulous horse thieves?

He Yiming's body silently rolled out of the wall, and just stood in the corner of the wall, Hong Lingma immediately discovered it, turned around, her blood hooves flew, and she had instantly run over.

Behind it, there were more than a dozen men with ferocious faces, but these men were undoubtedly horse lovers. They would rather be knocked away by horses than use weapons to slash them.

However, when Hong Lingma stopped, they realized something was wrong when they saw He Yiming.

One of them raised the big knife in his hand and cut it off without saying a word. Looking at the fierce light flashing in his eyes, it can be seen that he has become addicted to killing these days and can no longer stop his hands and feet.

He Yiming glared at his eyes, his upper body did not move or shake, and he suddenly kicked.

This kick was as fast as lightning and as heavy as Dazhui. It was kicked out with a bang, and it was much faster than that man's knife.

Although the man watched He Yiming kick this kick, he couldn't keep up with the reaction. The idea of ​​retreating or avoiding it flashed in his heart, and the kick was already kicking it in his chest.

Although he just lit the toes, the man flew backwards as if he was hit by a thousand pounds of hammer.

The man was in mid-air, and the big knife in his hand had fallen. With the sound of the jingling, the horse thief flew more than ten meters away before falling heavily.

The other horse thieves were all shocked. The leader threw his sleeves upwards, and an instant arrow rushed straight into the sky, making a sharp roar that rang through the county town.

He Yiming sneered repeatedly. He was worried that he could not gather the horse thieves in the county, but someone actually did it for him.

The leader had no idea what He Yiming was thinking. He wanted to delay time and bowed and said, "I'm under the red scarf and stole Zong Kui, who is you, why should I kill my brother?"

He Yiming knew very well that this person was delaying time and waiting for his companions to meet up, but the two of them were the same, and He Yiming sneered and said, "You don't have to worry about who I am. I just want to know that the Red Turban thief has always been in Taia County, so why did he attack Taicang County?"

Zong Kui raised his eyebrows and said, "The third leader Guan Weitou, our Red Treasure robber, and the fourth leader Liao, all died at the hands of the Cheng family and the He family in Taicang County. Therefore, our boss led the crowd to avenge his brothers."

He Yiming's face became colder and colder, and he said, "Avenge your brothers, hehe, you can kill people, but if you kill you, you will have to avenge them. You are truly a horse thief."

Zong Kui said coldly: "Yes, we can kill people, but people can't offend me."

He Yiming lowered his head and asked suddenly: "I know what Guan Wei is doing, but what about Brother Liao? How can you be sure it was done by the He family in Taicang County?"

Zong Kui glanced into the distance and saw the torches flashing in the distance approaching quickly. He was overjoyed, but he said in a constant state: "The fools in the He family thought that no one knew each other after they left Taicang County, but they didn't know that the horses they rode were marked by the He family in Taicang County. We escaped brothers just chased and secretly checked them out, and wouldn't we know. Hehe, the boss was hesitant to run hundreds of miles to wash Taicang. But after receiving the news that Brother Liao was also dead, he made up his mind to send his beloved mount to the two bosses of the Blue Sea Pirates Group, so the four thieves group performed one by one."

Zong Kui said slowly and the more he said, the joy in his eyes became stronger and stronger. At this moment, there were already a lot of people, and dozens of people came from several directions, with more than a hundred people in total.

One man whispered: "Zongkui, what happened, why did he fire an arrow?"

Zong Kui hurriedly said respectfully: "Li Zhen, there is an idea here, but there is a good horse."
