Chapter 6 The Slaughterhouse

"Why did it stop?" In the carriage, Tang Yuan was discussing the current situation with Chen Mo with great interest, but the car suddenly stopped. Tang Yuan frowned slightly and walked out of the carriage and asked.

"Young Master!" The general of the Tang family rode his horse to the front of the car and whispered: "We found Zhuangzi being slaughtered ahead... or else..."

The general was hesitant and wanted to persuade his young master to return to the city. In these turbulent times, it was not safe even if they brought many people with them. If something happened to his young master, they could just accompany him, but he still had a family to care for.

To support yourself, if you don't have yourself, I'm afraid even eating will be a problem.

"Slaughterhouse?" Chen Mo walked out of the carriage. Although he hadn't seen it yet, he could smell the bloody smell in the air. His face sank slightly. He remembered that although the Taiping believers were rebellious, there were few slaughterhouses.

Most of the things that happened were to drive away the people and coerce them into attacking the city.

Of course, Qingzhou is different from Xuzhou. The Yellow Turban bandits are more violent here, and the Taiping Rebellion has been around for about half a year, so there will always be changes.

"Yes, our people have gone to see him. He died not long ago." The general nodded, his face a little unsightly. Donglai County is relatively peaceful. Who would have thought that this happened more than ten miles away from the city.

Waiting for something.

"There is no defense in the village?" Chen Mo stood on the carriage and looked far into the distance. There were still fireworks over there that had not dissipated.

"Yes, and quite a few. They are the famous Zhuangzi nearby. There are more than 300 households, and the number of Xiangyong alone is more than 400." The family general was a little frightened. There were more than 400 people in Zhuangzi, and there was not even a beacon.

They killed them all when they had time to release them. This time the thieves were a bit cruel.

"There are still such rampant thieves in our Donglai County now?" Tang Yuan was also a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers. Hearing this, instead of being afraid, he became interested and said: "Let's go, I'll go and have a look."

"Sir, this..." The general was shocked and quickly stopped him: "These thieves are quite ruthless, and we may not be able to resist them."

"Don't be alarmed. Since the thief killed someone, I'm afraid he won't dare to stay for a long time. I'll find out later when I go and take a look." Tang Yuan didn't care and said a little excitedly.

The general is a little bitter. Although his young master usually prides himself on being a gentleman and never punishes his servants without reason, his temper is so stubborn that even nine oxen can't pull him back from his decision.

Chen Mo also became interested and did not dissuade him. As for the danger... what Tang Yuan said actually made sense. No matter what the reason was for killing the village, there was no reason to keep it.

"Find a place to light the fireworks and notify the nearby people to rush here." Chen Mo said to the general. No matter what, it is better to be more cautious. Although he saw that everyone's luck and fate had not changed, he looked forward to it.

Techniques are not omnipotent.

"What Mr. Chen said is absolutely true!" The Tang family general nodded when he heard this. Fortunately, there is a sensible person here. Although most of the thieves are gone, it is safer to recruit the guards patrolling nearby.

A group of people got out of the car. The children of the aristocratic families had only heard about the current world in rumors and had never seen it before. When they heard that there was danger, not only did they not have the slightest fear, but they were eager to go together.

Check it out, and if you can find any clues, it will be spread out in the future, and you will benefit from a certain family's young master. He is young and brave, and defeated the Yellow Turban bandits at the age of ten. Just thinking about it makes me feel very majestic.

"Brother Chen, I heard that you once helped Zang County magistrate defeat tens of thousands of bandits in Quyang. Are those bandits powerful?" Xue Yu approached Chen Mo and asked.

"Not powerful." Chen Mo shook his head when he heard this. In terms of combat power, the Yellow Turban thieves are incomparable to the imperial troops. A few hundred people can drive away tens of thousands of thieves. How powerful can they be? But in those days, Chen Mo

I don't want to recall it, but now I look at these wealthy young men who want to experience it one by one, and I sigh in my heart. This is probably the fearlessness of those who don't know, right?

As Zhuangzi approached, the bloody smell in the air became stronger and stronger. Zhuangzi was very big, much larger than Chen Mo's hometown. It had high wooden walls and arrow towers. It was hard to imagine such a well-defended Zhuangzi.

How was it breached without a sound? This place is only a dozen miles away from Dangli, and even closer to Lu Township.

"Crunch~"

The ajar door of the village was pushed open by two guards, and corpses with hideous looks were lying around, which was shocking.

Chen Mo frowned and looked at all this. From the looks of death, these people had experienced fierce battles. He even saw the corpses of officers and soldiers...

"Ugh~" A young man suddenly turned pale and knelt on the ground, lowering his head and vomiting wildly.

Immediately afterwards, like a chain reaction, a group of teenagers, the oldest no more than fifteen years old, lay on the ground and kept vomiting. For them, it was definitely the first time in their lives to see such a purgatory-like existence on earth.

arrive.

Chen Mo didn't have much reaction. In terms of misery, he had experienced too much during his time in Quyang. He had seen both Yi Zi and Shi Yi. The current scene was nothing to him.

"Master Chen..." The general of the Tang family glanced at his own son in embarrassment, and his eyes fell on Chen Mo. Now a group of friends have vomited. It seems that Chen Mo is the only one with the highest status here and a clear mind.

"Send someone to inform the government office. No corpses of bandits were seen, and there were no signs of fighting on the wall outside. The fighting basically took place inside the fortress. I'm afraid it was not a rebellion by bandits." Chen Mo looked at the general and said.

"We have already sent people." The family general nodded. Before they joined these wealthy families, they were rangers. They could tell the difference at a glance. However, Chen Mo, a ten-year-old child, not only was not afraid at this time, but

It's a bit remarkable to be able to see this.

"Please check and see if there are any survivors." Chen Mo nodded to the general.

"Pfft~" The general was about to reply when he saw a sharp arrow suddenly appeared and inserted diagonally at the feet of the two of them. The tail of the arrow kept trembling.

"Protect the young master!" The general's expression changed and he quickly protected Tang Yuan, who had tears streaming down his face.

Chen Mo was alert before the sound of breaking through the air. When the opponent's arrow cluster hit the ground, he had already taken off the short bow on his shoulder, picked up a sharp arrow, and without looking carefully, pointed in the direction of the arrow cluster.

Shoot away.

"My archery skills are good, but I don't have enough strength." A clear and somewhat unruly voice sounded from above. Chen Mo looked up and saw a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old sitting sideways on an arrow tower not far away.

He stared at Chen Mo with falcon-like eyes, and played with an arrow in one hand, which was exactly the one Chen Mo shot before.

"Where is the thief?" The general of the Tang family was shocked. Only then did he find the other party, drew his sword in his hand, and shouted sternly.

"Brother, there is no one left alive!" Another young man came out from the depths of Zhuangzi with a few people. Seeing Tang Yuan's posture, he quickly protected himself around the arrow tower and gave a fierce look to this side. The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
