Chapter 24: White Bones

As Zhou Quan finished speaking, all the immortal officials' eyes began to move back and forth on Zhao Huan and Su An.

"Mr. Li's body was found, but where is Mr. Shangguan?"

Zhao Huan took a deep breath, and he was also a little panicked, but he could never show it at this time.

Trying to calm his tone, Zhao Huan's voice was deep: "You are scared now, and you are back."

"But what after?"

"I will definitely be sent to continue looking for judge Shangguan or even other clues."

He saw all the fear and dissatisfaction on the faces of all the immortal officials. In fact, he was afraid of death and he didn't want to continue searching, but he knew better that if he just went back like this, he would definitely be sent.

"This time, there are experts who are secretly protecting us. We have a support at least. If we come next time, there may not be experts who are secretly protecting us."

Zhao Huan looked around all the immortal officials, and his tone was still low: "None of us can escape this errand."

Su An nodded slightly from one side: "The commander said it well. If we don't search carefully, we will go back today and we will definitely send us to continue searching tomorrow."

"What excuses should you find to avoid it at that time? Is it a serious injury or an excuse? And how many people can really avoid it?"

"Next time I come, there will definitely be no expert in secret to protect us. Then life and death will be true."

Zhao Huan glanced at Su An, nodded slightly, and then stood up first: "Don't worry, hurry up and search."

"Mr. Li's body is here for the time being. We will send it down the mountain when we come back."

They are now going up the mountain, so it would be inconvenient to carry Li Jian's body. Second, if they are sending someone to guard or send him down, it would be even more inappropriate.

After all, these few people were originally there, and if they were acting separately, the danger would only be greater.

Although there are birds and beasts in the mountain, as long as you take some protection next to Li Jian's corpse, there should be no accidents.

Zhao Huan ordered people to cut down some thick branches, hold the branches in one hand, and the magic power in his body was used to move. The thick branches silently entered the rocks and became wooden stakes.

All the wooden stakes were tilted into the rocks, forming an obstacle. Even if ordinary birds and beasts came, they would not be able to destroy Li Jian's corpse.

After doing all this, Zhao Huan let all the immortal officials spread out and go up the mountain side by side, but this time the distance between the two neighbors was much closer.

"Commander, there is a cave here."

Not long after halfway through the mountain, and about two miles away from the top, Zhao Cheng whispered, and in front of him, dense vines were wrapped around the side of a huge rock.

If you look carefully, you will find that behind the lush branches and leaves of the vines, there is a huge hole that is enough for two people to run in parallel.

Moreover, the eyesight of those who practice cultivation is several times stronger than that of ordinary people, but Zhao Cheng was lying on the vine and looking in, and he only saw a distance of one or two meters.

Going inside, it was dark, as if all the light and vision were sucked away.

When Zhao Huan and Su An heard this, they walked over carefully and quickly.

Just after looking into the hole, Zhao Huan and Su An looked a little ugly.

After taking a few steps back, Zhao Huan waved the scimitar in his hand, and saw several white lights flashing through the vines that were originally blocking the hole, all of which were cut into pieces and fell to the ground.

Although the giant trees in the mountains block the scorching sun, they still cannot block the light during the day.

As the vines at the entrance of the cave were cleared, the light shone into the cave, and the white bones in the cave were exposed in front of everyone.

"this……"

Zhao Cheng was shocked and chilled all over, and even felt a gust of cold wind blew across his body.

"These bones have been around for a while."

"In recent years, no missing persons in the county?"

Su An frowned and asked.

"Even if there are, there are only two or three people."

Before others could speak, Zhao Huan had already taken the call. If many people were missing in a row, the county would definitely have taken it seriously.

As for the disappearance of two or three people, this is normal.

"There are at least a hundred people in the bones piled up here."

Su An looked a little ugly, and he never thought that this would happen to Sushan this time. Moreover, until now, the ancient books in his mind still have no prompts, which is a bit strange.

"After a dozen years ago, I was still an ordinary immortal official. I didn't know much, but the scale of searching the mountain that time was not small."

Zhao Huan frowned, as if he was trapped in his memory: "And if there were so many bones in the cave at that time, they would definitely be discovered and would not be left to this day."

Su An frowned, not knowing what he was thinking. After a long time, he spoke: "Cleaning all these corpses and seeing if there are any clues left inside."

"how?"

The last word "How" is to ask Zhao Huan for his opinion. After all, Zhao Huan is the commander, and Su An is just a deputy commander.

In front of the commander, without asking, he ordered directly that Su An would definitely not do such stupid things.

After hesitating for a moment, Zhao Huan nodded: "Okay."

Immediately ordered Zhao Cheng and other immortal officials to start cleaning the bones.

The methods of immortal officials may be very ordinary, but it is still easy to just dig a huge deep pit on the rocks.

But in a moment, Zhao Cheng and others dug another deep pit in the cave and put all the bones in it.

"There are some silver and gold."

"There is still a dagger, but it's rusted."

The voices of Zhao Cheng and other immortal officials echoed in the cave, and they found a lot of things under the white bones.

Su An frowned and didn't say anything. He was thinking about it all, and he could not completely calm down.

“There are traces.”

Zhao Cheng pointed to a stone in the corner of the cave, and there was a sword mark on it.

The sword marks penetrated the stone several inches, and the stone was almost split in half.

Nowadays, many years have passed, and the moss on the stone has dried up, leaving only a few moss marks, large or small.

But this sword mark is enough. Except for immortal cultivators, ordinary people cannot split the stone with one sword even if they are strong.

This is not an ordinary small stone, but a huge stone.

"It was another private practice."

Zhao Huan carefully observed the sword mark, and his voice was full of deep hatred for private cultivation.

"There is another painting."

Zhao Cheng pointed to the corner of the cave again. One of the stone walls was actually carved with a big mountain. There were three marks on the mountain, forming a three-legged tripod.

"Is this Tiger Roaring Mountain?"
