God Concubine Supreme
Chapter 262 Jade Slips (Part 2)
264
Mu Qinglan and Yun Yi walked forward together, surrounded by dense bones, which made the atmosphere between the two of them cold and serious.
Mu Qinglan had been carefully observing the surrounding terrain, and looked down from time to time.
She really wanted to know how these 50,000 soldiers died.
Judging from the situation in this battle, only a few thousand soldiers of the Kasyapa Empire died, accounting for only one-tenth of the soldiers of the Shengyuan Empire.
There is not much difference in the strength of the soldiers of the two sides, but the result is so, obviously there are other factors.
She looked around, and there were some traces of fighting on the dark red cliff.
There are many places, which are obviously caused by swords, guns, swords and halberds.
Could it be that the people of the Kasyapa Empire surrounded the people of the Shengyuan Empire and then murdered them?
But the terrain of the setting sun is steep, so it should be difficult to do so.
The two sides are most likely to confront each other head-on.
But that Jedi will not cause such a result.
Mu Qinglan frowned: Could it be that the other party has a super strong person to help, which caused the overwhelming situation?
But once that kind of strong man made a move, he would definitely leave traces, and she didn't find it.
click.
At this moment, Mu Qinglan suddenly stepped on something under her feet. She looked down, but saw it was a bone.
When she stepped on it, she crushed the bones.
Mu Qinglan recognized that this man was wearing the clothes of the Kasyapa Empire.
It has been nearly a year since what happened in the setting sun. In the desert, under the wind and the sun, these bones have already been moved.
Or under the yellow sand, there are still countless human remains buried.
With a few of them, it is absolutely impossible to turn over.
Mu Qinglan felt a sense of sadness in her heart, and when she was about to walk forward, her eyes faltered, but she suddenly saw something under the bone.
She paused, bent down and took out the thing under the bone.
It turned out to be...
A jade slip?
Mu Qinglan looked at the somewhat incomplete white jade slip in his hand, with intricate patterns carved on the top, and he could vaguely feel the fluctuations inside.
This is... the jade slip used for communication?
Mu Qinglan looked carefully, only to see that there were tiny cracks on it.
It seems that someone once wanted to destroy this jade slip, but failed in the end.
As a result, this jade slip was preserved, and there was even an aura in it.
Although this kind of jade slips is not common, Mu Qinglan knows it best.
Because this kind of jade slip is specially used to convey news!
To put it simply, this kind of jade slip is usually a pair. As long as the power of two primordial spirits is injected into it, there will be an induction between the two jade slips.
Even if they are separated by thousands of miles, as long as one jade slip is broken, the other will definitely burst!
People usually use this kind of jade slips to convey important news, more precisely, news of life and death.
Mu Qinglan is very familiar with this kind of thing, because when her parents left the imperial capital for Jiuge, they left behind these two jade slips!
Sometimes she and her brother miss the two of them so much that they would sneak into the ancestral hall to see the two jade slips.
This kind of thing is too expensive, and it is carefully stored, and ordinary people are not qualified to enter.
And now, I found this kind of thing here...
Mu Qinglan gently rubbed her fingers on it, and looked carefully. Whose power of soul is in this jade slip?
The cost of this thing is not cheap, and ordinary soldiers will not have it.
Fortunately, this thing hasn't broken yet, maybe it's a breakthrough.
Yun Yi also noticed something and walked over.
When he saw the white jade slip, a flash of understanding flashed in his eyes.
"It seems that someone wanted to send a message back, but it failed."
He lowered his eyes, saw the broken bones, and immediately understood what was going on.
Mu Qinglan nodded, and the corners of her lips curled into a smileless arc.
"My luck seems to be very good. The owner of this jade slip seems to be not simple..."
As she spoke, she suddenly raised her head and shouted, "Da Yuan, come here."
Jiang Dayuan was rummaging for something, when he heard the sound, he flew over immediately.
Seeing something in Mu Qinglan's hand, he asked suspiciously, "Third Young Master, what did you find?"
Mu Qinglan passed the things over: "Look, do you recognize me?"
Jiang Dayuan took the things carefully and looked through them carefully.
When he saw the lines on the top, his expression was shocked.
Mu Qinglan stared at him closely: "Whose is this?"
Jiang Dayuan seemed to be still in shock, he raised his head and stared at Mu Qinglan in a daze, and took a deep breath:
"Third Young Master, where did you find this thing?"
Mu Qinglan raised her chin.
Jiang Dayuan followed his gaze, and when he saw the armor belonging to the soldiers of the Kasyapa Empire, the look on his face suddenly became more serious.
"Third Young Master, this jade slip is owned by the squad leader of the Third Army."
Mu Qinglan froze for a moment.
"After Commander Mu Feng came to Jiuge, he made some jade slips like this and distributed them to the generals below. And each of our ten small captains also had one. On the one hand, it was to ensure the lives of the small captains. What's more, the small captains usually lead the team out, and when the situation is urgent, they can crush the jade slip, send back a message, and ask for reinforcements."
As he spoke, he also took out the same jade slip from his body.
"Look, it's mine."
Mu Qinglan took it over and compared the two jade slips together.
No matter the shape, color, or the texture on it, they are all the same!
Her heart was shocked, and she just felt something flash through her mind quickly!
"There is one more thing that my subordinates have never mentioned to you." Jiang Dayuan swallowed, and said with difficulty, "The thing about Luo Riya happened too strangely. , no one crushed the jade slip and sent the news back."
"The subordinates also once felt that this is too abnormal. Even if the situation is critical, there must still be time to crush the jade slips, but none of them did this. It is precisely because of this that Jiu Ge By the time the people here realized something was wrong, it was already too late."
Otherwise, how could they have learned the news after the entire army was wiped out?
Mu Qinglan didn't speak, and looked at the two jade slips with slightly lowered eyes.
Jiang Dayuan clenched his fists tightly and said:
"However, although the structure of this jade slip is the same, it is still possible to identify who it is. Look at the back of the jade slip, is there a small pattern?"
Hearing this, Mu Qinglan turned the jade slip over and saw a fingernail-sized pattern in the lower right corner.
It looks like an ax...
"Our ten squad leaders are represented by ten different weapons. On mine is a rotary knife, and on the one you found is an axe, which belongs to He Jiang, the fourth squad leader."
Mu Qinglan looked at the corpse on the ground.
Could it be that this person... is He Jiang?
However, this person has already become a pile of bones, how to confirm his identity?
Jiang Dayuan said: "You step back one after another, and I'll see if I can identify this person."
Mu Qinglan was a little surprised: "How to identify it?"
Jiang Dayuan gave a wry smile.
"Although the relationship between He Jiang and his subordinates is mediocre, his calf bone was once injured by an arrow and his right arm was also broken, so if the characteristics of this corpse can match his, the identity can basically be confirmed."
Right now, this is the only way.
Mu Qinglan took a step back, Jiang Dayuan stepped forward, cleaned up all the yellow sand around the bones, and carefully put the bones back together.
Fortunately, the bones were wrapped in clothes and armor, so they were still intact.
Soon, a complete skeleton finally appeared in front of my eyes.
Jiang Da originally looked at his right arm, but he saw that it had been broken.
Mu Qinglan's heart skipped a beat.
Jiang Dayuan's movements paused, he lowered his head and couldn't see his expression clearly.
But soon, he looked at the position of the leg bone again.
The armor was removed, and the clothes were peeled off.
A piece of dark white leg bone appeared in front of his eyes.
Mu Qinglan looked over.
There is a hole above the calf bone!
That is definitely the mark left by the sharp arrow!
Jiang Dayuan froze.
Although he had imagined it countless times, when everything really appeared in front of his eyes, when the evidence was presented in such a naked way, he found that he was actually more uncomfortable than he imagined!
"...Why... Why is this..." Jiang Dayuan murmured, his voice hoarse, as if he was crying with endless depression and pain in his throat.
"Master Commander treats us so well...he trusts us so much, why...why did he betray...why!"
Jiang Dayuan's knees gave way, and he knelt down on the ground, covering his face, trembling uncontrollably.
Mu Qinglan looked at the hole in the bone, thinking that he was finally one step closer to the truth.
But in her heart, it was like being torn apart by something, and the pain was severe.
Dad, mother.
When you encountered all this, did you know the betrayal of these people?
If you don't know, then everything you have suffered is too wronged.
If so, how painful should it be?
Betrayed by the most trusted person, pushed to the brink of life and death by them!
Mu Qinglan closed her eyes.
She wanted the truth wholeheartedly, but now she had a premonition that the truth might be extremely cruel.
At this moment, Yun Yi's voice suddenly came.
"There seems to be more down there."
Mu Qinglan froze for a moment, opened his eyes and looked.
But Yun Yi walked to the side of the corpse, staring at a piece of yellow sand, with a cold voice.
"Below, there are fluctuations similar to this jade slip."
I'm sorry dears, the back strain has recurred again, the pain is so painful that I can't sit or lie down, it's really uncomfortable. Three is later, but before ten o'clock
