Shocking! The killer traveled through time and space and became a female Shura, killing like crazy

平州

The fifty shadow guards sent by the emperor to Pingzhou also arrived quietly, dressed in black and agile, waiting for the shadow guards to line up in an orderly manner.

"This subordinate pays homage to His Majesty Prince Mu."

"Everyone, please excuse me. Does the Emperor have any secret instructions for me?"

The shadow guard took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Shangguan Yunting, "Your Highness Prince Mu, this is Leng Jian. This is the secret decree that the Emperor has ordered me to give you."

Shangguan Yunting carefully examined the contents of the letter. After reading it, he ordered, "Leng Jian, take your shadow guards to investigate the whereabouts of the troops training at Xiping Mountain. Send a few more shadow guards to escort the scrap metal from the mountain to the Xincheng Armory and hand it over to Supervisor Qin."

"I obey my orders."

His expression was cold as he glanced at everyone and spoke slowly, "The matter of the Xipingshan Iron Mine is of great importance and cannot be lost."

The shadow guards' eyes were firm as they responded in unison, "As you command."

At this time, Zhang Qiao and Su Xin hurried over and said, "Subordinates greet the master."

"Are there any results in tracking down the killer?"

"Master, there is a deep secret passage in Xiping Mountain. Not far from the secret passage is the territory of Qingzhou."

"Xu Wen and his guards are chasing the killer. We'll be back to report to you."

"It seems the killer knows the terrain of Xiping Mountain very well."

"Master, I suspect the killer has an inseparable relationship with the people in the Xipingshan training camp, or they are the same group."

"How to say?"

"The terrain in the mountains is complex, with many forked roads and a very hidden training ground. The killer is very familiar with the structure there."

Shangguan Yunting thought for a moment, "Su Xin, take Jian and the others to Qingzhou to contact Xu Wen. I suspect they have moved their forces to Qingzhou. If you find any clues, don't alert them and report immediately."

"I obey my orders."

Su Xin brought his shadow guards to Qingzhou from the secret passage of Xiping Mountain. Xu Wen left secret codes along the way, and they followed the secret codes to find Xu Wen's whereabouts.

Shangguan Yunting continued to deal with the snow disaster in Jia County.

Xue Fan sat in the study with a cold and sinister look in his eyes. "He Feng, the shadow guards sent by the emperor have arrived in Jia County. Shangguan Yunting has ordered them to secretly investigate the matter of the Xiping Mountain training camp. He has told Qing Jue to be cautious and avoid their presence. Do not engage with the shadow guards, otherwise all that has been planned for many years will be ruined."

"Secretly monitor the Shadow Guards. If they find Qingzhou, report immediately."

"I obey my orders."

Xu Wen, along with a dozen guards, has been tracking down Qing Jue and the others. When they arrived in Qingzhou, they learned from various sources that large wild beasts have been appearing in Yunmen Mountain since the first half of last year. The common people and hunters who went up the mountain could not get out, and even the people from the government office could not escape. The common people were so scared that they dared not get close to the foot of the mountain, for fear of losing their lives.

Xu Wen thought to himself that there must be something fishy going on here. It was the same thing in Xiping Mountain a few years ago. Later, the people did not dare to go near the foot of the mountain, which made it easier for the thieves to act.

They may use the same trick again and decide to lead the guards to sneak into Yunmen Mountain under the cover of night to investigate.

Night falls, covering the earth.

Xu Wen and others, dressed in black night clothes, appeared in the mountains and forests like ghosts.

Yunmen Mountain was shrouded in thick darkness, and the surroundings were eerily quiet, with only the sound of their light footsteps echoing in the woods.

Xu Wen walked cautiously ahead, keenly aware of the many unusual features hidden within the mountain. For example, he noticed a carefully camouflaged trap beneath his feet. Looking around, he discovered that seemingly ordinary trees concealed hidden weapons. A single touch would trigger these hidden weapons, catching anyone off guard and leading to their untimely death.

It was difficult for ordinary people to escape the disaster, no wonder none of the hunters and officials survived.

Xu Wen signaled the guards behind him to stop. He took out a dagger from his arms and carefully removed the disguise of the trap in front of him. The bottom of the trap was covered with sharp wooden stakes. Anyone who fell into the trap would surely die.

He gently warned, "Everyone, be careful. This place is full of traps and hidden weapons. Don't alert the enemy."

The guards nodded and became more alert.

At this moment, Yunmen Mountain is like a dormant giant beast, hiding unknown dangers in the darkness.

Xu Wen knew that there were many dangers ahead, but they had no intention of retreating. Instead, their eyes became more determined.

First understand the distribution and patterns of traps, find the breakthrough point, and then move forward cautiously.

The forest grew deeper and deeper, and the surroundings became eerily quiet. Suddenly, his sharp eyes caught sight of a figure moving ahead, signaling everyone to take cover.

After careful identification, he determined that it was a secret sentry. In order not to alert the sentry, he held his breath, concealed his body, and quickly hid in the weeds nearby.

At this moment, everyone was nervous and didn't dare to breathe.

Xu Wen's brain was working rapidly, thinking about countermeasures. He couldn't move forward rashly. Once his actions were exposed, not only would his life be in danger, but it would also alert the enemy and ruin the whole thing.

But we can't remain in a stalemate forever. The longer it drags on, the greater the variables will be.

In the brief silence and tension, his eyes gradually became firm, and a risky plan quietly took shape in his mind. He planned to take advantage of the gap between the secret sentries changing shifts, lead the guards to leave this dangerous area as quickly as possible, go back to report to the master, and then make further plans.

They held their breath and waited quietly for the sentry to change shifts.

It was almost midnight when the secret sentries were handed over. Xu Wen's eyes flashed and he gave a low order. Everyone left the mountains silently like ghosts and returned to their temporary residence in Qingzhou.

This is an abandoned house. Local people rumored that it was a haunted house, so no one lived here. It was far away from the village, so Xu Wen and others felt particularly safe living here, and it was also convenient for them to act.
