Everyone’s eyes were fixed on the human corpse hanging flayed on the rack.
Fresh blood dripped from the corpse’s toes, pooling on the ground into a small puddle of blood, indicating that he was slaughtered less than three hours ago as there were no signs of it drying out.
The group imdiately began looking around, searching for the shadow of the butcher.
Baa!
A sudden bleat of a sheep ca from the front right.
The group turned their heads and saw, about twenty ters away, a shed covered with a straw-roofed shelter, blocked by a wooden door, preventing any view inside.
Xia Hongyao imdiately ran over and pushed the door open.
Baa!
With the bleating sound, the stench of sheep manure hit them right in the face.
"It’s a sheepfold!"
Xia Hongyao quickly counted: "There are about sixty or seventy sheep!"
The sheepfold covered an area about half the size of a football field. When the sheep saw the door open, they didn’t co forward. Instead, they all started bleating loudly and ran away.
Clearly, they had been frightened, knowing that once the door opens, one of them would be dragged away to be skinned.
The group ca over to observe these sheep.
"That old man with the sheepskin once said, the sheepfold is the safest place in the world, it should be this!"
Holkina pinched her nose and ordered the cannon fodder: "Go inside and search to see if there’s any clue worth noting!"
The crowd hesitated, reluctant to move.
"God Lin!"
Holkina complained: "You are the Nine Provinces Dragon Wing, I shouldn’t have to tell you what the optimal solution is!"
The undertone of the blonde beauty was that without her suggestion, Lin Baici should have already sent these cannon fodder to search the sheepfold.
"Do you think these people can find any clues?"
Lin Baici retorted.
"It’s better than doing nothing!"
Holkina countered.
"Then you go yourself!"
Lin Baici snapped back, not protecting these people, but thinking it inappropriate to enter the sheepfold now, also worried that if too many people went in, the clues might get ssed up.
"..."
Holkina’s face turned ugly, wanting to curse back, but seeing San Miyairi obviously standing by Lin Baici, she held back.
No choice, couldn’t win the fight!
Lin Longyi and Xia Hongyao were well-known, already determined to be hard to deal with, not to ntion an unpredictable crazy woman.
"It has to be Brother Lin!"
Wang Shou gave a thumbs up, complinting softly.
Visiting Lin Baici that day and giving him face was a stroke of genius, to think without that dinner, there would have been no chance to get closer to him.
The group, seeing Holkina being berated by Lin Baici, no longer insisted on going into the sheepfold, all breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let’s go!"
Lin Baici led the way, leaving the threshing floor and heading out of the town: "Everyone, be careful."
As soon as the group left the threshing floor, a walnut-sized stone suddenly shot out from the grass, bullet-like, hitting a boss at the back of the team on the head with a bang.
Bam!
The boss fell silent, instantly dead, collapsing onto the ground with a thud.
Blood and brain matter seeped from the hole in his skull.
"Soone’s dead!"
The female secretary scread.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Amidst the sound of breaking wind, a swarm of stone projectiles fired from all directions, numbering over a hundred.
The crowd imdiately covered their heads with their hands, crouching low.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
These stone projectiles were extrely accurate with great force, hitting the body would leave a bruise, a hit to the head ant instant death.
"From the number of stone shots, there are many enemies, we either break through or retreat to the town, can’t stay here long."
Lu Changming covered his head, shouting to Lin Baici.
This internet tycoon wouldn’t miss any chance to show off, as this was the only way to beco Lin Baici’s ally and have him lend a hand.
Swish!
The second wave of stone projectiles arrived.
Muscle Buddha appeared, shielding Lin Baici.
Seeing this, everyone crowded over.
"Go back!"
Gu Qingqiu said, turning to run toward the town.
Otherwise, after a few more rounds of attacks, the cannon fodder would be wiped out.
"Hurry, follow!"
San Miyairi urged.
Everyone turned to Lin Baici, waiting for him to decide.
"Go back!"
Lin Baici swung his sword, using the blade’s back to hit the flying stone projectiles.
Bam, bam, bam!
Stone projectiles were knocked away.
The group retreated to the threshing floor, but it was of no use.
Outside the town was an endless stretch of knee-high mugwort, among which skinned goat-headed folk erged, wielding slings, throwing stone projectiles at these prey.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The stone projectiles flew fast, and though the weapon seed crude, a hit to the head could still cause fatal injuries.
These goat-headed folk had the bodies of humans, tall, strong, muscles knotted, but with a goat head, curved horns on their heads, and triangular eyes filled with ferocity.
"They’re coming after us!"
The female secretary limped along, sweating profusely with anxiety.
So of the rushing goat-headed folk, at a distance of over thirty ters from their prey, took off a lasso from their belt, like cowboys, spun it a few tis, and threw it out.
Whoosh!
Wang Shou, too fat and running slowly, got lassoed.
"Brother Lin!"
Thud!
Wang Shou was yanked to the ground, and the female secretary didn’t escape either.
Lin Baici teleported beside Wang Shou, cutting the lasso from his neck.
"It’s over!"
Dragged away by the goat-headed folk, the female secretary was in despair, wondering why save that middle-aged man first, not herself?
With such beauty, are you blind?
The female secretary, who had benefited from her looks many tis, was thwarted for the first ti.
Lin Baici flicked his hand!
Swish!
The bronze sword flew out, cutting the lasso binding the female secretary.
