Chapter 236: A Deathly Face! Ominous Signs! The Mysteriously Slaughtered Caravan!
Meng Hai shouted loudly, “Everyone, quiet!”
Then he turned to Gao Zhenbang and said in a deep voice, “Mr. Gao, lead the way up front. Let’s go take a look!”
Gao Zhenbang still felt shaken and a bit hesitant, but he nodded in the end.
A group of people followed Gao Zhenbang and rushed over.
To their surprise, the spot where the Que Mu caravan was slaughtered was actually very close to them, only about thirty zhang away.
There was just a small dirt mound between them, and they had been at the bottom of it, while the Que Mu caravan was right on top. This realization made everyone’s hearts sink instantly.
Although the desert was filled with wind and sand, there was no reason for so many people to die so close by without them hearing a single sound!?
“Could it have been the work of a demon?” That thought sprang up in the minds of the caravan members and could not be suppressed.
Li Yanchu hurried up to the top of the mound and was shocked as well. The dead lay in utterly gruesome states, each with an expression of extreme terror frozen on their faces.
Their chests had been ripped open, and their internal organs completely removed. Many had died while trying to flee, only to be caught and brutally killed.
About thirty people lay dead here; the horrific sight was like a scene from hell itself. Especially the ones with their mouths wide open and arms outstretched for help, just seeing it made one’s scalp crawl.
It was easy to imagine what kind of unspeakable horror they must have encountered the night before.
