The guards outside played a coordinating role, but now that the situation inside was completely under control, they naturally no longer had the need to co-ordinate.
It was almost dark, and there were no defensive conditions to rely on in the wild. If there were zombies that escaped the net, it would be extremely dangerous for them to be stationed at the mountain pass.
As the horn sounded, the guards who were waiting outside all stood up nervously.
The horn represents the police situation. Is there something going on inside? Is the prince and his party in danger?
Leading the team, the general flag jumped on his horse and immediately gave the order: "Light a fire and burn the body!"
He had originally kept the body for Zhao Yanxun to dispose of, but now that they were leaving, they couldn't take the body with them, so they naturally burned it quickly.
The fire burst into flames, and all the guards had gone away, leaving only the firewood burning and making a crackling sound.
After riding down the mountain pass and seeing corpses everywhere inside, the leader of the team suddenly felt that he had been too cautious.
There were so many chopped-to-death monsters inside, and the corpses were lying around without cleaning them, but he disposed of the ones at Yamaguchi.
Of course, these are all minor problems. What really shocked them was that there were so many monsters here, and traces of fighting could be seen everywhere.
Human heads could be seen everywhere, headless corpses with their bellies and internal organs slashed and spilled out on the ground. The bloody and brutal scene shocked the hearts of the guards.
"Move quickly!" the leader of the team said solemnly.
The speed can be increased, but for now they still have to determine the direction. After all, there is no means of location sharing in this era.
Fortunately, the horns kept sounding, allowing them to constantly correct their route, and finally made peace with Zhao Yanxun and his party.
At the mountain pass behind them, after confirming that the guards of Prince Yong's Mansion had left, the remaining spies from the Inspector's Office came up.
When they came to the blazing flames, the bodies were already burned to a disgraceful state, and even extinguishing the fire would be of no avail.
The man in a gray short shirt became the new boss. Looking at the increasingly dark sky, he said in a deep voice: "The people from Prince Yong's Mansion must have a big conspiracy here..."
"Wang San Zheng Zhu, you two sneak over and check what's going on. Be careful to hide your whereabouts!"
The two young men who were called upon were the most junior among the group, so this dangerous and laborious task naturally fell on them.
Even if they were reluctant, under the eager gazes of their companions, they could only turn around and go into the village.
Fortunately, it was dark at this time, and there were many places to hide under the vast streets of Zhuangzi.
The two of them hid their whereabouts everywhere, with their hearts in their throats, fearing that they would become the victims of the guards of Prince Yong's Mansion.
At this moment, Wang San accidentally kicked something under his foot, and his body flew out uncontrollably and fell to the ground.
Sitting paralyzed on the ground, Wang San looked back and saw a human head with a fierce expression.
Wang San could only support his body with his hands and retreat, and the next moment he caught a puddle of slippery stuff.
He turned his head and took a closer look at what he was grabbing, only to find that what he was grabbing was intestines, liver, and belly, and there was a headless corpse underneath.
"Ahhh" screamed, Wang Sanma stood up, and then took a dozen steps back.
Although Zheng Zhu on the side was not so embarrassed, he was still frightened by the situation on the ground. He secretly thought that the guards of Prince Yong's Palace were cruel.
Seeing the frightened Wang San, who was holding on to the big tree and breathing heavily, Zheng Zhu hurried over.
"Don't say anything, if we are discovered... we will both die!" Zheng Zhu scolded in a low voice.
Wang San then silenced himself and stayed there for a few minutes. After the fear gradually dissipated, the two of them endured the fear and continued to move forward.
But the further they went, the more corpses they encountered, and the death conditions were extremely miserable. Every corpse was decapitated.
After walking a few hundred steps forward, they saw the scene in Zhuangzi that made Zheng and Zhu both tremble with fear.
"Zhuzi, the situation is now very clear. Prince Yong's Mansion has slaughtered all Zhuangzi!"
"We can't go any further. If we are discovered by the guards of Prince Yong's Mansion, we both will die!"
After listening to Wang San's advice, Zheng Zhu stopped. At this moment, they were indeed very deep.
"Our fate is our own, retreat!" Zheng Zhu said decisively.
The two of them immediately retreated. Fortunately, Zhao Yanxun eliminated all the zombies outside, otherwise they would not have been able to return alive.
The two of them retreated to the mountain pass tremblingly, and then told them what they had seen.
After hearing this, the man in gray frowned. Prince Yong's Mansion had killed all the people in Zhuangzi. He really couldn't figure out its purpose.
"What are the people in Prince Yong's Mansion doing now?" asked the man in gray.
Zheng Zhu quickly replied: "The guards of Prince Yong's Mansion are heavily guarded. We dare not get close, so we can't see clearly!"
Looking at the sullen expression of the man in gray, Zheng Zhu didn't regret it at all at the moment. At worst, he wouldn't want his job today.
If you ask him to get close enough to take a look, you are making a joke with his life. Even if the King of Heaven comes, he will not go.
But in the end, the man in gray didn't say much. He could understand this human nature.
"Go back to Yuanyang and report the situation to the Yamen!" The man in gray turned around and said.
No matter what the purpose of Prince Yong's Mansion is, as long as he sends the news back, it will be the big bosses in the Yamen who have to worry about it.
He is a humble citizen, and no matter how much he hates the actions of Prince Yong's Mansion, he can't do anything to them.
They left, and the mountain pass completely returned to calm, except for the fire that continued to burn.
Besides, in Zhuangzi, when the two teams from the palace met, everyone was busy.
They had to find a few large trucks and load all the captured zombies into them before they could take them back to the capital tomorrow.
Zhuangzi usually transports grain, so the cart is easily found, and then the zombies are loaded onto the cart one by one.
There were two cars in total, and each car contained five corpses, all of which were tightly tied to the car.
After doing this, it was completely dark.
The evening breeze brought a chill, and frogs croaked in the fields, as if this was still the carefree village.
But the constant roars of the zombies in the yard directly dispelled everyone's illusions. This place was already a hell on earth.
This afternoon, everyone was on high-intensity alert. Considering that there was still work to do tomorrow, Zhao Yanxun asked his men to rest early.
In the evening, they ate dry food. Zhao Yanxun did nothing special for himself and ate steamed buns with the guards.
After arranging people to keep watch in shifts, they moved into the house and sealed all the doors from the inside to ensure it was safe to sleep at night.
Just like this, amidst the wailing sounds in the courtyard, Prince Yong's family and his entourage fell into sleep.
The bright moon hangs high, some people are sleeping peacefully, while others are traveling all night.
Starting from Zhuangzi, we drove all the way back to Yuanyang Fucheng. The spies sent by the Inspector's Yamen were all so exhausted that they could only breathe.
Fucheng closed its city gates at night, and when they arrived at the north gate of Yuanyang, they could not enter the city for a while.
"We are the ones who oversee the Yamen. If we have something urgent to come to the city, please open the door!"
After reciting these words three times, someone on the city wall replied: "People who are in charge of the Yamen? Show me your official seal or waist badge!"
After saying this, a small basket fell from the city wall, apparently asking them to put items proving their identity into it.
But these non-staff members, who don't have badges and official seals, can only languish outside the city gate at the moment.
"Forget it, the case has already happened anyway, and everyone in Zhuangzi has been killed, so there is no rush to report it now... We will talk about it tomorrow!" The man in gray said solemnly.
Of course, the main reason was that after the city gate was closed, they had no other choice but to succumb to reality.
