Real Cthulhu Running Game

"Damn it, Shen Dazhuang has already left the blacksmith village!" Rodriguez cursed in a low voice.

According to the city gate guard, Shen Dazhuang left the blacksmith village alone ten minutes ago, and he seemed to be in a hurry.

It seems that Shen Dazhuang was the one who poisoned Shen Kuanglong and others.

However, Liu Xing always felt something was wrong.

"Mr. Rodriguez, where are the caves where the goblins are?" Zhang Jingxu suddenly asked.

Rodriguez was stunned for a moment, then pointed in the direction outside the city gate and said: "In the direction in front of us, the distance should be about ten kilometers."

Zhang Jingxu nodded and said: "It seems that our guess is correct. Shen Dazhuang is most likely the leader behind those goblins. Now that he has murdered Shen Kuanglong and others, he can only seek help from those brothers." Bryn’s asylum.”

Rodriguez sighed, and then said viciously: "Don't worry, Lord Brave, I will arrange for my men to attack those goblins and bring Shen Dazhuang to justice. After all, Shen Kuanglong is also a blacksmith. The head of the village.”

After Rodriguez finished speaking, he ordered his men to gather the troops and try to start the war before the goblins were ready.

As for Liu Xing and others, they returned to the Shen family mansion to join Yin En and others, and then participated in this crusade together.

On the way, Liu Xing couldn't help but said: "Don't you think this incident is a bit strange? Logically speaking, there is no need for Shen Dazhuang to do this, right?"

In Liu Xing's view, if Shen Dazhuang really did all this, then there may be something wrong with Shen Dazhuang's brain, because there is absolutely no need for him to do this, because in addition to exposing his identity, doing so would be a big mistake for him. No benefit at all.

Zhang Jingxu on the side nodded and said seriously: "I thought so too. At first, I thought Shen Dazhuang did this to frame us and make Rodriguez think that we poisoned Shen Kuanglong and others. But when I thought about it carefully, I realized that something was wrong with the situation, because the method of poisoning was too crude. As long as we investigated carefully, we could find the flaws. Besides, we had no need or reason to poison Shen Kuanglong and the others. The most important thing was What's strange is that Shen Dazhuang actually ran away like this. Didn't he tell others that he had a problem?"

Liu Xing thought so too.

"So, do you think the real poisoner is Shen Aotian?" Ding Kun frowned and said: "Judging from the current situation, if Shen Dazhuang hadn't poisoned Shen Kuanglong and others, then the only one who might have poisoned him The person is Shen Aotian, and Shen Aotian has reason to do this, because as long as Shen Aotian pins the poisoning case on Shen Dazhuang, then Shen Aotian can legitimately become the head of the Shen family, and succeed Shen Dazhuang in controlling a blacksmith shop... But Shen Aotian did this. It’s too cruel.”

At this moment, Liu Xing and others saw Shen Aotian, Yin En and others standing at the door.

Liu Xing and the other three exchanged glances with each other.

Although Liu Xing and the others now think that Shen Aotian is more likely to poison than Shen Dazhuang, Liu Xing and the others have no evidence at all, so Liu Xing and the others can only keep these conjectures in their minds.

"Sir Zhang Jingxu, have you found my elder brother?" Shen Aotian asked anxiously.

Zhang Jingxu shook his head and said: "When we arrived at the blacksmith shop, we found that Shen Dazhuang had left. Then we got news from the city gate guard that Shen Dazhuang had just left the blacksmith village alone, and that he had left The city gate is facing the cave where the goblins are, so we now have reason to suspect that yesterday's theft case and today's poisoning case were both committed by Shen Dazhuang, and Mr. Rodriguez has already begun to recruit people to attack those goblins. , and then arrest Shen Dazhuang!"

Yin En and others showed expressions of "Sure enough."

After a moment of silence, Shen Aotian said, "Sir Zhang Jingxu, are you going to arrest my eldest brother now too?"

Zhang Jingxu nodded and said affirmatively: "Of course, Mr. Rodriguez has invited our brave team to participate in this operation, not to mention that we ourselves have sufficient reasons to participate in this operation. After all, our materials have been collected by Shen Dazhuang and The goblins stole it."

Shen Aotian sighed and continued to ask: "Then I will go and get ready now. After all, I am also a member of the brave team."

Liu Xing hesitated to speak, because it was Zhang Jingxu who should make the decision this time.

After Zhang Jingxu thought for a moment, he said seriously: "Shen Aotian, I personally advise you not to participate in this operation, because although you are a member of our brave team, you are not in the battle order of our brave team. , and the person we have to deal with this time is always your eldest brother, so I think you are not mentally prepared to kill your relatives for justice."

Shen Aotian's face showed a look of struggle.

Zhang Jingxu took this opportunity to wink at Yin En and others, and Yin En and others stood beside Zhang Jingxu understandingly.

Just when Zhang Jingxu was about to leave with Liu Xing and others, Shen Aotian suddenly said: "Sir Zhang Jingxu, I think I am mentally prepared to kill my relatives out of justice, because when Shen Dazhuang poisoned my parents, he no longer deserved to be killed. He has become my eldest brother, not to mention that my second brother was also murdered by Shen Dazhuang back then, so now I have to kill Shen Dazhuang, a beast that is not a son of man!"

Now that Shen Aotian has said so, Zhang Jingxu has no reason to refuse Shen Aotian's request to accompany the team.

So, Shen Aotian went back to the Shen family mansion to get his weapons.

While Shen Aotian went back to get his things, Liu Xing whispered to Yin En: "Yin En, has anything happened to Shen Aotian during the time we left?"

Yin En raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "I know you are thinking the same thing as me, and you also think there is something wrong with this Shen Aotian, because he is much more suspected of poisoning than Shen Dazhuang, especially after Zhang Jingxu just said that Shen Dazhuang has already When I left the Blacksmith Village, I was even more sure that something was wrong with Shen Aotian. As for Shen Aotian's unusual behavior, I really didn't find anything unusual. However, it was precisely because there was nothing unusual about Shen Aotian that I began to doubt Shen Aotian. After all, even we would be at a loss for such a serious unexpected incident, but Shen Aotian behaved calmer than us as if nothing was wrong. Just after Liu Xing and you left, Shen Aotian was in charge of hosting Big picture.”

"After you left, Shen Aotian took us to look for other people in the Shen family's mansion. As a result, we quickly found those people in the kitchen, back garden, servants' quarters and other places. According to the confessions provided by those people, The second housekeeper of the Shen family mansion asked them to avoid it temporarily. The reason is exactly the same as what we thought - because Shen Kuanglong and the others want to invite us members of the brave team, so the idlers are not allowed to appear near the living room; as for this Shen family mansion The second housekeeper has been a servant of the Shen family from a long time ago, so his reputation in the Shen family mansion is very high, so those Shen family members and servants who received orders obeyed the orders honestly."

"Then we began to search for the whereabouts of the second housekeeper, and soon found the body of the second housekeeper in an abandoned courtyard of the Shen family mansion. It seemed that he had been killed from behind with a wooden stick or other blunt instrument elsewhere. He was hit hard on the back of the head with a weapon, causing intracranial hemorrhage. He eventually died and was dumped in the abandoned hospital. So we went back and asked many people. It turned out that those people didn't know who the second housekeeper was passing the order for; but I went there specifically. After inquiring about the second housekeeper, I found that the second housekeeper has always been at odds with the first housekeeper, and the first housekeeper is a staunch supporter of Shen Dazhuang and has always been slightly dissatisfied with Shen Aotian becoming the next head of the Shen family."

Hearing this, Liu Xing showed a knowing smile, "It seems like this second housekeeper should be on Shen Aotian's side, because as long as Shen Aotian can successfully take over one day, then he can replace the position of the chief housekeeper, so Shen Aotian has every opportunity to instruct the second housekeeper to fake the order, and then take the second housekeeper to a secluded place to silence him."

"I think so too, and I also heard something from a servant, that is, Shen Dazhuang may have sent someone to assassinate Shen Aotian. At that time, Shen Aotian had just been appointed as the next head of the Shen family. Shen Dazhuang was in various positions. People were very angry about this on every occasion. Then one day, a blacksmith shop received a big order and needed to send a batch of goods to the capital as soon as possible. However, because Shen Dazhuang was escorting another batch of goods to another city at the time, So Shen Kuanglong asked Shen Aotian to escort the goods, but the caravan was attacked by a group of bandits halfway, but the target of this group of bandits was not the goods, but Shen Aotian himself! "

"Because the bandits attacked suddenly, Shen Aotian was accidentally kidnapped by the bandits. Naturally, the escort team could not let the bandits kidnap their young master, so the escort team immediately began to pursue them. After some After the chase, the bandits found that they could not escape with Shen Aotian, so they simply pushed Shen Aotian down the cliff. The cliff was about ten meters high, so when the escort team found Shen Aotian under the cliff, Shen Aotian was already seriously injured. , was unconscious and did not wake up until half a month later." Yin En said.

Liu Xing frowned, stared at Shen Aotian who came out of the door and said: "In that case, there is a reason for Shen Aotian to become a black man, but in order to deal with Shen Dazhuang, there is no need for him to drag his parents into the water, right?"

"Then I don't know." Yin En said with a shrug.

At this time, Shen Aotian, who came out, had changed into leather armor and held a short knife in his hand.

It seems that Shen Aotian also knows very well that short weapons are better to use when fighting goblins in caves.

Now that Shen Aotian is ready, Liu Xing and others officially set off to join Rodriguez.

At this time, Rodrides had summoned more than 30 fully armed guards to gather in front of the city gate, and the surrounding passers-by were talking about it.

"Zhang Jingxu, you are better at dealing with monsters like goblins, so how about you take charge of the battle later?" Rodriguez said half-truthfully.

Of course Zhang Jingxu knew that Rodriguez was not willing to delegate power, so he shook his head and said: "No, no, you should still be in charge of the battle, Mr. Rodriguez, because if Shen Dazhuang is found, I will have to bring him with me." My team has launched an assault, and Mr. Rodriguez will have to be our rearguard when the time comes."

Industry specializing in surgery.

Rodriguez knew that his men could do positional warfare with the Goblins who far outnumbered him, but it would be very difficult to break through the encirclement because their personal abilities were not outstanding.

Without further ado, Rodriguez immediately gave the order to set off.

The distance of ten kilometers was neither too far nor too close, and because they had to maintain their formation to prevent goblins from attacking, it took Liu Xing and others an hour to reach the vicinity of the goblin cave.

Then, Liu Xing and others saw a small goblin village, which looked like a human village in miniature.

However, no trace of goblins was found in this small village.

"It seems that those goblins already know that we are coming to trouble them, so they have fled back to the cave." Rodriguez pointed to the cave aside and said, "The entrance to the cave looks pretty good. It’s big, but it can only accommodate two people walking at a distance of more than 20 meters.”

Just as Rodriguez said, the entrance to the cave seemed to be able to accommodate five or six people passing side by side.

"Mr. Rodriguez, can we use smoke to force those goblins to escape?" Liu Xing said suddenly.

Rodriguez was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said: "Although many of the passages in this cave are very narrow, the total area of ​​this cave is still quite large, otherwise it would not be able to accommodate so many Goblins living in it, and those Goblins In order to maintain the air circulation inside the cave, Lin has already built a lot of exhaust holes in the cave, so the smoke method may not be effective."

Liu Xing nodded, sighed and said, "In that case, we can only choose to attack by force?"

But at this moment, a scout who was responsible for looking out at a high place suddenly ran down and said: "Sir Rodriguez, those group of goblins are running towards the east!"

Ran? !

Liu Xing and others looked at the scout in surprise.

"Could this be a ploy to lure the tiger away from the mountain?" Rodriguez frowned and said, "How many goblins did you see?"

The scout said with certainty: "There are at least more than five hundred, and those goblins are carrying large and small bags. It seems that they want to give up this cave completely!"
