Volume 1 Blood Pact Chapter 17 Poisoning the Quartet

Cheng Xue watched her back disappear into the crowd before she looked back at Ba Fenghan with an inquiring look.

Ba Fenghan took two hats from the stall next to him, and after paying for them, he put one of them on Cheng Xue's head.

He pressed down on the hat he had just put on, and said, "You wait for me here." ”

After saying this, the person had already walked towards the entrance of the street, and the soldier guarding the entrance of the street only glanced at it and did not stop the investigation.

When Ba Fenghan returned to his side, Cheng Xue looked at him with more doubts than surprise.

Ba Fenghan tapped his finger at the token hanging on his waist, "With it, you don't have to worry about being interrogated again." ”

He continued: "The person who has this token has naturally registered with the Chamber of Commerce, and the background has already been clearly investigated, there are so many people on the street, and the soldiers are not willing to interrogate them one by one, since the Chamber of Commerce has done it on their behalf, they can naturally be exempted." ”

As he spoke, the sound of a gong was heard in the distance.

The two looked for sounds, and saw a catcher walking here while playing a gong, "The rumor-mongers have ruined the reputation of the government, behaved badly, and have ill intentions.

Before each execution, the government would send someone to report to the people to set an example.

The two knew in their hearts that the so-called rumor-mongers at the moment had no one but the sailors in the City God Temple.

Ba Fenghan suddenly said: "It's up to you to decide whether to go or not." ”

For those sailors, he didn't have any feelings, but Cheng Xue was different, after all, he was from the same place as them. Although he knew very well in his heart that if he didn't go, it might be the best choice for Cheng Xue's body and mind, once he chose to face the death of those sailors with his own eyes, he didn't know how Cheng Xue would be impacted.

But as a semi-outsider, he has no right to make a choice for Cheng Xue.

After Cheng Xuetian fought, he said, "I'm going." ”

She remembered the scar-faced sailor kneeling on the ground and begging her to bring his ashes back to Nanriku, "I promised the sailor that if he could return to Nanriku, I would bring his ashes back with me." ”

Ba Fenghan nodded and looked at the position of the sun, noon was approaching.

Caishikou was located in the south of the city, and when they arrived, there were heavy soldiers in front of the execution ground, isolating the crowd of onlookers ten paces away.

The two stood on the periphery of the crowd and saw a dozen people kneeling on the high Xing field, and behind each of them stood an executioner with a machete.

Ba Feng said in a deep voice: "There are far more sailors in the City God Temple on the execution ground, and it seems that many survivors have been arrested under the investigation of the government in recent days. ”

Cheng Xue was silent, she looked at the sailors on the execution ground, and suddenly felt a sense of sympathy.

She saw the scar-faced sailor, who, unlike the other frightened companions, had his gaze wandering through the crowd as if hoping for something, and his face had an anxious look on his face.

When his gaze swept to the crowd behind him, he found Cheng Xue, and suddenly grinned with relief.

"It's noon, and the execution begins!"

With the order of the executor, the heads of the execution ground rolled, and it was easy to escape from the shipwreck, and the sailors who hoped to return to their homeland remained in a foreign land forever.

At the moment of execution, Cheng Xue closed her eyes and couldn't bear to look at it, and two lines of tears flowed on her face full of pain.

"Do you still want to come here?" a woman's voice sounded behind the two.

Ba Fenghan looked back and saw the woman named Qingluan, frowned, and said, "What do you mean?"

Qingluan glanced at Cheng Xue with a strange look in his eyes, and handed a yellow paper notice to Bai Fenghan.

It has portraits of the two of them and a large reward for the arrest of important criminals.

Ba Fenghan wondered: "Where did this notice come from, we didn't see it along the way. ”

"It's being posted here and there, and I'm just taking one of them off. Qingluan continued: "Can anyone give me an explanation?"

At this time, Ba Fenghan's face gradually became solemn.

Although the armor warriors who saw their faces had been killed, he ignored the people at the inn, and it seemed that the government had already painted their portraits through interrogation.

He tore up the notice and looked at Qingluan, "If I say that the government wants to add a crime, will you believe it?"

Qingluan replied to the question: "The reward of 20,000 high-grade spirit stones, even I am a little moved." ”

Although through the black veil, Ba Fenghan couldn't see her expression at the moment, but he didn't feel a trace of murder from her, and couldn't help frowning: "Do your duty, don't say much about irrelevant." ”

"Believe it or not, at this moment, I just need to point out you, and without even the government's action, someone will jump out and kill you two soon?" Qingluan was a little angry at his unceremonious words.

"You wouldn't do that. After Ba Fenghan finished speaking, he ignored her, looked at Cheng Xue and said softly, "It's time to go." ”

"I'm sorry," Cheng Xue burst into tears, and the words of the man in front of her and Qingluan made her even more sad, "It's me who has caused you." ”

"No one wants to see the current situation, but the matter has come to this, so let's get out of here first. Bai Fenghan gently patted Cheng Xue's shoulder.

"As an important criminal of the imperial court, where else can you go?!" suddenly a loud shout came from behind him.

Ba Fenghan turned around suddenly, only to see Zhao Zetao and Li Xiuwen walking side by side.

The two stopped a few meters away.

Zhao Zetao pointed at Ba Fenghan and shouted: "Ba Fenghan, you dare to kill officers and soldiers, abscond in fear of crime, and capture without restraint!"

As his words fell, the people around him looked here, and the officers and soldiers who had not left the scene after the execution had also begun to gather here in an organized manner.

Ba Fenghan protected Cheng Xue behind him, and his eyes focused on Zhao Zetao on the opposite side.

Suddenly, there were strong spiritual power fluctuations around Zhao Zetao, and three souls appeared behind him in turn, namely the green snake, the white wolf, and the wild bull, corresponding to the three elemental attributes of poison, ice, and gold.

"Ba Fenghan, once the three elders all took you as an example for their juniors, which overshadowed the two of us by your side, and today let the so-called genius in their eyes become the soul of my subordinates!"

The phantom of the green snake entrenched in the air seemed to be alive, and the snake's head was raised high, opening its bloody mouth in the direction of Ba Fenghan.

Zhao Zetao shouted violently: "Poison the Quartet!"

Dozens of dark green small snakes with changing spiritual power condensed in front of him, and with that loud shout, they suddenly rushed towards Bai Fenghan like sharp arrows.
