Chapter 48: The Murderer
Chapter 48: The Murderer
"What?!" Baozi's words once again stunned Feng Li, and said in disbelief: "Jing Zhengtai would do this kind of thing? I don't believe it either! ”
Baozi sighed and said gloomily: "I don't want to believe it either, but it's the truth!" This guy almost shot Uncle Cheng, but fortunately I shot him in the arm...... We are friends who have played since childhood, and I didn't shoot an arrow at his head because of our relationship since childhood, and the next time I meet him, I will not be soft! As he spoke, Baozi clenched his fists, and a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.
Beaver was once again speechless, shocked by the amount of events that had happened since he left the tribe.
"Alas!" Cheng Xu let out a long sigh, and said with a heartache like hatred of iron and steel: "I can't believe that Xiao Tai would do such a thing, it really hurts me!" I didn't expect that this white-eyed wolf had been lurking by my side for so long, and he really didn't even want family affection for the sake of power! I don't know if he was laid down by that vixen or something. medicine, even I have to kill ......"
Under Cheng Xu's explanation, we realized that the murderer who was caught killing the leader was a woman, and Jing Zhengtai hooked up with the murderer for some reason, wanting to save her, but he didn't want to be discovered by Cheng Xu, Jing Zhengtai himself was a team leader of the tribe, and when the matter was revealed, he proposed that Cheng Xu was not suitable for the position of leader, and rebelled with his subordinates, so he had a conflict with Baozi and they were killed by Baozi.
I sighed in my heart, as long as there are people where there is a struggle for power and profit, as soon as the leader of the beaver tribe dies, there will naturally be people who are blushing at the position of the leader, it turns out that the traps along the way are set up to prevent the counterattack of the traitor Jing Zhengtai, but it almost made us suffer.
"That's it! Brother Zhang is a distinguished guest, don't let people see our jokes! Cheng Xu breathed a long sigh of relief, stood up and said: "It's noon, it's time to send that murderer on the road, kill this fox spirit, Xiaotai will die, otherwise the night will be long and dreamy......"
Under the guidance of Cheng Xu, we came to the execution site, and nearly 300 free people in the tribe had already gathered.
The crowd formed a large circle, and a bonfire was lit in the open space in the center, and a cross supported by a log was inserted into the earth, on which a bodiness was tied. The woman, with her long hair draped in front of her face, hung her head down, and did not know whether she was dead or alive. The delicate skin was full of grease and scars, and some places were whipped so that the skin and flesh were exposed, revealing a terrifying pink wound, Xia Kite couldn't bear to look over, not daring to look at it again.
"Brothers and sisters! Be quiet! Cheng Xu walked to the middle of the venue, walked to the bonfire and raised his hand to the surrounding crowd, and suddenly the chaotic crowd quieted down.
"The leader we have always admired was ...... by this woman It was brutally killed by her! The leader has always treated us like children, and the old man did not die in the mouth of a zombie, not in disease and suffering, but in conspiracy......" Cheng Xu pointed to the woman who was tied to the cross, his expression was extremely indignant, and he hissed: "It's her!" conspiracy to kill the leader, even delusional to become the leader of the tribe, brought back the tribe's token! Cheng Xu said and raised a black object in his right hand, which was an iron plaque engraved with the traditional character "Zhang".
The crowd around them suddenly boiled, and some people even threw some dirt and rocks at the woman who was tied to the cross to vent their grief and anger.
"Quiet! Be quiet! Cheng Xu stopped the movement of the crowd, glanced at the murderer beside him proudly, and said loudly: "God is pitiful!" I finally discovered her conspiracy, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable, and our decades-long inheritance would really be usurped by her! It's a pity that Jing Zhengtai, who has been watched by me since he was a child, actually believed this woman's words, and I don't know what was laid down by this fox spirit. Medicine colludes with her in a vain attempt to usurp the position of the leader! Cheng Xu said and sighed deeply, causing the surrounding crowd to sigh, obviously everyone was very disdainful of Jing Zhengtai's betrayal.
"Today we are going to slay the enemy! Avenge the old chief! Cheng Xu ignited people's anger again, and everyone shouted: "Kill her!" Kill her! ”
"Murderer! Are you still not pleading guilty to death?! Cheng Xu stared viciously at the woman tied to the cross, and a subordinate had already handed over a boning knife, obviously he would give this woman a cruel punishment.
"If you confess your sins, I can give you a good time! Otherwise, I'll let each of the tribesmen chop a piece of your flesh alive!" Cheng Xu's words were cruel without a trace of warmth, and Xia Yuan couldn't help but shrink into my arms and frowned.
The noisy crowd fell silent, and everyone looked at the leader's killer with burning eyes to see if she was still unrepentant.
"Ho ho ho ho ......" The female murderer with her head lowered laughed weakly, raised her head suddenly, and shouted: "There is no guilt, how can you talk about confessing guilt?!" After saying that, he stared at Cheng Xu with vicious eyes, as if he could tear him apart with his eyes.
After the woman's words, the crowd boiled again, like a lit explosive bag, and people raised their fists uncontrollably and shouted: "Kill her!" Kill her! ”
Seeing the woman's blood-covered face clearly, my heart was shocked, this woman was none other than Mo Yue's personal guard captain, the second-level white-armored female soldier who followed me out of Eagle City - Xia Xia!
Looking at the face that was determined to die, my heart was in turmoil, since I devoured the green brain core for the first time that night and was attacked by the ghost-faced black-clothed man, that is, the left protector of the Blood Lan Sect, Wen Zhengbiao and several female soldiers left behind and Zhang Damin were all attacked by the right protector, Wen Zhengbiao was captured by the right protector, and only one woman escaped by luck, so the female soldier who escaped was Xia Xia in front of him!
My brain cells are obviously not enough, why was Xia Xia captured by these free people, and was accused of murdering the tribal leader? Tribe? Chieftain? Grandpa Zhang?
I jerked my head back at the beaver and asked in a deep voice, "Beaver!" Is the leader of your tribe named Zhang Damin? ”
The beaver was stared at by me uncomfortably, and replied a little inexplicably: "Yes! Our tribe is the Zhang tribe, and Grandpa Zhang's name is Zhang Damin......"
"Damn! Why didn't you tell me earlier! ”
was reprimanded by me inexplicably, and the beaver said aggrievedly: "You didn't ask me......"
After getting the confirmation of the beaver, I couldn't help but feel annoyed, no one thought that the beaver and Zhang Damin were the same tribe, and the Xiaoxue they were talking about was not Zhang Xue who was sold as a slave in Eagle City? Only then did I remember that Zhang Damin had told me that he was the leader of a tribe of more than 300 people, and it was only at this time that I couldn't help but slap myself, and everyone looked at me in amazement.
I'm in a state of confusion at the moment, since the leader they are talking about is Zhang Damin, then Xia Xia will definitely not be a murderer who plots to kill the leader and fantasizes about seizing power! Just kidding, the murderer is the right protector wearing a beast mask, Zhang Damin and other white-armored female soldiers were killed, Xia Xia is just the one who escaped by luck!
It has to be so, it has to be so! I figured it out, it must have been Zhang Damin who handed over the token symbolizing the power of the tribal leader to Xia Xia when he was in danger, and asked her to spread the word to the tribe, Xia Xia fled all the way here but was regarded by Cheng Xu as the murderer of Zhang Damin!
Seeing Cheng Xu walking towards Xia Xia with a boning knife, I couldn't help but shout: "Stop!" ”
After the physical strengthening, no matter the physical fitness has been greatly improved, this burst of shouting suddenly covered the shouting crowd, everyone looked at me in surprise, watching me walk step by step into the field.
"Uncle Cheng! I know this woman! Watching me walk over step by step, Cheng Xu showed a suspicious expression, and I said slowly: "She...... Not the murderer of Grandpa Zhang! ”
Zhang ...... Brother Zhang?! Seeing me approaching, Xia Xia exclaimed, with an unbelievable look in her eyes.
"Brother! What do you mean by that? I can't let the murderer get away with it just because you know this woman, she killed our old chief, that's a fact! Cheng Xu looked at me, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, but he still expressed his opinion in a very strong tone.
The beaver also followed, and asked me suspiciously, "Boss, what are you doing here?" ”
I glanced at Cheng Xu and said to Xia Xia, "Don't worry! With me, no one will touch you! Xia Xia nodded excitedly in ecstasy, and tears instantly burst out of her eyes.
"Beaver, do you remember what I asked you about Wen Zhengbiao?" I didn't answer the rhetorical question, looked at the beaver, looked at him and nodded and continued: "On the day of the accident, Xia Xia was with the Wen Zhengbiao I said!" And before, your old leader, that is, Zhang Damin, we were together before! "Saying that, I couldn't help but feel a little ashamed in my heart, if I hadn't gone out alone that day to devour the green brain core, Wen Zhengbiao and Zhang Damin would not have been attacked by the Right Protector so easily. But on the other hand, the unfathomable strength of the two Dharma protectors on the left and right, even if I am just a cannon fodder role!
"Wow!" My words were like a bombshell, and everyone immediately exclaimed.
Cheng Xu looked at me with a complicated expression and retorted: "Since you weren't there on the day of the accident, you can't prove anything!" ”
"Then how can you prove that Xia Xia is a murderer? Show up your proof! "I stared at Cheng Xu and approached step by step, this guy so arbitrarily decided Xia Xia's death crime, if I hadn't appeared in time by coincidence, Xia Xia would have to bear the charge of killing Zhang Damin until he died! Thinking of this, I couldn't help but look at Cheng Xu's eyes with a hint of anger.
"This ...... She has the old chief's token on her, can't this be considered evidence? Cheng Xu was forced by me to be anxious, a little incoherent, and said stubbornly: "And she also said that the old leader passed on the position of leader to her, how is this possible?" She's clearly talking nonsense! ”
"You're talking nonsense! Grandpa Zhang handed me the token and asked me to pass on the message to you, no matter whether Zhang Yang found the three red brain nuclei or not, he would pass on the position of leader to Zhang Yang......" Slandered by Cheng Xu, Xia Xia was extremely sad and indignant: "I kindly summoned you for interrogation, you actually charged me with murder and wanted to bend to ......"
"Hahaha! Did you hear it, did you hear it? Cheng Xu pointed at me with a look of disbelief, and retorted: "The old leader will let him take over the position of leader?" Did this woman burn out her brain? When she comes out to help her talk, she is full of nonsense, no wonder Jing Zhengtai will be confused by you, you sharp-toothed stinky! While speaking, Cheng Xu took advantage of my inattention and gradually approached Xia Xia, and before he finished speaking, the boning knife in his hand stabbed Xia Xia's chest.
