The stick struck again and again, Ruoshui only reacted at this time, she didn't seem to have any position to step forward to stop it, she could only watch Xiaobai being beaten to the ground, but she always insisted on not falling.

Seeing that it was about to reach twenty, blood was already flowing from the corners of Xiaobai's mouth, and he didn't know whether he was beaten to an internal injury and vomited blood, or he bit his lip only after refusing to cry out in pain.

Suddenly, I only heard a crisp sound of "pop", and the wrist-thick shovel handle was broken from it!

With that crisp sound, Xiaobai finally couldn't stand still, staggered and knelt on one knee, vomited two mouthfuls of blood in a row, supported his hands on the ground, and gasped for breath in his mouth, and sweat on his forehead was like rain, dripping into the yellow sand directly below him, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

"Okay, okay, the sticks are broken, and there are no tools to torture anyway, so you don't have to beat the remaining two hits, so be it~"

Ruoshui finally seized an opportunity to interject, and jumped out in a hurry, squeezed into the gap between Xiaobai and Lu Li, casually fooled Lu Li, and when she bent down to help Xiaobai up, she hesitated again.

She still remembered the look in Xiaobai's eyes when she was stuck in her neck, and she clearly wanted to strangle her directly. At this time, she was not afraid that Xiaobai would dare to poison her in front of everyone, but she felt that she was really at a loss, and she was a little embarrassed to touch him.

Xiaobai seemed to realize her gaze and raised his head. He was staring at her, but he hurriedly looked away from his gaze and stood up from the ground with his head down. He said with his hands clenched into fists and bowed his head.

"The subordinates are unstable in their punishment, and they are willing to accept the punishment."

If the water hears it, this posture is clearly going to be endless! hurriedly turned her head and was about to say something to Lu Li, but she didn't expect a hand to suddenly reach out from her side, pulling her out of between the two.

"Huh? What are you doing? Xiaobai can't be beaten anymore......"

She was pulled by a man with an extremely ordinary appearance and figure, but such a person who had no outstanding characteristics in all aspects exuded a calm temperament. This made Ruoshui not push him aside in the first place when he was pulled over.

"Rest assured, adults know what to expect. Everyone still has a task to do, and if you make a mistake, you can be punished slightly, and you will not be unforgiving. ”

"Is that so?"

If Shui Jiang is skeptical, she thinks that a brainless person like Lu Li can know how to be flexible. But fortunately, this person's words were immediately verified. It's just that this verifies......

"The task is here, this punishment will be carried out here first, and then there will be nineteen military sticks, which will be made up after the resumption of life."

How can this be made up for in time? Is this a dead eye in disguise~ Anyway, it's almost the same...... No! Wait a minute! Nineteen military sticks? What do you mean by having nineteen military sticks? Didn't you just say that you were going to hit twenty? Even if you don't have twenty before, you have to have seventeen or eighteen, why did you only subtract one?

Thinking that something was wrong, Ruoshui immediately put on a posture of wanting to rush up and reason with Lu Li, but was once again stopped by the man beside him.

"Is that Lu Li a brain? I had so many hits just now, why are there so many left? ”

The man seemed to have expected Ruoshui to ask this. He replied without thinking about it.

"The so-called twenty sticks are not twenty hits. Instead, break twenty military sticks. ”

"What? Break twenty !! ”

Ruoshui screamed directly, causing everyone around her to look at her, but she still didn't realize it, pointing to the stick on the ground that was broken in two, and stammered again and again.

"Is it just such a thick stick? It's as thick as your wrist? Are you sure it's an interruption? ”

The man didn't expect Ruoshui's reaction to be so big, so he could only reply with a wry smile.

"I'm sure, sure...... Miss Xiao, calm down first, Xiao Hei...... It's still over there, and we can't let him lie there all the time. ”

I have to say that using Xiao Hei to divert attention is indeed a very useful method, and everyone immediately turned their attention to Xiao Hei's direction.

Xiaobai didn't know when it had already passed, he knelt there, with his back to everyone, although there was no blood leaching out of the entire back, he could clearly see the unevenness, probably because the skin inside had been swollen.

Lu Li was the closest to him, he walked over gently, patted Xiaobai's shoulder, and said.

"Bury him~We can't take him away~"

Ruoshui wanted to follow, but felt that it was not suitable, so he could only stand in place at a loss, grabbed the calm man who was about to step forward to say goodbye to Xiao Hei, and asked softly.

"I remember that Ah Niu seemed to be the only one outside, how did Xiao Hei get out?"

She has been holding this question in her heart for a long time, but she has never had the opportunity to ask, and now that people are about to be buried, she doesn't want to be confused all the way, at least she knows how these people who sacrificed for her died with their lives.

"There wasn't enough air in the pit, and when he saw that you had passed out, he volunteered to get out of the pit."

…… No wonder Xiaobai hates me so much, it turns out that there is such a relationship in this, so calculated, he really deserves to hate me......

Ruoshui thought of it after hearing this, and when he looked at Xiao Hei again, the guilt and uneasiness in his eyes became more and more obvious.

"He shouldn't like that pit, I don't want to bury him there, I'm going to dig a new ......"

Xiao Bai knelt there alone and talked to himself, and when he said this, he began to dig up, there was only one shovel, but no one in the audience took it, all of them were lying on the sand with their bare hands. Ruoshui stood beside him for a while, feeling that he couldn't watch like this anymore, so he also knelt down, rolled up his sleeves and picked up the sand together.

Xiaobai glanced up at her, but after all, he still didn't say anything, Ruoshui put his mind at ease and worked harder.

Five people went into battle together, and it was still an extremely simple matter to dig a pit, but except for Ruoshui, everyone's hands were very rough, so in the end, only Ruoshui's fingers were scratched by the gravel. But she obviously didn't want to rely on this to attract the attention of others, so when the pit was dug, she silently tucked her hand into her sleeve.

Blackie's funeral was simple, but dignified. Lu Li and the others seemed to have the rules of their own profession to die in the line of duty, and they all knelt down on one knee and sang a sacrificial song similar to the requiem, although most of them were incomplete in five tones, but the sadness in the tune did not diminish at all. When the song was finished, everyone buried the person in it. (To be continued......)
