Zhou Manyun pulled the rope ladder hanging on the side wall of the shaft and began to climb again, his eyes couldn't help but look at it, only to see a darkness.

Knowing that Brother Shen was below and needed to be rescued urgently, Manyun's hands and feet were still trembling on the rope.

When she came down, she didn't think too much about finding Brother Shen, but at this moment, the angry tide that roared from the depths of her heart almost slapped her into the abyss.

"How can you bear it?" After being pulled out of the hole that had been removed to cover the box, Zhou Manyun supported his knees with both hands, took a deep breath, and glared at Mrs. Zhou who was on the side with burning eyes.

She was beside Zhou Shen in the basement room, and picked up a bloodstained knife and cloth strips, obviously Zhou Shen's severed finger in the box next to Mrs. Zhou's pillow had been taken down in this room not long ago.

Previously, it was only Mrs. Zhou and Mother Yu who were in this room.

The silver-haired old woman, who was already awake, had been wrapped in a brocade quilt, and her body shrunk into a ball tremblingly, looking very pitiful. A daughter-in-law in her thirties, who hugged her tightly and whispered comfort, and immediately glared back without showing weakness when she noticed that Man Yun's gaze seemed to be relied on, and Mrs. Zhou, who seemed to feel that she had something to rely on, shrunk even tighter, and the sound of crying was even more endless.

Xie Xiangping, a middle-aged woman holding Mrs. Zhou, recognized by Manyun. She originally used the maid next to Mrs. Zhou to be the housekeeper, Mrs. Zhou was locked up in Zeting's manor by Zhou Xian, and Xiangping immediately abandoned her husband and son and invited several of her companions to follow, and it has been several years.

arranged for a guard about five feet tall to immediately go down from the entrance of the cave to pick up people, Du Xuanshuang walked to Man Yun's side and reported softly: "Mother Yu is dead!" ”

Yu's mother who was twisted in the door. Earlier, he was bitten by the guards and hit the wall with his tongue and tied his hands and feet. Gagged and tossed aside.

Mrs. Zhou tossed the movement. Xiangping and others rushed over, very fierce. She took a group of faithful protectors to scratch her face and twist her arms, and she was stunned to make a few guards who were caught off guard. Fortunately, there were old men in the guards, and the tiger raised his face, removed the arms of several head-beating women, and threw them aside to scare people.

But the most brutal Xiangping still broke into Mrs. Zhou's room in a daze.

When the chaos was calmed down, the guards who stayed at the door found that Yu's mother, who was leaning against the corner, had died in the hall at some point.

"It should be one of those people!" , Du Xuanshuang pointed to the Buddha hall opposite.

Because of the limited manpower temporarily mobilized, they went to look at the He family again. The fifteen or sixteen people who came with him began to defend themselves from the beginning of the courtyard gate, and they had no time to screen the murderers one by one, so they could only temporarily drive all the subordinates in the courtyard into the Buddhist hall one by one.

Zhou Manyun hummed softly, and then stared intently at the hole by the wall. She knew that it was important to investigate the murder, but she didn't have the heart to do it now.

When he saw that Zhou Shen, who was in a daze, was lifted out by the guards below and placed on the red sandalwood bed, Xiangping, who had been coaxing Mrs. Zhou with the tip of the knife coldly, couldn't help but turn his face white, but when he lowered his head and stroked Mrs. Zhou's white hair, there was a little more determination in his eyes.

Relax the depression held in your chest. Zhou Manyun arrived in the hall and looked at Yu's mother's body.

Yu's mother's bound body curled up into a shrimp shape, and there were purple and black blood stains at the corners of her mouth, Man Yun rolled down the corpse's eyelids and checked her hands again. Soon, a wound was found in the palm of Yu's mother's left hand, which was peeled off, as if the color of the stained Kodan had faded.

"She killed herself." , Man Yun raised his head and said to Du Xuanshuang. While flipping the back of Yu's mother's hand.

Yu's mother's face was also coated with honey powder, but it did not lose the dignity and simplicity of an elderly woman. But the ten fingers that were flipped over were dyed bright red. All nine of them are normal, only deliberately cultivated like a triangular pointed cone, and the fingernails of the index finger of the left hand are stained with highly poisonous "red breath".

This poison is applied externally. But as long as it is contaminated with broken skin and poisoned into the blood, it will cause death. Thinking that Yu's mother, who was tied up, just took advantage of the chaos to make a finger bending movement and ended her life.

Man Yun got up and beat around for a while, picked up a copper finger sleeve beside Yu's mother, and said, "Fortunately, she just killed herself by leaving poison instead of killing people, otherwise whoever is scratched will lose her life." Since entering the hospital, she and Yinzi have been paying attention to Zhou Shen's blood poison breath, and they have carelessly ignored the slight poison on Yu's mother.

She looked at the Buddhist hall that was being guarded by two guards, and said, "Those people are just locked up like this, it's fine." Uncle don't let people have physical contact with them for the time being, and we'll talk about it when we find out. ”

If among these loyal servants who served Mrs. Zhou, there were one or two more mothers, it would be very terrible.

"Don't move!" At this moment, a guard shouted fiercely in Mrs. Zhou's bedroom.

"Miss Six!" , Xiangping's voice screamed miserably, and said, "It was I who conspired with Yu's mother to kidnap someone!" The old lady was so sick that we dug a hole in her room and hid her? ”

"Who did you tie up?" , Hearing this, Man Yun, who turned around and was standing at the door, stared at Mrs. Zhou, who was leaning on Xiangping, and asked coldly.

Although the old woman retracted imperceptibly the fingers that wanted to stick to Xiangping's body, Zhou Manyun still took the subtle changes into her eyes. Man Yun intuitively felt that Xiangping was meaninglessly scapegoating, and when she rushed to Zeting to ask Liu Laoqi, he had already said that Huo Cheng's kidnapping case yesterday had not yet received news from Zeting Zhuang, and the people involved in the kidnapping here should not be publicized to too many people.

"Tie ......", Xiangping's eyes glanced at the big bed, gritted his teeth fiercely, Huo Di stood up, and slammed into the unsheathed knife of a guard beside him.

The old lady's house is a secret hole, and there are people who have been rescued, all of this Xiangping doesn't know anything, she can't see clearly who the person on the bed is who is blocked, and she didn't hear the conversation of Manyun and the others in the panic just now, and she can't go any further, so she only thinks of the way to protect the Lord with death.

Xiangping's self-defeating pounce was flashed, and instead his arm was twisted and pressed to the ground. But he kept shouting, "Don't do the old lady's business, everything is the idea of the and Mother Yu......"

"Throw her and the old lady into the Buddha hall too! Someone wants to come out of it, so they go directly to the crossbow and shoot to kill, no matter who it is! The word zuihou was bitten very hard.

Du Xuanshuang couldn't help but glance at the brother who wanted to stay. If Mrs. Zhou is noisy and breaks into the door, she can only take away the power of her hands and feet. They weren't afraid to kill, but they couldn't let Man Yun have a reputation for killing his grandmother.

But Mrs. Zhou never struggled from being carried from the ground to being thrown into the Buddha hall, only crying all the time, like an innocent child.

A large lock locked the door of the temple from the outside, and several guards began to nail wooden strips to the doors and windows......

Manyun, who was in a hurry to go to He's house, didn't have time to carefully check whether those women were poisoned, so she could only lock them up first, as for whether these people trapped in the room would commit suicide or kill people again, she was powerless to have compassion.

"I guess my grandmother will teach them how to make confessions, right?" , Zhou Manyun looked at the He family full of wolves, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smack.

Almost at the same time as they rescued Zhou Shen, someone in the He family in the northwest corner of Zhuangzi sensed the danger of being besieged. Thinking that he had already failed, two figures flew out of the courtyard, intending to flee.

Because when Zhou Shen was tied up, the white-haired old woman had sprayed a black poisonous water on the guard's face. Although the guards who were splashed were not killed, their eyes had been destroyed, and one of their faces had been strangely wiped out by the black water, and they were very hideous. Man is not dead, but this life will be worse than death. Zhou Manyun has no way to help that poor man now.

With the lessons of the past, the guards who came to Zeting were not only reminded to be careful of any unconfirmed and reliable living people in close proximity, but also brought bows and crossbows. Overcoming poison with poison cannot be achieved, so it can only be preempted before being approached by the enemy. Facing the He family, who was already a key suspect, when Xuan Shuang arranged the manpower, he even explained that if he encountered resistance or escaped, he would be killed.

At that moment, Qi Kai's crossbow shot one, but there was also a skilled man who at first blocked a few arrows with his living accomplice, and then fled from the encirclement with arrow wounds.

The guards who had tracked them down hadn't heard from them yet.

The corpse that fell five zhang away in front of He's house was a man. After being identified by Hongmei's brother-in-law, it was Xie Deshan, a relative of the He family.

Xie Deshan has an ordinary appearance, but there is an obvious sarcoma on his chin, and the characteristics are obvious, so he will not be mistaken for it.

There were also several corpses in the hall of the He family, except for the two daughters who were married outside, all the He family died. But there was no Xie Deshan's wife in it, and perhaps the one who escaped was the same woman.

"They're all poisoned!" , Man Yun glanced at the few drinking cups on the table, sighed lightly, and said, "When the sky is bright, let's divide someone to check his two daughters." ”

Whether the family who died due to poison was murdered, or committed suicide collectively like Yu's mother, Zhou Manyun no matter what he came to the conclusion.

The world is inconclusive, and people are seen as thugs who help and abet abuse, but in the eyes of others, they are righteous people who swear allegiance to the death.

Zhou Manyun's eyes turned cold, and he confessed softly: "Collect all their corpses......

While the He family had waited for a short time, the guards who were tracking the fleeing bandits reported back to each other. The wounded bandit rushed to a reed swing next to the river, jumped into a small boat, and the boat seemed to be waiting for someone to answer, and when he saw the person on board, he immediately turned into the river.

"Brother Dou has already taken his two brothers to find a boat to chase ......", the guards who reported back were a little annoyed, and there was only one boat hidden in the reeds over there, so that they could only watch the shadow of the boat from the shore and go straight south.

"These kidnappers are also considered to be thoughtful!" , Du Xuanshuang also sighed, just talking about hiding Zhou Shen in his grandmother's room is already incredible. If it weren't for Man Yun chasing Zeting after him, it is estimated that he would not have found such a result for a while. (To be continued......)
