Chapter 181: Dealing with the Aftermath

I felt his pulse. The pulse is still very strong. It seems that he has lost too much blood and caused a coma. I don't want anything to happen to Xuanyun. If something happens to Xuanyun. It's really hard for me to explain to the second senior brother in the future. I'm okay with my uncle. Let the teacher and nephew be injured. I don't feel good about it.

Master Ran also squatted down to look at Xuanyun's injuries and said, "It's okay. It's just that there is a lot of blood loss. Young people will definitely get through it. Now let's clean up the battlefield first. Take away all the useful ones. A fire that can't be taken away is burned."

"Master Bo. Old man. I have one more discovery. A secret room was found behind the painting in the nave of the main house. It's full of weapons. I estimate that there are more than 5,000 pieces. How do we get it? It would be a shame if it burned."

Old Man Wang was surprised and said, "Yes. And this good thing. Take me to see it." He turned back to Wang Jianhua and said, "You are in the courtyard. Gather all the loot. Look at how many wagons there are. Kill more horses. And our casualties. It's all counted and reported to me."

Wang Jianhua agreed. Go command the soldiers to clean up the battlefield statistics. I brought Old Man Wang and Master Ran to the main hall. Master Ran and Old Man Wang went in and looked at it and came out and said, "These things have to be taken away. This is something we desperately need. Not a single one can be left."

By this time, the soldiers had already brought up the captive women and the captives of the Yin Demon Cult below. The soldiers are also moving the things inside. The old man walked up to the women and said, "I know that you are all women of good families. There are families in the family. Captured by bandits. Now we're going to let you go home. One of you will give you five taels of silver. Stay until dawn and go back."

A group of women were frightened by the night's beating and killing. It's all about to collapse. Most of them are still crying there. They don't know what fate awaits them. Listen to what Old Man Wang said. There was a sudden silence. One didn't speak. Old man Wang saw that no one spoke to them. He said, "Did you hear what I said? When you hear it, make a statement."

Old Man Wang's voice just fell. And out of the crowd came a woman in her thirties. The man came to the old man and knelt down and said, "Benefactor. My name is Yunna Liu. It's a native of the capital. You let us go home, where do we have a home now? I've been in exile for two years. Now when we go back, our family won't accept us. Besides, we're all ruined. If we go back, we will be caught here doing this. Don't be killed by jokes yet. So I'd like to ask the benefactor to take us away. We're going to die when we go back. If you don't take us, kill us here. We will go back and suffer the sins. We can't fight though. But it can also be washed with paddles. Sisters, do you say yes?"

The women in the back heard Liu Yunna say this. They all knelt down together and said: | Oh, yes. Please take us away."

Old man Wang looked like this. Look back at me. I know the old man also let me take the idea. It's a big deal.

I pulled the old man aside and said, "Old man. I'll take them back with me. What Liu Yunna said is also reasonable. They will die when they go back. Take it back to our cottage. We also have quite a few soldiers who are single. See if they don't dislike them. You'll just make a match. It's a life-saver."

I said yes. Of course, Old Man Wang has nothing to object to. Then he said to the women, "Since you are willing to follow us; Let's go together. But since it's with us. You will not be able to go home. I don't know if you'd like to do it or not. If someone wants to leave, it's okay. Receive the money at once. Leave at dawn."

The women said in unison, "Benefactor. We don't go home. I'm willing to follow you."

"Oh well. Go and wait in the courtyard. We'll pack up and hit the road in a moment."

Sent the women away. Old Man Wang asked me again, "Look at what these captives do. Settle it on the spot or take it back."

"I'll look at the captives. And half of them were slightly injured. I guess they won't surrender. We can't kill them like this, old man. It's a life after all. I think so. Take them back. Locked in solitary confinement. And interrogation. Let's see if there are any other strongholds in the vicinity. Are they. I guess I'll just let them work for reform. See if there are those who are sincere to us, they can also be taken in. What do you see?"

Old Man Wang nodded in agreement. Master Ran is a monk. It is in itself with compassion in mind. Don't look at killing a lot of people. But there is no way to kill it. Let him kill a man who has no ability to resist with his bare hands. He really can't do it.

Let's see if you have any objections. The prisoners were dealt with as I said. The captives were taken to the courtyard by the soldiers. The room was full of soldiers coming in and out. In the transportation of weapons and supplies.

After a while, Wang Jianhua, who was counting supplies and collecting the wounded and fallen soldiers outside, also came in. He said to us, "We have lost thirty of them. Thirty-five wounded. There are a few injuries that are more serious. Everything else is minor injuries and can act on their own. Fifty-two of the bandits of the Demon Cult were killed by us. Sixteen captives. Two more ran away. Outside, five hundred stone of grain was found. The silver was more than three thousand taels. and fifty-four horses. Eleven carts. What do we do with the supplies?"

I beckoned the three of them to come and sit down in the row of chairs. I started by saying, "I'll see how much we can take with us. The remains of the fallen must be brought back. This will not chill the hearts of the soldiers. It's good that there are so many carriages. Horses can also be carried on their own devices. Just how to deal with this place. Please also ask the master and the old man to take a look."

"You're right. The remains of the soldiers must be taken away. As for this, I think it's better to burn it. Can't leave them in the utilization. You don't see if you can see it, Master."

After speaking, Old Man Wang looked at Master Ran. Master Ran replied, "Yes. That's it. It's good to blow this place up. The guys in the province are back again. Throw all these corpses into the fire and burn them together. Otherwise, when the government comes to investigate, it will become a big case. If that's the case, it's going to be troublesome. It is estimated that this Yin Demon Sect will not dare to say anything. They don't want to alarm the government."

Wang Jianhua went to arrange these aftermaths. I said to the two of them again, "I want Wang Jinhuai to come to the capital to help me. What do you see?"

"Yes. It's just that Wang Jinhuai is now our material manager there. It's really inconvenient for him to go. But you're there for the most important thing. I'll let him hand it over when I get back. Then go to the capital to find you. Just let me know if you need anything. I don't think you have a lot of people there. Do you want to turn a few over?"
