Chapter 323: Go see Hua Ting
For safety, the people on the roof retreated to the roofs of the houses.
The flames burned for two hours, the fireworks stained half of the sky red, and the temple collapsed, with broken bricks and tiles everywhere, and black smoke filled the air.
Dawn arrives and dawn rises.
The patrol covered their mouths and noses with cloth towels, and stepped into the Dragon King Temple with weapons in their hands and in the heat in hand.
The morning breeze suddenly rose, rolling up a thick layer of ash all over the ground, and everyone was blown to ashes.
After burning the oil overnight, the puppet corpse was not even a residue, but a pile of ashes.
The altar was empty except for the heavy ashes. For the sake of safety, Lu Tingxiu sent people into the tunnel to inspect, and there was nothing else except for clearing out dozens of charred corpses.
Xia Qiu breathed a deep sigh of relief and rested tiredly beside him.
Lu Tingxiu didn't have her life, so he convened his subordinates to discuss and block and bury all the secret passages of the Dragon King Temple.
Wei Ge escorted the wounded cloaked woman over. The woman is injured a lot, and at the age of about forty, the charm still exists, and you can see the beauty and style of her youth.
Defeated, her face was expressionless, no matter how the people in the government interrogated, she didn't spit out a word, like a wooden person, as if she was bent on death.
Qiao Ye fulfilled her slightly, drawing his sword and facing each other.
Lu Tingxiu drank and kept his mouth alive.
Thinking of what she had done, the people of the whole city almost died at the hands of the zombie monsters, and Xia Qiu glanced at Qiao Yewei.
Qiao Ye raised and fell with her sword slightly, not only abolishing her martial arts, but also breaking her tendons and tendons.
It is Lu Tingxiu's task to try the case, as long as there is a living mouth, I believe that sooner or later I will be able to pry her mouth open.
Old man Xu rushed over with the doctor from the Hanging Pot Pavilion to treat and bandage the injured.
The crisis was lifted, Xia Qiu dragged his tired body back to the house, and fell asleep directly.
There was no rest for many days, and it was noon the next day when I woke up, Xia Qiu's whole person was confused, and it was like a long dream in a trance.
The sun was shining outside, and there was the sound of Qiao Biwei playing with Xiao Shao in the yard.
The night of the Seven Stars has passed, she is still alive, and Linxian has not repeated the mistakes of her previous life.
Xia Qiu opened the window, the dazzling sunlight was dazzling, she rested her eyes with her hands, and it took a while to get used to it.
The door was gently pushed open, and Jin walked in with the medicine.
When the mother and daughter saw each other, tears rolled in Jin's eyes.
No one spoke, hugging each other tightly.
Xia Qiu was silent for a long time, and her voice was hoarse, "Mother, I'm sorry." ”
"I don't blame you." Jin endured the pain and choked up: "Ah Yu won't blame you, this may be her life." ”
In the past few days, the Jin family had to accept the fact that Wu Yu was dead. Wu Yu's previous events had actually predicted his outcome for a long time, and he was even prepared.
That night, she deliberately ran out.
Jin's open-mindedness made Xia Qiu, who was guilty and self-reproachful, feel a little better.
There are no puppet corpses in the city, and the people's access is no longer restricted, but there are still remnants of monsters in the villages and towns.
The danger in the county town was lifted, but the aftermath task was complicated, Lu Tingxiu ate and slept in the yamen, and he had no time to come back.
Xia Qiu gave him a meal and took Er Qiao to the yamen.
For the rest of his life after the catastrophe, Lu Tingxiu had a full stomach for Xia Qiu, but because Er Qiao was there, he restrained himself.
Qiao Biwei is a big ghost, and said with a smile: "Lord Lu, if there is anything we can help with, just ask, Ye Wei and I are at your disposal at any time." ”
Lu Tingxiu was really not polite, he didn't worry about the major post road construction points, and Er Qiao had experience in dealing with puppet corpses, so he just asked them to patrol for him.
Qiao Biwei received the task, gave Xia Qiu a mischievous look, and set off immediately with Qiao Yewei.
There were no outsiders there, and Lu Tingxiu hugged Xia Qiu. The vision from the sky has passed, Wu Yu is also dead, Xia Fatpang is no longer a different body and the same soul, she should not leave him again.
The four eyes are facing each other, and silence is better than sound.
No one spoke first, Lu Tingxiu lowered his head and kissed Xia Qiu. He didn't take care of himself carefully for a few days, and the scumbag made Xia Qiu's face itch, she struggled in his arms, and said shyly: "You hurt me." ”
There were no outsiders, and the two of them were tired and crooked for a while, and Lu Tingxiu picked up the chopsticks to eat.
With the help of many people, the secret passage has been filled and the exit has been completely sealed. After a battle, King Liang's conspiracy failed, and more than 20,000 puppet corpses died in Lin County, but the loss of Lin County was also clear, more than 100 people died, more than 300 people were injured, and the people who disappeared before have not been recovered, plus the losses of smashing and looting, it is difficult to estimate.
However, compared to the previous life, this is already a great victory, the city of Lin County is not broken, and the people are still alive.
However, no one dares to guarantee that the puppet corpse has been completely destroyed, and no one dares to take it lightly. I am afraid that once I let down my guard, I will never recover.
In any case, it is imperative to find the missing people.
Xia Qiu frowned, "What are you going to do?" ”
If you say this, you don't say it, in fact, Xia Qiu is very innocent, and Lu Tingxiu wants to liquidate Hua Ting.
She was silent for a long time and looked up at Lu Tingxiu, "Before you act, I want to see him." ”
Lu Tingxiu didn't speak, obviously refusing.
"Hua Ting hasn't left Lin County, he must have prepared for the worst, even if you bring him to justice, you may not be able to get the answer you want." Xia Qiu insisted on his opinion, "He has dismissed all his subordinates, and he will not pose any threat to me." Let me go, maybe there will be an unexpected reward. ”
Lu Tingxiu still didn't agree. Hua Ting has gone crazy, no one dares to guarantee that he will make any outrageous moves, her safety is the most important thing.
"He has a knot in his heart, and if he doesn't untie it, the missing person may never be recovered."
She couldn't help it, and he had to agree if he didn't agree.
Lu Tingxiu made a concession and asked Wei Ge to protect her safety closely.
Xia Qiu did not leave immediately, but went to Yizhuang, sat quietly in front of Wu Yu's coffin for half an hour, and cleaned up his mood before getting up to go to Washington.
Compared with the prosperity of a few months ago, Washington is desolate and desolate.
The subordinates of the mansion had all been sent away, and Xia Qiu walked into the courtyard where Hua Ting lived, smelling the pungent smell of wine from afar.
Pushing open the door, there were wine bottles all over the floor, and Hua Ting lay on the table and didn't wake up.
The foot accidentally kicked the wine bottle, and it made a clanging sound, which was unusually harsh in the silence of the room.
Hua Ting opened his eyes in a daze, propped up his drunken body with his hands, and when he saw that it was summer and autumn, his pupils slowly widened.
As if he had guessed that she would come, Hua Ting didn't have much surprise on his face.
Xia Qiu entered the room and sat down opposite him, opened his mouth and didn't know where to start.
Hua Ting was haggard, his eyes were deeply sunken, and his gloomy eyes stared at Xia Qiu, "Are you coming by yourself, or did he let you come?" ”
"I came on my own." Xia Qiu took a breath, "There are some things I want to ask clearly. ”
