Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Massacre
Suddenly, it was pouring rain outside, and gusts of wind blew in with the rain, wetting the couch chairs, and the candle flame was a little shaky and almost extinguished.
The two in the room kissed each other, and they didn't even notice the rain outside and the windows that were still open.
At this time, the Wu family in Wucheng was invaded by a group of knife-wielding people, and on this stormy night, 200 members of the Wu family died.
The knife-wielder stabbed the knife into the heart, quickly, accurately, and ruthlessly without giving the victim a chance to survive. The bodies were pulled into the courtyard, layer upon layer.
A thunderbolt, deafening, was accompanied by lightning bolts that illuminated a group of people standing in the courtyard with sharp knives in their hands.
All the people who came were dressed in black and wore masks, and the patterns on this mask were similar to wolves and eagles, and there was an inexplicable horror in this dark night.
The raindrops of beans hit the corpses, and the blood on the ground had been mixed with the rain, and the knife-wielding people were afraid that there would still be living mouths and stabbed them one by one to ensure the successful completion of their mission.
Another lightning flash, thunder, rain, and wind sounded, as if the more than 200 unjust souls were crying and groaning.
It doesn't rain in the south, and people can't sleep because of the hot climate.
At this time, a group of black-clothed people from the Xu family in Nanzhou climbed over the wall, and like the Wu family in Wucheng, the old lady of the Xu family and the baby who was still in swaddling clothes, all of them were spared.
The people nearby lay on their beds and listened to the sound of insects outside, but... They heard screams one after another, and when they got up and searched together, they saw that the Xu family had already ignited a raging fire.
The rain was still falling in the north, puddles of water were accumulating on the road, and a pair of black shoes quickly stepped on the puddles and ran forward, followed by a group of people who followed closely behind, and gradually they disappeared into the heavy rain.
Sang Huai'an stopped kissing the person in front of him and pressed her forehead against her forehead.
Mai Jiu opened her eyes and gasped, she had never kissed anyone before, she was almost suffocated just now, she looked at him for a long time.
Thunder sounded outside, accompanied by a flash of lightning, and Mai Jiu was so frightened that he directly put his arms around Sang Huai'an's neck and hugged him tightly.
Sang Huai'an was so hugged by the sudden movement that he almost couldn't breathe, and Mai Jiu looked at the heavy rain outside through the window.
Sang Huaian patted Mai Jiu's back and said softly: "Don't be afraid, this king will go and close the window." After saying that, he pushed away the person who was holding him tightly, turned around and walked towards the window.
Mai Jiu slumped on the edge of the table, one hand propped back and the other on her forehead.
The headache was terrible, the pain was terrible, she trembled and wanted to walk towards the bed, but before she could take a few steps, the soles of her feet were soft and her head was down and she was about to fall.
Sang Huai'an stepped forward and grabbed the man and dragged him back. He hugged Mai Jiu from behind and said softly, "You drank today, go to bed early, and the king of tomorrow will let you boil some sobering soup." ”
Mai Jiu closed her eyes and nodded, her eyelids were very heavy at this time, as if she could fall asleep when she stood up.
Sang Huai'an picked up Mai Jiu and walked to the bed, gently put her down and brushed away the hair that blocked her face, watched the person in front of her breathe evenly, and touched her face again.
Mai Jiu fiercely held the hand on the side of his cheek and said softly, "Don't leave me, okay?" ”
Thinking that this person had fallen asleep, Sang Huaian looked at the hand holding him in a daze.
Mai Jiu opened his mouth again and said softly, "Sang Huai'an, I only have you." After saying that, a tear flowed out of the corner of his eye and hid in his hair.
"This king will not leave you, and this king will not leave you in this life."
Early in the morning of the second day
The courtyard of the Wu family in Wucheng has long been covered with blood, and the Xu family in Nanzhou has long been burned to ashes, and the news of two massacres in one night quickly spread throughout Da'an.
Mai Jiu, disturbed by the sound of birds outside the house and the headache of hangover, woke up, she sat up and looked at the windowsill, the courtyard smelled of earth, and the flowers and plants were covered with crystal dewdrops.
Mai Jiu breathed in the fresh air after the rain, she looked around and didn't see Sang Huai'an, and the position next to her was already cold when she touched it.
Book Record
Sang Huai'an sat on the chair and looked nervously at the person kneeling in front of him.
Yu Feng knelt down on one knee and bowed his head and said, "That's right, Lord Wang, the whole family of Wucheng and the whole family of 200 people were all found dead in the courtyard, and at the same time, the Xu family in Nanzhou was also invaded last night, and the perpetrators also set a fire after killing people, and again, none of them were spared." ”
"The murderer's knife technique is ruthless, almost killing him with a knife in the heart, and the person who comes is meticulous and picks a rainy day and sets fire, and there are very few clues that can be left."
Sang Huai'an took a deep breath: "The Wu family and the Xu family are both hairpins that can be reused by the imperial court. He frowned, thought about something, and continued: "Such a big thing happened, what is the emperor doing at this time?" ”
"You also know that the emperor has been busy with autumn hunting recently."
Sang Huai'an slapped the table, his expression was solemn and angry, and he said, "This king knows!" ”
Chengde hurriedly ran from outside: "Lord Wang, the emperor's secret report to you." ”
Sang Huaian took the envelope and opened it quickly, and when he saw the contents of the letter, he was so angry that he took a deep breath.
After reading it, he slapped the letter on the table: "Pass on the king's order, send troops to Wucheng and Nanzhou to protect the scene, Dali Temple Shaoqing, General Lin will go with this king to investigate the case, and it is urgent to leave tomorrow." ”
Mai Jiu had already finished washing, sitting on the stool and drinking white porridge, and Zhihua beside him asked worriedly, "Master, do you want to drink a few sips of the sobering soup sent by the prince." ”
Mai Jiu stuffed a spoonful of white porridge into his mouth, shook his head and said, "Don't drink, don't drink, I'm fine." ”
Now she is awake and has no headaches.
Zhihua grinned and tears flowed out: "Master, you really scared the slave to death yesterday, if you have anything to talk to the slave and maid in the future, don't hold it in your heart." ”
Mai Jiu shook his hand with a spoon and said, "Eh, you children don't understand, and you don't understand either." ”
Zhihua pouted aggrievedly: "Master, don't you say how do you know about the slave." ”
Mai Jiu shook his hand again and didn't reply.
After breakfast, Mai Jiu wanted to go back to sleep again, but he didn't want to sleep and slept until the afternoon. She got up and looked at the empty room, she hadn't seen Sang Huai'an since morning, and she didn't know what the man was doing.
Sang Huai'an went to Yanshengwu to find Ling Qingyin, he wanted to give Mai Jiuxun a secret weapon to defend himself at Ling Qingyin's, but he was satisfied with finding nothing left and right.
At dinner, Mai Jiucai finally met Sang Huai'an, and she enthusiastically called Zhihua to add a pair of dishes and chopsticks.
Sang Huai'an sat on the stool next to Mai Jiu and said, "This king is going out, and it will take several days to come back. ”
Mai Jiu was stunned when she took the bowl and chopsticks handed by Zhihua, and she slowed down for a while before putting the bowl in front of Sang Huai'an.
Sang Huai'an looked down at Mai Jiu's hand that put the bowl, and with the movement of withdrawing her hand, she looked at the person next to her, and he was stunned when she saw the person's eyes.
Mai Jiu's heart was full of loss for some reason, and his eyes were also full of reluctance.
"Okay, let's go."
"The king has left you two secret guards, and if anything happens, let the secret guards inform the king."
Mai Jiu replied lightly, "Okay." ”
It is still a good word, it turns out that talking to Gu Ziyuan is always a good word, and Sang Huai'an was a little bored when he heard this word again.
"This king doesn't want to hear you say that."
Mai Jiu grinned, and a smile rose at the corner of his mouth and sang, "I wish you peace, oh~, I wish you peace." ”
Sang Huai'an's face instantly turned cold.
Mai Jiu saw Sang Huai'an's stinky face, and she immediately closed her mouth and turned her head away.
Sang Huai'an said in a cold tone: "This king is going to investigate the case." ”
Mai Jiu turned his head when he heard this: "Yo, you still have this skill, Detective Di Renjie!" ”
Sang Huaian heard that the person in front of him was ridiculing himself, he closed his eyes and the green tendons on his forehead jumped, gritted his teeth and said, "Gu Ziyuan..."
Mai Jiu quickly reached out and covered the mouth of the person in front of him, "You really don't know how to tease." ”
She let go of her hand, turned her head, thought about it, and continued, "You are the prince of Da'an, I know that the people also need you, no matter where you go, come back safely, okay?" Don't worry me like you did last time. ”
Sang Huai'an stared at the person beside him, and looked at it without speaking.
On the second day, Sang Huai'an got up early to set off, but Mai Jiu lay on the bed on his side and kept his eyes open and kept paying attention to the man's every move.
Sang Huai'an was wearing a dark green collared robe, his hair was tied up with a hosta, and he stepped on a pair of white deer boots to facilitate horseback riding.
Mai Jiu looked at Sang Huai'an, who was neatly dressed and holding a long sword, she felt very uncomfortable and reluctant.
Sang Huai'an turned his head to look at the bed, and Mai Jiu quickly closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep. I heard the door open and then close again, and when I woke up, the room was empty.
She got up and sat up, thought for a long time, and didn't know what to do, so she sat on the edge of the bed.
The sun slowly rose outside the window, and Zhihua pushed the door in and saw the person sitting on the edge of the bed: "Master, you are awake, Miss Qingyin sent someone to call, saying that you should go to Yanshengwu, master, and said that it was ordered by the prince." ”
Mai Jiu stood in the small courtyard of Yanshengwu with a sloppy look, and Ling Qingyin changed into light clothes and stood in front of Mai Jiu.
Mai Jiu yawned and asked, "Have you had breakfast?" ”
Ling Qingyin nodded, picked up Mai Jiu's hand and wrote something, Lord Wang, let me, teach you, secret weapon.
Mai Jiu became interested, Ling Qingyin let go of Mai Jiu's hand and took out a pair of Yin and Yang Thorn Chakras from his waist.
Mai Jiu looked down and saw that it was a pair of ring-like things on his hands. Lin Qingyin walked up to the stake and cut it, and a piece of wood fell down.
Mai Jiu's eyes widened: "Then do you have any blood drops here?" ”
Lin Qingyin turned her head with a puzzled face, Mai Jiu understood the doubts of the person in front of her, she stretched out her hand and gestured: "It's such a big one, bring an iron chain, and then brush." ”
Mai Jiu made a forward throwing motion and continued, "Just like that, I put the person's head on it, and then I pulled the person's head and it fell off. ”
Mai Jiu danced for a long time, the person in front of her was still expressionless, she put down her hand and said embarrassedly, "Do you understand?" It is... It's just amazing. ”
Ling Qingyin shook his head.
Mai Jiu continued to speak shamelessly, "Is there that kind of blow needle, as soon as the blow needle comes out, the person will die." ”
Ling Qingyin continued to shake his head.
"Is there any..."
Before Mai Jiu finished speaking, she saw Lin Qingyin walking quickly towards her, and the speed was so fast that she immediately shut up.
Lin Qingyin put down the Yin Yang Thorn Chakra and picked up Mai Jiu's hand and wrote, Suitable, but, and, stop.
