Ruicheng is some distance from all the surrounding towns, and they have been without food for a long time, so this boy would rather have dry food than money.

Xiao Qingyu asked Liu Yusheng to go to the car to get dry food, and he asked the kid to tell him what happened in Ruicheng.

Next, we learned from the child's mouth that it was completely different from what Mr. Yang said.

The kid said that Yang Zuheng had been managing this place for ten years, although the Qing Dynasty was no longer there, but because he had soldiers under his command, all the people of Ruicheng had to listen to him.

A few years ago, Yang Zuheng was infected with smoke, so he began to increase the so-called peace tax, forcibly seized it, and many people wanted to escape, but the city gate was heavily guarded and never succeeded, so he could only be enslaved by Yang Zuheng in this Rui City.

Later, some bandits found that there was often smoke and soil coming in and out of this Ruicheng, so they decided that there must be many rich people in Ruicheng, so they began to attack Ruicheng.

At this beginning, Yang Zuheng was still very domineering, saying that the group of soldiers under him were not vegetarians, so he sent a team of pioneers out, but they were all slaughtered.

And those bandits quickly killed under the city gate, Yang Zuheng began to be a little scared, and sent people to defend the city, but the group of people under his command were idle and comfortable, where would there be a war, and within two days, the people guarding the city had changed three batches.

In the end, the child's brother Zhao Hua took the initiative to come to Yang Zuheng, saying that he wanted to guard the city gate.

At that time, Yang Zuheng had already had no main generals to use, and seeing that Zhao Huachang was five big and three thick, he was very strong, so he let him give it a try.

Sure enough, Zhao Hua did not disappoint him, and he guarded it for five days, during which he also shot many bandits with bows and arrows.

But on the seventh day, Yang Zuheng took the initiative to open the city gate and surrender.

The reason is naturally not for the people in the city, but because his tobacco has been smoked, and it is better for Yang Zuheng to die than to cut off the tobacco soil.

Therefore, he took the initiative to surrender, no matter how Zhao Hua persuaded him, it was to no avail, after the bandit entered the city gate, the first thing he did was to cut off Zhao Hua's head and hang it on the city gate, and began to burn and loot in the city, and many young girls were insulted.

But Yang Zuheng hid in the cellar with his family and actually escaped the catastrophe.

Since then, this Ruicheng has become the devastated appearance it is today.

Yang Zuheng took his relatives and relatives to occupy this small alley that did not collapse, but drove the rest of the surviving people to live in the ruins.

"I see?" I gritted my teeth, that Yang Zuheng actually disregarded the lives of so many people for his own desires, and he was the one who should be eaten by the corpse demon the most!

"Then your brother, has he really become a corpse?" Xiao Qingyu asked.

The boy was stunned and shook his head, but his eyes were a little evasive.

He said that after the bandits left, his mother secretly dragged back his brother's head and body, sewed it with a needle and thread, and then carried it to the mountains for burial.

However, early the next morning, they found that Zhao Hua's body was missing.

After saying this, the little boy's eyes looked at Liu Yusheng, who was walking towards us with dry food, and he immediately rushed towards Liu Yusheng.

Reaching out and snatching the dry food, he trotted away with the dry food in his arms.

"How's that asked?" Liu Yusheng looked at me and Xiao Qingyu and asked.

"Poor man, too." Xiao Qingyu said in a low voice.

This seemed to be answering Liu Yusheng, but it was more like talking to himself.

"Poor man?" Liu Yusheng looked at Xiao Qingyu: "Senior brother will also say such words of compassion and pity?" ”

"Prepare your crossbow, and tonight, when he comes, we'll shoot him." Xiao Qingyu didn't say anything to Liu Yusheng, just left this one sentence behind, and turned around and entered the alley.

After returning to the small building, several of us pretended to be casual, Lao Xue prepared some food for us, and after eating, we waited for the night to fall.

As night fell, I heard the door open with a "squeak, squeak."

It seemed that at the same time, the doors of the alley were opened.

Even Lao Xue carried a little hen, wiped the chicken's neck and bled it, and stuffed the chicken into the cage.

"Tonight, a few of us will be on the second floor." Xiao Qingyu felt that it was easier to aim upstairs, so the housekeeper nodded and led us up to the second floor.

When I got to the second floor, I found that there were more than a dozen large boxes on the ground, and there was a strong smell of smoke and earth coming out of the boxes.

Presumably, these are all Yang Zuheng's smoke.

"Don't touch these things, they are all the treasures of the master." Lao Xue also specially reminded him.

Xiao Qingyu waved his hand at Lao Xue and motioned for Lao Xue to go down, Lao Xue nodded and went downstairs.

Xiao Qingyu walked to the window covered by the black cloth, lifted the corner of the black cloth, and looked down.

Liu Yusheng and I also leaned over and squinted down.

From time to time, someone came out from behind the door, either holding a piece of meat in his hand, or a chicken or duck, according to what the boy said, these people were all members of the Yang family, and it was no wonder that in such a time of chaos, there were still these pieces of meat and food in their hands.

Xiao Qingyu instructed me and Liu Yusheng to take turns guarding this window tonight, each for an hour.

However, after two rounds, nothing unusual was found.

Until late at night, when Liu Yusheng was guarding, he suddenly heard a noise underneath, and faintly heard the barking of dogs.

"Did the corpse demon appear?" Xiao Qingyu sat aside and looked towards Liu Yusheng.

Liu Yusheng shook his head: "I haven't seen it yet." ”

When Xiao Qingyu heard this, he continued to close his eyes and sat on one side to rest, while I stood up and walked to the window, and also lifted the black cloth and looked down, and saw a tall black shadow walking towards the alley.

Liu Yusheng obviously saw it too, but he was not in a hurry, but like a bystander, he silently looked at the corpse demon below.

The corpse demon dragged the cage down and put all the meat in his cloth bag, and he didn't eat it on the spot?

From the entrance of the alley to our noses, it took him less than half an hour, and after some "looting", he dragged the heavy cloth bag and prepared to leave.

Only then did Liu Yusheng shout: "Senior brother, that thing is here!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Qingyu immediately rushed over, grabbed the bow and crossbow that had been prepared a long time ago, and began to look for the trace of the corpse demon.

By the time he saw the corpse demon, the other party was too far away to shoot.

Xiao Qingyu simply pushed open the window and jumped down directly, I also wanted to go downstairs to help, but I was stopped by Liu Yusheng, it seems that he doesn't plan to help!
