Chapter 424: Can't Be Saved
"The bottom of the mine is crooked, even if you throw poison, as long as you hide in other mines, there will definitely be people alive." Zhuang Rou used to dig mines when he was a child, and some of the mines were so small that people could only bend down to enter them.
Children like them are even more convenient than adults to get in, without having to bend down or kneel to climb in to mine. There are many places to live inside, unless it is a fire or collapse, otherwise as long as the poisonous mine tunnel is sealed, it can survive.
Mu Shi looked at her, his eyes narrowed like two crescent moons, and he said meaningfully: "The spider smoke of the Xuanji Camp, after being lit with fire, can continue to burn out poisonous smoke for half an hour. ”
"In a place like a mine, spider smoke is like a fish in water, and I threw three into it, and not even a single worm in it could survive."
He smiled: "You let them hide in the mine before, right, and indeed many people ran in later, just to save me trouble." ”
"You!" Zhuang Rou glared at him angrily, he had never seen a person who could kill an unarmed person so calmly. There is no arrogance, no excuses, and no mercy.
It was as if it was not a person who was killed, but a basin of hot water was overturned, poured on the ant nest, and a swarm of inconsequential ants was drowned.
At this time, Mu stood up, no matter how Zhuang Rou was staring over there, looking for things everywhere.
Zhuang Rou can't beat him, this kind of person can only subdue him with the means of the imperial court, and when the people from the state capital come over and see so many corpses, someone will inevitably report to the capital. There are countless intrigues among the ministers in the capital, as long as he is used to open the knife, the Falcon Gate will not be able to protect him at that time.
Seeing that he seemed to be looking for something, Zhuang Rou asked, "What are you looking for?" ”
Mu Shi said casually: "Tung oil is used for oil, torches, there must be a lot of it here." ”
"What do you want oil for?" Zhuang Rou asked puzzled.
Mu Shi glanced back at her, "Let the seniors teach you how to destroy the corpse." ”
I want to burn all the corpses!
If he is allowed to do this, then how can he let the people of the yamen see this miserable situation, Zhuang Rou thought of this and hurriedly rushed over, blocked in front of him and said: "No, I don't allow you to burn them." ”
"These people have been killed by you, and at the very least, you have to find their families and lay them in peace. Otherwise, there will be no place to go to the grave in the future, and even if you have no conscience, don't do it so desperately. ”
Mu Shi spread his hands and smiled: "Yes, according to what you said, I won't move these corpses." ”
When he had finished speaking, he stopped looking, and sat down again on the pile of wood, and sat there quietly to rest.
Zhuang Rou has something hidden in her heart, anyway, this Mu clan is unwilling to kill herself, so she will make a deal for him. While he was resting here, he went to the mouth of the valley to wait for Chu Xia first, which scared him a lot, and made him so angry that he went back to report to the imperial court.
So, she left Mu Shi and ran to the mouth of the valley by herself.
This time, Zhuang Rou no longer hesitated, everyone was dead, what were you waiting for. She pushed the door open with all her might, pulled her legs and ran outside.
She hadn't gone far before she stopped, and saw a starry fire in the distance, and someone was slowly approaching her.
Zhuang Rou stared at this group of firelights, and there was only one thought in her heart: so slow!
No wonder I haven't seen anyone for so long, it turns out that I am walking slower than the eighty old lady, and I am afraid that there will be no trap here?
She just stood on the field, watching the group of people calmly come over, until Ma Dezheng, who was walking in front of the hunter who led the way, saw a person standing in front of him, and waved the torch before everyone stopped.
"What are you still doing now?" Zhuang Rou didn't have any torches, stood in front of him with his hands in his arms, and looked gloomily at Ma Dezheng, who had just come now.
Ma Dezheng thought that he had met the enemy, and when he held the torch and took a closer look, he hurriedly caught up and said, "My lord, it's great that you're okay!" ”
Zhuang Rou grabbed him, so angry that he couldn't do it, "Why did you go for so long, the horse was killed by the Mu clan, did you really walk back?" It's urgent, grab the horse and go back to report the news! ”
"My lord, we've really grabbed the horses. As soon as he hurried back and talked to the adults, he gathered people and came over without any delay. Ma Dezheng hurriedly explained, and at this time, Diao Yi had already run to the back to report to Chu Xia.
"Don't bluff me, I'm not flying, can't you all walk first!" Zhuang Rou asked, this is really too slow, what's the use of coming back when everyone is dead.
Ma Dezheng rarely saw her so angry, and suddenly felt bad in his heart, and asked cautiously: "My lord, are the two sons already killed?" ”
"......" Zhuang Rou stared at him, and suddenly let go of her hand, the person was killed under her eyelids, and half of her was not saved. Because she resented those guards, she waited for Mu to arrive before going down the valley, and at that time she also had the idea of letting him kill those people.
One wrong step, one wrong step, how can you blame others.
She took a deep breath and gradually calmed down her anger, "Your Excellency is here?" ”
"Yes, it's right in the back." Ma Dezheng didn't get a positive answer, but after thinking about it, he still had the courage to ask again, "My lord, ...... two sons?"
Zhuang Rou glanced at him, "It's dead." ”
"Ahh Ma Dezheng opened his mouth wide in shock, and his heart was terrified, the two sons of King An's Mansion died, are you still alive?
Zhuang Rou ignored him anymore, walked directly back, and after a while, he saw Chu Xia coming on horseback. He looked left and right with wide eyes wide open like a rabbit, as if something terrifying would jump out of the night.
Chu Xia also saw her, and only after looking up and down did he breathe a sigh of relief, "It's okay if you're okay, I'm worried about you." What's going on inside, the Mu family should have finished everything, right? ”
Zhuang Rou looked up at him and asked suspiciously, "What did the adults say?" ”
"Of course, did you kill them all?" Chu Xia looked at her curiously, "The Mu clan never leaves a living mouth, even if he has playfulness when he calculates the time, it should be solved now." ”
It turned out that everyone knew, and the adult also knew very well, as long as the Mu clan went out, they would kill everyone here.
So my brother also knew, so he specially told him not to kill himself......
Zhuang Rou lowered her eyes and said, "My lord can't see the corpse, do you want to go in and have a look now?" ”
Chu Xia sat on the horse and watched her without speaking, and after a while, he dismounted and pulled her to walk towards the valley on foot.
Someone in front opened the way, followed by a large group of people, Xiao Ran and Shi Zang followed from a distance, Zhuang Rou was pulled forward by him, and couldn't help but look back at the people behind him.
When I arrived in the valley for a while, I don't know how these people would feel when they saw the corpses all over the valley.
"There are times when things in this world make people feel helpless and feel powerless. You don't have to feel guilty about it, there are always gains and losses in this world. Chu Xia said as he walked.
Zhuang Rou looked at his side face and frowned slightly, "Is it necessary to kill them all?" ”
Chu Xia looked back at her and smiled, "Maybe one day, you can't save me, and I can't protect you, so I can only watch the other party die." It's not that you can save the person you want to save if you want to save it, but what really exists is that you may not be able to save it alone. ”
