"What are you doing? Check it out. Seeing Wu Zhiyuan standing in place, Manniu took the lead and walked forward.

In autumn and winter, the northwest wind blows, and the three of them are in the south of the city, which happens to be in the downwind direction, and the smell of smoke from the burning houses in the city is extremely heavy, which makes people a little out of breath.

The three of them soon came to the ruined temple, and the brute bull was straightforward and bold, and shouted from a distance: "Come to Di! Come on! ”

It wasn't until the three of them walked into the ruins on all sides that no one answered, and then they realized that Ju'er and Laidi were not here at all.

The only hope was shattered, and Wu Zhiyuan suddenly felt an indescribable loss in his heart. Hua Gu and Manniu also showed a depressed expression, and it could be seen that they also cared about Laidi.

"I'll go out and look for them." Wu Zhiyuan turned around and walked outside.

"Wait!" Hua Gu's voice sounded behind Wu Zhiyuan, "It's so chaotic outside, it's dangerous for you to go out like this." ”

"It's better than sitting here and waiting." Wu Zhiyuan stopped, but he didn't look back, at this time he was a little confused and anxious.

"Jinan City is so big, and it's night again, where are you going to find them?" Hua Gu asked.

"Let's look for it." Wu Zhiyuan replied, and walked outside, in fact, he was not sure at all, just to make his heart feel relieved, or to give himself a reason to feel at ease.

"In that case, I'll go out with you to find it." Hua Gu said loudly.

When the brute bull heard this, he was a little reluctant, he didn't want to go out again, so he muttered, "Then what should I do?" ”

"You stay here, in case Laidi and Miss Ju'er come here to find us, we can take care of it." Hua Gu said a few words, stretched out her hand to the brute bull and said, "Give me your scimitar." ”

"What for?" The brute bull covered the scimitar on his waist and asked nervously, "You have a knife yourself." ”

"I have a knife, but the little brother doesn't, lend me a use, and come back and return it to you." Hua Gu turned her head to look at Wu Zhiyuan, who had already walked out of the broken temple.

"He's got a peachwood sword, what kind of scimitar do you want, huh...... You ......" The brute didn't speak, but he saw that Hua Gu's figure flashed, and one hand had already put on the scabbard of the scimitar at his waist, and he pulled it hard, and the scabbard was torn off together.

Hua Gu turned around and walked out, leaving the wild cow alone in the broken temple and scolding.

"Take this knife with you." Hua Gu caught up with Wu Zhiyuan, handed him the scimitar, and asked with a smile, "Who are you that Ju'er girl?" ”

"Friends." Wu Zhiyuan took the scimitar and replied casually without thinking. Ju'er is not a slave servant in his mind, her identity is equal to himself, to be precise, a friend.

"What about Moon Shadow?" Hua Gu smiled and asked again.

Wu Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, looked at Hua Gu, and didn't understand the purpose of his question, but Hua Gu could ask this kind of question, obviously she had captured something from Wu Zhiyuan's words and deeds. Moon Shadow Fuxian is the head of the Black Descending Gate, and Hua Gu is Moon Shadow's loyal assistant, if she knows about the relationship between herself and Moon Shadow, I don't know how she will react? Maybe it's closer to you, but it's not impossible to draw a knife around your neck.

After pondering for a moment, Wu Zhiyuan replied cautiously: "Very important friend." ”

With the addition of the word "very important", the position of Moon Shadow Fuxian in his mind was directly highlighted.

Hua Gu smiled slightly and didn't ask again.

When the two walked to the entrance of the street that runs through the north and south of Jinan City, Hua Gu patted Wu Zhiyuan's arm, the action was like the encouragement of the elders to the juniors, and she said in a harmonious voice: "The two of us are looking for it separately, no matter whether we find it or not after a stick of incense, we will meet here." ”

"Hmm." Wu Zhiyuan nodded.

"Be careful yourself." Hua Gu admonished, turned around and headed towards the east of the city.

Wu Zhiyuan looked at the several houses in front of him that were on fire, and heard the screams that were far away and near, as well as the crackling sound when they burned, and suddenly felt a hatred for Li Lanru's forces in his heart that he had never felt before, and this hatred was completely different from the hatred they had when they persecuted the Moon Shadow Fu Immortal. Wu Zhiyuan secretly determined that sooner or later he would dismantle this inhumane dark force.

Walking north along the street, Wu Zhiyuan observed as he walked, there were only a few dead bodies on the street, but there was not a single living person. It seems that this place has been ransacked by the Qing soldiers.

Wu Zhiyuan didn't know if Ju'er and Lai Di were really living on the streets, and he didn't know where they would hide if they were really in Jinan City, so he could only check around with luck.

When he walked to an east-west alley, Wu Zhiyuan deliberately went into the alley to check, and found no trace of Ju'er and Laidi, and he was about to turn out of the alley and continue to walk north along the street when he suddenly heard a woman's moan.

Moans can be divided into two kinds, happy moans and painful moans, it is obvious that the moans just now belong to the latter, Wu Zhiyuan suddenly stopped, listened carefully, and heard the woman let out a miserable scream.

This scream made Wu Zhiyuan identify the direction of the sound, and he walked to the gate of a house, and saw that the courtyard door was wide open, the oil lamp in the house was dim, and several figures were projected on the checkered windows covered with white paper. One of the figures shook as a burst of men's lewd laughter could be heard.

Wu Zhiyuan immediately understood what was going on, and suddenly his anger surged, he tied the peachwood sword to his back and pulled out the scimitar in his hand. Although this scimitar is not comparable to the Blood Shadow Demon Knife, it is also an extremely sharp weapon.

Wu Zhiyuan clenched the scimitar in his hand, quietly walked into the courtyard, walked through the courtyard and directly entered the main room, and when he arrived at the door, the obscene voices in it were heard more clearly, and one of the men laughed wildly: "Scream, scream!" Shout! As soon as the words fell, there was a crisp slap.

The woman whimpered, her pain palpable only in her voice.

Wu Zhiyuan walked to the door of the bedroom and saw at a glance that there were four people in the room, two of the four were wearing Manchu Yongzi military uniforms, and the other two were about twenty-four or five years old, a man and a woman, who were obviously the owners of this house.

At this time, a Qing soldier stood behind the man, the knife in his hand was horizontal in front of the man's throat, and the other Qing soldier pressed the woman down on the earthen kang, grasping the woman's naked legs with both hands, swinging back and forth at the waist, and laughing obscenely in his mouth.

"Look! Open your dog's eyes and take a closer look! Watch the official teach you how to be a man! Qing Bing, who held the man's neck with a knife, roared with a lewd smile.

The two of them had their backs to the bedroom door, so Wu Zhiyuan couldn't see the man's expression, but seeing his wife being abused, this kind of pain was not something ordinary people could imagine.

The man seemed to have no patience, let out a roar of rage, pushed away the knife in front of his neck, and shouted, "I will fight with you!" As he spoke, he rushed towards the Qing soldier on the earthen kang.
