Chapter Seventy-Six: The Truth
The general's mansion in Guwu City has long ceased to be a pure general's mansion.
The government and government of Guwu City have long existed in name only.
Although the military sent someone to come, the military still needed a person in charge to communicate with the people in the village, and this person should have been the old village chief, that is, his father, and the old village chief could not escape, so this task fell to Gou Buji.
He was not conscientious and responsible, and handled it in an orderly manner, and the people in the military also appreciated him, and the guards relaxed their vigilance against him as the days went by.
However, one day, when he overheard a sergeant complaining that the court's disaster relief money and the soldiers' consolation money would not be sent, he became suspicious and paid special attention to this matter.
Later, it was discovered that the disaster had developed further, and a teenager came to the military headquarters and took over everything. He led by example, leading the young and middle-aged people in the village to actively dredge the channels and divert the flow to other places, and the old and young women and children continued to hide in the mountains, and they were grateful to him, regarded him as a new parent, and were eager to treat him with all their hearts.
Later, the people in the village wanted to invite the young man as a guest, but they didn't go to look for him, but they didn't find him, but they accidentally turned over a letter, which was a congratulatory letter, which congratulated Brother Qin on his success, and after reading the letter, he left uneasy.
That night, he organized a group of people and horses, and used the villagers to get the young man drunk, and he led the twenty-six people in the village to escape, and they escaped with only one purpose, that is, to tell the world that they had all been deceived, and what happened in Guwu City was not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster!
The gap in the dam was something they had been plotting for a long time.
What they want is money, food, and people's compassion.
Li Yiwan and Li Yu left with a heavy heart.
"You say, do their people who made this gap have to die?" Li Yiwan asked sluggishly, "Then you said that when this gap comes out, how many people will have to be drowned?" I was so excited that I didn't dare to ask them how many people had died in their village. ”
Li Yu gently patted Li Yiwan's shoulder, "Yiwan is not afraid, I am here." ”
"When I think of the powerlessness and the struggle, and the despair of being swept up in the flood, if it were me, I... I really don't know what to do. Li Yiwan grabbed Li Yu's sleeve, "How are you watery?" ”
"Yiwan, I'm very water-based, don't worry." Li Yu clenched Li Yiwan's hand, "Don't be afraid, these people are full of evil, I will let them get the retribution they deserve, but now we need to collect evidence." He would take us to where their village was, and we took the evidence, and none of them could escape. ”
"Hmm." Li Yiwan nodded, "Without further ado, let's set off now." ”
"Wait, I still have something to deal with, wait for tomorrow." Li Yu hugged Li Yiwanheng to the bed, like a baby, and said softly, "Yiwan, go to sleep." ”
Li Yiwan closed her eyes.
When Li Yu left, Li Yiwan opened her eyes and grabbed his hand, "My family, and yours, this kind of thing won't happen, right?" I'm afraid, Yifeng, please Wandu is still young, they don't know how to water, and I didn't teach them escape skills, I'm too unqualified, I'm not a good sister, Li Yu. ”
"Yiwan, don't worry, no, you have to have faith in your father and my father-in-law. Okay, good, go to sleep, I'll come as soon as I go. Li Yu put Li Yiwan's hand back into the quilt, "Don't think so much, sleep well." ”
Li Yiwan was very uneasy, her eyes were full of panic and uneasiness, full of tears, Li Yu was a little unbearable, but thinking of what she was going to do, she still left, but she wiped away her tears for Li Yiwan before leaving, "I'll be back soon." ”
Li Yu disappeared from Li Yiwan's sight.
Li Yiwan only felt panicked in her heart, couldn't breathe well, and was faintly uneasy, looking at the direction where Li Yu disappeared, hesitated again and again, and quietly went out.
It's just that as soon as he went out, he remembered that he was still in the room, Li Yiwan's heart was pounding, something bad happened, I hope he is still there.
Li Yiwan hurried back and pushed open the door of the room, which was empty.
Li Yi stomped his feet angrily, turned around and walked out of the inn, and went straight to the General's Mansion, except for the General's Mansion, no one was interested in Gou.
Li Yiwan galloped all the way, only hating that she was not good at learning light skills, and she was wasting time on the road at this time.
Finally, when she arrived at the General's Mansion, Li Yiwan quietly came to the wall and hesitated.
She didn't know anything about the General's Mansion.
What if I get caught?
Li Yiwan was anxious, and finally stomped her feet angrily and hid in a tree outside the general's mansion. Li Yu must have come here too, just answer it outside.
Li Yiwan warned herself over and over again on the tree not to be impulsive and believed Li Yu, but the sweat in her palms became more and more.
Finally, under the moonlight, a group of people entered the general's mansion with one person.
Reluctant to do so!
Li Yiwan concentrated and calmed down.
If there is movement, it's okay, but I'm afraid that there will be no movement.
Li Yiwan waited and watched.
In the general's mansion, Li Yu was carefully looking at the person in the room, and the light imprinted the figure of the person on the doors and windows, and Li Yu watched quietly. Fingers rubbing the dart. Darts are ordinary weapons, which are ordinary darts that can no longer be ordinary.
In the room sat the young general.
"You've been watching it for so long, why don't you do it?" The young man's clear voice came from the room, "If you don't plan to do it, why don't you come in and have a few drinks?" ”
Li Yu thought for a moment and put away the darts. Walked into the room.
On the table, two cups of tea have been poured, and the temperature is just right.
"You know I'm back." Li Yu is talking about declarative sentences.
"Thanks to the love of the Underworld." The young man smiled shyly, not at all like he was hearty and open-minded on the horse that day, but a little like an ordinary brother, "Miss Yiwan is very beautiful." ”
Li Yu uncovered the mask on his face, lifted the mask again, and threw it on the table depressedly, "Why can't you be stupid, I don't want you to know your identity, but I can't leave Yiwan." ”
"That's why I'm not afraid of you. You are strong. The young man smiled shyly again, "Hades and Miss Yiwan are a good couple, bless you." ”
"If it's really a blessing to us, I want to know about the gap in the dam of Guwu City, how about letting me and her go back as soon as possible and live a life of only envying mandarin ducks and not immortals?"
"The dam has been in disrepair for a long time, and the relevant officials have neglected their duties, and they have been dismissed and investigated." The smile on the boy's face never faded. "Make a friend, my name is Qin Qingming."
"Li Yu."
The two nodded to each other, and they knew each other.
"Li Yu, are you planning to meddle in this matter?" Qin Qingming handed the tea to Li Yu, "If you don't mind, can I call you Brother Li?" ”
"Yes, Qingming." Li Yu smiled back, "If I don't care, I'm afraid that this life will be spent in regret." ”
"How do you know I'm doing the wrong thing?" Qin Qingming stood up, "Miss Yiwan grew up in the village since she was a child, she didn't learn power, and later she returned to the Li Mansion, Li Mu is a loyal person, Miss Yiwan sees shallowly, and she doesn't know that people's hearts are sinister, if you can't even see through the underworld, then you don't deserve my Brother Li." Qin Qingming said it righteously.
Li Yu was unmoved, "Half a month ago, as far as I know, because of this accident, more than 300 people went missing, one died more than 500 people, destroyed nearly 1,000 acres of fertile land, and killed and injured tens of thousands. Qingming, you've also been there, and you're indifferent to those people at all? I'm interested in what you're doing for a good or bad purpose, but I'm sure there must be other ways to achieve your ends, so why do you have to choose such a means? ”
"Brother Li, that's because they deserve to die." Qin Qingming still smiled shyly, as usual, his tone and tone did not change at all, "I know very well what I am doing, I have my own difficulties, I hope that Brother Li will not interfere in this matter, go back to your Kyoto, go back to your academy,"
"Ten thousand and I won't go back until this matter is settled." Li Yu slapped the table and got up, and there was the sound of drawing his sword out of its sheath around him.
Qin Qingming waved his hand, and those people in the dark retreated. "Brother Li, if you really think about them, you might as well stop it, otherwise there will only be more people who die, and then I am afraid that this excess debt will be borne by Brother Li."
Li Yu didn't speak.
"Brother Li, since ancient times, whenever there is a ghost, the world will surely usher in troubled times. I really admire the martial arts of the underworld, but the previous underworld is alone, so that he can save the building from the traces of the collapse, bear the heavy responsibility that others can't bear, and finally protect my Wu country. However, Brother Li, you are different, you have people you care about, your father, and Miss Yiwan, these are your weaknesses. You're not strong enough. Brother Li, think about them, if one day in the future, your enemies threaten you with your family's lives, what will you do, I believe that Brother Li will not hesitate to exchange yourself for your family, and Miss Yiwan will not. ”
Li Yu was silent.
"Brother Li, go back and think about it. You are welcome to come back tomorrow. Qin Qingming still had that shy smile, but the words he said made people feel cold in June.
"Right now, I'm talking to you about the dam, whether it's because it's in disrepair, or someone deliberately sabotaged it, if you want to leave no traces, unless you destroy the entire dam, then Guwu City probably won't exist." Li Yu said in a deep voice, "It's too late to stop now, you actively deal with the aftermath and help those displaced people rebuild their homes..."
Qin Qingming interrupted him, "I will naturally do these things, and I have already started to do them. ”
"You're doing it?! You're withholding food, you're withholding money, you're ... What have you done for them? Li Yu grabbed Qin Qingming's collar, "You really wasted the word Qingming that your father gave you!" ”
