Chapter 20: Cruel Methods
The execution ground is located in the middle of the city of Deathwater.
This ancient building has a long history and is said to have existed with the city of Lost Water, which is still unknown for thousands of years, and countless souls have died here.
In order to avenge the flood chaos, Hong Tiande made a huge momentum, which alarmed the whole city up and down.
From the dignitaries to the peddlers and pawns, they are all talking about this matter.
Hong Yu walked along the way, and from time to time he heard people talking about it......
"This Hong Tiande's methods are too bloody, it is said that he has arrested all the guys who have had conflicts with Hong Chao in the past four or five months!"
"What's the point of arresting? I heard that Hong Tiande is desperate to find out the murderer this time, and anyone who is suspicious will be killed to pay tribute to his grandson. ”
"Isn't he afraid of causing public outrage by doing this?"
"Public indignation, who can take him in Deathwater City, how about the Hong family?"
Crowded in the crowd, Hong Yu's eyes fell on the solemn Xingtai.
Eighteen strong men who were tied up by the five flowers were bound to the torture pillar of Xingtai, each with a strong unwillingness and fear of death on their faces, including some martial arts masters, hunters of the underground alliance, merchants and civilians, and even a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy.
Hong Yu frowned and asked the old man beside him, "Old man, what's the matter with that child?"
"Alas, what a sin to say. The child was hit by a flood horse a few days ago, and his father stepped forward to theorize, but was beaten to death by the flood people. Now only this little doll is left, and as a result, Hong Chao died, and the Hong family elder said that anyone who has had a conflict with Hong Chao is a suspect......" the old man sighed.
"What?"
Hong Yu felt a resentment in his chest, and he was extremely aggrieved and angry.
You hit someone in a flood, and instead of apologizing, you beat someone's father to death. This is not enough, in the end, such a helpless teenager was arrested as a suspect?
Hong Yu looked at the young man and found that his eyes were clear, and there was no fear in his dark eyes, only a thick hatred.
"These people are all because I ......," Hong Yu thought to himself.
"No, I can't let them die in vain. ”
Hong Yu gritted his teeth, and his mind began to come alive, thinking about how to save these innocent people.
After thinking about it, he realized that unless he stood up and admitted that he was the murderer of the flood chaos, there was no way to save them.
But if he comes forward to admit his identity, he will not be able to escape Hong Tiande's vicious killer.
On one side is the condemnation of conscience.
On the one hand, there is a threat to life.
Hong Yu couldn't help but hesitate.
At this moment, Hong Tiande, who was sitting on the high platform, suddenly waved his palm, and the executioner on the Xingtai led the way and waved his big knife with a flickering cold light. Under the splash of blood, a human head flew up, it was a well-known businessman. It is said that not long ago, Hong Chao forcibly seized a family heirloom in his shop, and there was a conflict, so he was implicated in a different place.
The air was filled with the pungent smell of blood, and Hong Yu's eyes turned red.
On the high platform, Hong Tiande said coldly: "This person has a conflict with my grandson Hong Chao, and he is suspected of murder." There are more than ten people on this Xingtai, all of whom are suspected of killing my grandson. Today, I, Hong Tiande, am here to avenge the chaos for the heavens. I know that there may not be a murderer among them, but if the real murderer does not appear for a day, the old man will not let go of the mistake and carry out the execution to the end. The murderer of my grandson, if you still have a conscience, show up, don't kill other innocent people. ”
Hong Tiande's words are awe-inspiring, and he does the right thing for heaven.
The tens of thousands of people watching from the execution ground scoffed, eager to spit on him a few spit stars.
Hong Yu's shoulders trembled, and his anger was extreme.
"This old dog, who cares about human life, dares to flaunt himself for Tianxingdao, which is really shameless to the extreme. Hong Yu clenched his fists, and as he saw the executioner walking towards the young man, he couldn't hold back any longer, and was ready to step forward.
At this moment, the young man with resentful eyes suddenly let out a bitter laugh.
At a young age, the laughter of the weak skinny body is like a cold winter wind. After hearing him laugh, he looked at Hong Tiande on the high platform with a stubborn face: "Old dog, your grandson has done a lot of evil, and he is innocent of death." The master only hated that he didn't have that ability, so he could only watch him kill my father, but he didn't have the strength to take revenge with his own hands. Now that he is finally dead, this is called acting for the heavens, and this is called the sky has eyes. ”
"The hero who slew that beast of the Flood Rebellion, I thank you for avenging my father's blood. This kindness is unrequited in this life, and if there is a chance in the next life, he is willing to be a cow and a horse for you. The young man laughed and said sharply, "Hong Tiande, you old dog wait." If you do too much injustice, you will kill yourself, and one day, that hero will avenge us!"
"Look for death. ”
was scolded as an old dog one after another, Hong Tiande's eyes shot out an angry cold light, and with a flick of his fingers, a sharp finger shot out.
"Poof!"
The finger strength did not enter the young man's body, the young man's body stiffened, and then the whole body began to swell, and the inch by inch cracked blood lines made him instantly turn into a bloody man, but I was afraid that it would not take a few breaths to make him explode and die. But the young man was not afraid, his mouth was gushing with boiling blood, and his immature voice was chilling: "Hahaha, old dog, the master died at your hands today." In the future, that hero will avenge me!"
"Boom!"
As soon as the words fell, the young man's body burst open, and there was no corpse.
"Kill them all!"
Hong Tiande waved his sleeves and floated away.
He originally wanted to use this method to force the secret real murderer to show up, but now after the teenager's mixing, even if the real murderer is at the scene, most of them will not appear, and naturally he will not waste any more time.
The executioner swung the broadsword one after another, and more than a dozen human heads fell to the ground.
Between heaven and earth, there are more than a dozen unjust souls.
Hong Yu stood in the crowd, feeling that it was a little difficult to breathe, his fists were clenched, and his ten fingernails dived deep into his palms without knowing it. A moment earlier, he had decided to show up and confess his identity, but the boy's words deeply shocked him and dispelled the impulsive thoughts.
With Hong Tiande's ruthlessness, even if he showed up, he couldn't save them.
Instead of sacrificing in vain, it is better to work hard, and in the future, the old dog will be bloody and avenge them.
"Don't worry, one day, I will avenge you by slashing this old dog Hong Tiande. ”
Just as Hong Yu was about to turn around and leave, a small voice suddenly came from his body: "Hong Yu, you wait first!"
"Huh?"
Hong Yu paused.
These days, I have also tried to contact Xiao Budian, but this guy doesn't care about himself at all. It was strange to hear him suddenly appear now.
Xiao Budian said lightly: "Hong Yu, find a way to get that young man's body." ”
"What?"
Hong Yu was stunned.
Xiao Bu nodded: "Don't ask so much, I have a way to let him continue to live in another way." However, the premise is that you must obtain his flesh and blood corpse, and you must break through to the Earth Spirit Realm to open the first layer of the Xuantian Tower within a month. Otherwise, everything is in vain. ”
Hong Yu's heart was shocked.
Another way to live?
He was impressed by the powerful resentment of the young man before he died, and the cynical monstrous hatred of the sunny boy who was supposed to be in the mood for love. For the death of the young man, Hong Yu is full of self-blame and powerlessness, if he can continue to live, Hong Yu is naturally willing to see it.
As for breaking through the Earth Spirit Realm in a month, although it is difficult, it is not hopeless.
He nodded, "I see." ”
It is not difficult to get the corpse from the execution ground, but it is difficult to save it This time, Hong Tiande was determined to show his iron-blooded methods, even though these people were dead, he still had to hang their corpses for public display. Fortunately, the young man's body was not complete, and even the guards at the execution ground were unwilling to take care of it, and Hong Yu spent a hundred gold coins to bribe and then got the young man's body.
"What should I do next?" asked Hong Yu.
"Don't call me small, call me Lord Tashen. ”
Xiao Budian muttered a few words of dissatisfaction, and said, "You release the Xuantian Tower, and I will collect his corpse in it." During this month, you'll have to break through the Terrain realm and get your hands on the following list. Otherwise, even I wouldn't be able to save him. ”
Hong Yu glanced at the list in his mind, and was speechless for a while: "Three-Eyed Dragon Whisker Grass, Sun Moon Flower Lotus, Millennial Shou Wu, and a Complete Body of a Second-Order Desolate Beast?"
"It's none of my business, okay, I'm going to deal with his body, as for the rest of the things, you can take care of it yourself!"
"This thing......
Hong Yu pursed his lips sullenly, shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I can only go to the underground alliance to try my luck." ”
Shaking his head, Hong Yu rode his horse towards his home.
When I got home, I pushed the door and entered: "Yaoyao, I'm back!"
Hong Yu shouted, and went to the well to get a basin of water to wash his face. When he washed his face, he still didn't see Yun Mengyao come out, and he couldn't help frowning: "Aren't you at home?" But no, she doesn't need to learn embroidery today. ”
"Uh-huh......"
Hong Yu's ears moved, and he heard a low groan of pain coming from inside the room.
"Not good!"
Hong Yu's face changed.
One dropped the scoop in his hand and ran in three steps and two steps towards the back room.
Push the door in.
I saw that in the house, in a huge bathtub, a young girl was lying in the warm bathtub.
But Hong Yu didn't have the slightest heart to pay attention to these, he found that Yun Mengyao's lips were purple and black, and a faint layer of bruises appeared all over his body, and his delicate body was trembling uncontrollably.
Hong Yu's expression changed slightly......
"Damn, Yaoyao is sick!"
