After half an hour passed, there was still no one who came back to carry the body of the Supreme Daoist, Han Pingzhi, who had been sitting on the main seat as steady as Mount Tai, began to feel a little anxious in his heart, he was not worried that what Zhou Ming said was false, but what made him most uneasy was his previous colleagues.

Although Yang Shijun and the few white-clothed guards he brought with him have been firmly guarded and have not stepped out of the house for half a step, Han Pingzhi, who has been away from the white-clothed guard organization for a long time, is not sure if they have other ways to get in touch with the white-clothed guard organization outside.

After all, in terms of Bai Yiwei's style of doing things, while destroying the corpse of the Supreme Daoist, they would definitely not let go of a single living mouth.

He was so anxious that he couldn't sit still any longer, so he stood up and paced back and forth in the room, and the panic in his expression was also seen by others.

With the passage of time, Yang Shijun, who was originally sitting on pins and needles, became more and more calm, because he found that the atmosphere in the room was gradually wrong, Han Pingzhi's face was difficult to look at, and the others were even more solemn, without saying a word, only Zhou Zhou Ming still talked and laughed freely, as if he was using cynicism to hide the panic in his heart.

Seeing that those who were sent to run errands did not return for a long time, Yang Shijun's mood did not fluctuate at all, but he hoped that those people would never come back, and it was best to disappear with the corpse of the Supreme Daoist, so that he could save his life in a desperate situation, as for whether he could kill Zhou Ming or not, it didn't matter, after all, he was left in Qingshan, and he was not afraid of no firewood.

As long as his own people are still there, it will be easy to find an opportunity to retaliate against Zhou Ming in the future.

Like Han Pingzhi, the fathers-in-law who came to the palace were very anxious when they saw that this matter had not been resolved for a long time, after all, as servants in the palace, their duty was to serve the emperor closely, if they were out of the palace for too long, they would not be in a proper manner, not to mention that the emperor was still waiting for their news in the palace, in case the emperor was in a hurry, even if they brought back good news in the end, they would definitely be punished.

Zhou Zhou Ming sat on the chair, drinking tea leisurely, while secretly observing the performance of everyone, seeing that some of these people were in a hurry, and some were secretly proud, he couldn't help but smile in his heart.

This Lord Han can be regarded as a figure who has been in the officialdom for many years, and he is so undetermined at a critical moment, it seems that even if the two of us have a good relationship in the future, we can't expect him to do big things.

Just when Han Pingzhi and those fathers-in-law were waiting anxiously, a messenger from the yamen of the General Affairs Office hurriedly came in to report: "Back to Lord Han, the person sent to carry the body has returned, and it is at the gate of the yamen." ”

When the people heard this, they all stood up.

Han Pingzhi immediately ordered: "Let them come in quickly, I have something important to ask them." ”

"Yes." The messenger hurriedly withdrew.

A moment later, several of the officials who had just been sent out were brought in.

Before they were sent out just now, they were all full of vigor and energy, but only about half an hour later, when they returned to the yamen, they were like a different person.

Each of them had painful expressions on their faces, and some of them even after returning to the yamen, they still showed that they wanted to vomit, which showed how much torture they had suffered when carrying the corpse of the Supreme Daoist just now.

"Did you bring the body back?" Han Pingzhi didn't care about their safety at all, and immediately asked a question that he was most concerned about.

Several officials nodded at the same time, and one of the leaders clasped his fists and said weakly: "Back to Lord Han, our brothers finally lived up to your trust, and we finally brought back that corpse after a lot of hard work." ”

Yang Shijun, who was standing on the side and paying attention to the progress of the situation, originally saw these officials languishing one by one, thinking that their mission had failed, and he was secretly happy in his heart, thinking that he had been saved this time.

When he heard them say that they had brought the corpse back, Yang Shijun was like five thunderbolts, and the whole person stood on the spot, stunned for a moment, and then sat on the chair dejectedly, unable to say a word for a long time, and didn't even move his eyes.

If it were an ordinary person, if they had suffered such a blow, they might be scared to death all of a sudden, because once these people brought back the body of the Supreme Daoist, it would be equivalent to pronouncing Yang Shijun's death sentence in disguise.

When the four white-clothed guards saw Yang Shijun's appearance, not only did they not have the slightest sympathy and concern, but they were secretly happy in their hearts, they all felt that Yang Shijun deserved it, and they couldn't blame others.

After several officials who had finished their errands returned to business, they immediately walked in front of Zhou Ming, and then knelt down without warning and kowtowed to Zhou Ming a few times.

Everyone present was stunned and didn't understand what was going on.

Zhou Zhou Ming hurriedly leaned over to help the crowd, and at the same time said with a puzzled expression: "Brothers, why is this?" ”

One of these people with the most ugly face spoke: "Lord Zhou, our great kindness and virtue are unforgettable."

If it weren't for the fact that you reminded us how dangerous things were before leaving, and asked us to make some temporary protective preparations, otherwise, maybe our brothers would have confessed there. ”

Another person also hurriedly picked up the words and said, "To tell you the truth, before we went, we really didn't imagine that the scene there would be so shocking.

The cowardly, not smoked to death, are also scared to death. ”

Zhou Ming hurriedly asked, "Did you see it?" ”

Those officials 1510 told the whole process of going on an errand just now.

It turned out that when these officials set out from the yamen of the general mansion, they didn't take Zhou Ming's reminder seriously, and even felt that Zhou Ming's words were alarmist, and the purpose was to exaggerate their own merits and make the court pay more attention to themselves.

But when they came to the grove according to Zhou Ming's instructions, they were completely dumbfounded, because before they entered the grove, they had already smelled a foul smell.

The smell is not a stinking smell, nor is it a rotten smell, it is a rare and unpleasant smell in the world, and as long as the nose smells a little, it is disgusting.

Standing in front of the woods, these officials did not dare to go in, because of the great feeling of nausea, which made them vomit wildly, until they vomited all the food they had eaten last night, they stopped vomiting, and walked into the grove with difficulty.

The scene in the grove is even more shocking, although the sky has been bright, but the woods are still very dark, the ground is full of small animals that have just died, their deaths are very terrifying, all of them are bleeding and blackened, and they are poisoned to death.

Seeing this miserable scene, all the officials were frightened, and a few of them were so timid that they even wanted to flee back directly.

It was only then that they realized that what Zhou Ming had reminded them of was true, and they hurriedly used some protective equipment, not daring to come into contact with anything in the woods.

After a careful search in the woods, they finally found the body of the Supreme Daoist, at this time the body of the Supreme Daoist had completely turned black, the clothes on his body were all rotten, and his limbs were completely shriveled, just like a dried corpse, and the only thing that was slightly better preserved was the head and the face.

Because the scene was too terrifying, these officials did not dare to look at it more, and they immediately prepared to use branches and wood to move the body of the Supreme Daoist to a special carrying tool, and then carry it back.

But what they never expected was that the branches and wood they were using, as soon as they came into contact with the corpse of the Supreme Daoist, began to decay rapidly from the end, and soon turned into a pile of wood slag.

Seeing this scene, these people were all taken aback, and some of them were even so frightened that they couldn't possess their bodies, because they all knew in their hearts that if Zhou Ming hadn't specially reminded them before they came, they would have already used their hands to carry the Supreme Daoist at this time, and by that time, it would not be those wood and branches that would rot, but their hands and arms.

Everyone who picked up a life was extremely grateful to Zhou Ming in their hearts, and even regarded him as a reborn parent.

Seeing that the wood in the woods was useless, in desperation, these servants could only use their own knives to move the corpses of the Supreme Daoist little by little.

After moving the body of the Supreme Daoist to the special carrying tool, these people threw away all their matching knives, although these knives did not change on the surface, they all knew in their hearts that the knives were already highly poisonous.

After all this work was done, they covered the whole body with a cover that they had prepared in advance, so as to avoid the horrific sight and to prevent the corpse from continuing to emit poison.

On the way back, they were cautious, for fear of a little accident, whenever they encountered a crowded place, they walked around, after all, if there was an accident in a crowded place, then there would be too many dead and injured people, and then they would not only not take credit, but would be guilty of it.

After hearing all this, everyone present sighed, and they admired Zhou Ming even more from the bottom of their hearts, because from the scenes described by those officials, they could imagine how dangerous Zhou Ming was when he fought against the Supreme Daoist, if it wasn't for his wit and luck, it was likely that he would be lying in the woods.

As soon as he heard that those officials had completed the task excellently, Zhou Zhou Ming suddenly put his heart in his stomach, he glanced at Yang Shijun, who was stunned, and his mood was extremely comfortable, and then he just had to wait patiently.

Han Pingzhi was an impatient, and after listening to the narration of the officials, he hurriedly said: "Quick, quickly bring up the body of the Supreme Daoist, and the official will personally verify the body." ”

Before the words fell, the officials who had just finished their errands all looked embarrassed and waved their hands at Han Pingzhi.
