Chapter 43: This sea of fire is her destination
"Childe!" Wei Cang and the others had already rushed to the door: "Are you okay?"
Mo Gongzi reached out and stroked the side of his neck, and a trace of blood was smeared on his fingertips.
It was Luo Qianhuai who had just withdrawn his sword and did it, the injury was extremely shallow, as soft as her voice, but it was to warn him that his life was only between her fingers.
In the firelight, the blood stain was clearly placed in front of everyone.
"Childe!" Wei Cang and the other guards knelt on the ground: "Leave this woman, there will be endless troubles." Please also ask Childe to decide! ”
Mo Gongzi lowered his eyes and was silent. He was aware of the concerns of his subordinates. A peerless master like Mrs. Luo either can't be offended, and once you offend, you must kill the killer, otherwise it will be difficult to escape the assassination of the other party at the ends of the world.
However, there is still a faint itch behind the ears, and the waist can still feel the slightest residual warmth.
Suddenly flashed in front of her, just in the courtyard, she ignored the crossbow around, calm and calm.
is obviously such a dangerous character, but he has a pair of innocent and clear eyes like a deer, which will always arouse the most instinctive desire of men, even if it is himself.
Compared with martial arts, this is the most terrifying thing about her. Although he didn't want to admit it, when he gave the order to fire a volley, he regretted it for the first time.
And seeing that she was finally unharmed, even if she was forced to coerce herself, her heart was still inexplicably light-hearted—for no reason, unreasonably light.
She really didn't hurt herself, except for this scratch that wasn't much of a wound. He knew her words were not to be trusted, but he couldn't help but want to believe them.
The soft petals of the lips like flowers, burned over the tips of the teeth and ears, will impress all the young people who are strong in blood and blood.
But he shouldn't have been included among those people.
He hides thousands of cliffs in his chest, steps on the mountain of corpses and a sea of blood under his feet, and carries the entrustment and will of countless people.
His life and body are not his own, where is he qualified to leave his life for this lady Luo who has already understood his position and identity?
Mo Gongzi raised his head, and all emotions were already in his eyes.
"Let's start a fire." He commanded lightly. The camp guards, who had been prepared for a long time, brought large barrels of fire oil and sprinkled them all over the perimeter of the house.
Torches were thrown up, and the flames jumped high, and with the help of the rising north wind, they soon raged to their heart's content, sweeping the entire house with dark red fireworks.
The crossbow bolts were never withdrawn, and they were even more prepared than before, pointing directly at the surroundings of the sea of fire.
The room beeped in the tongues of fire, moaning feebly to the point of collapsing, but not a single human voice could be heard.
This house is located in the southeast corner of Fu'anli, there are no neighbors around, in the dead of night, the north wind is strong, and it burns for most of the night, and it is not noticed by other people.
Until the fire weakened, the black smoke turned gray, and no one tried to break through.
"Childe, Mrs. Luo should be....... It won't come out. Wei Cang cautiously looked at his son-in-law's expression: "Do you need to find the remains and choose another place to bury them later?"
"Not necessarily." Mo Gongzi turned around and left: "Let's go." ”
That sea of fire is the destination she has chosen, and he will not interfere. and will forget her completely, as she wishes.
Luo Qianhuai didn't sleep for an hour before he was woken up by the noise outside.
She slipped back from the tunnel last night, and in order to save her life, she forgot to be afraid for a while, and lay back in the lead coffin by herself and pressed the bracket, all the way to Zhang Sheng's bed.
This bracket is what the system pressed when it came down before. When she came out of the coffin, she stepped on something hard under her feet, but when she looked closely, it was a leather bag, which contained a lot of finger-long jade chips, engraved with the heavenly and earthly branches, and symbols she did not recognize.
Luo Qianhuai doesn't have a hobby of robbing tombs, but this thing doesn't look like a funeral object, and he doesn't know what it does.
Out of curiosity, she grabbed the leather bag, took advantage of the fact that the small courtyard was empty, hurried back to her room, and quickly changed out of bloodstained clothes and shoes, quietly packed them, and waited for an opportunity to destroy them.
After doing all this, she fell asleep, as if only a moment had passed, and Huan'er, the handmaid of the Zhang family, shook her awake vigorously.
"Mrs. Luo!" Huan'er's voice was like fried beans, and the big news that happened at night was poured out clearly.
On the second watch, Zhang Lichang and his wife followed Li Fangshi and practiced in the small courtyard, the purpose of which was to find out the cause of their son's illness.
It's not that they don't believe in Luo Qianhuai's medical skills, but since the cause has not been found, and Na Li Fangshi has said it conclusively, saying that this is an evil disorder, so they would rather believe in it, and willingly spent a lot of money to hire him to get rid of it.
Luo Qianhuai pursed his lips. Zhang Sheng's illness was not the first day, and the Zhang family also found a lot of people to come to see it before, but no one could tell the reason at that time, but now that he saw that people had improved, he came up with an excuse to cheat money.
But all of this was destroyed by the rag monster that suddenly appeared.
"Immortal Li said, that cloth bag demon is a thousand-year-old demon in Yao Mountain, and the body is the sackcloth bag used by Jiang Ziya......."
"Alright." Luo Qianhuai interrupted her with her hand crutches.
She knows much more about the so-called Rag Bag Demon than she does: "Pick it up." ”
The important thing is actually nothing, that is, this puppet demon appeared in the Zhang family, but was frightened by Li Fangshi's boundless mana, and fled to the Dong family in a panic, killing a family of twenty-three, and setting a fire to destroy the corpse.
The Dong family's mansion was far away from other homes, and the winter night was cold and the north wind blew, so it was not until early in the morning that everyone found out about the tragedy.
Although Zhang Lichang is the biggest official in the book, he usually believes in Fangshi, so he simply reported the case to Taiping Township in accordance with the saying of "the monster is in the world, arson and extinguishes the family".
The township was shocked, and the township man in charge of the criminal case personally led people down to inspect that day, and soon found the mechanism in the lead coffin, and found the tunnel leading directly to the Dong family.
The townsman is not as good as Zhang Lichang, and he will believe that there are monsters in the world. Zhang Lichang's tunnel leads directly to the Dong family, which is already in a place of suspicion, but after the other party presented a large box, he decided that there was a Jiangyang thief who pretended to be a cloth bag demon and committed arson.
From beginning to end, no one doubted Luo Qianhuai's head. She is a delicate little lady, and she has cured Zhang Sheng's dementia, how can she be compared with a vicious murderer.
By the time the storm calmed down a few days later, the lead coffin had already been removed as evidence, and the deep hole in the ground had been filled. Zhang Sheng was already able to talk to people normally, Luo Qianhuai resigned again, and mentioned the marriage contract by the way, and sure enough, he got a satisfactory answer.
The Zhang family has seen the dawn of their son's recovery, so they naturally want to borrow the power of their grandfather's family to enter the government through the inspection system, and Luo Qianhuai, the eldest daughter of a widow, will certainly not enter the list of mates.
This was also in Luo Qianhuai's arms. It's just that at this time, she received a prompt from the system again:
"The best of both worlds, mission accomplished. Now evaluate the effectiveness of the implementation of this shortcut route. drops, the assessment is complete, and the total score is 76, and the evaluation is in the upper middle. ”
